Default Dealer Freebies

I just want to ask if it's normal for a dealer to give the freebie items of the car you bought from him when you have the car has it's 1st maintenance at 7,500km. This is what my Kia dealer told me when I bought from Kia Quezon Ave. a Rio.

AFAIK, they usually give the freebies upon delivery of the unit.

What items are those? Kung corporate giveaways, naubos na ata nung pasko. Kung auto accessory, usually may delay lang kung OEM and out of stock. Pero kung readily available yung part/giveaway, they are supposed to give them to you upon deliver of the unit.

They just recycle their 'promos'. Babalik din iyan soon. Baka gawing Valentine's promo or graduation promo. Just ask what promo they have at this time. If hindi maganda. Abangan na lang ulit ang pagrecycle ng promo.

Yung Kia dati (circa '98). Nag-advertise pa sa diyaryo na 2 years warranty daw sila. Nung bumili kami, biglang naging 1 year na lang ang warranty! Buti na lang naka-file sa akin yung newspaper ad. Wala silang lusot. Ngayon 3 years warranty na lahat ng private use units sa kanila. hehehe.

Right now promo ng Toyota is cash discounts and raffle. The tint (3M upgrade), matting and other small doodads are usually SOP, you just have to discuss it with the sales personnel and sales manager. Pinaka-barat na na-encounter ko so far is Honda. :P

This really gets my goat and is one of my pet peeves. Minsan naman magbibigay ng discount tapos babawiin din dahil sasabihin 'tapos na yung promo na libre ganito ganyan.' O kaya sasabihin sorry ho yung promo para lang sa model na ganito ganyan ... grrr!

They think it's marketing, but it turns me off so much I walk every time maka-encounter ng ganito and either postpone for months or get a totally different car!

Yung sa LTO, I've NEVER bought ANY car that I've paid LTO for .. except for a fee if you're requesting a special license plate like repeating same numbers, etc. Iba iba yata ang rate noon depende kung gaano ka-rare yung plate request mo ... nakalagay kasi mismo sa LTO yung fees.

Sir, Tanong ko lang. Extra charge ba, if I ask for a car paint color? As per their advertisement (Isuzu Crosswind), they mentioned all the available paint colors, but when I asked for black color for Xwind XTi variant. He told me to add 12,000pesos. This is reasonable? also 8,500pesos for LTO (3yrs) .
