I got a call from my dealer yesterday and they informed me that the car built for me was not the same as I ordered. It seems that the order for park distance control never made it to the factory. I know I'm probably the only one who ordered this feature, and I did it as an afterthought, but I was disappointed to say the least. They gave me the option of taking a 2003 at the end of September or taking this car as is. After 5+ months of waiting, I decided to take the car that's already built. The dealer promised to "throw in some extras" to cover their mistake. What do you think this is worth?

Can't the PDC can be retro-fitted by your dealer. It's listed in the accessories catelogue

Take the car now and get them to fit it when the parts come in

I'd agree with Martin.

Or ask for a lot of goodies.
