Geez.....up here Sport came with Nav since 2014 and was a $5000 option. If you got Sport, you got Nav, period. 2013 was the last year up here where Nav and Sport were two separate options. But that's up here.
Only $1500? Wow.

It would kill me to know I got burnt. I'd only settle for them taking the car back, but I'm not the OP.

I freaking hate car dealerships.

Reporting the fraudulent advertising to State Department of Consumer Affairs and I have a way to get the complaint noticed.

While I personally believe that the way they advertised it was incorrect and misleading, I do hope you realize that you are not completely without fault here. The dealer should have done its due diligence, but they made a fairly easy mistake and I doubt it was deliberate. I would expect them to offer to help you out in some way if they are a reputable dealer because it was their mistake first, but are you entitled to $4000 or $5000 over this? Probably not.

There is a difference between mislabeling a vehicle and painting the calipers and putting a "Sport" badge on it. I hope you get what you want, but do keep yourself grounded in this battle with the dealer. I see a lot of people throwing numbers around on this thread that are just not going to happen.

They can offer service but I will *never* let them touch this car. I have free oil changes there but I will take it elsewhere and pay. We actually own a Hyundai and we're planning on how to get rid of it.

I'm back to an excellent deal for a baseZ that has a rear deck spoiler.

I completely understand what you are saying and no, I was not expecting $4000-5000.

The general manager made what we considered to be a fair offer for their part of the misrepresentation. We shook hands and I am satisfied with the outcome.

I'm back to an excellent deal for a base that has a rear deck spoiler (that was on the car day of purchase).

The spoiler was on the car the day I purchased it.

If I factor in new MSRP price, spoiler, trunk/floor mats, destination charge I am at $5845 below sticker for a base Z that was was used for about 2750 miles.

Zbrah · 06-01-2015, 06:09 PM

Did the stealership told you the spoiler costs $1200? You can buy it off ebay for a few hundred, some even come pre painted.

No. The spoiler is not part of the settlement. It was on the car from day 1.
The settlement is the cash.

Blacklisted91 · 06-01-2015, 06:22 PM

How much cash?

Oh sorry I misread your post. What was the settlement?

Zoren 370 · 06-01-2015, 10:25 PM

I think Op is no longer inclined to disclose the result of the settlement in a form of the amount of cash.

Looks like she is dodging the questions now.

And insisting on going back to topic of the Thread a "I got a killer deal! "

glad it ended you being satisfied with the deal.
