Has anyone had problems getting dealers to call them back? Last Tuesday I visited a local dealership that received rave reviews from another Z forum and had them do a locate on a solid red 370 with the sport package. He quoted me $30,960 for the car, but unable to actually contact the dealer while I was there I left him to it.
The next morning I called him up and told him I would take the car and was willing to put a deposit on it. Unfortunately, after a couple of hours he called back to tell me that the car had already been sold and that he would start looking for another. Having heard nothing from him I dropped by Friday afternoon to see if he had gotten anywhere he reported to me that he had not found a car yet, but when I sat down at his desk we started calling dealers and got no good responses.
I ended up searching on my own when he didn't call back and tracked down two cars that match my requirements in the St. Louis metro area. (Neither of those dealers have called me back thus far) I called the local salesman up last night before closing to see if he had found anything yet and I told him I had found the car for me at St. Charles Auto in St. Louis. He took their number and called back within a half hour to tell me he had found the car for me! $33,960.
Today I've tried to get in contact with St. Charles Auto again and the salesman I spoke with yesterday promised me a call back that was never returned, and has since stopped answering his phone.
Am I crazy or are these salesmen? In the past I've had to fight salesmen off with a stick when I expressed a little interest in a car, but even after telling them I have a blank check in my hand they don't seem to want to call back now.
tl;dr: What does it take to buy a 370Z nowadays?
