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.

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.

Actually hoping its a troll, because it would suck if it is indeed real.

If need be I can show the paperwork to the moderators proving I bought this car legitimately in my name. I give you my word I'm not trying to troll at all and honestly I don't know what the fuck is going on. The car was advertised online so I'm hoping that this person wasn't going to go after whoever he saw driving the car.

This doesn't make me feel comfortable at all being brought into something like this when I didn't do anything wrong. I walked in and walked out the same day with the car and no negotiations at all about the price.

so the next question is, Cori did you buy the car at MSRP? if the price has a markup, which i highly believe it does, then this dealer win the shittiest shadiest and son-of-a-bitch reward

[enigma]

I too saw it online the night before Cori bought it. I had called the dealership the night before to schedule a test drive and they simply told me that the person who was supposed to purchase it had "backed out" and that it was available for purchase now.

I personally wasn't looking for an Ultramarine anyways, but I wanted to drive it before I made any rash decisions about my current car. Cori beat me to it though! Congrats again on your purchase... to the OP, crappy deal man. Hope you get it all worked out and they get you another FR-S--and quickly!

It was for $24,985 and MSRP is $24,930...$55 difference...so was the mark up noticeable? No I'm assuming that was for the full tank of gas they put in the car. They stuck to their pricing program I think it's called pure pricing or something like that.

Thanks man! At least you were able to schedule a test drive. I wasn't allowed to drive it until paperwork was signed for showing I was serious. It felt like I was buying a Lamborghini or something expensive because they wanted to make sure that I was financially eligible to even buy the car by signing paperwork before moving further with me.

[luxmn]

hmm nah 55 difference could be just the difference in destination cost. so you did get it at MSRP, which means at least the dealer is not douchebag.

He stated in here that he doesn't blame you but blames the dealership.

Ok I apologize for the comment. It's just unexpected with the way I was originally approached on this. I don't want to cause any trouble and I really don't want to be apart of any.

[86design]

wow that sucks man....I would be really pissed off at the dealers...especially for that person that was a part of the shoe "first 86"

but I could understand the situation with Cori...saw the car for sale and jumped right on it...but sorry to say Cori but you'll probably be apart of the investigation...with assassins lawyers...few questions about the sales man and the buy on the car...I would know..my cousins a lawyer....

I am willing to bet they made more money on the backside. The trade in and on the marked up interest rates. Msrp could stay the same still doesnt meam they made the same amount of money. Why do you think they wanted to run your credit before giving you a sales price and payment info. They padded the apr to makes money. You all dont understand that. You guy only worry about msrp..... lol

If he financed through TFS the interest rate is also capped by Scion and the dealership can't mark it up (unlike the price of the car which they can markup as long as they advertise it at the price they try to charge for it, so they can't just mark it up on the spot). If you know your credit score u can find out what your rate will be before u even walk into the dealership.

I don't know this dealership but I have to believe there's more to it than just this. If you had a deposit down on the car and I'm assuming a purchase order i just don't see what the benefit to the dealership would be of selling it to someone else. Especially with how strict scion is being about the first 86 program.

How many days were there without communication between you and the dealership after they left u a voicemail?
Why not call and talk to a manager if your sales person was unavailable?

I'm never going to defend this dealership but would like to know the details of how this all went down.

man that is some shaddy dealership stuff right there.... yikes.... feel bad for both parties...I hope it works out!!

No need, what happened stinks and I was never putting blame on you.

The car was posted for sale, you walked in and bought it, plain and simple.

At this point the issue is between Dan and the dealer.
