Default to Blue or not to Blue...?

I dropped my Civic beater off at the dealer's today for some work, and there was a Suzuka Blue, fresh off the truck. I had a little small talk with my salesman (his father owns the dealership), and joked about an even trade ...my Red '00 "classic" for the Blue '02.

About mid afternoon, I got a phone call..."how many miles on your S2000?" "Why?" "oh, I'm working on the numbers for your trade...stop in and see me tomorrow."

"But I can't afford to trade."

"Yes you can...stop in tomorrow, and we'll have it ready for you."

HMMMMMMMMMMMM!

Umm... I hate salesmen. If you can't afford to trade, don't.

I saw a blue on the road and it is absolutely the most beautiful blue have seen on a car. Can't wait to see one up close. Not sure if I could give up red for it but...

Blue or not, if the numbers are right, I'd go for it anyway, just to get the glass rear window!

Gotta give the salesman credit for trying to get you back into the dealership. Let us know what he had in mind.

Dropped in to my dealer today and saw my first new blue. Told the salesman that I liked the color, but didn't care for the blue interior. He said " no problem, we can change all the interior blue out to black." HeHeHe, these guys couldn't be stupider if their heads were cut off!!!
