I wish you the absolute best of luck in your search for resolution. It's a shame some dealers have to jerk their customers around like yours is. Fortunately, my dealer wants to treat customers right the first time, so they come back for future purchases. A friend in my Corvette club was caught by the price increase just as you were. The dealer flat told him the price increase was the dealership's problem, not his, and they honored the originally ordered price with no games whatsoever. Your dealer is just trying to make as much money as it can off your higher purchase price before it is forced to refund you the difference. A couple percent on several thousand bucks can add up over several weeks, especially on a number cars.

I applaud you for standing your ground! Dealers who employ shady practices must be brought to task.
