Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Todate, it is 1 day shy of 30 sense I purchased MY 2014 Audi A6 3.0 Quattro...TDI (if ya know ya know.) I had driven a similar A6 earlier that day. (I had a trusted buddy with me, Alex, 'drives a "street legal" 2003 Mustang Cobra and worked in a race car shop. ((I think I need say no more about that LOL)). ..I'm waiting for th owner to answer the door and Alex went straight to the tires and breaks saying to me "no, I don't need to drive this one." As we headed to my 3PM appointment at River City Motors, I said "that's more than enough care for me". Alex began the list of 'why nots'. IT Was A Nice car. Jennifer (at RCM) is a real pleasure to work with IF ya wanna call it 'work'... My back was partly toward th door when Dave walked in. I felt like a brother just entered the room. Maybe because we are both Veterans IDK) Why Jennifer handed Alex the key, I don't know and don't really care..LOL As we approached this car, Alex said "oh yeah, I'll drive this one". I opened th passenger door... My eyes wide and mouth agap... I said "Oh My Gosh! This is a car - this Is The one". Alex 'tested' it, then I got behind the wheel.. SOLD...get me bk to th barn so I can buy this one.. (("I GOT to get me One of these.' Will Smith line in movie INDEPENDENCE DAY.)) Alex has a saying " IF you're not looking back at your car when you walk away, you bought the wrong car". As of today - YOU HAVE ONE DAY LEFT TO GO TO RCM AND GET YOUR LABOR DAY SPECIAL. I debadged th Audi and put my own coat of wax on it th 1st day I got it home. A day or so later, I had 2 blond-haired 'surffer type' fellas 😉 clock me... In a convertable BMW.. A straight stretch was commin' up and about 6 cars in front of me, (it was clear we both knew the road) I 'stepped out' and swallowed 5 of the 6, b4 taking my place bk in line. I could see 'dude' shifting for all he was worth and his BMW lunging w ea gear. Then he pulled in safely behind me and then raised up above his front wind screen to offer 2 thumbs up salute. (Badges removed.. ya don't know what dadz driven until Im a good country mile in front of ya.) This car is pristine - fleet owned 9mo and one owner 9yrs. Go to RCM. Tell em I said hey.

Came in after going to many different places and they helped me immediately find the perfect car, even fixed the windshield. Highly recommend RCM.Posted on Ryan OFarrellTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I bought a 10-year old BMW from Dave six months ago and recently took it into the BMW dealership for a recall repair, they also dissected the car to look for issues. They couldn't find anything wrong with the car. It drives great, the tires and brakes are like new. Dave was easy to work with and very reasonable in his pricing. The sales process was fast and efficient, much better than the big dealerships, skip them and check out Dave's cars.Posted on John West
