I Got a New Car! - Page 10

QueenDanceALot · ‎04-18-2013

From the original post by OP I don't think you can blame anyone for wondering how you could get that make, model, year and mileage for anywhere close to $5,000 (which is the only price Yuban mentioned - not that she needs to tell anyone how much she paid, she doesn't, but she DID mention price).

So I'm not sure why people are getting their panties in a twist when some posters show skepticism about the "great deal".

I'm not going to say what I paid for my car, but it was more than double than where I found it in the "Used" section on the website.

I think you should just say what you paid for the car, Yuban. Then let everyone calculate precisely whether you got a good deal or not. After that is resolved, they can pick over whether you got a good enough warranty......if the floor matts were thrown in....and whether it came with free oil changes for the life of the car. ${#emotions_dlg.laugh}$

Good for you, Yuban! Enjoy the excitement of a new to you car and I hope it lasts as long as your Nissan-

Having seen people get burned I just wanted to help.

Really, that's all.

I hope the car serves her well for many years to come.

That's the way I took your comments Kitty. AS trying to be helpful and give her a heads up to get things checked out while there was still time. We would feel really bad to come back here next week and find that Yuban didn't get such a good deal after all.

I'm sorry I even cared enough to post and give any advice.no good deed goes unpunished.

Obviously, the OP intentionally gave the price range of 0-$5,000. She could have just said I got a used car and a great deal! Of course myself and others are going to question an almost new car (low miles) in the 0-$5,000 range. The dealers don't give out cars at the price range, without something wrong with it.

I hope you enjoy your new car! I hope it continues to be a real gem.

I doubt that most meant any harm and I have a feeling that Yuban recognizes that. She's smart.

I think that making sure very quickly that everything is ok with the car is due diligence, as you have a very limited window in case you need to break the contract.

I'm on my last car, but I remember the absolute thrill of getting a new car. Have fun!

I'll try to make this clear for everyone. When I went on to the website, and went to the dropdown box, and clicked on $0 - $5,000, the car popped up.

Somebody at the dealership, had put that car there accidentally. In reality, the car cost a lot more than where I found it on the webpage.

It's like when you go in to a store, and you find a Louis Vitton handbag on a rack that says, "Everything $50.00!"

Same thing here.

Somebody put the car on the wrong price page.

When in reality, the car cost more than double than what I found it for.

I hope that that clears things up.

Was Yuban, then changed to Plaid Pants due to forum upgrade, and apparently, I'm back to being Yuban.

I understood now that's what happened. Usually, the dealer can retract that huge mistake. Were not talking about a purse. That's why I was questioning the price. There's no way a dealer can sell that car (at that price) without there something being wrong, or a mistake on the price. The problem that I have is you knowing it should not be marked at that low price. Many people could lose their jobs.

The $5,000 thing did make some of us go, "What"? Understandably.

I know I did and just didn't want to think you'd been taken for a ride.

Many happy driving hours to you! I think the Corolla 2013 is pretty cute, too, as well as a good car.

What color is it?

Congrat's! Those are beautiful cars...I've always loved them....Toyotas run forever too!

It looks like some of us are in trouble with a few others (NOT Yuban) for not only caring, but passing along standard information.

You're right, no good deed goes unpunished, and aside from that, some people just don't want to know basic information. A head in the sand is a better approach for some.
