I recently stopped by Nimey's New Generation Cars to talk to Owner Matt Nimey and Sales Manager Matt Adams about what makes their dealership particularly unique. Nimey’s has been a family business since it was started in 1964, and that’s how they treat their customers: like family.

That long history, and having their roots in auto repair, is one of the things that makes Nimey’s unique.

What most people don't realize about getting a used car from a place like Nimey's that sells and services vehicles, is how it helps your car keep its value. If you buy a car from Nimey’s, and then want to trade it in a few years down the road, if they service your car - they know your car, and its history and will be able to price it accurately for trade-in.

Maybe you’re wondering why I chose to buy a used car instead of a new one. One word: depreciation. Matt Nimey explained to me how they look at the prices of both new and used cars all the time and how new cars depreciate far more, and more quickly. When you buy used, the original owner already took the financial hit for you.

You might be getting a used car, but you can rest assured that they have looked over everything so that you can feel comfortable driving it. This is another place where that 50-year experience in service and repair comes in. Every car Nimey’s sells is put through a rigorous all-point inspection. They really go over the whole vehicle - from nose to tail, and make sure it’s in great shape. They even complete all the manufacturer’s suggested service.

I also love that Nimey's New Generation Cars puts nothing but their best prices online because they want people to come see them, and know they’ll have best experience and best value. They're confident in their customer service, prices, and quality of their cars.

I've probably got another 6 months to a year before I'm ready to purchase a new ride, but I know when I do I know I'm going to be doing business with Nimey's New Generation Cars, which is located at 2104 Dwyer Avenue in Utica.
