Garage
When I ordered my car I was going to be out of country for an extended period of time. I let my sales rep know this and we wrote up an agreement on the car and proceeded with ordering the car. I put the bare minimum I could for the car, $500. We kept in contact during my time away and everything he said to me matched with SOA. I was feeling good about everything. Up until December when delivery was supposed to take place. SOA was still telling me Dec, the dealer was saying upwards towards end of Jan. So finally the last week of Dec, SOA emails me a VIN. Saying it has arrived at port and is on a train. I call the dealer and they confirmed. Needless to say it got there in 12 days and my sales rep never tried selling the car to anyone under the table. I got it for MSRP. What I am getting at is I was always in contact with the sales rep. I emailed him on a bi-weekly basis. I always got a reply. If you order the car, just keep in contact so they know you are still buying it. If I was a sales rep and had an order taken but never heard from the person for an extended period of time, I would start to try and sell the car as well.
