My coke can i bought had a different label on it than the commercial advertised! RAGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Google is your friend,

It's on the OMVIC website - look at number 9, all sales are final in Ontario once you sign on the dotted line, there is no cooling off period in Ontario when you put a deposit on a car from a dealer.

I was just as pissed as you but I've grown to accept it without the lights. Looks a lot cleaner imo. I just painted the chrome surround and horse black. Done.
The only screwing in Canada is the Government taking 50% of everything you make and universal healthcare with 8 hour hospital wait times. Good times

 

That one deserves an Amen !

Actually it's higher than 50% if you calculate all of it, I'm hitting closer to 60.

 

In Cali we're not that far off from that. W/ no healthcare!

 

Welcome to the new world

 

No kiddin LOL.

You gonna switch out your grille Big Red or leave it as is?

 

I've given up a long time ago with our public healthcare system, i now use the private sector.

 

Very conflicted as I am an original factory kind of guy.

Right now, it stays as per the factory, I can use the $500 for something more pressing

 

FYI:

Here in Alberta, I was just at the dealer to get some VINs for a project, and they had 2014s in. All the 2014 GTs had the fog lights in the grill.

Looks like Ford got permission to have them in there for 2014.

For a 2013 Canadian car, I think that that having the lower fogs AND the grill fogs would look neat.

 

Maybe, but it's illegal in most jurisdictions. You can only have four white lights on at the same time on the front.

 

60% in ontario...?
Really guy?

 

^ I'm guessing he's thinking of the 47% Ont./Fed. marginal rate, plus the 13% HST you gotta pay on pretty much everything if you want to spend that marginally-taxed income lol. That's just the basic upfront tax we all are pretty clear on, I don't have to tell you about all the hidden ones and the taxes on taxes on taxes (i.e. gas and every utility)...

I used to think the back of my '13 V6 MCA was the best-looking part, but now I (and many others it seems...) think the front is the best-looking part. Not perfect, but very good. It looks a lot like the GT CS, very nice in SGM IMO, better in person than pics also IMO.

 

government regulation or not. cars in general do sell for quite a bit more up here in Canada; even though on the Canadian and US website Ford has most vehicles starting at roughly the same price, but if you click into a bit detail you will notice that for the same price the US versions are better equipped (with options that would otherwise cost the Canadian counterpart 2-3 grand more).

I was very disappointed with the Canadian V6 premium package when i bought my 13', as it did not have leather interior as part of the package and I paid an extra 1500 for it...things like that. Every option was about 10% more in Canada too so it does add up pretty quick.

It's not like the older days where transportation was ****ty in Canada and costs alot more to get things here. The Canadian government is actually looking into this right now, cos not just cars, every consumer product is pricier here than in the US. It just seems to be part of every company's pricing scheme: "Yeah they (Canadians) are use to pay a bit extra for the goods they buy, so let's just keep it that way... not like they are gonna stop buying."

 

My thoughts after seeing this thread again:

Maybe we should stop selling Mustangs to Canada.

 

Typical ignorant response.

thread should be locked already

 

Yeah, they could still have the Camaro because it's built in Oshawa but we would lose the Edge, MKX and Flex (built in Oakville). Fair trade? Maybe.

 

Typical idiot reply.

Read through the thread again and come back and tell me who's ignorant.

If he can't appreciate the car because of Ford 'ripping him off' about driving lights, he should have bought a different car.

 

lol.. if i paid $40k for a coke can it better have the label pictured

he couldn't buy a different car because he didn't find out until delivery and it was too late, the sales material showed the car with fog lights when he bought it, just like all prior years had. it then came w/o, in Ontario you're stuck and can't back out after a deposit is left.

 

I don't know where people get this idea that "in Ontario if you made a deposit you're stuck with it". A contract is just as much a contract in Ontario as it is anywhere else. Certainly it's different in the US in that you can generally order a car without a signed sales agreement (contract). However, even a signed contract is not binding if one party fails to deliver what was agreed upon. For an extreme example, if you signed an agreement to order a Mustang GT and they delivered a V6, you would not have to take it and you would be entitled to your deposit back because it was a substantial breach of the contract (even in Ontario).

The issue here is different only in the details... the dealer (and Ford) delivered substantially what was ordered. Sure, the fog lights were in a different position - but it has fog lights so it has all the equipment agreed upon. And the design difference that put the fog lights in a different location is thoroughly covered by the published disclaimers that allow Ford to change individual specifications without prior notice. Under contract law, as long as they delivered a product that was substantially the same as ordered and of equal or greater value, they have no further obligation to you under that contract.
