Car Dealers in Portland, OR

We had a great experience at Powell Motors on NE Grand. Super friendly and honest. Encouraged us to have our mechanic check it over when other dealers tried to talk us out of having our mechanic look at it.

yeah, buy privately. You'll save maybe fifteen percent. You know that dealerships tack on percentage points to the loans you get (typically 1.5 percent). Get approved for a loan from your bank or credit union (if you need one) and buy a car privately.

Harold's Auto Service at SE 7th Ave and SE Grant St. I am the 3rd generation in my family to take every car I have owned there. I have nothing but FANTASTIC things to say about this place...honest; amazing customer service; customer treated like family; fair prices; no unnecessary shit done to my car; time taken to explain the process, problem, and solution of my car woes. The owner, who had been running the business since 1961, recently passed away, I believe his obit does him and his business justice (http://obits.oregonlive.com/obituaries/oregon/obituary.aspx?n=harold-j-dick&pid=137846297). I have no doubt that Harold's Auto Service will continue to be great even without Harold, who we will all miss dearly. However, I'm fairly sure they will no longer give out the gold 70s mustang as a loner car (yes I had the pleasure to drive it multiple times when my car was in the shop. It made car problems worth it).

I've had good experiences with Broadway Toyota and if you have a Toyota and are looking for an indie repair shop try these guys: http://www.integrityautoinc.com/

Rob Porter at Nissan of Portland(122 and Halsey in SE) sold me a new car 7 months ago and was honest, straight and truly seemed to take his time in helping me. I got my new car at an honest price and without any real feeling of pressure. I test drove at least a dozen cars before I decided on the one I bought and Rob had all the details of each like he knew the cars personally.

If you want a vw or an audi go see these guys. http://www.dangeloautosales.com/ Bought an 05 golf from these guys. No sweat, no pressure, nice guys and a family business.

Landmark Ford is a good dealership. My dad has been a car salesman for 25 years and he said that this is the best one with the fairest prices that he has worked for.

Which one did you deal with, although I've got a suspicion I know already... And if you are a member of Costco, I highly recommend their car buying program. If you're not, become a member, and then use their car buying program.

I too was disgusted with the Portland area Toyota dealerships and ended up having a great experience with Lithia Toyota in Springfield. Plus about $3 k lower Here is who I worked with: Keith Moreck Internet Sales Manager Lithia Toyota of Springfield

One thing I learned is to not expect too much haggling with the sticker price. Dealerships are usually big enough and busy enough not to move too much on that. My advice is MAKE them find a lender ( if you don't have cash in hand) that will give you a good interest rate. 8% too high? (Nod yes) tell them you won't be able to do that. 5% still too high? (Keep nodding) I was able to get down to 2 1/5% percent like that on a 17,000 loan for 48 months. But, after all this b.s.ing I was sitting on a $3000 down payment and AT THE VERY END asked how that would help. It knocked the price down to $15000 and lowered my interest rate a whole point to 1.5% for 48months which is crazy good. I made two monthly payments to the lender which was Oregon community Credit Union before having my credit union (onpoint) take over the loan, stretching out the payments to 60 months, that lowered my monthly payment. Be aware lenders require full coverage insurence. And remember anydown payment is your ave in the hole. When they ask if you have one, tell them no until you reach an agreement you are happy with. And you are looking for an over all deal not cheap monthly payments that are incuring stupid amount of interest over the length of you loan.

New as in brand new? That's often considered to be a bad idea by finance types FYI. edit: downvote all you want but a 2016 4Runner lost 14% of it's value in the first year ([compare low blue book to MSRP](https://www.kbb.com/toyota/4 runner/2016/sr5-sport-utility-4 d/?vehicleid=412728&intent=buy-used&mileage=23682&condition=good&pricetype=retail&category=suv)). After that it lost less than 2%. Much of a car's depreciation happens in that first year.

Wilsonville Toyota is where the Toyota mechanics I know go to buy cars.

Go through Costco car buying program or TrueCar

Have you tried just sticking with internet/email? Get as much lined up over email as possible before you actually have to talk or meet with a salesperson. With so many Toyota dealers in the area I imagine you should find one that is willing to work this way. I have bought a car from Beaverton Toyota. It was your typical semi-lame car buying experience, but I got what I wanted at a decent price. Wilsonville Toyota seems decent from what I've heard. Of course, if you're looking at a Tacoma you should do yourself a favor and look at a Chevrolet Colorado. I'm by no means an "American only" car guy (quite the contrary) but the Colorado seems superior to the Tacoma in just about every way (other than reliability, perhaps). The current Tacos are pretty dated and needing a refresh.

I've been happy with Royal Moore's service department. Don't know about their sales. (They're out in Hillsboro.)

Lithia or Ron Tonkin would be my two recs.

Here's my thread from 3 months ago: https://www.reddit.com/r/askportland/comments/62p3zd/whats_the_best_toyota_dealership_in_the_metro_area/ I ended up buying a new Highlander from Gladstone Toyota and was happy with the price i negotiated (about 4K below sticker). Literally every car dealership is sleazy and you'll face different flavors of the same bullshit everywhere. My advice: * Know ahead of time exactly what vehicle you want. Go on test drives, research options, colors, accessories, etc. * Figure out how much the vehicle you want is selling for. Truecar.com and carguru.com were helpful in this regard, but don't inquire about local stock because you'll be flooded with calls from several dealerships in minutes. * Figure out your budget. When you negotiate, the dealer will ask you what you want your monthly payment to be. Dont let them do this! You want to focus on vehicle price not payment. * Get preapproved for a loan by a local credit union. Rivermark came a good 2 - 4% under other loan offers I was seeing. * Be prepared to spend a few days on the negotiation and to walk away if you don't like deal. Resist the urge to say yes just because it's a sweet car that you like. * Politely decline every dealer addon. The sales team will put on a show about the importance of nitrogen filled tires and scratch guard protection coatings and extended warranties, but these are just grimy tactics to get more money from you after you've already carefully negotiated the vehicle price. Toyota's don't need extended warranties. They are bulletproof. Good luck out there!

Wilsonville Toyota are awesome. Prices are posted and their "no bull" approach works well.

Figure out the car you want and the packages you want and call them all. I bought a Prius in 2009 and called everyone for a quote. Every dealer was super chill about it but Broadway. They were the biggest a-holes I've ever run into. The guy said I "didn't understand the car purchasing experience" and that insinuated that maybe I couldn't afford the car. Ended up with Gladstone and saved a few thousand over Broadway anyway.
