Scion clearly doesn't care as this isn't an isolated incident. Scion, you lose. Either uphold pure pricing or get rid of it. Having a rule you don't follow is just wrong.
Funny how everyone believed pure pricing was real until now. Sure there were some skeptics, but the overwhelming majority believed in it. Scion has proven us wrong, way to go.

this dealer in florida is still adhering to the pure pricing if and when they sell all their FR-S for that market value adjustment price. now, if they say they can knock off $1000 or $2000 if you buy it today, then its no longer pure priced.
the problem is that there are very-very few true Scion dealers anymore, where the scion staff is seperate from the toyota staff. i would say 99% of all toyota dealers have their toyota salespeople selling scions as long as they're certified to sell it. in the beginning it was always supposed to be one person from start to finish, not 3 or 4 different people during the buying process. the buying process was supposed to be the opposite of toyota and now its just like buying a toyota. the sales person goes to the mgr and back to you, if both parties agree on everything discussed...you see the finance person. or you see the internet mgr, agree on price then they hand you over to the finance person. very few dealers are still doing it the so-called Scion way.
