Easiest transaction I’ve ever had when buying a car. Sean really took care of me. I had done my research. Really wanted the Audi R8 RWS. They had my color in stock. They gave me a much better deal than a Sean really took care of me. I had done my research. Really wanted the Audi R8 RWS. They had my color in stock.

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

Best porsche buying experience so far TL DR - These guys are awesome and should be the only dealer you buy porsches from if you're on the West coast. I live in the bay area, and I'm jus TL DR - These guys are awesome and should be the only dealer you buy porsches from if you're on the West coast. I live in the bay area, and I'm just gonna say it, porsche dealers here are usually a pain in the xxx to deal with. The sales people will usually treat you in one of the two following ways - They think you are an idiot with too much money, and tries to take all your monies. - They think they are too good for you and you probably can't afford a porsche, and just completely ignore you. And just FYI, in all this process, I tried reaching out to dealers in SoCal as well and came back with similar conclusions. I first heard about Fresno from recommendations on rennlist. I originally worked out a deal with another sales person back in Dec 2017, and the car was scheduled to be delivered 7 months later (they didn't have an allocation at the time, but promised me one with a delivery date around July). Throughout the long wait, the original sales person I worked with left the company, but Sean and Arya quickly jumped in to take care of everything. There was no xx, and no random up-sell. When the time came, Sean worked with me on getting a finance deal from a credit union i found in the bay area with a great rate, and Arya and Sean worked together to help me sort out my LA delivery just in time. In the end, Arya even drove al the way to LA just to close out any final paperwork with me in person on the day of the delivery at PEC LA. I don't think you can ask for much more when dealing with a dealer remote. Oh and if you watch the promo videos on youtube, and documentaries on porsche, you will realize the owner of this dealership is actually featured in a lot of those as a porsche enthusiasts and race team owner... My question is... why would you ever buy a porsche from anyone else??? More

On the day we purchased our dream car, Dorsey took care of us and made our dream a reality. I told Dorsey that he doesn’t have to sell . . .all he has to do is let the person just drive a Porsche. It is incredible, unforgettable, and our family can’t stop smiling every time we drive it. The car is a dream and CJ and hiss staff are very good at what they do. Thank you Dorsey! More

That was the fastest Sean had my paperwork ready to go and I was in and out in about 20 minutes. Ted in finiance was a great guy and extremly honest! That was the fastest I ever been at a dealer. Oh yeah, he happens to be a nice guy to boot, so working with him for my A5 Sportback was a pleasure. CJ Wilson the owner was there and stopped to say hi. How many times has the owner said thanks for the business? I can’t say say enough about this classy dealership! Sean, take my money! More
