The Ourisman Signature Package - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

polarbear · 05-24-2013, 05:54 PM

I purchased my FR-S from Koons Tysons Toyota last August. I originally wanted to purchase from Ourisman Chantilly because they're much closer to me, but they couldn't get the transmission/color right. Since nobody had them on the lot at that time, I had to wait for mine about a month, but Koons finally got an automatic Whiteout (don't berate me for not getting manual - that's

). Because I was getting mine basically directly from port, I was able to request no drilling in the front bumper for the license plate holder, that the car would not be test driven, no car wash... basically didn't want anybody touching it after it had come off the truck.

My boyfriend likes the FR-S so much that he wants to get one of his own. Camelflage (the boyfriend) wanted to see if he could order/request from the next allocation a manual Hot Lava FR-S from Ourisman Chantilly. He wanted to have the same treatment I got at Koons as far as not having anything done to the car once it got to the dealership.

There were 3 or 4 hot lavas on the lot the day we went, but the ones on the lot had pin stripes, tinted windows, mud flaps, and the Scion decal on the back bumper and, of course, the front bumper was already drilled into. When we went to the sales associate, Camelflage asked if he could "order" an FR-S and get the same treatment I got at Koons. They of course asked why he didn't want one off the lot and he replied by saying he didn't want all of the extras blah, blah, blah. After going back and forth for a bit, they said that the pin stripes, tinting, etc. was part of the "Ourisman Signature" and they would not be able to sell him a car without that even if he got one from the next allocation. So, it ended with us leaving and Ourisman losing yet another sale.

This thread is more of a rant, but has anyone bought from Ourisman Chantilly/Fairfax? If so, did you keep the Ourisman signature look or did you remove the pinstripes or anything else? We know that the pinstripes can be removed and the dealer was willing to do that, but he wants his car touched as little as possible.

It's just ridiculous that a dealership can't give the buyer what they want when they're asking for less. Doesn't make sense to me... What do you all think?

I work at Ourisman Fairfax. I am not a salesman there but I can help you out We do not throw any add-ons on the FRS unless requested. I can be of more help but I am no longer a vendor here. PM me and we can set up a meeting if you want more info.

Thanks for your help, but we ended up going to Koons. The car should be here by the end of the week. Good to know that Ourisman Fairfax doesn't have the same package.

Sounds like you're confirming the "Signature Package" isn't required to be on all Ourisman cars. I'd go back to the local dealer and confront them with this newfound information.

IloveBaldEagles · 05-29-2013, 09:04 PM

The Signature package is dealer specific. They just happened to call it that way. I am not confirming or denying anything. I am just stating my knowledge. You would know about my position at the dealer if you had met me and spoken to me at a meet. I can not confirm or deny anything. Again, the signature package is dealer specific. Feel free to stop by the dealer and/or PM me and I can set you up with someone who can help you out more.

I apologize in advance if I am sounding like a douche.

I was helping a friend look at cars at Ourisman Chantilly... Sales person was extremely pushy and rude. It was really a bad experience- the salesman was trying to pressure her into buying a car that wasn't what she wanted.

I ended up convincing them to let me take an FRS for a spin despite already having a BRZ on order, mostly because they were dbags and I didn't mind stringing them along. And of course my friend took her business elsewhere. I wouldn't step foot back at that place, even if I was looking at a Toyota.
