Washington state residents, I recently heard that there will be a new Infiniti dealership built in the Fife/Tacoma area, along I-5.

True or false? When will it open? Who's got info?

A lady i work with is married to the manager at the Puyallup Nissan dealer. According to her there is a new Infiniti dealership that will be opening in fife. She only told me this briefly when she saw my car, this is all i have heard though.

Would be nice if Spokane had an Infiniti dealer other than Wendle (swindle) Ford. Oh well, I moved.

Ok, I was in Tacoma last week and I have to say I saw VERY few Infiniti's, maybe another dealer will help things. I'll check with my brother to see if he's heard anything. He lives in Olympia.

Thanks for the input, fellers. :)

Rex, Tacoma will never have a great deal of Infiniti owners in it, unless Infiniti changes is name to Kia. Let the record show that Tacoma is home to the largest volume Kia dealer in the nation. <--not cool. Might as well point out that WA has two cities in the nationwide top ten auto theft list, IIRC.

At the shop I work in, I've seen two pristine Q45's, and a number of really ragged G20 and I30 models. It actually hurts to see such nice cars in bad shape. There are a few standouts, but for the most part, this area doesn't have the class to deserve Infiniti automobiles.

hahah!!! Infiniti in Ta-Compton? LOL!!

Sorry, I try and steer clear of Tacoma at all costs, people that live up here know how ****ed up that area is, just look at the highway interchange, probably has the most accidents a year in that one mile strip of highway, right in front of teh Tacoma Dome :D

although, the city over by the Dome isn't too bad, like by the bus depot and the Spaghetti Factory, Downtown essentially

I'm pretty sure its Fife that stinks... not T-town!..... however, some of those cloudy days cause the stench to kinda hover around the area and its rancid (its getting better though). Anyways, Infiniti would get good visibility along I-5 in Fife. not sure where it is going to go - but since most people in Tacoma are just driving through, this may cause them to swing in for a quick test drive (since they're not used to seeing an Infiniti dealership in the seattle area!).

for now, Infiniti of Kirkland is where they all come from. Its a great dealership - I've never had a problem with them - always get good service...
