A little mis-leading no?

Sport package?? It does not have the 162's, nor the sport seats...

I think the only "sport package" item on that car is the steering wheel

dealers do this all the time
they say sport package on the ads and then when you go look you start to notice it doesn't have the sport pack so they just lower their already overpriced car and make you feel like you're getting a good deal

And that person deserves no sympathy because you'd have to be stupid to throw down hundreds of dollars, let alone thousands, without doing some research of your own.......

as a car salesmen myself, and as the guy who does ALL the AutoTrader ads for our used cars, this kind of stuff personally drives me insane.

i hate vague ads, misleading, false information, listing features the vehicle doesn't have etc...

Do it right or don't do it at all.

Not to knock sales guys, but it seems it's a lot more shadier in the east, than it is in the west.

it's true. there's a lot of sleeze-bags, douche's, and scum-bags in the industry in Ontario. gives us honest guys a bad name.

but it's partly motivation to me to NOT be like those guys.

Wow, can't expect much from a dealer who has a nice assortment of vehicles - Jack of all trades....

The graphs really provided additional scientific information to allow me to decide on this car.
