Price change on Base.....
Okay, someone mentioned in a post that the price went up $50. Now, I am assuming, since I haven't done the "finance" part of my car, that I have to pay the extra $50 versus what it was when I ordered the car?
That is just sucking. I mean, my payments were all figured out and they up the price? WTF? When did that happen?
I know it's only $50, but hey, my payments go up with every dollar that they add. Bleah.

Yeah, anyone know if this price change applies to us ppl who have deposits down on a tC waiting for delivery?
They alredy charged my credit card $500 in January.
The printout (of my car with all the options I ordered) the dealer gave me quoted the $16,465 base price.
Now, scion.com has the tC showing at $16,515 base MSRP.
What's up with that?

I just wnated to let everyone know that what they gave me was whatever was on the sticker. So if it says less the $50, then that's what you get.
Also, I got jacked. Only cuz the car that I got, had side-impact air bags, and I didn't want it. They were so hard up to get me to drive off in it, that they did somethign to lower my payments. Because there was about $800 worth of accessories on it that I didn't want (it was a cancelled order, so I was lucky to be next in line).
I flat out told them I'll wait for the one I want. The manager said let me see what I can do, and I took off my fog lights option and I was set to go with a lower payment than what I expected.
Strange, but okay. Not sure what he did.

I got mine on Feb. 3, and the sales said that the $50 is new fee for media advertisement or something. And since I ordered the car before Feb. 1, it won't apply to me. I think for you guys who already put the down payment down, don't have to worry about...

Straight from the horse's mouth:
I printed the email and will bring it when my car comes in just in case the dealer tries to pull some funny business with me.
