Hi all,
So I called the Short Hills store on Thursday last week to try and place an order "off the menu" for LR RWD car. Guy on the phone said off menu means we can only do inventory cars and all the ones I wanted (black + aero) were in Canada or states too far away to be purchased without a 2k transportation charge. Then I asked about demos. We found an MSM + aero RWD LR demo that has 2,000 miles on it and is $1k off.
Later on here I read that apparently the guy gave me BS and in fact I can order a brand new car. So the question now is…what should I do?
Benefit to getting the demo car is that it's physically in NJ (Cherry Hill), no games about delayed delivery dates, etc, plus already updated to latest software, etc. But it *is* a demo car so who knows how much it's been abused. Plus due to incorrect info from the rep I am ultimately paying an extra $500 that I didn't want to spend just to get a different color which I don't care that much about. New car would have updated glass on the roof and potentially better seats (when did that change go in?). Anything else?
The VIN on the demo is 44xxx and the build date per the guy on the phone in Springfield is June. Should I demand they honor the June doc fee of 1k (as opposed to 1200)?
