Another surprise from my dealer
Was told yesterday that there will be a $550 charge for metallic paint on my order (black). This goes for VO but not white.
Never saw/heard anything about this prior to last night. Certainly not discussed when I placed my order. Doen't seem right with only 3 choices to extort a few extra $s from most of us. I'm sorry if this offends anyone but white cars look like appliances on wheels. |

Not so sure I'd say it's that way across the board, for BMWs and some of the other German manufacturers yes, but definitely not for all brands.

I did a bit of search around here and did see several mentions of $550 for metallic paint. However, the sales manager at my dealer definately did not mention it when I sat in his office and did the numbers.
Legit I understand but not communication. Hey, he's human, probably just forgot. |

The paint is actually quite a bit more expensive...
