10/10 stars! It was an absolute pleasure working with Paul, and I couldn’t be happier with the car, expertise, communication, and the entire process. For anyone in the market, I would highly recommend AutoKennel as your first choice for any air cooled 911.

What a completely refreshing car buying experience! 100% total transparency, completely accurate representation of the vehicle and condition and great communication. These guys are true professionals!

I had a wonderful experience buying my '72 911 hotrod from Paul and his father at AutoKennel, so much so that I will definitely be a repeat customer for my next Porsche (the bug has bitten). I found out about AutoKennel from a cpl of the classic 911 forums. People in the community that are experienced and "in the know" highly recommended him. Communication was flawless and I never felt like I was being sold on something. Paul is very upfront on what a car is and isn't (the good and the bad) - I really appreciated this. Paul was very quick to respond to all emails and hop on the phone even if it was late and talk about tons of 911 related questions.

“ I’m a first-time Porsche owner, well… I am now thanks to Auto Kennel. Working with Paul I was able to achieve a childhood dream. I would like to add that I live in Texas so I was buying the car sight unseen. The website was extremely helpful with a great deal of background information on the car and several pictures which helped to aid me in my research and ultimately my final decision. Not only did Paul guide me through the process, but he helped to arrange a PPI from a qualified Porsche mechanic as well as shipping to the final destination. Not to mention he also kept me updated as things transpired. The customer service I received was simply outstanding. I could not be more happier with the purchase nor the process. So thank you Paul for not only your time and effort, but the salesmanship and follow through. After all it’s the possibility of having a dream come true that makes life interesting. So thanks to Auto Kennel, my life is now a little more interesting!”

Auto Kennel must be the best in the business. The level of personal service at Auto Kennel is highly abnormal. Paul and Ed, the father and son combo, are amazing. I bought a car there from across the country and their VIP service was nonstop, before and after the transaction. The detail and the thorough knowledge about the vehicle was unmatched, as well. Rapid responses through email and text make for a very confident purchase experience. But the personal touches and dedication to the buyer’s comfort and happiness is what stands out. It is obvious they love their job and love exceeding customer expectations. They care so much, and are so interested in constant support throughout the process, that I actually had to tell them that I was OK and I didn’t need their help anymore. I described it to my wife like this: Paul and Ed love cars, and they know that their customers love cars, and they want the love affair to continue forever! She didn’t get it:)

I recently purchased a Mercedes from Paul at Auto Kennel and wanted to share my experience with others. I have purchased several cars out of state in the past few years, but none of those experiences compare with the professional and responsive support I received from Paul. Every communication between me and Paul was fast, thorough and clear. From the initial discussion about the car, their knowledge of the model and the car's history, coordination of the PPI, arrangement of shipping, the buying process and all of the paperwork; every experience was exceptional. It seems clear to me that in the world of automotive sellers there are a small fraction of dealers that know what they are doing and strive to provide exceptional customer service. Auto Kennel is certainly in that small fraction. I will gladly buy from them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for an exceptional buying experience. Bravo!

Unfortunately I was too slow on the draw to get the car I was after but I can assure everyone that Paul is very easy to work with, patient and is happy to provide tons of information and history on the cars. That's not the kind of customer service you normally see with a resale shop so I was very impressed. They definitely live up to their great reputation when you deal with them in person.

I sold my first Porsche with Paul's help. I had been reading the stories he would write for other cars and I thought, "How can a person go wrong trusting Paul and Ed to sell their car?" I was not wrong! I could not have asked for a better experience. I wish I was back in the market for another car...we need more people in the business like Paul and Ed.

Selling my car via consignment through Auto Kennel could not have been a better experience. Paul patiently explained the market for my car and factors affecting the prices. His charges were fully explained along with recommended pre-sale work suggested to improve the salability of the car. Upon completion of the detailing he posted a most comprehensive ad and the car was sold within 2 days, for a price higher than I was expecting. This was truly a case of under-promising and over-delivering. I recommend Auto Kennel without hesitation if you are thinking of selling your car through consignment.

I’ve been to many dealers and over the years have bought so many cars. But i have never ever been to a place where i ran into a person like Paul. Super friendly and knowledgable. It was more like he ran a car club than a place that sold cars. My next car/porsche will be from them. They are the best in the business!!

All i can say is WOW!!! what a pleasure it was dealing with Paul and his father!! i just completed purchase of a classic 993 Turbo. Paul was everything i read on YELP... he made sure car was 100% perfect before it was delivered to me. Upon Pre Purchase inspection, car was deemed all the guys at Autokennel said it was.... Paul told me they found a rubber boot under intercooler that had a small tear, i would of never seen it or noticed it... but he said he had them replace it for me! Who does that?? They have a small operation, and from what i can see, customers are treated like family, they have a once a month cars and coffee, and seems all in attendance (thats when i picked up my car).. looked happy and content.. like they were just kicking back in there front yard... such a kool environment. Car was delivered without a spec of dust on it, Ed walked me thru all the controls, couldnt be happier with car and Autokennel!! 100% buy with confidence!! Deal was fair, ya get what ya pay for!!

Ed and Paul were incredibly helpful throughout the process of buying my 1986 Porsche 928S. Very responsive to questions and supplying info about the car. I live in Texas and bought the car sight-unseen, but the pictures and information they provided online were very accurate and complete. Paul even came out to the shop on a Sunday so my shipper could pick up the car during non-business hours! I'd buy from them again.

Would you buy a 34 year old Porsche 911 without taking it for a test drive? What about buying it sight unseen, just taking someone's word that it's a "great car Larry, and you'll never lose a dime if you buy this car" True story, I'm the guy who bought a '79 911 after talking to Paul at Auto Kennel 6 years ago. Paul took care of everything and shipped it to my front door somewhere in the future. (Grosse Ile, Mich.) Not only do I have a cool story, I have a someone in Costa Mesa named Paul who I highly recommend, and yes I still have the 911. Thanks Auto Kennel
