Let me tell you something guys, it's easier to WIN a Space Star than to ORDER one.
My new car? Ahhh, Houston, we have a problem!
Earlier today I got a call from the dealership. "I am very sorry, but…"
You won't believe this, but it is the truth: the silver Space Star they received from the importer doesn't have the right trim. It's an 'Intense CVT', and I ordered an 'Instyle CVT'. The 'Intense' is the same car, minus the built-in Mitsubishi Multi Entertainment System (sat-nav / music / bluetooth) and the reversing camera.
One moment I feared that I had to wait for another three months. That would be all I'd need, the word 'cancellation' flashed through my mind. But no, there was a blessing in disguise.
The importer could supply a silver 'Instyle' from stock, so tomorrow that vehicle will be rushed to my dealership, but the whole procedure there will have to start all over again. They have to polish it, screw on a few contraptions I ordered separately (like LED daytime running lights and a central arm rest) and worst of all: they have to obtain a new license plate. The customer has to be patient for another 10 to 14 days.
The Long Wait continues.
