About Us
ABOUT ACE AUTO SALES
Built from the ground up in the Brainerd Lakes Area
From a small home-based repair shop to one of Central Minnesota’s larger independent dealerships — our growth has been shaped by hard work, community support, and listening to what our customers need.
OUR STORY
Ace Auto Sales was founded in 2011 as a small, independent repair shop operated out of our home. What began as hands-on automotive work quickly grew as demand increased throughout the Brainerd Lakes Area. By 2013, we expanded into full used-vehicle sales at our first dealership location — starting with just a handful of vehicles and building our inventory around what local buyers were actively looking for.
Today, Ace Auto Sales has grown into one of Central Minnesota’s larger independent dealerships, offering 240+ cars, trucks, SUVs, vans, classics, sleds, luxury models, performance vehicles, and specialty units. Our inventory spans a wide range of price points — from budget-friendly daily transportation to premium SUVs, high-end luxury vehicles, and collectible models.
We serve everyday drivers, growing families, outdoor enthusiasts, first-time buyers, and customers seeking something distinctive or investment-worthy. Whether practical, affordable transportation or a standout luxury or performance vehicle, our selection is built to provide meaningful options at every level.
RUST-FREE SOUTHERN INVENTORY
Living in Minnesota means dealing with road salt and harsh winters. That’s why we prioritize sourcing hand-selected vehicles from Arizona. These rust-free units have become one of our most requested inventory categories, giving local buyers access to cleaner vehicles that hold up better in our climate.
OPTIONS FOR EVERY BUDGET
We understand that every customer’s situation — and vehicle preference — is different. That’s why we maintain one of the most diverse price ranges in the region, offering everything from entry-level transportation to premium specialty vehicles.
Vehicles starting at $2,999+
Budget-friendly daily drivers and first-time buyer options
Wide range of price points and trims
Classic and collectible models
Luxury and performance vehicles, including sports cars and specialty builds
Our goal is simple: to offer real choice across multiple price categories without limiting customers to one segment of the market.
