Northwest Motorsport

[XAFSSGT]

I saw this pretty legit truck dealership on my way to Sea-Tac, and they were called NW Motorsports.

Does anyone have any feedback on them? I want to get a truck, and wouldn't hate it to be lifted with good tires, so I don't have to do it later.

I would appreciate any feedback about NW Motorsport or any solid truck dealer.

Thanks!

Pretty overpriced for what they sell. Have a friend that bought there though and he said service was good.

Quite a bit of feedback here, if it is affiliated or owned by the same people as the one in Puyallup.

I have a couple buddies that bought trucks there and said they had good service

Here's my take on NW Motorsports:

1. They lift everything they buy. I sold them a 2011 Chevy 1500 and within a week it was on their www lifted, on 35's and 20" wheels (their go to choice). I also saw a truck I like that was stock, lifted within a week, $10,000 more expensive and sold within days
2. If they buy it lifted, they spray the underside with a black rust resistant spray, if they lift it they do the same
3. They don't move on price since they lift almost everything (and put bigger tires on them) and forward that price onto you
4. They have a lot of choices, lots of price points
5. Go in there knowing what you want to spend, what the truck is worth, and GOOD Luck bartering with them

All in all, I've bought two trucks there. I've never felt swindled. You're buying a car, they are shady people. Do your research and be patient. Sometimes they have SMOKING deals...Others, they are ripping you off.

I'd buy again from them again. Hope I was helpful.

They are way over priced, they have a 2014 Tacoma TRD with 24k miles listed for $37,999.
Blue book is $27k

I priced out a brand new 2014, TRD for $35,760

They are selling a two year old truck for $2,000 over the brand new price.

Brother bought his dodge from them. Had a performance chip and lift AT THE DEALER.
Started having issues well within the warrantee period. When trying to take advantage of the warrantee they told him he was having problems because he lifted the truck, and that using a performance chip voids their warrantee!

STAY AWAY!

I think they are way over priced. There are better deals out there. I went to colville and bought my truck and that same year/ model with the same miles was going for average 5k more over here on the westside. Do some research around you will find a good deal.

Tell them "The Bone" sent you!

I always wondered, does that get you a discount or something?

I don't know.  I ran into him at the Phoenix airport during spring training last year.  He was carrying a NW Motorsports laptop bag.  I should have asked him.

I have always wondered how many guys go down there just because he is on their commercial.

  LOL, all this talk about a dealership being over priced.........

 Dealerships are in business to make money, as is any business. The market dictates the price, if they are so much more overpriced than the next dealership then they wouldn't be growing and expanding like they have been.

 I sold a truck to them a few years ago when they were starting out, gave me a good price and sold that same truck in less than 2 weeks at a higher price. If they "overpriced" it it would have sat there on their lot for a bit longer I'd imagine.

 XAF, it can't hurt to do your own research and price comparisons in hand when you go talk to them, the worst that can happen is you decide to go somewhere else.

Elkrunner is likely on the up-and-up, but....

That does not usually get a guy a discount.  In fact, it can get you an increased price.  Because you said “Joe Schmoe sent me,” they now have to pay for the “bird dog fee” that many dealerships offer to people who send you in to buy a vehicle from them. 

When I worked for Appleway Group in the Spokane Valley, back in the early 90’s our bird dog fee was $100 for a new car, $50 for used.  All they had to do was say “Skillet sent me” and buy a car.  Then, all I had to do was keep after those guys in the sales office to pay me.  They never offered it up on their own...

Thanks guys, I'm going to keep looking elsewhere!
