I've stopped in a few times while shopping for an EV, and each time I left conflicted. There is no warm welcome or customer-first service here: the two owners work the floor and (as other reviewers have mentioned) don't exactly go out of their way to help you. Because the cars are staggered inside a building, going for a test drive requires some maneuvering of the vehicles and they aren't jumping at the bit to get you in a car. In terms of vehicle quality, it's very hit or miss. Their pricing is pretty good, but they apparently take cars from auction and throw them right on the lot without any inspection or detailing. I drove one vehicle that looked great online but had a major alignment issue, mismatched tires, pretty bad scrapes, and a broken suspension link that caused a VERY loud banging noise on the road. I'm shocked the car was even on the floor, but the owner admitted he hadn't driven the vehicle. On the contrary, I looked at an absolutely pristine model the week prior that was a great value. So pay them a visit if there's a good car at the right price, but know you won't get the best customer experience (and make sure you inspect the vehicle carefully).

I visited Paramount Motors several times over a few years before purchasing an EV, and always had a positive experience ;-). Peter was always full of information when I asked questions, and knew the specs on the vehicles I was interested in. He and Robert were accommodating when we asked for a specialty plate for our car. Prices were competitive for the used Bolt that we bought. All in all I would recommend Paramount Motors.

Peter and Robert were both a joy to work with! They were very informed and shared all kinds of info we never got from other dealerships. They specialize in electric and have many brands onsite to compare. The sales floor is the exact opposite of the high-pressure stereotypical used car lot. They are attentive and answer questions, but all in all give you the space to show yourself around and take a look at the cars. The prices and inventory were better than anything else at dealerships in the area or compared to carvana. This was the best used car experience I've ever had!!

The selection of EV cars is nice, but I would not buy there due to staff that just does not care about the customers. We visited twice and the same guy was very unfriendly both times in different circumstances, also the car was dirty and he was OK about that because he knew he would sell it anyways. They just care about the money there.

Really cool car place, they had a bunch of different EVs there for fair prices. I bought a Chevy Bolt from Peter. Car dealerships usually make me feel icky so when I went in I was prepared to suffer through someone trying to sell me things I didn't need, but they didn't play any mind games or do other gross things. He also gave me some good info about charging spots around town and there's a very cute dog there too. If you're looking for an EV I'd definitely recommend dropping by.Also, I can see why some folks who are used to more traditional dealerships could see the experience here as standoffish but I appreciate sales folks who aren't pushy and let the product sell itself. Peter was available to answer questions and got me all the information I needed. It felt like I bought a car from a person, not a suit and tie with a slick haircut.

Quite possibly the most unfriendly, unhelpful dealership I have ever been to. Had 70k check in hand ready to purchase and literally treated like they didn’t care. Ended up working out for me though, got a better car at a great dealer that values customers

I came in today to look at a Tesla. I had 3 sheets of paper with addresses and info on about 30 different cars to look at all around the Puget sound. The search it actually started the day before obviously with no luck. Anyway I came in as soon as they open and was fortunate enough to meet Peter the owner. This man was very kind knowledgeable and not pushy in any way. He gave me ample time to look over the vehicle and make my decision. The decision was honestly made as soon as I saw the car it was beautiful and in fantastic shape. But I needed to do my research so he looked at my trade and promptly cleared out the showroom and gave me the keys and told me to go for a test drive. I ended up buying from Paramount not just because the car was in good shape because I'm sure I would have found another good Tesla to buy I had a lot written down and ready to go look at today. I purchased from Paramount because the ease and good atmosphere that Peter provided. If you are looking for a used EV of any kind Do yourself a favor and go talk to Peter I'm sure that he'll hook you up.

They have a good selection. Bought a Leaf from them. They dont negotiate on price, but all things considered it made sense to buy here.

Robert was so lovely to us, despite is not really knowing what we wanted. We were looking to figure out which EVs we liked to purchase a new daily driver. Originally we had come to check out the Fiat, but discovered we did not both fit in the car height wise. Robert recommended trying the bmw i3, and convinced me despite having some serious hate for the exterior of the vehicle. The best part is, now it's the front runner for me, the inside is so nice! With plenty of height for us both. Robert let us wander around and sit in several vehicles, and it saved us a ton of wandering and wondering due to the large selection of used vehicles from different manufacturers. Very knowledgeable about EVs, and I would definitely recommend!

Been following these folks online for a number of years and have always been impressed with their listings and fair pricing. In 2018 I decided to take the plunge and purchased a 2015 I3 Bev from somewhere else. After actually visiting these guys, I regret that decision. The up-selling and time spent on the transaction from a large dealer are just not what I want when making a car purchase. I wish I had come here 1st... Fast forward to 2021 and time for an upgrade! Need a little more range and newer technology. So I gave these guys a try and it was seriously much smoother, less pressure, and better value overall. Was tempted by a Tesla ;) but ended up with a newer I3 with greater range, got to luv parking these things in crowded parking lots. See you in 3 years, Peter! And let's revisit a Tesla :)
