I went To look at a 1966 corvette with my expert who immediately found frame damage and told me to stay away , we did see however see a 1970 Chevelle, which the salesman Dave Rico said was a full frame off restoration and was saying what a nice car it was.
He also stated that everything worked on the car and it was one of his pet peeves .. so here's what didn't work .. let's start small and work our way up.
the radio
gas gauge,
volt meter
wrong transmission (claimed Muncie, was a Saginaw)
missing thermostat
parking lights on side
bent drive shaft
linkage rods which he told me were stiff from a new build but they were bent
clutch
pressure plate
the wrong flywheel was on there
carburetor was missing the choke flap carb was shot
There is more but I'm getting tired .. Now I know what you're thinking did he even look at it? I blame my so called expert as well but a little more disclosure on the salesmans part would have been nice ..
My bill is at 5500 right now and it's been in the shop since I bought it .. Dave asked me to see the bill so I sent it and no response , no surprise.. so here at autosport remember this la caveat emptor ,Let The Buyer Beware!'
If you're thinking of purchasing a car here, you better have a few thousand dollars extra to put into the car no matter what they tell you.

Dave Rico told my expert and myself that the car was a 454 LS6. That's why he was asking the money he was asking. After my mechanic was suspicious, he pulled off the valve cover, gave me the casting number, which showed that it was a 396. Pretty much anything he told me and my expert was a lie.
I been dealing with them for the past few years I can't ask anything better than this dealership around this area, all there cars are very clean I bought 07 350z from them and it was the best deal ever.
Excellent experience all around, gave me a great deal on a flawless Benz CLA250, I wouldn't hesitate to go back to them for future cars. Knowledgeable, fair, honest, and professional. Exactly how a dealer should be. Thank you
I had an excellent experience trading my Beetle for a Boxster. No pressure, no hassles. Excellent car buying experience. Since it was Saturday and it took an hour for the title to come in from Indiana, they even bought me lunch! On the ride home the check engine light came on. I called them back not expecting much help, but they offered to cover the fix. Luckily, my mechanic was able to reset the code and the car is fine. Just a dirty O2 sensor.
I bought a white 2005 Chevy Corvette off of Dave at AutoSport about a year and a half ago. They are a local dealership and I knew they always had nice Corvettes. I went down looking for a nice C6 and they had just what I wanted. I am really enjoying the car and can’t wait to get it out this summer. I did a couple of performance mods to the car and it really runs and sounds awesome! They also do detailing down there and I get it detailed at least twice a year. I would recommend these guys to anyone looking for a nice Corvette!
I bought a Plow Vehicle from Alex last year and it has been running great ever since. I have been making money off of it and I am very happy with it! I would recommend AutoSport to any one looking for a vehicle. They are a great group of guys!
I just bought a 2006 BMW M3 from AutoSport Co. I am from Maryland and I found the car online. Terry took my call on Superbowl Sunday and answered all of my questions. They were upfront and honest on everything about the car, both good and bad. We worked out the deal on the phone and I drove up the following day to get the car. Everything was as advertised and he let me take it to do a PPI at the location of my choice. Everything was smooth and he followed up after the sale to see how the ride back to Baltimore went (and it was great). I would do business here again and recommend to friends and family.
