Everyone had to pay those fee except etching. Some dealership let it as a option.

I suggest B.Silver or Silverstone. Those colour will keep your car looks clean anytime.

I was quoted $250 for the administration fees and refused to pay that amount. I suggested $150 and that's what I paid. The etching is on option, I declined. So between the two I saved $300.

Re: Ripped Off?

Each of the colours expresses a different personality. Goofy as it sounds, since all the colours were great, I chose based upon my desire to have a light coloured interior. I have the Desert Platinum w/willow interior and absolutely love it, it never shows any dirt or chips, and it's not as hot as some colours. That said, I can never get the deep mirror shine that someone with black will get. I would have liked to have the Silverstone w/ willow, but the choices here in Canada are more limited than in the States where all ints are avail w/ all exts. I think the new 04 midnight blue w/ willow int will be a killer combo.

Re: Ripped Off?

max3g5, Etching was included on my deal, I paid all other charges but different amounts: my freight was $1160, my admin/registration fee was $249!.

Colours: It's not a tough choice, they're all nice but the darker ones are higher maintenance. I have Silverstone and love it, and can live without the deep shine of the obsidian, t/blue or l/red, altho they're beautiful colours too. I prefer the more mysterious lighter, rich, lustrous colours of silverstone, br/silver, or desert/p..... Ivory/p and caribb./blue are also very popular.
Do a search for more info on the subject. It's been well discussed.........Good luck with the new ride.[img]/w3timages/icons/smile.gif[/img]

Re: Ripped Off?

Hey DC, They called the etching "security label system" on mine.The car's got these special tags all over the place in some obvious places and some not so obvious......lol......
and the deal is that if the car is stolen within 5 yrs of the purchase date, was covered by comprehensive theft insurance, theft is reported to cops within 24 hrs. of theft, and to intracep within 5 days bla bla bla........ they'll pay you $5k (Canadian) toward a replacement vehicle.
Your copy of this contract should be with your BOS for the car.
l8r dude...
