They sell great cars---if you're looking for a project. I wouldn't buy a car from them and expect it to be a reliable driver.

Yeah, I was just reading some other threads on this subject and that appears to be the census.

Thanks for your response.

All you need to do is read through their Yelp comments and ignore the 5 star shill reviews.

You are not getting any sort of a deal. If it ever seems like a good deal it's because it's in horrible shape. They know the market very well so if a car is worth $50k then it will be listed at $55-60k. I am about 10 minutes away. There is a rare opportunity there but the odds are no different than Vegas

They get good cars in - it almost seems it happens by accident - but when they do, the cars are snatched up quickly by the brokers who seem to live there...

Rule of thumb is that if a car makes it to their web site inventory and is on the site for more than 2 days, it's already been passed over by knowledgeable buyers.
