BMW of San Luis Obispo

It was such a good experience at BMW San Luis Obispo! My local dealership accidentally sold my car and i had to look out of state. They responded quickly and was even able to match the discount and make sur local dealership accidentally sold my car and i had to look out of state. They responded quickly and was even able to match the discount and make sure I get my dream car! Working with Bobby, Jose, and Raymond was truly a no pressure, and honest experience. They were quick to respond on what they’re able to do for me without shading some potential extra charges. And not just because they’re the managers they gave me hard times or made them feel unapproachable! It really is something you don’t see often in dealerships! I’d def recommend anyone in state or out of state to inquire and even acquire cars from them! They now have a permanent customer! More

Terrible Experience GM is a Scammer Lies Lies Lies I am not sure where to begin. The General Manager Vince Troncoso is a Back-End Scam Specialist. We had an easy sale turn to complete ga Lies Lies Lies I am not sure where to begin. The General Manager Vince Troncoso is a Back-End Scam Specialist. We had an easy sale turn to complete garbage. I drove 200 miles to come to this dealership to pick up a used Lexus. I worked everything out with my credit union and received my out the door price from salesman Scott. My credit union approved my loan and loaded it into their lending systems. After arriving at the dealership they tried to tack on a $1,000 add on "Paint protection" that is a scam stating all of their vehicles leave with this service. Then they refused to use the bank that I have worked my approval through. They were trying to go through another bank in order to pocket themselves some extra back end gross. Either was I wasted my entire day driving here to have them try to squeeze me for a extra $2,000. AVOID THIS DEALER AT ALL COSTS. More

Great car, great salesman! I stopped by the dealership to view a car I saw online. After being greeted by John Dougherty, I was taken to the vehicle I had in mind. After only lo I stopped by the dealership to view a car I saw online. After being greeted by John Dougherty, I was taken to the vehicle I had in mind. After only looking at the car for a few minutes, John suggested we go for a test drive, how could I refuse! Upon return I said I want this car. No haggle, no time wasted, and they met my terms, I spent more time waiting for the car to get a wash than I did waiting on the paperwork to be finalized. I was in and out in a little over two hours! Thank you John, and thank you SLO BMW for a great experience and a great new car! More

I just went there for service of my old BMW but ended buying a new BMW..I th Jonathan Dougherty is an asset and exceptional salesman of your company. I just went there for service of my old BMW but ended buying a new BMW..I thought he was honest and gave me advantages/disadvantages of the cars I was shown and not just push me of getting a new car. The processing of the financial papers was so fast and very efficient that I drove home with my new car in just 2 hours. The staff was UNBELIEVABLE----Thank You---Dr Camilo S Guiang- More

Bait and switch internet sales tactics Where to begin? I have been buying cars for over 40 years and have dealt with plenty of shady dealerships before, but this place takes the cake. I spe Where to begin? I have been buying cars for over 40 years and have dealt with plenty of shady dealerships before, but this place takes the cake. I spent a week working with their internet sales department on a car I wanted, we went back and forth numerous times, trying to work out complex details of buying a car out of state in CA and bringing it back to my home state. We finally got details worked out, agreed on a price, with the sales manager Jose Macias even sending me an official looking document detailing the price and any fees. We discussed cashier checks and amounts I would need to bring, so I went ahead and booked a flight to come close the deal the following day thinking we were all set. That evening, almost immediately after we agreed on the deal, I noticed they had upped the price of the car in their internet ads by roughly $2500. I had my bank (arranged my own financing) contact them first thing the next morning and ask for a signed purchase agreement reflecting what we had already agreed to, a request which the dealership staunchly refused. BIG RED FLAG. I called them REPEATEDLY that morning, and they repeatedly dodged my calls and would never call me back. After calling them at least a half dozen times over several hours, I was finally able to get the Sales Manager I had been dealing with, Jose Macias, to answer the call (note I purposely didn’t give my name so someone would take my call instead of directing me to leave another message). I confronted him point blank about my suspicions about the pricing bait-and-switch, to which he played dumb, but I insisted that he provide me confirmation that our deal was still intact before I’d board the plane. At that point he had no choice but to come clean. He called me back a couple of minutes later telling me that the owner “was very proud” of the new pricing, and refused to honor the deal we had already made. They knew full well that I had already booked my flight, they spent the day dodging my calls thinking I’d get on the plane anyways, so that when I get there, they could spring their last minute price hike on me. The fact this happened at a BMW dealership, a brand that prides itself on their “top-of-the-line” dealership network and straight dealing, was shocking to say the least. I’ve been buying BMWs for 20 years, I currently own 3, and I’ve never run into a dealership so completely unprofessional and unethical in their business practices. There are FAR better places to go to buy a nice BMW, ESPECIALLY if you are an out of state buyer. This place’s whole business model for internet sales is to make believe a deal is in place, get you in the door, then prey on the fact you’ve come a long ways to buy a car, and then bait and switch you. I wasted countless hours of my valuable time over the past week, ended up eating a round trip airfare for me AND my wife, and came way from the whole experience befuddled that dealerships like this exist in the BMW dealer network. So moral of the story, DON’T TRUST THESE GUYS!! They are dishonest, deceitful, and will not honor agreements made in good faith. Hopefully something will come out of all the time and money I wasted dealing with these clowns, and my fellow BMW enthusiasts and other perspective BMW owners will heed my warnings about the type of business this dealership is, and take their business someplace else. TRUE STORY - I went to leave a review on Car Gurus where I initially came upon the car, and the system would not let me add my review, saying that I had already left one! Clearly I had not, so it would appear they locked me out of being able to leave one. More

Broken promises & Unreliable Service I purchased a used BMW i3 from the internet sales department. The sales man told me everything that he thought I wanted to hear in order to convince I purchased a used BMW i3 from the internet sales department. The sales man told me everything that he thought I wanted to hear in order to convince me to make the purchase. During the process I only was concerned with 3 things, the price, the vehicle charger, and shipping. The price I had no issues with. As far as shipping the told me it would be 2-3 days for me to get the car but I didn’t receive it until 2 weeks later. As for the charger, they promised it in the deal. It only makes sense because it an electric car. However when the car came, no charger was in the car. After calling them they gave me endless excuses and even told me that I was wrong about them promising it. Now two weeks later, the manager won’t take my calls and no charger. In addition to this, very poor communication. Don’t waste your time or money. Find a dealer that values their customers and keeps promises. More
