Kevin2772 Report post Posted April 19, 2011 KMR and I stopped by MAG a couple weeks ago. Harvey Ford was very friendly and came out to greet us (mind you the fact that we were in Kevins gallardo might have helped that fact) but there was one other sales rep who was always very friendly to me anytime I stopped in to look around and would talk with me. But besides those two the only experiences I ever had were glaring eyes and cold shoulders from people who think selling the cars makes you elite.

Scotty Report post Posted April 19, 2011 Lol, I walked in one Saturday with jeans and a T-shirt and was asking about a GT3 RS price, as I was just curious and was told, if i had to ask what it costs, maybe I could not afford it. Big mistake......... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have nothing but compliments for that guy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, he doesn't have the pull to do anything real with the dealership. They have a painfully small inventory -- last time I was there, one of their three Lambos was a 2009 factory demo car that had been left over from the Greg Nelson days. Of course, it was still listed at $200k+ I've heard from other LP members about dropping off a Lambo for service and being told they can't even test drive another Lambo. They don't do any events until corporate mandates one, and even then, they rarely do them. No follow-up with customers for service or sales. It's amazing.

Gilligan740 Report post Posted April 19, 2011 Harvey is back? I thought he went over to Ferrari? I have nothing but compliments for that guy. They demoted him to the pre-owned BMW store until Steve Evans left and went to Byers. Then Harvey was called back over to run the exotic store. IMO, they haven't treated him very well.

IMO, they haven't treated him very well. Sounds like it. He probably wasn't pushy enough for them. Which a good salesperson is not. Hopefully he makes his nut there.

Scotty Report post Posted April 19, 2011 I was hoping you'd follow up with the story about the end result.... I always love to hear how those types of stories end! I drove to Cleveland two days later and bought the car, then drove back to MAG to buy a Porsche Shirt.............Since then I have driven into the dealership with over 10 cars not purchased from them. I bought two Lambo's from the local dealer and when he went out of business and MAG took over I quit buying locally. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gilligan740 Report post Posted April 19, 2011 It's pretty sad that this thread is probably the most exposure they've had to the Lamborghini community since they bought the franchise. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin2772 Report post Posted April 20, 2011 Harvey mentioned to KMR and I that he didnt like the way they were running the business and spoke about what potential they could have if they carried more used inventory instead of trying to always worry about just having new cars on the lot. I would think thats a fair assessment. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think thats a fair assessment. It's not only the new cars but the fact that they never have more than 2-3 Lambos at any given time. How many did you see when you went?
