After discovering the car had suffered some undisclosed, poorly repaired lot damage I returned it and got an Imola Red one in exchange

Garage List
Oktoberfest, Mount Angel, Oregon

Back in mid-September we went down to Mount Angel, Oregon for Oktoberfest and came across a small car show in the city square. Since my Imola Red Zed 4 M Coupe was new and clean I paid $25 and entered the show. Mostly 1950 and 60 vintage American muscle cars so I parked next to the only other foreign car; a Mini Cooper.
Didn't win any prize but got lots of questions about the car.

Which shady dealer did you buy the car from?

IR looks great! Looking forward to meeting you in future Z4 meets.

Eastside

The "shady" dealer is located on the eastside.
BTW the IB car is sitting on their showroom floor represented as a "new" vehicle. The last time I looked the poorly repaired paint damage had not been rectified.

I will probabally get flamed for saying this but I think the IR looks waaaaay better than IB. You are also fortunate they exchanged the cars for you. Legally they are not required to disclose damage in transit or on the lot. Glad it worked out for you.

Thumbs up Consumer Protection Act

In the State of Washington we have a Consumer Protection Act that, while not automobile specific, does provide consumers with recourse should a seller fail to disclose damaged goods.
I also executed an Arbitration Agreement upon purchase which, in the State of Washington, awards the prevailing party triple damages not to exceed $10K.
I had this dealer over a big barrel and they knew it.
