I live in the Madison, Wisconsin area and have been looking nationwide for a nice 2018-2019 Mercedes GLS 550. I called Amin about the 2018 GLS 550 in stock. He assured me it was a great vehicle. I made the commitment to buy it, so I flew from Madison, WI to Charlotte. Amin picked me up at the airport and the car did not disappoint! The transaction went smooth and I was off driving the GLS550 back to WI, a 13hr trek! I was a bit nervous about a potential breakdown, but to my pleasant surprise it performed very well. There was a brake shimmy so I called Amin about it and he made it right with me and I am a happy camper with this 2018 GLS 550 ! Thank you Amin for making this a very pleasant experience and I do recommend checking out their inventory, or let him know what you want to buy. Amin is a very personable and customer focused businessman. Best regards, Keith read more

I had been searching nation-wide for a special car as a surprise gift for my wife, fun to drive at a reasonable price point. I spotted a gem at Carolina Auto Imports. I picked up the phone to get some general information on a 2008 Audi TT 3.2L , convertible, manual transmission. Amin picked up the phone right away and spend a good 10 minutes describing the car; condition, maintenance record and the expenditures he had made along with supporting documentation without even realizing I was a true buyer. He was very enthusiastic about his inventory, and pride in his business reputation. I was soon convinced that I had a good dealership, considering I was purchasing a vehicle sight-unseen across the country. His communication skills are excellent; e-mails, personalized videos, texts, keeping me informed and advised every step of the way, door-to-door in Phoenix Arizona. Financials were streamlined and smooth. We found a transporter at a very reasonable quote and the delivery was spot-on time without incident. Please give Amin at Carolina Auto Imports consideration on your long-distance auto purchase. I am extremely pleased with my Audi TT and the methods to make it happen. Good job, Amin! read more

Carolina Auto Imports - 2008 Audi TT 3.2, 6 speed - Car Dealers Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

I posted a search looking for someone to program a key fob for an 06 Kia Sorento. They referred me to the Key Guru. I contacted this gentleman and he proceeded to tell me that it was too difficult to program a key Farb for my vehicle because of its age. I said there are simple YouTube videos that show how to accomplish this, I just don't have the equipment that's necessary. He blew me off and told me to do it myself then. I was in such shock at the level of poor customer service that I was speechless for a minute before I hung up. By promoting this man who is so unprofessional make sure company look bad. That's why the one star rating. read more

I found a car listed on Autotrader. Speaking with Amin was a pleasure. He had all his ducks in a row and they have gone out out their way to ensure the necessary services are done. I mentioned we would be flying across the country and driving the car back and he offered to pick me up from the airport in the car. Just a classy operation from start to finish. Ive worked at 7 dealerships and have had many other jobs in the automotive industry. As someone who knows a lot about this business all my questions were answered and any concerns were quickly put to rest. I've worked with a lot of fast and greasy sales people and Carolina Auto Imports is simply the opposite. If I'm confident buying a car 2800 miles away that says something! read more

Forget all the Used Car Salesman jokes you've heard. Amin Mehrizi and his team at Carolina Auto Imports are changing all that! I've been searching for a semi-rare car for quite a long time. I was pretty particular in what I was looking for. Not only was the subject of my search specific in terms of make, model, color, options and other factory attributes, I was very uncompromising on the condition and maintenance history. When I found an ad for a potential purchase at Carolina Auto Imports I quickly contacted Amin for more information. I cannot overstate the degree of attention Amin gave me. He answered all of my questions, but went far above and beyond any reasonable expectation. He gave me all of the information he'd gathered from the previous owner; he went out of his way to call the service department of the dealership where the car had had all maintenance performed and get the maintenance records. He got his hands on the service records and sent them to me to review. He took care of all of those history verification details that I normally do when considering a car. When it was the day to pick up the car and handle the paperwork, Amin had it all ready to go. Within just a few minutes all of the documents were signed, the temporary registration was dealt with, and everything buttoned up. No hassle, no pressure, no surprises. I was impressed with the unwavering professionalism, courtesy and friendliness that Amin showed me day in and day out. I'm not saying it is rare; I am saying it is unprecedented! I wish I could give 6 stars to Amin and his team @ Carolina Auto Imports! read more

This is how every dealership experience SHOULD be. Amin and his team go above and beyond to make sure you are comfortable with your purchase. They have nice cars on the lot, that have been taken care of, and in our case, still covered under warranty. Amin made sure to address the issues I noticed, even BEFORE I had a chance to mention them to him (detailing, rim repair, window switch malfunction). You can tell he wants to make sure he is selling you the right car, in the best condition possible, so that his customers are as happy as can be. I did not expect to pull into this place and buy a car, but he turned this skeptical buyer into a future repeat customer. My wife is loving her LR4. Thanks again! read more

Believe the reviews! I've experienced first hand what it's like to have an amazing purchasing experience with Carolina Auto Imports. Good people! Good, good people. It started with the moment I began inquiring about my Lexus SC 430. Amin text and emailed me more than enough pictures. Initially, the vehicle had a small section of missing paint. Although I was going to purchase the vehicle knowing there was that one imperfection, Amin sent the vehicle to his body shop and had the bruise fixed before I arrived because he wanted it to be perfect. Let me tell you that it really was perfect. After driving 3.5 hours from Atlanta to Charlotte in a rental vehicle, we were immediately greeted by Ahmad, Amin's dad. Talk about hospitality... The level of customer service was extremely warm, friendly and sincere... Wait a minute... Am I at the right place? There were no typical sales pitches or used car salesman energy. My mom and I felt completely at ease. We then test drove the vehicle and it absolutely drove as smooth as butter. I tried to find flaws to get the price down, but couldn't find any with the exception of one low beam light that was out... Lol... Amin committed to paying the fee for replacing the bulb when I returned home. Little to our surprise, Lexus had to remove the bumper to replace the bulb which resulted in a big unimaginable, unanticipated expense and a not so small job. Although it was more than any of us expected, Amin kept his word and paid the bill. We communicated before, during and after the bulb labor. I swear, the communication was so consistent, Amin never ignored my calls or text messages, it was almost as if he was sitting next to me like, "I got this!" Lexus Service man couldn't believe how genuinely nice and accommodating Amin was. He must have said at least four times that Amin is really sincere and very pleasant. Amin is a man of integrity who can not be duplicated. All car salesman can learn a lot from him. He's a tough act to follow. As a women, I felt safe, secure and comfortable with my Lexus purchase. There was never a sign of uneasiness, never any pressure, never any lying, or double talking. I will definitely send my friends and family here. You're in good hands with Amin and Ahmad at Carolina Auto Imports.. read more

By far the BEST car buying experience in my 20+ years of buying cars. My daughter needed a newer vehicle and we found Carolina Auto Imports on Carfax and the stress/anxiety of dealing with an auto dealership started. Who likes dealing with a car salesmen? The games, stress, long hours, unable/willing to work on the price, etc. You will not find any of that nonsense at Carolina Auto Imports. We had the pleasure of working with Amin. He is a very down to earth gentleman who took great care with us and within a hour and a half we were out the door. He is an honest salesman who truly cares about taking care of his customers. He promptly texts, calls and emails even when he's off, and it doesn't take him hours or days to get back with you. He truly wants you satisfied with your purchase and goes out of his way to ensure you are happy. I will continue to do business with Amin and Carolina Auto Imports. We, my daughter and I HIGHLY recommend Amin and Carolina Auto Imports for your next purchase. Just go in and talk to him to see for yourself. I'm sure you will not regret it. read more

Where do I start...? Call or Go to Carolina Auto Imports! I have never had such a GREAT experience before with a car dealership in my life. Moreover, I used to sell new & used cars when I was in my 20s and I was extremely impressed with Amin. How did I find Amin? I was looking for a car on Cargurus and came across a car I liked. I emailed for more info and got a response back immediately. It was from Amin. It was super friendly, very informative and sincere. At that point I realized that the car I inquired about did not have the drive train needed for my weather conditions. So, I sent an email back acknowledging Amin's promptness and politeness and also in my email I expressed that I made a mistake in the car I chose to inquire about. Amin's response was that he would check around for me and that maybe in a month he could find something. I expressed that I was looking to purchase in a few days to a week or two. No sooner (1 day) Amin found what I was looking for. We then spoke on the phone and I felt super confident that he was the salesperson for me. He provided me with so much info and we partnered up in the search for my next car. It has been such a great experience thus far that I couldn't wait to write a review. Amin has truly spent his time educating and "guiding" me through the process. I feel that I am very lucky to have worked with him. In the short amount of time I have recommended him to two co-workers and will continue to do so. A gentleman and conscientious communicator, Amin, wants to make you happy and feel like you got a great car at a great price. This is a family owned business and if Dad has taught him the business (which I suspect) then CHEERS! to Dad for teaching Amin to be a stand up salesperson. I highly recommend this dealership and look forward to buy another car when my husband's lease is up next year. Lastly, if you are from out of state don't worry as you don't have to actually drive there to see them in person. Thanks to cell phones with cameras and video and text options its like you are there. Excellent, excellent, excellent service. What more can I say? Work with them! Buy your car from them! Thank you Amin for all your efforts. You've blown me away and I hope that everyone who reads this review considers reaching out to you. Best of luck to all! read more

I highly recommend doing business with this company. It is unlike the typical car buying experience...in a great way! read more
