So I'm pissed at the dealer, but someone else is happy to swoop in, pay, and give glowing reviews of the dealer. The dealers know this.
Agreed. Word would travel relatively fast as it's a fairly small community and it would kind of take on a life of it's own. I for one would love to see management from one of the so called arrogant/gouging over MSRP dealers see a running total of sold GT3's move to other dealers. Maybe it's wishful thinking but my guess is if a dozen or two GT3's sales moved from one of those dealers to smaller lesser known but upstanding dealers it would make an impression on them. Get some allocations to move away from them etc.

indeed. and RL, you should all write to carlsen b/c i am still waiting for my RS to be purchased at 10% back of their actual cost. that may make me go back again. i do mean it seriously about u all sending them email, text, phone calls.

took me a while to understand. thought you bought a mclaren F1 or 2 bugattis. then i noticed u are in TX. if i can find a house or even a 1 bed room sh*thole in SF for $250k, i buy everyone of them. imagine how many more RS i can buy if i moved to TX ;-)
