Saleslady: $49995 ,
Me: you mean 39995?
Saleslady: no its 50 grand since its upgraded.
Me: its not a sport tech.
Saleslady: Oh we added some things to it
Me: $10,000 of upgrades? I'd love to see what you did to it
Saleslady: Just some things, its the only one we have
Me: (FACEPALM), well have a nice day
lol Subaru Richmond still wins for me. I went in 2 years ago to look at the STI and the convo went like this.

Me: Hey, can I test drive the STI?
Salesl guy: No, you have to buy it.
Me: Umm how would I know I want it if I don't know how it drives?
Sales guy: People usually just buy the car, we don't do too many test drives.
Me: Umm okay I would like to test drive. I have money I just need to see how it drives
Sales guy: Sorry, you have to place a order before we will let you.
Me: I don't believe you. Is there someone else willing to help me?
Sales guy: No, this is our policy. You should research the car and place a order if you want to test drive.
Me: I'm leaving now. FU

Pretty much soured Richmond Subaru for me but from everything else I have heard I saved myself a lot of trouble.

This is the same with NewType Mitsubishi Richmond...

All these dealerships in Richmond don't care about Customer Service because the asians there are so darn rich that they just buy the car without having to test drive or having to ask any questions.

True story...

No problem, it was nice that you were able to come out and meet some of us though.

As for a sub; I know narfy and miniguy has one in their cars, ask them for advice.

As for the Blackvue... definitely worth it! I've got one in my car.

Hope to see you at the next meet.

PM me if you're in a similar position.
