I think dealerships have unwritten lists and if they have cars in the books as sold deposits that is what they are looking to do. |

I tried to get something done with serramonte, but they arent motivated. Ended up placing a deposit with Jack at heuberger in colorado springs on a pp ltd. He has been an absolute pleasure to deal with.

Tried to get a car from Diablo subaru in ca. Won't order a car until I can prove my ability to pay for the car. Is that normal practice?

If you go to a lot however and are dressed like you just came off the set of fast and the furious you are probably going to be shown the door. Most of the time talking with the dealer manager will remedy this situation but ultimately if you don't dress for success these types of things happen. You can either take it personally or just say whatever. Ultimately at this point you are just price shopping so going through the Internet guy might yield better results. |

No, to me that is not normal practice. All dealers I've ever inquired about ordering from never question me about my finances prior to ordering. If they ever did then they are probably judging you based on your appearance. Worst case scenario is having to put a deposit down. But other than that, sounds to me like I'd take my business elsewhere if they can treat a potential customer as someone who can't afford a car for no legitimate reason unless they're that determined to have proof of income. Just sounds like it takes the excitement out of the ordering and customer experience imo. Fortunately, my dealer is reputable in customer service satisfaction so ordering from them doesn't begin with the hassle of proving anything beforehand. They placed my order without a deposit and trust I will not back out or will have finances secured when the vehicle is ready to be taken for delivery. |

Just placed an order for the car at dealership A, but got a better offer from dealership B. Am I an asshole if I refund it the next day and order from B?

Ultimately when you shake on it and they write you an offer which you sign. Backing out of it is poor form but it's your choice. Reason being is after you place a deposit down you should be done but instead you went back and shopped around which is what you should have done in the first place prior to placing the deposit. |
