i bought a used ford explorer about 6 years ago and my experience was similar
found it online at hollingsworth and it was listed for 10,700 which was a really good deal for what I was looking for
i went to the dealership and looked at it, and someone came out and talked to me....i asked her the price and was told 13,xxx
we went inside and I eventually brought up the internet price and we were able to pull it up on the computer to confirm
she went to the manager..blah blah blah...came back and said the price was a mistake and they could not sell it for that
I of course told them I was leaving, and I was stopped and they offered to match the internet price (even though it was a mistake, yeah right)
i reluctantly paid the full internet price because it was really a good deal and I felt that it could have possibly been a mistake
my wife went later that day to sign something that we missed on the paperwork, and the sales manager who was working that shift told her in a not so nice way..."if i would have been here earlier, that car would not have left the lot for that price...y'all are stealing from us"

I'd bet my bottom dollar that they can't afford to honor the deal. But, if they do, I'm selling it outright immediately and then buying what I want.

same here. i recently purchased a car for the price listed online. it was a great price for the car, and the dealer knew it. wouldn't come off at all. i may have been able to get them to come down if i played waiting game, but it was the car i wanted and the price was right.
