Anyone in Vegas willing to help me out?

I am looking to purchase a car from Norm Baker and was hoping that someone local could go down and check it out/drive it for me?

I would certainly make it worth your while (beer money?) as this would be a huge help to me.

I want to make a decision by the end of the week so if someone was able to run over and even just look at it for any issues, I would be forever in debt to you.

Give me a call at (914)-830-1559 if you think you can help me out.

Thanks in advance!

- Dave

Good luck, I just purchased from there and I'm very happy so far. Make sure you check the battery...as mine was not secured (they found the problem and fixed it before I even knew there was a problem). I dealt directly with Tim Donnelly (the GM) and I was pleased with the experience. Sorry I'm not local to Vegas, else I'd offer to check the car for you.

I have to take a moment to give big ups to Ritcci for going to do this for me!

No less than 10 min after my post, Ritcci calls me and says he would go and do it for me. When I asked him what day time he could swing by he said "hell, i'll go right now and be there in 15 min"

He was such a huge help and made buying my DREAM elise that i had never seen let alone drove, from a dealer i had never worked with, super easy. Ritcci not only went and looked at it, but he drove it, and gave me a full report with 10 pictures of things he noticed about the car!

Seriously, Ritcci you are a good man.

Just out of curiosity and in no relation to this what so ever , would you say you are more of a wine guy or scotch guy?

a nic:

So which one did you get? We need details here.

Hope you got what you wanted.

Way to go ritcci.
Although I think this was just a good excuse to, 1 go drive an Elise, 2 a good reason to go to the dealer to look around, 3 get out of the house.
