Anyone have any experience with this dealer? They advertise some of their cars in the classifieds here. They seem to have a few pretty good cars some of which do not seem outrageously priced. I did a search here for them but just get their posted ads. Google and Rennlist don't say much either.

Their GM Carl Janin apparently was or is a GM at RUF Motorsports who seem to have a good rep in the area for shop work. Anyone?

Search the forums. There has been plenty of commentary.

Care to offer up the cliff notes? All the ways I am searching (through this site, this site via Google, just Google, etc) are bringing up nothing.

I just had an exchange with them over a car I was investigating for a buyer. They had records of work done and the mechanic noted a serious engine deficiency on a recent record. They handed over the records without hesitation, but did not point out the deficiency. When I asked, they said 'it's been taken care of' but offered no proof. IMO a pretty typical used car dealer...

I was able to get fantastic assistance from a local Pelicanhead on this, and he's the one who uncovered the discrepancy. I am hugely grateful.
