Auto Center Bargain Lot

Definitely look at the website before walking in to see their inventory. You can also see the carfax on all the vehicles which helps in making a decision. They helped us get a nice modern family car at a price we could afford. Since it was technically purchased at the Lexus dealer down the road I was able to get free diagnostics including an oil pressure test that would’ve run me at least 100$ at a shop when I ran into issues typical for a 10 year old car. They were very transparent about the cars history. Been driving it for 6 months and after flushing the radiator, it runs beautifully. We will definitely be looking here again the next time we need a vehicle.

You have yourselves a real Gem there, Bobby was hands down one of the best down to earth salesman I’ve ever met. I had two vehicles I was going to look at when I went to Wayzata, one was at your dealership and the other one was at the dealership down the road. Bobby explained he was able to help me test drive both of them. He took his time taking us out and was very personable. He made looking for a car less stressful.. You can tell he has a heart of gold the way he looked out for me. I did purchase my vehicle through the other dealership, Bobby went above and beyond. He was so patient and answered all my questions. Thank you Bobby for all your help! Give that man a raise 😉

I had a great experience with Jason W. buying my high mileage Toyota Highlander, nice staff, they fixed the rear brakes for free! Will buy from here again :-)
Update March 2024, I love the car 2 years later!

Super group of people! I was in and out in under 2 hours and that includes test driving time! I recommend you to go here for your next vehicle. Ask for Jason tell him Cynthia recommended him!

I was looking for a specific make and model of a new Land Rover Discovery. I found one online in their lot for $5,000 under what other dealerships were asking! I set-up an appointment immediately to test drive the vehicle. I came here after days of snow and -20 degree weather so of course the vehicle that had been sitting outside didn't start at first. Ryan and his co worker tried everything they could and finally got it up and running. We went for a test drive and I had my mechanic look it over.... everything checked out. We then began to talk about financing, Ryan and their sales manager Matthew were informative and honest about the whole process. Very down to earth people. They beat the initial interest rate I was given by my credit union. The best part is they took care of my trade in vehicle and I was able to drive off the lot that night with my new car. I had a really good experience here. I highly recommend working with Ryan W and Matthew P.
thanks again guys!!

Matt and the manager were very helpful. we are very happy with the Lexus RX350 purchase. Great job!

I didn’t end up buying a car here but was referred down the road to another dealership. I was personally brought over there & the kindest man made sure I was set up with someone who wasn’t intimidating or going to hassle me as a single mom with a small child in tow. Such a kind gesture & it really made me feel safe. Highly recommend.

Matt Stanek and Don Rollins are awesome. They both treat customers with respect and I’d definitely recommend working with them.

Great staff but because of the auto shortage there isn't much of a selection. Looks like they are buying cars from the auction and not getting them from trade ins from Lexus. They do have some trade but the car faxes show different histories from around the country being sold there. Easy to tell.

I purchased a vehicle from this location a little bit over a week back. Our salesman, Jason, did an absolute fantastic job helping us quickly close out the deal once we decided on a car. It took us a few days to get the financing figured out, but Jason did great work in consistently calling me and my dad to keep us in the loop, even on his day off. It was a very pleasant car buying experience, and the vehicle works great. Thanks again Jason!

Matt made buying a new car easy. It was the right car, at a good price! And financing was easy! In and out in a few hours with a fantastic Toyota! Thank you to Matt and the crew!

(updated review in 2021)--> I bought a second upgraded auto from the Lexus Auto Center Bargain Lot. Tom Parle took great care to help me select the perfect used vehicle, another gem. I am having it serviced at the Lexus Dealership in Wayzata. That may cost a bit more but it is worth it, Mike is a great guy there. I got a 10-year warranty or 100K miles with my used vehicle. That is amazing. Thank you Tom!
(original review in 2019)--> Absolutely fantastic service and support. I did research my car via Lexus of Wayzata. I am so glad the bargain lot is available for those of us who need it. Thanks Tom Parle and the team

Was looking for a new car for my daughter and found the service and sales approach was top notch, not only for myself, but for my daughter. This being her first office car that she has owned, the experience has been somewhat overwhelming for her at other dealers. Not here. They had honest and straight forward conversations with my daughter and took the time to explain everything so that she knew all aspects of the sale and the contract. Hats off the the team here and THANK YOU for taking an honest approach with their sales process!

I had a great experience at the bargain lot! I was on the hunt for a new truck and luckily I found one that just came in from a trade. They had it cleaned and fixed up for me in just a few days. Matt was super helpful and made sure to communicate everything I needed to know. He made sure the truck was going to last me a long time and that everything was in good shape. Josh was awesome and helped me get financing locked in, even though it was an older vehicle. I'm so happy with my new truck! Thanks guys!

I bought a big red truck that was the top of the line! I got a great deal on it too! Almost, $10,000 off! My boy Dave Love was amazing in helping me get this truck! I’m sure it was because he knew I was excited. I had a few problems with this truck in the beginning and they did everything they could to fix it! Put almost $9k into it for me and gave me decent rentals!

I was shopping for a higher millage Chevy Suburban in good shape. Dave Love helped us out. There was no pressure or gimmicks. I found a perfect fit. They were easy to work with on the paper work, and I had the vehicle I was looking for. Being a high millage SUV, I didn't get a warranty. On the way home, the oil pressure light went on. I talked to their service dept. They had me bring I right back to be fixed, free of charge. A few days later, they notified me that they didn't feel comfortable selling me the vehicle because they weren't certain the problem was a simple as it seemed. They offered to take the vehicle back for a full refund.
That kind of service and honesty is hard to come by. I'm actually holding off on my search until they get another vehicle that matches my criteria. I just don't feel comfortable shopping anywhere else.

Best used car shopping experience!!! I called 6 different used car lots inquiring about a car or two at each lot, and my conversation with Matt felt the most natural and I really appreciated the information he gave me about their lot. I went in later the same day and Steve showed me the car, we took it for a test spin, and I decided to buy it. I never felt like anyone was pushing the sale on me, everyone was very knowledgeable and friendly. All of the cars on the lot look well taken care of. Their model is to sell the cars within 30 days, so they put the best price on them upfront, and you know these haven't been sitting around very long. I would highly recommend buying here! It was SO much better than my first buying experience!!

We purchased a car here in April, were very satisfied with the process. Sales people were helpful, business office was easy to work with.
After a few hundred miles, the radiator started leaking so we brought it in and they diagnosed and replaced a valve, no charge.
Very happy with our experience, including the manager Gary.
I'd be happy to purchase a car from them again.

I bought a 2007 Honda Element EX from the Auto Center Bargain Lot and could not be more pleased with the entire transaction. Great car at a great price. I received an excellent interest rate on my loan, too. Everyone was polite and customer centric. These people are well trained and I think they really do care about the customer experience.
Thanks to the entire team.

This dealership is amazing! So I saw a awesome car on their site, stopped by and Jim offered test drives and he provided professional no pressure sales. I loved the car in person and Jim walked me through everything then, Josh in Finance took over and it was history! I drove away in 15 minutes. I recommend this dealer for great deals with a variety of vehicles and amazing staff providing excellent experience. Thank you Jim & Thank you Josh! You guys Rock!
