had my heart set on an audi rs7 but long story short i went to the dealership and lo and behold the person who served me is an old friend i excommunicated myself from because he was a fucking douche.
now i live in a remote area and this is the only audi dealership anywhere near me so i cant just go and buy an audi from another dealer because the services and all that shit need to be done at the dealer you buy it from.
im seriously thinking about getting an m4 now instead over this. i don't want to give this guy a sale.
what do i say? i want to be served by someone else? there were 3 people in there when I went :/
Charles Lewis
just buy the car and get it financed through an external bank, I'm sure he gets incentives for financing deals.
Ayden Brown
just kill him, you will be served by another dealer then also >byuing a new audi
Jayden Hughes
Just drive a couple hours to the next dealer you beta phaggot
Cameron Walker
>buying an audi just don't Get a Volvo if you want a FWD based AWD premium car. Or better yet, get an AMG CLS63 S 4matic. It has MB's AWD which is much better than Audi's.
You know what I love about MB's brochures? They're honest. They even tell you in which aspects the competition does better than themselves. You don't see this from other manufacturers very often.
Benjamin Wright
Just go to a different dealership. >inb4 lol too far
I drove from LA to Norman OK to buy a chebby truck because of an insane deal. >10k off MSRP >got an LT z71 4x4 5.3 for 27.5k
Asher Perry
Get the M4 you can't do skids with the rs7
Elijah Cooper
>not getting a superior CTS-V for less money
Julian Reed
What's the deal with these deals? Are they selling lemons or what?
Dominic Brooks
>borrowing money You poor or something?
Aiden Bennett
OP this man is speaking a lot of sense explain your poor decision of "german engineering" mumbo jumbo
Luke Peterson
>not using debt in your advantage Use bank money and keep yours if the rate is right. Parting with your all your cash at once doesn't have to be a requirement. Sometimes you can get a better deal by financing and using your money to generate more.
Caleb Allen
rs7 looks nice on the inside and the front. rear looks ugly
m4 looks fantastic all around and on the inside
choice is easy m8
Samuel Taylor
>this man is speaking a lot of sense And it's not like it's a little cheaper, it's like 30k cheaper. And you get an interior without an autistic tablet. The design and glossy plastics are questionable but not quite as bad as the Audi's autism.
Lincoln Reyes
>rs7 looks nice on the inside lmao literal VW with leather and a tablet
John Diaz
They're the biggest chevy fleet truck seller. They're practically giving away short bed short cab v6s for 19k.
Nicholas Sanders
But how do they make profits? It baffles me that they're able to undercut the competition so much. Don't most dealers sell
Ethan Turner
Don't most dealers sell for around MSRP?
Christian Rivera
Germans don't take dishonesty lightly.
Camden Allen
lol, best joke ever with dieselgate and the cloud of corruption surrounding mostly VAG
Oliver Gutierrez
When it comes to new cars, dealer make most of their money off of kickbacks and bonuses from the manufacturer and post-sale servicing. They don't really plan on making much money on the sale of the car itself - if that does happen, the salesman gets a nice little commission/bonus himself, which is why you'll have a much easier time getting competitive pricing by going online and cross-shopping with different internet sales departments (they work off of a different comp system).
Kevin Phillips
Interesting. The whole American dealership system is very foreign to me. Here you don't see stuff like haggling when buying brand new, although it's common when buying used from a private seller.
Liam Diaz
If you have the money to afford a Merc i'd say the same
Nathaniel Russell
Why do Audi clutches grab so high?
Nathaniel Garcia
>so i cant just go and buy an audi from another dealer because the services and all that shit need to be done at the dealer you buy it from. What kind of shitty country passed a law requiring this?
Easton Perez
Audi isn't fwd based, except for the A3, is longitudinal front engine with 2 drive shafts just like all actual AWD systems. Or is there something I don't know?
Dylan Murphy
torqueless shit boxes
Luis White
The cars are literally engineered with FWD in mind, which results in the engine being way over the front axle and nothing but understeer
Logan Torres
If he can afford an Audi he can afford a Benz. BTW being able to afford is more than just being able to buy.
Joshua Scott
>buying an Audi
The only thing worse is a Mazda
Aaron Wood
>implying Audi is more expensive to maintain than MB
Hudson Lee
Cadilax look like shit and have a shit stereotype. Rather drive a tsunami raped totalled diahtsu Mira than a Cadillac.
Jayden Anderson
>much less reliable >equally expensive to repair >more of a pain in the ass to work on
>even considering a VW partsbin special with a luxury car price tag kys
Jonathan Torres
even if the average maintenance weren't as expensive as a MB you'd get higher costs on the audi due to more repairs. pic related.
Ethan Gomez
audi a fucking shit
Nathan Gutierrez
Wow, ditching Chrysler really did wonders for MB didn't it?
Gabriel Thomas
Why is Porsche the only brand that truly lives up to the "German = quality" meme?
Jacob Williams
I don't get it. According to reviews Porsche is either utterly unreliable or one of the most reliable brands on this planet. Given the recent VW scandal, I bet Porsche is into shady things.
Parker Foster
German TÜV says they are the most reliable cars.
Lincoln Myers
>recent VW scandal Diesel Porsches are almost nonexistant
Dylan Brown
>how do i reading comprehension
Kayden Cruz
some of the reliability surveys are weighted by repair cost. when a porsche breaks it will on average cost you more to repair it when a civic breaks so that bumps it down the order
Benjamin Martin
Not him, but his point is that VW is utterly corrupt and they buy awards regularly
Grayson Lee
It might depend on if the statistic factors in the price of the repairs. Porsches break rarely if theyre maintained properly, but if they do youre paying a lot.
Nathaniel Walker

Thomas Phillips
how is Mercedes AWD system better than Audi's?
Quattro has been perfected from YEARS of AWD history as well as legendary automotive rally racing history which has led to amazing systems for the entire VW group.
Alexander Wright
Did you even read the links?
Carson Foster
>how is Mercedes AWD system better than Audi's? Superior traction, handling and safety. Audi has better dynamics though.
Hunter Morris
you got a source on that? also fuck you VAG
Dominic Price
Jews, on the other hand, take to lying like a duck to water
Anthony Morris
look son, another victim of VAG's marketing lies
John Roberts
That's to provide more interior space, these aren't sports cars kiddo
Ian Evans
Funny because MB, BMW, Jaguar, RR, Bentley and many others don't need to resort to that bullshit. They're forced to do that compromise because it's a FWD based design, so the axle gets pushed back and so do the wheel wells. And because they have to make provisions to accommodate for the AWD drive shaft that the AWD versions have, you also get the disadvantages of RWD with the bump in the middle. In short, Audi offers the worst of both worlds.
Jose Clark
>RS7 >RS >these aren't sports cars >kiddo
Elijah Miller
idk about american dealerships but it's usually a 50% markup to MSRP so they can drop it withing that margin.
