[QUOTE=1BadLT1]i think we should all pick the same car, get the sales dudes name, request him, and start to waste is time on five dollar offers less than the asking price, funny if ya got 100 people emailing on the same car and undercutting each other by 5 bucks. just an evil thought. [/QUOTE]

Ok, now TUX has me curious.   Which one was it?     We know it's RED....

[QUOTE=Nopolis] I got a call from the owner. I have talked with him once before and he was very helpful and reasonable - he has apologized for his sales manager. The sales manager apparently thought he had me in the bag and was counting on the sale. I am not sure how he came to that conclusion, but if he genuinely believed it I could understand a little frustration - but not being 1/2 step from being totally postal!!!

Otay, ya'll...ya'll kin stop pestering th poor guy! Nopolis did talk to da owner, and got an appology from him. Let it go...breath...

Few things..

I am on the fence on this one. I agree with Kebo's comment above. However, I think a car enthusiat forum IS the approriate place for a member to share a bad experience. One has to be sure to keep his comments factual. Beyond that criteria, I think the initial post was appropriate.

I want to clarify that I was kidding and in no means had any intentions of sending the merchant e-mails concerning their business practices.

I do however believe that by the 5th amendment that myself or any others have the right to speak their piece about the business practice displayed by this fellow. It was not meant to be slanderous but rather was a statement of fact.

All that being said I still want ta know which one o dem dadburn cars all of da fuss was about! Tuxblacray2007-04-10 14:58:30

In my opinion, asking for a 5% discount from the asking price is very conserative and certainly no reason to warrant such a reply from a salesman. When I bought my 66 from ProTeam, I offered them 15% below their asking price and they came back with a 10% discount.

I agree with Kebo and Ranger. I think the original post was appropiate but disagree as to other members getting involved with emails to the dealer. I think Nopolis took appropiate action by bringing this situation to the owner and that salesman will probably be selling used Hondas in the near future.

Dont get me wrong, the orig post is 100% appropriate.  A 5% disc is well within margins..  Me, I'd call the boss offer 11% under and take 9%...  You never know...
