con'td from ^

now, please don't mistake my critisisim for flat out bitch'ness. i don't mean it like that at all. what i mean here is this – i've lived in burien for the better part of my life & i support local buisness. i'm scared for burien with the recent demise of all the other dealerships…. & i'm worried for you too. & since you made such a point to say you're NOT closing, i figured you'd be the person to tell that your outward apperance does not match your inside confidence. there needs to be more thought about what you choose to display up front.

…anyways, that's just my opinion.

that may be true.. but we went by burien chevrolet yesterday & even though the new camaro is out.. there was a few used cars up in the front & the graphic painted on the window advertising the camaro was garish… the vibe while driving by felt like a cliche tacky used car dealership. as one of the last dealerships still in burien i would think that you would want to stand tall & proud. i understand that there's always been used cars for sale there too (even when it was glen grant). but the number of used cars up front, out-numbered the new camaros. you could barely see them. all i really remember is a big old white van that looked like it fell out of the early 80's & the garish yellow CAMARO on the window. the lot looked out of sorts & the word on the front windows covers almost the whole window giving it the feeling like it's closed & boarded up.

I just drove by this today. Burien should turn them into indoor basketball courts or handball courts, etc. for the community. Or a YMCA. Seems there is enough good double height space.

I hope your right Bobby. For service of your Nissan, I would recommend Marks Expert Auto Repair on Ambaum. Let's keep the few dollars we have left in Burien.

Burien Chevrolet is NOT closing. Burien Chevrolet is and will continue to be your family owned, community serving dealership. Any posts regarding our closing are inaccurate.

Richard and Keith at Burien Auto Repair are terrific and they have a few old cars themselves. I strongly recommend them.

Burien is becoming a ghost town. Sales tax from auto sales was the biggest revenue generator the city had. When GM closes Burien chevrolet, the last one out turn off the lights. I'm going to walk up 154th, and then back down 152nd, and count the vacant shops. I'm guessing 40 closed up storefronts, not counting tattoo parlors,pawn shops, nail salons and taquerias. Then they want you to buy a $500,000 condo in the middle of the hood.

Are they suggesting a place where loyal customers can continue to get our oil changed?
