packages and accessories on new cars

[billsander]

Is anyone else tired of how youbuy a new cars today. I remember a time when you went to the dealer, picked what engine, trans, radio, interior, color and other items and than the dealer would order a car made just for you. Today's dealers buy cars with different packages and expect you to buy what they ordered. You can't order a car with leather upholstery unless you order a top of the line model. Even then you might not get a choice of what color the interior will be. Why can't we go into the dealer check the boxes we want and have the car made for us? Is it asking to much.
