Even if that is the case what kind of person tries to profit of something bought at a breast cancer charity auction?

It is a bad look for the dealership anyway

I agree - why no full disclosure in the car sales ad?

I guess if you openly state that you paid 75K for a 65K car, at a charity auction, where people are usually feeling generous.

Then listing the same car for 90k it might deter some potential purchasers.

Uhmmm,
I have seen this car. I have been in it and started it, last week,
The dealer principal bidded for it at a cancer charity auction and I believe he paid $75,000, according to the local paper. I believe it was a personal purchase. The missus threw the article out. I don't know why he is selling it but I guess if there is a profit to be made then so be it. So this whole thing may be legit, just as we are allowed to sell our Mustangs for a profit when we get them. I don't know the guy but he spent a good hour showing the wife and I through it even though we have already ordered one 8 months ago. I am as frustrated as everyone else. However, we need to get all the facts before we lynch someone. It is a truly beautiful car and those who ordered Guard will be very happy.

Thanks Pete...the truth is a good thing.:thumbsup:
However a bit of scandal does pass some of the waiting time nicely.
I do agree that the advert is a tad misleading though.
Nice work for the dp, appearing to be a charitable hero for a worthy cause and then trying to profiteer from it....aahhh...salesmen....

If you only knew how much I have bagged car salesmen all my life. Now I find myself kind of defending one of them, a little bit.:doh:

don't agree here, if he was the highest bidder, then the charity got the best deal it could get, then its his and good luck if he sells it, where did the charity get the car

Off topic but,
Ahhhh I must disagree.

The BA series had no problems with panel alignment....at least Aussie QA know what their doing.....

NO apologies........made with pride at flat rock.:lol:

For me, the BA, BF, FG shape has become dated, taxi like...... The mustang is different obviously. Hence the reason I didnt go XR8/XR8 Sprint.

Aussie Ford ingenuity whom work on a budget....leaves the rich parent behind
