That's about as useful as the forum customer service reps that copy and paste the same "bring it to the dealer" whenever somebody has a problem. You can probably draw a lot of potential buyers but you at least need to act like you want to help. I'm sure some customers just say OKAY and run down but in a sales position you want more, more, more. I don't know.
In the age of the internet I can see zero reasons why you would have to go through the torture and humiliation of the "Dealer Show," with the salesman marching back and forth to consult with the manager (sitting higher than all the serfs on the selling floor) to run your latest offer by him so he can come back with a forlorn look on his face to tell you that they "won't make any $ if they sell it at your price point." If a dealer won't give me a quote online including expenses mapped out I go to a different one, end story.
Right. Walking into a dealership is a shitshow that nobody needs in this day and age. Selling cars isn't easy these days but the internet can help you earn more if you know how to use it. This is constructive criticism by the way.
Check out this post, it has a full chart with Money Factor and residual!
They've already said they'll give you 7% off or this is just what you're hoping? That's a really good deal. I would actually go ahead and buy one for that price and not be worried about the missing features in the US cause that's a great deal.
This is where I will need to be to drive the car home.
Ah ok. I don't foresee you getting it then lol. At least, not this early in the game. Good luck though, that would be awesome if so.
His last comment sounds like a car salesman being a car salesman, which he is of course.It's funny how nearly identical your target numbers are to mine. The exception is that I'm going for the AWD GT2. My dealer ran lease numbers for me on Saturday after my test drive and it was $760/mo.!! I told them I'd be willing to pay $1500 in drive-off costs, and might even be willing to drop down to 10k miles, but they would have to do the rest of the legwork to get the lease payment to under $600. Doesn't sound like its possible right now, but maybe it will be a little further down the line.
My dealer also told me that Kia is only shipping about 1000 GT2s to the US for ALL of 2018, and so he is not expecting there to be any negotiating room on those trim levels all year due to limited availability. I'm not sure how much truth there is to that. Maybe some truth, but mostly I think he is just trying to get me to bite now.
Keep us updated if you have success please! I could use your deal as some firepower in negotiating my deal
Man, if that is true, then it might be much harder to get a better deal in the future as far as negotiating goes. Hopefully the lease deals will at least improve. Maybe they'll introduce a lower MF or more lease cash as the year goes on.
It probably won't. And then they'll lower the price. Just got to give it some time.
I think if we give them some time they'll improve the deals. I'm with you though. The residual and MF are killers are on this vehicle. I hope to see the MF and lease cash improve.
Me too.If the Q60 had ventilated seats, Android Auto, heads up display. I would have gotten it already.
