Okay, not to sound too harsh, but typically, I give about the same amount of credibility to dealers as I do politicians and lawyers. So, I really can care less whether they think my offer is credible or not. You say that the Lucerne is overpriced, what makes any other car different? You were a dealer, but I could almost say for certain, that you or anyone else (other than the actual car lot owner) really knows what those cars are worth. So, in reality, maybe my offer was crazy, but I would rather beat the dealer at his own game, than to allow him/her to snooker me into a possible bad deal.
