I highly recommend working with Eric to buy a car. The whole process was super easy and low stress, he got me the perfect car, and it was a joy to work with him. Don't think I will ever go to a dealership now if I can help it, this was so much nicer. 10/10!

I highly recommend Eric Holdsworth @ Portside Auto. My girlfriend has bought a couple vehicles from him and suggested I use his services to purchase a vehicle as well. I've always used larger dealerships and had some hesitations going to a more personal dealer. I thought I might feel more pressured to say yes to a vehicle that I may not truly want. Eric never made me feel that way and in fact, after giving him a fairly specific vehicle request, he found me the perfect vehicle at the fight price first try. Eric has in depth knowledge of autos and the buying process and he also made the purchase process very smooth. I'd highly recommend Portside Auto to anyone looking for a vehicle purchase.

I have purchased fourteen automobiles from Eric over the years, both personally and for my companies. I have also referred many family members and friends to Eric, all of whom have thanked me for introducing them to an ethical, trustworthy, hard working, intelligent and customer service-oriented car expert who makes the car buying experience a satisfying one. He serves as your agent, working on your behalf, scouting the market for the right car at the right price. And best of all, he makes sure that you know he is there after the sale to insure that everything is working as you expect, fully standing by his service.

I've bought a few cars from Eric. Every time he has been extremely easy going, very professional and fair. I would definitely recommend buying your next used car from him.

We bought a Subaru from Eric last summer. The whole experience was very pleasant, until the car didn't pass inspection for problems related to the ($1000) catalytic converter. Eric had his mechanic look at it and "fix" it. What that meant is that it passed inspection. Weeks later, we had to fix it for real. This summer, the front catalytic converter ($800) is going. That may be Subaru's fault, not Portside Auto's, but we have paid through the nose for this car, and the whole thing with the first cat smacked of shadiness.

I just bought my third car (late '16 Ford Escape) from Eric - to order, no less - I wanted a specific color and it had to have SYNC3. He got it. The last one (Honda Element, four years ago) took a while to find...but it was a stick shift, y'know? But he got exactly what I was looking for, each time. Easy, straightforward, and no car salesman b*llsh*t. Highly recommended.

We've bought at least five vehicles from Eric - trucks, Camrys, a Lexus - and they've all been great. The best car buying experience ever!

Recently had a great experience buying a van from Eric. He was very friendly, fair and very knowledgeable.
