Why We Are Different

As the owner of Auto Connections of Bellevue, my goal is to be your trusted advocate in the car-buying process — not just another salesperson.  Early in my career, while working at a traditional dealership, I quickly discovered two important things: I truly enjoyed helping people find the right car, but I couldn't stand the high-pressure, manipulative sales tactics that were standard practice.

I Knew There Had to Be a Better Way

I believed I could succeed by doing what I loved — but doing it the right way: with honesty, integrity, and genuine respect for the customer. I'm proud to say that over the years, I’ve built not only a successful business, but also meaningful, lasting relationships with many of my customers. In fact, a number of them have become good friends, often returning for their second or third purchase.  So if you’re feeling overwhelmed by the typical car-buying experience — or simply don’t have the time or desire to chase down the “right” deal — give me a call.  And don’t just take my word for it — check out a few of our customer testimonials and see for yourself.

Thank you, Stu Cordova

          ** AUTO CONNECTIONS GIVING CAMPAIGN **             

Since 1997, Auto Connections of Bellevue has proudly donated to local nonprofit organizations with every vehicle sold. For each purchase, we make a contribution to one of three community partners: Youth Eastside Services, Homeward Pet Adoption Center, or Katie’s Comforters Guild.

You buy a car — and we send them a check. It’s that simple.  It’s our way of giving back, showing appreciation for your business, and making a positive impact together.

Learn more about the organizations we support:

          Katie’s Comforters Guild at Seattle Children’s Hospital was founded in memory of Katie Gerstenberger, who passed away from cancer in 2007 at the age of 12 and a half. Katie took great comfort all through her many months of treatment from the simple quilt that her mother made for her, and that is their inspiration. The Guild’s goal is to have a handmade blanket waiting for each child who arrives at Seattle Children’s Hospital, to bring immediate comfort and warmth into the hospital experience. They sew, knit, crochet and make fleece blankets, and would love to have you join them. Give them a call!

          Youth Eastside Services is a leading provider of youth substance abuse and mental health counseling services in the region. Since 1968, YES has been a lifeline for kids and families, offering treatment, education and prevention services to help youth become healthy, confident and self-reliant - and families to become strong, supportive and loving.

          Homeward Pet Adoption Center is a non-profit, no-kill animal shelter. Their mission is to give homeless animals a second chance through rescue, shelter, and adoption. With a staff of just 25 full and part-time employees and nearly 400 volunteers, many of the rescued animals who come to Homeward Pet get more love and attention than they’ve ever known before!  And thanks to the generous, ongoing support of donors, sponsors and partners, the shelter continues to grow and improve. Drop by for a visit and get to know them even better.
