Traverse City (MI)

Flew in and picked up vehicle this week from Dmitriy. Car met my expectations completely regarding fit and finish. Drove it home for 7 hours and was completely satisfied and very pleased. The entire process was great and very professional. Anticipated buying a couple of more vehicles from Dmitriy in the very near future. Thanks very much!

Dmitriy was great to work with—he made the process seamless and was very responsive start to finish. We are very pleased with our vehicle!

I've been dealing with Max at Advance today, trying to sort out a few things ( not their fault, Copart issue). I had also called him with questions 6 months ago. He has been excellent to work with and instrumental in trying to help me secure my intended lots. His service is far above what most people are willing to do. He is the kind of employee you want working at your company. Take note owners, his actions definitely help to promote your company above others. Signed Canadian Captain.

We have been a repeat customer at Advance Motors and our experience with Dmitriy has all been positive. The vehicle we got this time was customized and Dmitriy did an excellent job of keeping us posted with updates. It turned out great! Dmitriy even helped us at the Chicago airport. We flew in during the government shutdown and our connecting flight got canceled. Texted Dmitriy and told him we not be in till tomorrow. He did some looking at his end and found a connecting flight that would be same day. (why couldn't American Airlines do that) and offered to pay half if we took it, which we did. We would highly recommend getting a vehicle at Advance Motors,

I’ve been a repeat customer at Advance Motors LLC and continue to be impressed every time. Dmitriy and his team take incredible pride in their work. The attention to detail, craftsmanship, and quality of each vehicle is second to none. Every car I’ve purchased has been reliable, clean, and carefully restored, and you can tell they go the extra mile to make sure everything is done right. What really stands out is their customer service. Dmitriy is honest, knowledgeable, and always willing to answer questions or customize a vehicle to meet your needs. I’ve recommended Advance Motors to friends and family, and everyone has had the same great experience. If you’re looking for a trustworthy place in Traverse City to buy a professionally rebuilt car, this is it! Highly recommended!

The experience was better than any other purchase. Dmitriy and his team do an amazing job.. and a month ahead of schedule! I would recommend and refer anyone looking for an SUV!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had a fantastic experience purchasing our vehicle from this company! The vehicle was extremely clean and in excellent condition. Dimitry went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect for us—he even made sure we had an extra set of headphones at no charge so all three of our kids would have their own. That kind of customer service is hard to find! We highly recommend this company and will definitely be using them again in the future.

The attention to detail and quality of work that is put into each and every vehicle Advanced Motors offers is second to none. Our friends and family have purchased multiple vehicles from Dmitriy and he makes the process fast and easy.

Just purchased my third Yukon from this dealership. You can buy with confidence. Great place to deal with.

Buy somewhere else. Bought a Yukon XL from them... Never again. Smelled coolant at the test drive - Dmitriy said they were bringing it to the local GM dealer to confirm any recalls on the vehicle were completed before I took possession. I asked that he have a pressure test done on the system while it was there. When I picked it up I asked about the pressure test. Dmitriy said they tested it in house and there was no issue. Two weeks later my shop told me I need a new radiator due to a crack in one of the fitting locations. Next was a leaky tire... so we thought, ended up being a cracked wheel that was gummed up with junk to hold air... new wheel required. Engine continued to go into "reduced engine power" mode and needed a new high pressure fuel pump and high pressure fuel lines. We noticed the vehicle seems to lean to the left a little bit... needs new shocks and struts... The rear windshield wiper doesn't work, not something I thought to check while going through the vehicle. And still having engine problems and codes popping up causing more "reduced engine power" issues... with no solutions on the fix at this time... STAY AWAY. Shame on me ... "as-is where is" ... should have known better...

Using advanced auto as a broker was such a simple process. I had a few questions and they were quick to answer. I live a couple hours away in Michigan from them so that made me feel reassured seeing their storefront and location. I am glad I went with their service as it went very smooth. I needed a scrap license or salvage license to bid on this car with hardly any damage. No frame, bumper support or radiator support damage. Advanced Auto had me covered and it is already almost back together!

Great vehicles, my first one I purchased was a 2014 Tahoe that I have now put over 160,000 miles on ( purchased with 70,000 and now just over 230,000) and still going strong. Just got a 2018 Silverado with 29400 miles and hope to keep this one just as long. Dmitriy is great to deal with.

We purchased a rebuilt Chevy Suburban from Advance Motors and our experience was beyond reproach. Dimitriy, the owner, was always available, both via text and phone, and was very approachable. The shop itself is easily located, clean and well running. The customer service here was exceptional. He helped us through every step of the way and was very open to making whatever vehicle we decided on right for us. Update 10/29/24: And the suburban is still a wonderful car!!

I had the pleasure of working with Dmitriy and purchased a 2019 Suburban LT from his company Advance Motors, LLC. During my visit, he spent time not only on the vehicle but explaining how they are in the salvage title business. He took time to show me his body shop, vehicles in process, and went over what he replaced on the Suburban. I highly recommend you give Dmitiry and Advance Motors a shot when you are in market for a vehicle. He runs a very professional and honest business!

In the last year I’ve used Advance Motors to purchase 2 vehicles and a trailer! Purchasing items from auctions is a whole other can of worms but I’ve been so glad to have found Advance to assist in the process. From answering simple questions from a first time buyer, arranging transportation for won lots, to processing paperwork and payment stuff quickly - Max, Eddy and Maria / every person I’ve spoken there with has been helpful, patient and informative. Thanks for all the great assistance and service!!!

You're probably reading this review because you heard about Dmitri's inventory of salvaged/rebuilt GMC/Chevrolet Full Size Vehicles.....Go for it. From my first phone call to the pickup at the airport he was professional and upfront. The Suburban was just as described. I am from Illinois so I flew out to meet him. He picked me up at the airport in the vehicle and then showed me his shop, after which I drove the vehicle home. He has an incredible shop with his name on the line. Alongside several of his family members, he works hard to earn your trust. His work is top notch and even the local dealership has noticed. I called the dealership to verify information and they could not say enough good things about Dmitri. Great guy and great business.

Excellent company. I've used them several times, excellent customer service wonderful staff it was a pleasure doing business with you guys.

We had a great experience, purchasing our 2018 Tahoe Premiere from Advanced Motors LLC. Dimitry was a total pleasure and worked so hard to make sure everything was perfect. I highly recommend this company to anyone looking to get great vehicle at a well below market price!!

Dimitri went out of his way on the Monday after Christmas to meet and show the Suburban. This is by far the cleanest used car I have ever seen. If you are looking for a full sized GM SUV, Advance Motors in Traverse City is the place. Thank you Dimitri !

Excellent communication, two major vehicle purchases as my broker went smooth with no headaches. Thanks keep it up.! To update as of 1- 5 -2020 I have purchased now 8 cars 2 trucks 1 car hauler. All sales went perfect. Thanks for all the 1st class service and have referred 3 more buyers to advance motors.Back again 3 -12-20 new account activated to purchase another truck and possibly a car.

I was very pleased with my experience with Advanced Motors LLC. I purchased a 2015 GMC Yukon XL Denali from Advanced Motors LLC a few months ago and I could not be more satisfied with the vehicle. Many people are apprehensive of purchasing a vehicle with a prior salvage history. However, if you know the repairs are being done by a reputable shop that does good work there really is little concern. That is exactly what Advanced Motors is, Dmitriy and his team did an outstanding job with the repairs. I have put over 3000 miles on so far and have had no issues and I love the vehicle. Very impressed with their faciltiy and process. Even the trip to come pick up the vehicle was made very easy by Dmitriy. Would definitely recommend them to others and will use them in the future.

It's been two and a half months since I purchased the pictured 2015 Yukon XL SLT from Advance Motors. Since then I've already put almost 8,000 miles on the truck and have really enjoyed owning this vehicle. We took the Yukon on a road trip from Grand Rapids, Michigan, through the Badlands of SD, all around Yellowstone, down to the Grand Tetons (in the picture) and then to Denver before returning home. The guys at Advance Motors really know how to put a vehicle back together the right way. The fit and finish is immaculate and there are no squeaks or rattles. I have every intention of purchasing my next truck from them!

Last week I bought my first vehicle, 2016 Chevy Tahoe, from Advance Motors. If you are like me, and so many others, you see the word rebuilt or salvage and quickly move along. However, after reading all the amazing reviews and talking to several people who have dealt with Dmitriy, I decided to take the plung! I was not let down! There is such a bad stigma around a rebuilt vehicle but technology has come a long way. I also firmly believe that it is about who you purchase the vehicle from. I did not hear one bad thing about this company or their vehicles. In fact, I heard completely the opposite. I never would have been able to afford a Tahoe if it wasn't for Dmitriy and it has quickly turned out to be the best vehicle I have ever owned. The owner is more than willing to work with you and make you feel comfortable in your purchase. Even though it has only been a week, I have had no issues and feel very assured that they will honor their warranty. I have ZERO regrets!! My husband and I will definitely be a returning customer for our next vehicle. I love my Tahoe! Thank you so very much!!!

We bought a suburban 3 years ago from Dmitriy. We have absolutely loved this suburban and have received so many compliments on it! We plan to drive it for years to come. People are hesitant when purchasing a salvage titled suburban, but shouldn't be. His service is incredible, he is very honest and stands behind his work. Dmitriy is able to tell you exactly what he does to fix a vehicle and even takes you into his work shop, he has nothing to hide. We just purchased our second suburban from him and it is incredible! Dmitriy responds very quickly to texts and finds a time to meet with you. You won't be disappointed! I have added some photos of our suburbans.

We purchased a 2013 Suburban LT from Advance Motors. We had such a great experience and definitely recommend Advance Motors to anyone looking for a used Suburban. You need to check them out. Dmitry, the owner, was so welcoming and invited us into his shop where we could see many vehicles being transformed from wrecks into beautiful vehicles again. We were amazed at the workmanship of his crew and his knowledge of the GM products. He explained that he could make modifications to the vehicle if we weren’t satisfied. He was very responsive to all our questions and quick to respond to text not only during the sale but after. It was a wonderful experience and we will definitely be a repeat customer.

We just purchased a 2014 Yukon XL Denali from Advance Motors in Traverse City, Michigan and are completely satisfied with our purchase and experience. Our vehicle is beautiful inside and out, and runs perfectly down the road. The owner, Dmitriy, was a pleasure to work with throughout the whole process. When we arrived at the shop, the first thing he did was to take us on a tour of the shop and explain the whole process. They were just starting to work on the Yukon when we put a deposit down, and we couldn’t be happier the way it turned out. The exterior looks like new! We also had him switch out the bucket seats for a bench, and the interior matches exactly. We have been looking for a long time for the right SUV and now have found it! If you are looking for a new vehicle I wouldn’t hesitate to contact Advance Motors!

Working with Dmitri was a pleasure. When I traveled out to Traverse City to pick up my vehicle, he picked me up at the airport and took me on a tour of the shop. It helped build the confidence one needs to buy a rebuilt title vehicle. I like his business model as well. He focuses on what him and his guys know best and that is large GM vehicles. I drove home nearly 900 miles in my new truck and it runs and looks beautiful. Nobody would know its a rebuilt vehicle and definitely worth the savings.
