Write a reviewGreat Car Buy and Excellent Service!!!
I bought a 2008 Pontiac Grand Prix from Southside Automotive of Anderson 2 weeks ago and it has been a fantastic experience. The car is great as they thoroughly check every car before they sell it. I greatly appreciate David Amadio and the time and effort he took in helping me get the car. As I was working with the bank to get my loan approved not only did David hold the car for me but worked with me. He called other banks and even lowered the price of the car from his original offer to help with the banks. He held it longer than a week for me as I got things figured out. The day I came in and made the purchase, it was stress free and quick. Upon giving the keys to me, Dave even took the car up to the nearest gas station and filled the tank up all the way. Knowing I lived a little more than 50 miles away he took the time to make sure I had enough fuel to get back home. Again, it was great service and a great car buy. I really am grateful that Southside Automotive of Anderson and David Amadio made this experience a fantastic one. I would recommend Southside Automotive of Anderson to everyone!

Amazing customer service and car from these guys
Dave sold me 2009 Mini Cooper S over this past week. He went the extra mile to make sure that the car didn't need any extra work to make sure I wouldn't have any problems. Found that the car had a minor oil leak and went ahead and took care of that repair, and also went ahead and replaced the turbo lines on the car which was a repair that wasn't necessary to do at the time but just for preventative maintenance. This just showed how much he takes care of his customers. I'll be recommending anyone I know shopping for used cars to go here and shop with Dave and his staff.

Best Dealer in the area
We bought my daughter's first car from here. David and Shane were amazingly helpful and easy to work with. Shane made sure that the car was in top condition, and David made the buying process very easy. Friendly attitudes and professional, atmosphere, This was the best dealership I have ever delt with. THANK YOU, Southside Automotive. I recommend you to everyone!!!

Highly Recommend
I looked at several cars before deciding on which one or purchase. I found Southside Automotive through a search on this site and at first dismissed it because it was in Anderson. But then I realized it was just as close as some of the options I was considering on the west side. I inquired about one of the vehicles they had listed and Dave personally replied with great information about the car. When I visited the dealer, I was very impressed by both Dave and the facility. He took the time to explain the pros and cons of the vehicle I was considering. Dave personally drives each car 100 miles before making it available for sale and specializes in quality cars for less than $10k. If this is the market you are in, definitely consider Southside Automotive. You will have an amazingly positive experience.

Amazing Experience!
I'd been looking for the perfect MINI Cooper for the longest time when I happened to see one at Southside Automotive. It was clean, in great exterior and interior shape, and reasonably priced. Dave was extremely helpful and made the buying process so easy. He never pressured us to buy the car and made sure we were happy with it before we did. He went out of his way to make sure my first car was perfect... he put brand new tires on my car before I purchased it and took it to Dreyer and Reinbold to make sure everything was in great mechanical shape. It ended up having to be in the service department there for about a week, and Dave even went to the MINI gift store and bought me a present for having to wait for my car. If you're looking to buy a great used car from a great dealer, check out Southside Automotive!

Great Experience
I have to say this was the best car buying experience I have had. I had been looking at other cars(private and dealer) and finally found one in great shape and a even better price at Southside. Dave, the owner, is very personable, and knows a lot about the cars he is selling too. I would not hesitate to buy another car from there again.

One word: AMAZING
I highly recommend Southside Automotive. Dave, the owner, was phenomenal. I never felt pressured and that was very important to me. He was down to earth and very professional at the same time. He went out of his way to make sure all of my concerns were addressed. I would definitely go back again to buy my next vehicle (even though it is an 1.5 hour away from my house!). Kudos to Dave and to Southside Automotive!

STRESS FREE AND NO PRESSURE
A great place to buy a car! Dave was really nice. I went to go test drive the car. Dave told me all about the car. I drove it. He did not pressure me nor play those stupid car games. Super simple. Very friendly. I found the right vehicle at a good price!

Very satisfied customer!
First, I HATE buying cars.. the whole process of researching, hunting them down and testing them is just not for me. I was in the market for something relatively specific, had done my research and basically just needed to pick which one I wanted. Southside was a bit of a hike and I contemplated not even going bit I am VERY glad I did. The car (and others on the lot) were obviously well chosen for resale and well kept up on the lot. ATTENTION TO DETAIL and HONESTY are obviously hallmarks of Dave's (the owner). I would highly suggest to anyone looking for a best bang for your buck car. In fact, my friend who came with to see the car is seriously thinking of buying here shortly.
