Customer Frequently Asked Question
Q: What is your best price?
A1: (It is all in the way you say it) "We are a no haggle no hassle dealership as we do a ton of market research to ensure we can offer our best value up front. BUT we DO negotiate in other ways! We can save you money with the value of the vehicle you are selling us, your APR, and term of loan."
A2: “If we could not get you the absolute best price, I would NEVER expect you to purchase from us.”
Q: Do I need a down payment?
A: "We don’t have set down payments for vehicles; in fact, I see a lot of customers purchase with no money down!"
Q: What is the price if I am paying cash? (Or using their own financing)
A: "The market value is the same whether you pay cash or finance. However the advantage of financing with us is that you get an additional $1000 discount (on pre-owned vehicle only) 9 times out of 10 customers save money with our banks because of our volume!"
Q: Can I finance a vehicle if I don't have credit or never bought a vehicle before?
A: "YES! We work with 70 Banks & lenders along with our FIRST TIME BUYERS PROGRAM. Our lenders base their approvals on your ability to pay not just your credit score."
Q: Can I finance a vehicle if I have bad credit or a repossession?
A: "YES! We work with 70 different banks & lenders along with the CLEMENT CREDIT AMNESTY PROGRAM. They do not base their approvals on just your credit score, we look more at your ability to pay. We understand that bad things happen to good people and not everyone is going to have a perfect situation. We would love to help you reestablish your situation."

Q: Do you guys buy/trade vehicles that don't run?
A: "We will take a vehicle as a trade that doesn't run. If it is local, we can also tow it in for you. However, if you are just looking to sell the car, we would not be able to purchase it.”
Q: I want a $300.00 payment.
