i'm lucky. living in the Bay area, i cant swing a dead cat by the tail and not hit a dealership selling the car of my choice.

i've bought a couple of new cars. i always used the companies main website to send out an email to the local shops. i lead off saying i hate the dealership experience and will walk out the door if: list your peeves here.

i ask for a quote and tell them i am serious..if they have what i want, at the my price, and pending test drive..the deal is done.

it has worked both times!! i get a "Best" price, that has both been better than i was going to go..i call and tell them i am on my way. done.

now i dont understand why it takes so many hours to buy one..they should serve food.
