kudos to the dealer for going through with it, unlike many other dealers who try to get out of selling the car when they F'ed up the auction.

I ran into this story earlier today as well. Glad to see they honored the deal and acknowledge their own mistake. I recall another recent case where it took quite a bit of lawyering up for an eBay winner to get the car that they had won in an auction at the winning price.

thats really nice of delaership.

I saw a used 1 series on my local dealership website for 23 dollars. They forgot the 000. I was gonna be an ass, but decided not to :P. I just emailed them letting them know the price was wrong

With all the stories of dealers not honoring buy it now prices, this is pretty cool.

I'd have offered 24.

For the money they paid for that car at a auction and taking a minor loss on it paid off BIG with all the free advertisement they are getting from their mistake.
