Intermediate English listening exercise ยท Closing Deals

Transcript

Salesperson: So you have test-driven both the sedan and the SUV. Which one felt right? Buyer: We both loved the SUV. The space and safety features are exactly what we need for our growing family. Salesperson: Great choice! The Horizon SUV starts at thirty-two thousand nine hundred. With the features you wanted, including the premium safety package and panoramic sunroof, the total comes to thirty-seven thousand five hundred. Buyer: That is above what we planned to spend. Salesperson: I completely understand. We currently have a manufacturer rebate of two thousand five hundred dollars, bringing it down to thirty-five thousand. Additionally, with your excellent credit score, you would qualify for our zero percent APR financing over sixty months. Buyer: Zero percent? That is very appealing. Salesperson: That means your monthly payment would be about five hundred and eighty-three dollars with no interest charges at all. Buyer: Can you include the extended warranty? Salesperson: I can add the five-year extended warranty for just forty-nine dollars per month. Shall I start the paperwork?
