Congrats! Did you buy it at Petersen's? That's where I got mine.

Ya, I got mine at Petersen's. I got lucky and just happened to call down the day they got it in. Had it bought by that night.

I hope you paid MSRP for it, did you?

Ya, I paid MSRP. There was no way they were getting away with that $3,500 markup. (I still would have paid it though) I love this little machine

They did the same with me. I called every dealership in UT, ID and NV and told them all that I would not pay anything over retail. Petersen's wanted a premium but quickly gave in once I told them that I would keep looking rather than pay more than sticker. Plus, I think mine had been on the showroom floor for a while so they probably wanted to get rid of it before the 2002's started to come in.

oh totally, it didn't take long at all to get the markup removed. Thrifty car sales down the street had a 01 with 697 miles on it for like 31,000. I just don't trust the place though. First off the lot boys like to take all the cars out hot rodding. It would make me cringe to find out what's been done to that car while it was in their possesion. Second, there is just something not right about a used car dealer in Ogden of all places driving a Bentley. Anyways, I loved going through Petersen. Everything was nice and smooth. Great Dealership.
