I had been so happy with my 2011 Camry leasing experience and struggled as to whether to keep the car. He was more than willing to go get me the color I wanted and made that happen as soon as I communicated my interest in a slate gray. It was an extremely positive experience without stress during a somewhat stressful time in my life. The only down side was that someone get ahead of me when I was doing the finance paperwork during my lunch hour so that took longer than I expected, but in general the experience was positive and Alan's assistance was flawless. This is my third lease experience with Cedar Rapids Toyota and additionally we have a 2011 Rav 4 so we are committed to this dealership. Alan did a great job. He was attentive without being intrusive. More

Overall wonderful experience. On a Saturday morning I accessed the web to get fair market trade-in value for our VW Jetta. I may have also indicated I was thinking about purchasing a Camry. Within a coup accessed the web to get fair market trade-in value for our VW Jetta. I may have also indicated I was thinking about purchasing a Camry. Within a couple hours of my inquiry, Alan Makabi called us to see how he could help in our search process. Since I had a salesperson's name, I decided to go take a look at what was on the lot. I was greeted at the door with a smile and the person called Alan to assist me. My experience from that point on: No sales pressure, a fair trade-in for our Jetta, a fair price for a Camry (without lots of haggling back and forth), straight forward financing and a training session on the features of our new car...all within 3 hours. What really put a smile on my face? When finished with the financing, we walked over to Alan's desk. Along with the keys to our new car was a package of Thanks-A-Lot cookies! Another great example of the "personal touch" experienced throughout the afternoon. A big thanks goes to all the members of the Cedar Rapids Toyota team! P.S. It's nice to be driving a Camry again.

Over the last 23 years I have purchased 7 cars from Cedar RapidsToyota, the last 3 with Alan Makabi as the sales person. I have found the sales and service departments to be unfailingly friendly and honest. RapidsToyota, the last 3 with Alan Makabi as the sales person. I have found the sales and service departments to be unfailingly friendly and honest. I have tried on several occasions to work with the local Honda dealer but always came back to Toyota because the deal and the people are so much better. I have had all the cars serviced at Toyota, just scheduled maintenance, as I have never had any major problems with a Toyota. Overall, just a really good dealership. More
