 I have lived all my life in WNC and never found a reason to leave which is why Hunter Automotive seemed to be a good fit for me. It helps me meet new people around the community or those that have just moved here looking for their next vehicle. Before this, I sold-and still sell-snakes as a hobby. I'm fortunate enough to be able to pursue both of my passions at once and enjoy every minute of it. So if you have questions about some cars (or reptiles) just ask for the goth girl when you come to visit us!
