Yeah first we were trying to get the cheapest interest rate for financing, then when that was all done, they had to get it from their "warehouse" and then they had to detail it yada yada Took a few days to get it

But now I have it So much I want to do to it!!!

My mistake. 08 Comes in CVT Only and they gave the option of 5 Speed on the 09. Happy now?

So their website lied to me then? Because I'm 100% positive that the GTS was not offered with a manual tranny. That's why I refused to buy one when they came out. Maybe that was just the Vegas valley but not a single dealer had a manual GTS.

well that 100% positivity should be lowered a smidge. not to bust your *****, but i'm 100% positive that they offered a manual trans on the 2008 gts because i saw several at the dealer where i bought mine, and i've seen quite a few around town since.

you got lied to. The GTS was always available in 5 speed. Congrats on the purchase anyways, the dealer didn't have what you wanted in stock so they had to dealer trade with another dealer and do a deal with them for one of the cars they had so they can get the car that you wanted, that's usually a good reason why some deals take a while.

maybe the dealership lied to you because they didnt have any 5spd in their lot.... and they wanted sell you a cvt gts

when i was buying my 09 gts, there was only 1 5spd gts(of any color) around that i could even test drive test drive... i checked over 10 dealerships that are within a hour drive from my home and work....
