Nice to meet you all - I searched the faq cursorily but don't see anything about this - anyone ever buy new in a city where there's no dealership? (Winnipeg, dead center of the bald Canadian prairie.)
There's a terrific Euro / racing-oriented service shop here that I've used in the past but warranty issues concern me. Is it typically possible to negotiate a price that would exclude warranty coverage?
Doesn't seem like an overly complicated car anyway; back in the day I serviced my own MGB, which I miss dearly, except for the heavy stuff, like that stupid clutch plate...
But then I get to wondering whether this is a good idea. I'm not overly cool with the idea of getting a used one; I would imagine they tend to have the $%^& driven out of them.
(I'm interested in an Exige 260, BTW. Long order lead time?)
TIA for any info
