re:M Roadster ordering and other woes - action



Paul,

Any agreement whether verbal or written is a contract.  The dealer 
cannot then sell the car from under you.

I'd suggest getting a written contract and there is no need to pay more 
than MSRP. 

Here in Ottawa, both dealers are excellent (especially the one I dealt 
with - no names here).  Z3s were sold as agreed despite the fact that 
one purchaser turned around and sold his two days later for $5000 more 
after having driven it off the lot.  Cars were sold out by January with 
delivery first taking place starting April.

Fight for your rights, get it in writing and make a lot of loud 
complaints. There are lots of interested parties who have a vested 
interest in ensuring dealers maintain a level of integrity etc.

Never go back to the dealer who screwed you. In fact, I'd also suggest 
informing him of every stage in your new purchase, so he can be aware of 
his lostv opportunity on a regular basis.

Cheers,
Hagen
