Hey Vin who did you work with there? I'm supposed to go in there next week and meet with Sam. What did you end up ordering? From sounds of this looks like I might take a trip up to Ft. Myers instead.

The ladies name was Jan Christian or close to that. We just didn't feel comforatable with how things were going. My wife actually went down there while I was at work to order the RS1 hot lava and gave her $1000 deposit. When I got home I looked over the paperwork and saw the price plus tax, tag, title, and fee. I asked my wife how much the fee was and she said what fee???? So I called Jan and she said it was a $500 dealer fee. That was above the included handling fee . She said that was cheap because it was $1200 on the East coast. I asked why she did not tell my wife about the charge? She said, " because she didn't ask." And she said it in a very nasty tone. I asked if I could get my money back and was told only if the car was not delivered sometime in March. I just didn't like the negative attitude. We really wouldn't have minded the $500 if it was explained first. By the way it is a $250 charge in Ft. Myers.

yeah I actually spoke with Jazmine the other day as well, she was the one that told me they had already preferenced 4 of the Hot Lava's. She was definatly a nice person to talk to. When you say come to get them dropped, did you do yours yourself or did a shop do it? I'm new to the area so don't know what all is there.

That's funny... I used ot work at Southern Custom on 441 in Alachua... until I got tired of selling mud tires and whip antennas to rednecks. Drive to work sucked to having to go all the way from SW20th.

I live in Alachua, FL right outside of Gainesville. I'm going to hopefully order my xB in the next couple of weeks and they said It will take 3 days for me to get it. I can't wait!

Default Miami??

Hay

Miami and Kendall as well... and easy with the double pose

Ok I'm thinking we start the Scion club here in miami and get one of the dealerships to sponcer us (I know expressway was interested, thinking about asking the best cars to show up at shows and the like)

Or we can not link with a specific dealer and get all of them to carry club style flyers pointing them to a club website (humm charge for banner space???)

Default Coolness lets get this party started

Hay!

I spoke to Luis Haza.... I also spoke to their scion manager (forgot his name now...)

Ya lets get the ball rolling on this.. I had a cool name for the club but all the domain possabilities for it have been taken up (Sciontology) maybe we can do Sciontology-Miami.org or the like..

Lets keep in touch and on this... this could work out well for all of us, we may also want to talk to a shop like HP Morthering on Bird Road (or another) to get sponcership their as well
