why do u look with dealer options...R/L should cost u with tax in the neighborhood of 33-34K...and that is fully equipped...less the 10 dollar hooker.

Don't know about in your neighborhood, but I called my dealership and asked about GMS pricing. They said that they were not offering it. I asked them why the FF web page was saying it was offered AND listing the GMS price. They called me back within the hour and advised that they were in fact offering GMS. SCarfed up a dealer trade exactly how I would have ordered it exactly on week later.

I'd call them on it. It's available and obviously being honored by honest dealerships. Heck, I'll hook you up with my salesman if you want to buy it here and drive it home. It would be a great first drive!

SoCal...Supply and Demand. For some people, a $5K is nothing. People must by buying.

They may not be the biggest, but if you search around you'll find a number of very happy forum members who bought at SSC. Yeah, supply & demand raises it's head in SoCal from time to time. These guys were the first of only two supporting dealers here on the forum. They're about as cut and dry as you can get. 0 games, 0 bs. Good luck!

There are several RL's here in Appleton. They are not as popular here as they are in the southern states.

Where do you have to pay 5000 in taxes on a 38000 dollar car?? That is 13% just in taxes... I would move!!!
I am glad here we just pay on the difference between your trade in and the price you are paying for the car.. and then the tax is just 7-8% depending on the county..
