What Others Say

Simply a 100% perfect buying experience. First off, if you’re reading this, you’ve already taken the taken the most important step toward finding the right vehicle: you’ve found Barry Bixby’s cars. Next, even if your dream car isn’t currently in his listings, talk to him. Barry Bixby vehicles are very carefully chosen by a very knowledgeable guy, such that the vehicles he sells reflect his renown high standards. If he doesn’t have your dream car, go see a few of his offerings. You’ll be sold on working with Barry. I couldn’t have been more impressed, and I work in the auto industry. Roughly 2 years ago, I bought from Barry an Audi A8L; it was in mint condition then and remains so today. I found other vehicles in similarly beautiful condition as what I chose. I’ll be buying my next car from Barry,.

The entire purchase experience -- from initial contact through final sale and car pickup -- was straightforward and easy.. By choice, Barry Bixby has a limited inventory, but this was good for me since I generally knew what I wanted and he had the make and model available. Barry is seasoned, personable, and knowledgeable, and he knows that customers want honest information and a trust-based relationship. His is a solo proprietorship -- but he has the expertise and follow-through to pull it off. And there is no pressure!! After he responded to my initial email inquiry, I test drove the car, then went back a few days later to have a inspection done by a nearby mechanic. of my choice. There were no serious issues, and I was happy to make a full payment that day. Barry took care of getting the required state registration completed and I went down one last time to pick up the car. It could not have been easier. In short, this was my best ever car buying experience.

Barry went far above any normal level of professionalism and helpfulness, bailing me out in a complicated circumstance. Brilliant, Old School, responsiveness and responsibility. I wish to state this strongly because earlier I had written snarky, snippety review when he had not gotten back to me, which was actually due to an illness. I needed a car for ski season. I am living in South America and found exactly what I needed (E320 4matic wagon) online. I paid for it and Barry stored it (FOC) for a couple months. He suggested how to get it registered, insured etc and put my new license plates on the car (FOC). He offered to drive and deliver it (also FOC) to Logan Airport on the day of my arrival. Missed / delayed flights meant that Barry got to spend the entire day waiting in Boston….. Arriving late in the day, (24 hours of travel) he was standing at the curb. All ready, all done, all perfect. We took him to the Train Station and drove 5 hours North. The car is exactly as described, just great – in the next 15 days has done some 1400 trouble free miles in the Maine Northwoods midwinter. There are lots of things that could have gone wrong: buying a car sight unseen, storing it in another country, getting the paperwork done before my arrival, getting in 8 hours late at an unknown airport, using an unknown car in winter weather. All perfectly smoothly. Thanks Barry. C. Scott Jones

Barry is a nice friendly guy who works out of his house. That is the only positive thing I can say. I purchased car from him, he told us it was recently service by Viti and is a great car. Over $3,000 dollars in repairs 2-3,000 miles in . . . no response from Barry asking for assistance. Approximately 5,000 miles into the vehicle now need a new motor . . . will cost over $7,400. Still awaiting response from Barry. I understand when you buy a used vehicle you take the risk, but in my opinion a good dealer works with their clients should there be issues, Barry stops service once the car is sold. Buyer beware.

I highly recommend Barry,they was very proficional,friendly,and they gave a great deal,was the only deal i return home happy.Im grateful.

Barry Bixby puts the person in sales person. Never trying to sell you something, only trying to find the right fit for you. He is extremely knowledgeable of foreign and domestic vehicles, history, quirks, maintenance requirements, etc. I had been looking for a particular type of car for a couple of years and never had much luck with dealerships and car "lots". I'd find one on-line only to find out it had been sold weeks ago and they just leave the attractive cars on-line to draw attention. Barry's personal attention and knowledge make the experience and task so much more easy and enjoyable. I highly recommend Barry's services.
