The last time I purchased a new Cadillac 2014 CTS was the first time I had a good experience in many, many years. I did all negotiated the entire deal over the Internet. Trade in and new car. I never set foot in the dealership until I picked it up.

I should have done more homework before I negotiated on Monday. Not sure what I can do now but just live with my screw up.. I have a Leased Chevrolet Equinox with only a 2LT 4 cylinder engine and can't get used to driving it after driving Corvettes forever. Plus the Sales Manager lied to me about several things and I should have just walked out.
I guess I am pissed off and not sure if I should talk to the Sales Manager's boss which is probably a waste of time???

That was what I expected when I went into the dealership, but it was on the level. I had a new Vette in 1994, the turquoise metallic, beautiful car, but I was always concerned about theft and damage, so I traded it in three years later. It looked like new and the dealership placed it in the middle of the showroom floor.

Nope. I've bought two cars in my lifetime but I knew what to look for and how to negotiate. Oh and how to walk away, which I have done so.

I did walk away but was pressured to come back..But when I road tested the 2Lt 4 Cylinder Equinox we just drove on some back streets and not on the highway where I could have tested it when passing or merging into traffic from a stop. I also should have known some of the BS from the Sales Manager was ridiculous. But never said anything and just sat there listening to his spinning the facts and playing the numbers game.
I asked the Owner of the Chevrolet Dealership to give me a call. He just sent me an email asking to let him know if I am completely satisfied with this deal....

Is it the car dealer you're having issues with or the fact that you REALLY screwed up getting rid of that car? Where is your NCO? You NEED some corrective training or some backroom justice. Ain't no damn way I'd give up that vette...... I'm at a loss for words........

It is both Swanie...
I'm just venting because I sat and listened to a lot of BS from a Sales Manager and should have called him out on it.. And now after driving a 2Lt 4 cylinder SUV I realized I screwed up big time... This is recent photo of my Vette that now is sitting in a Used Car Lot in Norwood MA...The asking price for it is $6000.00 more than what I got for it..So if it goes for that price this Chevy Dealer made some big bucks at my expense.
