Excellent customer service from the minute we walked in the doors. We test drove a few different vehicles, very relaxed and no pressure whatsoever.We ended up working with John and he was fantastic.The buying experience was flawless; great price, & easy transaction. We will definitely be using John in the future at iDeal Auto Imports.
Never heard of this place until yesterday! I just recently purchased a 2014 Audi SQ5 Lava Grey Pearl from John at Ideal Auto imports. Working with them is awesome. The price for the vehicle was perfect for me. The car is beautiful and I couldnt ask for a better experience! Thank you guys for the awesome job. I would recommend this dealer to anyone!
I had a great experience at Ideal Auto Imports. Found the exact car I wanted Saturn Sky in tip-top shape at a fair price with excellent customer service and attention-to-detail. I am enjoying my convertible Saturn Sky this Summer. The process was stress free and pleasant. They go above and beyond for their customers and try to help as much as possible. Their imported cars are top-notch excellent with a fair price. My satisfaction was unparalleled/going above and beyond in every aspect. I highly recommend this dealership. Thanks again for the great help!
John G. was fantastic. No pressure, laid back environment. Enjoyed the process of purchasing a fun car. John was quick to correct any issues that may have come up. Overall a great experience.
I can’t say enough good things about John and crew. The indoor show room and high quality car selection was great. Their finance resources interest rates where better than our bank. From inquiring on a vehicle and after the sale John has been awesome to work with.
The vehicle we purchased (Mercedes GLK 350) from Ideal was in impeccable condition. Our salesperson, Misha, was very professional and accommodating as we had an inspection done by our trusted mechanic; our mechanic was extremely impressed with the vehicle and the purchase price.Misha was great to work with and the selection of high end vehicles they have is really impressive. I would not hesitate to return if the need arises and I strongly recommend Ideal!
Picked out a Infiniti Q40 at iDeal with my son as he went off to school. Low pressure scenario; able to spend time looking at possibilities without someone looking over our shoulder. Good variety of clean used cars. Easy to take a test drive, and financing was also straightforward. Enjoyed the experience, and would go back again. Maybe something for me next time.
My wife and I easily found a truck we were looking for on the iDeal website. It was near or at the top of a Google search. Showroom was really convenient as it’s totally indoors. Our salesman John was really responsive and helpful from beginning to end. And even after the sale John followed up to make sure all was well with our purchase. The truck was priced reasonably. iDeal is highly recommended!
The price is right, and the service was great. Thank you, I would buy my next car again.
The process of getting a car from Ideal Auto Imports was smooth and easy. I was able to communicate with the staffs in an easy manner without having to go through several line. John helped me through the whole process making sure I had all the things I needed. I would definitely recommend Ideal Auto Imports to anyone looking for their ideal car.
Just bought a Bmw from John. Great experience overall, I would recommend my friends and family to purchase here.
We’ve been to many car dealerships and by far this is the best experience we had compared to others. Would highly recommend to others and will definitely come back if in the further we’re looking to buy again.
I have driven 6 hours down from North Dakota to buy my last 3 cars from iDeal and each time it’s been very relaxed and easy! John and Misha are very professional, transparent and knowledgeable on the cars they sell, so I always feel confident on what I’m buying. I recommend iDeal to anyone I know who’s looking for a car, and I will definitely be back for my next!
Great experience all around. I highly recommend giving them a shot.
My experience was great! No hassle! No haggling! The owner is awesome! The lead salesman is awesome!
We had a great experience getting our new vehicle. John was easy going and did not pressure us in any way throughout the process. They were easy to contact for any questions, and finalizing all paperwork was very smooth.
Recently bought a vehicle from out of state. Was about the easiest vehicle purchase I’ve ever had. Communication was fantastic throughout the process and I couldn’t be happier. Great job!
This is an indoor dealership. Totally different from those outdoors dealership and John and Matt the 2 dealers there today were incredible and super knowledgeable about their cars. Tested the infinity QX80 and the Mercedes-Benz GL450 was having issue with the Bluetooth settings, bamm John set it up and all the other settings he fixed them. They were just incredible out there...
I truly enjoyed the whole experience of buying my car from ideal auto imports.The whole experience of working with John was awesome.He took his time and really understood what I was looking for and was able to deliver.Without a doubt I highly recommend Ideal Auto to anyone who is looking for a car.
Great service!! Above and beyond and very quick response to all my questions. Great dealer, clean, safe and with a very nice inventory for every budget. CHECK THEM OUT YOU WILL NOT REGRET.
Beware of this place! I bought a 2014 Audi A6 from this place in August of 2019. The day of purchase - John (salesman) tells me that he will send one of the workers there to fill the tank with gas. It was raining this day, and when the driver returns he stated that I should avoid taking Wallace Road to get onto Highway 5 because there was a considerable amount of water on the road.When I got into the car to drive home there wasn’t an issue and things seemed fine. However, once I went to start the car the next day I received a notification telling me “Turn Off Engine. Steering Defective - Do Not Drive.” To say the least this was shocking to me seeing that this was a newer car and shouldn’t have any steering problems. I called John and was instructed to bring the vehicle in to have it “looked at” by their mechanic, however they determined “nothing was wrong”.I immediately took it to an Audi dealership when I was told that it was in fact the power steering was out due to high water damage. (Driving through deep water - and the Audi has an electric power steering set up). Had to spend $4200 in repairs for a new power steering rack a week after buying the vehicle...SHADY SHADY SHADY. Didn’t even offer to reimburse me for something their (Ideal Auto Import) driver did. Drove my vehicle through standing water, and claimed it wasn’t covered in their warranty 30 day warranty even though this happened day of purchase.ONCE AGAIN AVOID AVOID AVOID!
Very good experience with purchasing my car though I was buying as a customer in PA and the dealership is in Minnesota. Given the distance, I never saw or test drove the vehicle before it was shipped and received. The sales person in my case was John Gossett, a considerate and fantastic individual, who was always available for questions and issues if any. His detailed description of the vehicle matched the condition of the vehicle when I received it. The dealership also conducted the transaction professionally and seamlessly. I wished I lived closer to Minnesota to check them out more often or refer family and friends in PA, NJ, and elsewhere in the east coast where I know a lot of folks.
Great place and nice vehicles to choose from... Check them out
Been with them for 2 years now. Still going strong 💪Thank you John 💕
Truly awesome experience, would recommend to everyone.
John was great to work with. Got a fair deal on my trade in and a great price on my car. Financing was a breeze as well. Its nice to buy a car without all the BS that you deal with at the larger dealerships
Very professional and responsive, answered all the questions we had and pressure free process.
We had a great experience working with John, we appreciated the no pressure sale.
IDeal auto has a great lineup of luxury cars for all price ranges. I stopped in and saw John who showed me around the entire indoor showroom. He answered every question I had and allowed test drives with a no pressure sales approach. Purchase was fast and easy. I will definitely be back in the future.
I had wonderful experience working with John last week while purchasing my new vehicle. He was very informative and easy to work with. No pushy sales tactics. He was very patient while I finalized financing with my credit union, even though they offered similar rates. I would highly recommend doing business with Ideal, and working with John!
Best car buying experience Ive ever had. John was friendly, accommodative, and genuinely interested in finding me and my wife the perfect car, and somehow made the whole experience quick. Ill be back for our next car!
Very Helpful and patient, pay attention to details of your questions..
Service was great! I saw the car I wanted Wednesday afternoon, booked an appointment for Thursday and was in and out within 2 hours with the car. German and John were great! Will definitely be back for my next vehicle!
My family and I have purchased 4 vehicles from Max, John and the iDeal team over the course of the past few years. You will not find a more honest, flexible, no-fuss, and cooperative dealership in the area. I have purposely waited to find the right car at the right time from iDeal, because I know it will be a very high quality vehicle at a very fair price. They take phenomenal care of their customers and inventory alike. Looking forward to another vehicle purchase in the future. I highly recommend iDeal Auto Imports to anyone looking for an extremely positive car buying experience.
I have found my dealership! First time buying a car on my own and John made the process so easy and comfortable. He was super respectful, helpful and honest. Like buying from a good friend. Highly recommend.
IDeal has a great inventory and John is an absolute pleasure to work with. I had my financing already set up yet John was able to beat my credit unions rate and offered even better terms through one of his finance partners.I would absolutely recommend iDeal to anyone in the market for a low mileage, high quality vehicle - you will not be disappointed.Thanks again John, well done!
I purchased my vehicle at iDeal after working with John. Talk about helpful. He went out of his way to help me. John answered my questions honestly and made my experience easy. Simply put, it was the best experience Ive ever had when purchasing a car. Thanks, John....you rocked it!
There were great 👍 I would definitely recommend it John was great alway there if you need anything it’s all beyond and above services I wish there would do complementary car wash other then that I loved there services that they provide is the best And it’s great place to renew cars and oil change was fast —-very friendly stuffs
It was easy and fast dealing with iDeal auto from the minute we stepped in till we walked out with a car we were looking for. The car was clean and test drove it around, paper work was easy and simple, dealer provided important warranty information and explained how it works and we decided what we want without any pressure. Love the car and for sure will do business again in future.
It was an absolute pleasure to purchase my Audi Q7 from these Gents! The service and knowledge was top of the line! John really knew his stuff and made it easy for me to get in and out of the dealership with a great deal! Very professional and easy to work with!
Wow! Love this place! Great selection and indoors. Clean pleasing environment! This was our first time shopping for vehicle here. We asked them to keep a look out for a few various brands and price range and they came back with options for us as they found some. We ended up with a brand we hadn’t requested but was highly rated and fit our needs. The entire process went well and we never felt any pressure to buy. We will definitely be recommending to family and friends. Decent pricing and fair trade in price as well!!! Thank you ideal!!!Loving our Lexus! Great car and no issues since buying.
Although I did not find the vehicle I was looking for, the Staff at iDeal Auto Imports was EXTREMELY professional. If anyone reading this wonders whether to stop by there or not, you can go with confidence knowing you’ll experience something new in shopping for a vehicle. Keep up the great work!
Very painless experience. Same day financing. My credit is not perfect and I drove my Audi A5 Prestige Coupe out... same day!!! All imports (99%) and you should definitely visit iDeal before making a decision!
Great experience. Didnt not feel pressured in to quick look at it buy or get out like at many expenses I had in the past
BEWARE!! Very dishonest boss and staff. Horrible customer service.Beware of John. Hes a younger looking guy. My brother called to speak to him, and I also texted their line. The text clearly says they DO NOT HOLD cars. Not knowing he spoke to siblings, John calls me and tells me that theres been a deposit on the car and I can no longer go. We spoke some more and realized that it was my brother he had spoken to. So he LIED straight to me, but since we live 4 hrs away and was already on our way there, we decided to go. We were interested in getting two cars but the darker BMW Xi (69,000+ miles) has a broken center console and I asked John to see if he would reduce the price since Ill need to fix it. We looked online and a center console costs $370. John made a call and said it costs $146. We waited 2hrs! I asked if he can give us proof of that cost. He got frustrated. His boss came in, I think his name is Max(?). Didnt greet us at all nor acknowledge us. John was giving us an attitude and I tell both of them that Im no longer interested because hes not a honest person. I tell his boss what happens. John admits to lying in front of all of us and his boss says hes a good employee! Like what? Your employee just said he lied SMH. They lost a chance at us buying two cars.
IDeal represents their vehicles just like the photos. I had an amazing and quick purchase/trade-in. John Gossett was great to work with. Must check these guys out if you like a vehicle you see on the website. Thanks iDeal for the great experience! -Dave
Had a great experience with the sales staff. Would recommend.
I met with one of the owners, German, to discuss a trade in and new car purchase. I was already feeling a bit defeated when I came in because I had just left a corporate auto dealer and was given the worst customer service I could imagine. When walking into iDeal, we were greeted immediately and shown around where we could take a look at the inventory. We knew where to find help if we needed it but we were left on our own to explore which we appreciated. After finding a vehicle I was very interested in, I took it for a test drive and we started talking price and different options. This vehicle wasnt the best for me financially but German took the time to sit down with me and my friend for over an hour to discuss vehicle needs, price point, monthly payment, etc. I have never had anyone take so much time and give me so much information and he got to know me and what would be best for me. He could have sold me something else that was in my price point that day but it wouldnt be a good fit for me and it felt good knowing that he didnt just want to get me in something and make a sale. I continue to work with him and search for the best vehicle for me and will be trading in my current car as well once I find the best one.I will 100% always come here for a new vehicle. I was referred by a friend and I will also be referring to my friends and family because not only are their vehicles prices extremely fair, they are pleasant to deal with and these guys know their cars. Its a very comfortable atmosphere and you do not feel like you are being taken advantage of, which, as a woman, can be a bit scary sometimes because I dont know much about vehicles!Thank you to German and the guys at iDeal for all your help!
I bought my first car from Max at iDeal back in 2013. I had given a car to my daughter who was starting her first job and wanted something sporty. They had a mint condition 2006 Audi A4 convertible with front wheel drive. I drove that car to work today. All Ive done is put tires on it. I also bought a beautiful Infinity SUV from Max 3 years ago, however a neighbors daughter tapped a car in traffic and totaled it. So, I went back to Max last summer and bought a stunning 2011 Audi Q5 3.2. Big engine and amazing features. I test drove it and bought it immediately. Cars dont stay long on his lot. If you like it, buy it. The prices are extremely competitive, and the vehicles are in like new condition. Im sure when the convertible finally quits (it is 13 years old) Ill be back. Steve - Chanhassen
Max and John are both great! John made it the easiest and best car buying process for me. Definitely will be back when the girlfriend needs an upgrade soon!
Bad experience,dont trust those guys, they will rip you off...!
The experience from start to finish was simple and fast. They treated me with kindness and respect unlike car dealers who can judge you by your age. If you are looking for a great car with kind and friendly staff, then this is a great place to shop!
Our experience started out great - but when the car had a number of mechanical issues in the first days, the process to “address” was less than ideal.
Bought an Audi Q7 about a month ago. The whole process was super easy and relaxed from emailing John about the vehicle, test driving, trade in, financing, and driving off the lot. All of their vehicles are in an indoor showroom and very clean. When we noted the wear of the tires and a loose panel, they gave us a discount and were quick to secure the panel for us. They gave us a more than fair deal on our trade in as well. I would highly recommend anyone looking for a nice import to check this dealer out. Well be back for our next car.
The staff at Ideal Auto is absolutely the best! John is one of the most professional people I have ever met! Courteous and kind! Max is great as well. Will do business with this company again.
My daughter had her first car buying experience with Ideal Auto Imports and it could not have been better. Friendly and knowledgable sales with John, great inventory to choose from and no heavy pressure. We will be back for another car on the future.
I am very happy with the car and price. Being a used car, there were a couple of issues such as only one key, no wind screen and no license plate holder. Audi wanted a $100.00 for the holder, I got one from Amazon for $5.00. I did have to get another key made which was over $300.00. The dealership did take care of the wind screen. So, when buying a used car, there are some things to watch for always. However, as I said, I am very pleased with the car and have put almost 4000 miles on it this month. The staff at iDeal Auto was professional and pleasing to work with through the process.
John and Max was very fun to work with and also patience. They answered all of my questions and concerns.
I was looking for a nice, reasonably priced, used car for an entire two weeks. I was starting to want to give up and buy an expensive car at a big dealership, just because I thought it would be easier. Then I came to Ideal Auto Imports, and it was overall just fantastic. It was a beautiful facility, and so many cars! They had over 100 cars and so many diverse choices. And the prices were actually surprisingly low - I bought Infinity Q50 and I fell for it almost instantly. I was almost certain though that the price wouldnt fit my budget.. But it was perfect. The customer service was so professional, yet kind and understanding at the same time. When I was car shopping at other places before its like they are trying to trick you to get your money, but it is far from that behavior at Ideals. German, one of the owners, was helping me that day and he was very professional and told me a lot about prices and different car brands, and was not tricking me like other dealers tried to. Boy he knows a lot about cars!!!!!! He showed me so much variety, I was shocked!!!!!!! The car I chose is great,and I probable saved a couple grand on it. I am recommending Ideal Auto to all my friends and family who are looking for fabulous cars for affordable prices.
John made my car buying experience seamless with no pressure. They gave me a very fair price on my trade-in and within a short amount of time, I drove off the lot with the SUV I wanted. When I got home I noticed a knob was missing that I hadnt noticed when I was looking over the vehicle so I contacted John and he had a new one by the following day. Great customer service. I love my SUV and would recommend John and iDeal Auto Imports.
Great place to buy a car. John was very nice to work with and I give this dealership my highest recommendation. My wife loves her X5! Thanks John
Johns the best in the business ! Nothing but happy with the BMW I purchased through him ! Quick to respond and knowledgeable!
Great service! John and German were great. They made my car buying experience stress free and very easy!!
I really liked my experience for buying Lexus 2015 is 250 from iDeal Auto Imports. I really enjoy my new ride. I mostly worked with John and he was one of the coolest salesman i have seen. Very understanding and professional. Thank you!
One of the best car buying experiences we’ve ever had. John made the process easy, quick, and fair. Our new Honda is in excellent condition and is exactly how it was advertised. We would definitely recommend them! :)
John, was very informative, patient with our questions, candid in his observations and a joy to work with. He went above and beyond in many ways and I commend him for his efforts.
It had a good atmosphere that did not try to push any specific decision on you, I was helped to find the best car for me. I do wish they had more specific knowledge on the little details of each car or had easy access to that information (such as what different drive modes do).
Great buying experience
They were fantastic such a smooth process
Being my first experience in car purchasing, I was blown away at how professional and easy the whole process was. They were up front and honest on everything and made filling out the application a breeze
Briefly, my wife and I recently visited iDeal Auto Imports in search of an affordable custom import with impeccable credentials and an honest transaction. We were more than impressed with our experience, the fantastic selection and our time with German, a co-owner and the most knowledgeable and hardest working car guy I have ever met. He found a vehicle for us that exceeded our expectations, at a price that I couldnt resist and made the transaction painless and a pleasure. Dont buy another car before a visit with Max and German at iDeal Auto Imports.
Do not do business there, not honest and very shady. They dont do full vehicle inspection before they sell them. I was very disappointed and stress for going back and forth to get the car tail light fixed which he said that his mechanic couldnt fixed after more than a week waiting. be careful when buying a luxury car from them.
John was awesome to work with! He addressed all questions with complete professionalism! Would highly recommend, thank you John!
Great staff, willing to work with you and are knowledgeable/experienced. Make you feel very welcomed and at home. 10/10
We had an excellent experience buying a car from Ideal Auto Imports. The car we were interested in had just come in and was not yet listed on their inventory. It was Memorial Day and German, one of the owners, went the extra mile to get all the paper work done so we could purchase the car that day. John, the sales rep, was very friendly and helped us through the whole transaction. All went very smoothly. We would recommend Ideal Auto Imports.
Great dealer. Drove 6 hours away out of state and the owner stayed late to sell me the car. Wrote up the deal and was in and out with in 15 minutes after the test drive. Gave me a good deal on my trade in as well. Very low pressure owner/salesman compared to other dealers I called. Even answered all my questions quickly after the sale with regards to title and registration. I would recommend this dealer and buy from them in the future as well!
We had a great experience with the car dealership. Professional, prompt and a fair price.
This was a fantastic buying experience. I was very anxious, because buying a car is always such a “game”. This was different. They were transparent about everything, turning the computer screen to show me what they were seeing “Here’s what the KBB is on your trade in. Does that seem fair?” I love the car that I bought and will come back the next time I need a car.
I couldnt have been more pleased about my experience. I would recommend anyone to work with these gentleman. Max and his crew there have a great facility that is definitely a Gem in Eden Prairie.Everything they did was in a timely fashion and explained thoroughly. I will probably do business with them in the future. A+
Top quality cars and no pressure sales! A great experience and found a great car at a fair price. Our sales guy, John, was friendly and patient. I would recommend friends and family to look at iDeals inventory before going to a larger dealership.
We called to see if the car we wanted was available, it was. We told them the time we would be there, we were there on time. They had the car ready to show and it was exactly as described. We purchased 10 minutes later and we love the car. Great service and a fair price. This is how business should work, both happy,.
Thank you so much to John, German, and the mechanic! (Sorry couldn’t remember his name) they went WAY above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of and the car ran well. Thank you guys!!
Very impressed with John and the staff at iDeal Auto Imports!! Couldn’t be happier with the vehicle we purchased and the consideration we received from iDeal. We bought a 2015 BMW X5 3.5 xDrive with the MSport package. The comparative price beat local BMW dealership pricing by $7-8k. Moreover, John and his staff took care of a strut issue pre-purchase, as well as getting the wheels refinished. The car was immaculate when we picked it up, and we left with a full gas tank!I highly recommend the team at iDeal!!Greg O.
John was knowledgeable and readily shared vehicle history for the inventory I considered. Buying process and followup was excellentMike K.
The gentleman that helped me gave me the time I needed to check things out and never once got pushy. He informed me about everything I needed to know and answered all of my questions. I felt that he treated me with fairness and respect. I love my newer car!Thanks Max!
Great experience and a great deal on my Lexus IS. Without a doubt I felt like I made the right decision on doing business with iDeal.I get so many compliments on the car and I really dont have anything bad to say. There was an issue with a tire and a window fuse and they were taken care of without a whole lot of hassle.Do your research before you go in. Price around and then visit. Once you speak to the salesman (management in my case) you will see what Im talking about.
I had a fantastic experience at iDeal Auto Imports and would gladly recommend to anyone. After purchasing my BMW, I had a minor issue with the TPM. They paid for the BMW dealer to check it out and then they fixed it in a very timely manner. I was also impressed with the service. The owner (German) returned all my call in a timely fashion and was always courteous.
Staffs not pushy to make a sale. Very nice fleet of vehicles to choose from proactive fast sales team...In and out about 1hr.I Love the Infinity Q50, would highly recommend.
My vehicle purchase experience was exceptional at iDeal Auto Imports. Max as well as the other staff were very polite, patient and exercised respectable business ethic. My vehicle was very clean and looked as if it had just rolled off of the factory floor! I am recommending any and all family and friends to do business with Max. You wont find a luxury vehicle for the quality and unbeatable pricing anywhere else, other than at iDeal Auto Imports! And, I am being more than honest.
Very responsive regarding an email inquiry about a specific car.
Service quality was amazing. John was great to work with and made what could be a stressful situation into something easy and carefree. I’ll look here first when I’m ready to purchase again.
We are enjoying our purchase (top down weather finally) and are pleased with the value we received for our money. Great place to shop for your next slightly used auto.
I can not say enough good things about Max and Ideal Auto. I was treated very fair from price, to service, to quality! As a matter of fact I was so happy with my experience my son recently bought his car from Ideal Auto. I would recommend buying your car from Max/Ideal Auto anytime. You will not be disappointed!! You will not even realize you when through the whole car buying experience, it was that pleasant of an experience. I will but my next CAR from IDEAL AUTO IMPORTS! THANKS MAX!!!
First rate professional experience buying a car at iDeal.. Very friendly service...very smooth. Nice guys....
The lobby and offices of the place arent incredibly fancy, but Im very much okay with that. I feel like that maybe represents my experience at iDeal pretty well: no frills or impostor-ing, just good service and no BS.When I showed up, there was just one gentleman working: John Gossett. I worked with him throughout the entire process. He was very forthcoming, didnt give me any kind of run-around, and was very reasonable with the questions and requests that I had.I will absolutely be keeping John and iDeal in mind for future vehicle purchases.
Highly recommend. Straight up car dealer. Great to work with. Unbelievable selection. Ask for John
I recently bought a 2006 Scion tC from iDeal Auto Imports. I love it! I have been recommending them to everyone who asks where I got it and anyone who has been looking for a new car.I had the best experience. Max was so helpful and everyone else there seemed to nice. Max was honest about the car..it needed new control arm bushings and an air filter. I brought it in AFTER I purchased the car and they fixed it free of charge. After I had those things fixed, I noticed my car shaking a bit. I called them right away explaining everything and Max told me to bring it back in for full inspection. They adjusted to motor mounts for me free of charge!! I couldnt believe it. This is the best service Ive ever had anywhere.I will keep recommending them to everyone who is looking to get a new car. They are honest, helpful, and not pushy. Ive never had a place that Id recommend as much as iDeal. I will be going there when I decided to get a new car in the future!
John was awesome and helpful and while I ended up financing elsewhere for a better rate could not have been happier with my experience or my car! They really had a great selection of vehicles
Just bought my BMW from Ideal and I love it. Great customer service as well!
