Aldric called me today, he was making notes on who referred me so I gave your (real) name haha

He said they're organizing their allocations and places in line and things are looking good numbers wise for allocations? He said doesn't want to get my hopes up but that things are getting serious.

But that's where the positive news kind of ends...

At least for Burrard Acura... they are doing:
- mandatory ceramic coat package ~ $2,000 extra
- mandatory owner protection package... so like coverage if you lose your keys or other nonsense (unknown price)
- mandatory all available accessories installed (unknown price)

So basically it sounds like it's going to be anywhere from $5-10k markup through unnecessary add-ons. Sigh.

I'm also at risk of getting bumped down because I got nothing to trade-in and it's mandatory financing, 6 months minimum and then you can pay it off... but no cash purchase allowed.

Dealers still dealin.............. I don't blame Aldric at all, he's just doing what he's told to do and he's being extremely upfront and honest about it which I appreciate, but obviously Burrard's tactics are... disappointing to say the least.
