1- Bringing your own financing is apparently a major

1- Bringing your own financing is apparently a major issue here. They tried two different ways to force me to go through them for financing. First they tried to tell me my preapproved financing bank would not allow me to purchase the type of vehicle I was. Called my bank and that was proven to be a falsehood. Then at the last minute, after we had already signed purchase documents, they come and tell me the sales manager will not let me leave the lot with the vehicle with the outside financing. The claim was they had to have the EFT transfer before the vehicle could leave. I'm told I will either have to get the vehicle delivered or use their financing. Given I had driven over two hours to get this vehicle they knew I was not going to come back and planned on driving it away that day. So, I was thus forced to use their in-house financing which resulted in more hits on my credit report and a higher monthly payment. Thank ya'll SOOOOO MUCH! And yea I know for a fact you didn't have an EFT transfer from your in house financing when I left in the vehicle yesterday, so more bogus lies. 2- Used a few minor issues with my trade in to knock thousands off its trade in value, even though it was in pristine condition and everything had been professionally repaired. Just as many things wrong with the vehicle being purchased (dings, scratches, etc.), but that is different, I guess! A couple of trim clips and 30 minutes work to resolve the issue that cost me thousands on trade in value. SMH 3- Did not include floor mats. Are you absolutely freaking kidding me?!?!?! Purchase a $66,000 vehicle and you cannot put some floor mats in it?? Ridiculous!

They never responded to my inquiry regarding a car they

They never responded to my inquiry regarding a car they had for sale. It wasn’t a significant savings over new, but it was a few thousand at least. Kudos to the internet sales guy not doing his/her job!

Tom did a great job handling my long distance purchase

Tom did a great job handling my long distance purchase and it was really great that they delivered the car to me. The people at the dealership were all very helpful and we love the Cadillac Lyriq that we purchased.
