Fyi, in these situations, it usually goes to whoever is first to sign the docs, not who drove the car first or expressed interest in it.
Theyāre being upfront with you so if they wanted to bait and switch theyād have run credit and asked you to drive.
Iām glad yāall are so optimistic. I hope itās all true and that the other buyer gets the GT instead.
I should have mentioned this in my original post. The reason why I suspected a bait and switch is because there are a couple reviews online for this dealer where they got the bait and switch.
So far every other dealer Iāve contacted has barely come down in price. You would think they would want to get rid of 90+ day old inventory. One quoted me $31k AFTER incentives.
Stay optimistic but donāt let your guard down.
Bait and switch usually involves getting someone in the door.
It takes advantage of someone having āinvestedā their time and effort to get there, and have internally high expectations of leaving the dealership with their new car
Dealer sent over lease contract and monthly is actually $317 due to tax not being included in original numbers. Iām still quite happy with that. Everything else stays the same.
Dealer offered to deliver the car for free and as they were having it detailed they noticed a small but deep ding they needed to fix before delivery. I was sent a pic and itās about the size of a dime if not smaller but down to the metal so it requires paint.
Car is now scheduled to be delivered this Monday. Iāll be sure to inspect it closely along with the paperwork and provide an update.
I can see the monthly sales tax of $8.97 in the original quote.
You didnāt ask for additional discount for the repaint and stuff?
Glad to hear everything worked out. The car was brand new, correct?
Why does he have to renegotiate over a tiny ding that theyāre fixing prior to delivery?
Car is brand new. 22 miles on the odo
Yeah, not renegotiating for the ding. I feel like Iām getting a great deal already, donāt want to push it.
Not full renegotiateā¦they marked up the price $10/month even though tax was included in the original quote. May try to get them to throw some freebiesā¦
Maybeā¦ or maybe theyāll reconsider this car now currently under negotiation as āunsoldā and sell it to the next guy who walks in.
Car was delivered today!! The repair and paint work is top notch. Final numbers all checked out. $317/mo, $0 DAS (only paid the first month up front). I had originally stated it would be $308/mo, but after looking at the numbers that original quote had the residual at 43% when it is actually 42%, so $317 is correct. I still cant believe I was able to score this deal and it would not have been possible without this forum. Thank you all!!
Please post the full details in the Shared Deals subsection
