Well,
I do sell all my Z's at invoice, ask anybody on this fourm who has bought from me or recieved a quote. I will let them speak for me. And there is a strategic reason why. I understand where you are coming from. You are seeing the buisness through a different set of eyes. It's the same way a lineman sees a football game VS. an offensive coordinator. If you would like I can PM you and give you a 101 on Inventory Management. I think you would see things a little differently.

Don't understand why you are asking this, but all my qoutes are OTD prices, and I don't advertise loss leaders.

The guy complained and said a nearby Chevy dealer would do it. Then my salesmanager said, "Ok, then buy, it's a good deal." This same jack-off visited our store several times sporadically throughout the year--too good to be true.

It also depends on the market. Also depends on your philosophy

I got a 800+ Experian, 2 paid off autos, student loans, etc. I'm with B of A @ 5.9% for 48 months, but I'm gonna switch to my credit union at 3.9% (unless this offer expires).  |
