Best NW Scion Dealer
Where are you buying your FRS (or BRZ) from?
Wilsonville Toyota (OR) is at the top of my list at the moment. |

I did mine through Gresham Scion since they were solid sponsors of scionlife.com when I ran it. 2nd place would have been Vancouver Scion since I used to work in the part dept over there.

I rarely visit SL anymore, but occasionally I pop in there. Do you have an FR-S or BRZ on the way, LivingLegend?

Mind if I asked who you talked to there? I've been by there a couple times trying to see if they had one. I hate to just walk in and get who ever is on deck if you know what I mean. LOL

The guy that I originally placed the deposit with had to leave, so my transaction was finished up with a stranger. Nobody that I really know, so I can't recommend anyone.

Their show room is one of the best in Toyota dealers. But I don't like their policy, or the way they execute their policy. The first time I went there was about 2 year ago, looking for a Camry with my friend. They said they don't negotiate on price. We were not satisfied with the price and we left. (though we were dragged in to all kinds of talks for 3 hours.) The 2nd time I contacted them was about 2 months ago (for another car), I got a quote and it was way higher than I get from many other dealerships. I know they won't lower their price so I said thank you and good bye in my second email. Then the bad thing happens. They keep on emailing me saying or threatening me how frustrated I will be when I negotiate price with other dealers or how bad the other dealers can be when they talk about the price. I really don't like this. You have you no-bull policy, OK, I respect. But your price is almost always higher than many others. I mean I don't even need to negotiate with others and I get lower price straight away. I don't see a point of them doing this. But this doesn't annoy me. What make me angry (almost) is that they'll threaten you how bad you can be when you are with other dealers. Perhaps they are good when you buy scion with them. Because you probably won't need to talk about price. I on average help one of my friends with car purchase every month, I've been dealing with many dealers. Some are straightforward. Some likes to play tricks. I just can't like them. Last edited by motofan; 06-10-2012 at 07:44 PM. Reason: minor typo |

I would definitely recommend Rodger from Kirkland Scion, super to work with.
And also Tim and Jason at Spokane Scion. I had a great experience there, nice people, no pressure. No mark up. They even let me swap out the tires from my old car onto the FRS. |

Got mine from Scott McKowen at Wilsonville Scion. First white MT they got.
His phone is 5035829040. Overall a good guy. Was shooting emails back and forth for a few months before I came in. Don't know about their current allocation. |
