Nothing quite like, after making the initial decision to invest in a new car, agonizing over colors and fabrics and assorted options. It was almost overwhelming for me but ultimately the color decision was made for me and I'm quite pleased with it.
The condensed version is... Once I made up my mind to buy my 2010 R/T, I was leaning toward either black or white (white being my homage' to Kowalski's white 70 R/T). Unfortunately they had neither on the lot. I said "ok, let's order it up then". I had just test drove a Torrent red R/T, which was the determining factor in my decision to finally buy a "brand new" car after 30 years of driving beaters. The salesman asked "what can we do to put you in that red one?" The answer was easy..."Drop the price of it" I replied. They did, quite significantly I might add, and now I have one of the sexiest red cars I've ever driven parked in my driveway. I couldn't be happier.
Yes I consider myself to be a man of principle and I'm typically pretty resolute but........even I have my price :D.
