  • Jim Whitney
    Sales Manager - Pre-Owned
    480. 994. 9000

    Although I am originally from New York City, it has been a pleasure living in Arizona since 1966. Ever since I sold my 1st car in 1969, I guess you can say that the automotive industry has been the life that I share with my loved ones. Aside from my focus on customer service and the automotive industry, my passion is collecting fine and historical timepieces. The only thing that surpasses my passion for collecting timepieces is the admiration that I have for precision engineered Porsche vehicles. I am proud to be able to represent such a prestigious and well-respected company such as Porsche Chandler.

    Originally, I'm from Toledo, Ohio but later I moved to Arizona in 1978. While growing up in the city of Mesa, I remember always loving fast cars and dreaming of owning a Porsche 911 just like the one on the poster I had pinned to my bedroom wall. My parents owned a small dealership and I myself have been involved in the automotive industry since 1993. After a long day, I enjoy going home and spending time with my two dogs and my pet tortoise.

    Porsche Brand Ambassador
    480. 994. 9000

    Before transitioning my life to Porsche Sales, I spent the past 4 years being the Lead Porsche Pro/Genius. I feel joy by helping a family, a new owner, and even new entrepreneurs help achieve their goals of owning a Porsche. Nothing is more exhilarating that seeing people's face light up for the first time, when I hand them their new keys to their very own Porsche. In my spare time, I prefer to be an outdoorsy soul; hiking, paintballing, movies, kayaking, biking, etc.
