What's the added value of dealerships? They feel like parasites.
The mere idea of having to negotiate prices like in an flea market is disturbing and disgusting to me.
I want to be treated fairly and as well as the next guy.
Fixed & open construtor prices and warranties, online customisation and ordering should be the only norm.
- ericjmorey 2y agoWarranty repair is the only advantage.
- shiroiushi 2y agoThat's not an advantage: in countries where the manufacturers own the dealerships (i.e., every country not named "USA"), they do warranty repair there too. There really is no advantage to independently-owned dealerships, except maybe in bribes to local politicians.
- nothercastle 2y agoDuring normal times they add no value and create negative value for everyone. But during a downturn or when a manufacturer makes a dud model dealers can be forced to buy up excess and slowly feed it into the market as well as absorb the losses
- coliveira 2y agoDealerships are owned by rich people and they contribute a lot of money to local politicians. That's why they won't go away even though they are nothing but parasites.
