About North Mountain Car Co
Giving People & Small Businesses Access to Wholesale Prices
North Mountain Car Co is a buyer's-side concierge for vehicle sourcing. We bridge the gap between the closed world of dealer auctions and the people who should have access to it.
Meet the CEO
Tom Velonis
CEO & Licensed Broker
Tom Velonis founded North Mountain Car Co to open the wholesale car market to the people who've been locked out of it for decades — everyday buyers and small businesses.
As a licensed dealer and broker, Tom built a buyer's-side concierge that cuts out the lot overhead, sales commissions, and retail markups that inflate every price tag. His model is simple: you tell us the car, we source it at wholesale, and you pay a flat fee — nothing hidden.
Tom leads every sourcing partnership and dealer relationship personally, making sure each client gets the same access he'd want for his own family.
The problem we solve
Every year, millions of quality used vehicles trade hands at wholesale auctions — Manheim, ADESA, and dealer-only networks. The pricing at these auctions is consistently thousands below retail. But there's a catch: you need a dealer license to participate.
That means regular buyers are locked out of the best pricing in the market. They're forced to shop retail, where dealer overhead, lot costs, sales commissions, and F&I markups inflate every price tag.
North Mountain Car Co changes that. As a licensed dealer ourselves, we give you access to wholesale auction pricing. You tell us the exact vehicle you want. We source it through channels most buyers can't access. You save thousands — and you never set foot on a dealership lot.
We charge a single, flat concierge fee on top of wholesale cost. That's it. No hidden charges, no commission-driven salespeople. Just a straightforward service that puts the buyer first — whether you source through us or shop our Phoenix lot.
A licensed dealership — not just a middleman
North Mountain Car Co is a licensed, bonded dealership on North Cave Creek Rd in Phoenix, AZ. That dealer license is what makes wholesale access possible — it gives us direct entry into the auction networks and wholesale markets that are closed to the public.
We hold active dealer licenses, are bonded, and maintain all required state registrations for vehicle transactions — and we finance all credit types.
What we stand for
Radical transparency
You see the wholesale price. You see our fee. Every dollar is accounted for. We believe transparency isn't a feature — it's the baseline.
Buyer's side only
We don't carry inventory. We don't have cars to push. We work for you and only you. That's the concierge model.
Licensed & legitimate
All vehicle sourcing is conducted through our licensed, bonded dealer partner with full access to wholesale auctions nationwide.
Nationwide selection
We source from dealer auctions and wholesale networks across the country — and deliver locally across the Phoenix area.
