JOE BOWMAN AUTO PLAZA NOW IN Staunton

Home of The Statler Brothers, the Heifetz Institute, and the Woodrow Wilson Presidential Library, Staunton VA residents know the many benefits of working with Joe Bowman Auto Plaza.

It’s the reason we have kept so many repeat customers in our long history. Staunton, VA residents know that when you buy a car, truck, or SUV from our dealership, it comes with a commitment to safe, stylish, and reliable transportation, as well as excellent customer service.

Because we live in a rural mountain area of Virginia, reliable transportation is a must! That’s why Staunton and Augusta Country residents turn to Joe Bowman Auto Plaza.

Whether you’re going to work, driving the kids to school, or planning a road trip, you need a vehicle that fits your lifestyle. At Joe Bowman Auto Plaza, we sell both brand new Chevys, as well as quality pre-owned cars, trucks, and SUV’s.

With all of our new vehicles, you’ll get Chevrolet's new car warranty. Plus, two maintenance appointments for the first two years you own your vehicle, or 24,000 miles.

For our pre-owned car buyers, we also take great pride in only selling quality pre owned vehicles. That’s why every used vehicle we sell must pass the 75-point used car inspection checklist, or we won’t sell it!

Our mechanics thoroughly go over the vehicle. If there are any issues, they are corrected immediately. In short, our used cars, trucks, and SUV’s must be mechanically sound, and every feature on the vehicle must work beautifully, to be listed for sale.

We back up our commitment to selling quality used vehicles with a 30 or 90-day warranty, depending on the vehicle’s mileage. 

If, after the sale, your vehicle has a mechanical problem we were not aware of, we will work diligently to solve that problem!

Buying a new or quality used vehicle shouldn’t be a hassle. And with our extensive network of local lenders and large banking institutions, it isn’t. We can find financing that fits your budget, even if you have had past credit problems.

With Joe Bowman Auto Plaza, if your credit history is poor, we look for lenders that will offer you the best possible interest rate to help you build equity. 

Not sure where to start with auto financing? Check your credit rating on our site and then get pre-qualified!

Another big plus in working with us is your ability to buy your car online, new or pre-owned. With our Shop.Click. Drive service, you can scroll through our inventory of cars, trucks, and SUV’s, choose the one you want, then reserve it.

You are under no obligation to take the car until you sign for it. In fact, when you drive from Staunton to our dealership, if you find another vehicle you like better, we can make the switch for you.

When you’re ready to buy, you’re ready to get rid of your old vehicle. You can certainly list it for sale in the Staunton News Leader or in other auto buying publications, but it could take a while for it to sell.

With Joe Bowman Auto Plaza’s MAXX Advantage program, you can either sell us your car outright or trade it in. Simply check the Kelley Blue Book Cash Offer page on our site. Once you find out what your vehicle is worth, bring it in to the dealership.

After we verify the condition of the car and its features, and it meets our standard for quality, we’ll buy it from you at a fair price, writing you a check on the spot.

Alternatively, if you’d rather trade-in your car, we will always give you a fair trade-in offer. Either way, we’ll handle all of the paperwork.

The service doesn’t stop once you’ve bought your vehicle from us. As a Joe Bowman Auto Plaza customer, you also receive:

• Courtesy transportation when your vehicle is in for service

• FREE lifetime car inspections

• Preferred service scheduling

At Joe Bowman Auto Plaza, we make it easy for Staunton and Augusta County residents to do business with us over and over again.
