There w We stopped in to see the BMMW X1 and met Joey McIntosh. He spent about 45 minutes with us, took a test drive and answered all our questions. There was no high pressure, no attitude. Just a positive car shopping experience. When we're ready, we will strongly consider BMW and definitely buy from Joey McIntosh. I felt we were talking with a professional. More

BUYER BEWARE I feel it is my duty to write this review so you all will know what you may be getting in to if you do purchase a pre-owned vehicle at BMW Columbia. I I feel it is my duty to write this review so you all will know what you may be getting in to if you do purchase a pre-owned vehicle at BMW Columbia. I waited an entire year to buy a car. I searched and searched. I found the one I wanted at BMW Columbia. From the outside she was beautiful. I paid over 25k for the vehicle (that did including closing fee). It was considered AS-IS although when you buy a pre-owned vehicle from a reputable dealer like BMW ( an expensive one) you expect to get a great car. I expected this. I bought the car on April 8 and within 18 hours I realized the air did not work. I called BMW and they advised me to take it to a local dealer since I did drive over an hour from my home to buy the car. I took the car in and the air conditioner was broken and the local dealer told me whoever sold me the car knew this. On top of the air, there were several things wrong with the car. There was an oil seepage, water hose leak, power steering hose had a leak, an unacceptable tire, and something else I can’t think of. Over $2100 in repairs needed 24 hours after buying a $25,000 car. Mind Blowing. Chad Morris the pre-owned manager did not agree to pay for the repairs. And by this point I was already asking them to please take the car back. This beautiful piece of junk they sold me. I then went up the chain of Command to Nate Cartwright. Nate was very professional and a nice guy. But business is business. I asked him as well please take the car back. He would not do so, but did agree to send a check to the local shop to fix the problems. Fast forward to 12 days after buying the car and I still don’t have it. After several repairs were done, I took the car home and within hours the engine was knocking. I had it towed back to the shop. I called BMW Columbia again. Once again Nate was very nice. But nice just doesn’t solve the problem when you are a middle class mom working a full time job and you finally get something nice to drive only to realize you bought a lemon. Nate forwarded the problem to General Manager David Miles. Mr. Miles was somewhat condescending to me and had me on speaker phone, which I did not like. I do not know how many people were listening to me beg him to take the car back. Humiliating. I told him I assumed I had gotten a great car from a multi-billion dollar company like BMW and his exact words were that I shouldn’t have assumed. He told me that they were standing behind the car and they did not have too. Which it is true they could have really screwed me over and not fixed any of it. But when I asked would they take the car back before I had even owned it 24 hours, before my check had even been cashed, they should have agreed. Not because it is the law but because it would have been the right thing to do. I don’t have thousands of dollars. I work hard for my money. And I really messed up when I chose BMW Columbia. It has turned out to be the worst financial mistake of my life thus far. The car now jumps ahead when accelerating and also sometimes the engine whistles. Yesterday a service light came on. I went and sold the car before I lost any more money. I took a $3800 loss. And I now have no car to drive. Thank You BMW Columbia. Please BUYER BEWARE. More

2014 BMW M235i purchase A big thanks to Joey and Nate for a great deal and not wasting my trip down from Charlotte....I wish I had checked with them prior to my multiple trip A big thanks to Joey and Nate for a great deal and not wasting my trip down from Charlotte....I wish I had checked with them prior to my multiple trips and phone calls to Hendrick. They made the deal easy and non time consuming. I purchased my last BMW at Hendrick along with my wife's new Mercedes........and it was not a memorable experience to say the least. Thank you, thank you, thank you..... Highly recommend BMW of Columbia More

The absolute best in the business We have purchased several vehicles from many different dealers. This includes dealerships I have previously worked for. BMW of Columbia is by far the We have purchased several vehicles from many different dealers. This includes dealerships I have previously worked for. BMW of Columbia is by far the nicest and most accommodating dealer I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with. And make no mistake, each and every time we go in there for anything, they take care of us and our BMW. I am not buying anymore vehicles unless I do it though BMW Columbia. Jeremy Easterling will always get the first call for any of our future vehicle purchasing needs. He spent three years supporting us as we looked and looked for the perfect car. We finally found it and he ordered it for us from BMW. The car is great and we have had few issues with it. If we do want or need service, that is also handled superbly by the service staff. This includes Dean Peterson who runs that side of things and is always helpful in giving us great information about what we do and don't need to have done in the servicing of our BMW. Daren Ball is the service advisor we consistently deal with and he is nothing short of excellent. A very intelligent and understanding person, he also keeps us very informed of all the needed and not needed car services. If there is a weak link in the dealership, we have not found it and hope we never do. We are currently considering purchasing a new BMW and have been corresponding with Jeremy. He, and everyone else, has earned our respect and appreciation. As stated above, we see no need to go anywhere else. Do yourself a favor, and just take a visit if you are considering buying a vehicle. You wont be disappointed. More

Jeremy Easterling is a five star salesman. He is attentive , follows-up and interested in finding the right car ! I would return to this dealership next time! Check them out - you'll be glad you d attentive , follows-up and interested in finding the right car ! I would return to this dealership next time! Check them out - you'll be glad you did!! No other dealerships were interested is selling a car to me because I wanted a 4 wheel vehicle which is uncommon for Southern living. One salesman wanted a deposited just to look on the internet for such a model! I guess he didn't believe I needed a car. I was so insulted, I then travelled 60 miles just to deal with BMW of Columbia. More
