My guess is 18. I don't mean to sound like an ass... But they'll more than likely put you in a secretorial type of position. It would probably be a shock to the average wealthy middle-aged individual to see a girl your age trying to sell them a Lamborghini.

Unless she studies up on the car and actually knows her ****. I would be impressed is just once a salesman could actually answer all my questions without having to run away and consult with someone else.



I asked what the BHP was on the Audi I was buying. Salesman had no clue and had to ask. I cannot understand why its so difficult to know your product line inside and out.



Know the car inside and out and you'll be an asset to the dealership.

Do you have a drivers license yet? https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/blink.png



This may be a pre-requisite!

My dad wrote a nice letter to Mazda because I sold him his Protege; the dealer didn't do ****. They didn't even fill the damn gas tank like they were supposed to.

Yea I had actually written all that out explaining what you did but decided to shorten my post.



It's sadly true though... At your age, you'd have to overcome the "appearance" with an impecable knowledge about the cars.

I would think you would need several years of experience to sell a Ferrari. thats an exotic and you are dealing with people that are well versed in exoticry. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/wacko.png

Yes, and that is why Tommy Hilfinger bought a Enzo and was complaining it didnt have all the luxury items he was used to and he was very concerned that Ralph Lauren had not bought an Enzo yet and wanted to know why.



Dont be fooled a majority of your "high end" buyers are buying for status and nothing else. There are a few that buy because of what the car can do but I would venture a guess and say they are far and few between.



I would think a mid 50's man would like a hot 18 y/o to be his salesperson especially if said 18 y/o acted like he was sexy because he had a big wallet.

Yeah, my wife (when she was 16) sold a volvo to her mom, and knew more about the car than the salesperson. The guy offered her a job as soon as she was old enough.

problems:



-there arent many hot 18 year olds getting into selling cars



-not many high end dealerships are selling cars let alone hiring



I would start out by trying to sell Hyundai or something and move up

when you gain knowledge of how banks and all that other good stuff works

And by helping you with customer service skills. Customers can be pesky as ****, and down right rude sometimes. I know, I worked at wal-mart for 2 years in a country redneck smib smurf town.

Who knows, you might get the job? How old are you though? Age never really matters anymore when trying to get a job.

Never seen that show on MTV called Rich Girls. They followed around Tommies girl and some other fat dumb rich girl and you got a glimpse into the lives of obscenely rich teenagers.



I got sucked into it. I was amazed at how pathetic these kids were. Yes - I almost punched my TV when Tommy went to pick up his Enzo and was complaining it didnt have power windows!! He buys this car having no clue what it stands for or what it is capable of. He bought it because he could.



Tommies daughter is very doable in some strange way too......



I am going to hell.....
