And I agree.

But, I maintain that any stealership that allows this type of activity to happen should be on notice that enthusiasts now have a very particular set of skills, skills we have acquired over very long hours surfing the web, skills that make us a nightmare for people like them.

Now that more of the story is out, it sounds to me like he was hoping their first offer of replacing it was followed up by an offer of a free upgrade (sti) or free car.

I'd say he deserved extra compensation if the dealer put him through the ringer but it sounds like he was greedy and decided to go that route himself. Mistakes happen at independent shops as well as dealerships. I think people just seem to hold dealerships to an unrealistic standard.

I would love to hear the dealer's side of the story as I don't think that OP is telling both sides of the story.

Touche sir!!!

I will also make sure to put a dickbutt on your car window and mess with your boost controller since I'm known to do that and all

And while I'm at it, I'll make sure to top off your blinker fluid and check your muffler bearings as well

Since I currently do not have any running turbo cars in my immediate possession, mess with the boost controllers all you want!!!...

...and dickbutt stickers?! Shyyyyyaaat I think that will actually improve the outward appearance of my jalopies. Make sure to place them to cover up some of larger dents...

...and sweet on the fluids!!! I totally lost that street race on 7th this weekend cause I was running low on that!!!
