Avoid this dealership, Took my nephew to look at a car he found online. Found the car looked at it and it was rough but went inside to find the sales staff. What I found was two very young guys dressed like they were headed to the beach tank tops and shorts. I tried to look past this and we still went out to look at the car with them. The car was from Ohio and they tried to sell on the fact that it would have less rust on it then because it was from Ohio ( Apparently they have no knowledge of the salt belt). The car we looked at didn't have a lot of visual rust that's only because they spay painted over the rust on it along with many other cars on the lot. Took the car for a test drive stepped on the gas and almost nothing happened likely a major transmission issue. Brought the car back and said no thank you and explained the problem. The two sales staff then ran out to the car and thrashed on the car in the parking lot. After they were done I was talking to my sister and nephew in the parking lot one salesman came up to me to argue that the car was fine and tried to tell me that the issues was only because the car was a 4 cylinder. Aside from an unprofessional sales staff I would describe most of the cars on their lot as car that were traded in to better dealerships for maybe 2 or 3 hundred dollars above scrap prices ($500 ) that are running and driving. Little is done to cars to prep them for resale ( aside from spray painting over rust ) they still want 2 - 3 thousand dollars for them. I fully expect them to tear apart my review and act professional but they were anything but the day I was at their dealership. They could not have been anything more but sleazy carsalesman that give the good ones a bad name. Lots of better places to spend your money in the Twin Cities do yourself a favor and avoid this dealership. Also if you look at the positive reviews you will find that they are made by people that either work at or affiliated with the dealership.

Worst experience ever! They sold a used car that was supposedly in good condition because it had been owned by a mechanic and had low miles (~100,000 for a Volvo). In addition, they indicated a lot of people were looking at it and it would go fast. Two days after leaving the lot, it was in the shop requiring $4,000 in repairs to be considered safe for the single mom and her two girls who depend on this vehicle for safe transportation and an income. They refused to discuss the issue further and said she agreed to purchase the car "as is". "As is" is how they sell all of their cars. Do not make the same mistake!

Friendly dealer, reasonable prices. Depending what price range you’re looking at some cars may need minor work but nothing hazardous. Every car I looked at has started rand and drove off the lot fine. I would recommend this place!

Great used car dealership to buy from. Phillip and Nikolay were very helpful throughout the entire car buying process. I am very satisfied with my purchase and will recommend this dealership to my friends and family.

Would give it zero if I could! This business has no credibility and was an awful experience for my family. We had several people test drive and they called and asked for $1,000 more after we left. We gave them the money even though we shared on the phone that they had stated a different price like three times. We are disputing the additional charge with Amex as we don’t agree to it. This is a horrible place for anyone wanting to do fair, ethical business.
