If you go to Stevens Creek they should let you swap the trunks. I know of someone who traded in their STi and they swapped catbacks on the cars there.

Yup they let me trade my cat back there.

Just do what I do,

Go in, never say you have a trade in, work hard and get the best deal they will cut you...THEN say "oh, I have a trade in by the way". Gods they hate guys like me on car sales floors

Overbear,
I like your technique! I will give that a shot once I start going into the dealerships! Thanks!

What you really should do is contact Mark Moore at Stevens Creek. You never have to step foot in the dealer until you're ready to pick up the car for the most part.

My family usually always deals this guy named Cash (sp?) at stevens creek. He gets us great prices. I usually only go into the dealer when I want to negotiate a price and see the car. What I see, it seems like a lot of dealing is done online these days. If I am not mistaken. I will contact Mark Moore though for sure. Thanks for the tip!

No worries. Either he or Masood can help you. I've bought from both of them.

Well I am in Tempe only for school and I will have a garage. But you're right it would suck in the heat, but I am home in the bay for summer

I am an indecisive person, and I don't know if I should go limited and have less to spend on my car or premium and have more to spend on my car that is. Decisions Decisions. haha
