Dealership jerking me around

Mr Ed

give them the benefit of the doubt.

given that they took your trade-in suggests they are serious.

i'll ask you this - is your trade worth more than the 09 altima coupe?

car dealers dont stiff people outright like this. they f*ck you over in deals.

also did you specify a colour in the contract?

rather than escalating the issue, just speak to them nicely and calmly and you will get it resolved one way or another.

thats my view.

My trade-in was worth significantly less than the loaner, which makes me a little happier about the whole thing. It's certainly no Z, but hey, they could have let me drive my trade-in around another couple days.

You are looking at it the way I am. I'm calm and not really upset...until they tell me they have to find me another car. At that point, I'm gonna be upset and confused on whether or not to just go to the other dealership directly or let them find me a car. All my coworkers and friends are saying I should be in the manager's office demaning an upgrade to the Touring and other ridiculous things... They all seem more upset than I am.

I just want my Z.

EDIT: There's some questions about the contract....I've actually "bought the car" already. A payment is due in 40 days, loan processed....everything for that 370Z color/VIN/options, etc.
