so after months of nail biting, sifting through posts, checking dealer inventory online, phone calls to dealers...i finally have my srt. funny, it doesnt quite seem real yet...still having trouble believing they're outside of FL. i've been keeping up with a dealer about an hour from me that "can get me one from FL," but everything was iffy. so i decided i would check my local dealer, huntsville dodge, (non-5*) just to see if they know anything about when they'll get em. i pulled up wondering why the heck they would put a neon in the showroom, until i got closer and noticed it was an srt. after asking how the hell they have one, they proceded to tell me it is one of 6 total alotted to Alabama, and they are auctioning it off online. WTF! i proceded to tell them how much ive been following the car...they didnt care. GM told me he just wanted to get a little more for it, the reserve for the auction was only 21k. so before i blurted out "you a$$holes, this is crap...i'm right here ready to buy the car and you would rather see if you can get an extra $500 for it"....i thought, if the other dealer even DOES manage to get one, i'll have to pay to ship it, and dont even know what they'll expect as a 'finder's fee' and crap. so i said instead, "what if i go to my bank right now, get a loan, and come back with 21k cash?" so 20 minutes and a credit approval later, a happy fob with buttons, attached to a sharp new key, was in my hand. oh yeah, and i got the car too. its yellow, id rather have black, but i HAVE IT. i dont care what color it is anymore.
so anyway...i can stop complaining and start having fun. wee. time to go eat dinner at 10:30pm.
