We just ordered a Porsche from here and were treated to a great experience. Working with Duffy Elliott was a total pleasure. No pressure or hype. Very professional. He was very knowledgable and accommodating. The process was quite straight forward and transparent. We drove a few cars, picked a model, looked for an existing car, decided to have one built, went through the options discussing each and selecting what we wanted, left a deposit... no hassles, simply a pleasant exchange...

Alex was simply outstanding. Personable, very knowledgable, and attentive. Alex made our car buying experience a complete pleasure from start to finish, enough to make us go back for a second one within 3 months. I would absolutely recommend Alex to everyone and anyone who wants to experience the fact that "There is no substitute" for a Porsche. Overall, working with Alex and Porsche Atlanta Perimeter was amazing and we highly recommend it. Alex, thank you!

Our salesman Gerry was so easy and comfortable that it made it a pleasant experience buying our first Porsche!! Gerry listened to our needs and concerns making this an easy decision. Ask for Gerry you'll be glad you did! Thanks again Gerry!

While shopping for a small luxury SUV, I researched on-line, narrowed down the ones I wanted to test drive and then asked my husband to join me as I popped into Porsche Atlanta Perimeter one afternoon. My first impression of May Neff, in sales, was that she was friendly, had a great passion for the vehicles she represented (which came through as genuine and not pushy) and was extremely knowledgeable about the Macan (you would think that would be a given but it was not the case at another dealership where I knew significantly more from my research than the salesperson). Due to an unexpected health issue, I delayed finalizing a choice for a few months. I then made an appointment with May and planned to either buy from her or another dealership we had visited. May listened to the options I wanted and said she thought I should look at the Macan Turbo instead of Macan S. I now drive a Macan Turbo that I cannot say enough good things about! Everyday errands are enjoyable-even in Atlanta traffic! My Macan Turbo's handling, quality interior and great options make for a fun and fabulous ride! Porsche Atlanta Perimeter's staff is the tops. Our personal experience interacting with May Neff, Sales Professional, Michael McGregor, New Sales Manager and Eric Mihelich, GM produced a sale that day. My husband is someone who is not a push over so it took an extremely bright, knowledgeable and dedicated staff to convince him to make this purchase even though we had planned to buy that day from one of the two dealerships we had visited. I continue to share my experience with others and tell everyone to visit this dealership and see May before they consider buying a new vehicle!Pamela

I have been lucky enough to now have completed two transactions with Gene, and when I say lucky I mean it! Gene makes the process of buying a car fun! Some might say "that is easy because it is a Porsche" but it isn't. In the end you are making a high cost purchase decision that you want to be both comfortable with and excited about. What separates Gene from other salespeople is that he intimately understands the product from a technical standpoint and the strengths and weaknesses of any given model. For me this is huge because I have bought many cars from other manufacturers where I know more than the salesperson. Gene's knowledge gives me confidence that I am making the right decision.Now let's get to his unbridled enthusiasm for the Porsche brand! Going on a test drive with Gene is a blast! He gets as or maybe even more excited than the customer. It's at that point where you realize you are building a friendship and that the experience is much more than just buying another car. Essentially you are becoming a part of a family where you can drop by any time to grab a coffee, look at some cool cars, go for a test drive or just hangout for a nice conversation about Porsches!I look forward to many more purchases with Gene as my salesperson. Simply put, "He Rules!"

I recently retired from the Marine Corps after 30 years of service and set my sights on a Porsche Cayman as my retirement present. I saw a Cayman online at Jim Ellis and Gene called me back. The initial Cayman sold before I could get over to see it. Gene phoned me back a few weeks later and told me about the Cayman I now own. Gene is a fantastic sales rep and also a great mechanic. He told me to call him anytime with questions as he used to work as a mechanic at the dealership, A very all around knowledgeable sales rep. I told him I would call him every month with a question, So far he has given me all the answers I needed to do the work myself. I have a question for him now. I have to go.

My Porsche saved my life. I was first introduced to Jim Ellis Porsche through their collision center after I moved to Atlanta from California and was broadsided in my 911 by a red light runner. My car was totaled, and after I got out of the hospital, the wonderful folks at Jim Ellis Collision pried off the hood medallion in the blazing summer heat (while wearing suits no less) for me to keep as a good luck charm that I still carry to this day. So of course, when it was time to purchase another Porsche, I came back to the Jim Ellis family at Porsche Atlanta Perimeter. It was here that I met Gene McClure, who shares an intense passion for all things Porsche. Gene went out of his way to share with me his personal collection of Porsche books & mementos as well as the new, beautiful showroom with its coffee counter, electronic golf driving range, and all the fun quotes on the walls and gorgeous cars scattered throughout. His technical expertise is phenomenal, having come out of the service department, and he answered all my questions reasonably and fairly while making recommendations and suggestions for future service and customization ideas. He made the overall purchase process easy and enjoyable. Every time I come back to the dealership, he makes it a point to come say hello & show me the new, cool cars in the showroom. I would highly recommend Gene & Porsche Atlanta Perimeter to anyone looking to purchase either a new or used Porsche. I know I'll certainly be back when it's time for an upgrade!

I was very impressed with the folks at Porsche Atlanta Perimeter. I went in last Saturday 5 PM to look for a CPO 2016 Black edition Cayman. The dealership did not have one. However, they quickly found one for me. There was only two in Atlanta area. I personally want to thank Gene McClure for making this buying experience a real joy, considering most previous vehicle purchases over the years have been a pain. Their focus on the needs of the customer is very apparent. I applaud them. Finally, I look forward to doing more business with them in the future. I would also highly recommend checking them out before making a vehicle purchase. Thanks again! Keep up the great work!

I had a marvelous experience dealing with Gene Mcclure.We had numerous emails before I finally decided to come take a look.He was a pleasure to deal with and was unhurried in his dealings with me +my wife.It is so nice to buy an amazing car in such a quality environment. Even Carol Duster from finance was a delight to deal with.This Dealership is the template for how dealerships should be.

Two months ago I bought Macan S with 3 extra warranties in addition to the regular standard warranty, Now the sales person Gene is denied and delay providing any after sales services on the defect and function they said it had but not anymore. However, I am really appreciate Eric Mihelich (the General Manager) and Sean the Service Manager at Jim Ellis quick response and action to fix the problems I pass on to Gene and being ignore.Great Managment and their sincerely care about their customer needs and bring customer satisfaction!

I had been looking for several months for a SUV. Gene kept in contact with me. The day I went, he showed me several models and drove a Macan. I was sold. The service after the sale has been great as well. In fact, I have just referred a friend to Gene and hopefully she will drive away with her car!

Gene was friendly, responsive, knowledgeable, assessable, practical, commercial and professional. I looked at a lot of GT-3s and spoke to a lot of other dealers, Gene was by far the best. He is one of the few people in the business that cares about his customers and wants to do what is best for you--not just try to make a sale. Gene will be the first call I make when it comes time to buy my next car.

I knew buying a Porsche would be a different experience, but I was completely blown away. From the time I walked through thr door to the time I drove off with my car, I was extremely well taken care of. Gene had extensive knowledge of the car and was a pleasure to deal with. I really appreciated the time he took to explain the different features of the models I considered. I really liked that his background included working in the service and repair area. He literally knew the cars inside and out and it showed. I had a great deal of confidence in his knowledge about Porsche automobiles. I plan on having this car for quite some time, but when I replace it I know who I am coming to.

State of the art facility in combination with truly exceptional personal service.l felt like the outstanding quality of Porsche automobiles was matched in my dealership experience . Gene was great from initial phone inquiry , presentation of various models , and eventual trade in process and purchase of my new GT 4 .

I recently purchased a GT4 and I truly enjoyed working with Gene. I'm a repeat customer andthe experience was worthy of a loyal customer.He really is passionate about the performance of Porsche's cars. especially the GT cars. and one drive is all it takes to appreciate the purity of the car.Great guy, lovely new dealership facilities.

Smoothest transaction ever. I am more than pleased with my new Mercedes Benz E350 Coupe! It was derailed to perfection and even still has the new car smell! Tommy was very down to earth and made us fill right at home!

I purchased a Mercedes sight unseen and had it shipped to me in Nashville.. I feel that their price was the best, and I really looked all over the country for what I wanted. My Becker Map Pilot was not in the car but Duffy had a brand new one shipped to me and it arrived via FedEx the next day. If I had to say one thing negative it would be. I did not feel like the car was really detailed very well (not a huge deal) and I even found some spare change and a remote to a ceiling fan or something in it, it was about a 7 on a scale of 1-10, but I am planning on having it detailed anyways.. Overall, I felt like it was a TERRIFIC purchase, great price and easy transaction...oh and I LOVE my new car! I would definitely purchase another car from Porsche Perimeter.

Liars and cheats. The sales rep I dealt with; Tommie Walter was very convincing that he was an honest man. I found the car I bought from them on auto trader while I was in Texas for work. I asked the salesman specifically on the first phone call I made to him if the car had ACC (adaptive cruise control) and a couple other specific features that I was looking for, and he told me it did. The car was then shipped to me after I sent in payment and signed paperwork. When the car arrived I noticed within a couple of hours that it didn't have the features I was promised. I spoke to the sales rep and he told me that the spec sheet didn't have those features and they can't return the car or do anything for me.So now I get to spend the next several weeks with my attorney and the Georgia attorney general getting my money back for trusting these people. DO NOT TRUST THEM!!!**Update. Just spoke with the general manager Erik M. he told me that he would take the car back, and then proceeded to chew me out for writing bad reviews about his business without calling him first. I told him exactly what the sales rep had told me which is that no one could take the car back and I can call his GM but they can't help me. He then told me that he didn't believe me that the sales rep told me the car had those features and he didn't believe me that there was anything I could do. I got upset at him and then he told me that Nevermind he won't take the car back. These people need a lesson in customer service.

Made a trip from NC to buy a used 911. Steven Dooley did a great job communicating condition of the car and when an additional defect was found, the dealer paid to have it repaired in my hometown. Well done!

I just wanted to say thank you to Porshe Atlanta for the outstanding service you gave me! I brought my car in for its timely maintenance check/ tune up and the service folks were extremely courteous and friendly. They told me the exactly what was being done to my car, explained the cost, and most importantly got the service done in a timely manner. Porshe Atlanta is definately my go to dealership!!

I made a special trip to Atlanta to look at one of Porsche Perimeter's trade-ins, a Nissan 370z. I found it on the internet and was seen by Gene McClure as we had already texted back-and-forth for 2 days. Gene was outstanding in every respect; polite, well mannered & knowledgeable. I left the dealership to look at another trade-in 370z across town, at a rival dealership. I was unimpressed with the salesman & that dealership. In fact, I called Gene back at Atlanta Porsche Perimeter ( Jim Ellis) from the rival dealership's parking lot and told Gene I would take his offer. He offered & then arranged the transport of the vehicle back to Columbia. Although I'm still in the process of buying the automobile (Fedexing paperwork back-and-forth), he's on top of things and treats me as if I was his only customer. I highly recommend this dealership and Gene McClure. You absolutely will not be disappointed.P.S I wonder if he's related to Zach McClure?

My wife and I are return customers at Jim Ellis, or now Porsche Atlanta Perimeter. We have bought many cars there... Too many probably, but it's so much fun. That's right, it is fun to buy there, service there, or just sit and have a Frappe there.My most recent purchase is a guards red GT4. What an experience. Zach, my salesman is great to us. Michael, our old salesman and now sales manager is great to us. And, everyone else there are great to us. Most employees there, have been with the company for years and years. Some have even left for other careers and returned. That speaks highly of any company, especially a car dealership. We are probably on the lower end of the income spectrum of most Porsche customers. You don't need to be rich to be treated well, though. Just go in without a chip on your shoulder, relax, and talk to staff. There is a wealth of knowledge and experience to help customers decide what is best for them. If you ask, they're more than happy with your build or selection. This comes in very handy down the road (I.e. Trade in values). They are fine letting you know what options help, hurt, or are just a waste of money. This has been immensely helpful to us, as we trade a lot.We have dealt with 2 other Porsche dealers in the past and had a completely different experience. Sure the other guys were nice, but when it came time for trade ins, they were ready to break one off, if you know what I mean.I stumbled on Jim Ellis Porsche about 5 years ago based solely on a great deal. Now I am completely dedicated. The sales staff are personable and look after their clients, because happy clients are ambassadors for the brand and return customers. This is their philosophy.Please, give them a shot. Worse case is they don't fit and you buy from someone else. Best case, you end up like us... A dealership staff that is part of the family.

A big change of the service manager these guys are lost several phone calls two weeks to get an oil change. they have changed their policies and procedures and had two weeks to tell me. Theydidn't bother to mention. I wasted a day there. Chuck is the worst rudest service Manger I have ever met. After trading 10 years 3 Porsches with Jim Ellis I am now a Hennessy fan.

Alright, so this is car number 8 from Jim Ellis Porsche. My wife just got her Boxster Spyder. Every time we return, we are treated better and better. Now, I'm not saying that you have to buy multiple cars to be treated well there. But, the bond we have built with Michael McGregor and Zach McClure is amazing. I would consider both of them as friends of the family. They truly appreciate cars and know the brand.In my opinion, Atlanta is blessed with the best Porsche dealers in the country. Both of them are excellent. But, having dealt with the Jim Ellis brand and the same sales persons for about 5-6 years now (virtually zero turnover), I can personally vouch for their integrity and quality. And, they also have a top notch coffee bar with an excellent barista. And it's complimentary.

We just purchased our 7th vehicle from Jim Ellis Porsche, and our 6th through Michael McGregor. This time we had Zach McClure assist us, as Michael is handling the duties of Sales Manager. Just like every other time, our purchase went off without a hitch. The vehicle arrived a month early and was ready for us to pick up in just a few days (including clear bra preparation). The finance side took a total of about 5-10 minutes, and the detail job was better than any other dealer can offer on delivery (hand washed).My wife and I have always been treated like first class customers, though we are just regular folks. Both Michael and Zach are fantastic. They are very knowledgeable about the brand and as courteous as anyone I've ever met. Any time we deal with Jim Ellis, we leave with a feeling of satisfaction and look forward to our next visit. It's a shame our local dealer isn't like this. Regardless, we will NEVER purchase a new Porsche from any other dealer besides Jim Ellis.

Going into the dealership, knowing that I'm a busy traveling person, I told the salesman that we had to be straight and to the point. I knew exactly what I wanted and what I was looking to pay. Orlando Ramirez took the task at hand and provided me with the best deal and experience. I would recommend Orlando and this dealership to anyone looking to purchase a car. They will find it and provide you with a great deal. Trust them and the process is what I did and got the best!

I had experienced a really negative event with another Porsche dealer in town. So much I almost swore off the brand all together after buying 4 cars. I took a chance on Jim Ellis Porsche and my faith has been restored. I worked with Fred Giles and mentioned the negative experience with the other dealer. Fred promptly introduced me to Eric Mihelich, the General Manager. Eric was very personable and took the time to work and earn my business. His communication was outstanding and always very personable. Together, Fred and Eric made the entire process easy and very pleasant. I buy several cars a year for myself, friends and family. I'm looking forward to working with Ellis Porsche in the future. 5 stars all around.

The true test of any good establishment is how they remedy issues and manage customers who are dissatisfied. After sharing my concerns with an experience at the dealership Jim Ellis (specifically Eric Mihelich) quickly investigated and resolved my issue. It is said that customers that have issues resolved in an efficient manner are even more loyal than those that never even encounter an issue. I look for that to be the case here.

If you are going to spend the money, spend it where they make you feel like they appreciate the business. Orlando in sales did just that. He was attentive and responsive which made for a great overall experience.

We just closed a deal with Duffy Elliott and he could not have been more pleasant and professional. Our experience was hassle free, no pressure and he listened to our needs instead of pursuing his own agenda. This is my first experience ever of this kind at any car dealership. All the staff was extremely friendly and service oriented. I would highly recommend Duffy Elliott at Jim Ellis Porsche!

From the time I stepped on to the car lot until the time I picked up my vehicle, I receive royal treatment. Carl Griffith put me at ease. No pressure. He was friendly, professional and extremely knowledgeable. He share is contact information and made himself available for any questions or concerns I had regarding the vehicle. Even during the weekend! Equally responsive and awesome was the Eric Mihelich! He was very personable and genuine in his approach with the negotiation process. I purchased a 2015 Macan S from Jim Ellis Porsche, Atlanta GA. A phenomenal team and great customer service. I am recommending this dealership to my friends.

Duffy is an excellent salesperson that has thorough knowledge of the products and services offered at Jim Ellis Porsche. He was very helpful with all aspects of the test drive, features of the auto, services at the dealership and all aspects of what I was getting into regarding the purchase of a 2014 Porsche certified/warrantied car. I highly recommend Duffy here and at any other opportunity I may have for referrals in the future. In fact the entire staff that I worked with Steven Dooley, Dick Chernek, as well as the Sales Manager, Eric Mihilech, were profession, intelligent, and efficient. I hope to return there in 3-5 years for my next upgrade. Thanks all- Chris M, New Boxster owner as of June 2015!

I cannot speak highly enough of Brian. I really have not met a better, more professional, and well informed sales person. He answered all of our questions thoroughly and provided us with quite the education on the Porsche Cayenne Turbo. He also followed up immediately! After owning two Porsche 911s purchased through Jim Ellis, I can say that I truly love the Porsche experience, and my Cayenne test drive did not disappoint!!We appreciate the professionalism and follow up both by Brian and Michael. We are in sales ourselves and are often dumbfounded by the lack of followup in the auto purchasing arena. Jim Ellis exceeded our expectations offering a superlative experience. Jan Wallace

Shane Masters at the Jim Ellis Collision center in Atlanta did a very professional job from the time he immediately met me when I arrived, gave me a reasonable idea of the time to fix the car, called 3 or 4 times during the process to update me on the progress, and had the car ready for me earlier than I expected.

We purchased our second car a Porsche 2012 Cayenne from Jim Ellis Porsche in Atlanta, Ga. We took our car in for it's first maintenance check, they took us right in. and less than an hour our car was finished. We were having a little problem with out built in GPS System. They reprogrammed the system which took care of the problem and we were back on the road, everything works perfect.

My wife, Judy and I were looking for a good used SUV. We stopped at Jim Ellis Porsche Dealership in Atlanta, Ga. met salesman Bruce Dean Zamora, who showed us some Porsche Cayenne. Bruce took his time showing us all the details on how everything worked and then we took a test drive. We drove a 2012 Cayenne, it drove like a dream...from the land navigation, to the Bose Sound System, to the spacious room, it was the car of our dreams. I am the proud owner of a 1999 Porsche 911 Carrera Cabriolet, and I this Cayenne lives up to the 911 reliability and service, we can be proud. Thank you, Jim Ellis and Dean for making our dreams come true. John & Judy Ratliff Demorest, Ga.

Bought a car today. Michael McGregor helped me and my wife. I had been communicating since I left a lead through their site. He had been super responsive all week via email as I was on business travel. When we came in, the whole process took less than 3 hours. My trade in was appropriately valued, the car's price was good (Porsche's are never going to be a steal) and the process was efficient. Michael is the nicest guy, and made us feel comfortable at all stages of the deal. The car was detailed and delivered with a full tank of gas, in time for us to have lunch. I'll buy my next car here again.

Bought 2014 certified and had faulty brakes. Called 15 mins later to return as we were returning to Fl and Im disabled also to make sure they would take us to get rental car and was lied to as they stalled for over 2hrs and were closer to Fl. Was promised imeadiate repair by Florida dealer and said I should have just turned around. The sales person Duffy kept stalling. Now to bad. I hate my new car. HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE. DO NOT TRUST. Also the repairing dealer could not understand why problem was not found in certification process and it had another open caimpaign and other fault codes.

We searched for almost four months for the right car (BMW X1) in the right color combination (Mineral Gray over Oyster Leather) for my mother. We found it at Ellis Porsche. Duffy (Internet sales) was prompt, direct, and professional. We put a deposit on it over the phone and drove to pick it up over the weekend. Great experience, great car, decent price.

I recently purchased a CPO 2013 Black C2 Cabrio at Jim Ellis Porsche. I wanted to let you know that the service I received was excellent from start to finish. I live in New York City so the purchase was made completely 'in the blind'. May Neff made what could have been a stressful and complicated process a very easy one. I felt I could trust May from the beginning, and when I received the car that trust was validated. Even after delivery May has continued to be easy to reach and attentive, leaving no detail unattended (today she even sent me the 4 black screws for the front license plate). I also wanted to mention Barzi Tejada's excellent service, she swiftly forwarded all the title/registration documents making the NY registration a snap. As a business owner myself I know you are only as good as the people on your team. Based on my experience with May and Barzi, it looks like Jim Ellis has little to worry about. Even though I am a bit far, I plan to make my next Porsche purchase at Jim Ellis. Best regardsEric C

Thanks Ryan/Chris. As always it is a pleasure doing business with you guys. I really value the trusting relationship we have forged over the past few years. If I can ever provide a reference for your store, please do not hesitate to ask. And I also refer to the two of you to anyone who asks ( and some who don't). Regards..Alan

On May 30 2014, contacted your dealership in regards of purchasing a used Porche Cayenne. My husband spoke to salesman (Danny). Let him know we were interested in a Black/Beige no more miles than 13,000. After waiting he brought a Silver one. Told him not interested, while waiting for him to come back spotted a new Maghony. Really liked it. After another wait, he came back with keys. We were very excited about purchasing it. After another wait, he told us it was not for sale. We then asked him to give us a trade-in price on our Volvo, he said he would get back to us the next morning. He never did. 2 weeks prior my husband contacted salesman (Ivan) to please send available inventory. He never sent the info. I am very interested in a Cayenne, but not from Jim Ellis.

Hello Michael McGregor,Thank you for sending the Title associated with the 2013 Red Carrera S I purchased through your store.I have been driving the car during the last week and continue to "discover" the magnificent vehicle dynamics. The suspension/PDK drivetrain are simply amazing. This, in comparison to my other two Porsche, a 1988 Carrera Club Racer and 2001 GT2 Euro Club Sport, both manual transmissions. The interior accoutrements and controls of the Carrera S are befitting of a true luxury car. Yet I know what lurks under the "sheep's clothing". In between my busy race schedule I hope to get the Carrera S to my home track (Watkins Glen International) when I am instructing with the various car clubs. I am sure my experience will broaden my smile.Once again, my experience dealing with Jim Ellis has been extraordinarily pleasant. You demonstrated credible behavior, answered all of my questions fully, represented the car accurately and provided detailed pictures of all aspects of the car and negotiated in good faith. I look forward to maintaining our relationship.Sincerely,Lou Betstadt

Unlike many Porsche owners, I don't have a lot of extra money. But I have done my best to work hard and save efficiently to be able now to hopefully purchase a nice preowned sports car of my dreams- a Porsche Boxster. Now I know many die hard Porsche drivers don't feel the Boxster is a true Porsche Sports car- but for us blue collared dreamers- please allow us to dream without making to much fun of us.Being my first Porsche and not being accustom to high end vehicles, I have been very apprehensive and even suspicious about the product and the sales process. I even went to the Porsche dealership close to our home in Tennessee and received the treatment that I figured would happen. When the sales professional realized I had more questions than money- they didn't have a lot of time for me.I then went online and that's where I met Steven Dooley. He has answered my every question by email and treated me with the greatest respect and professionalism. He is knowledgeable of the product and has been inviting but not pushy.My Boxster purchase is just days away and when it happens- Steven Dooley and Jim Ellis Porsche will be the place I purchase even though it's 225 miles away.

Best car buying experience i have had and i never even went to dealership! So maybe i have a problem 5 cars in last 8 yrs, but better then other addictions, that being said i have spent some time at dealers and working on car deals. My overall impression of Jim Ellis and Michael (who i mainly dealt with) was that these people (and i can't call them salesman) really care about the cars they are selling. Michael and staff really love these cars; for being out of state and dealing with ins and outs of that they to this point thane been great. I was very happy with deal we were able to work out win win all all sides. I would def go back and get another Porsche from them any day. I had originally heard about Jim Ellis from a friend as well who had recommended them to me.

Outstanding customer service! My experience with Jim Ellis Porsche began through an online inquiry reference a 2011 911 Carrera S. The price was within my price range and I had been reseaching vehicles online for a few weeks. After my initial inquiry, I was promptly contacted my their internet sales manager Michael McGregor about the car. Michael throughly answered any questions I had and even worked with me a a good faith estimate for my trade. There was a little back and forth negotiation, but in the end I got a fair and comfortable amount for my car. Mind you...all of this was done on line, since I actually live 5 hours away in the Florida Panhandle. A few days later I drove up to the dealership for a test drive of the 911. Since I liked the car, and our negotiations were already complete...knowing exactly where I stood on the purchase and trade, I "pulled the trigger" that very day, and was back at home for dinner with my sweet ride. I highly recommend Michael McGregor as a salesman. For all of you military men and women out there...he'll make an excellent battle buddy. He walked me through the car, explaining the features before, during, and after the test drive. I give all of these guys a thumps up.

My wife and I live in the Chattanooga area and have tried to do business with the local dealer with our first several Porsche purchases with no luck at all. Chattanooga is a small market and the vehicle selection and pricing is very restricted. This is what led to our devotion to the Jim Ellis franchise. If you are within driving distance (or even not), you may want to give them a shout before completing a purchase. This is the 4th Porsche that we've bought from Jim Ellis dealing with either Ryan or Michael (primarily Michael since Ryan is now in another position). My wife and I go through a lot of vehicles... I mean a lot. We are usually pretty squared away with our purchase process, but it usually involves a trade or multiple trades. Most people that deal in cars know that the trade is where you can lose your ace. Michael has always gone out of his way to ensure that we are happy and have a great experience. My wife and I have spent enough time down in Atlanta at the Jim Ellis Porsche dealership, with Michael in particular. In fact, I would consider him a friend, as he has always been extremely open, honest, and accomodating. In fact, we don't even really discuss price until we've picked a vehicle and are ready to deal. In my personal experience, if a sales person says don't worry about pricing, that is a huge setup. However, When Michael says that, he is 100% correct. Our last purchase was a Porsche Cayenne GTS. This was a substantial purchase, but I didn't even worry about the pricing point, as I knew we would be taken care of.

I was negotiating with several other dealers up and down the east coast on a 2011-2012 911. I actually went with the vehicle at Jim Ellis Porsche that was priced slightly higher -- I felt more confident in the sales process with Jim Ellis Porsche rather than the others. All in all, my experience with Jim Ellis Porsche was great! The car was delivered as advertised, and Michael McGregor was very responsive before the sale and after delivery. Some outstanding things: 1. I'm living in DC, so I had to fly down to Atlanta to take delivery on the vehicle. A limo was waiting for me at the airport to take me to the dealership. That was outstanding! 2. Once I arrived at the dealership, I was out within an hour. That was outstanding! I've found that other dealers (especially other Porsche dealers for some reason) do not respect my time. Also no last-minute negotiations on pricing or messing around with financing as I've experienced with other dealerships. 3. Follow-up on my State of Virginia license plates is prompt. What could have been better? Nothing, I'll probably purchase my next 911 from Jim Ellis Porsche.

Dean was a great sales person. Too bad the computer system on the White 2007 X5 was faulty and the manager would not allow him to lower the price if the vehicle. Manager stated he would rather sell it wholesale to a BMW dealership.

Went out of the way to get me into the autombile that I wanted and took care of all of the issues related to pick-up of the car. I would recommend this dealership to anyone interested in a high performance car.

I would have loved to write a nice review but the service and general organization of my transaction with these clowns makes me really angry. They do not communicate from one department to the other. It's like their right hand does not know what the left hand is doing. Whats worse is they dont reply to messages or phone calls. Do yourself a big favor and go to a dealership which takes pride in offering service to people who spend over $160,000 buying a car.

If they want to advertise what they have in stock, why not show the exterior and interior colors of the unit? Sort of dumb and loose to try to make a sale with Cars.com.

After many Porsche purchases, I tried Jim Ellis for the first time. Excellent! I highly recommend! Michael McGregor made it a great experience. We traded in two low mileage cars and were given great consideration on values for both vehicles. After this experience, I would refer anyone in the market for a new or Pre-owned Porsche to check out Jim Ellis. My wife loves her new Cayenne S!

One of the best car buying experiences I have had. In the past I had a very bad experience with another dealership and, as a woman, was a bit leery about purchasing another car. Jim Ellis Porsche and their saleaman, Carl Griffith, were to say the least, the best experience I have ever had. Jim Ellis gets a thumbs up from me!

I recently purchased a 2012 Panamera from Jim Ellis Porsche. The excellent experience I had with Rich Kraft convinced me that my next purchase will be from Rich. Please continue with the great customer service. Prior to visiting your dealership on the day I made my purchase I did visit Hennessy Porsche on 2 different occasions given that at they had a greater selection of vehicles. However their poor customer service and my overall negative experience made me come back to Jim Ellis dealership due to the positive experience we had in the past at Jim Ellis Audi where we purchase the Audi A7 last year. -- Dr Landa

This is was one the nicest experiences I have ever had at a new car dealership! Scott spent almost 3 hours with me on a Friday night. This included two different test drives and then walking the sales lot to find certain cars to sit in. He was very knowledgable and very accomadating. Never once did he use a high pressure sales tactic. Actually after we found the one car I was leaning towards, he recommended I go home and sleep on it. After visiting another dealer the next day, I returned to see the car again and see what kind of deal I could get. Scott came back the first time with what I felt was an excellent deal and basically beat the other dealership rather badly. I appreciated the truthfulness and the honesty of both Scott and his manager. I have only owned the car for three days, so I haven't had an experience with the service Department yell, but I can totally recommend this sales team. Especially the salesman Scott Chmiel. They have earned a repeat customer already!!

"Ryan, and the rest of the team, made me feel like I had an advocate inside the team. Everyone was always polite, helpful, and courteous. I had some wheels painted that upon their return to the dealership did not meet the teams standards. Ryan was communicative and quick to find another solution. In the end, the team completely exceeded my expectations. Building a quality service organization requires hiring the right people and having a passionate, customer-centric cultural. Jim Ellis Porsche is that type of organization. -- Tyler Winkler"

The Internet sales department and all of the staff were excellent. All of my requests for information and pictures of the car were met in a very timely manner with polite and informative emails and phone calls. The process could not have been easier, and I had no fear flying out to Atlanta to buy the car. They arranged for a limo service to meet me at the airport, I was greeted at the door when I arrived at the dealership, and the overall customer service was fantastic. The Cayenne was in even better condition than advertised and I was on the road in my "new to me" vehicle in no time!

All of the service advisors are great! I am happy with whomever handles my questions---always willing to explain the service, answer my questions, address my concerns,etc. Always courteous and willing to assist me, even those times when I can see that the Department is busy. I trust the Service Department at Jim Ellis Porsche to do what is appropriate to keep my Porsche in top running order.

Ryan and Michael are the absolute best. This is my 3rd new Porsche purchased from this team and I couldn't be happier with each of the sales experiences. They have tremendous expertise and even when this deal was more complex, involving a trade with an out-of-state dealer, everything went very smoothly. They kept me informed throughout the process and honored any special requests I made. - Steven Lee

Outstanding service that is complete and done right the first time. Ive been taking my 996 to Jim Ellis for service since day one and usually ask for Johnathon. This guy is incrediable and the best tech that you will find on the planet. Are there less expensive service centers available? Sure, but my experience has been that these guys know what they are doing, they correctly fix the problem the first time and thoroughly inspect the car at each service level. Heres an example of going above and beyond. I had recently put a new set of tires on the car which I purchased at a specialty tire center known for high performance cars. On my way home my flat tire warning came on. This was late Saturday afternoon and the tire center was now closed. I pulled into Jim Ellis, Johnathon pulled my car in, located the problem tire, dismounted it, cleaned the inner rim (the cause of the problem), reinstalled the tire and charged me NOTHING!

As I stated to both Ryan and Lenny, I know where my next car purchase(s) will be from. When you invest six-figures in an automobile, you should get great service & support. You guys passed that test with flying colors. Thanks you for giving me such peace of mind with my vehicle. -- David

I had not planned on making a purchase yesterday/this week/this month and had only planned on a lunch stop by to have a look at two that were the right color combination for me. No regrets -- I have exactly what I wanted in my garage. Detailing the car took longer than the sales process. I even got back to work in time to show off the car.Chris made it too easy; no pressure, no hard sales, none of what I have come to expect when purchasing a car.

I am very pleased with my experience purchasing this car. Michael and Ryan in the Internet Sales Division were extremely helpful. I had a short window of time that allowed me to fly north to pick up the car and return home to Key West. When I arrived in Atlanta it was a relief to find that everything that needed to be completed was completed. Your staff went above and beyond to make sure that the whole process was smooth and hassle free. I know that the next time I am looking for another Porsche my first stop will be your web site. -- Greg Daniels.

After spending hours encompassing several visits trying to buy a new or late model C4S, the salesman determined that he just didn't have the car for me. I found a used 'o2 model out of state to buy. I immediately took it to the Dealer to have $2,000 of new tires and associated work done. They refused to give me a loaner. Instead of calling on them in 2 years to buy a new one I will go elsewhere first. Seems penny wise pound foolish to me

Worried about their survey cards, but not too much else. Hard to schedule appointments, often don't get to your car the day (which you had to schedule for weeks in advance) it is dropped off and they give you a junky loan ("thanks for dropping off your 996 C4, here's a smoked in Mazda").
