Posts Tagged ‘Perfect Credit’
I believe I may be a car salesperson’s worst nightmare.
By the time I arrive at the lot, I will already have financing lined up (through my credit union, which offered me a low rate, because my credit score is a near-perfect 796).
I know exactly what model, make and color of car I want, and plan to order from the factory because no local dealers have a car with my exact specifications. I will walk away if the dealer tries to sell me a car off their lot.
I plan to summarily & firmly reject all offers of dealer financing, as well as extras such as extended warranty, rustproofing crap, Lojack, etc,,
If the dealer makes me put a deposit on a factory-ordered car, I will, but only if the dealer guarantees (in writing) that it’s fully refundable.
Furthermore, I’m a cynical, mistrustful, Edmunds-spouting jerk. I am sure the dealer won’t be able to ***** me, but I am wondering how they will treat me in return for my toughness?
(no offense to any car salesperson reading this)
To the first responder (Brutally Honest). Thanks for your answer, it’s very thoughtful. I can’t pick a Best Answer yet (too early) but let me just add that I do intend to purchase Lo-jack for sure. I just don’t want to purchase it from the dealer.
