Used cars for sale in East Windsor, CT under $40,000

Let me start by saying that I have written reviews for several businesses over the years and the ratings were between mediocre to good in all cases. I am writing this review for Prime Wheels, located at 200 S. Main Street in East Windsor, CT for one major review. I think it is essential that as a consumer to vet any business and their practices and share those findings with the public to help others make the best purchasing experiences. I am giving my first EXCEPTIONAL CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE RATING to Prime Wheels! This is not an exaggeration and no I was not asked to write a review. I was compelled to do so based upon my car buying experience from the initial inquiry, test drive and right down to making my full cash offer and purchase. Let me tell you about Joshua Wilcox. He is the Sales Manager but never came across as a "Sales Man. This was a no pressure experience. This gentleman was honest from start to finish, full transparency. Joshua broke down all costs and details about my Chevy Equinox. (BTW) By the way for all old schoolers with respect to abbreviations as a woman, I am smart with my budget and money. The car was fairly priced, unlike to the big dealers that tried to "gas light" and pressure me into buying an Equinox that was priced at 6 Grand over the Blue Book value, with no warranty and it had 31 K more miles on it than my comfort zone would allow me to accept. I called and checked a few big dealerships and they all must use a similar play book to sale over-priced used cars. Let me tell you, this was not the case with Joshua Wilcox, nor with Jay for that matter. They were awesome and friendly, professional and all a pleasure to interact with, again from start to finish. What impressed me the most was the quality of the vehicle as well as the promised action to have my car ready, emissions tested, registered, plated, 3/4 of a tank of gas, cleaned, and ready to go. Joshua and Jay are honest. Joshua found out just in making conversation with me that I had overpaid $500 for a coverage that I will not need for another 6 months. Rather than take advantage of my lack of knowledge in this regard, Joshua carefully explained what I was paying for was already included in my current plan outside of purchasing my vehicle and that there was no need for me to waste money to pay for a need that does not yet apply. Ask yourself how many dealerships or salespeople would do that and hand you back $500 on the spot and not shrug their shoulders, pocket your money, and keep moving. I was treated with value and respect for my business as well as my time and money. White Glove Service indeed! LADIES and Gentlemen, if you really want an exceptional and honest car purchasing experience, bypass the big dealership with the used car sticker shock, high pressures sales tactics and the unpleasant waste of your time and especially your money. You owe it to yourself to at least stop by Prime Wheels and talk to Joshua or Jay for your used car. You will get the exact unique experience that I had.

Bought as a spare vehicle and it is fast becoming primary driver. Very comfortable - love the power seats and adjustable lumbar support. A Bir hard on gas but well worth the trade off for the comfort

I just picked up my 2019 A6 from Northbay Imports today. The process with getting fianced through the dealership was awesome and they got me an amazing rate that i wasn't expecting. I must say buying from Northbay was 100x easier then buying from a major dealer. The process was more personable and hassel free. When I picked up the car it was detailed filled and ready for me to hit the road. I must say I didn't expect much from a mom and pop shop but they blew me away with this experience. I recommmend this dealership to anyone who was a hassel free amazing experience

Awesome vehicle, elegant, seductive lines, beautiful interior, great performance, acceleration, handling, very fun to drive. Great for driving in any conditions, short trips or road trips.

over all this dealership was very helpful. I went to other dealerships and they were very rode. I'm very happy with my car. driving it for over 3 months no problem at all.

I've dreamed of owning a 911 Turbo since I was in my teens. I'm now 63 years old and don't need to drive 150mph anymore. Last year my wife and I decided to look for a convertible to recapture the days of when we first started dating in 1987 when she had a 1982 Fiat Spyder 2000 convertible. We traded that in 2004 on a BMW 330Xi. We had a pretty sweet deal lined up on a 2008 BMW Z4 until the day before we went to pick it up and found out the dealer sold it from under us. What could have really sucked turned into a golden opportunity: we chanced upon a 2001 Boxster S with 59,000 original miles. We have not regretted the decision one bit. Yes, the ergonomics are somewhat dated compared to today and it's not the latest and greatest technology, but we bought it to drive, not to be distracted with all sorts of gizmos. (I'm employed as a Sales representative at a local Chrysler/Dodge/Jeep Dealer for over 35 years. I'm exposed to all the technology). This little Bavarian bomber is an absolute blast to drive; comfortable, quick, sticks to the road like burnt eggs to a cast iron frying pan, and turns heads everywhere. It's capable of 160+ mph, but the right road at 55 mph brings grins all the time. We just went for a weekend trip with it and had no problem with room for our luggage, a tote bag, and a small soft-sided cooler. And as an added bonus, we took it through the famed Hawk's Nest Highway on Route 97 north of Port Jervis, NY. Wonderful to drive, comfortable even after a couple hours, fuel-efficient (except when I play with the Tiptronic on a twisty road), and so far, dead-bolt reliable. So I didn't get my 911 Turbo; the Boxster S is a more than welcome consolation prize. You owe it to yourself. P.S- My wife drives it more than I do!

Was a great experience buying a 2019 Jeep Compass Trailhawk edition. Kevin the salesman was phenomenal. Not just saying it but truly a no pressure environment. I would definitely recommend this place to friends. From Kevin the salesman all the way to the finance manager, great experience.

Shopping for a new vehicle ranks right up at the top of my list of things I dread doing. So when we decided to replace my 11 year old car, we took the time to do research and read reviews of the newer models. Being very tall and having several vehicle requirements, we narrowed the search. Five dealerships later, those did not pan out! Out of frustration, we decided to just go to the auto mall at Southpoint. As we wandered the lots, a salesman, Tarik Adas approached us from the Hendricks Buick/GMC dealership. Such a delightful and well informed salesman! No high pressure sale; he just listened to what we were looking for. He made several suggestions to try out for size and then showed us a vehicle that checked all the boxes and then some! Dealing with Abdul Aldanab in the Finance Department was very easy and he was able to offer us some options and extras that will help protect our new vehicle for years to come. We certainly did not go with the intention of purchasing a Buick, but we are loving the new ride! And like the commercial says . . . “It’s not your grandpa’s Buick!

Great help and clarity. They repaired all issues and got me discounts where it was possible to do so! Thanks a ton to Kia East Hartford!

I really love all the safety features and the speed. It is really fun to drive, cool looking and fast. The only negative is the miles per gallon, but everything else makes up for it.

5 Star Review for Emmerson and Mike the business manager. I live in Florida (out of state), and I bought a car and hired a shipping company to ship it out. Everyone at the dealer made it easy to deal with and the process was smooth and simple. Many thanks. -Eric Ormond Beach, FL

I loved this car and did not want to get rid of it but like most Bmw’s after a certain point they get to be a money pit. I did all I could to take care if the car with the hopes I could keep it and pass it down but I became frustrated that after 13 years the car became to unreliable. It was fun to drive and had a great engine. The body and interior held up very well.

On Nov 16?i had my car in for a recall. Stephanie helped me and was excellent! She is professional and very knowledgeable. Kudos for Stephanie! Genevieve Keddy

We are excited to be proud new Jeep owners and look forward to all the fun we will have. Making memories with the grandkids. Rides great and has a lot of amenities

Staff was professional,friendly and courteous at all times.I appreciated knowing what repairs had to be done with an estimated quote and the work was done earlier than the scheduled appointment. The service tech arranged for the recall work to be completed while car was in the bay and eliminated another appointment.

Love my 2021 Ford bronco sport. Except, the brakes squeal loudly everytime I back up. It's actually quite embarrassing to have an almost new car that sounds like that. I'm told it can't be fixed. Also my tires, that don't even have 26000 miles on them, I'm told , should be replaced soon. The tread is getting worn. These tires are michalon. Sad that I now have to spend another $1000 or more for a new set of tires on this low of mileage. Please respond with a solution.

I tried my dealer for a car problem and they would not help me or even see me for 2 months. I called Balise and the woman who answered the phone talked me through fixing my problem and also told me that if that didnt work I could bring my car in anytime to have a tech look at it. Guess where I will bring my car from now on. Thank You!!!

We already had a 2016 S model that was trouble free for 4 years and currently 48k miles. I replaced my spare car with the 2013 SEL AWD loaded like a Titanium. After 2 years it has been fantastic. Only trouble was 2 bad rear wheel speed sensors. Cost me $54 in parts to replace myself. Many 250 mile interstate round trip drives and never an issue. It had 62k miles when I bought it with full documentation of all minor repairs and maintenance. Regardless of reviews I got a good one. Check the history, check out before you buy, and you can find a good one like I did. They are not all bad.

Exceptional. Could not ask for a better experience. From start to finish the transaction exceeded my expectations. I would absolutely consider making a future purchase with the dealer again.

I have owned a 2016 f-type base convertible for two years. I have owned a Porsche 911 and 944 as well as a BMW Z3 and Z4.. I liked all of them but although the Jaguar is newer it does handle and ride great. I’m older now and I like the feel of a nice sports car. The F-Type gets the looks and admiration you would expect.

My salesperson Trayce did a fantastic job. I would definitely recommend this dealership to anyone. Every step of the way was very easy and professional.

Love the luxuary! Drives & rides very well! Was driving a mini van proir and wanted space and the extras. Tons of room for passengers & your stuff.

Lynnelle was very friendly and knowledgeable and she made our experience at Balise Kia in West Springfield enjoyable! This was my first time buying a car and it was a very smooth experience.

The 4RUNNER is an impressive car and very popular in my area. I would like to have seen more amenities that many of their other models have like: Power liftgate, auto lane safety control, lane warning lights in side mirrors, turning indicator light in side mirrors and relocate trailer plug connector further back towards the rear bumper.

Recently had our Sienna serviced here. I made a next day appointment by phone. The service staff was friendly and the work was done quickly with no issues. Recommend.

I love the seats in it, they are so comfortable. I really like the black carpet in it and also the hidden windshield wipers. The car just looks amazing and the Red color is a beautiful color.

Very friendly staff to me, my wife and my children most of all. Honest about the vehicles they sell and gave me a great deal on my trade in.

i love this fsport model. its fun to drive and has a luxury feel as well. i enjoy the economy, normal and sport mode options. the leather interior is classy and sporty. plenty of kick in this engine for a fast ride!

Went in for oil change and tire rotation. The friendliness of the service people and the quality of work is why I keep going back!

I love this car except…, the exhaust or engine noise at 2500 to 3500 rpm. The other item that surprised me was the horn sound like a cheap little kiddie car. For $39000, I think they could have a decent horn in it. I sold Nissans for 18 years, this is the best Rogue they have produced yet. I would highly recommend this vehicle

I had a great experience at Bertera. The sales person was really good and everyone in the dealership was great to work with. I had reached out with some questions and had a response quickly. I would definitely go to Bertera again for any future purchases.

Rides like my Tahoe and is a 2500. Plenty of power pulling a load of horses. Interior is immaculate for a truck. Shame to use on the farm. Thanks Chevrolet.

Champagne Motorcar provided a great car buying experience. They had a fair trade and a reasonable price for the used vehicle. Dealt with a gentlemen named Ernie, he was very professional and non-aggressive The whole transaction was clean, prompt, and worry-free. The 2015 Honda pilot I purchased had its blemishes which was too be expected, and all Ernie would say when I pointed something out was “Oh. no problem we will take care of that!” Not that I haven’t heard this before but they did take care of EVERYTHING, This vehicle looked brand new when they were done with it! I look forward to purchasing my next vehicle from Champaign Motors! Now I know where they got their name, they are the Sparkling Bubbly of EXCELLENCE!

The comfort, quickness and very smooth ride. The fact that it is like a nice car inside but has just enough trunk space to haul big or tall things.

I just purchased my third vehicle from Blasius North (a truck, a car, and an SUV). Every experience has been fantastic from start to finish, from TJ in sales to Jeff in finance. The general manager, Steve, is down-to-earth and reasonable. I will continue to buy cars from Blasius North and highly recommend them to my friends and family.

Have the Duramax Crewcab. Get 15mpg with 12' NorthernLite Camper and 14mpg towing with the 8x10 cargo trailer with camper. 20mpg on highway with no load. Bought it in late 2008 with 32k on it have 101k now. Only been in the shop a couple of times for minor issues.

Best customer service around. Don and the whole service department have always taken excellent care of my vehicles. Quality work at a fair price. I am a lifelong customer.

My first Volvo coming from BMW’s. It’s very affordable to fix and initial cost. It’s comfortable and heated front and rear seats and steering wheel was a real selling point. Automatic transmission shifts ok also has sport mode or manual shifting options. Gas mileage is decent. Has start stop option you can turn on or off. Back up cam is great. Visibility all around is great for being a larger vehicle. No blind spots. Love it so far!
