Q: Was this car dealer pulling a game?
I’ve been shopping around for cars lately, particularily Infiniti G23’s between 06-08.
So I come across an Infiniti today that seemed like a good price/deal. 2006, only 28,000 miles, CarMax says it’s clean and no problems. The car dealer seemed nice. Young guy, nice guy, about my age, early-mid 20’s perhaps. Anyway, I test drive it and we sit in the office and listen to him try to “sell” it to me — the usual. I meet his manager. Yadda yadda yadda. I get home, and maybe an hour later, the dealer calls me to let me know that the manager’s friend is coming by to purchase the car in 45 minutes, and that I have the opportunity to let him know that I can come buy to purchase the car so he can hold it for me.
I just find it funny that all-of-a-sudden the manager’s “friend” wants to buy the car. Why would the manager let his friend know about the car within 1 hour after I looked at it? Otherwise, he would have told me that someone is already going to buy it. Secondly, why would they want ME, who they only met for 20 minutes, to buy the car and prevent a personal friend of theirs from buying it? It doesn’t make sense.
I’m not used to dealing with car dealers (my last car was purchased at an auction), so maybe some of you that have may know that this is a classic car dealer trick.
I’m willing to bet if I show up there Monday (when I plan), that the car will still be available. The thing is, this dealer was high on my list (narrowed down to the top 2). But now it makes me want to play games with him. Should I tell him that the other dealership was selling the same car for $8,000 less to get him to reduce his own price?
I meant to say Infiniti G35. No such thing as a G23. What am I even talking about.
masstex: You’re blaming me and calling me an idiot. I’m just saying, it’s not necessary for the guy to lie and try to get me to rush over there to buy the car before his “friend” does. He was high on my list and I will probably buy from him anyways.
A: Does it sound a little funny that all of a sudden the manager’s “friend” wants the car? Yes, it does.
That doesn’t mean it isn’t true. I’ve been in the business for many years now, and it really has happened. Not often, mind you, but it has happened several times to me.
Maybe the guy was “lying”… it’s not the worst thing I’ve heard though. He may have just been trying to light a fire under your ass so you come buy the car from him. I don’t condone lying, but if that’s the worst thing that happened to you today, you had a good day!
Salespeople are not all sleazy, and not all of them play games. But like someone else said (although he said it rudely), salespeople are on commission and want to sell the car.
Maybe the guy got a little creative. So what? If you like the car, and can afford the car, buy the car.
Good Luck!!
Q: How do I go about getting compensation for the poor work done on my car causing my engine to blow up?
Heres the situation:
I got an oil change at Speedee Oil in North Attleboro,MA on Saturday 1/7. Then I did not drive my car for about a 2 week period due to being away last weekend and taking the commuter rail to work each day. I then drove my car all day yesterday. Then as I was heading out to an afterniin dinner before the game last night, I was driving onto the 95 S and my car all of a sudden died. I had no warning lights on until the car shutdown. I was able to et over thankfully.
I was towed to the local Toyota because of the free roadside service I have. According to the manager there, Speedee did not put the oil filter cap back on correctly causing it to fall off while I was driving and the oil coming out. The engine is now blown on a car with only 4K miles. Speedee right now is not claiming any fault in the matter. I dont know if I should continue going after the local place because they are individual franchises or take this to the corporate level to see if they have any link
A: You must take it to someone else who can prove that the first person did not fix your car properly… you might have to go as far as to prove they made the condition worse…. then when you have the proof take it to the fist business and tell them you wish to be compensated… if they do not make you feel whole you can take them to small claims court (under 5k damages) and settle it that way.
Q: How Ajax Technology could be used for creating an online game?
Hi.I am working as a brand manager in a Creative Agency and handling a client which is one of the largest car maker in the world.We are making an online game for this company. I want your help to find out how Ajax Technology could be used to make this online game. U can provide me important links also.
A: Ajax is very powerful stuff – but its really useful in populating forms and interface elements in a web page without refreshing or reloading. I second the first poster’s suggestion that you really ought to consider Flash for such a thing, since just about everyone has Flash anyway…. its graphics model would be less flaky than a web browser, and you wouldn’t have to worry about the behaviour of different browsers.

Q: How is it legal for a car dealer to charge me more or less than the next person for the same car?
I do not understand this. First, it’s just stupid that since the 50’s this cat and mouse game has been going on. Customer threatens to walk away before saleman walks into manager’s office That stuff.
Second, I can’t believe that with today’s overly litigous society, lawyers don’t file 300 lawsuits per day against auto dealers for discrimination. I’m lost on this one.
A: I am with you. I am so sick of the smoke and mirrors in auto sales. There’s a place here that feeds you a meal because you are there so long getting tortured by the sales staff. It’s almost as bad as the real estate game!
Q: My car salesman is out today so should I go?
talk to the Manager? I’m interesting in a used car and really like our car salesman. I saw the car yesterday and he’s out of the office today. He said to bring my vehicle in tomorrow to get the trade-in value. Should I skip him and go today? Does that seem desperate? I don’t want them to stick it to me…oh the games.
A: Well….this is how it works.
If your salesmen doesn’t get the transaction done,
he won’t get the commission.
Instead, whoever helped you out will get the commission.
So if you do like your sales, wait a day, and tell him or her that you have waited the salesmen just because you liked his or her service. = )
I’m pretty sure that the salesmen would appreciate that and try to get you more service. = )
Q: Why is it such a hassle to buy a new car?
We’ve been wanting to buy a new car for the past 6 months. We have a Honda CRV with just 30K miles on it and we can get really good money for it vs. the 6-months left on its 5-year loan. But we’ve been avoiding going to the car dealers because we know it’s such a hassle.
We’re smart buyers, we know all their tricks, and we even play good cop / bad cop as part of the negotiations (so they aren’t the only ones playing games with their “let me check with my manager” and “we don’t do this for everyone, but….” nonsense a la Mr. Lundegaard in Fargo).
But it’s SUCH A HASSLE.
Why can’t you just go to a dealer, all the people are paid F/T salaries, they show you the product, and either it sells itself or it doesn’t. If it doesn’t sell, the company knows they need to make a better product. That’s it.
Ugh!
We’re probably going to buy through CarMax just for this reason, but STILL we need to somehow test drive the ones we’re thinking of getting. What a nighmare!
A: I know what you mean, I hate the typical car buying process as well. But the reason salespeople engage in all the back-and-forth sales shenanigans is because, more often than not, it works.
Have you ever watched the tv show “King of Cars” on A&E? The owner on that show is always saying that if a customer visits the dealership and leaves without buying anything, chances are they will not come back. Hence, when a potential buyer comes on the lot, they treat it as if it’s their only chance to ever sell them anything and pull out all the stops. Just sitting back and letting the car sell itself doesn’t cut it.
I’m sure every dealer would love to have better product, but the fact is every car manufacturer is constantly trying to make a better product (while balancing price), and it’s very difficult to stand out. Even if you do have a hot product, it will inevitably cool down. The re-designed ‘05 Ford Mustang was a huge hit for Ford that year, but two years later the hype has died down and you can once again get a Mustang for under invoice. What is Ford to do? Doing another re-design would be very costly, and even if they did there’s no guarantee it would sell any better.
If you want a no-hassle/no-haggle experience, there are usually a few dealers around who do this to attract customers such as yourself, though maybe not the brands you’re looking for. Cehck out Saturn — their entire marketing strategy is designed around having a no-haggle, low pressure, customer friendly buying experience (of course, they’re a classic example of a brand that needs better product! Although the new Aura and Outlook are pretty nice).
You can also use car buying services like Costco and carsdirect.com to buy these days, they can even arrange test drives for you.

Q: Maths investigation..”A game of chance”?
A few years ago, in the town of Winchester in Southern England, the manager of Mercedes Car Showroom came up with an idea which quite caught the imagination of the public. He advertised a sort of raffle or competition whereby people paid 50 pence, then rolled 7 dice. If each die showed a six, the person won a luxury car (value at £35000). Your job is to analyze, from a probabilistic point of view where the game is fair or not.
- probability of winning the car?
- number of people expected to take part in the competition before the car is won
- the amount of money expected to be generated before the car is won
- expected profits/ loss
- what a “fair” game is
- what a “fair” profits/loss would be
- the population of winchester
- what effect would be of changing the rules to
- using fewer (more)dice
- charging less(more) for a chance of playing
- changing the rules entirely for winning the car
- offering a less(or more) expensice car as prize
can you help me ??:D:D
A: The probability of seven dice each showing a 6 is 1/6^7 or about 1 in 280,000. Therefore, on probability grounds, you would expect half that number 140,000 to have a go before the car was won. Obviously it could be more or less.
This represents an expected income of £70,000 or twice the cost of the car they were giving to the winner. Is that reasonable? It is a matter of opinion. Bear in mind that the winner could have come much sooner than the 140,000th person, and could of course come later or never.
The population of the town is only relevant if you think that the offer would not attract many visitors. Also residents could have paid for attempts on behalf of friends or relatives who lived a long way away. The question said that it “caught the imagination” which suggests a lot of interested and possibly paying customers.
I think that’s enough help.
Q: Where can I complain if I have a problem with my Volkswagen dealership?
My Volkswagen dealer sold me a car with a CD-changer. But when I got home I noticed that there was no CD changer. I’m paying for something that I never received. For 4 months now I’ve been trying to get this settled but the manager is playing a game with me. He either ignores my voice messages, or says that he’ll take care of it, or he cts surprised that nobody has contacted me yet. Lately he really screens my calls and the receptionist always has to make up an excuse so that he doesn;t have to talk to me. It’s the Winn VW dealership in Newark CA and the manager’s name is John Winn.
A: The dealership should just go ahead an honour the deal; however, since they haven’t this is what I’d do: Contact the New Car Dealer Licensing Board, this is part of the Consumer Affairs Department thru Sacramento, CA (our state capitol) thru the 800 telephone number and also send a letter both via USPS certified mail with a return reciept (so no cannot say that they didn’t receive it) make sure that you enclose what documentation you have showing that you purchased a vehicle with the cd changer as part of the new car purchase and also mail a copy of the letter to the owner/manager of the dealership in question.
The dealership will normally be given up to 14 days to respond to your concern, if you have enough evidence to support your complaint, I’m certain that you’ll get a call to settle the matter to your satisfaction. The costs of dealing with state in this matter will exceed the cost of them installing the unit, plus avoid a possible issue with the licensing board.
In addition, file your concern with the local Better Business Bureau and someone like the consumer help people at KRON 4, as no one wants their business to be on television with a negative image. This should put considerable pressure upon the dealership to settle, especially since the amount of money is so, well, small.
Finally, a letter to Volkswagen of America in Michigan will almost certainly add fuel to the fire that you wish to start.
Be brief, to the point, explaining and showing the proof that you have that you may have been taken advantage of. You can obtain the address in your owner’s manual. Be sure to send this letter certified mail with a return receipt; VW will respond to this by assigning a case number; they may or may not be able to do anything since this is case of a dealership issue, not a vehicle issue, but no one wants to have the attention of the factory over a customer satisfaction issue that is so minor.
Finally, if all else fails, you could go to small claims court and hopefully obtain a judgement award to have the CD changer installed, but after all of this writing, I hardly think that it would be necessary and you would have gotten the changer by this time.
I spent on/off, 25 years in Volkswagen dealership service departments from 1980 to December of 2005.
I hope this helps, a car nut.

Q: I rented a car from enterprise rental car. I dropped the car key in the night with every thing perfect?
I rented a car from enterprise rental car. I dropped the car key in the night with every thing perfect (as it was before renting). The enterprise guy gave me a call the next morning and left me a message, “Every thing is fantastic. Thank you for doing business with us. But there was 2 galons of fuel shortage and we will charge $6 on your card”
Now, it is after almost a month. I just received a call from the “Loss Control Department” saying that there was damage on the car (which is a total lie) and “it’s been already repaired and you need to pay the bill”. When I called the enterprise, went and met them, played their voice message which said “We checked the car and was fantastic…”. But the manager keeps pushing me pay the bill for the damage. My question to them was, if there was damage, why I was not told the next day when they left the message. They don’t have the dated photograph of the vehicle damage. My guess is, the next rental guy must have damaged the car and they are playing a game of getting the money out of me. I tried to complain to the enterprises head office, they have not responded to me yet. Now, did any one have this kind of experience with anyone? If so, what should I do?
I know how it feels when some one puts the blame on you when you are innocent.
I have been very much stressed out for the last 4 days not knowing what to do.
(If I had a damage on the car, I could have called my Geico insurance and get it fixed, but I don’t want to be punished for anything that I didn’t do)
-Thanks for your patience for reading this and replying to me (in davance)
A: You need to stop worrying about this because you have the best thing in the world that will protect you…….you have the recorded message..
That is all that you need and if they continue to hassle you then just tell them that you are going to take “THEM” to court and if they decide that they are going to take you to court, I will guarantee you 100 percent that you will win along with court fees with that recorded message….
