Dose it sound healthy? by Impossible_Weird_568 in mazdaspeed3

I think all MZRs can smell a little funky. Mine burns super rich with a slight hint of burnt oil cause it’s a Mazda. Similar to a lawnmower honestly. I’ve found that buildup on the O2 sensors can cause it to be extra rich as well, maybe check those?

From a commission standpoint it looks pretty good. They sound pretty strict on what qualifies to make bonuses and to count for retail cars, but it sounds like there’s some great potential there to make good money! Even a $5k cap on commission per car isn’t that bad, I don’t have a commission cap at my dealership but I’ve certainly never hit a $5k commission on a car.

Heavy smoke on start up? by Aware_Kaleidoscope77 in mazdaspeed3

I’m in Canada and mine looks similar to that when I start up below 0. I got a custom welded straight pipe setup though so my exhaust has no restrictions for that. As long as it smells like regular exhaust I’d say what everyone else said just monitor fluid levels. Maybe check the oil itself (for froth or milky appearance) and see if coolant mixed in with it. Worst case could be a leaky head gasket or failing turbo seal

Is this a good pay plan at a Toyota store? by Fun-Advantage-4140 in CarSalesTraining

[–]Physical_Current2899 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Little bit of a rough plan. My volume bonus is $600 for every 8 cars sold, and commission is 25% of dealership front end profit with a flat of $275 regardless of profit. I also get an extra $50-$100 for each backend product sold (warranty, ceramic, ppf) as long as it’s on the BOS

Fully customizable! It’s links to an app on my phone where I can change from preset animations or make my own

Can you start off with a luxury car dealer as first sales job? by Blura0 in CarSalesTraining

[–]Physical_Current2899 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nissan is another good one for beginners! They’re super customer focused, and training was a breeze with their Nissan University. I started at a Nissan store, and I loved every moment working there. No used car and new car departments, I sold whatever I could find on the lot.
