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.

But the dealership let me take a test drive, make a deal, and THEN get it all cleaned up, serviced. Delivery was very efficient. More

Very considerate and up front; easy to deal with I have purchased 3 vehicles from Cedar Rapids Toyota, and it has been a painless process each time. There are multiple dealers closer to me, but I fin I have purchased 3 vehicles from Cedar Rapids Toyota, and it has been a painless process each time. There are multiple dealers closer to me, but I find the drive to be worth it for the superior customer served and lack of "tricks". More

I never thought buying a car could be so easy and fun! I just purchased my first SUV, a Rav4, and I LOVE it! This is the third Toyota that Alan Makabi has sold me and I've been happy with each one. I nev I just purchased my first SUV, a Rav4, and I LOVE it! This is the third Toyota that Alan Makabi has sold me and I've been happy with each one. I never felt pressured or rushed to make a decision, and Alan goes out of his way to make sure that I'm getting the vehicle I want. Alan and Curt Wiedemeier both worked together to get me a fantastic deal but more important, I left feeling like I spent a couple hours with friends. They made the experience personal yet professional every step of the way. I highly recommend Alan, Curt and CR Toyota. More

We are busy and the effort put forth by everyone at the dealership to get this done was priceless to us! Taking us through financing with accuracy and a thorough yet expedited process was also appreciated. It was clear this was a team effort lead by Alan and we felt it was the highest level of professionalism. More
