One of you guys called it. Saw one parked in front of a local starbucks. Only one I've seen in the area so far.

 

What annoys me about this guy is that he keeps swapping cars, which is fine, but then we apparently need to learn from him that his last car was crap and this one is just wonderful. We all make up this stuff in an effort to explain our actions to ourselves but I'm not interested in hearing somebody else's self analysis. My own is stupid enough.

 

Im one of his YT subscribers. I had never seen that Vid & would have thought he had a bit more driving skill than he displayed. He's great at explaining, just not doing

I think we would all be surprised on how much $$$ he makes from YT

 

He's marginal to ok at explaining stuff, depending on what he's explaining... I guess he's prolly ok if it's a subject you know absolutely nothing about.

How much he makes us easy enough to look up on socialblade.com, it doesn't take outside sponsors into account though if he has any. Also not saying he should stop or anything, just think he should be better research on some subjects

 

Maybe he'll soon find out the new miata is more fun than the S2000.

 

They stopped the Mustangs for the week because they have too many lol

 

the only vid about his personal cars I watched was when he first got his s2k. so can't really comment on this portion of his vids

 

I came close to buying a new Mustang a couple of times. Might just be my area but the dealer's attitude put me off.

 

That seems like a car dealership thing in general these days. They have no concept of customer service on the sales department.

 

Next time trying speaking directly with the Fleet Manager. Walk in knowing what you are willing to pay and have your financing already approved.

 

I had same issues with ford when trying to buy wife a focus ST a few years ago. Went in and knew we were cool with X-plan pricing. Test drove car and wanted to work out deal specifics and guy was like no we cant go any lower than MSRP but they graciously took off the ADM (On a regular ol focus ST?!). Then the salesman tried to ask my wife about her budgeting and told her "the actual monthly payment would be easily made up just by skipping a couple lattes a month".

What?! You stupid mother effer, we both have masters degrees, make over 200k/yr, 800+ credit... WE ARE SMARTER THAN YOU... Eat a ****.

We went to Subaru and got treated with nothing but respect throughout the process (CARR Subaru in Oregon). So far ford has been the worst experience with some old dude who's clueless trying to make sales and Audi has been the best. Subaru and VW were a close second for me.

 

I know a car sales man that makes over 200k/yr... has a masters degree... ironically to this post, sells Subaru's

anyway, he pulls this "monthly payment" **** all the time cause it usually works... the 10-15 sales it gets is worth the one customer like you that will walk out on them.


I learned a long time ago that you can't take anything car sales men say or do, all they care about is making the sale. just walk in with the mind set that their goal is to rip you off (cause it is) and it makes dealing with them much easier. 9 times out of 10, whether I buy the car or not, I walk away with the sales guy with rage peaking through their smile cause their BS didn't work on me. Every once in a while I get a normal/smart guy that realizes he's not gonna play me and he stops trying to BS me.

This doesn't hold true for smart luxury car dealers though cause most people that buy expensive cars (70k+) are good for repeat business 2-3 years down the road. chances of repeat business from someone buying a 20-25k car is slim to none...

 

When I bought my Evo, I told then what I was willing to pay. They tried showing me how payments @ their price would only be a few $s more. I told them I don't care because I'd be paying more than I feel it's worth.
I ended up walking out, getting a phone call two days later, and buying at my price. Not "needing" the car sure makes all the difference LOL

 

My Evo was my easiest purchase. I knew the price I wanted to pay, I knew my trade-in value, and I knew I could get the 0% financing. It took 2 hours total.
