Un-used-car-salesman-like-advice did me good

I was a cash buyer looking for a car for my daughter and had seen many cars and dealers over a couple weeks, but stumbled across a car at ECAS that had my name all over it. Not an impulsive person, but figured what the heck--if I can get it financed, I can still get my daughter a car. Went to ECAS to see car. Can't say I was happy with the first salesman whose name I won't say-- don't know what he thought--but I told him no, I wouldn't be back from my test drive in 20 minutes; I'd be at least 40, so maybe he thought I planned something nefarious with his car? (A word of explanation--the reason I was looking for a car for my daughter was that I had bought her a terrible car the year before, that I test drove for only 20 minutes. Worst car purchase I ever made, but her money paid for the car, and I was attempting to redeem myself.) At any rate, he passed me on to Sante, one of the owners. Did the (long) test drive and really liked the car. Now my credit isn't very good, but I called Sante back after looking at two more cars, and told him if he could get me financed, I'd buy the car. Came back to dealer, did paperwork--he found me financing, which was not great but I was willing to do. Now comes the best part: Sante told me to go to (my bank) and get financing. I told him I couldn't; he said yes you can--we do business with them all the time, and I promise you'll walk out of there with a check--which in the end, I did. Here's the thing: he had a sale in hand, but advised me to do better for myself, knowing I might reneg on his car. He saved me a BUNDLE with that un-used-car-salesman-like advice. In the end, I bought the car (2009 VW Jetta). They even did some work to the brakes and gave me an oil change that day. That was last April, so I've had the car for 10 months now. Car is great--one of my best used car purchases (and I hate used cars), but have four kids, so what's a mother to do? Still need to replace my daughter's car though...
