  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

I've had better success looking up the dealership in question, and for those that have them, going to the contact section and finding the name of an Internet Manager or equivalent and calling the dealership asking for that person directly.
 
Honestly, that just sounds like a huge pain in the ass. Maybe its just me, but a phone call seems much easier and gets me answers much faster
I've done both; there are times when it is not convenient to make a phone call.
Even the sales person I have been working with at Genesis (by email, text and phone calls) -- his email sometimes continues to send me automated emails thru whatever system they have set up.
I will add that although I enjoy speaking with people on the phone, for certain things I prefer text or email so I have a written record.
 
Tried to purchase car today at Genesis of North Shore in NY. They have 30+ G70 in their lot, very surprised. Hate trying to purchase cars. Kept trying to get me to finance. Got annoyed and was like I will purchase the car straight up for 50k cash + fees and i handed over my credit card for deposit. They went from MSRP, to 51000, to 50750, and then to 50250 after an hour. They said are you really going to walk away cause of $250 and I said the reverse applies are you going to lose a customer for a 50k sale over $250 and they said yes, so I walked out. I know it was $250 but man... my Siberian ice....

From this forum it seems like 50k for 3.3 sport is totally do-able

Kudos to you for sticking to your guns....perhaps later in the month they'll be more amenable to making reasonable choices.

I agree it’s a good idea after discussing details on the phone to follow up in writing by email.

Don’t be surprised if they call you back. $50K should be very “doable” on a 3.3T Sport (AWD, and especially RWD.)

You should reach out to r_spec for a certificate. You might possibly get one with no haggling for less than the $50K + fees.

For some reason I still cant private message someone, maybe not enough posts

Thought it was 10 posts but maybe 15. Hopefully you can contact him as that car should be a little over $48k with the Circle pricing.

Damn... thanks for the heads up. Anyone know any other way to contact him or if you are reading this post r_spec let me know thanks
 
You could also try finding a post and replying to it--think he/she posts fairly regularly.

Or respond to a number of posts on the forum that you agree with using a "+1" lol

I agree with those above who said you did the right thing. That dealership was stupid to let you go over that price, and I bet they'll be calling you.

And r_spec is a good guy. He was able to get me a circle plan certificate. Though, some people are already starting to get discounts that are just as good as the circle plan discount with just negotiating.

Since I am the worst at negotiating the circle plan was really my only hope for ANY discount. Haha.

They called me back like 1 hour after, but I didnt pick up... They left a voicemail. R_spec just got in contact with me, lets see if the dealer will honor the discount or not.. Crosses fingers... Thanks R_spec once again.

You guys who don't have 10 posts can surf the different topics on the forums and see how you can contribute information or opinions on topics. It should be pretty simple to get 10.

I finally purchased my G70 yesterday. I was originally going for a himalayan gray 3.3t advanced, but a dealer nearby had a certified pre-owned design edition with 500ish miles on it. The advanced was going to be $45k completely OTD and the Design Edition I ended up buying for $45,500 OTD. Was buying, not leasing. Best purchase ever.
