You know I have bought soooo many cars over they years, and all I can say is that at the end of the day, its the car that is in my garage, and not the salesman in my bed.

If the car is close, I mean PCCB's might be a deal breaker but all other parameters minus red stitiching? Hard to get that close without ticking off a build sheet for a new one.

If a salesman were not cooperating with me, that is the last thing that would bar me from getting the car if I wanted it.

I like a smooth transaction as much as the next guy, but how hard is it to put up with a little bull to get what you want at a price you want to pay, I get more grief buying a cellphone.

In any case, I will gladly rep you for a few hundred and manhandle anyone who gets out of line if you like.
