Many dealers say they sell for wholesale, but now you've found the one dealer that actually does. Over twenty years ago, we started our company, selling to licensed car dealers only. After selling over 40,000 vehicles, we opened our doors to the public, and as they say, "the rest is history." Don't take our word for it. Click up top and check out our vehicle listings. See for yourself why if you're looking for a great used car at a phenomenal price, there's no need to look any further.

Mike & Everyone at Automotive Avenues, My Mike & Everyone at Automotive Avenues, My name is Josh Plummer out of Louisville, KY. A few months ago I purchased a 2008 Toyota Highlander Mike & Everyone at Automotive Avenues, My name is Josh Plummer out of Louisville, KY. A few months ago I purchased a 2008 Toyota Highlander Hybrid. I had never bought anything more than a watch or a pair of shoes online but came across a deal that was borderline to good to be true. Against my better judgment I put a down payment ($300 or so) on the 2008 Hybrid, being that I never laid my eyes on the car and never drove it. I was in for a bit of a roller coaster ride for the next several weeks. The first hiccup was my 3rd party local financing didn’t pan out and it would take almost 2 weeks to solidify but your people at Automotive Avenues told me to rest assured that that the quality of the car and their word were golden and that they wouldn’t sell it to the next probably easier customer. The next Hiccup was having the car delivered to me, which being in the transportation industry I understand that juggling a dispatcher and a driver as well as a few extra stops on the way would only take more time. The final hiccup came with getting the title transferred from NJ to KY and as you can imagine it did not go swimmingly after 4 different visits to the DMV and needing several documents faxed signed and re-faxed because KY DMV does not recognize anything from NJ DMV it was finally finished. Through this whole process I kept checking the website where they put a “Pending” graphic across the car, but remember these pictures were all I actually had during the waiting period of getting it financed to having it delivered. You and your staff were reassuringly easy to deal with and when I finally started the 2008 Highlander up for the first time all the stress immediately dissipated. It has been a couple of months now and I truly enjoy the 2008 Toyota Highlander Hybrid and would recommend Automotive Avenues to anyone. Your service from the guys that answer the phones, the salesman that make the deals (in my case a really good deal), to the lady in the back that handles all the title work and final preparations made buying online as stress free as possible, given the obvious hurdle of having to be patient. Thank You! Thank You! Thank You! I Love My New Car. More

My wife and I decided to fly out and drive the vehicle back. When we got to the dealer the vehicle was exactly as described and shown in the pictures. Mike and his manager were extremely nice and got us on our way quickly. The vehicle drove and rode great and we love it. I would'nt think twice about buying another vehicle from Automotive Avenues. Thanks guys for a great experience and a great car at a great price. More

I am very happy with the 2006 Lexus RX330 that I bought off of Ebay from Automotive Avenue. The transaction was easy and smooth. The car drives and feels very good. Everything worked in the car.

In March of 2012 I found a 2006 Dodge Durango Limited for sale on E-bay, I contacted the seller and read and re-read the description very carefully. It was stated VERY VERY plainly that "EVERYTHING ON THIS 2 sale on E-bay, I contacted the seller and read and re-read the description very carefully. It was stated VERY VERY plainly that "EVERYTHING ON THIS 2006 DODGE DURANGO WORKS PERFECTLY". Tires were said to be at 50% tread and only minor scratches. I purchased the vehicle and the problems started. 1. First I could not get anyone there to return my calls, then finally when they did, it was very apparent that Steve did not know what was going on. I was originally told shipping would be $750.00, Steve informed me it would be $1000.00, reluctantly I agreed. After hearing nothing for nearly a week, I called Steve to find out when i would receive the vehicle. I was transferred to Bill Solko, (supposedly the owner) after telling Bill about my apprehension in dealing with Steve, Bill told me to Deal with only him from that point on. I hung up feeling a little better. After a few days I had heard nothing again, so called Bill to find out when my car was being shipped, He informed me that they were having trouble finding a carrier to deliver my vehicle, I gave Bill a couple alternate delivery locations trying to expedite delivery. again i heard nothing for 2 days. Finally Bill called to say it was to leave their lot in two days, and he was going to run it through his shop one more time to make sure it was good to go and everything worked. 4 days later the transport driver called to arrange for a delivery time. when we got the car and started checking it out we found the following: TIRES HAD ONLY 20% TREAD LEFT AC DID NOT WORK CD PLAYER DID NOT WORK SEAT TRIM ON DRIVERS SIDE TAPED ON SUNROOF LEAKED WATER STAINS ON HEADLINER FROM SUNROOF LEAKING I immediately Called Bill and informed him of these issues, He said to get estimates to repair AC and he would cover the cost, he would send a replacement AM/FM/CD player, he said there was nothing he could do about the other issues. I said if he would take care of the AC repairs and send the replacement radio i would be satisfied. Over the next several days I obtained estimates from 2 reliable repair shops, Bill said they were too high and to go to the nearest Dodge Dealer and get an estimate. He did not like that one either, saying they were all 3 taking advantage, he would do some looking as well. after 3 days with no word, i took it on myself to call the dodge dealer in wall township (just a few miles from Automotive Avenues lot), thinking the repairs must be cheaper out there, and if so i would settle for compensation based on that estimate. The estimate from them was only $80.00 less than the lowest i had found locally. I informed Bill of this, as well as that I had not received the new radio yet. He informed me that he was going to be out of the office for the next week and he would get everything resolved upon his return. Ten business days passed and He did not make contact, by this time I am 99% sure I am gonna be Screwed for the repairs, radio, tires etc..... after several more emails, bill finally responds and says he will buy the parts and send them to me and he will find an affordable shop in my area to install them. Finally on 4/20 the parts arrived (one month since taking delivery)I emailed Bill that we had parts and to let me know what shop to take it to. no response from Bill, sent several more emails, and Bill finally responded on 5/1 (11 days later)at this time he stated that it was my fault it was taking so long, because I couldn't find reasonably priced estimates!!!! He said he would be willing to send us a check for $400.00 to cover labor to install parts. After having dealt with this for 6 weeks, I agreed and asked him to send it please. Today is June 16th and still have not received the check, I emailed Bill and he replied " I decided I had done more than enough by sending you replacement parts for items that were not even covered under the warranty you were given in the first place ". Nice customer service huh? Today we also had the AC replaced (the parts Bill sent were wrong) and i had to buy parts and pay labor, I am now out 900.00 for tires, $1000.00 for AC repair. $250.00 to have the sunroof leak fixed TOTAL OUT OF POCKET $2150.00, But Automotive Avenues won. I have every email sent to and received from them, and am going to the NJ Attorney Generals office next. More

We were shopping for a used Tahoe. Prior to going to dealerships to view vehicles, we did a good amount of internet research to determine what would be a good price for a 2005/06 model with the options dealerships to view vehicles, we did a good amount of internet research to determine what would be a good price for a 2005/06 model with the options we wanted. Although Wall was a good drive, we did go to Automotive Avenues. They had a nice selection and all the cars appeared clean. This place states they do not negotiate on price, and that was our experience. We put a deposit on a vehicle we liked ($500), and planned to pick it up the next day because a fan switch needed replacement. However, we did visit another dealership and found a vehicle we liked a bit better. When we informed Mike of this, he was completely professional, refunded our deposit and wished us well. Although we did not buy from Automotive Avenues, we had a very favorable experience there, and encountered no hassles regarding the return of our deposit. Mike was laid back, friendly, professional, the prices were good and the vehicles appeared clean, with Carfax provided. We certainly do recommend using this dealership--or at least going there and deciding for yourself on their professionalism. More

They have a no haggle pricing system which made buyin Automotive Avenues in Wall, NJ. I have to say it was the best car buying experience I ever had. They have a no haggle pricing system which made buying easier. I had already done my homework so I knew that I was saving between $4000 and $5000 by buying from them. They claim to be a large wholesale dealer that opened to the public in Wall and I have no choice but to believe it's true. The price and quality was simply amazing. Everyone there was really nice and it was a very light atmosphere. The owner (I think his name was Bill) even held our 1 year old while we took care of all the paperwork which included financing. FYI-they beat my credit unions rate too. I will never buy a used vehicle anywhere else. More

The listing was for a 2009 Toyota Prius Touring. I received a 2009 Toyota Prius Base model. There is about a $600 difference in the value of the two models. The vehicle was also not in the condition a received a 2009 Toyota Prius Base model. There is about a $600 difference in the value of the two models. The vehicle was also not in the condition as described in the listing. The listing stated "Everything in this Toyota is in good working order." I attempted to have the State Safety inspection performed but it would not pass. The passenger side headlight and fog light are burned out. The fog light is a relatively inexpensive repair but the headlight has an HID headlight and will be costly. The cost for the headlight comes to $303.85 because they have to remove the front bumper to replace a headlight on a Prius. The listing also stated "As for imperfections, there is nothing to mention with the exception of maybe a tiny scratch here or there." There is no mention nor picture of the softball size dent on the passenger side rear quarter panel. I paid $12900 for the car, $289 document fee, $300 shipping, 863.64 for taxes and title transfer, $73.81 for a PA State Safety and Emissions test that the vehicle could not pass, plus $51.33 to replace the torn wiper blades. The dealership said that the front spoiler was missing as well as a few screws under the hood and the plastic panel that covers the passenger side taillight inside the trunk. I contacted the seller. The owner immediately became very upset and started using profanity. I wanted to see if he would help cover some of the cost of repair just to get it to pass the State Safety Inspection but he said if I was wasn't happy he will have the car picked up and he will send me a check for $12900. I explained to Bill that I would be out almost $1600 if I did that. He became very angry at this point and continued to use profane language. He told me to take it or leave it. I said I couldn't afford to loose $1600 and the call ended. I spoke with Mike B. throughout the process of purchasing the vehicle. When I contacted Mike to express my concerns he advised me to contact the owner, Bill S. Upon further inspection of the vehicle the gaps in the front body panels are uneven which my mechanic said is an indication that there has been body work performed. More
