you got cheated. Depending on the amoutn of deposit you put down they're simply collecting interest on it. Just take the deposit back and walk out. That 's what I wouldve done after 2 weeks, not 4 weeks.

Did you get a VIN for the car they are "ordering" ? When a dealer needs to order a car for you always get the VIN and the exact options(two-digit code) on paper so they can't find you another one just to get you off their back.

you sound like a newbie on buying cars maybe you should try a service like carmax.com where they sell cars with "no-haggle" price. We have them here in VA. Good Luck.

damn sorry to hear that man....but where is this dealership anyways and are you a first time buyer or something:confused:

get your $$ back and go to another dealership??

[CeLicAxTrD]

nah its not my first time.... they are trying to say that my refund is non refundable because i signed the contract which doesnt have a date when i should receive the car.......

[CeLicAxTrD]

no more opinions?

Bull you got a verbal contract with the sales person stating that you will get it October, eventhough it is not on paper there was a verbal contract. Tell them you will bring them to small claims court because they renig on the verbal contract, so a breach of contract by them cause the contract to be invalid thus you are intitle to get your money back. Don't underestimate verbal contract as long as you have a witness (someone that went with you to put down payment) you have more witness than them.

Complain like thier is no tomorrow. I have found this to always work. Go into the dealership and make an A$$ of your self right on the sales floor. When I worked retail I hated when people did this but they always got their way! If you make a scene infront of other customers the customer will question wheather they chose the correct dealrship or not. The first the a good manager will do is to get you to calm down and will give you just about anything to do so. At the very least do not back down until

1) You have your money back
or
2) You have gotten them to lower the price on your car and have a estimated date of delivery in writing.

Cool thanks alot.... im gonna make a huge scene now hahaha

[dragonfrog]

Great advices!!! I couldn't have recommended better. Small claims court would DEFINITELY get some attention.

So what's the update? I'm really interested on how things go..

[AznThugg2002]
