How much would this annoy you?

I have two thoughts:

First, there's a lot of little nuances to keep track of between models and trim lines, and I can understand getting something mixed up. If it were just an incorrect detail, I might give him the benefit of the doubt. OTOH, if there was more to it or he otherwise made you uncomfortable, walk away and don't feel guilty.

Second, we bought our last car via the internet and it was fantastic. Sure, it was about 2 weeks of emailing, but it was very easy to say no to stuff we didn't like or agree with. Once we agreed on the car and the price, we spent about an hour at the dealership just to sign paperwork. No debates or upselling...

I love the idea of using his mistake as a bargaining chip. lol.

I also love everyone's attitude of "It's ONLY 8 years old? Why are you getting rid of it?" I come from a family that trades in their cars every 2 years, so this is very refreshing. I mean that sincerely.

Part of the reason that I'm starting to think about getting a new car is that I hope to semi-retire in about a year. I want to get a new car when I can still easily afford it. Then I can keep THAT car for a long time. It's a fine balancing act and my current car isn't going anywhere in the next few months.
