Had a car salesman get in contact with me offering a car that I was looking for and wanted me to pay $14,990. I just checked the carsales website for the same vehicle in their lot and it's priced at $11,990. I don't understand where that $3k price difference came from. I don't think they even know how much to sell the car for or the salesman was trying to pull wool over my eyes. At least they let me know that they have such a car in their used lot?
