Our Story
A Legacy Built on Every Mile
AttkissonAutos was founded in 1996 by James Attkisson, an automotive expert who believed that buying a car should be simple, honest, and accessible to everyone.
Starting with a modest lot of 12 vehicles in downtown Metropolis, James built a reputation for transparency and quality that still defines us today.
Over the decades, we've grown into a full-service dealership — offering hand-picked inventory, flexible financing solutions, and a comprehensive service centre — all under one roof.
Founded by James Attkisson with a small showroom and a big vision.
Expanded to our current flagship location in central Metropolis.
Launched our certified pre-owned program with 150-point inspections.
Introduced affordable hybrid & fuel-efficient options to the lot.
Surpassed 8,000 happy clients and opened our full-service centre.
