I knew I wanted an Audi A3 (see sig) and test drove one at Boardwalk Audi in Plano, TX (North of Dallas). We couldn't agree on a price so when I returned to SA I made an online request. Got a call back from Mark at Cavender the online sales manager and he gave me info on the inventory and what was in-transit. After a month I decided to order becasue I need the cold weather pkg since I am returning to VA. I called ahead and told Mark exactly what I wanted and that I would come to the dealership to talk #'s in an hour. When I arrived he had the #'s ready, in writing, he covered everything in detail, and gave me an outstanding price with the first offer (they did better than my bank who negotiates for free). Mark is outstanding, my A3 has not arrived but he provides updates as he gets them, to include; production week, ship date, and estimated delivery to port and the dealership. So far I highly recommend Cavender, my A3 is due the week of 15 Jan and I will update this thread as necessary. Mark also took an extra 30 minutes to show my wife a Q7 after we did the A3 paperwork knowing we were not going to buy it anytime soon.

So far so good, Mark called to let me know my A3 is 100mi from port and has a good chance of arriving by the end of year, one month earlier than projected.

Do not go to Cavender Audi in San Antonio. When I ordered my A3 I told them that I needed to register the vehicle in VA since I am only in S/A temporarily. The called me yesterday to tell me that the car arrived and I could pick it up today. The sales manager called me back and told me I had to register the car in TX because it would take a week to register it in VA and they have to sell it by the end of the year. I worked it out with my bank to get it titled in VA with no help from the dealer. So I go into day and notice that my name is spelled wrong on the purchase order...quick fix. Then I notice that the jacked up the price $2000 from our agreed upon price. They make two counter offers and I say no. The sales manager starts whining about how they are only going to make $735 if they sale it to me at the agreed uponprice. I told him about this forum and they have the opportunity to get a good review and have more customers or get this review and lose money and customers. The choose not to honor thier word. BUYER BEWARE!!!
