I was supposed to get my S2k today because the guy said come back tuesday and what not. Today when I get home early for school my mom tells me that he called and said we were denied. I am soooooo pissed. Then I was on my way to another dealership with a black S2k and it doesnt exsist.

Wow how come you don't have the same info. The reason why it says that is because he either owned one at one time or more probably lied about owning one and picked up a vin number offf the internet. One more guest that isn't an owner but says they are. 
I wish they would limit the amount of time you could be a guest to a month.

I can tell you right now I won't have an S2k until june or july, I thought maybe I'd be responsible and pay some bills first rather than buying something on impulse.
As for the $1100 tires, wtf?? Damn, I put S03's on my M3 for $800. Where are you buying tires? I'd think that the 16" ones for the S2k would be less than the 17's I bought... And 10k? Hell, mine lasted over 20k... oh well.

Apply there for a loan. Get your car financed.

Bridgestone RE050 245/40/17............$227 X 2=$454 (Both rears were bald...)
Bridgestone RE050 215/40/17............$210 X 2=$420 (Fronts were ok...I decided
to replace them due to the
$100 rebate)
Mounting, Balancing, and Wheel Weights..$90
Oil Change........................................$19
Inspection........................................ .$12 (coupon)
Alignment......................................... .$159
TOTAL............................................. ..$1154
*With Tax, Road Hazard Fee, Tire & Oil Disposal Fee, the price was slightly over $1200. However Bridgestone is offering a $100 rebate with the purchase of 4 tires. That is where my $1100 price comes from. I have the receipt!
I only mentioned this so the guy who wrote the post would have an honest idea of the high cost of ownership associated with this car.
BTW...The reason my rears wore out so quickly is because I do alot of city driving. I doubt these RE050 tires with 140 treadwear rating will last anywhere near 20K... I think the S03 has a harder compound and will last a little longer than the RE050s.
