Straight Line Automotive in Dallas?

Jeremy Wiggains is the owner.
Do a search.

 

We just left there. Went to look at a Continental GT that sold this morning before we got there. One of the salemen is Dale B. He is well known in the Dallas area and Ferrari world. I have bought several cars from him over the last 6 years. Great guy, very honest and helpful. Recommend calling him personally.

 

I bought our 996 from Jeremy. He buys auction cars and flips them and does not pretend to be anything else. I found him very easy and honest to work with, just be prepared to know the car you are looking at with regards to potential maintenance items as the dealership does not know anything about the cars they buy. I went back to him when shopping for our Maserati but found another car elsewhere. Their inventory is MASSIVE.

 

I am pretty sure Dale is working with JAndretti off Oak Lawn... different company that Straight Line...

Straight Line does bring most of their MB in to Park Place... and they seem to cover all their bases ( Has the cars checked out and gets done what needs to before sale ) They take care of their clients

< shrug > just a worthless bit of info.

You are correct, Dale was at Andrettis until last week. He is now at Straightline. Andrettis has hired some ex-Hooters girls to work there-doesn't sound like a bad thing to me.

 

I have known Dale for ten years now. When it is time for a new car, I always call him first,. I have kept up with him through several dealerships. Great guy, I can't say enough nice things about him. Straightline has an unbelievable inventory with new cars coming in every week.

 

Thanks for your message Drew. Enjoy the hunt. Similar to hunting and marriage, after you pull the trigger, you are stuck with it. Make sure it is what you want, or you will forever be searching for an upgrade. Dale is nice, honest guy. If he doesn't find the car you want this time around, chances are he will are car Number 2- which is a lot less expensive than wife #2,3,4 ...

 

Wouldn't recommend it.

 

Man of few words.

TheCarMan...Why? I know Jeremy well and and not passing judgment on any side, just wondering what in your experience left a bad taste in your mouth.

 

Still waiting.

 

Then please explain.

 

Interesting. He signs up to resurrect a 3 year old thread to say something bad.

 

Just to go on the record, I have known him for at least 10 years now and have bought several cars from him . I know a lot of people that have purchased cars from Straightline and I have never heard a complaint. When I am in the market for a new car, they are the first place I look.

 

Same experience here. I have traded and bought cars from Jeremy. I have also sent quite a few people over that have bought from them. Nothing but good experiences from all. I am curious what the car man's story is.

 

Agreed, the guys over at Straightline are A+ !

Straightline is on the short list of suggested places to buy nice, high line cars!

They are an awesome group of people.

 

Do they negotiate off of their internet pricing or what's the deal there?

 

yes i think so.

 

STAY AWAY FROM STRAIGH TLINE. I had a nightmare dealing with them. Misrepresentations and Multiple issues with the car, including an inoperable odometer (so that mileage could not be accurate).
They kept the car 7 weeks trying to fix it. They kept the title 6 weeks before sending it.
The car was not accurately described.
Horrendous communication.
I ended up sending the car back, losing several thousand dollars (shipping fees, negotiated restocking fee) but it was cheaper than trying to sort out this car. (Yes, I had a PPI done, as well, but the odometer was not caught).
Once returned, I am still having a nightmare getting my refund of $45,000.
Don't let them sell to you off of ebay, either, as you lose your protections. They pulled the ad once we had a verbal deal and I have no ebay protection.
My advice: STAY AWAY from them. Anyone wanting more details about my experience can contact me.
