Our Clients Love Us
Our reputation speaks for itself. We work hard every day to keep our customers happy.
Brian is amazing. I explained my situation and my wish list to him, he asked some poignant questions, and settled on the first car he showed me. I couldn’t find better (and I tried!), and I certainly couldn’t find a more trustworthy dealer. I wholeheartedly recommend Brian and Good Cars Only. ME

Brian has great integrity, warmth, kindness, and his customer service sets the highest standard in the automotive industry. There are very few companies that I have encountered that offer a good old-fashioned "Customer is King" philosophy, but Brian Velenosi and his Good Cars Only company live that cherished motto every day. He makes a customer feel special, and his warmth and genuine character are rare commodities these days. Thank you, Brian, for the best cars and the 100% reassurance that you stand behind your product and your customers.

Customer Testimonial
If I could rate higher than 5 stars I would. Owner is honest, and caring. I’ve worked in customer service for 10 years, and I’ve never encountered someone with such high standards for their clients. Even if you’re unsure, stop by. Well worth your time.

Happy Customer
Brian at GoodCarsOnly was amazing! He was helpful from the very start — not pushy at all, super friendly, and even lent us a car for a full day while they were safetied ours. The price was great for an excellent vehicle, no complaints at all. We also had a code pop up after purchase. I called Brian and he took the car back the same day to fix it, and even provided a loaner so I could still get to work. The staff and owner are incredible, and their integrity really shows. If I could give them 10 stars, I absolutely would! Highly recommend GoodCarsOnly.

I've never written a review for a car dealership, but Bryan deserves one. We had the BEST experience with him. Very friendly, honest and will work with you. The vehicles are fairly priced. I would definitely go back to him in the future!

Good Cars Only came highly recommended from another business in town and now I know why--THEY ARE THE BEST!!! Brian is the easiest and most low stress salesperson I've dealt with--professional, experienced, kind, honest and respectful--which is not always the case unfortunately...I would give him more stars if I could and absolutely recommend this family business! You can tell this is his passion and he genuinely wants to help out--and is a straight shooter...His daughter Natasha also works there and was super helpful, enthusiastic and put me at ease...all around great experience, Thank you!! Will definitely be back!!

I have purchased vehicles from Brian and have my car and my wifes Honda only repaired and serviced from Brian. Bought a Hyundai SUV from Brian and told him I needed it to last a couple years as it has high mileage. He said no problem the car is great and it has been. 3 yrs and over 70 K i put on it and runs like a top when it finally goes I will be back to Brian for another !

In this fast-paced and at times impersonal world, one rarely encounters a company like Good Cars Only and its owner Brian Velenosi. I have had the honor and pleasure of knowing Brian for 25+ years.
I was introduced to Brian through a business associate at K-Lite FM/CKOC/CHAM where I was Director of Marketing for 17 years. I was in the market for a pre-owned Corvette, and Brian found the best one in Ontario — if not the world. Everything I asked for and more. So much more.
Brian serviced the car and, eventually, when I moved to Toronto for a new radio job, he even helped me find a new owner at a great price. He made buying a car a fun and happy experience on every level.
A month ago, I reconnected with Brian after buying a Muskoka cottage and told him I wanted a Cadillac to get me back and forth to my dream home. Well, today, I just bought my second Good Cars Only vehicle from Brian — 20 years later!
Brian has great integrity, warmth, kindness, and his customer service sets the highest standard in the automotive industry. There are very few companies that I have encountered that offer a good old-fashioned "Customer is King" philosophy, but Brian Velenosi and his Good Cars Only company live that cherished motto every day.
