I had a great experience, highly recommend dealer ship, Keith was fantastic! And all the process was very easy
Winter,Spring,Summer,Fall
I take care of my baby, i totally transformed the car , its pimped out now . Bought this car at 60k Miles in 2017 and now has 215k miles present day. I will say , My oil changes were every 5000miles with full synthetic oil used. I change the cvt fluid every 50000 miles or once a year for me cause i have heavier rims and tires on the car. I must say this is the best car i have owned by far and if you love it , it will love you.

It was definitely worth the stop!
I stopped in with my son, a first time buyer who was looking for something to tackle the snow with. As soon as we stepped out of our vehicle, Dominic approached us with a friendly aura and introduced himself with a smile. Ya know, most of the time when you’re greeted that fast as a auto shopper you’re thinkin’ uh-oh another pushy salesman, but that was far from the case. This dealership was helpful and willing to give us a car buying experience that was unmatched by previous lots around the region. The staff is friendly and treat you as one of their own. I will send all of my friends and family here first the next time they’re lookin’ to buy a car.
A reliable car
It is a good running car that do not burn much gas or give you problems , it’s a smooth running car, and have good pickup speed

Reliable & Easy!
I absolutely loved my nissan sentra. It was my 2nd car and could have lasted me another 10 years if I didn't have two large dogs needing to be hauled around. Spacious for a sedan, back seats can fold down and fit large items in the trunk/backseat. I rarely ever had problems with this vehicle in the 8 years of owning it and if I did, it was easy to fix and not breaking the bank. Would highly recommend!

Best experience this retired couple has ever had buying a
Best experience this retired couple has ever had buying a vehicle. Masha was a knowledgeable, helpful, and no pressure sales person. Of the 3 dealerships we contacted this one excels in inventory, best deals, and organization. Rochester was a huge disappointment when the fast talking pressure type manager got involved, we walked away. Nu Car in Tilton wouldn't honor their posted price on Auto Trader and no mention of the dealer incentive, just their version of MSRP.
Decent!
The CVT is garbage and it looks like a metallic chicken nugget. Buy a manual, the SE-R or just buy an older model. If your kid needs a car, it's a fantastic first car! It's just fun enough to whip about and just boring enough to think twice about trying to challenge that Mustang off the line.

I recently purchased the 2025 Nissan Kicks SV from Nissan in Hopkinsville, KY, and the experience was exceptional! The service was top-notch, and Susan Johnson, my salesperson, was outstanding. I really appreciated the compliment received from the manager regarding my trade in. The entire team was professional, knowledgeable about the car’s features, friendly and the showroom was clean and comfortable. I have received numerous compliments on the Canyon Bronze color of the car. I have taken a short trip to Indiana, and I love the way it performed on the road. I am extremely proud to own this wonderful vehicle! Thank you all for the excellent service I received!

We really enjoyed working with Steve and Kristian on the purchase of a Lexus RX 450H. They were very professional with no pressure. From what I’ve seen they sell good quality cars at a reasonable price with no dealer fees. The Lexus we purchased is 10 years old but looks and drives like new. Very satisfied!

Beau is the best! I have an older truck and he always gets me right in to fix any issues I’m having, he was kind enough to stay late on a holiday weekend to get my truck fixed so I could have it for the weekend! I highly recommend his shop! He is honest and affordable and does great work

2013 ford focus
After an accident mid April this year, I was in need of a car right away. The car I had was meant to last me for YEARS (it had only 81k miles), so finding myself needing to replace it was hard. Not only were my finances not in the best place at this time, but finding a used car with less than or equal to 100k miles was near impossible. Luckily the insurance did give me enough money to at least afford a down payment on a car. I went to a few other places first, as I was dead set on getting a truck, but all those places were super shady and the vehicles all had issues that required immediate attention that I just simply couldn't afford. My brother purchased from Angel Motors last year and he had a great experience so I decided to check them out after looking at their inventory on their website. I saw a lot of shiny fancy looking cars, most newer than a 2004, so all of them were pretty fancy for me. I found a 2013 Ford Focus there, less than 100k miles, and a clean title and carfax report. I test drove that car and bought it the same day. I needed a car quickly and they helped me with the process. This was going to be my first car loan and they helped me understand everything perfectly. I've had this car for almost a whole month now and it has worked great! My only issue with it is that I've never driven anything newer than a 2004 and not only is it really quiet, but also has a lot of buttons! All in All, I am very happy with my car so far!

Logan was great to work with. He worked hard to help us get financing when we needed a vehicle quickly due to a major breakdown of our primary family car. That was 3 years ago and we still have the vehicle! Would definitely purchase there again!
