The LA Auto Gallery in Woodland Hills, CA on Ventura Blvd. They have a car I may be interested in purchasing.

I bought my 05 TTS from the Auto Gallery.......pleasant experience......drove a number of their cars in the sorting out process.

Overall on a 1-10 scale I'd give them a 6-7.......I don't like many dealers, and have seen few get higher than 8 in my book.

Their service is great for Porsche. Their used cars all look like they were polished with sandpaper.

I've had several bad experiences with these guys, although I did buy my turbo from them.

When I was looking at 360's, I couldn't even get a sales guy to speak to me even though they were standing around doing nothing. When I was shopping for my C4, I told the sales guy I was cross shopping for a Vette. He gave me some huge lecture about how that wasn't a real car and then told me that a Porsche wasn't for me...Lastly, when I was looking for my RS6, I talked to both a sales guy and the sales manager. They told me they expected to receive a couple in trade and that they would call me. They never called back, even after I called them to follow up...

With that being said, I do know someone personally who works as an Audi salesman who will take of you.

Got my first 996TT from Auto Gallery

I was treated well and the car was fine. Although I remember the sales guy telling me that Arnold was looking at my car the day before and wanted to buy it.

ari: I'm up in the Seattle area so I won't have to deal with them for service. Thanks for the heads up though.

Mike (La Jolla): Arnold is in your governor? That's a good one.
