I drove out there the next day and met him.. He said he found out shortly after how limited the supply would be and that they wouldn't take VIP and his boss was really really pissed at him for making that promise.. BUT.. they stood behind his promise and wrote the order for me at invoice.


Hiley Subaru could learn a thing or two.. going back on your word to add an upcharge to an MSRP is very bad form.
Please post that dealerships info to for those interested. We should create a thread for the dealers to go to as well. Mine has ended the pricing deal that Grinch, Will (local guy) and myself got but they never even tried to change our existing deal either. I should have gone for invoice!! lol
