Joe Thompson (sales)

Hello, my name is Joe Thompson. I have been with Bachman Volkswagen for over 5 years and have Volkswagen Master Certified status with the company. This means, when someone has a question about a Volkswagen, they come to me. I am from Louisville, but have traveled around the country to various cities, the most recent was Huntsville, Alabama, where I got into the car business just after college and have remained ever since, dedicated to the Volkswagen brand. I moved back to Louisville to be closer to family and old friends. I chose Bachman to be the dealership for me after careful consideration. The excellent customer service and the laid back approach to selling cars was a perfect fit to my laid back attitude, though some would say too laid back. I have been successful, making Salesman of the Year my second year at Bachman and Salesman of the Month several times. I am not a pushy guy and I am only here for information and to help with a purchase, not sell you a car.


I look forward to meeting new people and have a love for cars. I am 39 and have had over 20 cars of many different makes and models. I like to Autocross and I am a member of the Sports Car Club of America (SCCA). We have meets at the parking lots of Papa John's Cardinal Stadium and UPS. Going to these events allows me to see up close the performance side of many makes and models, including the VW GTI. I like the outdoors and going to the lake for weekend excursions with family and friends. I also like to take my motorcycle on rides through the country, but I mostly enjoy the slow pace of just relaxing at home.

If you are reading this and want to know more, just come and see me! I hope to see you soon!
