This demand is similar to to what happened when I went into an Acura dealer in Boston back in 2001 to take a look at the then - new MDX. The salesman handed me a list of all the "mandatory options" I would have to buy if I wanted the car. It was $2000 worth of ridiculously marked up (Scotchguarding the carpets for $500) or useless (spray - on undercoating, rust - proofing) crap. Then, when I asked for a test drive, the guy said I would have to put down a $1000 non - refundable deposit first. If I ordered the MDX they would apply the grand to my purchase; otherwise, they kept it. This dealer was literally across the street from where I worked so it would have been super convenient to have it serviced there, but I walked out and ordered the car from another dealer 20 miles away.
