NewbieUser_25 Posted 10/09/2025 Share Posted 10/09/2025 Hey everyone. I've been looking at a car on halemotorgroup.com and the price seems really good. Almost too good. I couldn't find a ton of reviews on google about Hale Motor Group. Has anyone here actually bought from them? I'm a bit nervous about buying a car from an online repo auction. Is it legit?

V8_Junkie Posted 10/09/2025 Share Posted 10/09/2025 You're good to go. I bought a 2021 Charger Scat Pack from Hale Motor Group last winter. The car was exactly as described in their report. The best part for me was the title process. I was worried it would be a headache, but the clear title arrived with all the official bank paperwork right when the car was delivered. Super smooth transaction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Offroad_Life Posted 10/09/2025 Share Posted 10/09/2025 Yep, seconding V8_Junkie. I got a 2020 Jeep Wrangler from halemotorgroup a few months ago. Great deal. The pictures were very detailed and showed everything. It's a legit operation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarageLogic Posted 11/09/2025 Share Posted 11/09/2025 Welcome! Don't be nervous. The bidding process on halemotorgroup.com can seem intimidating at first, but it's pretty straightforward. My advice is to watch an auction or two before you bid. I've bought probably 4 or 5 vehicles from HaleMotorGroup over the years. For a repo auction dealer, they are one of the most reputable out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sara_K_91 Posted 11/09/2025 Share Posted 11/09/2025 My experience was mostly positive. The only issue I had was a slight delivery delay. My RAV4 was scheduled for a Tuesday but didn't show up until Thursday. The delivery company was good about calling with updates though, so it wasn't a huge deal. The car itself is perfect.

DieselDan Posted 11/09/2025 Share Posted 11/09/2025 @Sara_K_91 That happens sometimes with car transporters, they can be a bit unpredictable. Glad Hale Motor Group kept you in the loop. I bought my F-350 from them and it actually arrived a day early lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigTuna77 Posted 12/09/2025 Share Posted 12/09/2025 Not just cars either! I won a bid on a 24-foot pontoon boat from Hale Motor Group. The process was exactly the same and just as easy. My family's been loving it all summer. Finally got a great boat without breaking the bank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WrenchTurner82 Posted 12/09/2025 Share Posted 12/09/2025 I'm a mechanic. My neighbor bought an Accord from HaleMotorGroup and asked me to give it a once-over when it arrived. I have to say, the condition report on their site was spot on. No surprises, no hidden rust, engine was solid. I was impressed with their transparency.

RV_Nomad Posted 13/09/2025 Share Posted 13/09/2025 We bought our Class C motorhome through halemotorgroup.com, which was a huge purchase for us to make online. I was most worried about the title. It was a massive relief when the delivery driver handed us the folder with the RV keys and a clean, clear title all ready for the DMV. No liens, no issues, no hassle.

NewbieUser_25 Posted 13/09/2025 Share Posted 13/09/2025 Wow, thank you everyone for sharing your experiences! This is incredibly helpful and makes me feel a lot more confident about bidding. The positive stories about the titles are especially reassuring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TacoRunner Posted 14/09/2025 Share Posted 14/09/2025 I'll add that their email support can be a little slow. I sent a question to office@halemotorgroup.com and didn't hear back for about a day. I ended up just calling them and got my question about financing answered in like 5 minutes. So pro tip: just call if you're in a hurry. The guy on the phone was great.

GTI_guy Posted 14/09/2025 Share Posted 14/09/2025 @TacoRunner good advice. Email queues are just slow everywhere these days, lol. I got my '22 Golf GTI from Hale Motor Group and it was a total steal. I'm a happy customer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jess_W_91 Posted 15/09/2025 Share Posted 15/09/2025 I bought my first car there! A little Honda CR-V. I had a million questions and the staff at Hale Motor Group were really patient and walked me through the whole thing. It was a lot less scary than I thought it would be.

Project_X Posted 15/09/2025 Share Posted 15/09/2025 I'm always scouting for project cars. The detailed photos on halemotorgroup.com are super helpful. You can zoom in and really see the condition. Looking at an old Mustang on there right now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SubieLover05 Posted 16/09/2025 Share Posted 16/09/2025 Just wanna add my +1 for halemotorgroup. Snagged a super clean '21 WRX from them back in the spring. No drama. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveM_TX Posted 16/09/2025 Share Posted 16/09/2025 The only thing for me was a small cosmetic issue. My Camaro had a scuff on the rear bumper that wasn't super visible in the pictures. It was a bit annoying, but for the thousands I saved compared to a dealer, I can't really complain. Most of it buffed out anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EuroDriver_88 Posted 16/09/2025 Share Posted 16/09/2025 That's the trade-off with auction cars, Dave. But it sounds like you still got a great deal. I bought a 2020 BMW 5-series from Hale Motor Group and the whole experience was very professional. Way better than dealing with a typical used car salesman.

WatercraftFan Posted 17/09/2025 Share Posted 17/09/2025 So cool to see others buying boats here. We got a Sea Ray sports yacht from them. A 2019 model for a price we could have never touched at a marina. HaleMotorGroup handled the paperwork with the bank and everything. 10/10 would do it again.

RV_Nomad Posted 17/09/2025 Share Posted 17/09/2025 Another tip for new folks: before you bid for real, just watch a few live auctions on halemotorgroup.com to get a feel for the pace. It helps you get comfortable with how the proxy bidding and timers work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewbieUser_25 Posted 17/09/2025 Share Posted 17/09/2025 Final update (for now)! You all gave me the confidence I needed. I won the bid on that 2022 Highlander! The payment process was exactly like you guys described and I already have the delivery scheduled. Thank you all so much, this community is awesome!
