Default OT: Front Row Auto in Portland, OR ?

Hi all,

I have a small OT question for our friends who live in Portland, Oregon. Do you happen to know a car dealer named Front Row Auto? If yes, can you give me your feelings about them (PM or email or post whatever you prefer)? Their address is 4118 SW Macadam, Portland OR 97239.

They have a car I am interested in, but the distance does not help for sure... OK, it is not a Porsche... it's a distant cousin... An Audi Allroad to replace my daily driver... If somebody feels like checking it out for me and giving it a "Rennfax" that would be fantastic !

Thanks!

I dont know them and havent ever been there so this is kind of useless info but I have noticed there prices are really really low all the time.

Might want to post your question on the PNW section of the Pelican forum.

I can check it out. What are you looking for, paint work, and condition. It going to cost you a $20 starbuck love card!!!

You might also want to surf the Audi sites before buying an Allroad (to get a feel for any potential issues, e.g. turbos or suspension).

If it checks out, looks like they might be located fairly close to Matrix Integrated (local indie Audi shop).

Thanks! I was going to ask for a place to get a PPI done. Looks like you just gave it to me! If things are good, I'll ask Matrix Integrated to perform a PPI on the car.

Allroad's do have issues with aging, but nothing I can't handle. Front end air suspension leaks (change the bags) and some possible oil leaks especially if the engine has been tuned up with a chip... But guess what I have in mind
A little Audi oil leak does not scare a Porsche owner right?
