Mikeb, I was wondering if you have changed your earlier stance that, given a selection of cars built during various months, selecting an earlier-built car (for example, a July car) is just fine when a car built two months later (for example, a September car) is available.:D

I ended up buying from Long Beach Mazda two days later ($700 over invoice). Never heard back from Galpin after my test drive. Oh well, they lost a sure sale with me.

I'm new here and I was interested in the recent recall issues. When I bought my car, dealerships had June, July, August, and September cars. Luckily, the dealership that gave me the best deal had some September cars and I took one over the August cars that they also had. If I had taken an August car, I would be included in one of the recent recalls (the insulator one). As a result of going with the September car, I was LUCKY to narrowly miss that recall.

I wondered about the holdback as well.
