Yes, my papers say the deposit is non-refundable. I was very surprised,and as noted almost didn't do the deal because of it. The dealer was great to work with outside of that, so I signed it. Never saw that before, and wonder if they would stick to it if I canceled...hopefully no reason to find out.

When I asked about it, they said for some orders they ask for a very large deposit if it is an odd color combo that they think they will be stuck with, and that mine wasn't an odd one. That said, it was still the largest one and first inn refundable I ever out down.

I actually got a microfiber cloth before the car was delivered! Mine has the piano black console so I figured it would show every speck of dust. I don't really wipe it that often but dust hasn't been a problem and not a swirl or a scratch yet.

Here in France the deposit is non refundable except in case of dealer default of delivery and is mandatory for any order.
My check (10%) has been even cashed by the dealer few days after...
Here not only we pay 20% more the same car but we have this stupid law.
In other words politics here pushes towards having all people driving bicycles...

Well, despite what our government might want, the bicycle thing will never work, here. We are all too fat to ride them, thus forcing us to do so would result in an epidemic of heart failure, which would bankrupt Medicare, which would....

See what I mean?

Hi guys

I ordered mine here in NJ. The msrp was ~$63,500 and ended up negotiating a final price of ~$57,500 (8.5-9%). And really I didn't have to negotiate much--they are basically selling them at invoice at this dealership and I got $2000 off with an AMA discount.

I almost want to add a best price place on the website with the dealership and sales rep that gives the highest percentage off. Unfortunately I only received 2k off but would have drove further to get more off.

I think that's a good idea and have it by state. Going through the whole discount thread is a lot of reading.

What? My msrp 62510$
She said "I going to sell it to you at invoice price, dealer is making 5% on it". She showed me on computer, invoice is 58,932$. I said 58k even, they refused. Too bad I already put 1000$ check deposit, otherwise I try another dealer.

added the info to the mod section of the website. Will look into getting a review flash once I secure some additional ECUs for the car. At the moment multiple dealers have not gotten back with me about cost on an additional ecu. Im sure it will be high its worth it to some of you here so I will get them.

not sure if ive seen anything regarding warranty on this, but is there any issues with factory warranty? is this just a little re-program of the computer, and not a add on?

How did you drive during this period? Limited regime below 4000 tr? Have you used sport+ mode or never?
Do you feel a real difference now with the first hundreds of KMs?
