I just sent them an email correcting what all was wrong with the car and price and this is what I got sent back.

Thank you for contacting us. Please get a life.

With an attitude like that I hope they get hung with it and have to give it away. And you wonder why people hate dealerships that dont have a clue.

Side note, that Race Red looks really handsome with the GT500 wheels and black hood stripes. Anyone know what spoiler that is? It looks like the backup cam spoiler, but with no backup cam. It also looks like the previous gen GT500 spoiler, or maybe 3D Carbon?

I bet that dealership gave that guy KBB value of a Premium with Brembo brakes on his trade in for what ever he bought from them.

Doubt it. I'm sure the dealer would have looked up the VIN which would have listed it as a Base car.

Its beyond me why any dealership would take in a hack job like that. Unless they got it dirt cheap or didnt know. I guess Im some what of a purist but when I see stuff like that it de values the car big time to me. They may have gotten screwed on it and now have developed an attitude. But hey, they are the professionals right?

Wow, are you serious? I would never set foot near that place again. I'd be calling and raising some hell, even if you never intend to shop there in the first place. That's extremely unprofessional.

You could always send that to Jalopnik and watch the hilarity ensue.

Well, technically the only thing they had wrong on the listing was that it was brembo equipped.

The response from their internet manager was probably just because they had a "few" too many e-mails all at about the same time calling them on the mistake and maybe the pricing. The guy there probably realizes that they screwed up when they took the car in, allowed too much fot it maybe.

It's not a Ford dealer, they don't have the knowledge.

It's a used car. Somebody tried to mod it and didn't have a clue what they were doing, got frustrated and traded for something else.

They don't need to be a Ford dealer to use Google or do a quick search. It's not like Mitsu's are flying off the showroom floor either.

The sales manager is still a professional, and should act as such. If he wants to make himself, and his employer look like fools, keep it up.

LOL, that struck me as hilarious. I actually think whoever answered it is NOT clueless. It's always difficult to derive someone's true intentions from a written e-mail; did they mean to be condescending or funny? Maybe they should've put a smiley face after their statement...

It cracked me up when I opened it. I think the guy was bitter. I wasnt trying to be a smart *** but informed him the the typical Mustang buyer would pick up quickly on the hack job they were trying to sell. I didnt say it that way of course but just informed them that Mustang buyers were very well informed. They are either pissed off because they got had or because they got caught trying to sell a hack job Mustang for more than a new price.

I wonder if the owner of the dealership would approve of this sort of conduct?

I'd call and raise hell that you were offended and possibly interested in the car.

Wow, that salesman is an idiot. People's lack of professionalism never ceases to amaze me.
