AHH She's here and I can't have her till Thursday! - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Pforwell · 10-01-2012, 07:24 PM

So, I stopped in to the dealership today on my way home to see what the status was on my car.

And there it was. Sitting there, fresh off the truck. So I went in to ask the dealership what was going on.

Sure enough, I knew that my car was there, before the majority of the dealership did.

So I was like "When can I have it?" Well, the finance lady isn't in tomorrow, and so she's going to process the paperwork Wednesday, call me Wednesday morning, and set up something for Thursday! I CAN'T HAVE IT TILL THURSDAY!

Just for good measure:

I would go back to the dealership immediately and insist on seeing the actual mileage on the odometer and tell them that you want no potential customers being allowed to use the car for demo drives and that only employees doing actual work on the car be allowed to drive the car. Regarding that, there should be no need for any employee to take the vehicle off their property. If you don't, you will never know what your car will be exposed to in the next few days.

agree with whaap ^^

make sure its urs exclusively. no one else inside the car

Pforwell · 10-01-2012, 07:54 PM

No worries.I sat in it and got a chance to turn it on. I've got the Odometer reading.

However, I do very much appreciate the concern

15 KM on the Odometer!

Just keep in mind that setting in it and getting a chance to note the mileage is not the same thing as having a clear understanding with them that no one in the car unless it's for your benefit only.

Dang. Since when does it take all day to process paperwork and since when does a dealership not have the ability to sell a car they have on the lot on any given day they are open. I could see you not being able to get it tonight if the finance folk have already left, but how could they not be able to sell it to you tomorrow? Can they sell no cars tomorrow that need to be financed? Very strange.

Oh ... and by the way ... Congrats!

Carban · 10-01-2012, 08:03 PM

cool man good luck! its worth the wait

Pete156 · 10-01-2012, 08:18 PM

I have told my dealer to put in only premium fuel, not drill the bumper, leave the factory tape on, no wash or prep, call me when the truck arrives, and ensure all grommets are in place. Then I will write a check and say goodbye, hopefully forever (if the car ever gets here).

PMok · 10-01-2012, 08:58 PM

Congrats, you're almost there. I know it sucks to wait... I signed my paperwork and officially bought my car as of last Monday, and now I'll finally get my BRZ tomorrow. Coming on a truck from CO to CA.

MmmHamSandwich · 10-01-2012, 08:59 PM

Make sure they give you an antenna before you drive it off the lot. :p

ModBargains.com · 10-01-2012, 08:59 PM

Sucks you have to wait, but congrats are in order nonetheless!

Turbowned · 10-01-2012, 09:08 PM

Does that mean any cars they sell between now and Thursday they can't deliver on-the-spot? C'mon, one of the sales managers must know how to process that paperwork before Thursday!

shishand · 10-02-2012, 03:01 AM

Same

but i honly have to wait until Wednesday

NOHOME · 10-02-2012, 06:32 PM

Had a similar deal when mine came in on a Saturday. Dealer set me up with the car as a "Loaner" for the day so I did not have the shakes until I could pick it up on Monday.

Toyota town in London was very specific that sold cars do not get so much as sat in by shoppers.
