Bad Dealership experience

Zaku · 07-02-2009, 05:12 PM

Hey guys I just went to Criswell in Germantown.MD and they gave me such a great experience. They let me try 3 different Z and the salesman that I had came in just to help me on his Day off. This dealer had plenty of Z in stock. It was awesome to finally try the Z, and they were cool with the fact that I didn't want to buy any of the ones on the lot because they only have the kind of configuration is want In Red. I want White, but would settle for Silver. They told me to take sometime to think about what I really want, they wouldn't mind ordering for me or selling off the Red on to me at a close to invoice price. I need sometime to think about it, but definitely I know what Kinda Z i want which is a base 370z with 7 speed Auto in White or Silver. and I wlll get it here at Germantown. The Rockville guys were really bad, they gave my friend who bought her 350Z recently a really bad time. They tried to sell her a base model for 40K wtf. I don't want anyone to go to Rockville Darcars and get a bad Exp. Please drive alittle further to Criswell in Germantown.

Now I gotta think....do I just want to buy the Red or get what I initially want.

i feel your pain. i recently went through some similar experiences in buying my z. being young doesn't help. just get your finances ready and probably best to contact via email/online and have them negotiate against other dealers in town. either that or go through the vpp program.

No one can change your mind, but as owner of a pearl white, I've already said my next is red. All the bugs that mash up on the front bumper have a little drop of someone's red blood in them, and since the snout is so blunt, you get a LOT of bugs.

Fact is red is my favoite color, but It would be bad because I don't have a garage or shade to park it in, btw the dealer offered for the red one with like 4 miles on it for 31500, is that a pretty good deal? the car was 33000. keep in mind it doesn't have a thing but wheel locks, but I might just over look the color if that's a good price because, I don't think they can offer that for something they have to order. you know that Z looks really nice in Silver....I can't decide...

Base with nothing ... no.

Spend time reading threads here. You missed out on the VPP stuff, but there are alternatives almost as good.

Try using overstock.com to locate your car.
