I recently bought two Mazda CX-30 at Marin Mazda in San Rafael, between April and May. The first one was a used/pre-owned 2025 CX-30 in Jet Black Mica with Sport Select (that had less than 31K miles at the time of purchase and was still covered under Mazda 36K-mile manufacture warrantee). The second one was a brand new 2026 CX-30 in Soul Red Crystal Metallic with Preferred Package. I traded the used 2025 CX-30 for the new 2026 CX-30 as I changed my mind about the color. Soul Red Crystal Metallic is always my favorite color from Mazda, compared to so many shades of red from other brands. To me, Mazda Soul Red is the perfect red shade of all time. Prior to trading in my 2025 CX-30 Sport Select, I scheduled an appointment with Marin Mazda Service Department regarding some concerns that I had with that car. Daniel from Service Department assisted me with knowledge, courtesy, timely manner and sincerity. He was able to help me fix those concerns at no cost to me, during my stressful moving time, while the technicians from a different Mazda dealership that is closer to my new location, were not able to provide me with the fixing solutions after I paid them for their labor invoice. I will bring my new car back for services with Daniel and his team in a near future. Did I also mention that Marin Mazda Part Department was also helpful and fast? They helped me place an order for a small accessory part that is not available in the US and could only be ordered from Canada. I will pick it up in few days. I wanted to take advantage of Mazda's one of the biggest time for promotions. It was around Memorial Day weekend (low financial interest rate with flexible pay plans, veteran appreciation, loyalty promo...) so I decided to upgrade my previous Mazda to a brand new one since I now appreciate the CX-30 with AWD feature more than my Mazda3 in the past that had 2 FWD. AWD offers better control and performance under wet road condition. The CX-30 is also a little "higher" than the Mazda3 and still maintains an aesthetical sporty look. Nick, one of the new sale associates at Marin Mazda had helped me before with the search and he presented me with the color choices and package options tailoring to what I wanted in a short period of time. Nick is young, very relatable, sweet and studious. He has a curious mind of a quick learner/researcher and I guess, he is also tech savvy (lucky for me that I had Nick, as I am terrible maneuvering apps and new techs...). I liked working with Nick right away as I knew that I would be in good hand. I returned to Marin Mazda on Sunday 5/24 to trade in my used CX-30 for the new CX-30 Preferred Package in Soul Red! The transaction went well to my high satisfaction in price and procedure. I got a fair price for the traded car and a fair price for the new car out of the door. A lot of customers already mentioned Ryan Hughes in their reviews with great gratitude. Ryan is Mazda Ambassador and one of the star sale managers at Marin Mazda. I don't need to praise about him here. All I can say is this: Marin Mazda is lucky to have him on board! And there I met with Nick and Ahmed again. Ahmed is one of the financial account managers whom helped me with the 2025 CX-30. Ahmed is very energetic, super fast and passionate about what he is doing. I also got introduced to meet with Rami (I hope I did not spell his name wrong). Rami is a senior sale manager there, whom I found very polite, professional, understanding and empathetic. Overall, I highly recommend Marin Mazda, based on my own experiences with the team from multiple departments. read more

Rami and Ahmed... I owe you my life. lol no but seriously... Buying a car is not hard. But getting the best deal, the best quality and the most reliable car while still feeling like I was in a luxury car, was exactly what they understood. I did my research, but I still needed to feel confident in my purchase. They stayed late with me the night before when I came to just test drive, and they stayed late with me the next day when I committed to my car. I'm not sure they can do for you what they did for me but you better come ask because I walked away with a much better deal than I was approved for, and I have never been a fan of purchasing warranties because I've already committed to my monthly, but when they had my best interest at heart with making sure I would never have the experience I had with my last car (not a Mazda and not purchased from them), they found me a warranty that was affordable for me and worked for me as a commuter. My monthly barely increased and I'm learning so much about my car and the coverage. They took their time and I've never had that experience. Thank you Ahmed and Rami. The whole thing there was extremely polite and welcoming, but thank you for getting your hands on me and really making this work. Customer for life! read more

Marin Mazda - 2024 Mazda CX-5 carbon edition AWD - Car Dealers Near Me - San Rafael, California

BUYERS BEWARE: Scammed at Marin Mazda then harassed by manager! We regretfully purchased our car with Marin Mazda located at 807 Francisco Blvd. East, San Rafael, CA 94901 and unfortunately made the poor decision to spend over 50,000 at this location which ended up scamming us in the end. We purchased a refundable Vehicle service contract (warranty) for $6,850. We immediately contacted the sales representative Sigmund and finance representative Ahmed along with Rami specifying that we would cancel the warranty within the 30 days according to the terms agreement. After we did this we followed up multiple times with Sigmund and Ahmed. Sigmund replied (via phone calls and text messages) saying that it has been canceled and that we would be receiving our full refund $6850. We did NOT receive our refund. We contacted him again and he said he was busy but would send out the check in the mail. We never received the check in the mail. We saw a pattern of him promising that he mailed the check every time via text but in reality the check was never mailed to us. We followed up every week, but then weeks turned into months & they stopped taking our calls and we began to be harassed on the phone when we did call to get our refund. We opened an inquiry with the general manager Mohammad Khan who stated that he would check in on why the refund had not been issued and that he would speak directly with Sigmund. We never received an update from Mohammad even after calling his cell phone & leaving voicemails. No follow up was given and weeks passed. Mohammad does not meet the competency or professional level to be a manager as he is harassing and yelling at customers. We continued to call only to be disregarded, hung up on and harassed. Last week Mohammad abrasively yelled at us saying that Sigmund never cancelled the warranty to begin with and that he's not sure of the reason why Sigmund didn't do it. He further told us to stop calling the dealership. It has been 8 months since we have been trying to get our refund back only to be subjected to harassment hung up on yelled at just to find that the warranty was NEVER originally canceled by Sigmund 8 months ago. When we questioned this and expressed our concerns Mohammad began yelling at us and saying he didn't know why Sigmund did didn't cancel it 8 months ago and he didn't have any answers as to why the cancellation did not occur. He provided no solution or apology. We asked Mohammed for his superiors contact information as we felt threatened at this point. Mohammad further harassed us by continuing to yell and threaten us clearly saying that we were to never call the dealership or his cell phone ever again and that he was the superior. The level of disrespect, dishonesty, incompetence and harassment that we have been subjected to from Marin Mazda dealership has been astounding. No one should ever have to do that after spending their hard earned money only to be treated this way. read more

I have had the best experience(s) with Marin Mazda over the last 5 years. I'm on my second lease and I want to shout out to DANIEL LLAMA in the service department. He is kind, helpful, caring and very dependable. I had a car emergency that needed to be taken care of before a long trip and he took care of it swiftly and reliably. Plus, they wash my car! I will continue to lease from Marin Mazda because of Daniel! He's the very best! Thank you! read more

The buying experience we had with Ahmad Mourad was closer to 10 stars. Ahmad exceeded all of our expectations, and left us very happy.

Went in to purchase a new Mazda CX-50. I was helped out by Justin. Justin was fantastic. Really took his time with me and the entire process. Wasn't pushy whatsoever, wasn't rushing me out, answered all questions and was overall professional. Later I was introduced to Ahmed the financial manager who was also great. Ahmed walked me through a few plans which he explained in full details and wasn't steering us to purchase but rather educate. All in all, great experience from these two guys. read more

I finally bought a CX-5 from Marin Mazda after much research and I had a great experience with Ryan Hughes helping me. I really liked his whole vibe and felt very comfortable with him. I felt like I could relate to him and trust him. He was very knowledgeable about the car and patiently answered my questions and showed me how everything in the car worked. He was fun and made the whole experience a great one. When I decided to buy the car, he initially told me the way I wanted to set up the financing was not doable according to their rules. But he went out of his way to make it work for me and I was able to get everything I wanted and done in the way I wanted it to happen. I appreciated the efforts he put into it. He also set up the car systems the way he knew I wanted them, based on what he had learned about my preferences in the time we spent test driving the car. I got a strong feeling that I was being welcomed into the Marin Mazda family and would have support, and whatever I needed to ensure that I loved my new car and was very happy with my purchase. The car is beautiful and I'm very happy and would highly recommend Marin Mazda and Ryan Hughes read more

Called last Friday and spoke to Claudia. Told her i had a tire problem and needed it fixed ASAP. She didn't have the tire in stock but had it on order for Monday's delivery. Told her about having tires in road hazard plan with Mazda. She said no problem. Daniel called me Monday letting me know the tire is there. Drove to Marin and was greeted by Daniel when I walked in. Place looks new and clean. Waiting room is stocked with amenities and coffee. Bathrooms are clean and well maintained. Hung out for about an hour and Daniel came over to get me. Only paid for the labor to put tire on and tax/fees. Road hazard covered the price of the tire itself. Thank you Claudia and Daniel for making this so easy. Able to make everything happen with ease. Marin Mazda has my business. read more

I am incredibly disappointed after my experience at Marin Mazda. I had been communicating with Franco for a few days via text getting ready to make a purchase on a car. I specifically told him I wanted to see if I could qualify for that offer only. After I was told "You got approved" (in his exact words), after submitting my credit check and also negotiated a down payment. I wanted to move forward. I clearly stated when I called and spoke with Muhammad I was approved for 0% financing and wanted to make sure the car was still available before I DROVE 2 1/2 HOURS. He informed me that he would put the car on hold for me. Upon arrival, I met with Franco, who took me to see the car and to take for a test drive. After we returned we sat down to view my credit check and to see the offer. I was SHOCKED to be informed that I in fact I DID NOT qualify for the 0% and Franco showed me a paper with 4%. When I expressed my frustration he told me I could speak with the finance manager who can call to see if they can lower the rate. It was Muhammad, who I has spoke to on the phone before driving over. He asked me why I could not do 4%. I told him I was told 0%, as he proceeded to tell me THEY DON'T HAVE THAT OFFER (when in fact it is on their website!!). I told him well I was told I was approved and he said "show me conformation that we said 0%?" I asked him why is it on your website and you are advertising that when you dont offer and I was mislead by your salesman. He ignored me and told me he was going to call the loan department. He had the 4% lowered to 2.6% and as we were discussing him lowering it more, someone comes to the door and start banging on it. This man was yelling through the door "I want to speak with you!" the Muhammad yelled through the office "no." and the man proceeded to shout "I want to speak with you for just a sec!" He gets up and goes outside the office and this man starts shouting "You ripped me off! I paid $26,000 for the car and your only giving me $21,000 back!" At this point I knew I was not going to make a purchase with this dealership. They are obviously just trying to screw people, and I was going to be another person. After that outside altercation happened he returned and told me that he could offer me a buy down rate and with these specific words "I'm not going to put that money down, you are." I could not believe how I was being talked to and also treated. He was incredibly rude. I told him I do not want to proceed with any of this and walked out. Its so frustrating to waste my whole day, time, and money for gas to deal with this unprofessional dealership. This experience has made me seriously reconsider buying from Mazda. I expected better communication and professionalism, especially when a customer has gone out of their way to purchase a car. I dont know what kind of business they are running, but with the experience I had and from what I saw, it seems very shady. I will be filing a report with the Better Business Bureau because this situation is unacceptable. A client, as well as a female should never have to endure such as waste of time and effort. I wish I could give them 0 stars. I attached conversation and to show how MISLEADING they are! read more

I had a great experience at Marin Mazda. Everyone there was super nice and helpful. We had Mel as our salesman and he was great, not pushy at and was knowledgeable with any questions we had. Rami was the sales manager we worked with he was very nice check up on us multiple times made sure we were comfortable and taken care of. Ahmed was the finance manager and he was great to deal with really nice guy, helped us a ton, super laid back in a good way. The Costco and AAA affiliate program for the extended warranty was great and helped us out a lot. 10/10 recommend Mazda Marin I will buy from here again in the future read more

I've leased or purchased multiple vehicles from Marin Mazda for myself and my family over the last 10-15 years. Unfortunately, my most recent experience has been terrible. I was promised that Marin Mazda would handle my lease return, but that did not happen. Despite multiple calls and emails, I've received no response or resolution. The new ownership and management appear indifferent and unwilling to stand behind their commitments. After years of loyalty, this has been extremely disappointing. read more

I want to thank Ebin Gramajo for a wonderful experience when purchasing my 2025 Mazda CX-50. I had stopped by on a whim 4 months prior to purchasing my car, I told Ebin that I wasn't ready to purchase yet, but looking. He took the time to give me a test drive and did not pressure me. I can say the same thing about the staff that assisted me that day. When I was ready to purchase my car, you bet I went back to Marin Mazda to buy my car! Everyone there from the finance people, to the shop that prepared my car offered great service. And last but not least, Ebin who provided the best and smoothest car purchasing experience I have ever had. They really made everything pleasant and smooth. This pic is of my car and it's first road trip! I love my CX-50! It performed well on the road, rough terrain and hills! Jenny C (Happy Customer). read more

Buying a car can be pretty daunting, but I can't tell you how much I appreciated working with Carl Dokes at Marin Mazda.

I highly recommend working with Carl! read more

Rez,Rez and Rez! If he is busy with another customer, just wait for him and work with him. Everybody is ok in Marin Mazda, they wanna help but they don't have the experience Rez has. He is the most senior and oldest worker there. Thank god, my salesman who I initially started was busy on my second visit, I had a chance to work with Rez. I am very happy with my purchase, he explained all the pros and cons well and changed my mind from CX5 to CX50 which is the hybrid model. Cx-50 has a more sleek look and it is hybrid! I can do 40 miles with a gallon! I really love this car. Just for the information of the readers, Cx-50 is collaboration with Toyota, it is basically Rav4 but with Mazda cabin and luxury. Same quality but better interior! The details on the dashboard are simple but modern, it doesn't have the cluttered feeling that Rav4 has. Thank you Rez for all the time you spend with me. read more

Just came home with a Jeep grand Cherokee the service there is phenomenal. All the guys are so helpful, honest and kind... they gave me a great deal and made me feel so comfortable.

I felt like they did the best they could for me and gave me a great price for my trade-in. I would highly recommend this dealership... big shout out to Rami and Rez.. thanks again guys read more

Stay away from Marin Mazda unless you enjoy being lied to and overcharged. This dealership operates with zero integrity and relies on misleading sales tactics to push damaged cars onto unsuspecting buyers. We were originally told we were buying a 2019 Lexus ES350, only to find out during paperwork that it was actually a 2014 model. Salesman Kirby L. also falsely claimed the car had Apple CarPlay and a multi-CD player--neither of which were true. Due to heavy rain, we couldn't closely inspect the vehicle, but Kirby assured us it was in top condition. That was a complete lie. Once we got the car home, we discovered extensive damage to multiple areas of the car, including the front and rear bumpers, doors, and quarter panel. When we tried reaching out to Kirby, he conveniently disappeared, and the dealership refused to take responsibility. The general manager, Gerry, dismissed our concerns, offering only a referral to a body shop--at our own expense. Then, after pressing them for answers, they finally sent us photos they had of the car--CLEARLY showing the damage before we even bought it. So, they knew all along but still chose to hide it from us, had the audacity to charge us $1,500 for 'paint protection,' and never disclose the truth. And after all this? Still no accountability or apology from their end. We took our car to a local body shop and they quoted us $7,000 to repair what the dealership intentionally concealed. Marin Mazda is a shady, unethical dealership that knowingly scams customers. Do yourself a favor--shop elsewhere. read more

Ebin was great, he answered all the questions I had, I would definitely recommend my friends and family to go with him

As a female buyer, and purchasing solo, I was initially a little weary going alone but I had a really GREAT experience at Marin Mazda. I never felt pressured at any point, Justin and Rami really tried hard to find me exactly what I wanted and were SO patient. By the end of the evening I wanted to sleep on it to think everything over. After all the time they spent, they didn't get upset at all, or pressure me, they actually encouraged me to sleep on it because customer satisfaction was important to them. I did end up coming back and super happy with my experience!!! Thanks to Rami and Justin for trying to get me a great offer and a car I am happy with. Would definitely recommend and come back when my lease ends in three years! read more

We just bought a 2025 CX-30 from Marin Mazda. We are very happy. Special shout out to Justin, our salesperson. He was really on his game, and so genuine and nice. He showed me how to run the car, and the transaction could not have gone better for us. Justin was a gentleman from start to finish. Highly recommend! read more

Contacted dealer by email, then spoke to someone on the phone and also exchanged texts with someone. Drove over an hour to get there to be notified at the sales table when ready to purchase they charge $1495 for dealer accessories, basically a detail job and stickers at the door handles to protect from scratches. Would never have made the drive had this been disclosed. Just list your true price instead of this dishonest business practice. Sales Manager was downright condescending. read more

STAY AWAY from Marin Mazda. I got a KBB "guaranteed cash offer" to sell my car. Marin Mazda was the first dealership they recommended I sell my car to. In fact they sent me an email that possibly they could give 10% over what KBB guaranteed. Great! I drove there and one of the representatives inspected the car and said it was in "showroom condition." Great! Well, until I go inside and was lured into the old car dealer "song and dance" where he has to talk to his manager and then his manager gives me a lecture of how hard it is to resell my car and then lowballed me $3500 less. WELL below trade-in value. What an extraordinary waste of time and old-school scuzzy illegal car dealer practices. "Bait and switch" at its best. I will be reporting Marin Mazda to the California Attorney General's office. read more

I would like to give 5 stars but my experience with Marin Mazda deserves 1 star-being a loyal Mazda customer for more than 10 yr I have never experienced such customer dissatisfaction. Bought a brand new 2025 Mazda CX-5 in June, 3 days later " Check engine light" illuminated, took to Marin Mazda service department, diagnosed with " need software update" and " take the car, it is safe to drive". Per Service " manufacturer is working on it". Mazda USA and the dealership insisted the car is " safe to drive". No fix available. Moreover, Mazda USA threatened to charge for a loner, yelled on a phone by Betty, Customer Experience representative who escalated case # to her manager. Took the car back. No repair is done. This is the last Mazda I will ever own. read more

Last week when I took several large bags of clothes and other stuff to the Good Stuff Thrift Shop the back hatch wouldn't open. I texted Lilly and received no response, so I called and was directed to the service department, leading me to believe she was no longer there. I left a couple of messages on that line and Sumit, the service manger, and I played telephone tag for a while until we finally connected. We scheduled an appointment for yesterday at 11:15 and I arrived shortly after that. I had made arrangements w/ my friend Nancy to pick me up there and to go to lunch. When I left the car my service advisor, Joshua, warned me that they had a lot of cars that day and it would probably be late, around 4, before it would be ready. I was dismayed, but there was nothing for it. He said it might be my battery and I authorized a replacement if it was. Nacy picked me up and took me by her house to see some work she had had done, then to Insalata's for lunch. After lunch she took me on a driving tour of the Marin Headlands. In all, we had a wonderful afternoon and she brought me back to the dealership a little before 4. When I returned Joshua told me it wasn't ready yet so I went to the waiting room. Again, I brought nothing to read but was content to do some texting and people watching. The technician texted me the video of the inspection, which I love, confirming that the battery was the problem. It was the original and the car is a 2018, so it was time. I had a memory of replacing a battery via AAA but realized that was my Lexus. Joshua came into the waiting room to tell me it was ready about 5:30. I asked him about Lilly and he told me she was now at their used car dealership. I also asked about TJ and he told me there had been a complete turnover in the service department. I paid for the work and he gave me a 10% discount. Nancy had told me that yesterday was going to be a high traffic day, which made me more worried than I had been before. We saw long backups on Highway 101 exits leading to Highway 580. She suggested I talk to the dealership staff about taking Francisco Blvd. beyond the stoplight where I normally turn and get on the bridge near San Quentin. That seemed like such a good idea I didn't even bother to ask. I took that way and there was no traffic. I liked it better than getting on the freeway, so I will do that in the future. read more

I have reached out to the dealership on 4 occasions and no one has reached back out to me. I was reached out to by Lily Martinez. I called and called and was redirected with no resulutuon. So I will tell my experience. This has been a nightmare honestly and I am still not happy with the paint job. I showed up last month to buy the car and it had damage to the trunk that wasn't originally there and happened while in your care. You guys said you would fix it. I leave the car with you and come back to get it. The trunk is fixed but one or your porters buffed a hole through the paint all the way to the metal of the door. Your team attempted to return It to me in the at condition with a new hole in the door. I said absolutely not and they said they would paint it. They paint it I come back. The door is a different color than the rest of the car. Your team tells me that the paint will lighten up after a few days and not to worry (spoke with an auto body shop who told me this is bullshit and once the paint is dry and clear coated that's the color). I bring it back again and you paint it again. I will admit it's closer but the color still doesn't match and you can clearly see where the near color starts and stops. Never let them touch your car. They will lie cheat and steal. Now they are actively lying to me read more

After passing us between four different salespeople, these guys quoted us nearly $41000 on a 2024 CX-5 Turbo premium, when MSRP is $38,295 plus delivery. Most Bay Area dealers are doing as much as 2500 -under- MSRP but Marin Mazda wouldn't budge more than $500 off their offer. We had written offers as much as $3500 below MSRP from other dealers. Then they made a joke offer on our trade-in; 1500 less than the already bad offer rejected at another Mazda dealership the same day. Hey, we were looking to buy two 2024 Mazdas but we sure as heck will not be buying them here. Yuck. read more

i've been buying cars for over fifty years. Yesterday I purchased an almost new previously owned car from Marin Mazda and they provided me the best service I have ever experienced. If all car dealers, shop owners, big businesses and public service organizations treated their customers so well, the world would be a better place to live in! From the moment I walked in, until I drove out with my new car the staff made me feel like I mattered. Unlike so many public and private "service" organizations I was treated like they were going to do whatever they could imagine to make my experience better. Here are some illustrations. 1. I was on a bit early for my appointment but they were expecting me so they greeted me by name and I immediately was ushered into the sales office to complete paperwork that had already been started. No waiting. 2. Carl was my personal "concierge" who walked me through from initial paperwork, the test drive where he gave me clear instructions where to go, what car features to use, how they worked, to the finance manager, to the final purchase and drive away. He was very knowledgeable about the car, extremely respectful, and pleasantly, especially for the car sales business, he was a very good listener. 3. Ahmed, the financial manager, was extremely clear on what my financial responsibilities would be, and went out of his way to find me the best financing plan. No hard sell. Just information that I could use to make my decisions. He found for me a car warranty that was basically too good to pass up that would provide me peace of mind for ten years at a price that was unbeatable since my Costco Executive membership saved me 50% off. 4. I heartily recommend Carl and Ahmed, who went out of their way to help me through the process. Since I had driven a rental car to the dealership, Ahmed asked me if I would like them to return the car for me so I could drive away my new car. Ahmed called Avis and they agreed to accept the car. Carl went with me to gas up the rental before returning it, I gave him a ride back to the dealership, and off I drove with my new car. (After Carl showed me how to sync my phone to the car, use the important safety features and get into the GPS so I could get home)! This saved me two days of hassles getting rides to return the car and to the dealership so I could drive the new car home. Marin Mazda deserves kudos for their staff training. Ahmed and Carl deserve a raise for the quality of their connection to clients. They made me feel like I mattered. read more

This place is AWFUL! I never write reviews but we drive over three hours for a promised 21k trade in, only to told once there 'uhhhh, we will have trouble selling this model car even though it is in great shape'.....wait, what? They had pictures, odometer, VIN, everything ahead of time and agreed already! BAIT AND SWICH. The worst part was it was for my 18 year old who had saved her own money up and they knew that, and we were purchasing a car for a total of $39,400 as well, so it wasn't cheap. These ass hats lied to my face and wasted an entire day of our time. DO NOT go here. read more

What a rotten experience We saw the Lexus online Called they made an appointment for us to see the car the next day We arrived on time on Saturday The person told us to wait while he get the car When he came back he apologized & said the car was out at their other shop for something & that he would call us as soon as the car arrived back & we would be the first to see it He called Monday & we made the appointment for Tuesday at 1:00 pm (first to see it) ??!!! Mind you we had to take off work & it was very stormy The total cost of the Lexus would have been around 25k & we were prepared to pay cash Upon arrival at the shop we noticed other people were already examining it (we had the first appointment) we kinda wondered what was going on! We were greeted & asked to take a seat we saw the other individuals take it out with someone else! They didn't even come back on our appointment time about 1:30 they arrived back very late The sales person gave us the same line my husband inquired about the individuals who had just got out His response was that's not a done deal My husband told him If they gonna buy the car there was no reason for us to test drive it He insisted they wasn't !!!?? Now they told us we were going to be the first to test & view Saturday (no car)!? because he had us came before for nothing Well well We went out with the salesman in a storm Test drove it Came back to the store As the sales person was showing us the trunk the manager took the key fob out of his hand & walked away ugly! Not saying a damn thing I asked the salesman what is happening He said I don't know! We went back inside out of the storm ready to purchase We noticed the manager was still working with the other individuals Finally the sales person came over to us & told us the car had been sold Now that's bad business We drove across the bay 2X We were patient with them But they lied They were so unprofessional Uncaring If they were having some one come prior to us They should have booked differently But to then lie! We got soaked Lost a days work & could have been looking somewhere else I would never recommend this place Not professional at all We weren't desperate to shop with anyone Just wanted to buy me a Lexus What a sad setup they have I would never suggest anyone go there No organization No professionalism Sleazy They should have just told the truth But they made us wait for hours just to make sure the other individuals would be financed which they wasn't sure about We arrived back across the bay angry because they lied Angry because they were so sleazy & underhanded This place have gone under Never have I ever seen a business run like this The manager seems biased We didn't need financing I so glad I didn't buy from these sleazy people I don't believe a damn thing they say not even about the warranty Beware This is not the same ownership read more

Excellent experience with salesperson Nick - called ahead about a particular car, and he had it ready and was prepared with the CarFax when we arrived at our ETA. Didn't buy the car, and Nick gave us plenty of time to figure that out. The showroom is comparatively small, but it's modern to the point of being a fresh take on car presentation probably a few years into the future. Impressive. read more
