      I think 22.5k was what Ray was willing to pay the entire time. Giving a much lower number in the beginning made it easier to trick the dealership to agree to what he wanted. Kinda smart.

    This video demonstrates how tragically outdated the entire car buying process is. This was SPOT ON to my experience when going to a car dealership/lot. It's an unnecessary song and dance that every salesperson seems hell bent on having with you. I just don't understand it. Buying a car shouldn't take being held hostage for several hours before agreeing to a fair price that is somehow presented to the buyer as them doing you a favor!

      Car salespeople are considered the worst orst people to deal with. Crooked to the end. When you buy groceries at the store, the cashier doesn't try to sell you on transportation and delivery fees. Why do car dealerships do this?,? Because they can. The industry needs to be regulated, and the bad actors need to be fined heavily or go out of business. It's the wild wild west when having to buy or sell a vehicle.

    Nope. No deal. That is not a reasonable price for a car advertised under $20K. The dealer is still winning by collecting all the reconditioning and certification fees. All in with taxes and registration fees the price should still be under $22K. I have bought 3 used cars within the past 3 years and I did not waiver from the advertised price. 2 of the cars I was able to get a small discount from the advertised price. If you absolutely needed the car this week then maybe I could justify the price offered at the end but otherwise I would leave my contact information and keep shopping. The car in the video has plenty of other inventory on dealer lots right now. When you are selling a used item you never list the vehicle at the lowest possible price you will take as the selling dealer.

    Thank you guys for doing these videos. I just bought a new car at a dealership that has always been considered "honest" and I guess to their credit they were. They tried to tack on a few of the extra BS fees but as soon as I called them on it, they took them off without any arguments or hassle. I think the best part was watching the light in the finance manager's eyes die when he knew they weren't going to be able to get anything out of me that wasn't necessary. Goes to show, even the best and most respected dealers will still try to add unnecessary fees. Do your research and stand your ground. Thanks again.

    @bp39047 Місяць тому +2

    I use KBB average trade-in value as a starting point to determine what a decent offer might be. Yes, there are other ways to get this information, but all cost $$$. In many most cases I find the difference between KBB average trade-in value and their price too far to a bridge to close the gap enough to even begin negotiations. Vast majority will not move off their very fixed price. Noting worse than paying of a vehicle that is worth $$$$$ less after the purchase. For very best example is currently a Toyota dealership is advertising a 2020 Highlander Limited for ~$200 over the original MSRP with 78k miles with a KBB average trade in value of only $27k.

  • @S.L.S-407
    @S.L.S-407 Місяць тому +1

    HI guys. Just wanted to let you know the crap we have to deal with in Ontario Canada. I was looking for a 2020 Honda HRV. I saw this and it's not out of line with other numbers. To get you in the door for the sport version they advertise a price of $ 27,962 with mileage of 39,626 kilometers = 24,622 miles. They point out that this is a GREAT DEAL and it is $2,604. below market value. So aren't I the buyer lucky not to have to pay the REAL price of
    $30,566. ? But wait a moment, that $27,962 doesn't include provincial sales tax of 13% which will make the price $ 31,597.06 and that's BEFORE financing charges which will have an interest rate of 8.99%. For simplicity sake, there is no downpayment. The monthly payment will be= $ 649.42 !
    Firstly this is a SUB compact SUV. Secondly, it's FIVE YEARS OLD ! It seems these vehicles are NOT depreciating in value like you mentioned in an other video. I think this is insane ❗❗❗

  • @arnolfodesign
    @arnolfodesign 5 днів тому

    I tried something similar but the guy wouldn’t budge. The car was $6000 above list with an added 3500 just for dealer fee. I got up and walked out and no one even batted an eye. According to many reviews here in Illinois dealers could care less if you buy or not. There’s alway buyers willing to swallow the outrageous hidden fees.

    Does it help when you really aren't sure what make and model you're looking for? Some of the best used cars I've bought were what the the dealer happened to have on the lot and I felt were a good value. I was looking for a used Honda or Subaru back in the 80s for about $3,000... The dealer had a '81' Toyota Starlet with 84,000 miles , he tossed me the keys and told me to beat on it, and I did. After a day of haggling with other car dealers over a basic 30 day warranty, which was common at the time. I came back after "beating on it" and was very impressed by it, he shot me a price of $2,600 and I bought it and put on another 110,000 miles.

    I'm a senior and when I retired I gave my vehicle to my granddaughter who was attending college who by the way just graduated and she's not even 21 yet.
    I thought I could get along without a vehicle but decided I needed one.
    I found one listed for 4990.
    I was approved for financing & on the application I put I was going to do a thousand down. When I spoke to the woman over there she stated the lender wants 1800 down I said okay no problem. I told her I didn't renew my driver's license that I'd have to go do that but I wanted to come down and look at the vehicle. She told me that would be another $300 on top of it because of that.
    Then she told me my payments would be $280 a month. I said my God what is the bottom line then she said there is none I said forget it and I hung up. I did a review on them and stated they are crooks and they took it down.
    The vehicle listed was approximately 1500 under the actual retail price of it.
    Is there anything more I can do? I was thinking about having a friend call up there and seeing what they tell them as far as the price goes. Please advise

    • @zackpedersen2666
      @zackpedersen2666 21 день тому

      I’ll give you my take on this. Like you, I believe that GAP insurance is a scam. I still do.
      With that said, I bought a 2023 Jeep Compass Sport back on New Year’s Eve (2023 -> 2024). On Friday, April 26th; I was struck by a company truck running a red light with the driver operating the vehicle with a suspended/revoked license. Long story short, I basically had somebody dump a full chamber pot over my head and tell me to F’ OFF. Everybody including insurance companies all determined that I was 110% not at fault.
      I did not have GAP insurance. I did get minor injuries (sprained ankle) and did not have full tort on my insurance.
      As much as I believe things to be a scam, get Full TORT and GAP on your insurance. It’s cheaper through your insurance than it is through the dealer.

    @C-LOST Місяць тому

    I bought a used car at a Toyota dealer and after a week they told me I needed to come back to sign a new contract. When I arrived at the dealership they told me I could not back out of the deal and that I needed to sign the new contract and that the new contract was at a lower rate, making my monthly payments lower. I had already spoken to another dealership and they had told me that If I didn't want the car I didn't have to sign the new contract and I could just return the keys.
    When I arrived at the dealership and I told them I didn't want the car anymore then they brought down every single sales person to talk to me...including the " god of managers" they kept telling me I had to sign the new contract and that I had no other choice because it was against the law not to sign it. The cool thing was that the other dealer's sales person was on the phone listening and he would tell me what to say back....in the end I gave them the keys and walk away and that was it.
    I honestly expected the dealerships to be more honest.

    If someone was trying to sell me a vehicle for $19,000 and then they turned around and offered me $26,000 price tag with fees included. I would’ve told him to F off and walked out the dealership. Even if he said wait a minute come back I would’ve just given my middle finger and kept going. This is the only way dealerships are going to stop this nonsense with the additional fee crap. you have to put your foot down and do not budge.
    Who are determined to buy a car if you do not walk away three times you lost money. Be prepared to walk away. Especially in today’s car and climate. Two years ago that wouldn’t have worked, but now we’re getting back to pre-Covid buying climate.
