Used cars for sale in Ames, IA

Brad Ernst did a great job! So did Alexander in financing. Thanks for helping me purchase my vehicle later on in the day and staying later to make it happen!

When I decided I wanted a minivan I knew I wanted a Honda. Its spacious, comfortable, has plenty of options and runs great. My only complaint is the gas mileage.

Awesome service, even better smile;) Walker helped me find the perfect car to fit my needs. He explained everything and made sure I left confident with my purchase.

I absolutely love my new car. Great design, great on gas, love the color I chose. This car and dealership here in Forest City NC are the best.

Aleks and George , team up in a wonderful and professional way to get us the best deal , happy wife happy life , thanks guys

I can tow 7700 pounds and haul 7 passengers. Sure the 3rd row seat is small, but so are kids, who would be riding back there anyway. Way better value than a Suburban- and does almost all the same things only better- if you need to tow something large, you have to consider this option. The interior finishings are truly German Luxury.

Brad was straight forward, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. He showed me various cars in an efficient manner, wasn't pushy, and streamlined the purchasing process.

I bought my 2018 Honda HRV new with only 53 miles on it and while I was very hesitant initially to get a new car (because depreciation) it was definitely the best decision for me. The car is comfortable to drive, gets great gas mileage, and has been very relatable over the last 5 years. I’ve put new tires on and changed the oil and standard maintenance items. The absolute worst thing I can say is I wish it wasn’t manual seat adjustments, I have the base model.

It took some time to get the price I wanted, but I’m the end I think we got to a great price and I was able to drive away with the vehicle I wanted for the price I wanted. I will buy my next Audi here!

Love my Audi Q5!! It’s the Best car I have ever owned. Great on highways with a ultra smooth ride. Great gas mileage and love love the interior. Sunroof is to die for (it spans the whole ceiling) It has great trunk storage (both back seats fold down) that can hold a lot!! Furniture, tables, etc. I have had mine for 7 years. It’s a forever car!!

The car is gorgeous but the dealership did not take good care of it nor provided proper teaching to any of its clients about how to maintain it. They just sold it and did oil changes but did not diagnose it correctly and even with the warranty did not do the right things to repair the car or treated us fairly. They are not trustworthy. The car is gorgeous and comfortable.

I bought this car in 2019, I was very fortunate to found it, never gave me a problem, I still have it, it is extremely economic, comfortable, roomy, I love my car, I did fall in love the first time I saw it, thank you Nissan for making this awesome car, I will keep it forever 🙏

I have owned the original X3 and followed up with this model. The second generation is certainly a few steps above as far as comfort, style and driving performance. 2012 is the last year the 28i is powered by the 3.0L inline 6. Acceleration is great after getting the software update. Prior to it, I had the aggravating slow response met with a rush of acceleration. The software update has smoothed out the throttle greatly. The ride is super comfortable for day to day as well as trips. I have taken this car on long trips a few times this year and it is great on gas, very comfortable seats and great visibility. It is easy to park and has a tight turning circle. The handling feels like the 3 series sedan! Going up and down hills and mountainsides feels secure. Feature wise, I fully recommend the backup camera and parking sensors as well as the heated seats/steering wheel. Cargo space is adequate for this class and three average sized adults can fit in the backseat comfortably. I will say that BMW has this peculiar way of stripping the cars down in the past 10 years and labeling it as "customization." You notice the small things such as no puddle lights on my particular car, as well as having to get packages for an improved interior/exterior. Another example is if you do not get the Navigation, you do not get the nicely done, upscale graphics on the speedometer area. You have to add leather, a sunroof, heated seats, etc. My older BMW's had a lot of these more common features standard. If you buy this car used, be sure to pay attention to the features and how it was optioned. Overall, the car has been very reliable and a joy to drive!

Ive driven 43,000 miles. Runs and drives great. Love the 10 spd transmission for towing. Only issue was a faulty clock spring for heated steer wheel. Under warranty. Has the 6.2 ltr motor

They were so helpful and so polite and was willing to assist me in all my stressful wants of a used or new vehicle. I can't wait to go back and pick out the beauty I want..

THIS CAR IS PERFECTLY FOR A BEGGINERS, SPORTY PLENTY ROOM FOR FUN AND IN EXCELLENT CONDITIONS. JUST NEED A TRUCK NOW THAT AM OLDER AND HAVE RESPONSABILITIES.

Joe bisignano is a good salesman. He took care of the repairs that needed done after my purchase. Credit application was easy and expedient. Facility was clean and organized.

this truck is tough, and is so reliable that my mechanic is surprised to see me my motorcycles and trucks and my SUV,s have to be reliable, or i dont own them Honda motorcycles, a Nissan suv and my chevy silverado 2500hd cheers!

They made the buying experience great for me as a first time car buyer. Couldn’t ask for more personal people and better service. Ask for joe when you get there.

I already owned this vehicle when I took it in for service. But. I love the vehicle. I haven't had any major problems with my Jeep Summit

My best car buying experience so far. I Would definitely come back to purchase in the future. I got my Malibu I wanted at the price I wanted. Thanks Efkamp!

My last one was at 262000 miles and still going strong until I totaled it. Drove it on long trips all over. I loved the AWD. Wish I had another one.

Great the people were awesome the deal went smooth I only spent about 1 1/2 hours in the dealership and left with a new 2500 Chevy.

Hey guys! I have an excellent 2017 F150 XLT with the V8 5.0. Had this truck ever since it came out and been with it since. I reached over 321,000k miles in the truck and it’s still in great condition. It is used as a daily and a work truck. So far, the V8 5.0 hasn’t gave me problems from the start. Same goes with everything else if you take care of it. Overall, I highly recommend this to anyone who’s interested in trucks.

Had a great car buying experience with Brahim Bouhaik. From the test drive to finding the vehicle with the features I desired, he was awesome to work with. He kept me informed and answered all my questions in a timely manner. Would highly recommend him as a salesperson.

I love my jeep Sahara I put a 2in lift in it and 20 in rims with 35 in wide tires , I took it on a 5000 mile road trip it did great on the highway and over the mountains of Colorado I hit a lot of snow and rain on the trip to the west coast and back to Oklahoma I loved the drive it does not drive like a sport car but better then my work truck does , for the whole trip I avg 20 miles to the gal even with the over size tires on it and the off road is just what you think a jeep would be , if you want a good on and off road then I say this is a good jeep for you

BMW of Des Moines gets five stars from us! Our client advisor, Calvin Conley, made the buying process a very smooth process from beginning to end. He was extremely genuine, helpful, and professional – never hesitated to go the extra mile. When we walked on the lot, he gave us a warm, non-salesy welcome, and immediately made us feel at home. The more time we spent talking with him, the more we knew he was the right client advisor for us! He was more than accommodating with our search requirements (make/model/trim/etc.). He even searched online for a vehicle that fit our family’s needs. Once the right match became available at BMW of Des Moines, he was very prompt about getting us a test drive immediately. After doing our homework and shopping around, we knew the deal we needed to make things work for our family. At no time did we have to go to the mat to get that deal – the best news, we didn’t even have to meet the sales manager (I’m sure they were very lovely of course)! Calvin did his due diligence throughout the negotiation process to help alleviate any additional headaches for us. He found a way to make the deal work in our favor and we couldn’t have asked for much more than that. Not only did we get to leave BMW of Des Moines with an incredible certified pre-owned BMW x5, but we left knowing it was a win-win for everyone. Calvin’s relaxed, no-pressure personality made us enjoy the car buying experience. And his multiple years of knowledge and experience at BMW of Des Moines was far superior to that of the salesmen we encountered at other dealerships. Before we drove the vehicle off the lot, he walked us through the ins and outs of the new x5 from bumper to bumper, synced our phone for us, and show us how to work other important features that were new to us. He was very patient throughout the entire process – even stayed late after the dealership closed to do so!! In addition, the finance manager, Greg Pingel, and the rest of the staff at BMW of Des Moines were so kind and welcoming. Greg was extremely helpful and accommodating through the paperwork process. And the rest of the staff went out of their way to assure us we made a great purchase, gave us the history on the vehicle (specifically how the previous owner was very exceptional about taking care of their vehicle and treated it as such!), shared with the previous owner that their car was going to a good family, and made us feel at home. Calvin has been great about making himself available for all of our after-purchase questions as well. I honestly can’t wait to take my car in for an oil change (#saidnooneever) so I can see everyone again! Thank you, Calvin and the entire staff at BMW of Des Moines!

This is my 6th BMW, love the feel and handling. Would not drive anything else! It is fantastic! Love it! Every day, can’t wait to drive it!

What a huge thanks to Dalton Matt, He was so helpful and encouraging. He got me with my dream vehicle. Thank you very much Dalton.

This SUV accelerates like a sports car. The exterior and interior styling is eye catching. I have only owned it for 3 days and at least 4 people have made positive comments.

Way to go BMW for having amazing sales staff Dalton Matt. He was able to meet all of our needs and get my daughter into the car she fell in love with. If you need a kind, honest and personable car salesman, Dalton Matt is the guy!!

Bought a new truck and it's awesome. The cleaning people did a great job and it was immaculate and the sales staff was very fast and prompt at getting me into the vehicle and out the door. No long wait it was wonderful. Thanks to everybody at Bob Brown Chevrolet.

I bought a 2020 WT Crew Cab with power amenities and chrome/color bumpers and upgraded to leather seats for $24,000. It has been a great truck. I regularly get 24-28 mpg with the V6 (simply by watching acceleration). It does everything I want; towing/hauling and just general running about. Love the Apple CarPlay. This is the best value truck that I have owned. Solidly reliable. No complaints.

Excellent selection of quality used vehicles. Priced very fairly, but low-balled big time when wanting to sell them my current vehicle to the tune of nearly 20% below KBB trade-in value.

This vehicle met all of my needs. Excellent handling in the snow with the Snow setting. It’s a great car to drive in the summer as well. Dual sunroof and cooled seats.
