Awesome service, awesome people, i highly recommend them! It was quite a drive from markham to where they were in bolton, but it was definitely worth it & they exceeded all my expectations!

Next to the OCAD and AGO buildings, it is easy to find and conveniently located.

i saw saddle brown and the gray poplar wood trim, very classy/powerful colour combo and yet sporty imo. I also like the black and red leather, but ended up with this combo. i just fell in love with the colour i guess : ) lol

i dropped by the dealer today and noticed a chip on the door. yikes! I notified them, and they said they will fix it before delivery. Anyone know how they would do it? A paint repair brush pen perhaps?, then clear coat pen? or fill, sand and respray paint? Anyone know, i hope they do a good job, because the clean lines of the 3 coupe would really show imperfections! Most importantly, i would not like to wait another day! : )

Hey all!,
i just picked up my vehicle, and YES i am excited. They fixed up the chip on the door, exceptional job, its like it never happened. The chip was to the paint and at least 1 cm long. Its gone now, its like a new door! I will be going to pick up my koni yellows tomorrow, clearing customs myself near the airport. Gonna take my springs along and get them installed, then perhaps arrange an appointment for alignment. I will post pics soon! |

Oh, and i had my koni yellow sport set at the half way point between soft and hard, front and rear. The ride quality is amazing, reduced body roll, cornering is like hot knife in butter : ) Just wanted to let everybody know, for those who plan on koni's : )
