Stay Stock and Stay Almost Worry Free!!! Like Me!!!!

Stoney's FAQ's>

Yea, though I drive in the Valley of the Shadow of the V8, I shall fear no V8 for the V6 is with me. Thy 2.7 liters and thy 2 K04's comfort me. Thou shall prepare boost at my call against the V8 that troubles me. Thou annointest my V6 with Mobil One Oil, and my psi shall runneth over. Thy loving smoothness and torqueness shall follow me all the days of my driving and I will dwell in the house of the V6 Bi-Turbo forever!!!!!!

Guy bought an S4 at another dealer. Claimed he got a significant discount. - April/verdegrrl 2001-08-11 15:07:43 (247 views)

If every car is sold at a loss, and more are sold .. then that simply means the dealer loses more... - 2.7Tango 2001-08-11 13:08:22 (120 views)

This is more typical of all buyers then you may realize. - dzier 2001-08-10 20:58:48 (145 views)

Personally, I don't feel like a uniquely cheap, tight-ass....not spending 40K on a car anyway! - A6 Top Cat 2001-08-10 18:20:37 (119 views)

A "Big Spender" can drop $500 on dinner, but still be a tight-ass if he leaves a $10 tip... - Finman 2001-08-11 11:54:17 (89 views)

I agree...but it's easy to get caught up in it with the info available on the web - Metz 2001-08-10 17:25:50 (107 views)

Re: Audi makes over 10k profit per car! - srleo 2001-08-10 16:44:53 (154 views)

Where do these figures come from??? Even Ford "only" makes $6-8k on its SUVs... - Finman 2001-08-11 00:30:08 (142 views)

Audi might, but dealers don't ! Open a dealership and then try negotiating with AoA or VAG - April/verdegrrl 2001-08-10 17:00:22 (168 views)

Please explain. Don't think dealer makes 10K on sale. Sale plus maintenance? AoA? How? - timcar 2001-08-10 16:54:55 (123 views)

Not the dealer, but AOA - srleo 2001-08-10 16:59:47 (78 views)

I agree with you Finman. Crossed the street from the BMW to the Audi, met Ernst @ Audi Diablo - Ernesto (ERT) 2001-08-10 15:55:16 (279 views)

Yup, that's what I mean, not everyone can have an Ernst, but honest and fair... - Finman 2001-08-11 00:23:56 (97 views)

Sure you don't want paint protectant and scotchgaurd ? It's only another $25 a month ! ;-) - April/verdegrrl 2001-08-10 14:05:44 (120 views)

Yes, Scotchguard please! There's no way I could possibly do that myself :) - phred 2001-08-10 14:25:02 (97 views)

They seemed too intelligent to burn all those bridges. - April/verdegrrl 2001-08-10 14:07:12 (233 views)

The mbh unified car purchasing theory ;-) - mbh 2001-08-10 14:32:45 (134 views)

Yeah, the internet helps. Rarely do people walk in wanting a 10% discount on a car with 6% mark-up. - April/verdegrrl 2001-08-10 16:05:48 (120 views)

They are cheap, but not as cheap as some. Take Volvo. - April/verdegrrl 2001-08-10 11:32:44 (238 views)

Not cheap, just appreciate value (More) - Definitely an A6 4.2! 2001-08-10 23:04:19 (123 views)

I think the real point is, give back what you get - phred 2001-08-10 13:58:46 (106 views)

Nope, I think in today's world every buyer is like this - phred 2001-08-10 10:31:30 (212 views)

Yeah, I agree, it's just the dicking around for a couple hundred bucks seems lame - Finman 2001-08-10 13:10:53 (94 views)
