“Abraham and the Manos Team were very efficient and professional. The process selling my 1969 RR was quick and Abraham explained all the steps with great customer service and response. Even the Tow Truck Driver Juan was professional too!”
“Could not ask for a better interaction selling my Maverick. They made the whole process extremely easy for me.”
“Entire process very easy, low pressure and fair. With one phone call the deal was completed to everyone’s satisfaction.”
“Good to congratulate you on a smooth experience!”
“I’ve owned my car for several years, so I was very reluctant to give it up. I contact Alex from a suggestion from a good friend. I was grateful that Alex was the buyer I connected with, he was very personable but professional also. He made each moment feel the entire time we negotiated that he wanted me to be satisfied with the outcome, and that was without pressure to sell. my old friend is gone but I’m very satisfied with the sale.”
“Wow all I can say is that they were very patient with me. And I can understand how sometimes that. Can be hard to do with some people . I try not to be one of those people but sometimes life gets in the way and well stuff happens. From Valerie to Vanessa they got a heck of a team down there . They made this whole experience as smooth as possible I have referred a couple of guys to them because I was soooo pleased with the way everything had went. Thanks you everyone yall!”
“I am very happy with my experience and would not hesitate to work with AlexManos.com again. The process was easy and communication was timely and accurate. I also appreciated the quick payment and timeliness of arranging a pick up for the car.”
“I want to thank all the various people that assisted me every step of the way in selling both of my vehicles. All of you have been very helpful and supportive and answering all my questions. I was assisted by Valarie Van Dam, Tina Morales and a gentleman name of Robert. You were all very personable and the customer service was great. Thanks to all of you for everything.”
“Smooth, fast and efficient transaction. Could not have been better.”
“Effortless from beginning to end, just the way we all imagine. Kudos Mr Manos. Funds were transferred immediately, transport was quick and efficient. Thank you Alex.”
“I sold Alex my 1966 Mercedes-Benz 230 SL, a car I’ve have had for almost 30 years. The transaction and negotiation were smooth, and money was wired the next day after we agreed on price. Alex was very reachable and promptly got back to me. If I another car or a friend who had an antique car I would strongly recommend him contacting Alex.”
“Our experience with Alex and the entire team was perfect! I couldn’t have asked for better. Completely logical process! Money shows up through a wire, you send the service records (which is sent through email) along with the title and signed purchase slip which is emailed, and then a truck comes to pick up the car within the hour of said time. Easy and extremely smooth. We sold them our inherited 2010 Porsche Panamera Turbo with only 25k in miles.. it was optioned out with no accidents. Everyone had an offer for it.. we found the most fair but also reliable offer to be with Alex. One has to be so careful these days. This is a company you can trust 100%.”
“Alex and his team were incredible to work with. The sale price was agreed upon quickly and reasonably, funds were transferred in a timely basis, and Camille and Corrine made the paperwork and transportation process a breeze. Very happy with the overall experience.”
“Selling my classic car went smoothly and working with Alex and his team was great!!”
“We recently became responsible for selling a well preserved, running 1975 Silver Shadow RR 4 dr. sedan by way of the death of a very close friend who owned the car among a small collection of vintage Rolls Royce cars as his appointed successor trustee to his estate since no heirs wanted it. We had little interest in the San Francisco area among several places that sold and repaired such cars on consignment and decided to look at the Southern California market. In looking at the 3-4 primary dealerships that dealt in Rolls Royce we found on line Alex Manos Custom Classic Car business an called them directly and principally dealt with Abraham Castallenos. They initially asked for the photos and the video of the car running since it was located in Northern California at the deceased second home in Mendocino county. We had very good multiple photos of the vehicle and from then on we could not have had a better experience in selling the car for our dear friend’s estate on behalf of his heirs. The entire process , negotiations of the sale, price, the immediate payment only based on our photos and emails, even without Abraham nor Alex having seen the actual vehicle, basically all conducted on faith alone, to his outfit picking up the vehicle in Mendocino with a special two axle trailer to our trustee picking up the check at the warehouse and main office building where the classic cars are stored and on display could not have gone smoother without any hitches. The overall experience could not have been conducted better we feel other than feeling some remorse in letting the car go after becoming fond of it and having driven it in the Mendocino and doing some minor repairs on the vehicle. We felt good that Alex and Abraham would do well by it to restore it and find an eventual good and worthy home for the classic car in remarkable shape we thought for a 1975 classic Rolls Royce car.”
“40 years of ownership came to a rapid end after contacting Alex. He responded immediately with an offer. After some negotiations, we settled on a price and two days later my Porsche was on its way to California. The paperwork on my end had some glitches but was quickly corrected by Alex’s, very efficient staff. Thank you Alex and “Happy Trails” to you and your staff.”
“It was an excellent process that went so much faster than we had expected. We are happy that this car that has been in our family for 52 years is in good hands.”
“I had a great experience selling my 1988 Porsche to Alex Manos. The process was smooth, professional, and straightforward from start to finish. Communication was clear and everything moved quickly. I truly appreciated how easy they made it. I was overly pleased with the process and the pick-up and transport of the vehicle too.”
“The Best! I had my baby toy Porsche 911 carrera Targa 1987 for almost 40 years since i was in my 20’s. Never wanted to sell it because you get so attached to something that gave you so many good times and memories of almost a lifetime. It becomes part of your life. But it was becoming very time consuming to take good care of it. For years i tought of selling it but i was afraid of all the sharks out there that made me feel scared of letting my dear car go into the wrong person. Being that i felt that my dear Porsche was part of me, i wouldn’t let go. Until recently that i had the curiosity of exploring exotic car dealers and i found Alex. NO PRESSURE. I found the RIGHT HOME for that part of me. It was so hard to let it go but i know it is in the best hands it can be. I hope some day i can get it back. ALEX MANOS and ALL HIS STAFF ARE THE BEST!!! I hope to get pictures and to keep posted on my baby’s whereabouts. IT WAS NOT ONLY ABOUT MONEY, he was very human and made my pain easier to cope with. Thank you Alex!”
“The entire transaction went smoothly and professionally. I would highly recommend Alex Manos.”
“This was my first experience with Alex, but I can tell you it wont be my last. He was so polite and professional to work with. From the beginning to the end everything went super smooth. He is a man of his word. He and his team kept me up to date along the entire process. The 1971 280SL was picked up in a timely manner and went super smooth. I am super happy with everything.”
“I would say keep up the good work, and a shout out to the crew.”
“Excellent experience the team at AlexManos.com, they were able to purchase my vehicle quickly and for a fair price. Once we agreed on price, all transactions were handled very professionally, quickly and hassle-free on my end. I appreciated how they handled everything in a timely manner and respected my time or lack thereof all along the way.”
“I recently both sold and bought cool cars with Alex Manos. The sale was handled professionally and quickly, and the sold car was picked up soon after the sale. I flew out to Los Angeles to inspect the new car I was thinking of buying and to lay eyes on the operation, which was impressive with the number and kinds of cars in inventory. I’m currently awaiting delivery of my newly purchased 1966 Austin-Healey. It’s worth a trip to LA to see this impressive collection of cool cars! Overall, a very nice experience!”
“I found the personnel at Alex Manos to be efficient, knowledgeable, and personable. Valerie was particularly efficient and very helpful in guiding me through the process not only once, but twice! She should be commended!”
“Overall Experience was 5 Star.”

“I found Mr. Alex Manos online. Mr.Manos returned my call and noticed he was very sincerely interest ed. as soon as seeing the photo of my 1983 Porsche 911sc he made an offer. after i accepted his offer within a few minutes he called me and wired the amount. his staff arranged and thereafter my Porsche picked up the same day. Very very pleased with such smooth operation.”
“I contacted Alex to sell a car. He responded immediately and we traded conversations and finalized the transaction. From that point on he had his professional people contact me to exchange necessary paperwork and for the pick up of the car. I couldn’t believe how well all went.”
“Alex Manos understands that you can view your classic car as practically a member of the family and that the sale is not made lightly. He understands the significance and treats the car and the experience of selling it in a way that eases the anxiety of it. I was grateful for that.”
“The process was seamless and very professional. All aspects with the exception of their contract shipping agent were very timely and exceeded my expectations.”
“I had been searching for a buyer that wasn’t just flipping my car in its present condition. I owned the car for 28 years and put a lot of time and money into its refurbishment. I wanted to sell it to someone who would finish what I had not and find it a good home. I had just got off the phone with my third prospective buyer. All of them initially low-balled the price and would lose interest in the car when I told them it needed a little work. I continued searching the web and found Alex Manos. I went ahead and called Alex believing that there would again be little interest in a car that needs a little work. Instead, I found Alex to be immediately interested in and knowledgeable of my car. After sending him some pictures, a list of things that I had done to the car, and the things that I considered unfinished, we were able to compromise on a fair price. The money was immediately wired to my bank account and he connected me to his people for handling paperwork and transportation from Dallas to LA. I appreciate Alex’s patience on the pickup date, as I needed to sort through 28 years of car related parts and documents to get the car packed and ready. When, the truck arrived for pickup I was simultaneously feeling sad to see it leave and very appreciative of the service that Alex provided … as my longtime passion and hobby made its way to LA. I can’t imagine an easier or better experience in selling a unique classic car. I whole-heartedly recommend Alex and his dealership for buying or selling such vehicles!
“Alex Manos is a class act. It was pleasure to deal with him and his team. He made the sale and collection of the vehicle simple and painless. I recommend him without hesitation.”
“Very honest to deal with!”
“I sold my 74 Corvette convertible to them. The transaction was very smooth,as soon as we agreed on the price. Payment was prompt. Valarie was a pleasure to work with.”
“Great transaction for all my cars. His team is excellent, courteous, and quick. I will always go back to Alex.”
“My experience with Alex Manos was simply exceptional. Alex is professional, courteous, and very respectful in the manner he does business. He earned my trust and confidence and handled the transaction as efficiently as possible. I would not hesitate to do business with Alex Manos and again or refer him to a friend.”
“My husband was the original owner of a 1996 Porsche 911 Cabriolet that he truly treasured. I say ‘was’ because unfortunately, he has back problems that made it difficult for him to enter and exit the vehicle, so it was decided it was time to sell. He did his research and was very impressed. He called Alex, the owner, who promptly scheduled an appointment to have someone come out to see the car. David arrived with a flatbed in case we were able to make a deal. I cannot say enough wonderful things about David. He is super personable, polite, kind, caring, and respectful. He did it all. He took photos of the car and went over every detail with Alex on the phone. When it came time for the offer, we were grateful that we were able to come to an agreement on a fair price. Alex was a pleasure to work with. He understood how difficult it was for us to part with a car that meant so much, and the entire process could not have gone any smoother. Everything was handled in a way that truly honored both the car and the memories attached to it. True to his word, the money was wired into our account right then on the spot. In closing, if you are looking to sell or buy a classic car, we highly recommend not looking elsewhere. This company is truly top notch.”
“Very organized and efficient process. Nothing bad to say. Made me feel extremely comfortable the way everything was handled. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to sell a high end classic car.”
“Fast payment and excellent staff that handled the transactions.”
“Alex and his team were able to make the transaction as quickly and efficiently as possible and the company was able to make it happen by cash offering directly to seller. I’m very pleased with the outcome.”
“Very good service really nice people all the way around. Everything was easy and fast!”
“Super easy, super quick, recommend!”
“Our conversation was short and too the point. I sent Alex some true-to-life photos of my vehicle. He made an offer. I countered. He accepted, then sent in the sum to a bank account based on the impressions he’d taken from the photos sent. Within 24 hours the $ had transferred and the logistics coordination was in motion. Other than the postpartum stemming from the end of a 40-year relationship, the entire experience was seamless. Thank you Alex.”
“Another smooth transaction in the sale of my 1960 MB 220 SE cpe. to Alex Manos and his professional support staff. Every aspect of the process, i.e. negotiated sale price, transfer of funds and sale documents, and post-sale transport of vehicle was seamless. I am happy to endorse Alex Manos to other prospective clients.”
“Alex and his associates are all professional and courteous. We would highly recommend them if you are looking to sell a classic car.”
“Process was a breeze. Submitted an inquiry, they indicated interest and asked for some pictures and a few videos of the vehicle, a couple of days later they presented an offer. Valarie was great with the negotiation process and explaining the breakdown of the offer. While anyone would hope to get more money for their vehicle, I think the number we landed on was fair. After that, process was quick and easy! They wired the money, I UPS’d the requested documents to them, and they picked the car up 2 days later.”
“Sold an 89 Porsche 911 to Alex. Very easy transaction. His team was very easy to work with.”
“First off my transaction was very quick, and professional. If you are considering a sale of your car, know that this company is in business for profit, and you may not get what you want for your car. That being said, they handle things expertly and quickly, set up shipping quickly, fast payment and friendly staff.”
“I sold a classic vehicle and the service went well transaction went well I would love to do business with you again.”
“Sold my Porsche 911sc 1979 to Alex it was a smooth deal super professional people to deal with it was a quick and satisfactory deal for me and had no issues . Definitely would deal deal with Alex again no problems.”
“I finally recently realized that my pride and joy, a beautiful German that I’ve owned for 35 years had to go. I received what was a modest offer from the dealer that I use in the Chicago area and was torn as to take the offer or not. My wife quickly got online and started researching exotic car, buyers and Alex’s name popped up right away. Thinking that this wouldn’t go very far. I gave a quick call to his office and virtually immediately he called back. He needed a little bit of information which I gave him and he immediately made me an offer that was significantly higher than the dealer. I actually sort of lost my breath for a second! I’m not kidding. Before I could even answer yes he said if I answer yes, right now he would up the offer by 20%! I started laughing out loud and said yes the whole transaction couldn’t have taken more than 30 seconds! The money came in a wire transfer that same day, he arranged for the pick up of the car and the transfer out to California. it all happened so fast it felt like my old girlfriend just jumped up and left me! However, it was a really excellent experience 5+ stars the whole way no drawbacks at all that I can think of. I don’t know if I would sell her again, but if I did, I would call him first for sure. Bing bang boom that should be his nickname! Anyways, thanks again, Alex.”
“Overall, it was an incredible experience! The staff was incredibly easy to contact and very friendly, knowledgeable, and experienced. I reached out to them for their expertise in selling my 1970 El Camino, and I was pleasantly surprised by the kind, fair, and friendly offer they made for my vehicle. This was my first time dealing with them, and I have no regrets! I highly recommend them and look forward to doing business with them again in the future!”
“Great time frame and service in the sales of my DeLorean to you. Title had issues and personal at AlexManos helped me to work through.”
“Valerie was great to deal with. Seamless process for selling my vehicle with them. Price was far and transaction couldn’t have been easier. Thank you and I recommend.”
“Great team to work with. Money was wired to me within minutes of a verbal agreement and the car was picked up a week later at my convenience. Support staff on the paperwork and scheduling were spot on as well. I would readily do business with Alex and his team again.”
“Great experience. Well done.”
“Good prices, fast and easy transactions. Very happy with everything.”
“From the moment I text Alex and sent pictures to him, he said ‘I want to buy your car’. He was patient after weeks of getting approval to sell the car to him. He didn’t waste any time in purchasing the car over the phone! Within minutes he sent the paperwork to sign through email and then wired the money for the car directly to the bank after all the paperwork was done. I would definitely recommend him and his company to purchase a car from you! He was very professional and to the point about how the sale was to be handled. The pickup and transport which was from Indianapolis to Beverly Hills, California was arranged on his end by his transport team and the contact was handled very smoothly.”
“After we agreed the price, I got money in bank by a wire within 24 hours, so quick. He didn’t need to inspect the car, bought AS IS condition. Good experience with Alex.”
“Second time dealing with Alex and the team. Professional efficient and above board. I will do business with them again!”
“You never know what you are going to get for service from a internet dealer… But spoke personally with Alex to sell my car, and he was a fantastic, straight-forward person to work with. Was a fantastic experience and his word was golden.. thank you Alex!”
“Easy and painless experience. David did a great job and was a perfect gentlemen.”
“Once the purchase price was agreed upon, the process was very quick, simple and painless. The driver was great too!”
“Valerie was as perfect as can be; very courteous , listening and very helpful’ It was a pleasure doing business with her.”
“Once the purchase price was agreed upon, the process was very quick, simple and painless. The driver was great too!”
“Alex responded quickly and professionally. His has a staff of knowledgeable and very helpful people to help out with all the questions and arrangements. I will recommend Alex and his staff to anyone I know looking to sell or buy a collector car.”
“Selling our 69 Mustang and working with Valerie, Derek, Edith, and Camille was quick and professionally handled. I would and have recommend Alex and his group fully and without reservation!”
“Alex helped through the whole sale.Fast on the phone,email. When it was done, money in account one hour later. The pick up was by a pro. DONE. GREAT. THANK YOU!”
“Very well organized and best managed business entity that I ever came across. Any question I had they responded immediately. From the point I decided to sell the car, the transaction was handled efficiently, funds were deposited into my account, and the car was out of my garage in a matter of few hours. The price was reasonable and nothing to complain about!”
“This is going to sound too good to be true, but it is true! My parents had a 1970 Mercedes 280 that was given to my mom by my grandfather, purchased in the 70s. Over time, the car became too much of a financial burden for my parents to keep repairing and investing in. One night while google searching, I stumbled upon Alex’s website, and on somewhat of a whim, I decided to submit a request to the contact form on the site along with photos of the car, just to see what would happen. Within 30 minutes of submitting the form, I received a phone call from Alex Manos, the owner. He asked a few questions about the car and then offered to buy it. I was extremely skeptical because I couldn’t fathom why this stranger from across the country would offer to buy this old car sight unseen – just seemed sketchy and like a potential scam. But after pondering it all weekend and talking with my parents, we decided we had nothing to lose – we agreed to accept his offer. He wired the money to my mom instantly – it was in her account the next business day. Once the funds cleared, Alex’s team coordinated us mailing the title & car docs to them, and they sent a truck out within two days to pickup the car. The entire process was stress-free, seamless, the communication was excellent and clear, and Alex was respectful and professional to work with. If you have a classic car to sell, I HIGHLY recommend Alex!”
“The sale was very efficient and effortless. Once the the sale price was agreed and documents signed the money was credited to my checking and within 2 days the vehicle was picked up. I trust the next owner will enjoy the vehicle to the fullest.”
“All aspects of the transactions were explained in detail upfront. The negotiation on the price of the vehicle was done, professionally and without pressure. Upon completion of the transaction, they picked up the vehicle on time.”
“I made the tough decision to sell my 1965 Mustang and the process couldn’t have been any easier. They wired the money to me and then a sent a driver by a few days later. I hope my beautiful car finds a good owner!”
“Valerie was great. So easy to deal with. The whole experience was easy, stress free. The offer was fair and maybe a little more than I expected. The car was picked up without any problem. I am looking forward to seeing pictures on line after it’s been fixed up. Thank you so much.”
“Working with Alex was truly a pleasure and a unique experience. We discussed the pertinent aspects of the vehicle and arrived at a valuation that was mutually beneficial. The entire process from discussion to sending photos to negotiation to having the payment wired to my account was around 10 minutes. It just doesn’t get any easier. The vehicle was picked within a couple of days. I would definitely do business again with Alex.”
“My transaction went smoothly and Alex is a great fit for selling cars like mine that will appeal to hobbyists wanting to add value with their time and talent. Alex was great at follow up. It was better than going the consignment route and wondering how long it would take to sell and at what price.”
“Very fast and professional. I would sell to them again, and I would buy from them. They wired the money for the transaction so fast, I couldn’t believe it. Every step of the way they were there to help and answer questions. It could not have been any easier for me as the seller.”
“Alex Manos was responsive and available for follow-up questions, even on the weekend. He was flexible about problems I had with paperwork. The transaction was very speedy.”
“Selling my late cousin’s classic automobile, located in the southeast U.S., to Alex was made super easy by Alex and his team, who were highly professional and proficient at all aspects of the purchase and transportation processes required.”
“I was very impressed with both Alex and his platform. I was immediately struck by his expertise in the classic car market. As far as the transaction, it was seamless during the entire process. Alex explained each step and his staff was equally professional and patient with the follow-up after Alex and I agreed on the terms. His business model made for a very pleasant and fair experience with him and his support staff. I anticipate being in the position to sell a classic again and will certainly reach out to Alex at that time. Thanks guys.”
“Alex was very clear on his instructions. We were happy with how quickly the transaction was completed.”
“Very smooth transaction. No issues from payment to pickup and shipping.”
“I called Alex, and within moments, the money was in my account. Within an hour, both of my cars were gone. Easiest sale ever.”
“Everything went really well will the sale, everyone that works with Alex Manos is very professional. Very enjoyable working with his crew.”
“Selling my Jaguar E type to Alex was a pleasant and efficient process. Alex did exactly what he said he would and when. He was straight forward and decisive with none of the problems that usually come with selling collector cars. The office staff were also fast and efficient in arranging the pick up and title transfer.”
“This was my second sale to Alex and I must say that I am overall impressed. Again the overall process was fairly straightforward, honest and as reasonably comfortable as possible in dealing with a vehicle sale from a remote location. Valarie was extremely helpful, fair and courteous during the actual “deal making” process and Edith was both comforting and very helpful during the documentation-paperwork process. Camille genuinely performed and assisted with the scheduling and specific details of the Transporter aspect of the sale. I can honestly state that I would have no reservations using their services in the future whenever a reasonable deal can be agreed upon.”
“Amazing. Bought a car two years ago from Alex and now selling a car, both experiences were easy, quick, professional, and seamless. Would absolutely recommend and will be a repeat customer in the future.”
“About as pleasant as it can be. Besides a bit of price haggling, I had a pleasant experience selling my ’84 911 Carrera to Alex. The paperwork and financial transaction was seamless.”
“My compliments to Alex Manos. After researching and deciding to sell my Porsche 993 I contacted Alex Manos after coming across one of his ads. He is very professional and truly knows the collector car market. We made a deal on the initial phone call. The price was accurate and he did everything he said he would do. He handled everything quickly and it was the best experience I have had selling an automobile and I have sold quite a few. I highly recommend his services and I will definitely use him again!”
“So easy! Sold two of my cars prior to selling my house. I had one left, that I dragged my feet on, didn’t want to part with it. Needed by far the most work, but being all original drove the best. My other 2 deals put me through the wringer. Deals falling out, nutty buyers, and everyone wanted ‘their’ mechanic to look at them. Being that this one was an old Buick I thought it would be easy. But old Buicks are hard to sell I guess. I would say give them a shot. At least you’ll save some money on all the booze you’ll need to make it through finding buyers and selling through traditional means.”
“Alex is amazing – I was referred to Alex from a highly trusted friend/client of over 35 years who is a car collector and expert. Alex returned my call quickly gave me a fair offer for my car and offered to wire money instantly. I have been in the car business for over 40 years and I am excited to know I have an expert to sell some of my cars to that are outside of my expertise. thank you again Alex and your amazing staff!”
“Such an easy and seamless experience. They took care of everything over the phone/email and set up a service to come and pick up the car at my residence. Would definitely recommend and work with again.”
“After we agreed to Alex’s price he was very professional and efficient in coming to collect the car and the various parts that existed. His men showed up on time with a flatbed truck and had the full payment in cash.”
“I was very skeptical about the company I was afraid it would be a scam well it is Not they did everything I asked of to assure they were honest and true to what they said. They are a honest high quality business and would not hesitate for one minute to recommend them. They are First Class.”
“This was a great experience. The team was easy to deal with, quick to respond, and very fair. The whole process was smooth and in the end I think everyone felt like it was a win-win situation. I was recommend Valarie from Alex Manos to anyone looking to sell a classic car.”
“Although initially concerned with respect to validity (potential scam), I took the risk and am glad that I did. I was impressed with both their overall process including the straightforward paperwork and also the professional and courteous attitude of all those that I worked with (not mentioning their names for their own privacy). I would be comfortable in continuing to do business with the them in the future.”
“First time seller , after i made the decision to sell it went really smooth .Everything was spelled out and all paper work was included.”
“Valerie and Derek were very nice and knowledgeable. All my questions were answered right away. They made me feel very comfortable selling my car. And I can’t forget about the guy who came to pick up the car. Excellent customer service.”
“It can be scary selling your car online. But the professionalism, and care of the employees set my mind at ease. Once we agreed on the price the transfer was very fast, and professional.”
“Very smooth process! Highly recommend to other sellers.”
