I had another really pleasant buying experience at Cole European. The most recent was my 3rd Land Rover purchase; this time a Range Rover Sport. Sales Associate, Gillian Penitenti, exceeded my expectations in every way. After our initial meeting, she was professionally persistent checking in with me about her progress to locate the exact vehicle I was looking for. Gillian was a great listener, a fair negotiator, and well-versed on all things Land Rover Range Rover. She understands that providing her usual premium service is everything to a buyer! While my interaction with Gillian was on a professional level, I suspect that she's solid in all areas of her life... exactly the kind of person I want to do business with. I'll be back to Cole European and Gillian for my next purchase too.

New Range Rover Velar....

My Husband and I met with Lucas.... He is amazing.... Lucas took him time with us and provided the utmost professional service.... He made the buying process seamless.... Lucas has a great personality and is extremely knowledgeable about what he's doing.... We purchased our new Range Rover on a Saturday when the detail department was closed.... Lucas arranged for us to bring our vehicle back on a day the detail department was open and made sure we received the Presidential treatment.... We highly recommended Lucas at Cole European... He definitely takes great pride in his craft and provides excellent customer

I highly recommend working with Lucas for your car sales. It was an enjoyable process from the start of the search to the purchase and the follow-through He was thorough, efficient, and communicated well throughout I never once felt rushed or pressured Lucas was detail-oriented and didn't skip a beat when providing the best service and walking through the car operations Post purchase he continues to provide excellent service You can tell Lucas truly values taking care of his customers every step of the way Any future car purchases I will go to him too. Thank you Lucas for going above and beyond expectations! In addition, the entire team at the Walnut Creek location was organized, welcoming and professional. It was an enjoyable, exciting experience and no stress was involved as they had everything taken care of and the process was smooth. I highly recommend this location for any of your car needs. They will go above and beyond. Thanks team! I love my new defender!

See all

5 STARS -- Outstanding Experience! Danny Baptista reached…read moreout to me after I submitted an online inquiry, and we stayed in touch by text while I was at another private dealership comparing the model, options, and pricing. Danny kept telling me that making the 30-minute drive to his corporate dealership would be worth it. He said they had plenty of inventory, could work out a great deal, and that I wouldn't leave without a new car. I admired his confidence... Boy, was he right! I never expected to drive away in a fully loaded, latest-generation 2027 CLA 220 FWD Hybrid, especially considering I still had six months left on my Lexus hybrid lease and wasn't even in the market for a new car just yet, research mode. But once I saw this car unexpectedly next to the black one we were going to focus on, I gravitated to it. The red exterior, black wheels, and red/white/black interior combination is absolutely gorgeous. Add the ambient lighting, screens stretching across the dash, all the latest technology... this car is one incredible experience. And the deal made it even better. Danny was outstanding from start to finish. He was patient, knowledgeable, responsive, persistent, easy to work with, and genuinely committed to making the deal happen. He worked with management and never made me feel pressured. A huge shout-out to Nick, the Sales Manager, as well. He worked with me through the final negotiations and ultimately helped seal the deal with a pretty bow. His flexibility was the difference between me buying the car there versus going somewhere else. Danny and Nick made a great duo and tag-teamed the entire process very well. They didn't just earn my business--they earned my loyalty. And I can't forget Mohammad behind the scenes! I probably reviewed the paperwork more thoroughly than anyone would, but he remained patient, transparent, knowledgeable, and even managed to keep a sense of humor throughout the process. Great guy! This was my first Mercedes, and based on this experience, it potentially won't be my last. I came in simply exploring my options, and drove out in a car I absolutely look forward to showcasing more. Time to feel that elevated experience... That says a lot about the product, the value, and--most importantly--the people. Danny, Nick, Mohammad -- thank you for making this experience memorable. You guys delivered! If you're considering a Mercedes, I highly recommend giving these guys a chance. The 30-minute drive was absolutely worth it. Work hard, play hard. Well done, team!

Stephanie Badua is an exceptionally good communicator and just feels like a good human, which is how you feel leaving the interaction. The dealership has a very positive vibe, and I felt like I was somewhere special with great energy. The manager, Jana, was clearly proud of her team, and you could tell she's celebrated by them too. When I met with her she was carrying flowers, and I assumed they were for her. Instead she was giving a beautiful bouquet to a teammate who had been going through a hard time. I was selling a used car rather than buying one, and I was glad my Subie was in good hands to get it to the best next owner. If you're shopping for a car, I'd absolutely go here. They were as honest as I could ever expect from a dealership, and so direct, positive and communicative that it felt unusual. Maybe it's because they sell so many cars they don't need to do it any other way, but they were also fun and considerate, especially for folks with new families. Just good humans. If I could, I'd like to give Toyota of Walnut Creek 6 stars out of 5

He talked cars with my husband and was knowledgeable about the VE Golf history and future. After coming to a deal, we met Jim, the finance manager, who was equally as friendly and got our paperwork ready quickly to send us down to Eddie - who made all the final paperwork signing the easiest experience. My husband and I have bought a handful of cars, and our experience at VW Dirito brothers was hands down the best experience we have ever had. It was so nice to talk to people that appreciated my husband's car enthusiasm and could talk shop rather than just talking sales. I 110% recommend buying your next car here

Extremely unprofessional and disappointing experience…read more We went to this dealership to purchase our leased VW at the end of our lease. Before coming in, we called and agreed on the purchase price. When we arrived, they had prepared all the paperwork for financing, even though we had never said we wanted to finance or discussed financing at all. After correcting that mistake, the dealership asked us to sign documents for a vehicle that wasn't even ours. The VIN and registration belonged to another customer's car, and we were shown that customer's information. We were the ones who caught the mistake. After they finally located the correct paperwork for our vehicle, the purchase price was suddenly $500 higher than the price we had agreed on over the phone. Instead of taking responsibility for their mistakes or honoring the agreed-upon price, the sales manager told us, "If you don't like it, you can just return the car. We're not trying to sell a car." That comment was both shocking and unprofessional. It made me wonder: if a car dealership isn't trying to sell cars, what exactly are they doing? Everyone makes mistakes, but professionalism is measured by how those mistakes are handled. Between the incorrect paperwork, the disclosure of another customer's information, the change in price, and the rude attitude from management, this was one of the most unprofessional dealership experiences we've ever had. If you're considering doing business here, double-check every document before signing and verify every price carefully. Based on our experience, I would not trust this dealership to handle an important transaction without reviewing everything yourself.

Tire and Wheel Warranty…read more When I arrived to pick up my 2026 911 Carrera, the finance manager spoke to me about purchasing the tire and wheel warranty package. He mentioned that it was the only warranty package that must be purchased before leaving the dealership. I can understand why. About four months after taking delivery of my car, the left rear tire kept losing air, very slowly. I searched for a puncture, but could not find one. At five months, I got curb rash on my right front wheel...ugh. Caner had contacted me for a six-month follow-up, and I mentioned both issues. It was during that conversation that he asked if I'd like a service tech to contact me. That is when I spoke to Tim Wong over the phone. We made an appointment for the very next day, and I drove to the dealership. After filling out some paperwork, Tim let me know that my warranty included a loaner car, and he offered me a new Macan. While in the waiting room, I heard the receptionist offer local customers Uber service to their homes and back. I dropped off my 911 on Thursday, and it was ready for pickup on the following Tuesday. I mentioned to Tim that I had an appointment on Monday, so he kindly arranged my pickup for the following day. The man who serviced my car, Bowdoin, sent me a video of the car's inspection via Tim's email. He was very thorough and friendly in his assessment. Caner was off that day, so he arranged for Hart to go over some of the PCM questions I had. He answered both and was engaging, friendly, and professional. My left rear tire had a nail, which caused a slow leak. The tire was replaced. The curb rash on my right front rim was fixed as well. I've come to realize that a brand is only as good as the people who represent that brand. So many of my friends have said, "Yeah, they should do that since it's a Porsche and the amount you have to pay for them!" In theory, that makes sense. Yet I've had horrible encounters at Porsche Fremont, and it is the same ownership as Walnut Creek Porsche, Fletcher Jones. Two opposed levels of service. My friend, who has owned 14 911s, has his cars serviced at Monterey Porsche, and his stories are horrible. This is not just Porsche, but any brand, Sony, Canon, etc. These are the individuals I have encountered at Walnut Creek Porsche, and I could not be more pleased with the levels of service I have received. Tim Wong Hart Benson Caner Nisanoglu Kasia Ksarzynski Bowdoin I've always contended that the leadership of any organization is reflected in the staff. My compliments to the manager of Walnut Creek Porsche. Thank you.
