Top notch experience from the start that went beyond my
Top notch experience from the start that went beyond my expectations for buying a vehicle. I would highly recommend this dealership for your next car purchase.
2005 Ford Thunderbird 50th Anniversary
I absolutely love this car. My only wish is that I can find a Hard Top to put on it at a reasonable price. But I still love this car. I am sorry but I do. It puts a smile on my face. And I didn't have to pay a fortune for it either. It still looks like new, and it drives great, and it handles excellent. It is the Torch Red w/Black Ink Interior. And this is to the guy that says the 3.9 engine is underpowered, you are nuts, this thing screams down the highway, not that I am a speed demon, but it does. I don't know what else to say about this Thunderbird, but I wish I had bought one many years ago. Nuff said.

Monty Samad helped me with the sale of my Tahoe.
Monty Samad helped me with the sale of my Tahoe. He was quick with getting the appraisal complete and to me. After the offer he even worked to price match from other buyers to see if I could get a better price. I’d highly recommend talking to Monty about any vehicle purchasing or selling needs you have.
Best sports car I ever owned

Very good dealer.
We used this dealer for service for our 2007 Forester until it was time to trade up to our new Ascent. Services and sales were both great and responsive. We'll be getting our service for the Ascent done here too.
Always wanted to own one of the "retro" 'Birds
I love the way the car looks. Beautiful exterior design. Finding the 93 octane ethanol-free gas can be a pain, though. I bought mine used from a dealership. They didn't check her out - of course she was only on the market less than 48-hrs. before I bought her. The cobwebs under the hood should've let me know the previous owner didn't drive her enough. The "recommended" recall on the coil packs was not done. Two went bad, so I replaced all 8. Expensive! The engine light and damned "wrench" light came on 200 miles after replacing the COPS. The computer error code kept indicating COPS. It was not. Long story short, and $2,500.00 later, I had TWO computers replaced. Ford no longer makes them, so they're hard to find. Once installed, they have to "talk" to each other. Mine wouldn't. An expert on Jaguar engines was consulted, and he had to bring all his diagnostic equipment. My bird was in the shop for 2 months. Finally fixed - she had to "re-learn" almost everything, but after two weeks of driving, she was back to normal. Now, she runs like a "scalded cat"! I am a T-Bird nut, so to me, it was worth spending the money to get her repaired. She has 57,000 miles on her. I was told these cars, with the 3.9 liter Jaguar engine HAVE to be driven. They cannot "sit". Fine with me. I LOVE this T-Bird, and regret nothing. Now she is with an owner that will take care of her. Whisper White with Black Leather interior, removeable hardtop with black convertible top underneath. Small trunk, but I didn't buy her to stuff the trunk full of things. A really, really awesome car - if taken care of.

My T-Bird
Cherry. Drove back to Florida from Ohio. Cold to rain to the heat of Florida. Car tracked great. Plenty of power. Amazingly comfortable for a two-seater. Multiple compliments.

Had great communications with Jesse and scheduled a test
Had great communications with Jesse and scheduled a test drive which was fine except for getting to Walmart to stop and return and discovering the key was back at the dealership, so almost got stuck. Later bought the car and went smoothly except got home and tire pressures were from 34 to 55 psi, and rear wiper package was left on and scratched window before I discovered it.

I had my Porsche in storage for the winter. I was involved in an accident with my daily driver and totaled it, so I needed to get the Porsche out of storage asap. Usually a 30 day notice is needed, but the staff made it happen to get it done asap. That is Customer service!! I love that place and their staff and I maybe one I could be working for them 😎

Very good business with Alan & RPM Motorcars
I recently bought a 2008 Porsche Boxster from this dealership. Alan was very professional and stood by his words all the way! It was a very difficult purchase to begin with because It was a blind purchase and I had to make my purchase based on the impression I received from Alan. When I finally got the delivery of the vehicle in Denver Colorado, I realized that Alan was an honest salesman and he meant every word he said. From the long distance phone deal to remote signing and financing, he was right on time and exactly as he promised. Very good character and a man I will do business with in the future. Thank you Alan. I highly recommend Alan and RPM Motorcars!!!

We managed to come to an agreement and purchased the car
We managed to come to an agreement and purchased the car we wanted. There was not much negotiation, but the car was well priced to begin with. We agreed to pay $500 additional in order to drive the car away and have our mechanic inspect it. We got a week to report any issues and could return the car for a full refund if not satisfied by any necessary repairs. Ultimately the car checked out and the only problem was a piece of windshield trim that flew off on the way home. We negotiated a $200 refund and got the repair done by our mechanic so we didn’t have to drive the car back to the dealer. So far, so good.
