RE: Should I take the damaged one or reorder?
Thanks for all your responses.
SO I got back from my business trip on friday and I got hold of my dealer with the damaged R/T. As I expected (since I hadn't heard from him and had no messages from him waiting for me), they still dont have the parts (it's been 2 weeks since the incident) and no estimate on receiving them. I told him that paying MSRP for a car I'm waiting for indefinitely to be fixed is unacceptable and that I have a standing offer of MSRP - $1000 from anothe dealer to order me a fresh one. I told my damaged dealer that he ought to beat that offer or else I should take my business down the street to the other guy. My dealer said that by Monday noon he will get me 2 prices: 1) a reduced price on the damaged one and 2) a reduced price (below MSRP) on ordering another one. I told him that I'll wait til Monday noon (no later) to get these 2 prices and that unless the 1) is REALLY low, that I really see myself asking for someone to reorder me a fresh one. SO we'll see if he beats MSRP - $1000 for a new order or whether he can go MSRP - even more for the damaged one.
I'll let you know!!
Meanwhile I sw my 1st SRT (orange) driving on a highway near me y'day - it was SWEET!!! Love that mean looking front end coming right at you!!
