Without saying too much, I personally would not buy a car from this outfit. I have visited them (www.nwicars.com) and they carry a lot of high-end stuff. But I believe they are slicksters and based on what others have told me, and from what I have observed, let me just say I'm not surprised at this thread. this is only my opinion though.

Sad to hear that you had to come all the way to portland to find this out though. Next time, ask a local to check out the car for you in person before coming all the way. I do it all the time for people who ask.

Cheers,
Gerry
