My experience was not that great. Had my heart set on the exact car I now own, but they would only give me $11,500 for my trade in. KBB.com valued it at $13,200. He said if I get anyone to give me a better trade in to take it. So I did. The other dealer that I got the Box from gave me $13,500 with just the VIN and some emailed pics.

The salesman at LM was nice, the "closer" was kind of an ass. I told him I wanted to be here at $XX,XXX for a difference of about $1600. He barely budged from what the price of the car was on the website. I told him I had already got $XX,XXX ok'd from the bank and could go no more, so he told me to put that extra $1600 on my credit card! I let my girlfriend finish her glass of chardonnay and walked. I fully intended to drive off with the new Box that day, I guess they wouldn't have been able to pay the electric bill taking a huge "hit" like that.

Bought my box there...questionable as to why so many cars dont have ANY records/manuals with them.

Great price though on my box and very reasonable on my trade at the time. You just need to get past the high flying salespeople, euro music thumping in the background, and hype they bring to make you feel "special". If your not comfortable you can just walk away!

That's too bad there are so many horror stories from this place. When I bought my car they did try to dick me over on my trade in, but I held firm because I knew what it was worth and I got what I wanted in the end.

As for paperwork, I got every manual and piece of paper that every was issued with my Boxster, including the original window sticker.

I'd buy from them again only if they dealt with me fairly like they did when buying my Box.
