I talked to the dealer today at Red Noland and they told me that the $1k deposit is completely refundable. I have a November build date and expected delivery in Q1 of 2024. I don’t need to sign anything now. They told me that I sign the purchase agreement and pay the remainder for the vehicle when it is delivered to the dealership. (They will build my vehicle to my specs regardless of whether I follow through or not. If I decide not to move forward, my guess is it would just become inventory.)
I will say that every interaction I have had with the dealership has been excellent and they are very professional and have patiently answered all my questions. I was also happy to be told that the dealership will not be adding any additional dealer addendums or charges above the quote I got from Ineos when I did my pre order. They will only charge me for the labor to install some of the accessories I ordered. I am very pleased with Red Noland so far.
