I just bought the most beautiful Corvette that I've ever seen from Donnie, and I had to write my first review online advocating for someone.
I was extremely sensitive to, and frustrated by, the way I was being treated by car salesmen while I was trying to purchase different cars.
I called up Donnie about the car I ended up buying, and he was very calming, straight to the point, and made me feel comfortable and appreciated, without even a hint of caring about whether or not I bought the car.
He allowed me to test drive on wet roads that would have made it necessary to wash the car again for his showroom, and he helped me out with the finances such that I could take the car home the day I test drove it.
I ended up buying a 2014 Corvette Stingray convertible and just had the most sublime experience driving it home from the Auto Quest lot.
For anyone considering a C6 vs C7 corvette, as I was, do yourself a favor and get the c7 corvette. It's a decade or two better.
Cheers to my first review. :)

Just wanted to thank Jason for helping me out with my out of state purchase! Communication was great through email, text and phone. Helped me get shipping and answered all my questions. He made the whole process easy for me without having to step foot in the door.

I recently purchased a 2006 Ford Mustang GT Convertible - sight unseen from Ohio! Dyana was great to work with and Donnie was super helpful too. (They even made sure I received the Mustang emblem that was missing from the grill.) The car was exactly as expected, I'm so happy with it!

Hello
I notice most reviews are positive about Auto Quest on here so here is one not so positive (ever wonder who writes positive reviews online).
I have never ever posted a review online but felt the need too now since my life and my family"s was put at risk last evening while driving back from Orlando.
First off realize many of Auto Quest cars come from auctions (think why do dealers send trade in cars to auctions).
We bought a Toyota Solara just over a year ago from Auto Quest at a fare price. It had 123K with new looking tires (Thunderer tires, real cheap tires) . First thing needed to put new struts on because upper mounts were shot on the front struts. Then now after 7K miles need catalytic converter, torque bar, and brake switch. Ok at 130K stuff fails.
But last night when driving back the front end started to shimmy by the time we got off the highway the steering wheel was rocking back and forth.
This morning found out steel belt was coming lose on right front. Service mechanic said you were real lucky if that tire had let go at 75 it would have ripped the right front off the car. He would even let me drive the car home while waiting for the new tires.
So 15 months later total of $3700 extra into the car.
There are three other solara's currently on the Auto Quest lot at dealer prices (Wanted to buy second one).
The black one has had three accidents, the white one has an accident with under carriage damage, and the red one has separated dash on passenger side.
Just writing as a caution, do your homework before buying from Auto Quest (remember cars from auctions).
Who put the cheap tires on the car that could have killed us on the highway? Guess we will never know.

Hello,My husband was on a quest to find a used CROSSFIRE, and we found the perfect one, at AutoQuest USA and we can unequivocally say that DONNIE SMITH was absolutely fantastic! We didn't experience the 'typical' sales pitch or get given the runaround - in fact, it was quite the contrary! Donnie was extremely friendly and congenial and went above and beyond, in making sure that we were happy with the car. Happy? Gosh, we were over the moon!We have absolutely NO hesitation in recommending DONNIE SMITH and AutoQuest USA to anyone, looking for a terrific used car and excellent customer service! Honestly, you won't be disappointed and you'll drive away with a BIG happy smile on your face! Thanks Donnie, for making the entire purchasing process so smooth and stress-free. You're the best!Cheers,Eddie and Val Herring

We have had a great experience at AutoQuest USA on San Carlos Blvd, when purchasing our 2005 Jag recently. When we walked in, it was just out of curiosity, and we were pleasantly surprised by the genuinely friendly, no-pressure atmosphere. Donnie is very low-key and easy to interact with, and it has been a pleasure dealing with him. We also appreciated his support after we purchased the car. He has been happy to answer all of our questions. I will definitely purchase my next car from Donnie, and highly recommend him!

Very pleasant car buying experience at Autoquest. Donnie was professional and courteous from the hello and handshake. After the sale I had to rely on Donnie to get my car shipped to me, approximately 1800 miles away. He was diligent in not only obtaining a good price but also getting it done in a timely manner. He followed up and followed through in every detail. I HIGHLY recommend Donnie Smith and AutoQuest.

My buying experience at Auto Quest with Donny was an absolute pleasure. He was so helpful from the beginning of the traction to the end and I was never bombarded with high pressure or fast talk and he never tried to push me into something over my budget. I will recommend Auto Quest and Donny to everyone I know without hesitation.
