Quality hand picked car, great value

We had nothing short of an excellent experience buying a car from these guys.  They made it easy as it could be and we feel like we got a quality hand picked car that was a great value.  I would recommend this business to anyone!  Elizabeth Schier, Google review

Process was easy and fast

First off let me just say everyone who works here was great but I personally work with Grey he was awesome straight forward and made my process easy and fast when purchasing a car from here thank you so much I will definitely be back in the future. Schwanda Spencer, Google review

Responsive and knowledgeable

We had a fantastic experience working with Grey Stabler at Atlantic Auto Exchange.  We purchased a used vehicle sight unseen from out of state and the process could not have been smoother from start to finish.  Grey was responsive, knowledgeable and kept us updated every step of the way.  Thank you for a great car buying experience!  Jason Mano, Google review

Easy to work with

What a great experience! Grey was so easy to work with; we went to see a car and loved it immediately.  Grey took time to talk to us about the car and also about things in general.  He didn't rush us and before you know it, we sat down, did some paperwork, and I drove off with my dream car.  Chip stopped in to meet us as well.  We are very happy with our new car and would recommmend them to anyone!  Thanks Grey!  Bernice Marrone, Google review

Niche dealership

Purchased a mint 2006 Ford Mustang GT and Robert was great to work with!  You understand quickly, this is a niche dealership dealing with quality sports cars.  Highly recommend! Timothy O Day, Google Review

Serious Car Guys

Chip and his staff at Atlantic Auto Exchange are Top Tier.  They also have some super cool rare inventory; I mean this team is stacked with some serious car guys.  I recently purchased a really neat series 1 1979 Datsun 240Z.  I couldn't be more pleased with the entire experience.  From the first call I got a solid feeling for the level of service they provide.  I didn't hesitate to take some time off from work round up my father and take a guy's trip to go buy a cool vintage race car.  I'm tough to deal with being in the business myself and having never done business with AAE prior my guard was up, they worked with me, and I found them to be extremely trustworthy.  I wouldn't hesitate one bit to purchase from them again or send family and clients there.  Absolutely perfect service 10 out of 10 from me!  Micah Pergram, Google review, April 13, 2023

Amazing conversation, professional, friendly

from Al Lambertis, Google review

Best car buying experience ever! Had the pleasure of doing business with the owner himself. I’ve purchased a car every 12-18 months for the past 20 years. Most of my cars have been purchased from franchise and/or larger dealerships. Purchasing from Chip felt like doing business with a trusted friend that was a car enthusiast like myself, rather than a dealer. Great cars, amazing conversation, professional, and friendly. Highly recommend!!

Professional and enjoyable, no pressure

from Rick Morton, Google review

Drove from our home in Princeton, Wv to Atlantic Auto to buy a beautiful 2001 C5 Corvette. What a fantastic experience. Gray and Chip were very easy and friendly to deal with. Made things professional and enjoyable. So not only did we leave with a gorgeous car that we both love, but I'm sure we made a couple more friends. There was no pressure to buy anything, they didn't try to get us to buy something more expensive, they just made us feel at home and answered any questions about the car we bought. This was truly a very very good experience. Thanks Gray and Chip, I'm sure we will be back.

Great experience, highly recommend

from Bobby Lee, Google review

I recently purchased a vehicle from Atlantic Auto. It was a great experience. Grey and Chip communicated well and I would be happy to purchase from them again. I came in from out of state and Grey even picked me up from the airport! Great experience and would highly recommend to anyone.

Pleasure to deal with

from Scott Keller, Google review

One of the smoothest and quickest buying experience I have encountered. Robert was a pleasure to deal with and took care of my son and I in a way that demonstrated the way a sales transaction should be. 13 Audi A7 runs and looks like new. Thanks again Robert.

Didn't try to fast talk me

from Laura Fuller, Google review

We needed to replace a vehicle for our daughter. Browsing Auto Trader led me to Atlantic Auto Exchange. I sent a few emails and my questions were answered satisfactorily so I went one day after work. Drove the vehicle and it was a dream. Very well kept, all of my concerns were resolved easily. Came back the next day with my husband to secure the purchase.

Robert was a perfect gentleman and honest from the start. He didn't try to fast talk me into making a decision before I was ready. We will be back to at lease look at the options at Atlantic when buying again.

Thanks, Robert!

Process really smooth and easy

from Craig Tody, Google review

I recently purchased a 1991 Corvette from Atlantic Auto Exchange. I love the car. Even though I was purchasing it long distance, Robert made the process really smooth and easy. It was probably the best experience buying a car that I have had. I would not hesitate to buy another car from them.

Great service, fantastic cars

from Michael Wergin, Google review

I have purchased several cars in my lifetime including from my own family’s dealership and have never had an experience quite like Atlantic Auto Exchange.

Robert made me feel welcomed the moment I arrived and even rearranged his schedule to accommodate mine. Chip was super knowledgeable and extremely courteous in every interaction I had with him. Chip’s son Grey delivered my car and was equally knowledgeable and super professional.

What put this place over the top for me though, was that everyone who works there loves the cars. I really enjoyed talking shop with each one of the guys and felt like I was buying a car from a buddy, not a dealer. Couple this with great service and fantastic cars, this place is a home run.

Exactly as described, honestly better in person

from Google review user name 800runna1

Chip and his son Grey, are absolutely amazing to deal with! I bought a F80 M3 Competition package from their business and had it shipped to CA.

I spoke with both of them about the car and they were incredibly knowledgable and helpful for me. This was my first time buying an out of state vehicle and they made it so smooth. I really wasn't sure what I was getting into and they explained everything clearly. They were incredibly honest, and also re assured me after i had purchased the car (keep in mind i bought it sight unseen!)

When the car arrived it was EXACTLY as they described and showed. Honestly even BETTER in person. I would buy from their team again any time and i recommend any enthusiast try and work with these guys. Better than any of the CA dealers I wasted my time with!! Cheers to Atlantic Auto Exchange, SIX stars!!

Hello Chip,
I just wanted to write in and tell you how much I am enjoying my 2002 Lincoln Town Car! Grey helped me that day. He took me on a test drive and processed all my paperwork in a matter of minutes for my trade-in. I’ve always wanted one of these, and it drives like a dream! I am thankful to Grey and your sales team for helping me acquire this Town Car! I think it’s beautiful, and not a minutes trouble at all, very reliable! Please post this testimonial; I want everyone to know how pleased I am with my purchase at Atlantic Auto Exchange! If I ever want to get another car, I will definitely shop here first, and will probably have no need to go anywhere else depending on inventory. Thanks again Grey and Chip and the team!!!!

Your sincere thanks is appreciated!  I am so glad I could help.

I have never had such a simplified experience as I had with Chip and Atlantic Auto Exchange.  I was dreading having to look for a car and within 24 hours Chip found exactly what I wanted and I was driving my "new" car 6 days later.  The whole process was seamless.  Thank you Atlantic Auto Exchange for making what seemed like an overwhelming task so easy.  I love recommending you.

Google review, 5 star, 10/31/18

Chip was referred by a very good friend who has known him for over 20 years.  My husband had a 2004 Lexus GX 470 for 14 years and 232K miles.  He wanted the same car only newer.  We went to look at new ones and had sticker shock.  I called Chip on a Saturday and told him exactly what I wanted, a 2017 GX 470 or newer with low mileage and in excellent shape.  Within 48 hours he found the car and had it shipped to his site.  Based on the referral I trusted that I was getting an impeccable car for a good price.  When we came to purchase it, all the paperwork was completed, we test drove the car, went over the new technology and drove away.  When Chip says he owns and operates a customer oriented business he definitely walks the talk.  We will go back to help our newly-graduated kids buy a car from him once they get a job!  Highly recommend Atlantic Auto Exchange if you don't want a brand new car.

Good afternoon Chip. Just a quick note to let you know I am really enjoying the RX I picked up last week. And for now at least, I’m still the primary driver!  I saw your thank you note on the website and it’s much appreciated. 25 years huh? And so many vehicles I have lost count. But the experience has never changed and that’s why I will keep coming back. Take care and don’t ever change. I’ll see you next time!

I just wanted to say thank you to Robert and his Team for making the deal go through for a much lower price and man I could not be happier. Robert described this car perfectly and it is stunning. Thanks again for making my dream come true.

Chip:

I remember your words by phone when I purchased my Pebble Beach Edition Lexus SC430, sight unseen, last week. “When it arrives”, you said, “I want you to tell me it is better than than described, and better than the photos”. I agreed, but with a moderate level of hesitancy. Well Chip, the car is all that and more. It is virtually a new Lexus at less than a third the original price, thanks to your gracious acceptance of my offer. 

 

Thank you for making a dream come true for my daughter, and for restoring her father’s faith in the fact that there really are some dealers who surpass our expectations, and care about their customers after a sale as much as they did before one. Best interstate car purchase experience ever. Thanks, Chip. We won’t forget you!

Absolutely enjoyed our experience

November 1, 2016

Dear Mr. Lewis,

My wife and I were recently in and purchased a 2010 Honda Accord from you.  We would like to extend our thanks and gratitude to you and the AAE staff for such an enjoyable experience.  Everything from start to finish could not have been smoother. Car shopping is something people usually dread doing, but we absolutely enjoyed our experience and will certainly recommend you to anyone we know who is in search of not just a great car, but a personable experience to go with it.  We appreciated you taking the time to get to know us a little, and appreciated your knowledge and professionalism.  We had no reservations about doing business with you.  Thank you also for helping me trade in my 2004 BMW 325xi. Going through a trade in and a purchase together can be so stressful sometimes, but you guys just made everything so easy and enjoyable.  We can not thank you enough.  We hope you guys have a great Thanksgiving and Christmas coming up!

Sincerely,
Tim and Karis Coyle

PS. -- I saw that Clemson had another close one against Florida St. over the weekend...whew!  Glad they were able to pull out another win for you!

Thank you for helping through my most recent car "crisis". It's hard to believe 
I bought my first vehicle from Atlantic 19 years ago! And today I picked up my 
13th....14th.....15th?? I honestly do do not know. But I do know one thing. As 
long as you are there, and when I need a vehicle, I'll be calling on you for 
assistance.  I can't even imagine doing business with anyone else. You always 
come through for us!!

So take care and don't ever change.

The 98 Atlanta Blue 2.8 Roadster you sold me is still the cleanest and best running (nickle will stand on valve cover) Z3 around. Thanks for selling me a well maintained vehicle that you guys did a superb job of perfecting before I took ownership!

Rodney Wright

Having just purchased my second car from you, I’m very happy with the purchase process and the car. At 52 and still a kid at heart, the ’07 Mustang GT is an absolute blast to drive. Your ability to find great cars is an art. You found the car I wanted with the desired options and low mileage. After both of my sons complete college, we’ll be stopping by again to find a nice car for them (after they get a job!) Great doing business with you and as Arnold sez, “I’ll be back”.

Rodney Wright,

Just wanted to say how delighted I am with both the car and how easy you make the buying process. You found exactly what I wanted, within my budget, and quickly too. This really is the perfect way to buy a car.

Thanks!

Marta Partridge

Every car I have purchased from you for me and my boys has been a gem! First one (way back in '89!) went 210,000 miles, my last one went 226,000 miles! Since I am an itinerant teacher, my car is essential to my work - thanks for providing me with safe, dependable, comfortable, and economical cars every time, Holland!

Thank you,

Ron Smith

I have to say without any doubt, my car buying experience with Atlantic Auto Exchange was the BEST I have had in the 20 plus years I've been buying cars. Your intimate knowledge of the BMW, it's operation, features, and quirks, was very helpful in making a buying decision. Your specific knowledge about the history of the car I was looking at, was unusual for a car on a dealer lot, and really helped my confidence in the purchase. It also is a pleasure to deal with courteous and polite people, and simple no nonsense pricing. I will not hesitate to send any of my friends to look at the interesting cars on your lot.

Best regards and continued success,

Ron Smith

Alan Villanova

Thanks for the new 330I! I love the car. This is my 2nd BMW I have purchased form you. My first one a 1994 525I had over 250K on the odometer when I retired it. I look forward to driving this one for 250K as well. As always you provide a great selection of low mileage cars in nice condition and make the buying process easy and quick! I'll tell all my friends about Atlantic Auto Exchange!

Thanks,

Carolyn K. Kroll

You did it again! This is my fifth car purchased from you since 1994. I love my 2003 Lexus RX 300 picked up this week; and my son, Tim, loves the 2000 SAAB 9-5 SE he acquired as a hand-me-down when I got my recent Lexus. Everyone is happy. You always find me the best pre-owned cars - very clean inside and out, well-maintained, and priced fairly. An added bonus is the way you handle all the paperwork - from the loan papers, to the DMV papers, to even notarizing signatures so my son could get title to the Saab. What a deal! My sincere thanks for being so darn pleasant to do business with!

Tom and Kathy Morris

We've made friends with our 330i ZHP - what a grin-producer! The process of buying the car couldn't have been easier - it was a nice visit with an old friend instead of a pressured commercial transaction. And the car itself is immaculate. We are already bragging on you to friends and neighbors. Many thanks!

It's not about the car

I bought my 7th car from AAE about a year ago, a wonderful 2004 BMW 325i. A month or so ago several warning indicators began to show on the dashboard - 2 about taillights, one about windshield washing fluid and one about an engine check. I took the car to the usual place I get it worked on and was told that the taillight work would cost about $450, the engine check repair would cost about $650 and the windshield washing issue would have to be diagnosed before it could be estimated. It's a BMW and repairs are sometimes pricey. Even so, I was a little taken aback. So I dropped by AAE and talked with Holland and Randy one afternoon. We talked through the problems and Holland and Randy trained me on how to replace the taillight assemblies, to replace the pump on the windshield washing system and what to suggest to the repair shop regarding the engine check issue. I'm not mechanically inclined and was a little skeptical at their confidence in my ability to remedy these items. However, I bought the necessary parts from the BMW dealer for $135, replaced the items I could and had the other repair work done for $58. So my visit with Holland and Randy saved me somewhere about $1,000. Yet another reason to keep going back to AAE.

You guys are the best. I think when I die, I'm going to have Julia buy a car from you and be buried in it. I think it will be cheaper and the quality will be guaranteed.

Hey Guys!

Just wanted to drop a quick line and say thanks again for the Boxster! Becky and I are LOVING the car. Hard to complain about the convertible weather this spring. I think this one is going to be a keeper for many many years to come!

Thanks again,

Once again, you guys met my every expectation and found me the 6th car that I have purchased from Atlantic Auto since 1994! My daughter just loves her 2003 Subaru Forester!

Clay and Jilaine

Just letting you guys know I'm still loving the blue Corvette I purchased from you last summer. I can't wait for the next toy I get from your dealership. Best cars I have ever owned, as a matter of fact the BMW is being sent to the west coast for my daughter to drive.

Again thanks for everything!

Clay and Jilaine

Scott Carle

I have bought my cars from you since 1991 and have always recieved the best service. My cars have lasted for many years and many miles. I am enjoying my latest, the Toyota Matrix. I have made my first road trip in it and it is getting awesome gas mileage. It is always nice to do business with a friend.

Sincerely,
