Free Stuff From Dealer

Desi · 02-01-2008, 10:10 AM

I got two keychains. I actually wasn't going to get anything, but when the salesman handed me my keys, my dad looked at him and (jokingly) said "What, no keychain? Come on, my Chevy came with a bowtie keychain..." The salesman disappeared and came back with two, one for me, and one a an upgrade for my dad from his chevy bowtie keychain.

I got a couple key chains when I went picked up my car. But my car did came with the wheels locks and Carpet mat that I didn't need to negotiate.

yeah, i got the usb integartaion, so i am looking for the y-adapter

Locking wheel bolts and regular carpet should come standard,

you are buying from a luxury car dealer, you should expect this....

anderson007 · 02-01-2008, 04:16 PM

The Y cable comes with the car when you order 6FL, the LED flash lights also come with the car. Although not all cars have them in. So your not really getting anything for free.
Where I work it depends on how much of a beater you are as to what you get, I gave a really nice customer of mine a BMW mountain Bike. Thats the most expencive thing I have gifted so far.

Y cable is not included over here in Canada and that's why our 6FL option is $50 cheaper too.

Oh, I completely forgot. I also got a "Fruits & Passion Gift Basket" full of kitchen products from Otto's. The salesman told me they used to give wine, but the figured that's probably inappropriate for a car dealer. I gave the basket to my mom,

VLE92 · 02-01-2008, 05:50 PM

keychains, and rubber floormats...oh, and also a bottle of motor oil

BMur · 02-01-2008, 09:53 PM

Bloody hell! I paid $100+ for the Y-cable. Bastards!

eecc · 02-02-2008, 03:41 AM

yeah...2 keychains, floormats, wheel locks, litre of oil...should be pretty standard stuff.

a.t · 02-02-2008, 11:18 PM

ChaneRZ · 02-02-2008, 11:28 PM

the salesman told me the carpet one cost more, thats why he didn't give me the rubber mats.. MY bullshit alarm was on when he said that, but oh well, i rather get a lower monthly rate then whine about not getting rubber mats..

+ rubber mats looks ugly .. but thats just me.

vpfreedude · 02-12-2008, 03:57 PM

I live in Calgary so I was lucky to get my car. Delivered 10 days late, numerous broken promises by the dealer and the sales guy says "the least I could do is give you & your wife each a keychain". Big of him on a $70k car that they didn't even deliver clean (wax residue all over the place).

animaspartan · 03-03-2008, 08:20 PM

Since I was the thread starter, I think it is appropriate for my to chime in.

I received the y-adapter and rubber mats.
