Just bought an 06 Miata and the dealer insisted that the etching is non-negotiable ... at a cost to me of $156! Lo and behold, when I took delivery there was NO etching on my car at all. Since all the paperwork was already done, the dealer tried to backpedal and give me 5 certificates for free oil changes in lieu of. I want it off of my loan balance since I'll be paying the $156. plus 5.8% interest over the next
5 years. I'm working my way up the corporate ladder to get my $156 back. FYI, the salesman claimed I'd get a nice discount back from my insurance co. because of the etching. Guess how much it came to? $7 bucks a year! Anyone else have a similar tale - and a resolution I can use?- posted
