Help me buy an $80,000 car

Please tell me you voiced your displeasure. They knew it wasn't an $80k car, not even a $60k car. Now it calls all their cars into question, and they have a lotta cars!

It doesn’t matter what the dealership knows about the value of the car. They are going to sell it for the highest price possible. If some sucker comes in there and offers $70k or $75k for it, they are likely to say sold! Doesn’t matter if it’s only worth $35k. As long as an uninformed person is willing to shell out big bucks for it, why would they only sell it for $35k??

Why does pretty well every city have multiple non car brand affiliated small (ie: less than 50 car) used car dealerships? Most of those cars have been wrecked or have salvaged titles that the main stream dealerships wouldn’t even consider putting on their lots. Those fly by night dealerships exist since there are still a lot of uninformed car buyers looking for a car but either don’t have the knowledge or credit (or both) to buy from a reputable dealer.
