Used Car Salesman
A good knowledgeable salesman is a dying breed. I know because I deal with the salesmen everyday, want to sell more cars learn about your product. Don't just take what the company tells you to say actually put some time into your car education instead of your golf swing.

Some People's Kids
Why do some people like to come into dealerships and talk about how they are going to buy this and buy that? What is the point, I understand that most people don't think much of car dealers and salesman, we are greasy, slimy and shady. But we are a group of people on the most part that work very hard and take this job very seriously. I do understand were I stand on societies ladder but that does not give people the right to come and waste our time. We have bills to pay and families to feed. I can talk cars all day and happy to do it. If you need a ego boost a car dealership is not the place to do it. I usually know in the first couple of minutes weather you can buy the car or not and if you can't and act like you can, you really don't want to know the kind of laughs we have at your expense.

I love this job
What other business can you sell a product and warn the buyer there may be some gremlins that pop up and still be a jerk for not wanting to pay for all the repairs. When you buy a sub $10k car that is used, I can look at it, drive it, inspect it but it still may have some issues.
My company made $500 on a car deal and the client wanted us to pay for $4000 in repair work? We offered to pass along our cost from our service center to help but they took it to one of the most expensive shops in town.
Repeat I love this job.

Trust
Maybe I am a simpleton from Kentucky, but when did people stop trusting? I run a honest, fair business where the truth is number one. If I believe that you are buying too much car, I will tell you. Don't get me wrong I have been screwed, but the thing is you cannot just shut down and treat everyone as a liar and a thief. A lot of bad things have happened through out the years in the auto industry, but to treat all car dealers as if they are lying all the time is wrong. There are some that absolutely are the scum of the earth and I recognize that, but there is the rest of us.
Dealer to Dealer sales are so screwed up right now and I blame the dealers themselves. Most dealers get so greedy that they will do business without checking on the reputation of the dealer. I always call around and find out about the dealer if I have never done business with them before.
Customers and potential customers have to do their research as well, there are plenty of people to ask and find out what kind of car dealer you are potentially working with. In the case of The Motorsports Gallery, I will tell you to do your homework on us.
The world is a different place today and business is getting harder and harder. I believe if we inject a little cautious trust into the system it might go a long way to helping the hard times not be so hard.

DEALS, DEALS
What a truly amazing time we are experiencing in the car business right now. The perception is that there are nothing but deals out there and they are only going to get better. This is some merit to this, there will be some marquees that will drop some more, but a huge majority of brands have found a bottom. Now whether that is a soft bottom or not is yet to be seen.
If you are looking for a car and you have the means by all certainty now is the time to buy. The U.S. vehicle inventories of high-end and exotic cars is shrinking with a full year, last year, of a weak dollar a lot and I mean a lot of good color combination and good optioned cars made their way to Europe.
On the other hand if you are going to trade in a vehicle, here's the rub. It is going to hurt, but you have to look at the money you will be saving on the new car, there is always a price to pay to play.
Financing, contrary to popular belief there is financing out there and we can get it done for you.
As always,
With Ease
