Dealership Sales Review
I went here with my girlfriend when we were looking to buy her a new car. Found a Trailblazer that we liked but because we had done our research knew that the sticker price was way more than at other places. Mentioned this to the salesman and he totally ignored me. He kept going through his spiel about financing and trade-ins. I had to flat out tell him that we would not talk about the other details until he gave me a reasonable offer on the price. He took us inside and sat us down in his office until he could talk to his manager about how low he could go on the price. 15 minutes later another man came in and wanted to talk about the trade in. Told him that we would not talk about trade-ins until we got a price. Another 10 minutes of twiddling our thumbs until I told my girlfriend to wait in the car and had to track down the salesman. He finally came back with a price that was still 4-5 thousand more than other dealerships for the exact same car. I told him that was ridiculous and wanted a real offer. He said that he couldn't talk about price until he factored in trade-in and financing. He said, "We can't go further with this deal unless you are serious about buying this car. It sounds like you are price shopping at all the dealerships." OF COURSE I'm price shopping. I told him this and he stuck his hand out and said we were done then. I could tell he didn't want to deal with me unless he could rip me off. What kind of informed consumer would buy a car without going to other places and making sure they got a good deal. I have no problem with a car dealership and a salesman making money but I do not like getting ripped off. A good car buying process is one where everyone is happy. Do not waste your time going here. Their whole sales process is geared toward getting the most cash out of you as possible.
