Kevin Fink helped us out in buying our used vehicle. He was pleasant and got paperwork knocked out pretty quick. Explained to us what he needed from the bank that financed the vehicle. The vehicle was clean and the plates came in very fast. Lots of great deals at Lightning Motorsports! read more

Lightning Motorsports - Great deals on used cars! - Car Dealers Near Me - Grand Prairie, Texas

Fair price for car I bought fair trade value for my trade. Cleans inventor and a good looking well organized lot. Thanks Kevin and Jeremy read more

Do NOT go here unless you enjoy throwing away your buying dollars. Marked up 20-30%. States AutoTrader is the "sale" price but when you get to the lot the sticker is way higher. Typical bait-and-switch tactic. Kevin is a sleazy car salesman that only likes to hear the sound of his own voice. It's a one-way conversation. Save yourself the headaches and buy elsewhere from a reputable place of business. read more

Best car buying experience. Purchased my Volvo XC90. Friendly fast service. Never bought a car, paperwork and all so quickly. Highly recommend! read more

Lightning Motorsports - My Car - Car Dealers Near Me - Grand Prairie, Texas

Jeremi, Kevin, Noah, they're all great. Just bought my son's first car here after looking for about 3 months. They blew everyone out of the water with how they treated us. Loved working with these guys. read more

This was probably the easiest car buying experience that my husband and I have ever had. I spotted a 2006 Lexus RX400h on Autotrader that was posted by Lightning Motorsports for an unbelievable price. I've been wanting this car FOREVER and the price almost seemed too good to be true. So, my husband contacted them and we scheduled an appointment to check it out. Beforehand, we ran a CarFax on the car and it was clean. We also asked if it was ok to take the car to a Lexus dealership to get it checked out. No issues there. We made the drive up the Grand Prairie from just outside of Austin. We decided to sell my current car privately so we didnt have a trade in. We were already pre-approved with USAA so we basically walked in with a blank check. We took the car to the Lexus dealership in Dallas about 30 mins away. They said everything was in great condition and the only thing that would need replacing would be the wiper blades. After driving it for a while, knowing it was in good condition, we were sold! We returned to the dealership in 2 hours and said we would take the car. We signed a few papers, handed them the check and we were done. It was that easy. Very nice, informative and professional staff! I've had the car 2 months now and it's been great! Oh, and I just wanted to note that they give military, police & fire $$ off their purchase. read more

DO NOT GO HERE TO BUY YOUR NEXT CAR!!!! I bought a 2008 BMW 335i from Lightning Motorsports in Jan 2013. The car looked good and drove like it should and the sales guy "Bobby Bphonsavat " is ok in customer service, not 100% professional and nothing as they advertise about the guy on their website. The just make it look good but in reality is full of shit "excuse my language". I did find some issues with the car and they said they will get it fix for me before I purchase the car. Long story short, after 3 weeks of purchased the vehicle, the engine light popped on and said "engine overheating" and I called them back to complain and Bobby said "let me ask my technician and will get back with you" for about 3 times every time. He never called me back to see what they can do to help solve this issue. In conclusion, ITS MY FIRST AND LAST TIME BUYING A HIGH END CAR FROM THIS DEALERSHIP. I now have to put out $1500 to repair. read more

Purchased a car from Bobby, sold me a vehicle that was suppose to have a clean car fax with no accidents. I didnt find out about 8 months later when I went to trade it in, it was involved in a rear end collision in 2014. It automatically depreciated the value by a few thousand. Very disappointed with how Bobby handled the sale. I will never buy from them again. read more

I was looking for a Roush Mustang/Saleen/Shelby for the past several months. Working with Kevin was fantastic experience. He was able to provide me extensive background on the Roush Stage 3 he had on his lot, to include tire thread life and cosmetic imperfections that you would not notice until several months owning the car. Based on his information, customer service, and superb online photos, I flew into DFW from DC to test drive the Roush. Upon my arrive, the vehicle was better than expected. If you find a vehicle at Lightning Motorsports, take the time to fly in and test drive one of their vehicles.....I did....and will do it again. read more

I drove up from Austin purchase a car I saw on the Auto Trader App. The car was as advertised and Kevin was very responsive to all my questions regarding the features that I needed answered before making the driving up to Grand Prairie. I have an 8-week old at home, so it was important to me that the buying process was efficient, professional and easy. All the documentation was teed up when I got there and the transaction was incredibly quick and painless. I financed through the dealership and the rate I got was very competitive. I'd recommend Kevin and Lightning to anyone considering a purchase. read more

I have purchased 3 vehicles from Lightning (2 cars, 1 boat...yes, they sell boats (RV's too!)). The Lightning crew has exceeded my expectations every time. Lightning found the vehicle I wanted (Honda CR-V Touring) at an unbeatable price. To top it off, they were able to provide financing that beat my credit union. After flying in to Dallas, I was greeted with a freshly detailed SUV and a full tank of gas. If you are looking for a friendly, knowledgeable and (most importantly) honest car dealer...look no further. Thanks Heather and Kevin for another awesome car buying experience! I will return. :) read more

First off, this was a FANTASTIC buying experience! Kevin and Bobby are AWESOME. They are friendly, personal, don't pressure you and we're quick to respond. I knew what car I was looking for and visited about 4 or 5 different dealerships looking at similar cars. I set up a test drive with Bobby and he had the car waiting out front for me as soon as I arrived. They let me take the car for a drive and let me do all my inspecting and looking without that "looking over your shoulder feeling". They answered all my questions and truly made me feel comfortable in the process. THEY DID NOT PRESSURE ME WHATSOEVER and this was the best aspect of the entire process. Got a great deal on the car and an extended warranty. I recommend Kevin, Bobby, and Lightning Motorsports to anyone who wants to be treated right in a car buying process. I will most certainly be back for my next car! Thanks guys! read more

I bought a 2008 BMW 335i sedan with 73k miles on it back in May of 2014. Considering the purchase of a used vehicle it seemed to be in decent cosmetic condition. After test driving the vehicle, it seemed to have a slight vibration and the steering a little loose feeling for a BMW. My father has owned several BMWs over the years, so I thought something seemed a little off. I am a former mechanic so the thought of taking on a few issues after purchasing the vehicle seemed reasonable and it had a few months left on CPO warranty. Well let me tell you how BAD of a decision it was to purchase from these guys... -They sold the car to me with one key (BMW quoted me $325 for a key) -Very weak almost (almost dead) battery. (Batteries for these cars are approx. $250 and have to be programmed to the car - 1 hour of labor $149) -Found out that the car had been in a accident (not on the carfax) -passenger side front door and trunk had been repainted (by the looks of it, from Maaco) -passenger side skirt is cracked with shattered paint -Found out from BMW that all four wheels are bent After calling the manager (I think his name was Keith) and explaining all of this and expressing my disappointment with how dishonest this sale was, he basically told me I was SOL. He offered no compensation or accommodation. Now that a few months have gone by, ARE YOU READY FOR THE CHERRY ON TOP!? Remember how I mentioned that the front end or steering seemed off??? THE F*&KING steering rack mounting bolts were loose!!!!!! If this had come separated from the subframe, I would have lost complete control of the car and crashed!!!! This would have been noticed on a simple inspection of the vehicle which they claimed to have done. After finding out that me, my child or other people that have ridden in the vehicle with me could have been in a serious accident and/or killed, I will NEVER buy a vehicle from them again. I will be discussing legal avenues with an attorney. read more

Applied for credit, no response back its been a week I called no one answers the phone. I stopped by to walk around to look for a car no one helped me. I got recommend by a few people and worst experience ive had. Wont recommend it read more

Definitely avoid this shady "dealership". I bought an Acura from them in 2010 and when trying to resell the vehicle learned it had frame damage when they originally purchased it at auction. The frame damage was never disclosed and I'm so thankful neither myself or children were injured in the vehicle. My family and I are now taking a huge financial hit trying to buy a new vehicle. Karma will come for you. read more

We got the exact car we wanted at a great price. The sales people were very helpful and super friendly. We definitely recommend Lightning Motorsports if you are in the market for a car! read more

This carlot is awesome!! I bought my wife an Lexus and it literally took 1hr 45mins to finalize finance paperwork. Salesman Kevin was very professional and honest throughout the process. This has been the best car buying experience ever! Thanks Kevin and Lighting Motorsport's for making this a great experience! read more

Buyer beware - As many others on here have stated, purchased a vehicle represented as having a clean car history, only to find out a year later that it had been involved in an accident and the frame repaired. The car drove fine, but value was impacted by several thousands of dollars. Do not do business with these people without an independent mechanic's inspection. Highly unethical business. read more

Worst car buying experience. Dealer deliberately sold a poorly built vehicle and will not help. Poor management. Avoid. Buyers beware.

These people are frauds. Frank, the manager is rude and a cheat. Bought an expensive car and these people change parts on their cars, put older junk and sell them in very poor condition. Do not honor any warranty. A lawsuit is going to be underway. Avoid this place at all cost. read more

Outstanding dealership!! I found this truck, 2009 GMC 3500 crew cab dually, on www.cargurus.com and it was everything I was looking for. I live in the Seattle area and was hard pressed to find a nice GMC dually with fairly low mileage in the Pacific Northwest. When I saw this on their website, I called immediately and started talking with Kevin, the sales manager. He was very polite, informative and professional. I asked for them to take it to a local Chevy dealership and have it inspected and they did. They found a couple of minor items, and Kevin said they would fix those, no problem. I had arranged with my credit union for a pre-approval and once I decided I wanted to buy it, the credit union and Lightning Motorsports worked together to get the deal done. I had also asked Kevin to throw a couple of other items on the truck, and we negotiated a fair price for them and they installed them on the truck. The next item was getting down to Grand Prairie. I made flight arrangements to Dallas and Kevin agreed to have someone meet me at the airport. I arrived down there and was promptly picked up in a nice, shiny Lexus SUV. We arrived at the dealership, and there was the truck, all nice and shiny, ready for delivery. Kevin and I went through the paperwork, and then he showed me a few things with the truck. 45 minutes later and I'm on the road to Arkansas to visit some family there, and then on to San Diego to visit more family, and then finally to back to Seattle. 3500 miles and 10 days later, I arrived no problem and thoroughly in love with this truck! I have had the truck now for 2 months and it's been a joy. It was everything they said it was and more. Kevin and the folks there at Lightning Motorsports really provide a great car buying experience! Definitely would buy from them again!! read more

NEVER AGAIN, BUYER BEWARE.... My wife and I bought an E350 Mercedes in March 2013. Before sealing the deal, we noticed that the car showed 26 days overdue. Bobby, the sales guy said they already did the engine tune up, but they just had to reset the counter. He said the machine to reset it was with another guy and that we could bring it in the following weekend to reset it. That was five weeks ago, and every time I called, it has always been some excuse. The last straw was today when Bobby said if I wanted a RED CARPET service, I could go to a Mercedes Benz dealership!! Then some female hound got on the phone and said Bobby had been patient enough with me (wait, I thought I was the one who has had to wait 5 weeks and counting to get something reset that was supposedly minor). Anyway, I will be visiting with the Grand Prairie courthouse soon. That's why we have the law. Just to add, about a week after the incident above, they thought the better of the situation and called me to get the warning light reset. Bobby tried to engage me in a petty conversation but I was not in the mood. I will NEVER forget that (rephrased) "IF I WANT A RED CARPET SERVICE, THEN I WOULD GO TO A MERCEDES DEALERSHIP". Thanks for the tip, Bobby. read more

I was in town from Tennessee looking for a car for my daughter. Called up about a 2007 scion with no pictures and was given an accurate description. Since I didn't have time to take car to a mechanic to have it checked these guys dropped it off for me. Once I made the purchase, at a very fair price, I had an tough challenge to get the car since I was in a rental. These guys went out of their way to pick me up when they didn't have to. To top it off, the one issue this car had was a missing passenger mirror cover. Since they had already ordered one, they put it on for me at no charge. This is a quality dealership with good card and a sales group that goes far above and beyond for their customers. My only wish is that they were closer to me so I could buy from them again. read more

Be careful, although I submitted a deposit, it was contingent on vehicle passing an inspection of my choice! I opt to have a buddy simply eyeball the car to discover the bumper had damage(maybe not collision but clearly body lines were off!) and a rip in the rear drivers side seat! Rather than a professional attempt to repair items in a timely fashion(says it'll take his guys maybe a week?) and honor the negotiated price, Bobby in a tizzy offers to refund my deposit rather than make repairs in timely fashion or renegotiate the price as is??? Which lets me know not only had he known about these items but likely hopes to sell this car online and not have to make the repairs or pass the blame??? Again just be careful!!! Thanks Again Bobby for saving me a headache, maybe the next guy will not ask all those pesky questions!!! read more

I bought a car the beginning of July from lightning motor sports. Bobby Bphonsavat was my car sales person and he was awesome!! He was patience, knowledgeable and just oh so helpful. This was my first car purchase ever and he made it so easy and got it done oh so fast. I was so worried about the process but he pretty much handled everything and just called me when I was ready to pick up my car. When I arrived to pick up my car it cleaned inside and out. Super detailed and just in a phenomenal condition. He ran through everything and anything I had questions about in the car. I never once questioned or had any bad feeling about the car, service and integrity of my purchase. I love love love my lexus ls 460 f sport. Looks amazing and feels amazing. Top notch quality, deal and the best customer service I've ever had. My fears of buying a car is gone. I highly recommend this place. Great service, amazing car selections and oh so easy. Also, just be up front and Frank and they will help you as much as they can to help you purchase a car! Thanks Bobby Bphonsavat! Your the best!! Btw. I'm so in love with my car, your awesome!! read more

I was searching for an Aston Martin V12 Vantage for over 18 months. Buying a 3 year old car with all the exact specifications as when selecting options from new caused me to search nation wide. I had already traveled to the city of a prospective car that I was going to see the next morning and perhaps purchase, as it was as close to the specifications I was looking for. Before my appointment, on a whim, I decided to search the web one more time for the exact car. That's when I found a car of exact specifications and options from Lightning Motorsports. Now the details, I called Lightning Motorsport (LM), and spoke to someone that didn't know too much about the car. As I was about to make a decision on another Vantage the next day, the sales person knew I was under a time constraint and told me he'd get me in touch with Heather, the owner of LM, who knew the most about the car. I was able to ask all the questions very directly and Heather answered immediately with no hesitation and the answers she wasn't sure about, she followed up with in emails, pictures, videos and the car's OEM dealership network answers regarding 50 state EPA emissions compliance, warranty, etc. To say the least, I was very pleased with the responses and the comprehensiveness of the answers. Being in business myself, this had the makings of a good business to work with and the responsiveness, compelling and appreciated. The next morning, I viewed the car I originally had an appointment with in the city traveled to from a state away. As the person drove up to my hotel, the Vantage looked beautiful and was in excellent shape. All the options were perfect and even had a few more than the car at Lightning Motorsports. The only difference was the color, which I could live with. However, tell tale signs of messy oil stains on one valve cover, and inconsistent discussions left me questioning. Not one to play games, after inspecting the car for 15 minutes, I told the owner I'd have to pass. He wanted me to test drive the car but I told him I just didn't want to be insincere and waste his time. I could have made the deal work, after all, the engine at idle and rev'ing just purred, but my 'gut check' didn't feel 'jumping bean' positive. Afterwards, I contacted Heather again and already had other email responses from her in my inbox. We negotiated a price and shipping costs that left us both with a good "fuzzy feeling" about the transaction. Heather forwarded all the relevant paperwork for the transaction and I initiated a wire transfer of funds. She was very patient while my bank was protecting me from myself in transferring a large sum. The end result, the car arrived in four days after crossing 5 states. When the transporter arrived and the hydraulic door opened, there was my car on the bottom shelf with a plastic cover on it! I didn't expect this. The other cars in the transporter had no covers at all. The transporter that LM chose was professional and truly handled his cargo with care. Just watching him, you knew he was very cautious. Mind you, the transaction was all done sight unseen, just emails, pictures, videos, and live telephone conversations. So, this was my first live viewing of the car. It was gorgeous. Surprisingly, it had a full tank of gas for me to enjoy the Vantage immediately. I spent the next day going through it in full detail. Everything was as represented. The final step was making the transaction complete with the DMV in my state. I took the car to a smog check station and within 20 minutes, it passed with flying colors. Then, immediately proceeded to my local DMV to register the car and get new license plates and current registration tags. Two and one half hours later, I am the registered owner of a very special car. All during the first phone call to registering my car, Feb 2nd through Feb 18th, I stayed in touch with LM. I am a totally satisfied customer. Heather and the other folks I spoke with at Lightning Motorsports were responsive, extremely professional, had a special integrity about them and were just plain 'good people doing good business and earning an honest nickel.' Thank YOU Heather and the folks at LM. read more

This was a great car-buying experience! They offered great prices, very low-pressure and helpful staff, and a laid back atmosphere. We even got entertained by Bo and Harley while the paperwork was being finalized. When we first test drove the car, there was a sound coming from the back - they had the sound fixed within a day and we were back for another drive. We have had no problems with the car - I would definitely buy from them again. read more

I started working with Bobby Via email about 1 week before my purchase. I found the car i wanted emailed him what i had down and my credit application. He emailed me right back with my interest rate and my monthly payment and the length of my loan. Let me tell you that you will NOT get this anywhere else. I applied a few places and not one other place gave me this information up front. They all wanted me to go in FIRST. I decided on this lot Saturday i went in and got insurance on the car i wanted and took it off the lot for hours to drop it off with a mechanic to check it which i advise on any car purchase you do. All was well with the Jeep and once i got back to Bobby he already had the papers ready to sign. We were in and out in about 20 minutes!!! I've only had the car a few days so not sure on the long term of it but it's beautiful. All the cars on their lot are newer very nice cars. no junk here!! You will not be comfortable anywhere else like you will be here. Check them out before you go anywhere else I bet you that you will drive off with a nice newer vehicle. Ask for Bobby!! read more

Let me start my review by saying, that, I hate the car buying experience. It was that point in my life that I needed a new car since my little honda accord had come to its final resting place and died. I went online to autotrader and started searching and came across a little dealership in Grand Prairie by the name of Lightning Motorsports. They had a very well priced 2010 Honda Accord that I decided to go look at. From the time that I first talked to them on the phone to the 5 min application process, they have earned my business for life. Very Honest and upfront about price of car, and what I could buy it for. They allowed me to take it to my mechanic for a pre-sale inspection. My Mechanic recommend some general maintenance to the tune of 85.00 dollars and the dealership was happy to get the issue addressed before I purchased the car. They were able to get me a great interest rate of 1.9 percent and a loan term of 5 years. What a difference that can be seen and felt from the big dealerships that I have been to in the past where you can spend 6 hours and get so beat down that you make a bad decision. The staff was very kind and accommodating. Thank you Lightning For making my experience so easy. I love my new Honda. Great People, Great Cars!!!! Thanks John C. read more

I was lied to and cheated by these people. They were very friendly and all smiles but looking back I realized it was because they were knowingly dumping a lemon on me. I bought a beautiful 2010 Ram 3500 with really low miles on it but it was packed with demons. When I brought it home to Austin I couldn't even get an inspection sticker because the horn wasn't working. It turned out I had to replace the TPIM computer module for $900 to get horn working again and legally drive it. After the Covert dodge dealer replaced it I continued to have strange electrical problems with it. Trailer brakes are intermittent, the horn honks when I turn fog lights on, gone through 2 alternators and ETC. I got played like a fool and all they could tell me was " it worked fine when it was here, we didn't have any issues with it. Also it is a used vehicle therefor we do not warranty anything". If you are shopping for a used vehicle avoid these scum. I recommend Texas Direct Auto! They have a 30 DAY money back guarantee that they hold true!! I have seen it happen with my own eyes. Thanks to Lighting Motorsports I have a truck I can't even sale because it is so plagued with issues. read more

I want to Thank Kevin for the car. He stated the car was in perfect condition and to me it was better than perfect condition and well worth the 2 hour drive. I would not hesitate to do business with him again and would recommend him to everyone. I was in and out within 1 hour. read more

We purchased a vehicle sight unseen from Kevin. We live in NY and they are in Texas. The company's professionalism is to be commended. The vehicle was everything they described. Kevin took care of everything from start to finish. I would definitely purchase again from Lightning Motorsports. read more

Purchased a 2015 Silverado HD2500 Duramax sight unseen from Las Vegas. Spoke to Kevin on the phone for 3 days prior to scheduling my flight to Dallas DFW from Las Vegas getting paperwork complete and wiring my down payment. This was a $58K vehicle with 10k miles and was nine months old and advertised to be in excellent condition. Arrived on a Thursday morning prior to store opening hours and was prepared to drive the 17.5 hours back to Vegas in the new truck! Was excited beyond words as I have not purchased a "new to me" vehicle in 14 years. Dealership opened at 9:30am and was sitting on the concrete patio table when the doors were unlocked. Went inside and started finalizing the paperwork while one of the employees pulled the truck around front. It was awesome and everything I expected! Went outside and started looking the truck over to make sure it was in the condition Kevin represented "that truck is perfect with not a scratch or door ding in it"! I still have the email from him outlining the condition of the vehicle. Upon opening the drivers front door I noticed several issues with the truck. At the bottom of the sill plate the were two deep dents about the size of a dime and a 10" strip by 1/2" wide of paint missing that had been rubbed off. A cut 1" long through the leather in the drivers door panel and a dime sized chip in the paint on the fender flair that had been painted and installed less than three days earlier. I was in shock! A truck less than 9 months old and less than 10k miles represented to be in perfect condition and this??? Kevin came outside and I told him this was an issue for me. After looking at the damage he looked at me and gave me the classic pathetic used car salesman speech....."well if you don't want it I have two other guys ready to buy it. I have pictures of the damage. Needless to say he cut me a check for my down payment that was previously wired to him and provided me a ride back to Dallas DFW. That was the extent of his accountability in the situation Needless to say I had to purchased another flight back to Vegas the same day. All in all it was literally the worst auto buying experience and I felt like I had been played by a "used car salesman". As of 7/7/16 the truck is still for sale and he raised the price from what it was previously advertised by $2k. I will also be contacting BBB and the Texas DMV to file a complaint. read more
