More dealer shenaigans:

There is another little trick that unscrupulous dealers will do if you haven't sat down and executed a buyers order. If you dont have hard copy that delineates the EXACT charges of everything, and you wait till the car comes in , the dealer knows he can bump/add to the price a little bit . Why? Because you're so hot to get the car that you'll except another 100/200/600/whatever charge for something stupid like nitrogen, paint sealsnt, etc!!! BECAUSE YOU ARE IN LOVE WITH THE CAR..

this was recently done to somebody here, when he went in to get the car , they added a $600 bogus charge , because exact charges were not discussed at the time of the order. no buyers order was written and signed.

I might add they try this on youger buyers that they know are chomping at the bit, e.g. those that call every day seeing if the car is there yet, etc...

Naturally this for the first time you've dealt with this dealer, all this goes out the window if you're buying from the same guy over and over, that guy you can trust.
