I had a very good experience, they were helpful in helping me select the type of car best for my family. The process was rather quick and even though , A Pontiac Montana, was at the low-end of their price range they still showed me focus and care. I have been driving the van for several months now and haven't had any real issues. I wish I could remember my salesman's name,  he was young, he was a little cocky but in the end he was right and very helpful.  I am more than happy with my purchase and the price, thank you Kar Mart.

So i was sceptical at first when i saw the opinions and i did that night before i was going there to look at the BMW. Also i called about the car and the guy was little arrogant but a the same time all he said about the car (clean, loaded etc) was true. The minute a drive up the parking lot they guy waved at me and asked if i was for the bimmer. I said yes and he said well take it for a spin its beautiful. Minute later other guy came said hi you doing and gave me the keys. No questions asked. After a quick 5 minute drive i got back and didn't even ask anything just said bring the papers. The car is stunning. I am now a happy owner of 2007 550i BMW AND ITS BEAUTIFUL. Condition like brand new just like the ad said. Thank you Greg, Wally and the team 👑✌️😎 Great job!

Where to start... Well to be direct and helpful to the Online Community, I will start with this statement and then elaborate:

"If you would like partial truths, poor communication skills, questionable vehicle dependability and ultimately less that poor service all around, please by all means buy a car from Karmart of Michigan City, IN."

I recently bought, and had shipped to me, a 1941 Plymouth from Walter (Wally) Froneck. I bought it without seeing it in person which is completely my fault because I trusted the line of bull coming from Wally's mouth. He said things such as the following:

Wally in regards to the car's condition: "The car is perfect mechanically, I would drive it across country myself"
TRUTH: The speedometer is not hooked up so you don't know when you are speeding and there are soo many oil leaks that the car now sits in a mechanic shop being fixed. Additionally, the passenger window is cracked completely through so be careful it doesn't shatter and become a health hazard.

Wally to my Wife: "Yes the car has seat belts, don't worry"
TRUTH: The car has rear seat belts which do nothing for the front seated humans who would get ejected from the car upon impact.

Wally in response to shipping: "We will wrap the car in protective film to keep moisture, rocks, etc from getting to the car"
TRUTH: The car was uncovered, unwrapped and not protected in the least.

The list goes on and on... 
The car was supposed to come with paperwork proving mechanical work, NONE. 
The car supposedly had no major defects, a BROKEN passenger window arrived to my door (confirmed by someone at the dealership that it was present when the car was up for sale originally). NOT DISCLOSED.

When confronted with some of these issues, Wally ducked my calls and instead had another salesperson deal with me. That salesperson was no help because he didn't work on the transaction to begin with. I still have had no response to multiple calls and messages in regards to this transaction. He is a the stereotypical slimy car salesman that most car buyers are warned to avoid.

I am sorry for the length of this review, however if you really read this and take it to heart what I have offered, you should be well equipped to look elsewhere. 
Good luck folks and have a better car buying experience than I did...
