I get questions and messages from readers every day on my blog. Since it's a big deal, I'd like to introduce the questions, messages and answers of those who are willing to post it on my blog in the future.
So, here is the question I received the other day.
Do you feel that the dealers and shops respond differently depending on the car you drive? Do you care about the car you drive when you go to the dealer?
I see ... Sure, what are you doing ... it's an interesting part.
When I asked my husband immediately, he answered like this.
I see ... Well, I think it's better to go with a good car than to go with a tattered car ...
When I bought Porsche for the first time (981 Boxster GTS) a long time ago, "If you go to a Porsche dealer, it seems better to go with a decent car. It seems better to wear the best watch you haveI thought, "I'm not going to be able to do that.
But now I don't feel like that anymore.
In fact, when I went to the BMW dealer for the first time last time, I went with 992 (Porsche 911 Cabriolet). However"Let's go with Swiss PoI was thinking, but it's impossible because my wife uses Swiss Po, so I think I went with 992 in the parking lot of my house.
I've lost that particularity lately.
And.
If you go by a reasonable car, the shop will tell youNot ridiculousIt may be transmitted, and depending on the sales position, it may give a good impression.
However, in my case, I have not visited so many dealers, but it is said that the attitude of the store has changed blatantly between when I went to Volkswagen Golf and when I went to Porsche 911. There was nothing.
Cars (not just cars) are expensive purchases, and they are not the end of the purchase.Various exchanges with the store continue, such as maintenance after purchase and insurance.So, "whether or not the store feels right when you visit it in the usual way" may be an important point.
By the way, when I asked Mr. H, who is in charge of my Porsche dealer, such a question before,
I don't think it's our shop to change the attitude overtly depending on the car you drive, but the sales staff are also human beings, so it may affect the response in no small way. not.
He said.
To my husband.Before, I was conscious of the cars and watches I was riding in, but why am I not conscious of it now?When I asked him, he answered like this.
Before, I thought it would be better to be aware of some status when going to a certain place ...
But compared to before, I've been visiting luxury hotels, restaurants, and car dealers more often.What you wear and your status may not be as important as you thinkI came to think.
Rather than that, I came to think that how to treat the people in the store and how to deal with them are more important.
For example, no matter how high-class you are wearing, it's still different to take a bossy attitude toward the shop staff and treat them like "I'm a customer."
Even if you are at least dressed, if you have a good attitude and mannersI'm sure the store will feel that and will respond properly.
And.
I see...
By the way, my husband's friend who works at a luxury hotel used to talk about this.
."Really rich people come to luxury hotels with ordinary clothes and get in ordinary cars.And insanely low back. At first glance, it looks like ordinary people, but when I heard it later, I often said that he was the president of a great company. "
got it~. Really rich people, those who are in our transcendental territory, don't have to show themselves very much, and I wonder if they've made three or four laps to reach that area. I thought while listening to the story.
Is there anything you are careful about when you go to the dealership? If possible, I'd love to hear your views these days.
