Born in Peoria IL and relocated to Cedar Rapids in 97’ with my wife Myrna, we started our family. Jasmine is now 26 and Jacob is 19 so you can imagine never a dull moment at our house. For pets, I have 2 aquatic turtles that beg for food whenever I am near the 55 gal tank that is stocked with several oversized Goldfish that now resemble Koi. My other pastime pleasure is cooking and thanks to my very thoughtful wife Myrna who bought me a smoker, I have acquired a love for smoked meats adding a layer to my waist line if you know what I mean. I have always been focused on taking care of customers and the last 19+ years I have spent in the car industry working on this 1 customer at a time. I take pride in having the privilege of running our internet team and being able to change the perception of how easy and hassle free a car buying experience can really be. A big THANK YOU to all my past customers and look forward to assisting all the future ones.

Painless Super easy to work with. We were in and out. We worked out the deal before we got there and had no issues signed papers and we're on the road. Super easy to work with. We were in and out. We worked out the deal before we got there and had no issues signed papers and we're on the road. More

Great experience all around, Thank You Alan!!!! First of all, this is our second brand new vehicle that we bought and this experience was by far the best we have ever had. Alan Makabi was straight First of all, this is our second brand new vehicle that we bought and this experience was by far the best we have ever had. Alan Makabi was straight forward, honest, and fun to work with. Alan definitely made it feel that we are joining a family and a great team which we are now part of. I would recommend going to Cedar Rapids Toyota and finding Alan to make sure your experience was as great as ours. We also worked with Wendy Nelson in finance who was able to get us in and out with ease and made sure we were happy with everything. Wendy was fantastic and answered all of our questions along with making us feel comfortable. Thank you both Alan and Wendy for everything you put up with when it came to our vehicle buying experience! You two are rockstars and we will make sure to always recommend seeing you both along with being a returning customer. More

Easy, Breezy, Beautiful, Cedar Rapids Toyota Not gonna lie, this dealership KNOWS what they are doing in terms of treating customer right and fairly! I loved and thoroughly enjoyed working with A Not gonna lie, this dealership KNOWS what they are doing in terms of treating customer right and fairly! I loved and thoroughly enjoyed working with Alan who (BY THE WAY) came on his day off to hand me the keys as he knew I drove 3+ hours away to come pick my car up. This dealership provides you with even Starbucks coffee and sometimes pie's. Alan also gave me a tour of the entire place since they have done a re-model. I have never been to a Toyota dealership but now I know what beyond the STANDARD is in terms of people who care about the experience you deserve at Cedar Rapids Toyota. Job well done Alan working with you from start to finish. More
