Dealer ad in my local paper-new gimmick
My local paper usually runs many dealer ads usually on Thurs,Saturday and Sundays.
The Holidays have had dealer ads every day.
There are many dealers in my NYC metro area.
Today,I see a new sales gimmick at a Ford/Nissan dealer.I'm reading the $0 down low payment BUY not lease costs like $249 on a $33K '10 Edge,$124 on a '10 Focus SE,$179 on an '10 Altima etc.
I say to myself that's way too cheap for a payment.
Small print-Bi-weekly payments.WTF!

Unbelievable. I hope they are quoting monthly payment amount, but stating the payment has to be paid twice per month (half each payment). A poor start to customer satisfaction.

I used to see similar ads for GM vehicles, that had a very attractive lease payment, and then a "balloon payment" due at the end of the lease of several thousand. Basically, you pay the down payment+interest at the end of the lease.

From what I've seen over the years, dealer ads are questionable at best, and often more insulting to one's intelligence than a politician's campaign promise. In fact, if dealerships would stop spending money on ape-level ads and gimmicks, they could probably afford to discount their cars more for REAL.

Too funny. The funniest one I've seen here, in south Florida, was a Honda dealer advertising $99 down and $99 a month, purchase, not a lease. The fine print? It was $99 a month, "FOR THE FIRST TWELVE MONTHS"
