Carmax and Honda Develop Super Salesman
Posted by: nate

Geek Based on Honda's Asimo robot, Carmax and Honda have developed a new version specifically for use in Carmax showrooms. The new version is much larger however - standing at roughly 44 feet tall. Because of its size, it is far less mobile but much more imposing. According to Thomas Folliard, V.P. of store operations; "We're already seeing an effect from the new Asimo sales force -- many potential shoppers are almost, to borrow a phrase, shocked and awed into buying a car. We're also seeing a larger number of young fans of Japanimation who are coming in to see if they can buy it. The answer is no. Not yet. Maybe next year when we open "GundamMax."
