Dear Buick/GM folks that are reading our forum -- in the interest of still trying to buy your product, I have continued contacting dealers that show as having in-stock Enclaves.
When I email them, I ask if the unit is available and ask if they will sell the unit at Supplier pricing.
While I know Supplier pricing is left to the discretion of each dealer, what they tell customers should not be.
Here's an email (name of dealer and internet manager not divulged to protect the "innocent" -- contact me directly if you'd like this information) that I just received this morning:
"Thank you for your online inquiry and for providing us this opportunity to earn your valued business.
Unfortunately, I can not do supplier pricing on a stock unit.
I will be happy to factory order the vehicle for you. Production has been increased by 65% so we are running 6-8 weeks."
Production increased by 65%?
Running at 6 to 8 weeks?
So, let me get this straight -- you take my order today, and in 6 to 8 weeks an Enclave will show up built to my specs?
Hey jeanb1, ticner58, goterps -- are you guys down with this?
I'm going to order 2 so that I can sell the 2nd one for a few thousand over MSRP for those unknowing fools that went to the wrong dealer.
I must have hit the jackpot.
I found the right dealer with allocations of Enclaves to spare -- and a supercharged factory operation to go with it. Man, production up over 65%.
Anyone else want in on this action?
This kind of pure, unadulterated :bs: is what's going to cost you guys dearly.
