I know it's been discussed before, but what's the deal with Luxury Motors?
The RS6 they now have listed on eBay (it's been in their showrooms for months) is clearly advertised as "One Owner." That's in their headline and the b.s. copy.
But run a CarFax on the VIN, and it's FOUR OWNERS.
Just another scam, or what?
I actually e-mailed them through eBay, and they got back to me saying "We'll check on it and respond," which they never did.<ul><li><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=454604516 2&category=6004">RS6 @ Luxury Motors</a></li></ul>

What I wanna know is, how the **** do they get all of that inventory???
I'm convinced that place is an Al Queda front. There's some SERIOUS-*** cash sitting on that lot. And now they own two lots across the street that are completely filled with VERY EXPENSIVE cars.
WTF?!?!?!?!?!!!!!

I'm not sure, but...
I think they specialize in buying "distressed inventory". Demos, early trades, cars that are returned shortly after puuchase. Buying slow moving inventory or coveted allocations from dealers that can't move the product. I could be wrong, really I could, but I'm just guessing.
I'm assuming that they make money somewhere as they don't have extensive repair facilities so their profit from service can't be much. In a lot of dealerships, the "back end" pays for the "front end" - that's nothing new. Maybe they make enough off of their financing?
I've never dealt with them at all, all I can say is I've never heard a single positive thing about them - only BIG negatives. Granted it's all third-hand info, so YMMV.

I bought my car there but
I think it has to do with the deal you get into. I am happy with my TT but I have heard some bad things, and then I have heard some good things too, Just be careful and check out the deal first. The RS6 should be a no go IMO. You already know that they are not being totally honest. 4 owners or 1? I say get a different car, whether it be from them or someone else.

You sure? I was told no one was fired that day.
I went few weeks ago there since my buddy picked up a 4.6 X5 and the we asked the finance guy about it. He said the porter went out and some chick almost cut in front of him so he gunned it around her but lost traction.
He said that he still works there.
