Now I wait for the Stripper

FYI, it was $1K down, MSRP, no "add-ons".

Congrats.

typically people who want to leave no or small deposits are not sold on the car or there are other issues (credit or otherwise). Either way, glad you found someone willing to do what you wanted.

No, and I’m ok paying sticker. I think they deserve some consideration for the risk.

I’m interested if anyone has had success ordering a stripper M2, and if so, where?

What is "SPY"? Thanks for explaining.

Lots of folks like sunroofs (me included)! To each their own, get what they like.

Don't forget to throw in the Hyundai Palisades. Dealers were still asking for $3-7K premiums as of Q1 of last year (FY23) disguised in their required TINT/NITRO/DOOR EDGE PPF packages which they wouldn't allow you to decline.

I was assisting one of my employees in her search for a new 3-row family vehicle and I refused to let her pay dealer mark-up on a non-GT Porsche. Must have gotten quotes from 8 dealerships in the region and they were all still riding high on the kool-aid. None were interested in selling at sticker.
