12th Street Auto Sales ~
If the question is "would I buy another car from Jim Marino?" The answer is a definite "no!" As a buyer, that's the only thing you really need to know.
The car was extremely filthy on the inside - like checking into a hotel room that wasn't cleaned after someone else had checked out - it was gross. All the food and other crap under both front seats, took days to clean (some of it is still there!). The buttons, the knobs, the console, and all the surfaces were dirty.
The worse thing is, the car Jim Marino sold me has a MAJOR problem with the ventilation system which Jim played off as minor. I took the car to Jim's mechanic, who misdiagnosed the car (Top Value Muffler at 3317 Whipple St. NW) and as it turns out, the problem is much deeper & requires the DEALER for repair.
Oh well, BUYER BEWARE!
All cars are overpriced at this time, the Buick I bought from Jim Marino at 12th Street Auto Sales was no exception, I overpaid by about $3,000, which is actually less than many other dealers were asking for similar vehicles.
Jim's a nice guy, but I won't purchase my next car there.
HAD I GOTTEN THE CAR AT THE RIGHT PRICE - I WOULDN'T COMPLAIN (as much) read more
