California Beemers and Teslers

Best Car Purchase Experience :) Buying my car was such a great experience is not what I thought I would be telling everyone a month ago. I bought my X4 from California Beemers which Buying my car was such a great experience is not what I thought I would be telling everyone a month ago. I bought my X4 from California Beemers which I would describe as a boutique dealership where it seems everyone is a BMW enthusiast. I can’t stand the typical car buying/leasing experience. I don’t have the stomach for the pushiness and sleaziness involved and so my husband saves me the trouble and handles the unpleasantness. Except this time! We went in and met with Todd Kist who immediately struck us as this genuine guy bursting with positive energy somehow at 8:30pm. The car was in great condition, except for some very minor scratches. Todd made sure we were happy with the car and asked us to pick up the car in a day so their guys would fix the scratches. The day we picked it up, the car was ultra-shiny without even a fingerprint and every scratch was gone. He made sure the car was detailed and it really felt like I bought a new car. Even after 2 weeks, whenever I reached out to Todd to ask about buying new rims, he would make sure I am 100% happy with the car. I am not used to that kind of after-purchase experience and was very impressed when he offered me a complementary odor treatment for the car. He didn’t act like “am doing you a favor” kind of thing, instead he came across as really really wanting me and my husband to be happy with our new car and would go above and beyond to help us. If you are thinking about buying a BMW, definitely stop by California Beemers and ask for Todd, I promise you a superior salesman and just an awesome guy. Many Thanks :) More

Most unprofessional dealer and staff This dealership and it's staff define the true meaning of used car salesman. I recommend staying away and shopping around.

Beyond the call of duty We think that the level of service was truly excellent. The trade in auto had a sticker that was even retrieved after the car went to auction saving We think that the level of service was truly excellent. The trade in auto had a sticker that was even retrieved after the car went to auction saving me a $125 dollar fine. I was so grateful I brought in a Mango cake from Red Robin. All my questions were answered and the cars were priced to sell. If I may offer one suggestion, it is that the parking lot for customers needs more space as it sometimes gets rather congested and as your reputation continues to grow there will probably be even more customers!

Ripoff and liers Not a good place to buy a car. The car was priced at $48800, when you go to finalize the deal they add $600 for paint protection, and if you say I do Not a good place to buy a car. The car was priced at $48800, when you go to finalize the deal they add $600 for paint protection, and if you say I don't want it they say it's already applied to car and another $600 for GPS, which again is on the car already. They promised to send a check for $500 but sent only $22. Yes, that's right $22. Supposedly they sell the most "M"'s in the nation. I hope that they don't otherwise M owners would buy a great car from such a shady dealership. Next time they'll probably sell you an air freshener at cost for "$600," but there's no way you can take it off because it comes with the car. More

Disappointed *Please DO NOT buy from California Beemers*. I bought a 2013 550i from them, My first BMW. The car was either in a accident and/or repainted. But yet *Please DO NOT buy from California Beemers*. I bought a 2013 550i from them, My first BMW. The car was either in a accident and/or repainted. But yet had a "clean" Carfax. When two authorized BMW dealerships confirmed the car had been repainted I called California Beemers to speak to Frank and I never received a call back. I decided to swing by and talk to Frank in person. He swore the car had a clean title and was never repainted or in an accident. We all know when you pay for repairs out of pocket and not through insurance you can keep it off carfax to resell and fool people into buying a damaged car. He told me when I got the car detailed they must have taken off the clear coat and it wasn't his problem. After BMW showing me the signs the car was clearly repainted. California beemers get's the left over BMW's from auction the dealerships won't certify as "pre owned" unless you're going to haggle them down 5-10k from their asking price for the money you will have to come up with to fix what they hid from you, you're better off buying a certified pre-owned BMW from the dealership that will guarantee their cars. Frank wheels and deals you and once you drive off that lot it's now your problem and not theirs. It's really unfortunate because I will never buy another BMW. And it's not because of BMW it's because of the miserable experience I had a California beemers. I tried to take the car back to them to figure out what they could do for me and they wanted no part of helping someone that just spent 36k with them. So consider this when you're in the market for a new car and ask yourself if this is the experience you're seeking. Do yourself a favor and buy direct from a authorized BMW dealership not some second hand car lot that is all smoke and mirrors. There's a reason those BMW's are not at the dealership. BMW won't certify them therefore they will eventually have issues. More

Fantastic This place is top notch! The experience was great, no pressure whatsoever! Everyone was very welcoming and made me feel right at home. I ending up g This place is top notch! The experience was great, no pressure whatsoever! Everyone was very welcoming and made me feel right at home. I ending up getting a 428i from Josh who is a really great guy... he was so accommodating and laid back, he never once pressured me or even suggested I get a car. He just jet me decide for myself and answered all my questions along the way. This was buy far the best car buying experience I've ever had. The faculty is really nice, clean and very comfortable. I have to totally disagree with the previous review about frank..Frank was great! He did everything he could to help get me a great interest rate and great payment. I think we can all agree that with anything we can't always make 100% of the people we come in contact with happy 100% of the time. Take it from a sceptical guy who is cautious of everyone!! California beemers And its staff are top notch awesome people. The cars are amazing, well taken care of and look beautiful. I took my car right to a BMW dealership for a full inspection and it had zero issues And they said it was pristine! If you're looking for a great car at a great price from awesome no pressure people, you need to go here first. It doesn't hurt to just check them out and see for yourself. 5 star across the board.

Frank in Financing is Shady and will lie to your face! I drove up from San Diego to buy a car that I had seen online Oct Friday Oct 27! I worked with Josh who was GREAT and I can't say enough about how muc I drove up from San Diego to buy a car that I had seen online Oct Friday Oct 27! I worked with Josh who was GREAT and I can't say enough about how much I enjoyed working with him! Highly recommend! The buying process was awesome! Then I met Frank, the finance guy, who is shady! Typical used car tricks and It's really too bad because I would have referred many people to them! Financing I had my own financing and he couldn't beat the rate! He said no problem just bring a check in the next 5 days from my bank! He would set up financing just in case it fell through, ok no problem! I wrote a check for a portion of the purchase! Monday Oct 30 I went to my bank to get the check, they gave me a temp and said I needed to get prof of registration! They called Nick the other guy in finance and said ok no problem! I drove back up to Ca Beemer from SD. When I got there Frank tells me he can't p ivied proof of registration and it takes 10 days! He tells me I guess you will just have to go with our financing because have close the books for the month! I get my banker on the phone with him she tells him about the conversation w nick and has had many customers buy from CA Beemer and its never been a problem in the past? He explains he is the boss not nick and he makes the decisions, he is closing the books out! Frank could have honest on Friday the 27 that he wouldn't be able to get proof of registration but he wanted the sale and the $ from selling me the loan. To top it off he tells me to just re-finance with my bank! Shady Franky Strikes! Window Tenting I wanted my windows tented and was told $200! I asked if I could get it done that day Frank responded yes, have Josh call the guy when we are done, ok cool! When I go to sign now the price is $300. I asked Frank about it and his response is "I can't do anything about it that is what he charges, lie because I asked the guy doing it what he charges! Then I go to get Josh to call, which he does but the guy only comes in on Wed! I asked Shady Franky if I could get me $300 back and I will just get it tented in SD and save myself the drive back up, his response sorry already paid the guy! Really are you kidding me xxx! Shady Franky Strikes again for $100! BMW InTouch -Shady Franky tells me it usually costs roughly $800 but he will give for free and I will get a discount on my car insurance! Ok sounds great! The actual cost is only $350 and he is charging me close to $800. Then I go to sign and the cost for InTouch is in contract so he can get paid $450! I ask him about it and his response is it's free I am waiving dealership costs which didn't translate any on paper cause I was still paying xx dealership costs! Shady Franky Strikes again! It's really a shame that Frank feels the need to lie to nickel and dime customers when it was such a great buying experience! Too bad! I refinanced my loan just out of spite even though it cost me! So many lies I'm just hoping the didn't buy a car that had been in an accident and they fixed it without reporting it to Carfax! If the law wasn't on their side I would have returned the car! More
