So I need a car. I'm not the negotiating type and I hate car dealerships. My father says use USAA's car buying service. I do. I get the numbers down, then stroll into South Bay VW for the car I'm looking for. Jaimie meets me out in the lot. I'm already nervous. He lets me test drive, OK. We find a car on the lot that meets most of what I want. (Even the internet guy was cool-they talked me OUT OF options they didn't think I'd need. Definitely a no pressure situation). Then we get to the price point. This guy is a champion. Easy, no haggle deal. Way under invoice. In fact, it was better than the deal thru USAA. I make sure no stone went unturned. I was looking for the "fine print" as they say, in the financing office. There was none. As straight as it gets. Even though I was waiting for a bit, Jaimie offered to buy me lunch. Easy, no issue car-buying experience.
