Welcome to the forum and the goat rodeo! I'm in the throes of the same...car (5MT) built in late June but sitting at the plant awaiting a chip. That being said, my dealer LaFontaine Cadillac in Highland, MI (metro Detroit) is a high-volume dealer and often has 4BWs in stock. They don't charge ADM as far as I know...so you may want to give them a call. Ask for Handsome Glover and tell him Peter sent you. PM me if you need more specifics, and good luck!
Were they charging $15k over plus their non-negotiable $3,300 in dealer adds? lol I traded my 4BW to them and would never do business with them to buy again. Thought I'd just take the nonsense adds and get a portion of the money back for the GPS service I didn't plan on using. Negative. GPS Company says no refunds. Considering contacting the AG since the dealer gave me no information on the product beforehand therefore how could I know it wasn't at least partially refundable.
@SIX 40 .......I could have typed those two sentences. Same boat. Too stubborn to drop carbon and therefore no 5 in the garage. Thinking about ordering a 2023 for $7500 more or maybe wait for 2024, but who knows how much more they will be. Probably should look for an available 2022 and just pay the ADM....same difference.
Has to do with production date. So those already produced but delayed 22's may get delivered later... yet if they are a true 22 then they should still pay 22 pricing is my understanding. When was yours produced?
It would be a road trip, but Batchelor Cadillac in San Antonio, said that the allocation is somewhat based on the volume of the dealership. Batchelor mentioned that they are the 6th largest dealer (they are associated with Sewell Group). I received my CT4-BW on August 4th. They told me ahead of time that the carbon fiber and leather seats were backordered, so I just purchased a base model 4BW with manual transmission and $500 performance steering wheel. I am super satisfied, and I saved 10k or so. I think I placed my order in March, got picked up in May (I think), produced week of 6/20, then sat around waiting for transportation, I think. Arrived at dealer and system was still showing "waiting for transportation" or something along those lines.
My sales guy, Bobby Korom, said he had ordered some vehicles and with no deposit, he had a couple of them not picked up. Think they were blue 4BW's autos. Not sure if they still exist.
Ken Batchelor Cadillac in San Antonio sold me mine 4BW at msrp, with the exception of an add on of $1,300ish for window tinting, etc., etc. They told me ahead of time that's what they charge on all their vehicles, so compared to other dealers, I said "deal". I have nice window tint, and whatever else they did. They were very professional and kept me in the loop. I did not have to make a deposit.
Since they are a sewell family dealer I think those are optional. I can't say for sure but on my BMW order they said those things would be done once the car arrives, I declined and they said okay it'll be MSRP + TTL.
Sorry I wasn't clear. I received the car on August 4th.
That's pretty rich coming from the guy that goes hard in the paint for fucking morons that don't want the EV experience.
I wasn't sure how mandatory that $1,300 was. I went there looking at a black CT4BW, but they wanted almost $8k in dealer add-ons (PPF) for stuff that wasn't even on the car at the time, and the car had a broken driver side window from transport. I ended up putting in a build with Bobby, as well.
