maybe ur company got alot of rich ppl mah. then also will like think that u must be quite rich and entertain u lor. but i dare to bet that not everyone will treated that way in that kind of showroom.

strangely, i think only those "half-baked" salesmen and companies with a "half-baked" culture will do this. The ultra-rich are not ppl u can judge by one look.

 

my mom's boss has a declared wealth of $46M....when u see him he looks like any ah pek with old checked shirt and old pants....when he visited my house, when he took off his shoe OMG his socks got many small holes. waliao eh....

 

In contrast, it's the half-baked junior executives that dress like they are worth million$.

 

Salesmen who serve the very rich know this and treat any walk-in customer the same, whether they "appear" rich or not.

not every saleman behave in this way. if u are in ur 20years old+. if u go in the normal showroom like nissan . i bet they mostly will come and entertain u . but u try going to merc , BMW , or all those ex cars. i am quite sure that seldom will have ppl to come out and entertain u . unless u drive a expensive car into their showroom. if not i dun think they will entertain u lor.

Yes it may be true that my company is flooded with millionaires but it's very simple, as long as you look proper and take a real interest in the car, not like somebody who is out for a free spin , i'm sure they will provide a fair level of service.

 

A good brand is able to "create" a right culture and customer profile. In other words, it has the ability to attract the type of customers that it wants to attract.

 

Generally, a rich Ah Beng will probably not choose to buy a Porsche, maybe becos he knows that he wont fit the culture of the brand. He may own a Porsche but he cannot exude the image of a Porsche owner. He would probably prefer to buy a top end BMW or Mercy which is more mass marketed.

 

That's the power of branding.

 

The Porsche is also like a cigar, it's a unique acquired taste. Some hate and some love. Guess that's what makes it a "Dream Car" choice yet very attainable by many people's standards.

[gohjohan]

Used to be the '97 Toyota Camry with 2.2L engine. The styling is nice with power. Pity my dad traded it away for the '05 2.0L model.

 

Dreamy car

Ferrari F430. Too bad no space to use its potential.

 

Reality

I went to the Motorshow and saw the Lexus LS 460.

That one is also nice. If I get it now and fulfil my dream, I'll be one big step less to fulfilling my other dream of being a millionaire.

You crazy? You're going to get a good thread locked again

 

Jokes aside, it sure is good to dream, especially when it costs nothing

[Throttle]

It 's good to dream especially when it costs nothing, i agree.

 

I find it's better to dream something at least vaguely achievable and then we can work towards it.

 

If always dreaming of things out of this world becomes simply building castles in the air.

hahaha.... I also did dream of getting a Honda. The Honda Legend! Too bad now the Accord has a 2 litre-plus engine, so power wise, it's just below the Legend.
