SUPER BAD NEWS...Owner of Dealership sold the car I was waiting for to another dealer
So I took over a person "pre-order car" months ago which was a 2SS/RS IBM... Been checking with them weekly since the day I took it over...
So I seen my vin/car popup on the http://camaro.spasticsquirrel.com/ site.....so I called them today to see if they got the invoice and to let them know I would come there now to knock out ALL paperwork.... he said give him a second to check and that he will call me right back.... So im here sitting watching tv waiting for the call back with (GOOD NEWS)..that didnt happen...Got ALLLLLLLLL BAD NEWS!!!... Bad news to make me want to throw this computer screen out the window to let off steam... He told me that THE OWNER of the dealership sold the car I took over to a dealership in Wisconsin for $5000over MSRP...and that the car is in transit there and NOT here to Michigan.... I am MAD right now and, money in hand, and NEEEEED a Camaro...ANYYYYY Camaro!!!! I had two salesmen that help me each time I called or went in, and now BOTH of them are looking for any 2SS thats not Sold at one of their 3 dealerships here in MI.... Can you good guys here tell me what I should do....or how I can make this work in my Fav... They owe me SOMETHING since I was THIS close to gettin the car.... ALSO im willing to TAKE ANY color 2SS AUTO you guys can find me here in Michigan!! Never cared about the color since I was gettin a custom paint job later this year, BUT I did fall in love with IBM...I feel screwed!! Should I stick with this Dealer or should I find something on cars.com or the other sites and jump into one of them??? Can you guys help turn this from SUPER BAD....to....GOOOOOD!!! thanks for reading and the help... |

Wait and see what they can do for you and then make the decision. Play it cool until they tell you they CAN'T help and then blow up like a banchee and cause a huge scene.

Find a new dealer. You are now in the category of a very unhappy customer. Statistics say that unhappy customers NEVER buy again from the dealer and will tell an average of 9 other people about their unhappy experience. If it were me, I would set a goal to tell every single person I know and I would leverage the internet to let 9 million people know. This is unethical behavior and should have serious consequences.

Does honor and integrity not mean anything anymore? This makes me so sick to hear many of you getting screwed. Making what should be a wonderful experience a nightmare. The good news is, once you get this car it will go a long way in repairing this terrible experience. I wish you the best of luck.

Buff Whelan in Sterling Heights, MI sells for MSRP, no mark up. See John Trotto or John Webber. Both are stand up guys that will not screw with you. Don't know if they have any in stock, but they could certainly order one for you. Tell them I sent you! Phil

That you even stopped to think of staying with this POGE of a dealership, means you need to take a trip to the mirror, take a looooonnnngggggggg look, and slap the shiite outta yourself!

Happy to report I WAS NOT the dealer in WISCONSIN that bought the car. We don't do that - but I do know someone that does! It would be interesting to get the vin to see where it turned up!
