Beware Of Hi End Auto

I went termi shopping recently and was fortunate enough to find a fanatic that had multiple 03 and 04 cobras. This guy had cobras varying from clean to tapping and coupes to verts. Each of the models varied from stock to nearly 500 RWHP. I called the guy and talked to him before my visit, seeing as it was a 6-7 hour drive, and we discussed the basics. He offered that i can get financing through his dealership. Also, I inquired about a car that did not have pics but was listed on his site. He told me he just got it in and its ready to go, but he just hasn't got the chance to post the pics yet. Heres where everything got twisted. I drove 7 hours to this place and the competition orange that i was looking at was not ready. It needed front tires to drive home(they were bald like an old pair of back tires) in order to pass my inspection it needed cats to be added and tint to be stripped. Instead of taking the price down he offered only to Put tires on for 150$ a piece, and cats for $200. Keep in mind this guy (owner of Hi End Auto of appomattox VA) told me earlier this week that he doesn't buy cobras without cats because they were most likely beat on... ass. So i decide this car is out of my reach and i test drive a redfire coupe that drives looks and acts completely stock.. And believe me i was in heaven. We decide to procede with the deal and he takes me to his dealer for financing. Would you believe this asshole doesn't even know the hours they work. I drove to the dealership at 3:30pm to find nobody's home. being as this cobra has only 30000 miles, higher than the others i've looked at, i wound up providing mjy own financing. It the occurs to him that the car is not inspected yet... and he cannot send it home with me, BUTTT... Conveniently enough, he can ship it to me for 350$ and for an additional 350$ he can ship my trade in to his dealer.. I know i'm almost Ranting at this point, But i left this morning at 7 AM and got ho0me at 10 PM. All this guy had to say was, i'll check to see what we can do for financing, and you can't take the car home so you might as well wait till its ready. I guess i'm pissed off for many reasons, But this guy just wasted 16 hours in one day, an oil change, and 700 miles on my car that i'm getting rid of. This guy is a Pharmacist with the "Hobby" of selling cars, and please beware of dealing with him. He is in west virginia, he seems to have the best cobras on the east coast as far as dealers go. But this guy does not know how to run a dealership. Hes just a guy with a lot and a hobby. I drove 7 hours there and he didn't even know when HIS financing was open and that his car wasn't ready... I'm fucking pissed and that being said... be careful. If anyone wants to console me, feel free.

yeah, i had a 6 and a half hour drive home to come to terms... and the whole way i home i was thinking about how to make everyone aware of what happened. Modded Mustangs is Phase 1 of the process.

well, you did a good job of making people aware of this guy, this is the first link on google when I type in his dealership. I won't travel the 20 minutes to see his dealership, not worth my time.
