Amazing people, full transparency, highest quality vehicles I am a new college graduate and decided to buy myself a car, but had absolutely no experience when it came to car buying. I worked closely with Paul T I am a new college graduate and decided to buy myself a car, but had absolutely no experience when it came to car buying. I worked closely with Paul Tracy and John Canoutas. Both of these gentlemen put everything out on the table to make sure I was well informed before I made my decision. They stressed the importance of transparency when it comes to the work they do which helped build a strong amount of trust with them. They found me a flawless truck at an extremely competitive price and I couldn't be happier. More

Fabulous experience! John Canoutas made our car buying experience an absolute pleasure.

We had intentions of looking at a car quickly, and buying a similiar car in Myrtle Beach. We never made it to Myrtle Beach. John is upfront, honest, and easy to work with. I can’t say I’ve ever had a better buying experience for a big ticket item. Our next car will be bought from John. More

Easiest car-buying experience I ever had. As with most people, I was dreading the whole car-buying process. I had decided to buy a late model car.rather than a new one. Which is much harder th As with most people, I was dreading the whole car-buying process. I had decided to buy a late model car.rather than a new one. Which is much harder than buying a new car. Just finding one was overwhelming to me. I looked online and Auto Wholesale seemed to be a good place to start. When I arrived at AW, I was pleasantly surprised that there was not a group of salesmen waiting to race out and smother me, and pressure me into buying a car. After finding a couple I liked, J went into the office and John asked what I was looking for. He knew right away which one I'd like He brought me the keys and told me to take it out. I was flabbergasted. To make a long story short, besides John being so charming and delightful, there was no middleman, such as a manager or loan officer, to deal with. He did all the work himself and before I could blink an eye, I had a new (to me) car! More

2nd vehicle purchase Recently purchased a Honda CR-V from John Canoutas. This is the 2nd vehicle my wife and I have bought through John. He was recommended by another fr Recently purchased a Honda CR-V from John Canoutas. This is the 2nd vehicle my wife and I have bought through John. He was recommended by another friend who has purchased multiple vehicles from John as well. Obviously we wouldn't be coming back if we didn't feel that we were treated fairly. Overall it was a good experience. Thanks John. More
