I can 100% honestly say that you will not only save a minimum of $3,500 by buying through Vipre Automotive. but the expertise and experience of the "dynamic duo" of Shamit and Horace is priceless.
Everyone knows that the 2nd largest purchase, next to a home, is buying a car. The biggest difference is your home is an investment and your car is NOT.
Why someone would buy a new car is beyond me. The moment you drive it off the lot, you are now driving a USED car. As soon as it's titled, you just lost $8k+ depending on the type and price of the vehicle.
As for the boys at Vipre Automotive, I have personally bought vehicles from them since 1997. Since then, my family and friends have also had confidence in buying their vehicle through them.
Back in the day, I had the opportunity to experience the mad house of the weekly Manheim Auction. That was many years ago when you could assist in transport and witness 1,000s of cars being sold every Friday all year long.
It's interesting that you see every dealer in the Mid Atlantic and the Northeast bidding against each other to jack up prices and make a tremendous profit on us, the consumer. They spend a few mins running around with a clip board knowing no matter what they buy, they will sell and make a profit.
The significant difference is the BIG dealers Used Car Sales guys aren't dissecting cars nor have the experience of Vipre and they lack the knowledge that Shamit and Horace have. i would bet most of these used car sales managers DO NOT have 30+ years experience nor have a college degrees in Engineering. How about an MBA and prior military experience working on Military Aircraft.
With over 60+ years combined experience in the auto industry, including mechanical repair and body work, nothing is slipping by these guys. They actually HAND PICK your vehicle and YOU will never over pay as they pass on more cars that the other dealers. They know what their customers budget is and will not out their reputation on the line for anyone. are gibvling up because they know the avg and majoriety of people.
Seems some folks don't even know dealerships make all their money on Used Cars and Service. So you will always pay a minimum of $3-8,000 over the "Black Book aka Trade In Value" for a car they buy.
Dealerships will throw warranty's at you and make you think you are getting a better value but the fact is because Vipre only buys 2-3 yr old cars, your still covered on the "Bumper to Bumper" Warranty. That said, brakes, tires, etc arent even covered in a Warranty but Vipre I believe still gives a 90 day warranty on everything.
When they get the car back prior to inspection amd getting tags on your "new" car, they've already inspected everything and will install new brakes, new oil change, etc and you dont pay a dollar more.
The pics attached are our "new" car and its nicer than we expected. It's important to know it can take one week or several because they aren't going to pulll the trigger unless they are 100% sure it's in amazing condition, one owner, clean car fax and have personally inspected the car before it goes on the auction block. (They've pointed out body work that's not been reported on a CarFax) They also won't over pay so it may take a few weeks and the Lexus we just bought took only 2 weeks. We got everything we wanted including color, fully loaded, luxury package and the only thing we changed our mind in was the interior color. The wife wanted Tan and I wanted low miles and in perfect condition. And the black looks amazing so no regrets.
They are always looking for new customers but they aren't desperate for business.
WE PAID Vipre A $1,000 fee while the dealer wanted $4,500.
Great job guys!! read more
