Well after a few phone calls with the dealer, and as others have previously posted, they had to claim the discount from Holden for selling it as a demo to sell it at a low price. However what I still don't understand is how the sale is still going through as a new car and not a demo, as it will still be on a new car contract and my name will be in all service manuals as the first owner. They have promised me that it won't be sold as a demo.

I explained to them that trying to lie about it to me and making up bullshit stories when questioned about it was not the right way to go about it. If they were honest with me from the start I would of likely still made the deal for the decent price I paid and this could of all been avoided. It just puts a sour taste on what should of been an exciting few week wait for the car.

So anyway I'm still happy with the car and they will be reimbursing me for the lost registration, which is only around $50 but it's the principle more than the cost than counts here, and a full tank of fuel.

Either it's new or it's a demo. If it is a demo it will have been registered in the dealer's name. It may have next to no km on it but technically it is not a new car and you are not the first owner.

Pretty happy with this- I think it's ok-
Manual Redline
20 inch wheels
Spoiler
Sill plates
Mats
Tank fuel
Red Hot (no cost obviously)
$51,500
Plus on roads as need to register in another state which will be approx $3k.
The wait begins...

Thats pretty good, I paid the same for my Redline albeit a few more factory accessories for the same price. So you did pretty well. I laugh at the car yards trying to flog them for above $60k :hmmm:

I have been looking for over a year now. Finally walked into my local dealer ( who up until this point have only discussed pricing via email ) and said " I am here to talk tango " said to the principle that I am either going to get a redline or clubbie, and it depends on how low you can get the redline down to.

After half an hour I got quoted 61k for ssv redline Prussian steel 20" wheels and full black out kit. Would have to have order in by "end of week" for a October delivery.

Considering the Sv black clubsporys are starting to be advertised for around 63k I'd rather purchase one of them.

Go the Clubby if they can't do better on the Redline.

I think you should be shopping around for a better deal.
Back in 2009 I was living in Portland Vic and wanted to support the local Holden dealer but their price for a new SSV Wagon was 6K above what I could buy it for in Melbourne. They have now been closed for several years.

$61k?!?! ha! Tell him good luck with his museum. Martin Garage in Vic have been doing Redline Sedans for around the $55k Mark with options included in that price as well.
