    Ditto. A co-worker went to look at a car, and witnessed one of the salesman back into another car. Two months later he went to look at a different one, and the exact same thing happened

    For the smaller places, I've had good experience with Calgary Auto Quest, Calgary Auto Connection (owned by the same people if i remember correctly), Car Zone and Southview Motors. I'm sure there's more too haha.

    Calgary Auto Quest seriously? Was going to check out an X5 there but was turned off because it was in Forest lawn. Interesting that they have had some good reviews from beyonders..

    Yeah, Southview is in Forest Lawn too haha. With Auto Quest, a lot of their vehicles have previous claims/history, but they don't try to hide it and they seem pretty straight up about everything.

    The name alone is enough to keep me away. I'd bet the office is painted bright orange and green with $$$ approved signs on the windows.

    Funny this thread popped up as I was doing some research on them yesterday. From the pictures on the website it seems that the are in one way or the other related with or are the same as NEX2NEW cars and if I recall correctly that place is a big time red flag zone. Funny enough though, I was looking at Maserati's and on Kijiji it showed up that they had two and there was no mention of them on their website. Perhaps they hadn't updated it yet but either way, will be staying away.

    I just purchased a vehicle from these guys and had absolutely no issues. I found them upfront and honest and took care to go over everything in as much detail as I asked.

    Car was detailed very nicely for pickup and their mechanics seem honest.

    Of all the used car dealerships I've been to, I would put these guys near the very top.

    They seem to have a good inventory of German and other high-end vehicles and from what I could tell they take great care of them.

    They were easy to negotiate with as well.. took less than 48 hours to close the deal.
