Lets just say my car is showroom condition. How could you NOT look excited because you just met the perfect car ? You say "find every problem" There are NO problems. What are you going to do now ? So now you want to talk economics ? Have you ever met a payroll ? Built a multi million dollar company ? So, you see how I feel about your "sales unskills". You would not make it past the first phone call as I would immediately see thru you. You seem to be young and there is time for you to mature (with training) into a good negotiator. MAX

Why are you so angry. Do my skills scare you. I am young and I think I have summed you up already. I buy cars as a hobby I am not in the automotive industry. I am giving the op some car purchasing advice, I have purchased over 35 cars in my life time and I am only 36 and never have lost a dime on a vehicle. I must be doing something right. Let me make some guesses about you. You are getting near the age of retirement, your boxster is your first p car, you are obsessed and proud of a business you built up, you are not that mechanically inclined and have grown quite bitter over the years. Have I met payroll? Yep! But financially I do not need to worry about wether I wil make it or not. I am talking about purchasing skills not sales. Maybe if you would calm down and try and make friends your "million dollar company"would be a multi - million dollar company. I am not going to get into financial stats as that is rather 4th class but you may want to watch what battles you start. I may be young but it seems you have more growing up to do.

Dear Amschnellsten, Sorry I am late getting back to you as I spend most of my time making sure my employees/partners are going to get PAID. This insures that their families live in a nice home with food ,cash and INSURANCE. Yes, your skills do SCARE me ! Retirement ? NEVER as long as I have the responsibility to my people that of what I promised. This is not an insult but a strong word of advice....go back to school and finish your formal education. It will be worth far more than your used car endeavor. Once you are at that point ,then you will have the chance to....open your own PORSCHE dealership. I promise that I will THEN, and ONLY THEN be one of your good customers ....for life. I promise. PS My company is Multi- million! Go back and read your mistakes. Best Regards, MAX

Max, Million dollar businesses never protected anyone from being condescending and narcissistic.
