Car Buying Concierge
The car you want, without the dealership Saturday
Pro Auto Consultant is a car buying concierge for Southern California. John Ricci spent about 30 years inside dealerships, including time as a Finance Director. Now he only works for buyers. You get a written out-the-door price. We handle the dealer, the trade-in if you add it, and the paperwork.

What a Car Buying Concierge Does
A car buying concierge works only for you. No dealer commissions. No kickbacks.
What’s Included
What We Do
Every engagement covers:
- Vehicle research and recommendations for the trim and options you want
- Inventory search across Southern California franchised dealers (and further when a specific build is scarce)
- Out-the-door price negotiation in writing
- Finance and lease term review
- Trade-in valuation and negotiation when you add it
- Contract review before you sign
How It Works
Three Simple Steps
You tell us the car, budget, and timeline.
We find it, negotiate, and handle the trade-in (if you add it) and the paperwork.
You approve and drive.
Who It's For
Busy professionals who do not want to spend a Saturday on the lot. First-time buyers who want someone who has sat on the other side of the desk. Luxury buyers who want the numbers clean before anyone talks about add-ons.
