I don't think you know how to talk to these guys. You have no idea what you're doing. You're getting frustrated over nothing. You have the upper hand, not them. You got fooled almost 20 times.

I know more than you can imagine trust me.


And my TL is at 100,000 miles and is becoming the time it needs a lot of upkeep to keep her running and I could buy another TL or a better car but I opted for a lower cost reliable vehicle with modding/show car capabilities to have more fun with.

Your original post tell me otherwise. Walk into the dealership and demand a price you want. It's as simple as that.

This is how I purchased my car. I walked into the door and knew exactly what color I wanted and which dealership had the cars in stock. Walked in w/ a check for $22,500 and said this is yours for that Habi Red Si.

Of course it's always easier to pay it off if you have the cash which it looks like you do. That's all there is to it.

Not really. I can't do that till my TL is gone even if I wanted to. Plus I haven't had an opportunity to test drive the Si yet either which was the goal of the OP post. Didn't happen either. The price isn't the issue as you can tell I can demand what I want at anytime I'd prefer to have cash in hand instead of a trade-in because thats when negotiations over petty crap begins.

Again trust me Know what I'm doing.

I don't think they'd give you a hard time for a test drive. Go to any dealership to see if you even like the car and how it drives. Chances are you'll love it if you have 1000 posts under your belt. In simple terms, does a high reving 2800lb car with a six speed tranny sound fun to you? Nothing else in the market offers that for the price. GTI? Cobalt? You've chosen the right car. Took me a while to get the price I wanted. Just sell the TL privately like you're doing. Screw trade in, what a mess.

I don't have every day to run around. I work in a job field that requires me to be at work most of the day again I have to schedule these things out. This weekend is labor day so I'll have it hopefully by next week...we'll see.

And like those dealers some people inside of them work till 9pm. Certain job fields demand a lot more hours than others. I'm in the IT field I work technically 24/7 since I have a blackberry/laptop attached to me at all times. But I'm in the office a lot of the time. Thus so many posts.

what are you getting at?
for some one that doesnt have alot of time, your going to be wasting even more selling your car privelty rather than just trading it into the dealer.

Putting my car on Craigs List and having people set up Weekend time to see it is not difficult.

You've tried to horribly imply things this entire post you should give up you have no idea what you are talking about.

im implying that you have a story for everything.
your not getting your car until next weekend because you dont have time....but you have time to set up appts. for people to buy a car?

i feel your the next remz. or it didnt happen
or is your camera broken? or a tornado came though? or the garage lights are broken?

Because car dealers are open short hours on Saturdays and are not allowed to sell here in NJ on Sundays. Again you are by far the dumbest person I've seen post on these forums. Repeatedly you imply things that make little to 0 sense.

There are people in the NorthEast forums whom I have stopped and met shook hands with and have seen my TL in person and have verified I'm hardly joking.

There's people at the Honda dealership who've seen me come in there's logs of my internet convorsations in my email with them about the pricing.

Again you are by far the dumbest person on these forums.
