Selling an ordered C300
Hi,
I ordered a C300 Sport beginning of August 07 and will receive it in about 2 weeks (mid/end of October 07).
I ordered it because I love ... and I still do.
But. now it turned out that I can not keep the car.
It's not that I can't afford it but it has to do with my new job and the customers I am dealing with.
Anyway, now my questions:
What is the best way to handle this situation ?
Not buying the car and loosing the $1500 deposit I already made ?
Buying the car and selling it afterwards ?
Is there any way that somebody who wants to buy the car can take over the order I made and buy the car directly from the dealer...to be the first owner.
Many thanks for your help !

Read about a similar occurance in another forum.
I think your best bet is to not accept deliver and see if they'll still refund you the deposit. If they don't, you're out $1,500. If you take deliver, its a used car and it will likely cost you more than $1,500. It now a matter of minimizing your losses.
Best of luck and let us know how this turns out.

Thanks - good idee !
Because the car has some opitons (18" AMG, Leather) that are not easy to get without doing a special order and waiting 2 months for delivery, there might be a chance somebody is interested.
Here the car that I ordered:
C-Class C300 Sport
MSRP: $36,675.00
Selling Price: $35,475.00 + dealer processing fee ($290).
Sample Picture how the ordered car will look like:
Let me know, if somebody is interested.
It will also be offered under Ebay.
