LOL I wouldn't let them put any sticker either! Not unless they are wiling to pay my monthly advertisement fees.

For sure no dealer decals or plate frames. If they want advertising, they can pay for it.

Make sure car stays in back away from random people and CA's allowing others to see your car. Some CA's will do anything to close a deal and not all dealers have steadfast rules against test driving sold cars.

That is brilliant my friend. It showed up today, and has 11 miles on it. I'm picking it up at 5 tomorrow, and will make sure to call in the AM. I explicitly asked for no detail myself.

I let my dealer, Bob Smith Calabasas, detail it and not only did they make it shine, they took it upon themselves to NOT drill holes in my front bumper.

Dealer stickers, emblems are WTPT!

I'm getting a glass coating put on so they said don't let the dealer do any sort of detail.

I am expecting my M Sport in December... I will also ask them to leave on the plastic. What does detailing include? You said you didn't want them to detail the car... Why?

Also, is it a good choice for me to get the 3M Bra done at the dealership? Any advice would be helpful.

Hmmmm... so me having money to waste enables me to take care of my car?

Ferrari's are shit cars in my opinion. I'll save those for middle aged men going through a midlife crisis.

I think he meant to say he prefers Aston Martin.

Anyways, it's no Pontiac either. If it were me, I'd save that cash for a future paint job.

What i meant to say that the car is not a supercar or an antique, so no need to waste money on that imo

Two questions:

1. Why would you not have the dealer install the plates? I know they have to drill holes but dont you have to get it done anyway if your start requires a front plate?

2. Why no detail?

1. Front plates look ugly, I'd rather pay the fine if ticketed
2. I don't need swirls and scratches put in my brand new car before I even get to drive it. There's no special procedure for washing a new car or an old one. They use the same rags to wash and dry your car as the car before and the car before. No thanks
