Arapahoe=Don Massey right. worst dealer in the world. the sold me a very broken 98 gst. i salesmen who later quit told me they knew it had several major problems that i could not see and were not present on the 2 mile test drive. they did not tell me of them. new engine blew the next morning when i was driving it for the second time. i was in 5th, not accelerating. they replaced engine (mitsu warranty) took over a month (no loaner and they would not sign for liability on rental). continuely lied about progress of car in that month+. severe clutch problems when i got it back, replaced every part of the clutch and had a brand new tranny. did not go away. installed my new turbo backwards. several other problems i don't feel like discussing, but they "fixed" them 4 times and still did not go away. went in to complain, they said they wanted to help and would gladly let me trade in for something, offered me half of what i paid them in cash 6 months earlier(car in shop for 3 added <1000 miles). i moved from co partly b/c of them and i did not have the time or resources to go through the lemon process. lawyer told me i had to go to court on my own first and file tons of paperwork, it would take 2 years and I had a <50% chance of getting my purchase price back. they are a bunch of scam artist especially that snake of a general manager. dustin is the biggest a$$hole ever. sorry for the rant.

 

well thats your story not mine! we just bought a new '05 Evo from Arapahoe and Dustin hooked it up!! A few of my friends that drive Evo's go there and would agree to go to Arapahoe over any other dealer

 

what does this have to do with the price of cheese? is this dustin? i quoted you b/c i had a question for you that you only indirectly answered by defending the worst dealer i have ever been to or heard of (beisdes one guy here who's dealer stole his car). i did not call you liar or anything, i was just telling the OP that dustin specificaly treated me like ****. he habitually lied to me and and my family, and that makes him a liar, regardless if he did not lie to you. he talked down to me, never called once to tell me anything about the progress of my car, kept my car for months w/ giving me a loaner or a rental car. he will rip some kid off again i am sure. you bought a new car with no problems and they did not install any parts on it. he did not have an oppurtunity to rip you off so your story is pointless. if you have a situation where you had a problem and he bent over backwards for you, then you can use that as an example as to why he is a nice guy. i also know of an audi from there who went through a similar situation and ended up returning the car. the next week the audi, which had major problems, was for sale again.

i hope none of your friends work as a mechanic there, they installed my new turbo wrong, over tourqed my head (i believe this caused my two cyls to misfire from 0 miles on my new engine they installed), could not fix my new oil return line even given 4 chances, installed my new tranny and new clutch wrong, starter was bad, claimed i just needed to replace the battery, they duct taped my side skirts on b4 i bought the car, which fell off of course. i had more problems i can not directly attribute to them or prove they knew about. did not fix 1 thing and they even tried to get me to trade in for 7k less then what i had bought the used car for from them.

 

First off...I don't know if Arapahoe=Don Massey nor do I care!! Second...This is not Dustin!! Third...It sound like YOU didn't have a USED car checked out before you bought it or to see if duct tape was holding up the side skirt!!!(good job on your part!!) Fourth...If you would have read the post above it said FRIENDS THAT DRIVE EVO'S not Friends that work as mechanics there!! Fifth... All I was trying to say from the start of this before you came on to this post was that I had a great experience there!! Thats all!!!
