I've been through their facility a few times now, top notch inventory and very well organized! Great staff as well, I would recommend GKM LLC to anyone looking for a vehicle.
Victor J.
I almost felt guilty! Came in to browse and probably stayed too long asking too many questions. But, Heath was super helpful, patient and accommodating. Check 'em out. Stay away from the Land Cruiser though! I need it...

Great experience with the team at Garage Kept Motors. AJ is a great communicator and helped me through the whole process . I am out of state and felt no pressure and had the easiest of times buying my car . They helped set up an inspection and shipping to NY. Great crew and lucky to have found them !
Brenden H.
Nick, Heath and the rest of the GKM team were great to work with. I live 900 miles away. They helped with the whole buying process including coordinating shipping. Never needed to leave my house. Highly recommend.
Wendy G.
Everything went so well, we have been to a few other places that did not compare to Garage Kept Motors. We love our 70 Camaro! Thank you so much for not being pushy, in a rush and giving us the time to talk about it in private. Would definitely do business with them again.
Richard
Every bucket-list vehicle you could imagine, and in a fun, laid back facility. Doesn't get any better. Heath has been great to work with since day one. THANK YOU!

I cannot speak highly enough about our purchase experience with Garage Kept Motors. Everyone involved was extremely knowledgeable, friendly and thorough with their communication. I highly recommend them!
Melania E.
Our family had an excellent experience with AJ and the team at Garage Kept Motors. AJ was so helpful as we dealt with our dad's estate which included a classic car and multiple vintage Airstreams. AJ and all of the staff went the extra mile in handling every detail with efficiency and professionalism.

My wife and I were interested in a vehicle at GKM motors. Called and spoke with Nick to make an appointment. Same day we drove it home! Had a wonderful experience with him and his staff. Answered all our questions. Very happy with our experience and vehicle. I have told many friends about GKM. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a sweet ride.
Dave M.
Great people, great cars! Worth the drive!
Glenn A.
Very impressive collection of automobiles. My husband thoroughly enjoyed it
John H
Was in contact with Heath to look at a couple vehicles for possible purchase. From the first contact to me walking out the door(didn’t purchase at this time unfortunately, that’s on me, not Heath), he was nothing but professional and extremely knowledgeable about the vehicles in inventory. Nice facility also. Hoping to be able to make a deal soon for a dream car
Andy K.
My wife and I have a car "problem", and have purchased hundreds of cars over the years. We have just recently experienced the GKM team for the first time. Nick, Heath and Olivia have made the purchase, shipping and document/administrative process simple and seamless. Just exemplary!!
Todd T.
Garage Kept Motors has a lot of vintage vehicles, all nicely displayed for immediate sale. Mr. Phillips was very knowledgeable and professional, too.
Zac S.
Nick & Heath are top notch! Great people and amazing cars! If you are looking for a classic or even something newer they have it!! This was a suprise for my son's first car. We made the almost 500 mile trip from Grand Rapid's back to Tennessee in a 1974 AMC hornet! Couldnt be more pleased with the car, and hospitality they showed us! Top notch all the way around!
Kurt
This an amazing dealer. They do some many things right. This was the easiest and best car buying process I have experienced in 45+ years of buying cars. The quality of their inventory is top tier. Nick and Heath were super clear and helpful. Olivia at the front desk is fantastic too. Their website is the best I have seen. A+ on every level.
Chad T.
AJ, Jeremy and Ben were very professional. They communicated well and tried to answer all my questions. Looking forward to my next purchase.Chad

Excellent service! Best of the best.
Matt E.
I was initially concerned about the validity of the website and if this was a scam. I can tell you if you deal directly with the phone on their website you will get the cell of the sales and shipping managers. Heath went above and beyond to get the truck shipped and I am very satisfied.

I came across Garage Kept while looking for a restored porsche 911 of which they had 2 on hand. I asked around and found a few acquaintances that had great experiences with them.I moved forward and had them source a 911 out of the country which they handled every aspect including working with the seller, handling the transportation and even the import duties. Car arrived and it is amazing.I then entrusted them to sell a cayenne turbo which they did in under 2 weeks. Another home run.These experiences have both been great and they are now my Go To broker.
Zeke R.
Nick the salesman was great! (there's 2 nicks, both great) From start to finish he went above and beyond to get me into my dream car. He was honest, patient, and truly had my best interest in mind. Nick even recommended lenders who worked hard to find me the best possible financing options. I couldn’t be happier with my experience and highly recommend Nick and his team to anyone looking for a smooth, stress-free car buying process.The only thing that bothered me is the fact I couldn't afford to take every car in that place home! 🙁 seeing all those beautiful cars and the care they take of those cars are close to amazing. hot wheels ... literally.Thank you again Nick and team making this happen!
Eriberto C.
I brought my dream car a 1964 Buick Riviera from GKM. I traveled from IL to MI to see the Riviera which I really didn’t have to. The detailed description and photos were as noted. The transaction was smooth and the GKM team was great to work with. I will be enjoying and starting new memories with my new 64 Riv
Gino G.
Very professional facility
Edward B.
Mostly good buying experience which is not something I can say about most of my other vehicle purchases. I was not a local purchaser which is good because if I walked that place I would have made at least one very irresponsible purchase.
S M.
Transparent and friendly , great experience!

The entire buying process was excellent. Communication was outstanding, with a fast response to calls, texts, or emails. The car was exactly as described, and the paperwork was completed quickly with no issues.
Chris C.
I had a great experience working with Garage Kept Motors in my very long search for a pre-owned Porsche 911. I purchased the car sight unseen as I live 750 miles away. The car is unique and flawless and was perfectly photographed and described. I worked with AJ, Heath and Candy as they ensured a smooth and speedy transaction. The car needed to be shipped and Heath really stepped in and secured a shipper during a very busy time and even came to the showroom on a Sunday in order for the car to be loaded and taken in NY State. The car was perfectly loaded into an enclosed trailer for the journey. I purchased the car on a Thursday and it was in my garage on Monday. I would not hesitate purchasing another vehicle from GKM as they are both customer and car focused. Thanks again, Chris C Florida NY.
Thomas Z.
Team at GKM was highly recommended by a prolific car collector i know. The picked up, detailed and photographed my special toy. They secured a sale price at a high price that compared to BAT but much cleaner transaction. Ive sold on BAT and the sending of checks, titles and transport can be an intense process. Well done men!

Very professional and did a great job

I have sold several cars with Garage Kept Motors and they make the process so easy. Jeremy, AJ and their crew are all true professionals
H K
I highly recommend Garage Kept Motors for buying and selling great cars (I have done both)! They are professional, honest and transparent with every detail of buying/selling.
Shelton L.
I purchase a 1982 BMW 633 CSI from GKM in an auction. The AC was listed as working, prior to my pick up they went through the car and the AC had stopped working. The car was fixed at considerable cost to GKM with out charge. They are honest and the car is fantastic. I can highly recommend this company
Jeffrey H.
Great service….
terry G.
I bought a 1959 Ford Skyliner and love it! It was as represented. TG
Tony F.
Excellent experience. Great people.
Lois L.
Easy to work with and sold my car within four weeks of dropping it off. I received payment with a cashiers check at the time of signing.

I had the opportunity to work with Nick on a new to me truck purchase. He was a great and detailed communicator, I ALWAYS knew what was going on. He had timely responses to all of my questions and helped facilitate the entire experience. GKM is a place of integrity. I was VERY impressed and would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone.
Bubba G.
Nice facility, friendly staff. I was unaware a visit required a call ahead / appointment for access. A gentleman saw me at the door, and fortunately welcomed me in and was able to look at a car of interest. Due to my not fitting in the car, I have to pass on it - but will continue to watch their inventory for future cars.
Greg L.
I worked with AJ and only him through all of my auto needs. He was professional and prompt on answering any question. In fact, he responded to texts off-hours and on the weekend. The GKM team is an A+ service for all your auto needs
Mike O.
A very easy and uncomplicated process. Fly up there, picked up the car, no worries, and drove it more than a thousand miles back home through heavy rain storms and even a tornado warning!
Carrie M.
The employees were knowledgeable and welcoming. The variety of vehicles available was amazing. The quality of their service was apparent.
Wes F.
I bought a truck from GKM last summer and couldn't be happier with the process from beginning to end. They were super friendly and we negotiated a fair price for the truck I bought. The facility is amazing and they let my wife and I look around at their inventory while we waited. If you're ever in Grand Rapids give them a call and go check them out.
John E
Fully recommend Garage Kept Motors! Website is great and I can't imagine being able to take any more pictures or video of the car. Nick the sales manager worked with me and my schedule to let me look at the car - after we spent an hour looking at all the other cars there :)! Truly a car lover's dream! So glad I took the trip to GR to see it. (they are really only 15 mins from the airport) Nick even hooked me up with the Founders Brew pub for a great dinner and beer! They arranged shipping, a pleasure to work with Heath and my car arrived in perfect condition. Candy in the office made the whole transaction seamless. The car was exactly what I was looking for and as advertised - truly being a car from "Car guys!"
R. H.
They definitely over priced the truck I bought and didn't detail all the issues it had. That is on me. Do as they say and get a third party inspection. I wish I had. The bigger issue is the car being sold as is. It clearly had a new optima battery in multiple pictures. They stole it because it "wouldn't start" and put a cheap Econo Power battery in it. Even if it wouldn't start because they neglected it, at least put the optima battery in it so I could have charged it when it arrived. I would caution against using GKM and wouldn't advise my friends to buy anything from them. If they'll rip off something easily seen, what do they do with things unseen?

Great group to work with; quick communications, very accommodating to support you throughout the process (from PPI to delivery and everything in between). Would highly recommend them for any car purchase consideration.
Marshall W.
I made the right choice entrusting GK with our classic car to sell. Their showroom is great (you can see all the cars) and they made my car look even more beautiful. Would have appreciated an occasional update, but would use GK again.
Jacquelyn V
I recently purchased my first older vehicle from GKM and the process was very smooth. I went to see the vehicle, made a deposit, submitted my payment and had the vehicle delivered the next day at my doorstep. Everyone on the GKM team is very knowledgeable, patient, and responsive. All vehicles are kept in a safe, heated, and clean facility. Great Experience overall.
Michael D.
They did everything they said they would do. From selling the car to paying me. They are very honest and trustworthy. I would use them again.
Douglas D.
The GKM staff did exactly what they said they would do in selling my 2005 Jeep for me. Thank you!
Cameron W.
These guys did an excellent job with my sale. Looking forward to the next time.
Lenora
This was my first time purchasing a vehicle on line, GKM made this so smooth, treated me so good I definitely will tell anyone there the BEST people to buy from…they are AWESOME!!Thanks Nick, Candy and of course Heath y’all are the best. Lenora
Al R.
AJ and Jeremy at GK do an awesome job of marketing. Just sold another car for me. I appreciate their professionalism and transparency.
Martin C.
I bought 2 vehicles, and sold them 1. The entire process was seamless. They answered all my questions and aloud me to take my time in making my final decision. Excellent customer service and professionalism.
Keith L.
Had a great experience buying my 2005 Chrysler Crossfire SRT6. Great communication and painless experience. Thanks Nick Candy and Heath...love my new ride.

I had owned my 1967 Corvette since 1986. My first two children were born during the time of my body off restoration.I remember my first son being in the garage and his helping me work on it, LOL.This car was truly part of the family.So Ive had the car for over 38 years.My wife was concerned that I would become unable to pull together the history of the car, and that I probably should consider during it while I was still able.So I pulled together its history and with as many pictures as possible made sure my Documentation was complete and then to finally to find the right venue to sell the car.I looked at the big auction houses, my trying to sell the car myself and also the Consignment Automobile business.I located two that were very close to where we live and I chose Garage Kept.I chose them because they understood my closeness to the car, they also understood the car itself. They know cars!I also liked the fact that the car would only be shown to onlypre- approved customers. They advised, they did not pressure me, and gave me confidence , and good intel on the market.The selling took some time ( about 5 months ).We tried several ways to communicate with prospective buyers.We finally went with a large internet auction house/Garage kept.The car sold for more than I had been asking for it. Wow!!!The money arrived before the end of the week.So if you are in the same position I was in Please contact,AJ, Jeremy, and or Cole. you will glad you' did.Side note, I had a massive heart attack this week.I obviously survived it as I am able to tell you this story.Don't put off today what you know you should do, for yourself and your family.Best of luck 😊
