“Great selling experience. You made the sale as painless and efficient as possible. If I have a car to sell in the future you will be my first stop.”
“Several years ago, after back surgery, I decided to sell my Porsche. Several parties were interested, all were difficult to deal with. I decided to keep it in the garage. As we are now moving, I’m forced to put the Porsche on the market. Again, several parties were interested, Alex Manos was, by far, the most satisfactory! Alex and his expert team, made the sale process easy, efficient and professional. I would sell to or buy a car from Alex.”
“Alex and his team were wonderful, keeping us well informed throughout the process and making sure all the details were in order. I would gladly work with them again!”
“The experience was great! We received the payment promptly and the transportation of the car went very smoothly. Overall, a very professional operation and everyone we interacted with was very pleasant and knowledgeable.”
“It was Great working Alex again, the process was seamless, from payment to pickup. I could not be more happy with the deal.”
“I was very impressed with the negotiations & professional procedures employed in my recent sale of a Porsche 356 Speedster. Alex & Abraham were very courteous and the ‘Title team’ including Salina & Edith were prompt & thorough. I can highly recommend the team effort.
“Very professional and curious.”
“As a Sr. Citizen looking to sell my cherished vehicle I had much anxiety. Once the initial contact was made from this company I knew I was in good, honest hands. Their customer service skills, patience with any technical requests were comforting. I could see I was working with a team who knew what they were doing. Each of them were knowledgeable and informed. Everything they said would happen during the transaction happened.When their driver arrived to complete the deal I was glad I chose this company to do business with.I am beyond pleased.”
“Great experience overall. Worked closely with the sales team to do the estimates, and they came to pick up the car on site. Very easy to complete the process. Definitely recommend!”
“My experience with the Alex Manos staff was a dream come true after the nightmare of my husband’s sudden death. He had a 1979 280SL Euro model sedan that was cosmetically lovely but mechanically ‘frozen’. After scouring my local mechanics for help, I realized no one here had the resources, personnel or interest to take it on. I was told the only option was to sell it to a junk yard, where it would surely lay rusting into the mud as parts would not be available, and fixing it would be twice the cost of what it was worth. I contacted the Alex Manos company, and after an uplifting phone call with Valerie, we agreed on a sale. Immediately after, they coordinated transportation, Title transfer & bill of sale processes, and within a week it was on its way to CA. With great relief, I was assured the car wouldn’t be sold for scrap or parted out, that it would be detailed and fixed and sold…which felt like the best possible outcome for a weary widow liquidating assets toward closure of the estate. As I said in my letter to them, they are famous for ‘spinning straw into gold’ (as their many website photos prove) They are the one company with the resources, the personnel and the *heart* to restore treasured-yet-challenging vehicles, and I & my family recommend them without reservation and with grateful hearts.”
“Hello Alex, I hope that you found the Royce in good order! My overall experience was satisfactory. All staff members with whom I had contact were knowledgeable and courteous. The transaction was completed without delay.”
“I went into the selling process with hopes that it would not be awful. It was NOT. Alex and his staff were quick, precise, honest and respectful. I may have been able to get a little more on the open market, but i would have to endure weeks of tire kickers, aggravation, and people willing to lowball me on the price. I contacted Alex on Monday, we reached a sale agreement on Tuesday, Alex paid for the car on Wednesday and picked it up on Thursday. They guided me through the sale process as cleanly as could be imagined. He got a really nice car for a competitive price and I was able to move on to other chores with a minimum of BS and aggravation.”
“My experience was exceptional. Working with Valarie Van Dam made the sales process for the Alfa Romeo transparent. I would use her services for any future requirements.”
“Very easy and NO STRESS transaction when selling the car….they walked me thru everything from start to completion of pick up. Thanks!”
“Thanks Alex. Wish i didn’t need to sell but the offer is what i needed. Easy deal. I wouldn’t think twice about doing business again. In fact, i wouldn’t think 1 and a half times.”
“It was an excellent experience. Alex and his team handled the transaction very professionally. Thank you!”
“This was my first time parting ways with my beloved Cadillac 59, a special heirloom that held sentimental value to me. I was hesitant to sell to just anyone, but speaking to Mr. Manos put me at ease. He was incredibly helpful, prompt, and professional throughout the process. The team that came to tow my car did so with meticulous care, ensuring its safe arrival in Beverly Hills. As my Cadillac embarked on its new journey, I couldn’t help but give it one last kiss. I highly recommend this company to anyone in need of a reliable and trustworthy buyer for their automobile.”
“The process was quick, efficient and painless – the only downside was that I had to give up my beloved Porsche (bad engine). I would not hesitate to do business with Alex again or refer him to others.”
“The service was great. He came on time and worked very fast to setup the mustang and left quickly. Thanks!”
“The sale of my two cars was quick and efficient, and the people who worked with us were pleasant and very helpful. I appreciated their consideration.”
“We are very pleased with our experience with Mr. Alex Manos. Mr. Alex Manos is a very honest man to deal with. Our experience was quick, pleasant, honest, and would be happy to do business with him again.”
“Alex was great to work with. He responded right away and made a fair offer for my 66 Corvette, funded the transaction just as promised, and picked up the car the next day.”
“My experience was great! Everyone made selling my husband’s car an easy thing. It was very emotional for my daughter and me. After working with Alex, I would highly recommend to anyone selling a classic. Fast, easy and no worries!”
“The service at Alex Manos was impeccable. I appreciate their professional and kind demeanor. I highly recommend selling or buying your car through them.”
“I had an extremely professional and efficient experience and would recommend them to anyone.”
“Negotiation was quick & fair. Sale was easy & funds were deposited lightning fast. Alex made it easy to sell my 2008 Porsche 911Targa 4S. His staff was professional & helpful. The team was a pleasure to do business with. Next time I have a classic car for sale I’m calling Alex Manos.”
“I had been thinking of selling my Ferrari for sometime, but had reservations about all the work & time required to get the car ready to post a good ad on one of the auction sites. Then I read an article on Hemmings, ” How to Sell a Classic Car That Needs Work”. It made a lot of sense for my particular situation, so I inquired about it. Alex contacted me the same day, we discussed the condition of the car, talked about value, came to mutual agreement with out any arm twisting. The wire was in my account the next day and the car picked up a couple days later. I have no reservations about doing another deal with him on another car that I am looking to sell. It was a positive, professional experience!”
“Very easy and secure transaction. Will sell vehicles with them again in the future.”
“It was a pleasure to deal with Alex he made it a very enjoyable experience.”
“Alex and his staff were easy to work with, very thorough, the transaction of the 1989 Carrera went smooth. I would recommend Alex Manos.”
“Each person I did business with, Tina, Valarie, and Derek, was efficient, well organized, and very professional. Also Camille who organized the transportation was pleasant.”
“I could not find a reasonable buyer for my 1987 Jaguar until I found Alex Manos searching the internet. These people are friendly , honest and professional. They made the process easy , fun and straightforward. I got paid quickly and with no hidden fees or strings attached. I would highly recommend these people to do business with.”
“It was an overall positive experience working with Alex Manos. The offer was in writing and the company followed through on all that was promised. Overall we received a fair offer and are satisfied with the sale. The car had sentimental value, 30yrs in our family, we feel this is a good home for the car giving it renewed life.”
“In buying my car Alex and I faced a lot of hard work. The car had been in storage for 30 years, but a nice photo of it alerted him to its potential. The original title had been lost and this required many interactions with the California DMV to buy a replacement, with the receipt functioning to permit Alex to move forward with the purchase. Alex guided me expertly through all the necessary steps. And finally, when the time came for moving the car from the Sacramento area to LA, he had engaged a towing company which worked closely with me and the storage place to schedule the arrival of their truck–necessary because I live some distance from the storage place myself. It all went pretty smoothly, thanks to Alex’s expert and professional help.”
“I must admit I wasn’t sure about dealing with a large professional dealership, but this was possibly the easiest automotive transaction I have ever had the privilege to deal with. Alex’s operation was smooth, professional and most of all extremely fair. I hope to have the opportunity to deal with them again! Thank you Alex! Best wishes in all your future dealings.”
“Fast, courteous, prompt responses and dialog.”
“This has got to be the easiest and most efficient way to sell a classic car for a fair price. It took all of a couple of days to complete the negotiations and the sale. Money was received promptly and the car was picked-up quickly.”
“Working with Alex was an amazing experience. The transaction was simple, straight forward and with no surprises. He is a professional car dealer and enthusiast. He made feel comfortable since we started to talk. I really recommend Alex and his team for selling your classic car. I couldn’t have easier for me to sell my Ferrari. He paid me the car right away before even shipping it. He is someone you can trust and his team made the selling experience extremely easy for me. Thank you Alex!”
“Best customer service experience I’ve had in years.”
“This was my second purchase and my experience with them is excellent. The staff was very helpful and very knowledgeable. Special thank you to Alex,Ila,John and especially to Valarie for keeping in touch the whole time. God Bless you all and I’ll see you guys soon!”
“My experience with Alex Manos has been absolutely amazing. I called in & spoke with Alex, I sent him the information along with pictures & videos of the 1985 Ferrari 308GTS Quattrovalvole. Then Alex called me and we negotiated a price over the phone and Alex decided to buy the Ferrari 308GTS from me….immediately we signed a bill of sale and the money was wired to my bank promptly. And several days later the car was picked up from my residence. The transaction was so smooth and Alex Manos and his staff were absolutely wonderful, easy to deal with & extremely courteous and friendly.”
“We had mixed feelings about parting with our car after over 43 years, but the whole process was quick and easy. Once we came to an agreed price, Alex sent over some preliminary paperwork. Upon completion, he arranged for a wire transfer of the funds into our account on the next business day. He also arranged for one of his crew to stop by the house and pick up the car. The driver was personable, professional and knowledgeable. He helped us complete the paperwork and we handed over the keys. The whole process took less than a half hour.”
“My experience with Valerie and multiple members of the Alex Manos staff was totally positive. I felt that all members were extremely qualified throughout our negotiations. I was pleased to deal with a firm that understood what the vehicle meant to me after nearly twenty-five years of ownership. My thanks to your entire staff.”
“Excellent Transaction. Fair price. Alex paid me while we were on the phone. I didn’t know you could get paid so quick. The worked to pick the car up around my schedule. Perfect. It was a seamless transaction. My only regret, is not having another car to sell to him.”
“I call Alex to sale a Dodge 1948, and all the people that I have communication during the process was so easy and fast.”
“My dream was to do a restoration on my 1972 Triumph TR6. I traveled from one state to another having the vehicle transported along. Due to my profession as a medical doctor I never had the time to accomplish this dream. I was forced to retire due to an expected medical condition. My classic car was sold to Alex because I knew his company would appreciate it and make my dream come true. It would mean a lot to see it restored.”
“Very professional, with respect towards me about why we are selling our classic car. The sell of the car made that easier for us. The paperwork Alex prepared was very professional and easy to do, and all the arrangements that we agreed on was completed as we had talked about, no hidden surprises afterwards. So thanks Alex, and I have a great feeling that our classic car gets a new owner that will love the car as we did for 53 years.”
“Working with Alex and his associates was such an easy and streamlined transaction. From start to finish his employees handled transportation of picking up our Porsche911. Everyone we dealt with was very courteous and conducted themselves in a professional manner. Everything they said went off without a hitch including the driver picking up the vehicle. We were very impressed with the entire process. Thank you Alex and your whole team.”
“Our experience working with Alex was excellent. He sent a rep to look over the cars we were selling and after the price was agreed to, his office arranged the shipping of the vehicles immediately. The sum agreed to was wired to our account even before the cars left our garage. We only wish we had more cars to sell to Alex!”
“The process of selling a classic car can be difficult. Alex Manos and his team of experts made everything seamless from start to finish. Alex himself is extremely easy to work with. Every promise made was a promise kept. Without any doubt, should I have another classic car to sell, I would most definitely choose Alex Manos.”
“A well-oiled organization. Easy, quick and straightforward process from start to finish.”
“I was looking to sell a classic car that was in need of some love and improvements after the loss of my husband. The communication skills were so prompt, and after finishing the sale – the other members of the company made the next steps so easy. They made arrangements for everything, made filling out paperwork simple, and even selected a great towing company to help transfer the car since I’m a few hours outside Los Angeles. I appreciate the process and am happy to have reached out to Alex. Thanks again.”
“I very much enjoyed the ease in which Alex purchased my 1969 Corvette.”
“I sold Alex my 1985 Aston Martin Lagonda Series II. Easy to work with and quick process! I will be working with him again to sell him some unique vehicles. Thank you Alex!”
“We were very pleased with the speed in which Alex handled the purchase of our 55 t-bird. We felt the price was a little on the low side, but it was great to have it taken care of so professionally and quickly. We needed the extra space in our garage right away and we got that. Thank you.”
“I sold two vehicles to AlexManos.com. Their process is simple. Once you’ve agreed on a price they provide all documentation you need to complete. They direct deposit to your account. Once you receive the deposit you overnight your title and a few documents they need to show ownership in California. They schedule transportation and come to your door f(or storage unit) for pickup. I highly recommend them.”
“My experience with AlexManos.com is a very positive one. Exceptional professionalism. I recommend them highly.”
“The staff were all completely professional and easy to work with. I was impressed with each individual I came in contact with especially. They were very friendly and helpful. Valerie worked with me to negotiate a smooth settlement on the selling price that allowed me to move forward and sell Alex my 1973 XJ 12 Series 1 Jaguar Sedan.”
“This is the second classic car that we sold to Mr. Alex. The entire process worked seamlessly like a well oiled machine. Ms. Edith was very professional and held my hand through processing the paperwork. I will definitely recommend to anyone who asks and all who don’t ask if I see a classic for sale.”
“Wow, my experience was wonderful. Everyone that I spoke to was kind and provided needed instructions on how to make the transaction seamless. Would recommend to anyone needing to sell their vintage vehicle.”
“From the moment we made contact, Alex and his staff were expedient with the necessary procedures in completing our transaction. Everyone were so courteous and friendly. It was a pleasure in doing business with them.”
“Dealing with Valarie was great. Paperwork was easy and the price was ok for the sale of my 68 Rivera. Once paper was done within 1 hour my bank had the check and their check cleared right away. Very easy process. Pickup of my car could have been smoother but all in all a good experience. I plan to go to look at their vehicles and maybe purchase one for my wife.”
“When in came time to selling my one-owner 1994 Alfa Romeo Spider Veloce Commemorative Limited Edition Convertible, I contacted Alex Manos. I wanted the car to go to someone who would appreciate and take good care of it. Their team was knowledgeable and valued my classic car. They told me exactly what to expect in the sales process and everything went as expected. Once we agreed on a price, they wired the money to my bank account on the same day. Then made arrangements to pick up the car. Their customer service was exceptional. If you have a classic automobile that you are thinking of selling, I would highly recommend that you contact Alex Manos first. I know that I am was glad that I did.”
“We were very happy and satisfied with selling our classic car to Alex Manos. They were reasonable and very good to work with and everything was done in a good timely manner.”
“Great experience very smooth and easy process would do business with this company again.”
“I owned a 1991 Porsche 964 Cabriolet. It took me a while to decide it was time to sell it. I had past the point in my life when I could enjoy it fully. Alex purchased the car. It was an amazing experience. He promptly sent me an offer for the car, sight-unseen. The offer was more than fair. As soon as I excepted the offer, he wired the money within minutes. A few minutes after that I was contacted to arrange shipment for the car. The staff working with title and moving were extremely professional. I made errors while signing the title over. They helped correct that very quickly. It made parting with such an iconic car that I’ve enjoyed so much as painless as possible. Thank you Alex and team.”
“You know, I am not sure I would call my interactions with the Alex Manos Group a ‘customer service’ contact but rather a ‘customer focused’ contact. Parting with my beloved 27 year-owned 1988 Mercedes Benz 560SL roadster was one of the potentially toughest tasks I have faced in a long time. But Valarie Van Dam and the team (thanks Salina, Camille and Derek) were so personal, professional and efficient that I immediately felt like one of the family. How many car transactions fall into that category….none in my decades on earth. The transaction, the pricing, the follow up, the paperwork, the transportation arrangements from the East Coast to LA…..all flawlessly handled. I am anxious for my 560 to find a new home and I am sure this team will do just that. I have not spoken with Alex but I can truly say that he has built a fine organization based on what we as clients want….honesty, transparency, efficiency and a caring attitude. Thank you Valarie for spearheading this transaction as you took a stressful moment in my life and made it somehow pleasant….amazing! I highly recommend Valarie and the entire team to be your ‘go to’ for classic car transactions!”
“I corresponded only with Valerie, Tina and Derek. The driver who did the pick up was really personable, good and helpful. I took me 6 months to decide to sell, but at my age I needed to pass my project along to a new owner. I was treated very well by the company.
“They were honest, transparent, and easy to work with. excellent communication and lived up to everything they promised.”
“Selling my beloved classic 1965 Mercedes 230 SL was an extremely heart breaking idea but Alex Manos made it much easier from start to finish. Alex gave me the best price and walked me through the process step by step. It was fast so the emotional connect I have with this car could not get in the way. I highly recommend AlexManos.com.”
“Alex and staff very easy to work with. I was offered a fair price and easy transaction. I would work with them again.”
“I contacted Alex Manos because of TV advertising. Valarie Van Dam was my contact and she was very nice and helpful. Once the price decision was made the check was deposited in my bank almost immediately. The car was picked up per my schedule. Outside of having a pit in my stomach, because I got the car when it was new, the transaction went smoothly. I would recommend doing business with Alex Manos and Valarie Van Dam.”
“Very quick and smooth transaction. Never has selling a classic car been so easy. No hassles, a fair offer and quick transfer of funds and pickup of the vehicle. I highly recommend!”
“Very professional negotiation, sale, and pick-up of my older Porsche 911. Alex and team make sure the seller is handled with great customer care. Thank you.”
“Overall, the experience was easy and very efficient. They provided everything to expedite the process and all I had to do was sit back and let them take care of it. They ensured I had the money prior to arranging transportation for the vehicle I sold them. The whole process was over in 3 days. Great experience!”
“Easy to access. Pleasant and professional. Prompt response to customer request. No hassle!”
“Positive, quick, easy, straightforward, efficient, classy, satisfying!”
“The whole team made this a seamless transaction. What a group of professionals! These folks go above and I appreciate all the help they provided. Very fair price as well. Highly recommend them!”
“Dealing with Alex Manos.com and staff made my car selling experience pretty easy. I’m on the East Coast with a 3 hour time difference. So distance is not a problem. The process was fast and smooth. Once you agree on the price the rest is as easy. The staff takes over and make sure you get your payment and make arrangements for car transport. You can’t get much better than that.”
“Alex, Abraham and the entire Team gave me a fair deal, great client care/follow-up I highly recommend, thanks again!!!
“I’m in my mid 70’s and I knew deep down I was never going to get these 3 cars running again which I neglected for many years after I purchased an older boat. They were a 69 and 70 Mercedes 300SEL 6.3 and and 86 Mercedes 560SEC. Alex agreed to purchase all 3 with very little haggling. I probably didn’t get top dollar for the cars but the transaction was very easy and I really needed the space in my garage and at my commercial property. I got what I asked and was promptly sent the monies even before the cars were picked up. His staff was very professional about getting all the paperwork done and arranging the transportation. In less than 2 weeks after my initial call to Alex, the cars were picked up and shipped from Everett, WA to Los Angeles. Selling these cars has given me a lot of peace of mind.”
“After my father’s passing I became the new owner of a classic car – a 1966 Mercedes-Benz – and it seemed that everyone had advice for me on its value, and how I should go about selling it. The only voice of reason through the whole process was Alex Manos. Alex and his team make the experience of selling a classic car straightforward and easy. When life got busy and I didn’t return Alex’s email, he would call me to follow-up. Alex had answers for every one of my questions, and when we made the deal, the money was wired to our account within minutes. Of all of the issues I had to work through during the settling of my father’s estate, selling his classic car was the easiest and most positive experience, all thanks to Alex and his team. If you’re wondering whether to work with Alex Manos to buy or sell your classic car, I recommend him highly. An absolutely frictionless experience, from beginning to end. Thank you Alex & team!”
“Alex and Valarie took the stress out of selling my car. They also had a wide variety of vehicles that struck my interest in the future if I decided to purchase another. Everyone was so extremely professional, even the one hauling it off…I believe his name was Xavier. A very nice gentleman. Thank you so very much to all who helped me through this transaction- especially Valarie!”
“I live in South Central Idaho and have (had) two classic Rolls Royce. I have enjoyed them immensely. However, the time came when I needed to move on, and I looked for a potential buyer for these cars. I called Alex Manos just to see what would happen. Alex and all his people were very kind, courteous. and professional. From my first call to the pick-up of the cars from my garage it went so smooth it was incredible.”
“Trying to sell a classic car to a private party can be a nightmare, but instead, with Valarie and the team at Alex Manos it was a dream come true! Their professionalism and efficiency was amazing. The entire process was painless from beginning to end – just what I was looking for. Thank you!”
“My experience dealing with Alex Manos was stress-free and exactly as they had promised me when I agreed to sell them my 1951 Mercury Sport Sedan. They told me what they needed for information. Any questions I had were answered immediately, either digitally or by telephone. An overnight transfer of funds was made to my bank by Mr. Manos as soon as I signed the necessary documents. Two days after receiving those funds, my Mercury was picked up at my residence by an auto transport company to be delivered to Los Angeles.”
“I sold a car this past week. The sale was seamless. The people I dealt with; Alex (owner), Edith (title and documents) and Camille (transportation) were all professional and personable. From initial contact to the car being picked up took less than a week. Excellent, considering the distance from my home to the Los Angeles area where he is located.”
“I am 76 years old and my Porsche 993 Targa is 26. The thought of trying to sell it was a concern for me. Once I contacted Alex Manos, he got the ball rolling. My initial vehicle submission was on Thursday. The offer AND bank wire payment was the next day. Pickup at my home was on Saturday. Every aspect went without a hitch. It was the easiest thing to do thanks to Alex’s superb and efficient process.”
“When it was time to sell a classic project car, Alex gave me the best offer, provided all of the paperwork, made all of the arrangements for shipping, and paid me in less than a day. I couldn’t get over and smooth and easy everything was. I would happily sell to them again!”
“Valerie was the greatest. The process took many months to get the title for my deceased father’s classic vehicle, but Valerie, Alex and the other stuck with me through it all. I wish I had another vehicle to sell. I very highly recommend them!”
“Excellent service at every level. From my initial contact with Alex through the pickup of my vehicle here in Tulsa OK. No gaps. No irritants. All positive interactions with his staff. Well done!”
“Very professional dealership. At the Alex Manos dealership, they know what they are doing. The transaction went smoothly with no pain and difficulty. If anybody wants to shop for a classic car, Alex Manos dealership is the one excellent source.”
“Alex has a very efficient and streamlined process for buying cars. Once I decided to sell my 1978 450sl, I was sent paperwork to sign and had money in my account the same day. My car was picked up the next day. Everyone I dealt with was always friendly and professional. I would recommend Alex Manos to all my classic car friends.”
“The process was quick and easy and Valarie and Derek were a great help with everything, I couldn’t find my VIN and they walked me threw everything over the phone. The tow guy was really nice and when I offered to help him he would not let me lol. I cried when he drove away with my baby but all in all it was a smooth transition.”
“Smooth transaction. All aspects were handled in a respectful, courteous, and professional manner.”
“The overall experience was excellent. The shipping and title departments were right on point and the money was in my account immediately upon our agreement.”
“Sold my 1974 corvette. Entire process was easy all questions during were answered.”
“Alex and his team were very professional and moved quickly. They were fair in their pricing, too. Made the transaction very smooth. I would not hesitate to buy or sell with them again.”
“Went to the website and downloaded some pictures of my car. I’ve bought a few cars from them and was familiar with the process. After about 15 minutes I had sold my car. Very easy and transparent. Alex works with you and his team had all the paperwork and payment before end of day. Very satisfied with this transaction.”
“As promised after the price was finally agreed-upon.”
