Default Car shopping in today’s world...

Thinking about upgrading wife’s war wagon. She’s got a 2011 Kia Forte hatchback with 32,000 miles on it. Runs fine and only had one problem with it (CEL) which was fixed for about $500, About a year ago. She wants the creature comforts of today’s cars, like LED’s, heated seats, remote start, etc...

Called the local Honda dealer. They have a 2023 HR-V AWD which would suit her needs (and mine) to a tee. MSRP of roughly $29,000.

So far so good...

Comes to financing now. $602 a month for 72 months with $4,000 down.

Me: uh, excuse me? What’s the interest rate?
Dealer: 5.9%
Me: ok, how do you come up with that number?
Dealer: $4,000 down on a $39,000 vehicle?
Me: $10,000 over sticker price?
Dealer: we’re not the worst ones out there.
Me: Stick it up your ***.
Dealer: sir, you don’t understand...
Me:say hello to Mr. dial tone. :click:

I’ll wait a couple of months, years when we go back to “negotiating” a price. This clowns should be run out of business by the manufacturer’s.

Next to a lawyer or politician, I can’t think of a lower life form than a car “dealer”.

:rant off:
