How much to deliver my new car to my home in Virginia
Hi Robert, the cost to ship is based on how far the car is away from you. If it’s a local dealership they may deliver for free. If the dealership is 1000 miles away then it depends on the transport market. The price of gas, etc. Hope this answers your question. – Mike
It’s interesting that you should know the type of vehicle you’re wanting before entering a dealership. I’ve been wanting to buy a new Toyota Carolla this year, however, I’m not sure what color is best. I’ll use these tips to try and find the best deal for a dealership.
Seems like the dealer is playing a game at how much more they can get you to spend than the car is worth. I had this happen to me the two years back when the dealers kept being pushy on my then current car payment plan. I ended up not getting anything from that day because of their pushy attitude. However, did find a good dealership in Concord i.e. Calidad Motors that not only gave me a great deal on the car but also didn’t make me want to grit my teeth due to the unnecessary talking XD.
What do you say when the dealership offers you a quote and they say it’s only good if you sign today? Had that happen before. I was much younger and it forced me to panic and say ok before looking elsewhere.
Also, what is the flat rate fee for your services?
Hi Andrea,
Great question, something we should add to the list. “Only good if you sign today” is simply a sales tactic. A slimy one, in my opinion.
But here’s what I would say to:
“I find it very hard to believe that this price is only good for today. If the car sells between now and the time I make my decision, I totally understand. But I’m not going to be pressured into anything based on you telling me the price is only good today.”
It can be typical especially in the last couple of years with inventory low to see cars sell right out from under someone else. I’ve had this happen when I’m doing a deal for a client and they aren’t ready to pull the trigger, and the dealership does sell it to someone else. That can certainly happen. But the experience you had, is more than likely just a slimy sales tactic used to pressure you.
