It’s funny to me that we are having this discussion this week because I recently got a different car I use the term different because well it's, not a new car and it’s that my dream car or the exact car I wanted. My car was totaled in June when I was hit by a drunk driver. I never really thought too much about how my car could be different from other cars of the same model and year. What I did not know was that my car was a demo model and had a lot of added features that most in its class do not have. So like most people these days I shopped the internet daily had an app on the phone alerting me to cars like mine for sale. I would get an alert go check it out and have to deal with the used car salesmen shim sham. Oh, I would hear so much crap and hustle. …show more content…
I didn’t see or hear a lot of reciprocity used. However, everyone is an authority every one of the salespeople I encountered was the all-knowing of knowers. They all had been selling cars since Christ was a child and had sold the lord his self his car just last week. Now I could not care less because I wanted a certain car with a list of features and if they didn’t have it I was moving on, but oh they could show me a car I would like better. A better car than my old car. They would pull the scarcity lines out this other car was so cool there is not another one like it for the price, and it is a better car. When I would decline they would try the old you're smart women let me show you, and you can decide, or they would express how they know too well how replacing a car is hard because we get attached to our cars. It was very exhausting to deal with. It came to the point that I would tell them straight up I am here to look at this car. I do not want to drive, look, or hear about any other cars you may have to sell me. Don’t waste my time or yours. It seems to work pretty
I felt that this response was the least ethical. Firstly, the salesperson would have taken advantage of the customer for personal gain. Secondly, a salesperson should not assume anything about the customer. If a salesperson were to assume anything, it should be through analysis of the customer’s needs. Even then it shouldn’t be an assumption, but an educated decision.
The day started off like any average day, I took a hot shower, got dressed and got prepared for the day. It wasn’t until I sat down and started eating my bowl full of cheerios with extra sugar, that I realized what was actually happening. Today would be the day I finally bought my first car, after a year of hard work and conservative economic decisions.
The racecar was not the most creative or what some would call beautifully designed. But the owner and his father worked for weeks on that little wooden block to turn it into something the ten-year-old boy could be proud to race. A previous race showed what needed to be done for a car to make it in the top five. After careful designing, sanding, painting, and graphite the car was finished.
Given that the number one objective that corporations are after is profit above all else, and the main expectation of a salesman is to bring in sales for the corporation, this makes the objective of actually helping people find an automobile that will improve their quality of life come in at least in second place by default. Many times, car salesman are tempted to make a sale to person, even though they know the person cannot actually afford the vehicle, to achieve both their quota of sales for the company and also to make their commission. While some may have no problem at all doing this, the person we are imagining may be left feeling that his job requirements go against his moral and ethical standards; as well as a feeling that he could be doing something else that benefits people in a greater
dissonance, I decided to store the car at my parents house and only drive the car infrequently. I
The moment I walked onto the car lot the aggressive sales men swarmed me like a pack of wolves, perceiving me as an easy prey; the young naïve girl to whom they would make their next big
really neat car that not many other people had. Than the next thing I would do

Try watching television without being subjected to countless car advertisements trying to lure you into their dealership. Car advertisements are everywhere in the media and decide what car fits your persona. They coerce you into believing you are not whole until you have the car of your dreams. Car manufacturers like Cadillac and Mercedes make people of wealth think they need to spend excessive amounts of money for a luxurious vehicle just to establish themselves and show their wealth. A business executive might buy a Beamer so he appears more successful to his clients, after all cars are the ultimate American status symbol. In the media there are shows like MTV cribs where they frequently show you their exclusive car collections and because of the way these individuals are portrayed as ric...

Buying a car is usually our second biggest investment after our home purchase and most of us will do it more than once in our life. There is something emotional about cars, it represents our taste and style, our economic status and our character. Some women even claim that a car is a man’s extension of his reproductive organ. One the other hand (the good hand :-) there are women out there that might express their exhibitionism and extravagance by choosing to drive a red flashy car for the whole world to notice them.
About a month later, my dad bought another old Honda in beautiful condition, and about a month after that I bought a ...
In addition to the car model and color choices were decisions on options packages. And having seen the "pimped out" SUVs on MTV Cribs, complete with two or three LCD screens (one in the dashboard for the driver, of course), DVD player, speakers costing more than my college education, GPS navigation systems similar to those used in the Space Shuttle, heated seats, and 20 inch chrome wheels, my eyes were wide with opportunity. After checking on financing and whittling down the alternatives to what I might really need or want, I ended up with the most basic of standard packages.
