i remember when i had just gotten rid of my H-techs, bc after a couple of months i realized the drop was not low enough. you were looking for the same springs and i thought to myself, "you will eventually want coilovers like me!" lol yeah, never ends and you're never low enough until you've gotten rid of the wheel gap!!

I pulled an Andy Dufrane and called the guy that sols me the car 3 times a day (usually got his voicemail) for 2 weeks until he agreed to send me one for free with no shipping charges.


It's ****ing $300.. if they did that to me.. I'd shove a rusty spoon up his *** after doing what you did hah.

^^^lol

I traveled from Cincinnati to Chicago to buy the car; there were no sedans that were spec'd the way I wanted them.

Needless to say, I'll never go near that dealership again...

Wow I see how you are, just a little controlling maybe?? J/K you know I still love you!

You are still a girl, you still shop. It's just you spend money on your car rather than on shoes, purses, and clothes. Those things are overrated anyway.

Usually it is a service they tack on and charge for when you buy the car, you probably didn't buy it. I love Infinitis. Great cars, good customer service. (Lexus is better). I have had a J30, I30, QX4, Q45, G35 and FX35. My experience has been free loaner cars during any servicing. The free oil changes is a great idea for dealerships to make money. Inevitably those "free oil changes" will lead to other non-covered maintenance. Good marketing angle, especially in this economy.
