Lastly, all of these people did choose their profession. You would hope most understand the positives, negatives, and the sacrifice. Many of us outside of the military also "sacrifice" too with high levels of stress (which sucks years out of your life span), lots of travel, long hours, time away from friends, family, missed events, etc. I'm not saying it's comparable but no job is perfect.

The least people can do is treat them right here, which is the heart of the issue in what this dealership did.

That's a great end to the story. My only concern would be if the paint would be as good as factory, not in view, but in quality, since it won't be going through the same process as the factory paint. |

Interesting. This thing really had to come back to bite them hard in the ass before they did anything and from what I’ve read I’m guessing the fact they have the car back has more to do with the unsuspecting buyer bringing it back and telling them he wanted nothing to do with it than anything good they initiated.

So the CEO of a dealership (group I'm guessing), doesn't review and understand the numbers his company generates on a monthly basis?
Lol, yeah, right... |

IDK man, he ax'ed his GM, Sales manager and salesperson. Who else would you want to lose their job over this? He picked his GM sure, but that doesn't mean he knows the day to day on every single thing.

Their response is nothing more than cookie cutter bs. Also, the buyer still wants to pay this much for THAT car? lol smh & I own a Hellcat. If mine was $100k new in 2018 when I bought it, I would not even have looked at them.

Every CEO knows the margins of the business. It's literally why they are in business.

Didn't happen in a vacuum though, it was either management's intent, or management's lack of control that led to it.
