Is it better to sell Cheap cars or Expensive cars?

As a car salesman? Some people would think cheap cars but people with bad credit get declined often. I know this because my credit sucks and i'm almost always declined for cars. I'm sure this makes it tougher to get a sale right?

This has me thinking, i want to sell cars. Should selling luxury cars like mercedes and bmw be better than selling hondas and toyotas?

Salesmen earn via base pay plus commission. So it just makes sense that more expensive cars will generate higher commission.

But Luxury cars don't sell as much as cheaper cars. There are much more poor and average income people compared to rich people who can afford luxury cars.

You'll have to sell like 3 or more cheap cars to make as much as selling 1 luxury car.

They all tell me they make the most on used cars because they sell quickly and have better markup. I knew this car salesman that sold BMW's but quit and said he made more at the Honda dealer.

I don't know regulations for car sales person but bad credit will not help get the job. Given you will be exposed to very sensitive financial and personal information.

Its tough to sell any kind of car because the dealers hire way more salesman than they need.

New salesman are hired to sell to friends & family,. When you run out and you arent selling enough, they push you out if you don't quit on your own.

  • Why does it appear used cars are more expensive than new? For example. I'm looking at a 2019 Honda City, new it's $17,990 drive away if I look on car sales the 2017 model is even $19,000. Ok the 2019 is a manual price but that's a huge difference and 2 years on. Please tell me what I'm missing?
  • Which brands of cars are more reliable and less expensive to maintain? I have been driving American cars, Honda, Toyota and they're easy to find parts when something go wrong. I would like to buy a Volkswagen beetle or a European car. Like 2004 or 2003 Volkswagen beetle. If something go wrong, does it cost more to fix it? Is maintenance more expensive than a Honda or a Toyota yaris. I know the Honda and Toyota last forever after a few hundred thousand miles and they re still in excellent running condition with regular services. What do you guys think?
