both cars were brand new with no tags and mechanics/salesmans/porters/KIDS racing them towards Jim Ellis on 41
There is no way after that I would buy a hot rodded car from them when they transfer or show them @ diffirent places the race them back and forth.
In the rain no doubt to
I have seen and had a few problems with them before and now with what I saw today I believe most of the horror stories I hear now about JE
Hope no one here is buying a red 05 S4 this weekend from JE thats in our group here

As a dealership that kinda Caca is ridiculas when we pay for a new car we don't wan't it hot rodded by everyone before hand!

Quit and will buy a Mercedes Benz and one thing about those cars the service is Great and always get a equal loaner.
And have found my next audi ( snickering ) and bought it from a private person ( contingent of my inspection @ time of pick up and audi 122 point inspection attached ) and no tax so its worth it for me to stay with nalley its a 2003 with 12885 miles on it.
And he is the original owner and I know where he bought it at.
Used but reasonable

I'm fairly certain the Ellis family would not look kindly on their behavior.

Don't let a couple rotten apples spoil the bunch. I've had excellent sales experiences with both Nalley and Jim Ellis, including today, at Jim Ellis Mazda. Helped a friend of mine pick out a new Mazda3. Of ALL the dealerships we visited trying to find her the right car, Gossett VW, Honda Carland, Cobb Toyota, and Nissan (in Roswell), Jim Ellis Mazda had the nicest and most professional sales staff. We did our homework beforehand and knew the right price to ask for. No games, no hassles. No harder than buying a big-screen TV.

humps that are in the parking lot. That should help with the break-in significantly.

And the scheduled Audi service includes a complimentary "test drive" by the service writer/porter/mechanic to verify that your car is performing properly.

That's why all my Audi service takes place in my garage, by someone I can trust.

with my new Audi. Even left with a full tank. Until I see and/or experience for myself, I'm doing business with them.

BTW, I did "shop" around. Jim Ellis won out in the pricing department too.

5 mins after I drop my car off, I see it leaving the parking lot full throttle while someone took it for a joy ride. I wasn't happy. Not sure why they would want to do that in my 2.8, considering they have new S4's on the lot. But since then I have had pretty good service and no complaints.(except for the $95/hr).

I have seen so many complaints on the myself here and @ Marietta especially I would not chance it unless nalley changes there ways.
I can depend on nalley have not seen the amount nor the bad stories involving them IMO

before in service and was not pleased.
Hell of a thing when you have to "beg" for a car when you bring your S4 in
and be told in Marietta that they don't do loaners
As far as I am concerned those 2 guys racing @ 11:30 a/m were just scratching the surface of a huge problem that has always surrounded Jim Ellis Motors.
Like I said I would Get a benz before having to deal with JE srvice dept or really JE @ all if possible.
plus I have no Problems with JE to call about cause I use Nalley.
Just trying to let anyone here who leaves there car @ JE , they better lay down the law about driving there car and hot rodding your property.
Hell give the salesmanger a link to this page I don't care if they see what I say its the truth and alot of others know it to .

She's actually one of the things I miss most about my A4.

Back in 1999 Becky told me my A4's excess wind noise (door/window out of adjustment) was due to the fact that my car was lowered. She was just repeating what a tech told her, of course, but I was no less amused.

Everything is hit or miss.
