isnt it sad a 5k gross on an RS4!! i am hating life! i do internet so i get paid on volume not on gross though. so for me when i start to hit 17, 18, 20, 25 a month thats where the money comes from. so i sell 99% of everything AT INVOICE with no profit what-so-ever for the dealership. just my job. Audi's have nothing in them period.

I dont want to bring this thread back from the dead but I was reading this with my collegues over lunch and we thought it was pretty funny. First off let me say I am a sales consultant as well. I sell Nissan. I started april 1st and have 112 cars out the door to date. (8/17) In 17 days I have 16 cars out. I am the top sales at my store and out sell and out gross everyone and I'm on track to make around $135k this year. I am averaging 23 cars a month working 55 hrs a week. Whatever that works out to be an hour im sure its very decent for a 20 year old.
As far as BMW goes I love the product, however I would never sell it. In a few year when im in my mid 20s I want to goto Lexus. Does anyone know what the markup is in a lx400h or a ls430?.. about 9-11k markup. Sell one of those at sticker your profit on the front end is about $2000. At out lexus store the top three sales constultants are making over $240k a year. Yes 240k a year. Average sales guys make about 150k working reg 40 hr work weeks. BMW has a very small markup (its not far off from Nissan) and ever thought its a great product, its harder to move. If anyone really wants a easy way to sucess and you love cars, and get along with people well, then this industry is a goldmine. I recently got my BMW lease (employee discount) and also just put a nice down payment on a 2 family house that I am renting out to 2 families. I am profitting $800 a month from that on top of my commissions and bonuses. In all honestly I am not trying to brag by any means I am just trying to shed some light on the industry.

I wouldn't be a car salesman or at least not make a career out of it. Nothing extraordinary about the pay, long hours, dealing with tedious morons and the stigma of having to say I sell cars for a living. Life is too short

The real money (for most people) is in management... Sales Managers and F&I Managers can make some good money with a good pay plan in a good store. General Sales Managers and General Managers will definately make a good income in a good store... Unless you are one of the top producing salespeople that regularly puts out big volume and makes big gross, you're going to make more money in management. Rarely, I do hear about great salespeople taking a pay cut going into management, but for most people this isn't the case.

I would love to sell BMWs if I could do it like 2 Saturdays per month. I like my current 4 day work week too much.

It is sad how many people wont even go into a dealership and nickle and dime you to death and they dont even know if they like the car yet!!!! We get so many emails with false contact information that are these "or else" scenarios. Like, I want this car at $500 over invoice or else I am going somewhere else! But, they are so paranoid for some one to contact them, that they leave a false phone number and the wrong email address. Consumers think they are getting smarter, but in fact they are getting dumber. It is quite sad, I dont understand why people wont even try it before they buy it, a car is one of few products that you can do that!

IraXI, congrats! good job for doing well for yourself, but the dealership you work at must be very busy, because I know some people who work at a chrysler store in a very busy area and can sell Dodge, Jeep or any Chrysler car and the top guy there makes $60,000 a year. At this store they used to make around $110,000 for the top 2 guys. Live it up while you can!
