Local Hurricane, West Virginia resident, and owner of “ the fairly odd”, Premier

"Today's budget minded, highly informed & frustrated consumer simply does not like the normal process of shopping for vehicles. We provide a CONSUMER CONTROLLED atmosphere that is completely different then what your used to.  Let us change your mind about used car dealers?" -James & Kara Davis- Owners

Pre-Owned LLC, James Davis, as well as their Operations Manager, Preston Kelly would like to thank the local community and beyond for the relationships they have developed during the past 4+ years. Premier Pre-Owned LLC, located at 2855 Main St. in downtown Hurricane, West Virginia officially opened on June 1st, 2006. After nearly a decade of working as a Salesman, Finance Manager, New Car Sales Manager and finally, the General Sales Manager for Courts Chrysler, Dodge, & Jeep in Hurricane, West Virginia, James envisioned opening a pre-owned car dealership that actually was the exact opposite, in many ways, compared to most of the local car dealers. Premier Pre-Owned seems to truly understand what all car dealerships should.......” Today's highly informed consumer is clearly tired of the process auto dealers have made all too familiar.”

Premier’s Operations Manager and Poca, West Virginia native Preston Kelly, is a U.S. Air Force Veteran and a former professional firefighter in South Charleston, West Virginia.  Preston deciding to leave the fires behind and join the “little odd dealer in Hurricane” and has enjoyed the “consumer controlled” atmosphere that Premier Pre-Owned provides. When asked, Preston admits “It is actually a fun place to work when you are not expected to “close” every deal, get a commitment, or pressure someone into buying right now. The owner, James, always says “be honest, sell a good impression, not just a used car, and if a customer doesn’t buy, they might come back and buy something down the road if they felt comfortable, and felt like you were honest with them”. Preston added… “After years of thinking the car business was all about talking people into buying right now, it is very odd to me to allow the consumer to control the shopping process, but I can definitely see the value in it. The look on people’s faces are pretty interesting when they actually feel comfortable and in control”.

Furthermore, Premier also decided to offer a unique selection of mostly import or unique domestic vehicles priced UNDER $9995 and/or UNDER $199 A MONTH! A large part of Premier Pre-Owned success in the past three plus years is the “ odd tactic” of actually letting aggravated customers look freely, gather info without being hassled, and giving upfront clear and honest information (good or bad) . Premier enjoys success by not being overly aggressive, and having ultra clean, reliable, and good looking, imports, sports cars, unique domestics, SUV's and 4x4's priced UNDER $9995.

Premier Pre-Owned typically stocks 20-30 of these types of vehicles with ASKING prices marked clearly on the windshield, very unique & convenient "clear plastic weather-proof tubes" attached to each drivers window that houses hassle-free “ take home information sheets”. This “ Odd Approach” was designed for consumers who want to look & gather information without being approached by a salesman. The "no salesman needed" information sheet includes a photo of the vehicle, full list of options, critical Carfax vehicle history information & mileage. Premier even offers a place to fill out a simple form after hours to make a silent "best offer" without being ran through the typical dealer process! Premier encourages everyone to come and look at their ultra clean selection of vehicles without being bothered. Please don’t be offended if you are not approached by someone at Premier’s facility located about a mile off of the Hurricane exit (#34) of I-64. Their entire inventory is unlocked during normal business hours and the odd choice by Premiers staff not to approach is actually a welcome change.

Premier provides all customers who are interested a full complimentary Carfax vehicle history report, complimentary Kelly Blue Book estimated values, complimentary N.A.D.A estimated values, and a Gaurdian Warranty Corporation (Largest Warranty Provider In The U.S.) color brochure detailing the complimentary      3 MONTH OR 4500 MILE warranty pre-paid by Premier Pre-Owned. Premier’s entire inventory is available for viewing on popular consumer based websites such as, Autotrader.Com, Cars.Com, NADA.Com, & Kelly Blue Book.Com as well as bi-weekly full color ad’s on the front page of the Kanawha-Putnam Ad Mailer. Premier Pre-Owned proudly offers multiple local banks financing as low as $0 DOWN & 3.5% APR on used vehicles based on approved credit. James, his wife, Kara, Preston & our entire staff would like to express their gratitude to the local community for their trust and look forward to many years “selling good impressions” instead of just used cars. This type of “ ODD BEHAVIOR” out of a car dealer is a welcome change for the aggravated shopper.
