Congratulations! They probably wanted you to walk so they could put it in the show room and tag on a couple extra thousand. I would have told them about the great review they are going to get on the survey. Hope $277 was worth all the bad press they will get, serves em right! B)

Thanks everyone..we love the car. Haven't given her a name, I was getting flack from Ratchet because I keep referring to it as a "her" or "she".
Hellcat,
I'm almost positive that's what they were hoping we would do. I think they are well aware of how wonderful our review of them is going to be. They got the car in early yesterday morning but wouldn't let us pick it up until 5pm, I'm sure they knew we were going to be very unhappy and loud about it. So they wanted to make sure the place was empty. I still don't understand how a cash transaction can take 4 hours. Took less time to buy our house. I even had it in writing the agreed on price and they wouldn't honor it. GRRRR.. But hey they're not keeping the car after I've waited three months for it.

I will tell anyone I know not to buy there. The jury is still out on Shawnee Mission Ford. More info on them as it becomes available.

I think I'll be ordering from Bob Allen in Overland Park- they're getting 8 week delivery times there! I think I can get the X-plan, but no way I'm paying MSRP - I'll do my best to get it at invoice when I go in a couple weeks - I'll post how I do there.
Karpro - any suggestions?
thanks for the info on extreme - Kat, car looks great!

It's funny you both mentioned Tim Smith since not long ago Mr. Smith worked at Extreme as a sales manager. So just a fair warning, he's probably learned his crappy tactics from his previous job.
