    "Oh boy" ....this should be fun , new car buying today with Amanda, the sales people will ignore her ,she will walk around ,some junior will talk to her with little comment from Amanda and then we will move on with brochures .......................NOT realizing she could outspend 90% of other customers .

    A smart dealership would have prepared lunch with French champagne and have a fleet of cars delivered to "the white house " before 2.00pm Oh well ..

    It's all true ,they can never pick her out as a buyer ..and she just walks off.

    If she walked into your shop....you... with your sunnies on and straw hat on would just go back to reading the race guide in the paper and sip on your coffee ..

    Olio, maybe she should walk in by herself and not proceeded by an Arthur Daley looking character yelling "Look at me, look at me!"

    When was the last time you went in to a car dealer?

    Every time we do they ignore me and go straight to Chloe. :(

    Why would they do that ?

    Is Pat that cheap ?

    I went to Grand Motors on the GC some 10 years ago , well dressed and family in tow ........... young girl salesperson looked me up and down and said "maybe you'd be happy with the second-hand cars outside" ........... so, put family into car, drove up to BMW dealer, they give the then wife a coffee, my boy gets a windbreaker and I buy a 5 series ...... then drive back to Merc dealer with new BMW to see the sales manager and relate the story of how to treat customers

    I'm cheap. but I'm not easy!
    Similar thing happened to me at Mazda. Wouldn't let me drive the new Rx-7 Turbo (1987), so when I bought the Ferrari (for less money), I went around and showed it to them.

    The Mercedes Benz experience today was great ,it helps when the sales person has been selling to the same family group for decades ..

    Volks dealer nothing special

    And the Porsche salesman never even rang back!
