Buying a Ma Audi?

[Jay Welsh <jwelsh@thecia.net>]

Just to show there's two sides to every conversation I have 
had nothing but good service from Pass+Weitz 
I got my car for 5% over invoice, no problems to mention and have gotten 
a general good feeling with their level of professionalism and knowledge

Who Knew they were idiots? ;-)

The only place I have had a bad experience is with IRA in Danvers Ma
when I went in and wanted to ORDER a car they would only sell me out 
of stock. Strange, but I simply went somewhere else.
 
Clair seems okay but they didn't want to move on price when I was there,
they do seem to know their parts though!

Brookline VW/Audi seemed too stuffy
Natick Bernardi VW/Honda/Audi has good VW service but they are kinda a
megelo-mart 
dealer and didn't get a good feeling when asked them a few strategic Audi 
knowledge questions.

Good luck it's a jungle out there, 
there's around 8 Audi dealers within an hour of Boston

Word of advice: avoid the Burlington Audi/Porsche dealer like _THE_ _PLAUGE_.
Honestly, our family has bought 3 cars from them(2 audis, 1 porsche) and
with all 3 there was always something amiss about the deal.  Not to mention
that we bought parts there(namely _Audi_ OEM shocks) and the guy changed
his mind about his warantee policy, which he seems to keep in his head and
changes whenever is serves him to.  Oh, and remember the fiasco with the
UrQ that wouldn't/couldn't go above some RPM(was it 2500?), and the car sat
for at least a month without anyone looking at it, they claimed they lost
parts in shipment, etc?)

Pass+Weitz I think, is the name.  Horrible place.  Stay away.

My economics teacher said he has bought 5 VW's from a place in cambridge
that does Audi/VW sales...can't remember the name.  He's friends with the
manager he's been such a long time customer.  Says that even if he's
looking to get a VW, he goes to the Audi sales people, because they were
the best salesmen in the place, and hence were "moved over" when the
dealership starting doing Audi buisness.
