Signed all my paperwork for the TL. On paper, they tried to stick me with $89 wheel locks. I didn't notice it at first, but the salesman forgot to include it in his math, I triple checked! Then the finance guy tried to sell me extended warranties, blinker fluid, wheel/tire protection etc. He also tried to sell me a remote starter, but the car I just bought is a 6-speed manual, so......
Then he shot me a quote for a high interest rate. I told him my local bank could do better. He told me the difference between my payment was $7. I said yeah. He then magically found a rate a point and a quarter less. Wow! Magic!
So I was all set in about 45 minutes, I get to pick it up Monday. Now I just have to get the TPMS sensors out of my current wheels and put them back into the original steelies.

You can get a remote starter for a manual trans , but probably best to buy it aftermarket...but wait YOU DIDN'T GET THE LIFETIME BLINKER FLUID PROTECTION??? Oh noooooo.

I read it this morning! Good advice!
I didn't think it was possible to get a car starter on a manual, I'll have to check into it.

Yeah I just checked Google, seemed weird to me. Thought it was something you guys in the states did a lot (like the 1500 miles oil change it seems). (I French by the way)

Lol it's the go-to joke for a phantom maintanence item that dealerships and crooked mechanics try to sell the unsuspecting normal customer.
