I bought a Toyota 2014 Rav4 XLE in 2023 listed at 13k. I put 10k down in CASH. TELL ME WHY THEY SET ME UP WITH A 10K LOAN FROM ALLYBANK. When the remaining balance should have been 3k!?! Im noticing all the add on, and "theft tracker" now that I know better! It was my first car purchase, they took advantage me. I think what they alao did was put only 3k down cash, pocketed the rest of the money and when applying it to Allybank, they gave me a stupid 10k loan with a bunch of added unnecessary fees. Anyways, im only noticing because my car got flooded from the rain. And when filing a claim with my insurance, the insurance told me that it doesnt sound right. Basically the MATH AIN'T MATHIN. THIS PLACE IS A SCAM! And I can't even get my 10k back on the down-payment I made. So in total the car ended up being 10k down payment + 10k loan from allybank, it was 20k instead of the 13k it was listed at. Im so upset because now I need another car. read more

Dont do it, after a few momths, transmission, engine, tires, everything goes bad!! The were pleasant to deal with, i guess thats how they afford they luxury lifestyle. This place is a scam read more

Nice salesman, but their policies suck: adveritised prices do not include "mandatory" options do not allow the car to be taken to a mechanic for inspection before buying refuse to show their own inspection results read more

If you know how to buy a car, these guys are Awesome! If you are stupid, you may not do so well. Loved my experience buying from Dapper, I picked up a GREAT 2016 Volvo that I am loving... It's really refreshing to get away from the BIG bloated dealerships and the Frat-Boys that work there, like Galpin. We need more places like Dapper.. read more

One of the worst places to buy a car. Recently bought a car at this dealership, which was stated to have no issues at all. But a week later, by passenger door lock stopped functioning properly. Another week, and i have fuel level sensor failure, which made me to replace the whole fuel pump. and when i was at the shop, for fuel pump replacement, i asked mechanic to take a look at overall condition of the car. he found that there was an oil leak, which was successfully "glued" with some substance. even though they seem friendly, they are there to rip you off. they will start with giving you bullshit about their cars to be lower than the market price, but at the end, throw in 2k for anti-thief device, which honestly, i wasn't able to even test, because of their stupid app, that didn't let me sign up. Overall, not recommended. read more

All the review are true. This place is a complete scam!!!!! I bought an overpriced Subaru forester here in 2022 and was fooled into a bad warranty and $1000 anti theft device that they said I needed to get financed. And guess what? The car needs a new engine only 15k miles later. These people need to go out of business for real. read more

Came here a couple years ago as a young woman with no experience and left with a 2013 BMW 328i 80k miles with a 18-19k 14% APR. If I could go back I would. Don't go to this dealership they're dicks and they will try to sell you a $1500 gps for theft literally dumbest shit ever they scammed me but atleast I learned valuable information for when I want another car in the future. read more

DO NOT BUY A CAR FROM THIS BUSINESS!!!! They sold me a lemon 2015 BMW 535i in January of 2024 and the car has been nothing but problems. Constant car repairs due to engine overheating issues. They pretend like their mechanics found no issues but when you bring the vehicle to a legitimate mechanic, it's clearly a dud. Still they sell it anyways and rip off their customers. Do not trust these people!!! They basically stole over twenty grand from me and I'm stuck with a broken car. read more

Bought a car in December and haven't even driven it 1000 miles. Nothing but check engine lights back to back to back. Car was put together with zip ties. read more

I am really disappointed in the car that I bought from your this dealer. Although the finance guy and the sales guy were great and friendly, the car is currently in the shop because something is wrong with the transmission. Even though I was told that the cars are valued at KBB value with no issues (despite the heavy old cigarette smell) and in top condition that's why negotiating on the price wouldn't be possible, that's not the case. I bought the car on June 27th and it stopped working July 7th which means I had the car for a week and a half. The car was maybe driven 300 miles if that... Maybe you all should consider allowing negotiations on the price of your cars and truly be transparent on the issues of the cars because I would hate for this to happen to someone else. read more

This is the most scandalous deal I've ever done in my life and I messed up real bad getting a car from these scammers. Just expect your car to somehow go from $10,000 to 13,000 with a horrible security tracking system which somehow costed me 1800 or else I couldn't drive off the lot (I've had this car for a year and never used it) and you may ask why I didn't use it and I'll tell ya, IT DOESNT WORK. They also got me with a 29% interest rate LMAO. If anyone knows how to get me out of this deal with the devil please please reply to me I need to get out of this. read more

This company lied and told me that it was mandatory to buy the Anti-theft device and that it comes on all their cars. The price you see on the websites is not what you will pay they say they want to be competitive on Carfax and other Auto websites so they price low and then they start slapping all kinds of bs on the price when you start to purchase. I traded my 2017 Mazda 6 with 59,000 miles and paid cash for the difference so I told them I didn't need the Anti theft device for $1500 I have insurance. The manager made out and would not work with me on and was persistent I had too have the anti theft or they would not sell the car to me without it. They could've extended a car warranty for longer for me but they played with the numbers and took advantage. They didn't even pay for my license for a year. This is a very shady company. Look at the BBB rating before purchasing, I'm in sales and they got one over on me. I will be reporting to Consumer Affairs and BBB. I will also be interviewing with a local TV station I want to get this on the news they cannot continue to scam consumers. Here's a law firm that informed me I did not have to buy the Anti-Theft device. Please read before buying don't get scammed with add-ons https://autofraudlegalcenter.com/info/auto-fraud/sale-of-mandatory-add-ons/. I will be posting on 4 other sites as well we have to get the word out. That $1500 they could've worked with me on is going to cost their Company way more. read more

Misha and Constantine are great man! This is my third car from Misha. Straight to the point and very transparent about pricing. Will stick to Dapper for all my car needs. Can't stress enough how courteous, well mannered, and knowledgeable the sales team is here. Wouldn't go anywhere else! read more

Believe the negative reviews. If these guys are too cheap to pay for proper advertising, just think of how they maintain, how thoroughly they go over their inventory. And then there are the mandatory warranty and tracking device add-ons. MANDATORY. Who the heck does that? I'll tell you who: someone who knows their cars are crap! Avoid them like a cheap prostitute. One who keeps scratching her privates. read more

I honestly don't know where to start with this one because usually I'm not the one to sit down and right a bad review on a place especially when customer service was very good but for a company to sell basically lemon cars and cars that have had some type of mechanical problems in the past years and for them not being honest about it and instead they tell you that the car that your trying to buy is in good condition with nothing wrong with it. Not only that once you drive off couple days letter Engine check comes on, motor, or transmission starts sounding like it's about to give out not to mention the fact that of how well I was treated when buying the car I was starting to recommend the place to friend who in the exact moment of me showing him my car the car starts sounding bad and unable to drive it anymore gave him the disappointment of even trying to buy a car off this lot. read more

This place sells cars that are not as they say they are. The cars are over priced. They don't reduce or take offers. I hate dealers like this. Also it's not a real dealer just a parking lot with many dealers sharing it and selling cars. read more

Add $2000 to every car price. They add a $2000 anti theft device to each car. They will not remove it or sell cars without it. It's a scam read more

Came to look at a car they had advertised and they fail to tell you about the security system that's installed in the car at $2,000 a pop - I found this out through reviews Shady and sketchy !!! Also the car had smoke coming out of exhaust and smelled like oil was burning but they sound very convincing that all maintenance is up to date When I texted the sales guy about the mandatory $2,000 add on, he went to chatGPT and sent me a vague and generic AI generated reply lol NOTE TO DAPPER: at a time where info is easy to google, change your business strategy - it's not working - it is dishonest ,shady and sketchy... just like your dealership, which sits in front of a taco stand read more

I bought a car there. I just pulled over, and it was quick. They were very good guys, and their hospitality was great. Easy, fast, you will get the deal done quickly and easily. read more

Seriously just an all round amazing experience at this dealership. I'm not sure what all the negative reviews are about? I found the car I wanted to purchase about a week ago online from Dapper. Constantine reached out and was extremely friendly and helpful the entire process. He was very transparent about every step leading up to seeing the vehicle in person. When we arrived at the dealer, every member of their team was so helpful and accommodating. We test drove the car which is in INCREDIBLE condition, exactly how it was on the website. After I fell in love, we went inside and Misha assisted us with the financials. If you pay attention, which I'm assuming many of the negative reviews didn't, they are very clear about what you are being charged for. Misha explains every little detail of what you will pay upfront, what will be financed and how the financing works. There are NO hidden fees and NO fraud deals going on. You also have to remember when buying a used car, or any car for that matter (even new), they each have a life of their own. They sell the cars they have in the best possible condition and it's up to you to maintain. If you're looking for a quality used car with amazing service GO TO DAPPER!! Thank you guys so much, I love my new Mini Cooper! read more

Notice the reviews here are all super good or really bad. Came here to see a car. The price was lower than blue book. Their trick is as the negative reviews explained. Low price but they insisted on you buying their warranty and their tracking device. They won't sell you the car without it. So they'll lure you in with a low ball price then make their money on these extras. They're all smiles and act like your friends until you call them out on theirs b.s. hopefully these honest reviews (not the ones written by their friends and relatives) will motivate them to quit the shady stuff and not scam the gullible without the phony charm and shady scare tactics. read more

MUST READ PRIOR TO VISIT: - there's a reason it's 2 stars - it may be affordable but not after purchase because of all the repairs you have to do since it's being sold "AS IS" - make a checklist of inspections b/c they will make up a lie to make you think it's drivable read more

DO NOT BUY A VEHICLE FROM THIS DEALER. I recently purchased a Range Rover from them. I was told that the car had a mechanical inspection as all of their cars do and that everything was good, no leaks, brakes were good, etc. With in one week the back brakes were making noise and the brake service light came on. I took it to my local Range Rover mechanic and they showed me that the rear brake pads had nothing left on them and the rotors were shot and the front brakes were not much better, $1600 brake repair bill. had the mechanic do an inspection on the rest of the car. The car has coolant leaks everywhere, the cost to repair is over $4000, the brake vacuum booster is bad, cost to repair $1100, seals on the axles need to be replaced $1200. Needless to say they either lied to me about actually doing an inspection or they lied that the inspection came back ok. There is no way that an inspection would have missed these things. My mechanic figured it all out in 45 mins, showed me all of the problems and explained how any mechanic that did an inspection would have caught this. So now I have an extra $7,900 in repairs on a car I just bought and was told it was mechanical sound. The bottom line is you can't not believe what they tell you, either way they lied to me and they will lie to you. They come off as super nice and genuine, but it is just a scam, typical greasy used car sales people. If you are going to buy a car from them I suggest you ask to have an independent inspection done on it. Just as an FYI I am not the only one to experience this with them check out their other reviews. read more

Scummy sales tactics with all kinds of dealer add-ons they won't waive. Advertised price is fake

Talk about ripping people off!!! My niece went to them and was ready to buy from them.. up until they tried forcing her to not only buy the warranty and anti theft devices BUT force her to finance with them even though she got a better loan and interest rate from her credit union. But this aunt is a no bullshit kind of person.. when I demanded that they show me the payments for only the car, they said I was being hostile and refused to do business with my niece.. they tried to make me feel guilty and said how do I feel about that and I replied with how do you feel about ripping people off?!!? By the way, if you're considering buying from here, realize that you're purchasing the warranty and anti theft stuff for a couple of months or 2-3 years and paying for them for the rest of the loan term.. DON'T DO IT! read more

I'm glad I didn't rush into getting a vehicle from here, went all the way through getting approved through the finance company but had to come back the next day to put the down payment and sign the contract! I went over the contract I screenshot later that night and seen I waa being charged a extra 1,740 for idk what, but the sticker price was one price and the price for the finance company was higher. Then you add the warranty 3,000 and I was getting, a "discount" of 1,500 for the theft device. I ran straight to read some reviews boy did I dodge a bullet dealing with them read more

Scam alert!!! Made an appointment to test drive a very used vehicle. The sales people were nice, but their management would not allow me to purchase the vehicle for the listed/sticker price. They only allow you to buy vehicles if you add on their warranty and gps app. Those add-ons would've cost 4k additional. They gave me a "hard no" when I declined those additional charges. it's definitely a scam if the dealer won't sell you cars for the sticker price. Forcing buyers into unwanted add-ons in order to close the deal is crazy. Would never waste my time there again. read more

I saw the reviews before I went and boy were you guys correct!!! Brought in my own financing and was still told I have to buy anti theft device at $2k. If I went through their financing they would cut 1500 from the 2k however the rates they offered were 4 points higher than the one I was pre approved for! Business manager literally told me that because used car sellers margins are so little, they HAVE to push the anti theft so they can make money. Save yourself the time. read more

Beware the Russian lady who works there will tell you how much down do you have once u tell her she will come back and say can you put more down that's the only way I did this and they also added a warranty that does not come free it's about$2,000 once I spoke to the finance company they told me it was not mandatory I was like wtf so why did the sale person told me in order to do the deal the finance company wants you to add the warranty I didn't find out until I had the car in my possession read more

Great dealership. Dapper Car Sales is willing to negotiate and work with you so you leave satisfied.

I had visited 3 seperate times at a 45 min drive. Only to come to find out there is an add on that you CANNOT opt out of. It's $2000 for an anti theft alarm. The guy that was helping me that lives in Arizona is a car sales manager and he said that is extremely high for something like that especially if you can't opt out. I had looked at my first offer but didn't see that add on. BUT they also never mentioned it until I was ready to get the car. It was a waste of my time and money. And I told the guy they need to be more informative. Cause I wasted my time and missed out on hours at work going there. He was like "you'll make it up" bro I don't work on commission like you. I ended up getting my car in the same office building/lot from All Fleet Cars/Auto. High recommend All Fleet but not Dapper. read more

Car buying can be stressful. I came to Dapper Car Sales and found multiple cars that fit me. The prices were below Blue Book and they staff were patient with me. I had a price in mind and they were able to help me get there. I definitely recommend Dapper Car Sales. Thanks again. read more

These guys will not sell you a vehicle unless you purchase their warranty and GPS package. Vehicles have mismatched tires, dead batteries, and very little fuel. Buyer beware. read more

all the reviews you see about the anti-theft and warranty add-ons are true. Anti-thefts and warranty should always be an option. If a customer does not want any of that, then they shouldn't have to pay for it. They also raise the sticker price when you make an appointment. They will tell you its the market value that fluctuates, which is true but, the price on a car my friend went to go see increased $500 in less than 24 hours. They will show you data based on this, but the data seems a bit inconsistent. They will approach you in a kind manner, but when you call them out on their ridiculous add-ons, or even try to negotiate, they will attack you based on how old you look, and will say that you don't know any better, or don't have any experiences (yes, I am talking about the lady with blonde hair). If you're thinking about buying a car here, don't. You're better off going to a big name dealer (Toyota, Honda, Nissan, etc....) or private seller. read more

Misha and Constantine are great sales people and based on other reviews, I believe my situation is not common. Although, they have chosen to ignore me after my concerns regarding the vehicles true condition. Only a week after purchasing a vehicle from them, I noticed low oil and had it topped. Another week went by and I received a low oil warning again, which resulted in an almost 3 week oil consumption test being done. Turns out, the vehicle has severe oil consumption issues due to extremely worn pistons and piston rings. During this test, the technician also noticed that the vehicle had a couple safety related issues that were overlooked by Dapper... a faulty alarm system (that goes off randomly), and a damaged CV axle, resulting in an almost $20k repair estimate. These exact issues were not even covered under the aftermarket warranty they tried selling to me. Everything else on the vehicle seems very clean and works well, to my knowledge, though, every dealership should, at the very least, have their vehicle pass a simple safety inspection. The CV axle is in a condition where it looks as if it has been damaged for years. Nonetheless, it would have been great to work out a reasonable solution with Dapper. Instead, I've been ignored regarding damage to serious engine components and safety related items. I originally chose to purchase a vehicle here because of the positive reviews, but I do not recommend anybody buy a vehicle from a dealership that most likely knew about these issues, and/ or failed to do a simple safety inspection. read more

The sales person here is GOING TO LAY IT ON REAL THICK to get you to feel like he's giving you a great deal. He'll tell you he's all about customer service. He's going to tell you he's worked like at two different car dealers while complaining saying that the reason he left was because those dealers would rip off their clients, which is really what he intends to do. We went in wanting to buy a 2013 Acura, fully loaded with about 105K in miles which was listed on their website for about 12K. He assured us that he was giving us a great deal but at the end of it all, he wanted us to walk out of there paying almost 20K for this car.... We wanted to pay this car cash. They forcibly want you to buy this car with a warranty and Theft insurance. What stood out the most as a red flag to me was that he basically looked at my father and I and said, "So money is not a problem for you" like he tries to read people to see if he could close in on ridiculous deals. He absolutely will say he can't take off the warranty and theft because "it's a good thing to have" but while we were arguing with him about not wanting this service, he basically said he didn't want to take this off because he needed those extra $600 bucks in his pocket lol. So he wasn't about customer service in the end if it like he tries to assure you he is. He would not sell the car because he felt that some idiot would but the car with the price he wanted and guess what? The car is still listed on their website and they've even reduced the price further down lol. We ended up going to another dealer and walked out with an even better car for a better deal for about 14K. 100000% do not recommend. read more
