Just took ownership of a white with black interior 2014 limited last night. Don't know if they are standard to this model, but it's got the technology and luxury package. Basically, all the bells and whistles.
Car was driven by the dealer manager and had 3136 miles on it. I guess they call it a "demo". So not brand spanking new, but broken in.
We are the first registered owners.
Crazy experience to say the least. Spent three days (varying 4-5 hours each time) there trying to make a deal.
What I was looking for mainly was a +\- $450.XX monthly payment and 0% for however long, 60 or 72 months.The monthly payment of $450 was an absolute must! They weren't offering 0% for 72, only 60 months.
The car price started off at $39,XXX. Got the car for 37,XXX out the door, not including tax, license, trade in, $1K rebate and of course the dreaded 1.9%.
After all is said and done the amount financed is $31,799.35. Got a payment of $449.99 and also purchased the extended warranty that covers it all for 10 years/100K miles. The only thing I didn't like about the deal was not getting 0%. I've gotten all my cars at 0%. Ended up with 1.9%.
Obviously the sales manager didn't like the deal. After the agreement was made on the monthly payment I never talked with him again. That was the end of day two. We were there for another 5 hours on day three. As a matter of fact there was a point where we got up and left (2nd day) because we couldn't come to terms. We were sitting in the car talking and the sales manager sent one of his grunts to tell us a new monthly payment which was closer to what I wanted before we left. That was the deal we took. I guess maybe he was embarrassed that it came to that. Whatever the case may be, I just thought it was very unprofessional of him to never congratulate my wife and I on the purchase. I bet if he got the terms he wanted, he would have shook my hand.
Talking with the sales and finance guy, both said I got a smoking deal that even the employees would never see. The sales guy said he only made $100 on this three day deal. He also said that they win some and lose some and they lost on this one although I find it very hard to believe a stealership EVER loses.
Rule number one, never tell a customer that you (as a dealership) are shooting for X number of cars to be sold before the end of the month. Poker face man, poker face!
Either way, I'm happy with the deal, my wife is extremely happy with her new car and it all worked out.
Now on to modding this thing!
