It's still only worth 4-5k, regardless of how mint it is to YOU, any dealership won't care.

With the economy the way it is, the yshould be kissing everyones bum that walks in the door. They can't afford to lose a sale. I should email our story to GM and ask how they can use my tax money to stay in business and not even sell me a car.

He wasn't trading it in. He wanted a new car so went to buy one...and they thought he was going to do the cash for clunkers. And if the car is worth 4k, you can tell a clunker from a non-clunker.

You should ask for a free car out of that.

I talked to my boss. He wants me to start working with other departments as soon as possible which he said means a bump up in pay as well. Man only a week here and he's already talking this.

Ken, you know me... I look well under 21 lol I'm surprised the guy at Mazda didn't even ask me for my license before I test drove the mazda3 last month or whenever it was. Oh well I guess. He just handed over the car and told me to get in. I normally get **** for everything since I look so young

I look young, but since I don't bull**** I've never had a problem getting test drives. I've driven BMWs, Infinitis, Benzes, Acuras, GMs and the list goes on but in all honesty I was typically shopping for my parents lol

For a ZF 320Z(M3 trans) swap...that is cheap as ****. Trans alone is $350-400 considering mine has 118k on it. I am just broke.

I've been a part-time cashier for 2.5 years now but because I'm the last person these customers see, I have to hear all of their bull**** if their car isn't washed or if something went wrong. Luckily, I know enough about this place to reason with most them, unlike the other cashiers here, but once in a while I'll get those customers that just don't want to hear it and they blame me for their problems, like this bitch did tonight.

No you don't. These customers think they are on top of the world because Acura is generally, a higher-end car and they feel that because they don't have to pay for their BMW to get serviced, that they shouldn't have to pay for their Acura either. They don't realize that Acura is at the bottom of the food chain to BMW.
