Default Best & Worse Vendor Websites????

This is highly subjective, but it should be interesting.
Best = http://www.scion.com/ Scion

Worse= http://www.aempower.com/ AEM

huh?


the aftermarket aem intake makes more power than the dealer option intake. it's of a different design.

and the street price is much cheaper than msrp of 305. on the street it's about 195-220

When talking about the quality of the site one isn't talking about the quality of the products or service, just the value/usability/look/feel of the website itself.

One vendor with a high quality site is tirerack.com.

Lots of solid information, pages that work well, excellent images and descriptions of products, accuracy.

(I can't really throw in the names of 'bad' sites - those with javascript that doesn't work, pop-ups, poor graphics, inaccuracies, lousy product product descriptions, etc., because when I run into those I automatically scratch them off my list and ignore/forget them. If a biz can't even do something as simple as build a usable web site, I really don't need to deal with them. Think of me as a sale lost to incompetence...)
