you ask that salesman if he ordered your car as a special order or part of his allocation? cause he will charge different price if it is part of his allocation. everyone is getting these great deals because they are special ordering. if he is trying to charge you msrp then it more than likely is part of his allocation and not a special order.
Precisely why most of us hate the buying experience of a car.
I ordered the car with an MSRP price $43970 and received a delivered quotation $40,700, about $273.00 over invoice. It would not surprise me if the dealer will come up with more fees when I am ready to take delivery. However, I am ready to walk away.
When we order a car, the dealers carry no inventory, they receive the factory to dealer cash, dealer hold back, carry over allowances, floor plan kickbacks, and more, Etc.
Perhaps he is jerking me around, typical NYS dealership.
 
This is an e-mail I received today from my dealer regarding the PCK luxury package delay.
“I have both good and bad news for you. I was able to change the color to Carbon Black Metallic. Your Enclave was not preferenced due to the PCK Luxury Package Constraint. One positive thing is that this restraint is not a zero build restraint any longer. It has moved up to 25% of allocation. I also found out the reason behind the constraint. There is a shortage of the N38 Steering Column due to a supplier problem. I will keep you posted as things develop.” Does anyone have more information?
