Go Elsewhere and Don't Get Ripped-Off Like I Did This shop is extremely dishonest. They sell crashed cars that have been poorly covered up and they are not a BMW authorized repair or sales shop becau This shop is extremely dishonest. They sell crashed cars that have been poorly covered up and they are not a BMW authorized repair or sales shop because they do not have the required equipment or training. In fact BMW Financial Services told me that they will not even sell Lease Return vehicles to California Beemers because they have received so many complaints. California Beemers is INFAMOUS with all the good dealers and repair facilities in the area that have to clean up their problems. Yes, their cars look good but that is because BMW makes great cars. California Beemers is making money by buying cars that other dealers will not accept due to condition problems and they assume you will not be able to notice until after the sale. Tell them that you want a Pre-Purchase Inspection (PPI) by your own expert and ask to see the "Condition Report" and photos of the damage from the Auction where they bought the car... and watch them roll out the excuses. They will probably tell you to leave. They want uninformed customers who are easy to fool and in a hurry. People who rate this dealer highly just have not found the problems yet, or they are embarrassed to admit that they got screwed, or correcting the problem is not worth the effort. I met several other people who bought from them and they got ripped off too in the exact same way. They sold me a damaged car, I found out, they tried to fix it several times and caused more damaged each time they touched it. It is a long story that involves hidden collision damage, lies about conditions, dents, poor paint, over-spray, broken parts, damaged seats, shorted electronics, broken door and seat parts, a hidden non-factory remote engine kill device (don't allow one of these, it will void your warranty), lots of phone calls and e-mails and 5 trips to Small Claims and Superior Court plus preparing for court that all waste a lot of your valuable time. They tried every trick they could think of to avoid responsibility and they appealed every Court decision and they lost every time. I have a stack of Court orders and a couple of BAR violation reports, but they still will not pay. Even when they are proven to be at fault and ordered to make it right they do not step up. I will get a court order to take some of their cars and have a Sheriff's sale to get my money back. Meanwhile, they are screwing new customers every day. Don't be one of them. By the way, the BAR does not make violations public, so checking their history on-line does not show the violations. Also, CarFax reports only show damage that is reported as Insurance Claims, so California Beemers is careful to buy cars with damage that has not been reported. I went to court to protect other people like you. This is a Criminal Racketeering enterprise. If you can find a similar car that you like for a few thousand dollars more somewhere else, it will be worth paying more to avoid this scam. I would never buy anything from this dealer or allow their Beemers Shop (same owner, same property, different name to avoid responsibility) to perform any repairs and I beg everyone I meet not to either. Now you have Fair Warning. More

Purchased a 340i from this place and it was a really great experience! Dan was super helpful and knowledgeable about the cars, not to mention very friendly and not pushy. Elliott is the man, and even th great experience! Dan was super helpful and knowledgeable about the cars, not to mention very friendly and not pushy. Elliott is the man, and even though I had a few issues with my vehicle post-purchase, I could literally text Elliott 24/7 and we could set up an appointment for me to come in and fix whatever was wrong. Overall, if you're looking for a BMW, this is definitely the place to buy from. Very friendly and welcoming group of people. Thanks Dan and Elliott! P.S. However I will say, they do add some clear coat package and knock off version of a low-jack to all their cars, which is of course a gimmick to boost the price. But it's already included in the price of the car as advertised. Just be aware. More
My family and usually hate the car buying experiencing, but I have to say for the very first time we had a quick, easy, painless, and extremely satisfying experience getting a new car that the whole family but I have to say for the very first time we had a quick, easy, painless, and extremely satisfying experience getting a new car that the whole family loves. All of this was thanks Sandy who is a top notch sales rep. He fought very hard to get us the right deal which fit our budget. Sandy went the extra mile to ensure we were satisfied the whole way and even followed up after the fact to make sure the vehicle was running smoothly and that we were still happy. I couldn't ask for a better experience and I recommend that everyone who is interested in a BMW give California Beemers a call and ask for Sandy. He's the man that will make sure you get exact what you're looking for without the horrible hassle of having to deal with car salesmen. More

I'm giving 5 stars for my service from Sandy. He was helpful and responsive all the way through. This is the second BMW I bought through California Beemers. Their cars are lightly used and in great cond helpful and responsive all the way through. This is the second BMW I bought through California Beemers. Their cars are lightly used and in great condition. You save a lot of money compared to buying new so it's a great value. The only thing I do not like is that they force you to buy inTouch for $499.

I've owned 4 BMW's previously and this was by far the most pleasant car buying experience. From the moment I walked in until the moment I drove off the lot Sandy and his coworker made me feel at home. No most pleasant car buying experience. From the moment I walked in until the moment I drove off the lot Sandy and his coworker made me feel at home. No pressure sales, very informative on their products, handshakes and smiles from everyone we came across. Paperwork was quick and throughly explained to the smallest detail. I would highly recommend anyone looking to purchase a preown BMW. The largest inventory of hand picked BMW's mainly prior lease one owner, no accidents and upgraded and rare finds with low mileage. Thank you so much. I'm overly excited and ecstatic with my 2016 428i. More
