Sean LaBonte brings more than two decades of automotive experience to his role as New Car Sales Manager at Porsche Fresno. What began in 2002 as a hands-on path in technical training grew into a passion for performance vehicles, customer service, and helping people find cars they truly love. His career journey includes time with Lamborghini and McLaren dealerships in Southern California and Scottsdale, where he developed a deep knowledge of exotic brands and client care. At the dealership, Sean focuses on building long-term relationships and making the Porsche experience just as memorable as the cars themselves. When he’s not at work, you’ll likely find him enjoying time with his wife and three sons, adventuring through Yosemite, or pushing laps at the go-kart track. His Porsche story started with a Taycan, and today he enjoys his PTS Manaus Blue 911T along with an Ice Grey Macan EV.

Great purchase experience with pleasant surprises I had specific criteria for the Audi I wanted to buy - model, trim, year, mileage, etc. This dealership had one that met most of my requirements. My a I had specific criteria for the Audi I wanted to buy - model, trim, year, mileage, etc. This dealership had one that met most of my requirements. My almost entire purchase process was via email - everything from question/answers, price negotiation as well as special requests. I never felt pressured, rushed or frankly being taken advantage of -- which is a big deal for me as a used car buyer. Even for financing I felt the dealership out of their way to find me best loan rates. All in all I felt it was a very transparent purchase. More

Started off with an onli Big thank you to Sean Labonte who help me get into my dream car. He’s very easy going guy with no pressure selling a vehicle. Started off with an online conversation about the vehicle I’m interested to purchase, proceed with a credit app for a preapproval and I came in to personally check the vehicle. Then after that, the car is SOLD to me. Very smooth and fast transaction. I highly recommend Porsche of Fresno and ask for Sean Labonte if you’re in the market of buying a Porsche, Audi or BMW. On a side note: I’ve met and talked with the owner Mr. CJ Wilson. Who’s very passionate about Motorsport and an ex MLB player. Very nice, humble and easy going dude. More

He even sent very good photos of the car which I could magnify for close up detail. Sean's team locked in a trade in value for my old car and we negotiated a fair price for the new car. I wouldn't hesitate to deal with Porsche Fresno when I have a need in the future. More
