As you can see in my signature, I ordered my GT350 in late AUGUST of last year. I bought another fun car while patiently awaiting this one which should have came around new years as my dealership first said, then changed to the March/April window.. only to be coming now in early June
That's about.. 10 months waiting. (one of the longest I've seen for a car that wasn't botched on delivery)
I finally see a few weeks back, my car was built. FINALLY. ECSTATIC.
I get a phone call this morning..
"Sir, it seems that while passing through Montana, it got hit by a hail storm with nickel sized hail and there is damage on the car and will require paintless dent removal. ":frusty::frusty::frusty:
Now they offered me two options;
1) Get the guy to fix the dents via Paintless dent removal (couple weeks he said) and deliver per the $1000 over MSRP as promised.
2) Give me back my $1000 and move on.
He also mentioned that other dealers are charging 10k over MSRP (not sure what that had to do with anything)
What would you guys do?
For a second, I had a feeling he was trying to pass up my deal to get the car sold to the next biggest bidder... :shrug:
I mean, I could fly over for 150 bucks there and check out the damage in person (whenever it gets to the dealership)...
I asked for pictures of the damage, so we'll see what he says when he gets back to me.
tldr;
-I wait 10 months for GT350.
-During transit, it gets hailed on to the point of damage.
-FML.
