My cousin has been a car salesman for years. I bought a car from him and he tried to skrew me! I had to watch him like a hawk. I just think there should be one price.... the dealership's best price. I can get them to drop thousands off the price. Is that fair? I have nothing against dealerships making money on a deal. But to make thousands of extra dollars off someone is what I consider "taking advantage". Not sure how some car salesman sleep at night!
I bought my crossfire... I asked for a deal on a trade in. We agreed over the phone after I visited the dealership. I drove all the way in to pick it up and they altered the deal on me. I simply walked out the door and found messages at home. Then they finally agreed to accept the offer (for real this time). Meanwhile they tell me they will charge 600 for some tax I never even heard of. I argued with them and they agreed to remove it from the price. I ended up finding another base coupe at another dealership. Less money and better financing with no hidden fees. The original dealership messed around with me too long and lost a deal. They could have closed it if they were honest and did the deal that we both agreed on. Now you tell me if car salesman are honest.... not all are honest! You may be... but not all of them. They give you a bad name.
