Complaint Review: Top Gear Imports LLC New Jersey

Having done many automotive transactions in the past without ever having an issue with a single one it is unfortunate that I have to actually advise someone strongly before purchasing
their next car from Top Gear Imports, LLC #045314 in New Jersey.  I only hope to prevent someone from the potential situation I experienced.  If you don't do the due diligence you could end up disappointed.

Top Gear Imports specializes in Porsches but sells Ferraris, Lamborghinis and other exotics.  During an inspection on an exotic Sean in sales represented the condition of a vehicle to be a certain way and upon my inspection I found the facts to be quite different.

Paint in excellent condition with no issues fact 3
scratches in the upper rear drivers side panel

Small scrape in the drivers side front lower valance only
in the clear shield fact damage into the fiberglass

Clutch has plenty of life left fact connected SD2 to
learn 98% worn only 2% remaining

As I walk around the car there are no issues fact both
driver and passenger side door window molding peeling off

All the rims are perfect fact front drivers side rim
had clear coat peeling off

"Scrapes in front fascia are only in the 3M clear" - fact front fascia had fiberglass damage

Car will be detailed for inspection fact car was filthy
inside and out, passenger door had bolt on floor board that had fallen out,
passenger foot well battery cover laying on the passenger floor with battery
exposed

 
I had a trade in and it was only at the time that I asked them to address these discrepancies did they make a claim that my vehicle needed a $4k repair.  I called a dealership and independent that both confirmed it was at max $1k repair.  I asked Top Gear to produce a written
estimate where they based the $4k repair on, which after months one appeared
with a recent date and not of the time period of the inspection of the vehicles
and when I called the repair shop on the estimate they said they had never seen
the vehicle or diagnosed it.

Aret Yilanjian was more professional than Sean during the
process, but at the end of the day I only wish for people to be honest and do
what they say they are going to do and represent their vehicles as they are so
it saves everyone time and aggravation.   In my opinion and based on my experience its Buyer
Beware and do your homework so you dont end up on the bad end of a deal or a
bad experience when shopping for or buying your next dream car.
