Speaking of stupid American car sales, I saw an ad for a 2010 Mustang GT for $240 a month (lease) with about $2k down. Apparently they're trying to get rid of the '10's since the 11's have the new 410 HP motor. It seems like a cheap daily driver so I go to the dealer to take a look, ready for the fine print. Usually the car in the ad is the NO option special, and they get you into a pricier model. Well, I figure that all I need is a V8 and a 5-speed, the GT already comes standard with Sync and all the power options so "base" model car is fine with me.
But when he tells me they don't even have any cars on the lot as called out in their own ad (and not because they sold them all) I start to get irritated. Then he finds one, it stickers at $34k and he can sell it to me at X-plan for about $32k. How that works out to $240 a month I'm still trying to figure out. Needless to say, none of these $240 a month cars have materialized...
No wonder nobody wants to buy AMerican cars when they're still pulling this bait and switch BULLSHIT.
Needless to say I was angry.
Once a year or so, I'll stop at a stealership and harass the sales guys by playing "buyer" and messing with them about these sales. Makes for a fun half hour.
