I had my car flatbedded with only 12 miles from miami to west palm beach. I almost drove up there to pick her up but the dealer hooked me up with the delivery.
Would You Let The Dealer..........
- Thread starter 94GTLaserRC
- Start date
Well Im calling the dealer this morning around 9. If there is no update to the pickup date of 11/2, I will have him go get it today for tomorrow pickup so I can get her to Steeda Friday. There may be a change of delivery date though to tomorrow direct.
Ill post later today when Im getting her for sure!

Hell no, I wouldn't let my salesman drive my new car that I ordered from the factory.
Totally defeats the purpose of ordering a new car from the factory and waiting for multiple weeks to just end up with what amounts to a dealer trade in the end with someone driving it 60 miles from one place to another who isn't you.
My brother in-law did the same thing with his 03 Cobra because he couldn't wait a couple more days. It was driven about 80 miles and he ended up waiting longer because his chin spoiler / bumper got scrapped and the hood had 2 noticeable rock chips in it.

Crackerballer....I sold them for a grand. More than enough for tuner, but for now I just look at it as a $1200 upgrade charge for the Steeda staggered set. Pics coming soon. Best part is Steeda is taking care of ALL the packing and shipping. Steeda ROCKS

Mine came from 180 miles away. The dealership I bought mine from hires retired state troopers to do car transfers. The dealership mine came from needed one of the Fusions my dealership had on the lot, so the cop drove the Fusion out there and drove my Mustang back. I had no problems with it since I was being picky and wanted what I wanted. They didn't charge me extra for the transfer which they do sometimes.
Guess you won't be getting one. There's only one color combo for the Leguna Seca, that wonderful black and red!
<-seriously, I like it.On topic, heeeeck NO, I wouldn't let the dealership drive my car. I know you already have yours, OP. This is reply is for others who might be considering the same thing. I've been on road trips and seen cars being driven from one dealership to another. Those guys beat the crap out of those cars. I was driving back from Disney one time in my 550i Sport and a guy was transporting an Accord and he was getting into a "speed competition" with me!
When I was a teen, I had an uncle that worked for a dealership. The owner's wife bought a brand spankin' new Linconln Continental Mark VI. My uncle had to transport it back. He took me and my cousin; two young teens. We drove the CRAP out of that Mark VI on the way back!!
So no fracking way I'd let 'em transport a car of mine!

So I'm guessing that the dealer putting 100 miles on your gar to diagnose it would really annoy you? --> http://www.stangnet.com/mustang-forums/826074-strange-fuel-guage-issue.html
