I agee with jkelly if it is exactly what you want and the things you want fixed can be done to your satisfaction, get it. If not...WAIT, you will be happier in the long run. Mine is on order because no one had exactly what I wanted.

So your one of the test drivers dealers fear...................JK.

In the same fashion of reasoning...............taking a test drive in a particular vehicle (not the model but that actual car or truck), one that is test driven as designed and built, without having an unexpected failure or issue while doing so................should lead a person to believe, that particular vehicle in of itself...........................has passed with flying colors, a potentional user/purchasers quality control test.

Taking it back and parking it............and then buying from inventory or special order any other particular example of the same make and model whether milage free or not.............means absolutely nothing objectively in regards to any unknown issue it may have particular to it.

Oh, and just a question along the way... What do they tell the guy who goes and buys the other car they're ripping the chrome rims off of? Sorry, your sticker doesn't match your car but we'll knock the $470 off the price. There's just some shit you don't do.

They actually had a dealer car with em with only 156 miles on the tires and wheels so they just switched those out. So don't worry, nobody is getting screwed, but watch your language!! They'll get ya it happened to me for letting the s word slip. Oh and for an UPDATE for everyone, I got the car, I had another thread up but i'll probably start a new one for pics and stuff as soon as I can take some!!

You're probably right. I've been here since Christ was born and I get a little carried away at times.

In any case, congrats on your Camaro. GREAT color choice by the way; not that I'm bias in any way...

At least you had the opportunity (even though you didn't) to see it on a Camaro before you ordered it. Imagine sticking your wiener out for 36k ordering a color you hope looks good on the car in October- 4 months before production even started...

To be fair, I did go see it on some other GM vehicles prior to ordering but you just never know how it's going to look on a particular car.
