If you’re looking for a dealership where you can spend thousands of dollars repairing a vehicle that probably should never have been sold in the first place, this is the place to go. I understand that I purchased this used vehicle as-is and declined a warranty and I never expected a 12-year-old car to be perfect. What I did not expect was to have to spend thousands of dollars just to make it safe and reliable enough to drive after owning it for only a matter of hours. Twenty minutes after purchasing the vehicle, I experienced mechanical problems. When I contacted the owner immediately, he told me he “might be able to help with the cost since I had just bought it.” Unfortunately, that was the last meaningful communication I received. I sent emails, messages through the dealership website, Facebook Marketplace, the business Facebook page, a formal written demand, and even filed complaints with several Missouri agencies. Despite all of those efforts, I never received a response from the dealership to any of my written communications. To me, the complete lack of accountability and communication after the sale told me all I needed to know. I would never recommend anyone give their hard earned money to this business but, if you’re options are that limited and you’re considering buying here, have the vehicle independently inspected before purchase, don’t rely on verbal assurances from anyone associated with this place.

Called to check on the mirage talked to the guy can't remember his name but he was freindly and helpful about info on the car.

I visited kind of skeptical because of bad used car experiences in the past . All I can say is WOW ! Very nice staff and the environment was very welcoming . The vehicle was better than expected and they worked with me on the price even when there wasn’t much to pick at . 5 Starts from me !

Awesome experience. Cody was professional and easy to deal with. I came from about 45 miles away and he knew what time I would arrive to look at it and take it for a test drive. Cody was honest and very straightforward with me.
