Have you already signed or not yet? If yes, then Congrats! If not, then I think you have more room to go on the pre-incentive discount. Aim for 10-11% off before incentives, not including incentives. Also be sure the MF is the base MF for this month (0.00086).
I spent 2 hours at the dealership yesterday trying to get a good deal… They told me there’s nothing wrong as far as their obligations. They apologized, and wanted me to take a car instead at 2500/640 12k on a 59k msrp, 4k mileage car.
They wasted two hours of your time, ran your credit app, and proceed to try to sell you a 59K loaner at $709 effective per month. I will pass and proceed to reward them with reviews on social media.
Yea, call the sales manager, the dealer can easily make this right by offering you an apples-to-apples car at the same deal.
I would check their inventory first and know exactly what stock number you’re asking for. If they don’t have something suitable then check nearby dealers they possibly can swap with. If they say the programs have now changed tell them that’s not your problem.
If you don’t get any traction with the SM, then tell them your next calls will be to unleash hell with the dealer GM, Corporate, social media, etc.
I won’t pretend to know what SoCal inventory is like at the moment, but I always push to get in the range of 10% off before any incentives are applied, and base MF on any of my own leases or those I help set up. Not every dealer will meet this, and it really does depend on how many cars they’re working with at any given time.
This is still a pretty shitty situation though. I would be pushing for the GSM to make it right for you else you blast them on social media and review pages.
What incentives do you qualify for? One of my friend in SoCal paid 1500 down and 685/mo for a demo with 10500 miles. He did have loyalty tho and incentives may have been different back then(December if I remember correctly).
