Melbourne,FL Scion FR-S

I picked up one of the "first 86" from Toyota of Melbourne here in Melbourne, FL. They are expecting more possibly in the summer to August time. Definitely get in touch with Sean McGee to setup your purchase when they start getting them in. Awesome guy gives off more of a friendly persona than a salesman persona. That dealership is very respectful and proud of the vehicles they sale and they value their customers greatly

That is my Scion! They sold it to you! They called me this morning informing me that they sold the car. I never told them too, we were still talking about the price, they told me they didn't know what the monthly payments would be and they would call me back soon. The next call I received was the one telling me they sold it. Is It Ultramarine with a Manual Transmission? That is my car I put $500 down on it, They are the worst dealership I have ever dealt with.

Yea definitely not CoRi J's fault here. He just bought the car. If Corporate works it out, insist another dealer do the delivery!

Without question this is the case. He was just checking out the car and one thing lead to another. What I find interesting is Dan saying he was working with Joe the salesman, but CoRi was dealing with Sean. So maybe Sean didnt know the deal and sold the car....but in any case the Manager should have know the deal. All I can say is WOW.

Sorry this happened to you Dan.

Both joined in May. Both have low post counts. Posted within an hour from each other. Hmm.......

If this isn't a super troll then this situation is fucked up.

All of the "first 86" are spoken for. Toyota might be able to get you another car, but it won't be a "first 86" car.

If your first statement is true...that would be the ultimate troll and I fell for it.
Actually hoping its a troll, because it would suck if it is indeed real.

Lawyers on a Sunday? If you can pull that off financially then why did you even care about the payment price? Something smells funny here. Forgive me for being skeptical (reading too many forums has done that to me), if this is legit I feel horrible for you.

Um...hi nice to meet you too... I wasn't told anything either until I agreed to provide them information to obtain a quote. I don't know what's going on but I wasn't told any of this when they had it up for sale on their website. I saw it available and walked in. They said it was available and that was it. If this is "your car" then did you sign paperwork reserving the car for you and if not then was the deposit not refunded back to you?

I'm sorry to sound upset but you need to understand with the way this is being approached. I don't want to be involved with any part of these legal matters because the sale was open to the public and it wasn't just held for me. There were a couple of salesmen showing this car to people but the only way I was eligible to even find out what the car cost was by filling out paperwork and it being run by the sales manager to see if i was even able to be approved for the car. The car couldn't be test driven until I let them do the credit check and was serious about the car. I didn't know what my payments were going to be until I handed them the drivers license and gave them my credit check info to see where I stood financially.

I'm sorry to hear what happened but deposit or not they didn't just tell me everything up front either. I didn't have to negotiate the price because they have some pricing program through Scion that basically made the car available at msrp. They gave me a good deal on my trade in and I put money down on it but that was towards the end of the discussion about the car with them before I got the keys.

I wish you the best of luck but please do not get me involved with this since I have no knowledge of what happened before me.
