Hey Chicago!

[Flated]

Headed to Chicago in a couple weeks to buy a GenIII 400, most of which seem to be on dealer's lots. That bein' the case, I can't really drag a prospective car off to another mechanic for a close look under the pretty exterior, so it seems I'm stuck with trusting a dealer (arrrgh!) on his service department's assessment of the vehicle's condition beyond the obvious flaws. Who in the Chicago area ya gonna trust? I'm afraid I don't trust any of 'em; they're in business to move those wheels off the lot, and the further they can get a beater from town the better! So who would you recommend (besides staying home)?

My neighbor across the street both purchased our 98 LS 400s from the same Lexus dealer in Westmont (Chicago burb). I think it really depends on the sales person you are dealing with. I would agree that they really want to move cars but the sales person we had was awesome. He was not pushy and there was not a lot of haggling with price. The dealership treated us pretty good. It was McGrath Lexus in Westmont. Just my own two ceents.

Somewhere on this forum is a section that addresses Lexus dealers where people can leave comments. The isn't a whole lot of info but it might help
