Autowest is your best bet. If you can, try to deal with Internet sales, as they get a flat commission no matter how cheap they sell the car

I liked Autowest, a bunch of kewl guys work there and they were not TOO pushy. Just make sure you know what you want when you walk in and it will be a pleasant experience.

regardless of where you go, if the first question from the salesperson is "how much can you afford every month?" turn around and run.

Even if it was the dealer that tried to eff you in the a over their mistake when they ordered up a wagon bumper when you gave them a correct VIN number, and told them you needed a bumper for a sedan?

autowest is fine if you russian guys bumrushing you wnet you walk on the lot... youd think it was a bimmer dealership.

i go to maita... the sales staff are retarded and thus easier to take advantage of. shingle springs is by far the best dealership around, just not always easy to make the drive
