did you ever read that piece that Edmunds.com did on selling cars
 
one of their reporters went 'undercover' and sold cars at three dealerships- one high end, one 'low end' and one Saturn dealership. Really interesting, albeit long.

Verrrrrrry long. Took me all day to read it in bits and pieces.

I think it took me about 3 days to finish the whole thing, but it was really interesting

If you do it, take that great attitude with you! Good luck.

if you do decide to go into that field what dealership are you planning....
 
to work at...im lookin into buying a new a4/s4 this year and would rather go to a fellow aw'er than some jack that dont know sh*t..

Hey if you can get us a good deal, I will buy an 02 A4 from you. . .
 
I live in CA, however distance is no problem. If you can get us a price close to invoice I will buy from you as well as some other folks in CA. It would turn into a quasi-group buy. I am willing to order and wait the three months. Hell, screw the 02 A4, probably too much demand right now. If you can get me invoice or close to invoice pricing on a 225 TT coupe with premium package only in silver/ebony interior, I will buy from you. Let us know. I am serious, interested in buying something in the next 3 months. Good luck in your new job, regardless.

Very cool possibility
 
really comes down to two factors, what sort of dealership, and what marque of vehicle. Audis are nice, and selling would be very, very fun for me. If i could get a job selling them on weekends, id do it in a heartbeat.

Alot of people entered car sales because it is a job with the potential to make lots of money, and requires no education. But you can take a different approach, learning the product, driving it, and that can make you are far better salesman than most. Just remember that enthusiasts are not common, remember to stress the points the average person wants to know about, without pushing the modification potential.

That is a very nice dealership, and everyone there seems very nice.

Sorry ive not called recently, ill call ya soon, we can grab a coffee.

Cheers
