I began looking for a car 3 months ago. Drove my daughter's 18 year old Nissan onto the lot, found a car to test drive, and on the drive, the salesman actually mocked the car I drove in on. Wat? Strike 1. Fast forward to this week- I go by and spy a similar car on the lot after hours that I liked. Found it on their website, asked for information, filled out the form and explicitly said to EMAIL, not call. Guess what they did? Yep. They called, but left message. No email. Strike 2. Curiosity got the better of me, so I called back. The sales lady was not there, so I left a message. Again, I said, send an email, do not call. What does she do? AGAIN... Strike 3. Nevertheless, I answered the call. Wasn't getting the deal I was looking for, got the ol' come-in-today-and-I-can-get-you-another-few-hundred-bucks-off routine, which is really insulting in this day and age (there are 12 identical cars in a 100 mile radius right now). Told her thanks, but no thanks, I was moving on. She was very quick with me, and hung up the phone a little too quickly to be considered polite, but hey, ok, move on... Now, today, what happens... ANOTHER PHONE CALL... Strike 4 leads to bad reviews. Hope the sales manager sees this and understands that I AM THE CUSTOMER. If you want my money, at least respect my conditions. Maybe your strategy works 80% of the time. Maybe I am just that one dude who doesn't fit your model. All of this is meant as constructive criticism and I hope your company will use it as you see fit. EDIT- less than one hour after posting this review I get an email. No, nothing suspicious about that timing at all... SMH...
