Find a new dealer?
The MSRP of that sled is only $13,799, tax is 14,385, with pdi and delivery sounds like you aren't being quoted any discounts. I wasn't pricing out fully loaded 163's either. $12,500 was before taxes on a 154 SP with the etec, pull start only. I called every dealer in AB and some in BC when I read about the rebates.
I then found a spring check I was able to take over.
Honestly I would ditch the estart on a etec, but each to their own. Does it still not come with a pull start if you order estart? So you have to pay another fee for pull start too.
Skinnykid, thats a good deal.
Talked with martin motorsports too and they were 14,000 + tax with no estart for an sp 163 which is even more than my local dealer. This is kind of painful to find a dealership that will deal. 12,500 out the door with no estart on a 154 is good so add 300 bucks to go with the 163 and I would be a buyer but I guess there is still too much money floating around in alberta. I found a x model at martin too and they were msrp plus freight and pdi so I said you guys are charging msrp for a sled and the guy said that is the way it is. I work at a dodge dealer and would fire my salesguys if they said that to a customer.
