I think that if you do decide to get the vehicle, you should get it with the package/options that you want. You dont want to look back in a few months and say "it's nice, but I wish I'd gotten this option...". I bought a new car a few years ago, and it didnt have heated seats (not the end of the world, but when you're spending that kind of money, it's not exactly like you'll just buy another one to get the options later... at least I couldnt).

This one has everything. When we first went to check out the cars, there's so much variety between them, I went through the list of must haves. There is not much missing from this one and if there is, I can't imagine what it would be. If I did go lower end, I would give up quite a few options, but it would still be a great car. Its not low end, not high end, right in the middle.

I use to work for a dealership in edmonton, and wow were they a bunch of roaches there.

they'd rip some poor desperate person off by paying 20 grand for their car. then spray undercarriage protector to cover up the rust and then sell the car for 30 grand to some person thinking they're getting a great deal!

one time a customers car was in the dealership and an employee hit it and caused lots of damage. the dealership quickly replaced the parts, repainted it (very poorly) and gave it back to the customer and never said anything.

when taking a car in for service at a dealership. take a picture of the odometer. Techs will sometimes take customers cars of joyrides, or to coffee, or on lunch breaks.

if you havent signed anything you can change. I had this happen to me and i put money down and didnt sign nothing.

They can't do crap and they have to give you your money back if you wanted to walk away. The guy tried and yelled at me and Once i told him you will be hearing from my lawyer and the BBB his tone was so NICE!!!!! after that.


And then I kindly asked for my money he said would a cheque be OK in a snarely voice and I said

NAW I would prefer CASH since it will be more of a bother to you since you yelled at me.


lol

got my money and i was happy
