Default Any info about this car or the dealer?

Hi guys,
this is the deal I found, I wonder if you guys know anything good/bad about the dealer. Or about this model of A4.
2006 AUDI A4 2.0T
I was planning to get the white one, most people say go with a quatro.

I ve read alot about A4, 80% of people say "better to get a quatro" for two reasons
1) to have a non cvt transmission
2) to have awd

now a quatro is only 2000 more than a non quatro model.
Used PORSCHE,BMW | Auto Dealer - GERMAN STARS MOTOR INC.

im stressed out. Any opinion/suggestion is appreciated

thank you .

about 2 years ago I got a Lexus is 300 from that dealer. The car had been in an accident and was repaired. The dealer told me about it and got the car inspected in a local Lexus dealer for me. Be 100% sure of the car history (carfax or something) . No vin number in add? My friend test drived a BMW while I was filling out my lexus paper work, and the BMW also was not accident free (stearing damage). Do your home work on the Audi chances are it was in an accident.

I have a 2004 A4 quattro and love it. Don't know too much about cvt sorry!

Hope it helps

cheers

This place is down the street from my house (Silverstar and Steeles) and I personall was going to purchase a Lexus RX330 from them about 6 months before I bought my A4. They were very sneaky and tried to avoid the discussion of accidents. Everytime I asked about if it was in an accident, they would change the topic so I took upon myself to check with Car Proof. Turns out, the car had a salvaged title. So if you are planning to purchase from them, run a check with Car Proof first. Car Proof checks US and Canada while Car Fax only checks US. Most cars at this German Stars place has really low milage and a ridiculously low price so I'm quite suspicious about their inventory but yeah, just use your own due diligence when picking out and purchasing a car from any dealer.

Good luck

if you get the VIN number, message me with it and I'll run a CarFax for you for free...

I would hate to have you lose money when you went to sell it and found out that it has accident damage...

ps: I would definitely go quattro...

Hi; I just purchased a 2004 Audi A4 from German Stars, my experience was nothing but perfect, very honest and professional, the salesman was open about the history of the vehicle and how they purchased it from an auction in the US, anyway, I would recommend them to my friends by the way, here is the VIN number if anyone can run a check on it

Thanks, Good Luck

Thanks guys, I got an A4 from Canadian Fine Motors, the first link. A low mileage car. bought from VW Florida. Checked the Car Fax. there has been just a bumber replacement.No airbag,engine issues reported. Done at VW Florida. Guys at Cdn Fine Motors showed me the carfax and Carpool History of the car there. One of the guys, name is Owen was annoying, to think about my offer he asked for a 500 deposit. I had to make him sign a paper saying that 500 is %100 returnable. Tried to explain him that it doesnt make sense to give 500 to get an answer for my offer. But he wasnt able to understand it.


And then he showed me the reports, but untill I gave the 500 deposit, no bumper replacement was mentioned. I took it to the AUDI Scarborough, checked everything and it was fine. I am happy about the car. But the dealer doesnt know anything about the customer relations. They treat you like **** - and you are paying 20+ grand there.
Ogh I got a month membership of carfax. if anybody needs any carfax check, you can let me know too.

MGirgis i have your report, where do u want me to send it?

Thanks S3RRO, I appreciate your help, could you please send the report to maged_girgis@hotmail.com Good luck with your Audi, you made a good choice, by the way, I went to Mississauga Audi to inquire about the warranty transfer, they advised me to fill out a change of ownership form "found in the service booklet" and mail it to Audi Canada, this way, your car can be serviced at Audi Canada under warranty, if you have any balance left and you probably do

Good luck

I've heard that Carfax is a useful search engine to find out the history of cars from the states.
