Default Re: "New" & like new SRT6's are Disappearing on eBay, Autotrader & Cars.com

I bought mine in Austin for $1,500 less after driving there from Bonham. I was ready to buy a black SRT-6 with 12k miles from Bonham after talking with Mary about the car thru the phone. But when I got there, I learned from the disclosure that the car has been in a hail damaged and when I looked at the car it still has dings in the hood!

I tried to re-negotiate with the price since it should have depreciated more because of the hail damage history but they won't even lower their price. The sales rep then gave me to John (salesman of the year) to do the hustle with me. They're probably thinking that I'm trapped there after driving 21/2 hours from Tyler and will give up from their schemes. So, I called an Austin dealership and I asked them if they can bring their price down. The sales rep gave me a price $1,500 less than Bonham with 500 miles on it and $15,500 for my trade with the red blaze '04 Limited.

I have to drive for 4 hours to get to Austin on time but it's worth the drive! Heck, nobody pays me $1,500 in 4 hours of work anyway!
