I'm not saying its not true, I would just be a little more pissed thats all. Plus even if they are being sold they probably have started production of your boat and the buyer will take over from there. Thats if it was sold like a normal business. If it was then there shouldn't't be a problem.

TO, oh how true.

Happened to me. Put a deposit on a Sonic a few years ago, the dealership lost the right to sell Sonic, my order wasn't placed yet(even though it should have been) and they said we cant sell you a new Sonic, i said give me my money back. After a long battle I got no refund, thankfully they got a nice used one in on trade that i liked.

Purely the dealerships fault, not Sonics. Now if your order has been sent to the factory you are probably out of luck since the dealer obviously does not want to pay the payment when the boat comes in.

Let's not get too worked up yet. Look how many times Cigarette has changed hands. Donzi is owned by a company that build's fishing boats and I think everyone would agree that Donzi is still a great boat.

Give it time to run it's course and let and see what happens. I just recently purchased a 2001 358 and I'm as interested as anyone to see the final outcome.

Right from the horses mouth!

Just got a call from Richard at Sonic.

The rumor is FALSE. They have not been bought out. They have however been doing some acquisitions and some merging. All in the name of growth, supporting EPA standards and supporting Homeland Security.

Richard is reviewing a draft press release and it will hopefully come out by the end of the week. Sonic is still building go fast boats.

Richard said if you any questions or concerns to call him directly. Great guy to talk to.

Great news!

Thanks. I stole it from my local club CBPBA.

Here's another funny one, but to big to use as an avatar.
