Thats why i stick with CLOSE THEM ALL DOWN, let us by direct from the factory. Confirmed sales with decent deposits on sold orders.

Sorry so many enjoyed Bob F. Chrysler and the man but i guess his volume wasn't up enough to stick around, its going to happen more and more as time goes by.

I look for it one day to either get down to one brand/GM/Chrysler/Ford/Toyota etc. etc. of each brand of dealership in each major city or purchasing direct from the factory.

Yeah man that was Meador; really funny because the car is still on ebay tonight. I offered on ebay 42grand and got a call real quick.. I didn't know ebay gave our phone numbers out???? But the sales guy (still kept him on my voice mail on my cell phone) but he was one of the internet guys and he said we can take your offer when can you come over and do the deal. And i replyed i want you to fax a confirm deal of 42grand for your B5 SRT8 with VIN number, you sign it, have the General Manager sign it and i'll be right over. He hung up to fax me and called back about 10minutes later saying "OH MAN THAT CAR IS SOLD" I said Why is it still on ebay then? he said i will remove it off of ebay now.

Another 20 minutes passes by and a lady name Isabel calls me from internet sales at Meador and trys to work a deal with me on the SAME CAR! I tell her i have already spoke with a guy over there and he says the car is sold. She says it is sold and then NO its not sold, i said double check and lets make the deal. She never calls back. Today i get another call from Meador and i didn't answer. HAHA

GAMES, GAMES,

Guys dont buy anything at MEADOR CHRYSLER IN FT. WORTH TEXAS THEY ARE GAME PLAYERS AND WILL LIE TO YOU.

I'm in San Antonio this week and i found a B5 SRT on the way down here and I plan on stopping in to take my first look and see in person and see if its a 6 speed. Hope i don't at the site of B5.. Hope it looks better in person
Saw my first B5 SRT yesterday at a local dealer, gotta say it looked pretty bad ass to me, if I could only afford another, it be B5 blue.

The one you helped me find should be here tomorrow according to my salesman, but then while i went to track where the car actually was via the trucking company in charge it gave me an ETA of June 1st, so i guess i'll see who is right tomorrow.

Hang in there bee and plan on the worst. Mine was scheduled for early morning on the 13th, I promised myself not to plan on it, but it turned out to be one of the most stressful days of my life. When I got to work, VinWIN said it was still at the rail yard, but I knew the site was slow to update, so I held out hope. A couple hours later, I said forget it, stop looking, who cares, it will come.

Then I found a post by a buddy on this site due in the same day and time to the same dealership! We were on the same train and I said YES! Today is the day! Called the dealer and they said “not yet”! I figured they were slow and uniformed only to find out later, they were correct. Not today. But they told me I was loaded on the truck and would be there late that night or early the next morning the latest!

I figured, one more day won’t kill me, I can do that...

Noon the next day they contact me - “still no car”.

I WAS GOING NUTS!!!!!

Turns out, it did come in that afternoon, but my advise is to try to forget about it, plan on June 15th, Hell plan on the 30th - then you won’t be disappointed but rather ELATED when you get ‘the call’!!!!! Can’t tell u what a letdown it is to be expecting and for it all to fall through.

Here’s a link to the pics...

I expect some from you when the day does arrive, and trust me, you WILL be elated!!!!

WOW that color changes colors it seems, I do love the darker look in the garage better than the outside pics when it looks steel blue

Thanks for the pics, the one i'm going to visit this week looked like your pics when sitting outside from the highway view but i could spot it a 1/4 of a mile sitting at the dealership
