Indy Auto Man

What Indy Auto Man does

Indy Auto Man is a privately held used vehicle dealership founded in 2008 by Eugene Gorin and headquartered in Indianapolis, Indiana. The company operates two physical dealership locations — the original site at 4031 South East Street in Indianapolis and a second location at 17230 Foundation Pkwy in Westfield, Indiana, opened in February 2026 — with 24 service bays across both sites. It sells 2,000+ pre-owned vehicles per year from a multi-brand inventory spanning Ford, Chevrolet, GMC, RAM, BMW, Mercedes-Benz, and other makes, including sedans, trucks, SUVs, vans, hybrids, and electric vehicles.

The core technology is a proprietary dynamic pricing engine that continuously adjusts vehicle values based on hyperlocal market conditions and notifies customers of price changes via email. The company operates a 100% online purchase channel with free delivery within 250 miles and nationwide door-to-door shipping, supported by a CARFAX-based vehicle history offering and a 30-day price match guarantee. December 2025 brought a partnership with EVready Energy to install public DC fast EV charging stations at the Westfield site.

The business model combines one-time used vehicle sales with transaction-fee revenue from a finance department that works with 25+ banks and credit unions (including subprime and bankruptcy-friendly lenders) plus professional services revenue from the service and tire-care departments. Ancillary income includes protection plans, a documentary fee of $251.05, a title fee of $37.50, and a $10 Dealer Services Network fee per transaction. Customer acquisition is sales-led via physical showrooms and an online storefront, amplified by a 6,500+ Google review reputation, a multi-channel social presence, content marketing, and a referral program.
