The manual tranny one is a 2004 model as well but no mileage or price listed yet since it is not ready.

Also, its not a deal that no one will offer, it is a deal that other dealers are offering, and they simply come back to me, and say "No!" we cannot offer it. I reply, "so, you are going to let me walk right out the door, when I am ready to buy?"
 
Simple question. hope it will answer your confused mind, and mine as well.
 
Why don't you buy it from the dealer that is "offering" the price that you want? What is the point of going to the dealer that is "not offering" the price?
 
Is this some kind of high-school logic that everybody wants to date the girl that says " No" to a date?

Oh, well... do tell when it is. Years ago I had an exploding clutch issue on a Volvo but it was a 1969 and while it went through a couple only the original was remotely Volvo's fault. This was way back when somebody was "a god foreign car mechanic," even when he wasn't. Once I switched mechanics I never had a problem again.
 
I looked at that one you linked and then two others at different dealers in your group. Man oh man....

"you do own a Lexus and a Acura if I remember correctly just taking a little shot at ya "
 
Doesn't everybody?
 
Yeah, but when I head into The Hub of the Universe, I usually take the T! I kinda know what you mean about the directions to the pizza shop. But, being South Shah, on the rare occasion I go to Logan (TF Green in Warwick, RI fan here ...) I take the Teddy Tunnel. And, of course, my chances!
 
Ya know, even with the price of gas about to nick me for $4/gallon, driving to DC and back was still less expensive than Amtrak or flying. Even w/tolls. Not counting wear and tear on the TL, of course... Just an observation.
 
And, New Haven for me was when I was resident of the Great State of Connecticut. Oh, so long ago. Go Huskies!
 
Tried to go home on the way back from DC. My, how things change...
 
(The Fairfield County Border Guards checked my tax returns for the last few years. They wouldn't let me off I95 as I would have cut the per capita in half! )

Yeah our Volvo dealer has a lot of good CPO cars as they are trying to be the number one CPO Volvo dealer within the next few years. I think they are 14th or something right now. We also have a smaller Volvo dealer that carries a few good CPOs as well.

". . .survey should come PRE-PRINTED with all 10's filled out.
on the bottom, there should be a line.
  
_ I agree
_ I disagree
  
Pick one."

 
EXCELLENT suggestion.

My thoughts exactly. What is the deal with this one dealership? Is his girl friend the secretary there or something? Did I read correctly that he had been there TWICE with the same question? He needs to get a life and move on.

Definitely something wrong with that post. In looking back at some of his other posts, on May 17th, two days ago, he said he had just leased an '08 Pontiac G6 and really liked it. Maybe he is a chronic car buyer.
