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 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. More
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 stron 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 More
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 do 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.

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, qu 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. More
Barry Bixby is one of the nicest, most knowledgeable, and most reasonable salespeople I have interacted with. He was very patient with my busy schedule and allowed me to test drive the car I was interested i most reasonable salespeople I have interacted with. He was very patient with my busy schedule and allowed me to test drive the car I was interested in whenever I liked, and he gave me a good deal, too with hardly any haggling at all. When I took delivery of my vehicle and the check engine light came on soon after, Barry got it fixed for me right away, at not charge to me. He is very personable and appreciative of people who have an interest in cars, new or old. I would definitely recommend Barry to any prospective customer. More
Exceptionally knowledgable I have purchased vehicles from Barry Bixby for myself and my family for over 10 years now. I am a big fan of German automobiles, particularly Audi and I have purchased vehicles from Barry Bixby for myself and my family for over 10 years now. I am a big fan of German automobiles, particularly Audi and BMW, but I know there are 'quirks' to certain models and years, so having knowledgable guidance when purchasing one of these cars is a must. Barry is a virtual human encyclopedia when it comes to anything automotive, particularly European and luxury brands. He hasn't just sold me cars, he's taught me everything I need to know about owning and maintaining them. I greatly appreciate being able to talk with Barry about the pros and cons of any purchase I am considering. I feel I have gotten an exceptional value in each of the cars I've purchased from Barry, most recently a 2008 Audi A4 cabriolet. I highly recommend Barry's services. More
I went to try an purchase and nice bmw with barry and it was the worst experience I've ever had with a car dealer. I got all the paper work dont like he asked for, and suv had to be serviced. So I gave him was the worst experience I've ever had with a car dealer. I got all the paper work dont like he asked for, and suv had to be serviced. So I gave him some time to do that, couple days later he said car is not done yet. I called him every day for almost 2 weeks and he never picked up the phone, so unprofessional. It friday came an he told me car has a oil leak and it would cost him $1500 to fix. He was so cheap he didn't want to fix it.he should have told me in 2 days in stead of 2 weeks. I would have gotten a car already. Most unprofessional dealer ever. Dont recommend More
