Bought my audi s4 from them a little over a year ago. I traded in my truck that was breaking down fast (probably blew a head gasket pulling in) and looking to build my credit. First off they left little to no gas in the tank, not a big deal I thought.. Drove the car around everything felt fine. It had the airbag light on, I should've just walked away then. But the salesmen assured me they take care of their cars and it was just a sensor.. (Turned out being the Airbag control module $950 for the part alone). The radio was in safe mode, the owner could not find the unlock code. So instead of taking the time to find the code the owner just pulls the radio out and swaps in with another s4 radio. (To me thats bad ethics seeing how the vin of the radio is not going to match the car, so I always have to keep that specific code somewhere accessible) I got a decent deal for the car with my trade in (If the car was in great condition I would not be mad at the price). Right after driving it off the lot to go fill up the gas tank, my check engine light turns on.. weird.. (3 codes 02 sensor, SAI, TQ convertor). It all clicked when I remembered how long the salesmen spent in the car initially when he had to "start and warm it up". I am positive he cleared the codes with a OBD reader before I hopped in the car. How can those 3 codes just magically pop up all at once literally a few miles after start up, why else keep the gas tank low. When I finally got the car up for a tune up I noticed the spark plugs were shot, oil was thick, missing bulbs in taillight. All in all I learned my lesson the hard way buying my first car. I would never trust these shmucks with any car, they are the classic image of the horrors people are afraid of when buying a car. If you do decide to buy from them, get a second private party inspection. KNOW YOUR STUFF about whatever car you are buying, they are the biggest liars.
