You never signed papers to buy the car. You only tried out the car for two months.
You actually do "buy" the car, with all supporting paperwork. The program only gives you the option to return it. So I doubt just dropping the car off and walking away would be an option.
 
And Boomchek makes an excellent point. If the dealer suspects a joyrider, I'm sure they could find $200 in damages to disallow the return.

Stickguy....I'm with you. I'm not much into aftermarket anything. If I like a car, I like it as it came from the factory. For the most part, aftermarket wheels adversely affects the handling. The other "bling", like aftermarket grills just detracts from the look, IMHO. And, I'm certainly not of the mind to pay for something I don't like.
 
But, some folks like it. I don't happen to be one of them.
 
If the aftermarket options add some sort of functional benefit (thinking about things like window tint, cross braces, performance air filters, etc), I'm more likely to be more accepting. But, few dealerships offer those types of functional aftermarket options.
 
That said, I understand where dealerships are coming from in adding aftermarket options. It's tough to make money on a vehicle as it is equipped from the factory. The competition is too fierce among dealerships. And, it's too easy for the consumer to find out how much money the dealership has tied up in a new car without the aftermarket "bling".

If I ever go back to working at a dealership, the cars they sell MUST have smart keys. They make life so much easier when moving around the lot - rather than having to key each car seperately, we just walk around with a box with ALL the keys in it - start each car & move on. Cuts the time to rearrange the lot by more than half!

I have never seen so much rain in my entire life. We have had days upon days of straight rain and it is a downpour. Not drizzling. A deluge.
 
Unreal.

Rain?
 
We don't need no stinkin' rain.
 
We've got snow here in Colorado today .. not much, mind you (< 1"), but, still. It's September! Not looking forward to winter. Not one tiny bit. Wife is already griping about the cold weather and how she wants to move to Arizona. Some day ... and, should that day ever come, we could get rid of her AWD Saturn VUE and get something else (just to keep this post on topic).
