Used BMW for sale in Ames, IA

My family have bought many new cars from here. We are actually looking at buying our first used car from this fantastic place. They always give my family fantastic discounts on new and used cars. Over I would recommend this place all day every day.

I LOVE it. I used to own a 2006 bmw and it was a huge upgrade for me to change into this one. It was more spacious, had eco / comfort AND sport

Very pleasant experience. Service representative was very friendly and the whole process was great.

Smallest SUV in the range and it still drives confidently. Plenty of power and torque from the turbo 4-cylinder. A very refined ride. Interior appointments remind you that you’ve bought a quality car.

Top notch service from start to finish. Drove my awesome Ford 550 from the lot straight to Georgia. Great super clean truck. Thank you for providing me with all I was looking for and then some! I strongly recommend certified auto sales as a first choice!

Generally people start out by saying they are expensive to maintain, just don't go to the dealership. In every City there is someone who specializes in BMW older models. 2500 miles is oil change time, not 5000 miles like dealership will tell you. I strongly believe the reason they tell you that is something will go wrong and you will be right back in there to fix a $3000 repair that normally would cost you $75 elsewhere, As this happened to me. At 100,000 miles, whether it needs it or not, REPLACE "VISA VALVE". This part sits on the side of the motor right at the oil stick. There's a light rattle sometimes when I start the car, then goes away. When it got bad enough, check engine light came on, it stopped in its tracks. It took my son one minute to take off 3 screws and replace. The part was $59.00 on Amazon! Dealership wanted $500 for the part and $300 to put it on. Car is good as new.

This car replaced an older BMW X5 that was stolen. I love how it handles in the snow. I swore I wouldn’t get another BMW but couldn’t beat the quality and price .

Riley J in sales was terrific. He helped us buy a used car from Lithia in Des Moines… while we were still living abroad in England… and then delivered it to us in Iowa City the day we returned. Totally amazing, above-and-beyond customer service.

My wife and I are very pleased with our BMW X3. I am impressed with the performance and the way it handles. I have owned and driven many autos this by far one of the very best.

I worked with Joe and Matt, buying a car with a limited income in a hurry due to my old one being destroyed when someone ran a stoplight. They couldnt have been more helpful and friendly, made me comfortable and I got a great deal, they handled the necessary repairs and services and almost two years later she still runs like a dream. I will definitely be making them my first stop for any other vehicle purchases. The atmosphere here is great.

This truck is my favorite car ever. I've had it for 5 years and put alot of money into it. Valve seals and gaskets, radiator, coolant pipe, battery, alternator, water pump, tires and brake pads and rotors. This is considered MAINTENANCE on a high performance luxury vehicle! Know this before you buy it! It's not a Honda! There expensive to own and maintain but I know what I signed up for and I'm happy.

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!!

This is the 3rd F30 3 series I have owned. It is the nicest, most comfortable, most powerful, and most fuel-efficient car I have owned.

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 car met my needs. It’s sleek, clean, and the performance handles nicely. I like the exterior and interior colors. The technical features are amazing as well.

Natthanial D. was the best salesman. He went above and beyond to provide excellent customer service. He was helpful, knowledgeable, truthful, kind, and made the car buying experience (which can be scary) very simple.

This vehicle has has taken my wife and me cross-country, as well as several other long distance trips, with a sum total of only one flat tire and no other mechanical, nor electrical issues at all! Any repairs have been moderate and frankly expected given the high number of miles (150,000 so far) on it. I expect to keep it for another year and a half.

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!

This is the third BMW I have purchased in the last three years. Ira treats me so well that I never even consider looking to anyone else but him to purchase. I have been in the real estate industry in the Des Moines area for the last 45 years and about 10 years ago I finally felt like I could afford to indulge my love of driving and buy a BMW,,,I have been hooked ever since and this is the 6th one I have bought. Every time I am in the dealership I try to talk Ira into coming to work for me because he is so good with people he would do tremendously well. So far I have not been able to talk him into it,,,lucky for you...he is a true gentleman and top notch in all the areas that represents your company and brand in the best possible way...sincerely Steve Smith

My purchase of a 2018 320i xdrive was my first BMW purchase. I can honestly say that I am addicted to the BMW driving experience. The quality, fit and finish, performance, and features are absolute top notch.

Carson was great to work with and took care of all the details. I felt they went above and beyond our expectations. Confident to recommend to friends/family

I purchased my BMW 330i from BMW Gwinnett and it hasn't disappointed . It's great on gas mileage and very sexy. I took the certified pre-own route in which I'd suggest to assure you're protecting your investment. The interior is sexy as well as the exterior. The ride is smooth as silk and the price is definitely doable. If you're in Georgia check out Tolli Poff at BMW Gwinnett. You won't be disappointed!

Love my X5! Gives us room we need to travel heavy! This vehicle is amazing. It is super comfortable and the technology is amazing. I am a super proud BMW owner!

I’ve been a Bmw owner (3 series, 6 series and 5 series) for roughly 15 years and I can’t describe the excitement when I get behind the wheel. Let’s face it, if you want a track car this isn’t for you. I suggest getting the M3 or M4 competition but if you are looking for comfort and absolute madness under the hood then you are looking at the right car.

Simply amazing car, breathtaking performance. I have owned many BMWs and M cars and this has set a new benchmark. The value is also very good for a car of this performance and quality level... stunning design and quality

I love the no hassle car buying experience and my salesman was a good guy that was a veterans car salesman. They took care of getting me set up with a second key very quickly and got me a great interest rate on my loan I quickly paid off within 6 months. I will shop there again and have sent many members of my family there!!

The X3 m40i is the best family vehicle. Got a decent deal from CarMax on a lightly used 2019 x3 m40i. The hk sound system sounds terrible unless you figure out how to turn off the exhaust sound that comes through the speakers (leaves little bass balance left for the music), but luckily there are a few tricks (check forums). The vehicle is a blast to drive, yet can carry the whole family and luggage anywhere. I had a few e36 m3's a while back and repairs were reasonable and easy to do a lot of stuff independently, so repair costs (only needed brakes, tires and oil in the past 30k miles) on the new BMWs did come as a bit of a shock, but being proactive helps. The vehicle has been super reliable with no mechanical issues.

Great experience - friendly employees, very efficient process from test drive, to getting my existing car a trade in value, to closing. Really liked that they had a tech sit in the new car and taught me how to use all the bells and whistles.

The 535d has style, comfort, power, and is fuel efficient ...what more could I ask for? It has the dual personality of a sports sedan and a luxury touring auto.

Planning a road trip to the Pacific Northwest starting Saturday. Tuesday evening noticed what appeared to be a transmission leak. Called Willis Wednesday morning about leak to see if they could schedule a last minute maintenance check. They asked me to bring DTS in and will see if they can look at it but no promises as they were booked out at least two weeks. Thursday morning they called and had diagnosed the problem, a bad water pump. Said they should be able to get it fixed late Thursday. Friday morning they called and informed me the repairs are completed and car is ready for the trip. Very much appreciated their assistance during these times when the techs are overwhelmed with jobs. They all came through for us, thank you.

This is the most comfortable, fastest / powerful, and technologically advanced car I've ever owned or driven. It is a 2016 and keeps up with the 2020 Mercedes that my partner just bought. The 7-series is due for a complete redesign, but I'm not sure they will top this model.

Service department is excellent. Very happy with the work.

I owned a bmw 530I 2005 and a 750i 2006, both new cars. This one is by far the best. Plenty of power, very spacious, excellent interior finish ( the off white merino is splendid). The car runs perfect after 62k miles, no issue, everything is OK. I enjoy each time when I drive it, looks like new after five years.

I wanted a Sunday drive for me and my wife. This car offered excellent balance between performance and comfort! We had amazing time every time we drove around the canyons and our staycations!
