Contacted them 2 times about a Bentz I was interested in

Contacted them 2 times about a Bentz I was interested in purchasing and they never emailed me back or called me back...I guess the person in charge over the past 2 weeks was not interested in a sale. Wow I've been in sales over 40 years and you would have heard back from me within 30 minutes.

I was looking at a 1988 Ford Crown Victoria, called about

I was looking at a 1988 Ford Crown Victoria, called about it because it was very clean but in the ad it stated that it had a coyote motor, but in the images it shows a 5.0L pushrod motor, stock motor. which I wouldn't complain but they wanted $20,000 for a car that at most maybe $10,000. I called them and talked to them and they weren't willing to hear it. The funny part they dropped the price ......$1000 so now it's $19,000 lol yeah you can keep the car lol

Have tried several times to purchase a vehicle that these

Have tried several times to purchase a vehicle that these folks claim to be representing. I'm not sure why they feel it's acceptable to advertise vehicles that they don't own, or to claim to represent sellers when they don't return calls or emails, but this is their business model. Sadly, I can't find a single car they are "representing" that is actually in their possession, and therefore, I can't actually but the cars I see. How is this even legal? Why does cars.com allow these people to advertise cares they don't own?

One of the worst car-buying experiences I’ve ever had.

One of the worst car-buying experiences I’ve ever had. On June 5, 2025, I purchased a 1970 Chevelle SS from Gateway Classic Cars. I was told by Salesperson Justin Slaton that: • The car was in “perfect working condition.” • The engine was new with only 400 miles and produced 700 HP. • The air conditioning worked. • The vehicle was a true Chevelle SS. These statements were made verbally and in their ad materials. I relied on these representations when deciding to purchase the vehicle. When the car arrived in Florida on June 18, the truth became immediately apparent: • The A/C didn’t work at all. • The engine made loud noises and failed completely during my first short drive. The car had to be towed. • My mechanic confirmed catastrophic engine failure and advised not to even restart it. • An expert inspection by a local Classic Car mechanic revealed metal shavings in the oil and severe internal damage. Worse yet: After professional research, the car turned out to be a Malibu Sport, not a true Chevelle SS. This is a value difference of over $30,000. Total estimated damages: 💸 $15,000 – Engine rebuild and A/C repair 💸 $30,000 – Devaluation due to false SS claim = $45,000 in total loss. I understand buying a classic car “As Is,” but misrepresenting the engine, working condition, and authenticity of the car is fraud—not just bad salesmanship. If you’re considering a purchase—don’t take them at their word. Triple-check everything independently. Their “quality control” and honesty are clearly lacking.
