If you have any genuine care for a car, you will never again be so cheap.

(you should be glad you asked before you made a HUGE mistake)
ok here's my Macco experience...
i was looking for a new car in the paper, and i saw this car. so i called the number and it was Macco. I was like uh ok...why are you guy selling this car? They said that one of their customers dropped it off there to get painted and never came back for it. It had been at their building for 6 months, and anyone who goes there must pick up their car the day it's ready, or pay the parking fee. After 4 months they have complete ownership of the car. so i bought the car, and about a year later, the paint did not hold up very well at all. chipping, fading, you name it...their price represents their quality...dont let their cheap prices fool you! they are shitty! everyone i know thinks the same. Ive never seen any kind of "nice" car go to Macco (b/c they have decency for their car)If you want to pay, then expect another paint job in a year, or maybe less than that
Macco- cheap price for a shitty outcome.

Yeah you'll get a decent paint job from there but it will only last for a year then it will fade, weather crack and if you need any body work done the lines will, I repeat WILL be off.....So youd pretty much be waistin your money.....I'm not tryn to boast but i do body and paint work and I've fixed zillions of cars that came from macco.....Dont go as Skywalker said,
