Melanie and I went to Capitol Hyundai in Kyle to look at what used cars they had. The sales guy told us that he had a 2005 Chrysler Sebring, with 18,000 miles, that had hail damage and he could get us a good deal on. So he went to his manager and the manager came to us and said that we could have it for $5,000 plus TT&L. So we went to look at it. It did have a lot of hail damage, which I wasn’t concerned about. I wanted a mechanically good running car. Well, Mel and I had to leave to pick up Brit from VBS. We told the guy we would pay $4700 out-the-door. Of course he had to talk to his manager. So I gave him my cell phone and told him to call me with the answer. I didn’t think they would go for it, but I really wanted them to do $5000 out-the-door. If they would do that, I would have bought it. Anyways, he calls me back and tells me the best they could do is $6500 plus tt&l. What?!?! Before I left the of, fer was $5k plus tt&l, where did the $6500 come from? I don’t know what happened, but I have never dealt with a car dealership where the made me an offer, and then they went up on the offer. Needless to say, we did not buy the car.
Crazy I tell ya, just crazy! I don’t know about these people. So, please BEWARE of Capitol Hyundai.
You may want to commiserate with Steve & Patti – I believe they have a similar story about that place when they were recently car shopping…
