    I also have many unused window stickers, I believe the dealer was allowed to jack up the price before the sale. the window stickers I have does not include prices.

    I would work extra hard at whatever I was doing to become so good at it and that I would never have to kiss anyone's fanny to keep my job. And I never have and I never will.

    I know dealers jack up the price on specialty cars all the time. I saw Pontiac due it it in 04 when the new GTO came out. Chevy did it again when the new camaro came out. I have no doubt independent dealers did this with Deloreans also. But I'm curious to see what was printed on his window sticker. To date all the ones I've seen that were sold through dealers had prices on them.

    I don't know if this is legal or not, but I once saw a guy with a computer and a printer making window stickers for a Big Dealer in San Antonio, that guy will charge big money to Dealers to reproduce "lost" window stickers, he will add whatever price the dealer wanted. On the same dealership, a sales petson will sell youa car on sunday but will date is following monday. I was told that dealers could not open 7 days a week, they have to allow personel to rest at least one day a week but they found the way around.

    So dealers do very strange things, including modify window stickers.
