If you're well-off, just have your lawyer beat the ticket for you. The golden rule and all.
Dealership did a superb job of detailing it, as you can see.
I would suggest that that if you have additional questions about your car’s operation that you meet him at the dealership and keep the relationship “professional” rather than getting too personal with the salesman
When I was in the car business, I often made house calls to clients locally when they purchased or leased a new car from me in order to impress them with the hope of getting referrals from them. But the average salesman would not - which is what concerns me about this guy.

Lovely car, BTW. Is that gray leather? I like light gray or silvery-gray leather but it seems many makes no longer offer it.

Your brother seems totally different than you when it comes to cars, almost phobic. Was he adopted?
Your story seems similar to those told by Isell about people trying to trade a "perfect" car only to discover that there were multiple problems the seller never mentioned.

Yes, light grey interior, called "Rock Grey." The carpets and dashboard are a bit darker, called "Timonium Grey." I like it. I was flexible on exact colors, would have been fine with either a beige or this light grey interior, but definitely did NOT want black (which my Z that I traded in had, and which I'd guess 90% of Audis have, from what I can see.) For the exterior, this Ibis White was my favorite, very clean and crisp. I could have taken Glacier White or one of the lighter silvers. Just did not want black or dark blue or dark grey.
That is very nice. Audi really does interiors well. I am like you in disliking black interiors and find it discouraging that they seem to be in over 90% of vehicles I see. In a convertible that is used on sunny days with the top down a black interior makes no sense to me.

Other than that nice car, enjoy the ride.

My nearest dealer never offered to do any house calls at all. Of course, mine is nearly 400 miles away, but lets not talk about that!

He got one of the newbie sales guys to drive us.....those guys have to knock themselves out to get brownie points.
Our salesguy/Courtesy Vehicle driver took us back in his Yukon. I thought it drove nice, solid as a rock and pretty smooth. The fact he drives 50 and 60 mph zig zagging around downtown traffic didn't impress me. he said his Yukon was garbage....sorry Imid, his words not mine. It is a 2018, $90000 with 7000 miles on it, and the automatic back seats don't fold down and he can't get GM to honor the warranty. Says he loved his last car, a BMW M and he is trading the Yukon for a Sonata.
I'm not saying anything....I am just the messenger.
Oldfarmer, my brother has high anxiety issues and memory isn't good, especially in last 6 months it has faded quickly. My wife and I are helping him back, he has about 12 pairs of pajamas, 4 are new never taken out of bags, 6 pairs of boots, 5 new with tags and the same with shoes. He keeps asking for belts...he had about 50 stored. He had about 12 nightlights....and about 5 bulbs that could fit into the nightlights. He has every bank book he has ever owned and probably every receipt and document.
I found out one thing. Used furniture is worth nothing. Guys will come and look but they are only after some gem you don't know you have. But, they'll offer to remove it all for $95 an hour, and they will give you a few bucks off your bill for any pieces they think they can sell. People don't want the stuff, and dealers can't make a profit selling it.
OF....one more thing, any damage to the car was very cosmetic, it had about 28000 miles on it and it had a heart of gold....if a Hyundai Accent is your thing.

I guess we all get the Inspector Clouseau award for not figuring out your username.
Of course he is. He works at a Hyudai store.
LOL. I don't buy his gripes. I call B$.The car is a 2018. It has less than 12000 miles. Almost everything is covered since it has less than 1 year and 12000 miles. AND it's under 3 yr 36K miles coverage bumper to bumper. Unless something happened to the vehicle that negated the warranty and he bought it...
My service managers are very clear that the warranty goes with the vehicle. And 1 year 12000 miles is golden even for wear items.
2014 Malibu 2LT, 2015 Cruze 2LT,
Not intentionally, but you did misrepresent the car to the dealer.
It has body damage that needs fixing, needs new tires, probably full maintenance, and at least a thorough cleaning inside and out.
All that has to be done to make the car saleable for a good price.

That's right, you go way back to the good old days here too, don't you.
Here's the late lamented Z, my goodbye picture of it a week ago. Owned it 12 years and 2 weeks, but who's counting, right?
It's nice to keep cars that long. It's like owning a dog: You enjoy them while you have them, and then remember them fondly when they're gone. But, nothing gets you over the last one like the next one!
Forester was decimated; no word on the health of the truck's occupants (Forester was parked and, presumably, empty).
Crazy day!
Yes, but there is also a very helpful "how to change out your Audi Key FOB battery" video on there too! They left out one important detail though,but I was careful not to force it.
Your brother is lucky to have you to help out.

He was a lot different than my Mercedes salesman....a different breed.

If it was pristine it would be a new car. Some nicks and dents yes, but, the low mileage counts for a lot....$4500 to $4600 should have been the lowest acceptable price.

He is 10 years older, so big age difference, but, he taught me many valuable lessons in life, and he gave me some good values that made a difference.
We will do what we can......but, going through that apartment is an awful job. One moving consultant said she could have two packers pack and unpack, at $55 an hour each, or $110 an hour for 7 hours. My wife and I are doing it....then the movers move what they have to move, estimate 5 hours at $140 hour, and the junk guys come.....that will probably cost more!
It can't be easy for you managing with your son.......if people haven't experienced these symptoms in family members they have no idea how difficult it can be.

Fair enough, but we have fixed our Keurig, I have found out how to set the Homelink, I found out how to reset the dishwasher, I have fixed toilets, I have got the computer back from the black death.....all from youtube.
Youtube is my friend!
