We're being a bit selective on test driving people (due to the amount of test drives done today.... car already has over 40 miles, came in with 13).

Thanks again

No problem Dave! Thanks for waiting around so long for us LOL. Too many people came in at the same time... I'm off today and still have 2 more people coming in to pick up their Whiteout and Firestorm.

Unfortunately that's the case. We had tons of random people drop in today looking to test drive. A handful that had deposits (invited in) get to do so along with those that have been doing business with Longo for a while (an FJ owner I helped when I was in Parts, buyers that have previously purchased a vehicle from Longo, etc). I was planning to only be here to gas up cars today but ended up selling all of my arrivals today. Been here for 12 hours... D:

If you want to come drive the manual one (our demo), please contact David Gentry and he'll be able to schedule an appt for test drive.

We'll be able to test drive the demo before the purchase right? Lol can't wait. Just two more weeks. My dealership in noho told me they received three today including a whiteout FRS, but I'd rather buy it from you. I'm attached to the one on the boat already lol ;D

Yeah I checked with the NOHO dealer too, just a heads up they told me they were probably going to be marking it up with add ons. Lol after looking awhile in my area i figured I would just call and ask them before I drove all the way up there. And hey at least they were honest about it.

Well I work there so they told me they wouldn't mark it up beside the appliqué n some other thing, but Jeff has just always get me updated so if I don't get the one at Noho they will probably put add ons ("mark up")

LeavingNormal · 05-29-2012, 01:03 AM

Ah nice yeah the trunk carpeting and the appliqué are the only markups I'm getting too, DCH in Torrance has been adding some alarm that's been bringing it up to 27k, they just tried to sell me a 2nd car after I walked out on them Saturday, same add on's.

Do you work sales at NOHO Julio? I may have spoken with you at some point from Friday-today. Haha sorry I'm terrible with names.

RiskyTrousers · 05-29-2012, 01:08 AM

Picked mine up this morning! Its the only Raven MT in the list.

Thanks to Ryan and Jeff who made me feel more like a guest than a car shopper.

If anyone is shopping dealers to put a deposit down you'd be a fool not to go with Longo.

I'm gonna go drive some more now....

Yeah I work there but in service not in sales. If you do end up buying there, go to Michael (has goatee, very friendly charismatic guy) or Alex (has a ponytail, patient knowledgable guy) and tell them Julio from service, the guy getting his FRS from Longo (in those words lol) recommended to go to them.

What color n transmission did u want?

Oh after talking to them I actually got a deal from at Hooman Toyota in LBC. They only added carpet and appliqué, I have my deposit down with them. I spoke to one of the guys at NOHO, either David or Enrique, they told me you guys got em in this morning, but couldn't sell them till June 1st.

Originally I had wanted a Hot Lava 6speed. But ended up with a whiteout 6spd. No biggie I love the white too.

Oh okay koo. They told me I can pick it up today if I wanted, but maybe it's because I'm an employee. I had the whiteout 6 speed MT on hold for me so by tomorrow when I give them the bad news that I won't be gettin it from them it'll maybe be up or grabs.

Man I dunno how you had the self control not to grab that car. Especially since its there where you work. Didn't you just want to take it fora joy ride?
