Bayside Volkswagen

Fantastic experience!!! My wife and I were looking for a VW Beetle convertible for a nice commuter car for her. We located one online at Bayside VW and gave them a call. From My wife and I were looking for a VW Beetle convertible for a nice commuter car for her. We located one online at Bayside VW and gave them a call. From the initial conversation with Sally on the phone, to meeting with Leo and John once we arrived, to the financing with David at the end, each of these people were nicer than the next. Professional, courteous and really knew their stuff. Not just the usual professional words you expect people to say, but really genuine people who wanted us to have a nice experience looking at this vehicle. We were there in the middle of the day and my wife made one little comment about being hungry. The next thing I know John and Leo are insisting we join them upstairs in the sales staff's break room for a slice of pizza with their team. Who does that? I have not been to a dealer where I have found nicer people - period! We purchased the Beetle for my wife and if I EVER purchase another VW, I honestly won't go anywhere else and I drove an hour to get there from CT! More

Fantastic service. I'll never go anywhere else. First and foremost, let me say that I'm usually pretty skeptical about car dealerships. I lived in Florida for 20 years, and was used to sneaky salesm First and foremost, let me say that I'm usually pretty skeptical about car dealerships. I lived in Florida for 20 years, and was used to sneaky salesmen who tried to quickly get you into mediocre cars, so by nature, I do a lot of research and spend extra money on things like Carfax to avoid having to ask questions. Wife and I were trading in our 2013 VW CC, we wanted something newer to accommodate for our weekend getaway trips, and to also (maybe) facilitate a carseat someday. I used to go to a VW dealership in New Jersey when we first moved to the NY/NJ area a few years ago, but I decided to give Bayside a try, since it's just closer to where we live. First - I really appreciate the effort that Bayside makes in ensuring that all of their staff are on their website. That gave me peace of mind, and that went a step further when we went into the showroom. The dealership was conveniently located near the Bayside LIRR, which was very helpful. The front desk connected us with Jeff, who we were warmly greeted by. He was very friendly and it was totally different from the dealerships we were used to in the south. We were seated, offered coffee and started a conversation. We were initially thinking about the new Tiguan, but after conversation, Jeff helped us narrow down the decision to what we really wanted in a car, so we ended up getting the Passat with Technology package, which is great. I felt like I didn't have to negotiate the price much, and it ended up being a little under what I had expected to pay that day for the lease. All the terms were explained to us, we were assured that if we needed anything, we can always reach out, and most, if not everyone there has been there for at least a decade, so it's a good feeling. One of the the VW dealerships that I went to in 2015 in Jersey actually closed down, so it was nice to know that Bayside has been there forever. If you are in the market for a VW, check out their showroom, go for a test drive and let one of these guys help you out. You won't be disappointed, you won't be pushed, and you'll leave happy. More

Engine seized a few months later from part they apparently never checked. Went there twice. Called constantly and was ignored until I tried from a different phone and got right through.

Best car purchase experience Just picked up a new Passat yesterday. I worked with Andrew and Angelo. This is the second time in 3 years Angelo has helped me. The experience is Just picked up a new Passat yesterday. I worked with Andrew and Angelo. This is the second time in 3 years Angelo has helped me. The experience is wonderful. Both gentlemen are true to their words. They are straight shooters. The deal I got over the phone was the same when I picked up the car. Please give this dealership a chance. I make my journey here every three years from Brooklyn passing other VW dealerships along the way. Thank you Andrew and Angelo for another great car leasing experience. More
