| - Wow, this place was hopping busy when we came in to test drive a few used Minis. I think it was actually the first time I've ever had to go find a salesperson on a car lot. I liked it, though - we were able to check out their used inventory without a shadow, then decide which ones to try out.
We worked with Lisa, a Mini Cooper veteran. She was super friendly, very chatty (I love talkers... quiet people put me on edge), had tons of knowledge and a great sense of humor. She quickly accommodated my hubby's requests to drive various cars.
Some notes:
1) They were having a great new vehicle sales event, with tons of traffic (punny) and sales closing all around us. This affected the length of our transaction... not at all. We took more time driving/deciding than they did to complete the financing and get the car ready.
2) The used car prices were 'on sale' and good deals. We checked more than a few against Blue Book and each was a good $500-2,500 under.
3) Financing was super simple with an even better interest rate than I ever expected. Woo hoo!
4) There was one minor repair to be made; their service department was closed for the day so my hubby scheduled an appt for the following weekend. Repairs are now done - and he got new rear brakes at no charge, to boot. He got a loaner while the car was in the shop, and they washed his before returning. They actually did a great job, all around.
5) Only negative... really, only a water dispenser with dixie cups? It's summer in Phoenix... invest in a cooler of chilled bottled water. Nice complimentary coffee/espresso/hot cocoa/latte machine though!
A really good car-buying experience. We would buy from here again.
