This is an Amazon. Volvo Amazon, the only real Amazon car!

You guys buying parts on Amazon, be careful. Lots of counterfeit parts on there. I  looked at at least 4 pages of Ford Dc511 coils. None of them satisfied the tells between a real Motorcraft coil and a fake. How did I know? I had a real one, from the dealer in my hand. The ones I was looking at on Amazon weren't.  I ended up getting 7 real ones off of Ebay.  Cheaper, to boot.

I'm not a fan of amazon and buy from them more than I care to admit.  But if amazon can give me an all-in price online and an easy transaction at the dealer, I'm in.  My bet is that there's still a finance office to joust with at the end of the deal, but we'll see.

A thought: If/when Carvana goes under, Amazon should totally buy up all the Carvana car carriers so it can deliver the cars.

I did a thread a year ago suggesting Carvana might be going out of business but it looks pretty good........

 

+400% YTD.  Yeah.  I'd say that's a bit more than pretty good.

I had a lot of trouble finding a manual transmission Elantra N back in May when I bought mine. I was curious if Amazon would have made this hunt easier. It returned 0 results and wouldn't let me expand the search radius beyond 75 miles, so no, it would not have helped me find the car I wanted (and eventually purchased). As far as I'm concerned it should let you serach the whole nation if you want to.
