I don't think so... Told them they would get the check when I had inspected the car.

Have any of your dealerships tried this?

Aside from the convenience factor of getting paperwork done early, I'm sure it helps the dealer in some other way... such as getting the sale in before the end of the month or locking you into the sale (so you can't back out once you inspect the vehicle... because you already paid for it).

I ordered mine 2/28 and gave a check for a thousand to the dealership the same day. Yet they said they wouldn't do anything with the check until the car got here, and even after that they said they will give it back to me or put it towards the car, unless i backed out then they would deposit it!
