So close yet so far. $10k sitting doing nothing for me while I can make $2k at least on that over the 28 or so weeks for individual manufacturing.

Do they just not want people to buy cars or what?
That is completely insane.
In California?
If so,
Him, I'd out and also report him for asking for an illegal deposit.

$10k is outeageous and blatantly illegal in California.

I'm in TN. I ended up finding one the next state over for a $2500 deposit.

Yeah, that would be a pass. Also, some states (AZ for one) have recently sued car dealers for "requiring" dealer add-ons as a condition for purchase.

Hope your $2,500 deposit is refundable.

My dealer in Arizona didn’t require a down payment, credit card#, or signed contract.

Looking forward to buying another vehicle there.

south florida here, they asked for a 1500 refundable for any reason. when I ordered my x3m40 they took no deposit. at least around here, there is no inventory of any of these so they don't really care if you order and change your mind as it will be sold quickly to the next person lol... they did lock in my rate on the m40i though, 3 months in advance which was nice as it was still climbing at the time
