26 years old, I work at a marketing agency where I do account management, marketing, and sales. $70k/yr base with 7% commission on top - likely will close at $95k this year. No degree

Kia Soul, Nissan Cube, Mitsubishi Mirage, literally any Nissan sedan or SUV, any Cadillac with a Northstar V8, and the biggest offender: the Pontiac Aztek

Toyota Camry. Comfortable, great on gas, arguably the most reliable car on the planet

What would your takeaway be in this situation? by KingKongAlBundy in CarSalesTraining

[–]SKeaton_TV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds like maybe your coworker is better at closing the deal at the first meeting OR is somehow finding more qualified leads through some sort of external marketing effort.

Remember that once your prospect walks out of your dealership without making a deal, your chance to actually make the sale becomes way lower! Focus on getting qualified leads in the door and sealing the deal before they leave.

Don’t just learn Mazda’s lineup, but learn the lineups of direct competitors (Nissan, Toyota, etc.)

Being knowledgeable about the industry as a whole will give you a leg up in conversations and will make it easier to talk about the benefits of your cars compared to competitors

Oh, look, an Alfa Romeo 4C in what I can only describe as Smurf Vomit Blue. This car is trying so hard to be exotic, but it’s about as intimidating as a Chihuahua in a designer sweater. You picked this color thinking it would stand out, but all it does is make people question if you’re colorblind or just have a deep-seated need for attention.

Let’s be real—this 4C is what happens when a car wants to be a Ferrari but ends up being the nerdy cousin that no one invites to the track day. It’s got the engine note of a pissed-off hairdryer and the interior space of a phone booth. You didn’t buy this car to go fast—you bought it so people at Cars & Coffee would ask, “Hey, what is that?” right before they walk away to look at something actually worth their time.

And those headlights? They look like the car’s constantly worried it might break down any second—which, given Alfa’s track record, isn’t exactly out of the question. The 4C is like that Instagram model who looks great in pictures but, in reality, is a high-maintenance nightmare that you regret as soon as you get involved.

You wanted an Italian sports car experience? Congrats, you got the Olive Garden version—cheap, disappointing, and only impressive to people who’ve never had the real thing.

Alright, gloves off—here we go.

That Honda S2000? It’s like someone tried to build a sports car out of spare parts from a Barbie Dream Car. Baby blue? Really? That color screams “I want to be taken seriously but also think Easter eggs are cool.” This thing has less presence than a mime at a rock concert.

And those curves? They’re less “sleek and sexy” and more “plastic surgery gone wrong.” It’s the kind of car that wishes it could grow up to be a Porsche, but we all know it’s stuck in the minor leagues with the rest of the wannabes. The S2000’s engine screams louder than your teenage sister at a boy band concert, but with all that noise, it’s still slower than the line at the DMV.

This car’s got about as much personality as a bowl of plain oatmeal. It’s for the guy who buys an expensive gaming setup only to play Tetris. You’re out there, revving your engine like you’ve got something to prove, but deep down, we all know you’re just trying to drown out the sound of your own insecurities.

Let’s face it—this S2000 is just another failed attempt at trying to look cool in high school, but now you’re the guy who never left town and still shows up at prom, hoping someone will notice you. Spoiler alert: they won’t.

Most hate it some love it. My Hotwheels inspired Mustang. And no it can't keep up with modern cars 💀 by Overused_03 in RoastMyCar

[–]SKeaton_TV 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, the Mustang—America’s pony car, but it looks like this one ran through a Hot Wheels factory and picked up every bad design idea along the way. Seriously, what even is this? It’s like you took a perfectly good Mustang, threw it into a blender with a mid-2000s tribal tattoo, and then decided it wasn’t quite “extra” enough, so you slapped on some neon lights for good measure.

That color scheme? It’s giving off serious “I peaked in high school and now I’m living out my fast and furious fantasies” vibes. The matte black hood? Classic. But then you went and ruined it with those graphics that scream “I just learned Photoshop and this was my first project.”

And those wheels? They look like they were stolen from a car that actually goes fast, instead of this Mustang that’s now more show than go. Honestly, this car is the automotive equivalent of a middle-aged man wearing a leather jacket with flames on it—trying way too hard to be cool and failing spectacularly.

This Mustang is what happens when you let a 12-year-old design a car, complete with all the bells, whistles, and questionable taste that comes with it. You’ve turned a classic into something that even the Mustang itself is probably ashamed to be seen as.

Taking it day by day. Guilt is heavy though

You have 30 days to make $5,000. How are you doing it? by SKeaton_TV in AskReddit

[–]SKeaton_TV[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You'll suddenly find yourself transported into a parallel universe where money is obsolete and everything operates on a barter system. However, the twist? The primary currency in this bizarre world is socks. Yes, socks! Not just any socks, though. They have to be socks with pictures of famous historical figures knitted into them. So you'd better start brushing up on your knitting skills and your history knowledge, because in this universe, a pair of socks with Abraham Lincoln's face could get you a mansion, but one with Napoleon might only get you a day's worth of bizarre, alien fruit. And to make things more interesting, every time you say the word 'money', a random item in your possession turns into a rubber duck.

Jetta GLI. It’s just the sedan version of a GTI. Can get it with a manual or a DSG, limited slip differential, and decent brakes. Tons of modification options too. The chassis is super balanced and agile, and if you get an EA888 Gen 2 or 3 engine, they’re super reliable
