A couple of weeks ago I inquired about a ZXR6 ABS listed on cycletrader for $9399 and got a fast reply from a sales rep. We talked for a little and I asked if he could beat another local dealer. He assured me they could because they charge less fees. I asked for an OTD quote and was simply told they would beat the price and stop by and they could get me that quote. I live 3.5 hours away so that really wasn't an option but I decided to let it slide as it was kind of late and I just figured he wanted to get out of there. The next day I received a text asking when I would be in and that they were having a demo day and were matching the $500 kawi was giving to customers so they could get me a sweet deal(I had already informed them I was 3.5 hours away) so I called to see if I could get an OTD price. Once again I was simply told they would beat the price of any local dealer at which point I told them I 100% needed an OTD price before driving that far. The sales rep said he would need to talk to his sales manager and to send him the price they would need to beat. I shot him a text with the price I was given by the other dealership and what I was willing to pay. The bike was listed at $9399-$1000(for kawikash and dealer match)+$738TTL+shipping from kawi(~$800)+dealer fees(no more than $400). Before I could even get the OTD quote they said they needed a copy of my DL. When I asked why I was told it was for the title, at this point we didn't even have a final price so starting title paperwork is ridiculous. I told them I would send it after we got everything squared away. I called per the sales manager request and they said no problem they would beat that by $200 for a total of $10050. Everything sounded good at this point and I started giving him info for the paperwork and a CC# for a down deposit. I made sure 1 more time before he charged the deposit that it was the ABS model at which point I was told no that would run me an extra $1000. So at this point I'm not overly happy because I had just spent well over 2 hours getting this worked out and have the number I sent them in a text. The sales manager just kinda shrugs it off and tells me that the internet price can't be combined with kawikash. I made sure he was aware that the other dealer was accepting the kawikash on their internet price and it would bring me well below what they were offering. He basically called me a liar and told me that any dealership giving that deal would be losing money so it isn't possible.

Needless to say that is where the conversation ended. Please shop around. They were supposedly knocking over $2000 off their normal price to get me this deal. That would have made it $13050 for a non ABS ZX6R, $1000 more than I was quoted from another dealership less than 10 miles from CSC, yet they claim to have they lowest fees of anyone around.

Guess I'll be buying it from another dealership this week. You guys have my number if you change your mind and want to honor the deal that was made.
