| 2004 Cadillac and 2005 Cadillac
My
brother just purchased a 2004 Cadillac Deville DHS leftover from a dealer
and here is what I have learned from his purchase. My brother loves a
bargain so when he realized he can save some money on the 2004 model instead
of getting a 2005 Cadillac STS he did so. He was very sure of the color car that
he wanted. He really wanted a black exterior and a black interior. As he
went from dealer to dealer that said over the phone they had a 2004 model in
these colors. They all tried to push a 2005 Cadillac on him which was
never going to work as he was set on saving the money by getting a 2004
Cadillac.
He went to 7 or 8 dealers and this was his experience in all but one
where they had the 2004 Cadillac in his colors that he wanted. He ended up
buying it on the spot. He saved over $10,000 in the process and got a new
car that he wanted.
I realize that this is not the normal way they conduct business but when
a customer knows EXACTLY what they want they should not mislead someone just
so they can get them into the dealership. With all the new
Cadillac 2005's STS and
Deville's coming on
to the lots my brother realized a way to save money on the car he wanted was
by getting a 2004 leftover. He
only had that amount in his budget for a new car so there was no way he was
going to buy a 2005 at all.
When he is ready to trade in this Cadillac you can bet that he will only
go to the Cadillac dealership that he bought this car from. BTW the car is sweet. I
will give a review in a few weeks, I still can't believe the deal he got on
it. Before you go looking be sure to go to Edmunds.com and get a price quote
on a new
Cadillac
This will save you tons of time driving around from dealer to dealer. You
should also pick up the latest Consumer Reports magazine and see what
reviews they have conducted. It may give you a better idea of the features
that you want when you are buying a new car. |
