I saw the number you posted in another thread, and if that's what you got it for, it's a good deal. I offered the dealership $18k on that car and they wouldn't take it. If it ended up selling for less, then that's got to be the fourth seller/dealership that lost out on a sale to me because they were too stubborn.

 

Welcome!

 

It's all in the timing...I offered a low-ball price to a dealer every other week for 5 months before they finally took my offer on my 350z. Patience, persistence, and the timing of saying the right thing to the right person to close the deal.

To the OP...Welcome...

 

That is very true. Three of the sellers got back to me to take my offers, but the car I had already purchased was a much better value.

 

Does your shift knob rattle during cold starts? My car rattles and there is a strong smell of gasoline too. Is this normal on cold days?
