Clint of Heuberger has LEFT!

This is sad news since I was hoping to buy from him from all the recommendations that you guys have been giving him.

Any idea on what I should do now about purchasing a Series.Blue from the dealer?

Here's the official news on the Facebook page:

https://www.facebook.com/ClintAtHeuberger

"I wanted to take the time to thank you all for your support, great stories and being an excellent customer.

As of today, I have resigned from Heuberger Motors, and it's with heavy heart that I am leaving such a great community of enthusiast and many friends I have made.

You have to be happy what you're doing. Hopefully one of you saw my talents and we can work together in the future.

It has been an absolute pleasure to serve you all and with that, a fair well until next time."

Sincerely,

Clint Earhart

Ruh roh. Not trying to read too much into it, but the way he says that sounds like he wasn't very happy with the dealership or they felt mutual in the divorce.

I wonder if this had anything to do with me not buying from him because the car I wanted to buy had been in a hailstorm. Clint was nice enough to text me pictures of the car i wanted to buy the very next day of the hailstorm. I decided not to go through it and decided to buy elsewhere. This was all about 2 weeks ago.

I really hope someone that is of the same stature as him helps the potential buyers out, especially me.

I was really looking forward to the buying experience that everyone else had!

Car sales has a very high turnover rate and I wouldn't be surprised if he ended up at another dealership very shortly, but I would be surprised if he would be able to get the same deals there as he did it Heuberger.

Oh, and it should be "farewell," not "fair well." Someone should mention that.

I'm really hesitant to deal with anyone else unless they are just as good, if not better than Clint.

I'm really disappointed.

Same here. Hopefully whoever picks up is as good as he was.

Clint is heavily pursing his interest as photographer, I think it is time for him to move on from being a car salesman and actually do something that he really enjoys. I'd say good for him!

Ouch. I emailed him last week about getting a WRB Limited. This explains why I never heard back from him. It will be interesting to see if someone else at the dealership tries to pick up Clint's connections here.
