It’s so funny how defensive people get over their cars.

I’ve emailed a couple dealers wondering if they would wholesale me their cars (low miles, 2012’s)…they keep saying “why won’t you just come here and buy it yourself?” etc etc. Ugh.

I get that too though Beck. I’ll go and buy a car that some kid wants and his dad is a dealer too. He’ll call and ask me to wholesale it to him and I tell him sure, for the asking price. “Well, wholesale number is such and such.” “Fuck you!” “I took the risk and bought the car, I could have gotten my dick stepped on, and now that I know it’s 100%, you want me to sell it to you for no profit?” “Go fuck yourself!” I’ll do deals where a customer is looking for x car, and someone I know has one, sell it, and do a split. I’m all for that. But to have someone call up and give me the “i’m a dealer too spiel, wholesale it to me.” like we’re in some club and you know the secret handshake, fuck that.

I wasn’t asking for a discount. The only thing I asked for was the $500 off because I wasn’t going to buy it certified. Then I got the whole “Wait, why wouldn’t you want it certified?” speech.

Can’t justify 2x’s the money, especially if I’m keeping the Tundra.

I might not be. Who knows, regardless… having $100,000 worth of cars is stupid.

Just move back in with your parents and mod them.

Sell house. Buy GT3-RS track toy and R8 DD. Impress tons of young girls with them. Can’t take em anywhere because your parents are home.

I like the white better, but the records and service on the red one seem much better and that car seems better taken care of.

sorry for the old thread bump, glad you picked the red one 😃 , hope she is treating you well. We did a full 180\* with our second kid on the way and picked up a 2011 Odyssey Touring CPO. Just didnt make sense having 2 small sedans. I may pick up a fun “Cash car” to play with in the summer. I really regret getting rid of it right before winter, i bet you are having a blast.

p.s. - sorry for stalker post, I found this thread when we were talking so I googled your username and STI, lol.

My porter cable, detailing supplies, and experience beg to differ. Heck, when he took it to innovative they said they never saw a used STI as nice as the one I sold to Beck. But I digress…
