The reason these people have exceptional reviews on their wall is they are exceptional and stand out above the rest - way above. We recently bought a Tahoe from them (we dealt with Kurt) and had a wonderful experience! We called first to make sure the Tahoe was still available and made an appointment with Kurt to come in an test drive it, along with a Toyota Land Cruiser. He was extremely nice, knowledgeable and ho... view morenest. He went over both vehicles in detail. What he didn`t know about the Tahoe, he found out. We test drove both vehicles on our own, without Kurt, and told him we would let him know what we decided on the next day. There was no pressure whatsoever. What a change from Toyota in Bellevue that we had been to five days before and the salesperson called and emailed every single day until we told him to back off! The Tahoe was much less expensive but there was no push to get us into the higher priced vehicle (even though the Tahoe wasn`t in Kurt`s bank of cars. Each salesperson is responsible for a certain number of vehicles and the Tahoe was actually managed by someone else.) When we went in to make the purchase, we met with Kurt again. We had a seven year old boy with us (talk about a short attention span) and Kurt was great with him. Didn`t seem annoyed at all. I`ve already recommended them to two people and will continue to do so. We are 110% satisfied and happy with the experience. Top notch all the way. Don`t walk, run if you`re looking for a "new to you" car. You will not be disappointed.

If you need a car and need someone to trust... Stu is your man. I went through a crazy week trying to find a good deal on Subaru Outback. After some truly horrible experiences at Chuck Olsen Chevrolet, I found Auto Connections. Stu gave me his cell number, and made it easy for me to trust him and let me know exactly what his situation was. There was no checking with a sales manager crap. Stu is a car broker, which... view more means that he is a middle man between a dealership and people that hate dealerships. You might think this sounds expensive and lavish, but it is not. Stu is still cheaper than most car dealerships can even offer. I will never buy a car anywhere else, he even has customers in other areas of the state. Where else can you buy a car where they have thank you letters plastered all over their office?

I had such a great experience purchasing my BMW X3 from Mike at Auto Connections. I had been looking at X3`s for a few weeks on line, trying to find exactly what I wanted in year, color, miles and price. I found it on Auto Connections website. I went in at 11am on a Sunday to see it and after test driving it with Mike and learning about the history of the car, I knew it was the one for me. He did not pressure me at a... view morell- he was honest and kind and just made the whole process so easy. He gave me a great price on my trade in and paid off my loan, found me a fantastic new loan with a low APR so my payments were exactly where I needed them to be and I was out the door in less than an hour. I appreciated this so much as I am a new mom with no extra time- I was dreading buying a new car, but this was truly an enjoyable experience. Thanks Mike!

Looking for a "first" car for my daughter, I scoured the craigslist ads and found way too many "rebuilt title", "selling for a dead relative", "lost the title", or "it was just a minor accident" stories for my taste. I was referred by a friend to Auto Connections in Bellevue, called them up, told them what I was looking for and how much I wanted to spend, and after a... view more few weeks and a few test drives, they found exactly what I was looking for (or should I say what my daughter was looking for!). I have to say that Stu, the owner, made the process relatively painless and I was treat very fairly and with integrity. I was allowed to have the vehicle inspected by my own mechanic and ever though it had a few minor issues, which Stu was more than willing to fix, I have to say I am completely satisfied with my purchase and the overall experience. I do have to admit that I was a bit hesitant after reading a few of the Yelp reviews, but I recommend looking at the "filtered" reviews (a bit of a pain to get to but worth it) and you`ll get a much different sense about these guys. Don`t know why Yelp filters all the good reviews - seems kind of dumb? Thanks again Auto Connections of Bellevue, and if you see a red-headed 17 year old girl running around town in her shinny new red Beetle, give her a wave!

My wife and I live in Missoula, MT and drove to Seattle, WA to pick up a 2006 Volvo S60R - sight unseen. When I arrived in Seattle, I was blown away to find a carpeted showroom with used cars! It seemed to be a top-notch place. Their cars usually have low miles and are in exceptional condition. The dealer had the car I was to buy pulled around front, and I took the car for a test drive. The car was spotless ... view moreand in great condition. This used dealer offers six-month powertrain warranty on their cars. This tells me that they trust they are giving the customer a car they can rely upon. Any vehicle is going to have their fair share of problems. As a part-time mechanic, even I know diagnostics can only tell you about the vehicle`s operation at the moment. Auto Connections East makes sure their cars are in good operating condition, prints a CARFAX report and hopes the customer will receive something they can enjoy. I appreciate the sales team. They are low to perhaps NO pressure when buying. I made them an offer on the car, and Stu (salesperson) was willing to give me no-hassle pricing. The sales process was a breeze. I know good people when I see them. This is a professional business offering top-notch service. Even after the sale they are willing to accomodate me if I have questions. I couldn`t ask for better people in the car sales business and couldn`t ask for cleaner products in the used car sale business. My wife and I will keep this place in mind!

WOW! Just bought my new (used) car from Auto Connections in Bellevue and I have to say that the experience, from beginning to end, was just delightful. Of course I absolutely hate shopping for a car....you know the routine: pressure, lies, deception, all the rest. I`ve been looking for the perfect Honda for a month or so, ever since a drunk driver ruined my perfectly good Accord, and I`ve been really stressing ove... view morer the process. Having to shop on line and visit dealers is a real pain and something I`m just not that comfortable with. But going to Bellevue Auto Connections was the best thing that could happen to me. I found just the right Accord on line, then called and talked with Stu, who said he`s the owner, and to my surprise he answered every question I had and didn`t put any pressure on me at all to come in. He just said to call when I was ready for a test drive and he would make sure the car was available for me when I got there. I made arrangements for a test drive and after seeing the car and all the other beautiful cars they have for sale, I was convinced I was in the right place. Of course I bought the car, got a very fair price and I`m now planning a nice road trip this summer to celebrate my new ride!! Thanks very much to Stu and Auto Connections for the great car, great price and great service. Look forward to sending all my friends and family your way.

100% Class Act! I unfortunately had a problem with a car and once I brought it to the attention of Stu the owner he corrected the problem immediately. He handled the situation with integrity and class as I hoped. I really doubt any of the other small car dealerships I shopped with would have done the same. Speaking of which, in comparison they were polite, friendly and easy to work with. I highly recommend this deale... view morership. The only negative I can think of is parking... but once you find a spot it`s all good!

I`d been searching for a quality used car for a number of weeks and finally came upon what looked to be a great car at a great price offered for sale by Auto Connections in Bellevue. When I arrived, naturally with my defenses up, I was pleasantly surprised at, not only the courteous and respectful manner with which I was greeted, but also at how clean and professional looking the dealership was. That`s a big deal to ... view moreme! I asked to see the car I was interested in, was given lot`s of space and time to view the car, and didn?ˆ™t feel even the slightest bit of pressure from anyone trying to "sell" me anything. All of my questions were answered, I loved how I was able to take the car for a test drive by myself, and I was able to have the car independently inspected without a problem. When I returned from the inspection I sat down with Stu (he?ˆ™s the owner) and after no more than 10 minutes of easy, light negotiations, I purchased the car of my dreams at a very fair price. As a follow-up, a couple of days after I bought the car the check engine light came on. I called Stu and he told me to bring the car in, which I did. He had the car repaired (it was something emissions related?) not only at no cost to me, but he gave me a loaner car to drive for the day!! It`s been a little over a month since I bought the car and I absolutely love it! Auto Connections was very fair and professional and I felt as though I was treated with integrity throughout the entire process. I will definitely refer them to anyone I know who?ˆ™s even remotely considering buying a car.
