Georgetown TX experience.
Had a funny thing happen today.
Barret Mitsu in Georgetown TX, sales team sucked major booty. First they totally ignored me and then proceeded to treat me like dirt. I have had better sales experience at Best Buy. They are misleading and misrepresenting in everyway. For example, I heard the 0/0/0 till 2004 ad with the EVO in it, and asked them about it. Well, as expected, they said not true, and then I pointed to the card board ad sitting on top the EVO. So it turns out, just because the ad is on the car's roof, doesn't mean it applies to the car below. And that was just the start. They tried the old "only 4500" car sale scare tactic on me, but when I mentioned next year they said when they are gone, that's it. Also the sales manager didn't even want to negotiate with me. Told him I would do 1k over right then and he laughed at me and called me crazy. Told me they were selling for 12k over in some places. Please, try taking a look at ebay. Do any of them even have a bid? He has 5 there right now and didn't even want to hear about possibly working out a deal. I really guess since they are the biggest dealer in the nation that they can throw the bird to a couple of sales. You know, a M3 is 50k, but it is probably worth it not to deal with the yahoos at this Mitsu dealer. And after a slight confrontation about him calling me crazy vs him being crazy for asking 8k over and only having sold one at this point, he demanded I get out of his store, claiming he didn't need anyone suggesting what the EVO really was worth and how "limited" it really was. Anyone who knows me, knows that I am not rude or an ugly person. But by the time I left, the GM had his face a bright red and veins were visable on forehead. I have never seen a sales rep turn so ugly so quick. Real cute guy.
Please do not shop at Barrett, the guys at Maxwell were very willing to work with me, enthusiastic about having a customer excited about the car and didn't get all bent out of shape about my offer. The Maxwell sales team are light years ahead of Barrett in politeness and concern.
So to sum up
Barret = Forget it!
Maxwell = Get it!

PS. At the age of 26, I don't consider myself a punk kid, and make more than enough money myself to afford an EVO, insurance and a set of race tires. And I love capitalism, that why I offered what I offered.
