The thing that we laughed about on the way home was our salesman's comment about price. We showed him the build list we had and we went over the features. Then I asked the loaded question "OK what about the price" Of course we want to pay a dollar and they want double the sticker. We have to come to a final price. He started in on a bit about how some customers come is and fight for every dollar and are usually unhappy people. The people that pay sticker are all happy in life and laid back. I nodded and then showed him the firm price offer I had from the Dallas dealer. It was just under 3 grand less than sticker. Then he did the old "let me talk to the manager" routine and came back a few minutes later and said OK, he will match that.
SCORE!
Just the round trip to Park Place was not something I wanted to contemplate. It is near the airport and has heavy traffic. It is a good location for a dealer, just not convenient for us.
We placed the deposit and drove home. I did drive the 911 and it was noticed. The sales manager is a nice guy but I think his mom may have to drive him to work, I guess he has to be 21 to sign contracts so maybe he does drive.
Dang he is a puppy. I was just happy he decided to take our offer on the first round.
