    What if you had read the contract and noticed that lien passage BEFORE it was signed?
    Could you have forced them to remove it?
    If not, do you just walk away, or are they going to keep your deposit, or try to
    assess some kind of 'fee' BS for canceling?

    Good questions! I suspect they cave on the lien.

    The unfortunate thing for several of us is that we’ve invested time and money into relationships with dealers, typically due to convenience and/or proximity in the beginning. The notion of a “different dealer” becomes substantially more complicated. Imagine spending years or decades as a client while principals, managers, salespeople, politics, and directives change, only to see the relationship has become very one sided and even abusive. So you decide you’d like to extract yourself from that scenario while preserving the benefits of your profile along with your relationship with Ferrari. Of course Ferrari doesn’t support dealers poaching clients from other dealers so it’s a quite delicate matter at this level to get to a different dealer. There are methods to accomplish a move but it’s more complicated than just going elsewhere. Another unfortunate aspect of what Ferrari, more specifically RACE, has done to clients.

    I had no idea it was that precarious. Thanks for the insight.

    All the best,
    Andrew.
