best dealer/salesman in calgary?

hi guys, i've finally abandoned the idea of hunting down a used RX8 and try to go for a new one (since they should be trying to clear out the 05s by now anyway), is there any dealer you guys recommand in Calgary or any particular salesman that might provide a good deal without all the non-sense BS.

Thanks in advance

In my experience, I like Ken Ngan from NorthHill. Other fellows are going to say that the Kramer and Sunridge guys were great but to me they were a bit snooty. At NorthHill there was little BS and I think that another member here also dealt with Ken (was it you SlowLude?). Ken's the assistant manager so he's a little bit more flexible in giving you a good deal.

Ed at Northhill was great to deal with. No BS. At one point I was dealing with a good salesman at Kramer, but their sales manager (Bobby) was an a......e, so I walked away and went to NorthHill.

I'm not a big fan of Ken at Northhill... he just let me and my family stand outside of his office while we negotiated a price and said "See what happens when you didn't buy it from the last time? All sold out!"

this is Mrs. Buddman. as I did most for the footwork and test drives (different types of sports cars) before my husband had the time and drove the cars that made it past my screening.
Boy, can I tell you stories about car salesmen when it comes to the female perspective. That's why I liked Brad and Sunridge Mazda. He spoke to me with respect and intelligence. Not condensending.
Not like the majority of salesmen out there. So one hint to a car salesman, if a woman asks a question, don't reply to the man... look her in the eyes and answer... There are many who have lost a sale due to that one fact.

MY advice in dealing with any car dealership is to try and deal with the fleet sales manager. They are more about moving cars rather than grinding you.

Yeah, don't get me started about him either. But I didn't end up buying from him (due entirely to his conduct), so he was out the money.

Good Dealer in Calgary

North Hill treated me well. Brad and Ed in sales and Anthony and Riaz in leasing were great. Good deal, good people.

Another one for North Hill here, Riaz is the Sales Manager and a friend . . . a good guy. Ed has sold me two cars in the last 3 years and is the "nicest" salesperson you will meet. Definitely worth a visit. Cheers.
