Dealer's reputation/feedback

550Maranello · 02-27-2013, 08:56 AM

Hello,

I like a car being sold by a dealer in LA. Any site or forum where I can find a dealer's reputation/feeback and recommendations?

Best regards,

Orazio

I think that you found the forum.

For best results, post a link to the dealer's website.

dealeRater.com

its a very good site. Also check Google Reviews as dealers are looking at those a lot now too

Thanks.

Please bear in mind that one bad review for something so frivolous such as a missing piece of paper or a tiny ding can easily destroy what you've worked so hard to build.

Here is the site's link http://www.velocityporsches.com/about_us.html

I am interested in the '93 911.

Best regards,

Orazio

I dont know how the small independent dealers get rated. Have you spoken to them about the car? I know that a couple of the cars on that sight have been sold for many weeks

I had a very odd experience with Alex when seeking a car for a client. I called about a car he had listed and he said he'd sold it but was getting it back. I said I needed to see the car, to screen it for my client, and he said 'this isn't the car for you.' He seemed to want a commitment from me before seeing the car, and the car wasn't available to be seen anyway. I'll never be contacting him again.

No, it is a cabriolet. Nevertheless, I will let it pass.

I've dealt with Alex & Velocity motors before . Typical dealer BS . Tried to sell me a 86 Carrera with a burnt wiring harness. Told me it's not a problem & wanted 13K for this car . Anybody for a car b que. HA HA HA HA. Watch out. Most used car dealers are just that , Typical Used car dealers( full of SH.. )Gotta feel sorry for the average buyer that's not as knowledgeable as some of us . Getting ripped off is never any fun.
