We went to Bell Road Toyota to trade in my Mercedes. I wanted a car that would be good.
We worked with Gilbert. Awesome guy!
We first looked at cars for my other half, nothing was found that was of wanting. Then we went for my car. I went in for a Toyota Camry. I found one that I liked and we went forward with it. The first set of numbers that gave me was to buy. I wanted to lease and the lease was not doable due to negative equity. Buy was their best way. We did not want to buy. So we left to think about it. In the mean while they called and came down on price. For me, when it was finally time to do it....I could not. I thought I could do a car...but I cant. I need my SUV. I use it all the time.
So we tried a Rav4.... No way, was I paying that much. We went back to Camry. They even got lower.... Over a week goes by and I am still thinking I cant do a sedan. Bell Toyota has trained everyone to say " What can I do to help you get this car?" So we told Gilbert a low number that could not do...number we gave means they would lose money on the deal. But I figured it would be a way to give myself time to think with no pressure from them. They called back.....Got $18.00 away from the number I gave. I was really impressed. But it did not get me in to buy it.
In fact, I waited so long they sold the car I wanted. Which was kinda good, cause I really did not want a sedan..
Would I use them . Yes! I would and have recommended them. Though I did not buy a car with them. They were easy to talk with and work with.
My only big complaint is this.. They can apply a lot of pressure. I got upset a few times cause I would be thinking about what I want to do and they call and call.
When you tell them, I will call you and let you know by the end of the day.... Let me call, dont call me again and again.. I feel I almost bought the car just to stop the pressure.
I am glad though that Gilbert was so good about it all. He did not call me unless he had too.
Still have not got a new car yet.
