I was taken home because the Salesman didn't want me to take the bus home at night. That was very nice.
The next day I was picked up from work to do final paperwork & picked up my car. Again, I would of taken the bus to Car City.
Thank You!
Everything went very smoothly, the salesmen was very friendly and very helpful. My experience with car city was a great one. Just don't care for the interest rate. I feel the APR is way to high. But I guess that's what happens when you have less than perfect credit. But after paying the new car off my credit should be ok. Thank you car city for giving me a chance, and helping me with a new, reliable, and beautiful van for my family and I, also for giving me a second chance on making my credit score a lot better.

They were very busy and I was still helped in a very kind and professional way. I have been to other places that were just as busy and treated like an inconvenience. The guys were very helpful in getting me exactly what I wanted.
Other than I wish the loan program was for five years rather than four (for lower payments), this program is extremely helpful for me. I am trying to re-build my life after some unforeseen challenges. Thank you.
Friendly customer service and sales. Very explanatory while giving information. Happy to answer any questions and do so to the best of their knowledge. All around happy
We have gotten our last 4 vehicles from Car City. At first it was our credit that brought us there, but now we keep going back because of the friendly people and we have love every vehicle we have purchased. So we will continue to use Car city.
