So the dealership mechanic is charging me a 40% restocking fee for cancelling my order in these OE control arms for my car.
I found Moog parts on rockauto.com for $90 versus the $240 OEM parts they initially tried to sell me on. I called them back within 45 minutes of agreeing to the service.
I called them back and tried to convince the guy in Parts that the 40% charge is ridiculous, but he wouldn't budge. I then tried to tell the guy in Service to cancel my order (behind the Parts guy's back) and he wouldn't budge.
We're talking about $100 fee here. Should I refuse to pay it or just deal? For the record, I didn't really think there was anything wrong with the steering/suspension.
I kinda think I'm being taken for a ride here.
ya win some ya lose some, just have to accept the loss sometimes
you can ask the mechanic to show you what's wrong and if they are good at their job they will show you the bad and then show you what a good one is supposed to look like
Do you think you can sell them for more than 140? you can sellthem to minimize loss

Weren't these sold as Contours in the US?
>>17601629
Not that generation.
They were sold in Mexico but not as wagons.

I'm thinking about buying the base Mazda6 to daily. It'd replace a 2001 IS300. Will it be almost as fun to drive? I will miss the sound system and moonroof, but I don't think I can get a manual car with a tan interior, a good sound system, and a moonroof unless I buy a BMW, and I'm too poor for that.

>luxury/family sedan
>manual
Doing it wrong m8.
>>17600565
Alternate suggestions, then?
You're gonna have to test drive one to truly get a feel for the car. Personally I would try to buy the Mazda3 with a manual. Both the 2.0 and 2.5 offered on the 3 are torquey, fun, offered with a manual on pretty much all trims, and get good mpg. There is also a hatchback version
The 6 is good too but it seems a little large for a 4 cylinder to pull around, and there is no V6 option

Available now if you don't live in a cucked country.
i-i-i-ts all highway miles though
When will this shit die. Why tf do people say this. Is the potential buyer suppose to feel better or some shit because you claim is all highway driven. For one idgaf. Car still has 150k+,200k+ miles etc.
>>17593500
They say city miles are a bigger stressed than highway miles, since city miles involves a lot more stoping, starting, and changing gears.
>>17593500
>youngfags
Doesn't it make sense to say stop and go driving puts more stress on an engine compared to maintaining a certain engine speed? The variables involved in stop and go do more damage than just loping along on the highway
>>17593515
Yes but to the buyer this is meaningless. This is a claim you cannot back up. Its basically feel good bullshit because you take the sellers word.

It truly is sad. They could have made a great successor, but they fucked it up. I understand the need to sell units, but thet should have made a 2 and 4 door option

>>17589583
Autistic shitposters couldn't handle the discord separation so they completely sperged out until everyone gave up posting here.
if global warming is true we need a new plan to stop the oceans from rising and flooding our cities
we just need a way to turn water into energy
then no flooding and we get an energy source that doesnt use up fuel

Welcome back to another Night Wave thread.
Previously on Night Wave >>17535699
Let's rev up those engines! Starting with a meet in Galveston, with a few people coming from different cities and even states.
This meet hopefully will bring everyone out who has been inactive and not feeling the wave. Too long has been since we did anything that involved more then 5 people, so let's go out there, have a nice cruise/wangan to Galveston, take some pics, eat some great food, experience the real wave and keep growing! See y'all the meet.
Galveston Date Poll results:
Date has been decided for the 29th of July.
- Euro Wave, hang in there. Haddedam has some big plans coming up for you. Baltic meet soon.
