Buick and GMC Dealer Serving Merrillville, Indiana

Currie Motors Buick GMC is on US-30 in Valparaiso, straight east from Merrillville on the same road. We will beat any deal on any new vehicle. The full new GMC and Buick lineup, current GM programs, factory ordering if we do not have your configuration, and a finance department that works with more than thirty lenders.

Straight East on US-30

Merrillville and Valparaiso sit on the same road. US-30 runs from the Southlake retail corridor east through Hobart Township into Valparaiso, and we are on the north side of it at 1551 West. About thirteen miles, roughly twenty minutes outside the Route 30 rush.

Merrillville is well served for Buick and GMC, and we are not the closest option. What follows is what Merrillville customers come east for.

We Will Beat Any Deal

On any new vehicle, every time. Shop it wherever you like, get their number, then call us. GM sets the national incentives and they are identical at every dealer, so the only variable left is what the dealership does with them. Current offers →

Factory Order and Locate

If the trim, color or package you want is not standing on our lot, we can locate it or order it built. Worth asking rather than settling for what happens to be in stock somewhere. New inventory →

More Than Thirty Lenders

Past repossession, discharged bankruptcy, collections, thin file or no credit history at all. Not one bank with one set of rules, and a number of them specialize in exactly the applications that stop elsewhere. Credit financing →

Certified Across Every Make

Almost everything on our used lot is certified, and the program is not limited to GM vehicles. A used F-150 or RAV4 here can carry the same inspection and coverage as a used Sierra, which most franchise dealers cannot offer. Certified used →

A Carfax on Every Vehicle

Free, on everything we sell, certified or not. You should not have to ask for a history report or pay for one. One-owner vehicles →

The Latest Hours in the Market

Sales until 9 PM Monday through Friday and 7 PM on Saturday. The other Buick GMC dealerships in this market close between 4 and 5:30 on a Saturday, so that is one to three hours later than anywhere else you would shop. If Saturday afternoon is the only time you have, that is the difference between doing this properly and rushing it.

Saturday and Same-Day Service

Service open Saturdays too, with same-day work on common jobs and loaners subject to availability. Saturday service →

New Buick and GMC

New vehicle sales are the core of this store. Sierra and Sierra HD, Terrain and Acadia, and the Buick range, with current GM national programs and factory ordering if the configuration you want is not here.

And we will beat any deal on any of them. That is worth using rather than taking on faith: go and get a number from wherever you were going to buy, then bring it to us. There is no benefit to you in shopping us first.

One thing worth knowing if your credit is not perfect. People assume damaged credit means used only. It frequently does not: manufacturer financing programs sometimes reach further than expected, and a new vehicle carries a full factory warranty which some lenders view favorably. If a new Terrain works for your situation, we would rather find that out than steer you toward the more expensive answer by default.

GMC Sierra 1500

The volume truck

Pro through Denali, usually in depth rather than one of each configuration. Work through the week, everything else at the weekend.

View Sierra 1500 →

GMC Sierra HD

2500 · 3500

Gooseneck towing, equipment hauling and the work a half-ton is not rated for. Section 179 guidance if you are buying for a business.

View Sierra HD →

GMC Terrain

Compact SUV

All-wheel drive available, which matters more on a Lake County January morning than it does in the brochure.

View Terrain →

GMC Acadia

Three rows

Room for the school run and everything a family carries. Sit in the third row before deciding; they vary more than the spec sheets suggest.

View Acadia →

Buick Envision

Midsize SUV

Quieter and better finished than the price suggests. The Buick half of a GMC lot is usually where the value sits.

View Envision →

Used, All Makes

Almost all certified

Trades from every brand, most of them certified, including a dedicated selection under $20,000.

Under $20,000 →

Service and Parts

GM trained technicians and genuine GM parts, for Buick and GMC vehicles bought anywhere. You do not need to have purchased here to be serviced here.

Routine Work

Oil changes, tire rotation, brakes, batteries and multi-point inspections. Book online or call ahead. Schedule service →

Warranty and Recalls

Factory warranty work and open safety recalls handled here. Run your VIN at nhtsa.gov if you want to check what is outstanding before you call.

Genuine GM Parts

Parts counter for owners and trade customers alike, with ordering for anything not in stock. Parts department →

No Body Shop Here

We do not run a collision center. Our sister store Currie Motors Ford of Valpo does, half a mile away on (219) 234-2169, and they work on all makes.

Getting Here from Merrillville

One road most of the way, and no tolls.

From the Southlake corridor

US-30 east straight through to Valparaiso. We are on the north side at 1551 West. About thirteen miles.

From north Merrillville

Route 30 east, or I-65 north to US-30 east if the Route 30 retail traffic is heavy.

From south Merrillville and Winfield

109th or Route 231 east, then north to US-30. If you are out toward Winfield you are closer to us than the Southlake corridor is.

Around Merrillville

The town most people in this part of Lake County pass through weekly, and a few things worth knowing about it.

Southlake Mall

US-30 at Mississippi

The retail anchor for the whole county, and the reason US-30 through Merrillville moves the way it does on a Saturday afternoon. Worth timing a trip east around it.

Albanese Confectionery

Factory and store

Gummies and chocolate made locally, with a factory store that has been a Northwest Indiana fixture for decades.

Oak Ridge Prairie

Lake County Parks

Trails, picnic areas and restored prairie on the Griffith side. One of the better bits of open space in the county.

Local history

Exhibits on how the town grew from a crossroads settlement into the retail center of Lake County.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where is Currie Motors Buick GMC from Merrillville?
At 1551 W. US Highway 30 in Valparaiso, about thirteen miles east of Merrillville on US-30, roughly twenty minutes outside the Route 30 rush. Merrillville is well served for Buick and GMC and we are not the nearest option, so what brings customers east is usually financing, certified used inventory across makes other than GM, or Saturday service. Call (219) 246-4505.
Can you order a new GMC or Buick if you do not have the one I want?
Yes. If the trim, color or package you are after is not standing on our lot, we can locate it from elsewhere or place a factory order and have it built. That is worth asking about rather than settling for whatever happens to be in stock, particularly on a Sierra where the configuration options run wide. Call (219) 246-4505 and tell us what you actually want.
Will you beat another dealer's price?
Yes. We will beat any deal on any new vehicle, every time. The practical way to use that is to shop wherever you were going to shop, get their number, and then call us on (219) 246-4505 before you sign anything. GM sets the national incentives and promotional rates centrally, so they are identical at every dealer in the country; the only thing that varies is what each dealership chooses to do around them. There is no advantage to you in coming to us first.
Are new vehicle offers different from one dealer to another?
The national programs are not. GM sets incentives, promotional rates and lease programs, and they are the same at every dealer in the country. What differs is the deal negotiated around them, how the finance is structured, what your trade is valued at, and whether the finance office can place your application if your credit is imperfect. We will beat any deal on any new vehicle, so bring us what you have been quoted. See current offers.
Can I buy a new vehicle with damaged credit?
Often, yes, and people assume otherwise. Manufacturer financing programs sometimes reach further than expected, and a new vehicle carries a full factory warranty which some lenders view favorably. That said, a certified used vehicle frequently produces a payment that fits more comfortably. We would rather find the payment that works than push you toward the more expensive answer. See our credit financing page.
Which dealer near Merrillville finances bad credit?
We submit applications to more than thirty banks and lenders, a number of which specialize in credit challenges rather than treating them as an exception to decline. That covers past repossession, discharged bankruptcy, collections, thin files and first-time buyers with no history. Down payment requirements vary genuinely, from nothing down to around $500 or more depending on the application. No approval is guaranteed. See our credit financing page.
Can I get a non-GM vehicle certified?
Yes, and most franchise dealerships cannot do this. Manufacturer certified programs are normally limited to the manufacturer's own brand, so a used F-150 on a GMC lot would be sold as plain used stock. We certify through CarBravo, General Motors' program, which is not limited to GM vehicles. A used F-150, Tacoma or RAV4 taken in on trade here can carry the same multi-point inspection, completed recalls, limited warranty and 10 day exchange as a used Sierra. See what certification covers.
Can you service my Buick or GMC if I bought it elsewhere?
Yes. GM trained technicians and genuine GM parts, for Buick and GMC vehicles bought anywhere, including factory warranty work and open safety recalls. We are open Saturdays and handle a lot of common jobs same day. If the vehicle needs to stay overnight, ask about a loaner when you book. Schedule service or call (219) 246-4505.
Do you have a body shop?
No. We are a sales, service and parts dealership and do not carry out collision or body repair. For body work, panels, paint or glass, our sister store Currie Motors Ford of Valpo runs a collision center at 2052 W. Morthland Drive in Valparaiso, under the same ownership and about half a mile from us. They work on all makes. Call them on (219) 234-2169.
Will you buy my car if I am not buying one from you?
Yes. We buy vehicles of any make and any condition outright, with no purchase required and no trade needed, including vehicles you still owe money on. See sell your car, or value your trade if you would rather put it toward something.
What are your hours?
Sales are open Monday through Friday 9 AM to 9 PM and Saturday 9 AM to 7 PM, closed Sunday. Those are the latest hours of any Buick GMC dealership in this market: the others close between 4 PM and 5:30 PM on a Saturday and between 6 PM and 8 PM on weekdays. If the weekend is the only time you can realistically look at vehicles, that is worth knowing before you plan your day. Service and parts hours differ from sales, so call (219) 246-4505 to confirm those before driving east from Merrillville.
