Common questions
Who are the best car dealers in Charleston?
Of 68 graded dealers around Charleston, 31 percent earn an A. The list above is sorted best first. An A means a long record of happy buyers and very few one or two star reviews. Filter by A to see only those.
How many car dealers around Charleston get an F?
10 percent of graded dealers here, against 16 percent across all 109 metros we cover. An F means a heavy share of past buyers left one or two stars.
Why are some dealers not graded?
A grade needs 20 or more public reviews. 31 lots in this area have fewer, so they are listed with their address and phone but not graded yet.
Can you inspect a car at a Charleston dealership?
