They sent me back my check for $5,000 overnight. Now I'm tempted to call up that idiot that threatened to throw a lawsuit at me

If you have paid a purchase deposit, you have the right to receive a ' ' refund of that deposit at any time prior to your signing a vehicle ' ' purchase agreement with a selling dealer. Purchase deposits are ' ' limited by law to no more than 2.5 percent of the purchase price of a ' ' vehicle and must be deposited by an autobroker or auto buying service ' ' in a federally insured trust account.

UPDATE ON THIS DEAL: The general sales manager at Lexus of Valencia said they would not return my deposit of $5,000 and threatened to throw a lawsuit at me...AT ME!!! I am going to call corporate tomorrow and see about this.

Do you guys count TTL when you say I shouldn't be paying over MSRP?

So after TTL I should be driving away with something around $47k OTD?

I want to special order an: '07 IS 350 Luxury Plus Package 18" Pre-Collision / Dynamic Radar Cruise Ground Effects Kit Navigation / Mark Levinson Rear Spoiler Intuitive Parking Assist Preferred Accessory Package I live in Orange County, CA and the dealership (Lexus of Valencia) told me $55,XXX after TTL. After some shopping, I found deals of over $4k less than their offer. I called them back and yelled at them that other dealers were able to offer a completely different price. Valencia said they cannot offer discounts on special orders which I think is complete BS. After a few phone conversations, they finally gave me a price of $51,800 OTD and that the car is $49,XXX MSRP. If they can't offer discounts how is it that the price came down about $4k? I hate the fact they threw such a high figure at me to begin with and lied about discounts on special orders. What do you guys think of this deal? Is this still a rip-off price or what? I can't tell anymore after being mislead by other dealers such as *cough* Lexus of Las Vegas *cough*. Feedback much appreciated.
