Great, reliable car
I bought my 2012 Sonic used in 2014 with 30,000-ish miles on it. It's getting ready to turn 200,000 and going strong with no major work needed. I've done routine maintenance and replaced the battery once. That's it! I'm a happy customer :)

Had a great experience at JDM!
Had a great experience at JDM! I initally thought the prices were a bit high, but once Jasper explained all the services and work that had already been done on the car, I felt much more confident in the value he was super helpful, patient, and made the car buying process smooth and stress-free. Rose in finance was also amazing and helped me get into a car. Highly recommend JDM if you're looking for great service and a team that really cares!

A ton of inventory with excellent prices and excellent staff. They had quite a few options fitting what I was looking for with great prices! Will be back for my next one.
This car saved my life!
I had my Sonic for 8 years, and lost her to a T-bone collision. I was hit by a small SUV going about 60 mph. It took EMTs 30 minutes and the Jaws of Life to free me from the wreckage. The only severe injury I had was a broken left fibula. Not shattered, just a trauma break. My Ortho was amazed! He actually asked me about the car, so he could look into it for his teenager. He said that type of crash usually results in multiple breaks and shattering on the side of impact. He told me that I am incredibly lucky and that my Sonic is 100% the reason I am not paralyzed or worse! I would recommend to anyone with safety concerns!

I recently purchased a car and had an outstanding
I recently purchased a car and had an outstanding experience working with Leo. From start to finish, he was fantastic—professional, friendly, and incredibly communicative. He kept us informed every step of the way and made sure we always knew exactly what was happening. What really stood out was how willing he was to work with us to get the deal we wanted. He listened carefully, addressed every concern we had, and made the entire process smooth and stress-free. It truly felt like he was on our side. If you’re looking for someone who is patient, transparent, and genuinely committed to helping you, I highly recommend asking for Leo. He made this purchase a great experience.

Not the ordinary used car experience..
I have to dismiss all the bad jokes about used car salesmen. I met an extraordinary salesman, Joe Murphy, at Paris Motors, Inc., who proved the jokes wrong. I was in the market for a van and hoped on getting something affordable and soon for a trip out of town. Another dealer had one lined up, but it was sold before I could get to the shop - stuff happens. So back to Carfax and found one with less miles in Grand Rapids. I contacted Paris Motors and spoke with Mr. Murphy. The van was available. I went through credit approval, got it, then on to my AAA agent for insurance, got it, then made the one-hour drive to Grand Rapids and met with Joe. We talked, saw the van, gave a test drive, and my wife and I signed the paperwork. All this within 24 hours! Mr. Murphy was efficient, personable, and knowledgeable throughout the process. I have never before purchased a vehicle with such ease in my life (and I'm not young). WOW - I can highly recommend Paris Motors, Inc. as a dealer of care and quality, and kudos to Joe Murphy.
