bought car from Garage Apex . Very happy with the service, such a great service, Kevin such a wonderful person , he dropped my purchased car to my place. I highly recommend all to buy car from Garage Apex .
Choosing a company to import a vehicle was not an easy task. It had to be trustworthy, reasonably priced, and have a friendly and helpful representative—all of which took time to find. In the end, I chose this company, and up until the moment I received the vehicle, I was extremely satisfied with their service.
David was the kindest and most professional agent I have ever dealt with. His support, along with his team’s, was so impressive that it even made me consider purchasing another vehicle just to experience their excellent service again.
Five stars wouldn’t be enough to express how satisfied I am.
I want to give a big shout-out to Chamod and his team especially David who was part of the importing journey from day one for one of dream cars, I never thought I’d be able to get one and with garage Apex’s expertise not only did buy one I got my dream spec if you’re looking to import I can’t recommend these guys enough.
