He offered me food and beverages and set me down and helped me find the exact car I wanted. Was the most amazing experience I've ever had from a car dealership or car salesman.

Personalized Service with a VIP Touch I've purchased 3 cars from Darcars VW in the past and have been extremely satisfied with each purchase. This most recent time was nothing short of ex I've purchased 3 cars from Darcars VW in the past and have been extremely satisfied with each purchase. This most recent time was nothing short of exceptional. I was at the dealership to service my current leased vehicle and was looking around the new cars in the showroom. Robin, who was out in the middle of the showroom, greeted me with a smile and a warm welcome. She inquired politely about my visit to the dealership and when I explained I was in for service on my 2016 Tiguan with my lease scheduled in end in August, she told me about the 3-month buy back program VW was running and asked if I was interested in hearing more about it. From there, Robin introduced me to Adul Basit in Sales who was incredibly knowledgeable about the new 2018 Tiguan and patient enough to work with me through all of the details that were important to me in order for me to consider making the move to a new lease. After looking at a few different options and test driving the car, I was ready to negotiate the deal. As I was quickly doing my online research on my phone, Robin and Adul came and sat down with me an offered a couple of options for me to choose from and both of them EXCEEDED what was considered an "Exceptional Price" online. Both of them recognizing and thanking me in advance for my continued loyalty to Darcars VW. I was then introduced to PJ Feiz in Finance and he couldn't have been more polite, friendly and welcoming to work with. He was very informative, willing to work at the pace I was comfortable with and respectful of my time. After the financing was squared away, Adul took the time to give me the complete overview and orientation of the car and its features and made sure I was completely comfortable before leaving the dealership. It was a personalized VIP experience from start to finish! What I loved the most about it was throughout the entire process, Robin was checking in with me and simply asking "Are you happy?" Come to find out later that Robin was the GM of the Dealership. I was simply blown away by the personal touch she offered me throughout the process. Great leaders inspire their employees to do great things and it was so obvious the influence Robin's leadership has throughout the entire team at Darcars VW. Each person made me feel valued and appreciated, from Robin to Adul to Tony Zelaya to PJ to Saji Vettukattel to the service team that prepped the new car for delivery. It was an AWESOME experience with an INCREDIBLE team! Thank you! More

Pleasantly painless purchase! It's been a while since I bought (or participated in a purchase) of a car, and all I remembered from past experiences was it was horrible. I was pleas It's been a while since I bought (or participated in a purchase) of a car, and all I remembered from past experiences was it was horrible. I was pleasantly surprised at how smoothly the process went at DARCARS. I worked with Arnold Silverberg, and he was very patient and informative. I never felt rushed into a decision, and the whole process went very smoothly. My family isn't in the market for another vehicle, but we'd come back to work with Arnold if we were. More
polite, informative helpful and respectful service people Arnold Silverberg thoroughly explained to my husband and me all the facets of our VW Passat before we agreed to make our purchase. He was patient and Arnold Silverberg thoroughly explained to my husband and me all the facets of our VW Passat before we agreed to make our purchase. He was patient and understood our needs and that it had been years since we replaced our vehicle. He went over everything until we felt comfortable. He was never pushy, although he surely had plenty of opportunity to "sell" to a couple of older customers. We thorooughly appreciated his approach. The service center also bent over backwards to help us keep our car in good condition. When we went though the buying process, the person, whose name I forgot was efficient, organized and communicative. What was amazing was that when we went in a year later and he saw us, he actually recognized us! That was really impressive. We are very happy with our car and feel it is safe. Recommending Darcars VW of Sliver Spring and all the staff we worked with and met, is a pleasure. More

Arnold Silverberg offered excellent service, walking all over the lot with us looking at di This is our second time getting a new car from Darcars VW. Arnold Silverberg offered excellent service, walking all over the lot with us looking at different trim levels and colors. He also made buying out our old lease easy, getting us an objectively fair deal. In addition to knowing the differences in trims, and lining up the transaction, Arnold has a genial personality: he put us at ease and had us laughing with his charming humor. More

HORRIBLE, TRAMATIZING EXPERIENCE DO NOT GO HERE!!!! Save yourself TIME ,STRESS ,MONEY AND A OVER ALL HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE!! Hands-down the worst experience I have ever dealt with i DO NOT GO HERE!!!! Save yourself TIME ,STRESS ,MONEY AND A OVER ALL HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE!! Hands-down the worst experience I have ever dealt with in my entire life. I have never seen such a large group of disrespectful lack of integrity, lying unprofessional group of people in my life!! Let me start off by saying Steve Cole is the rudest most disrespectful inconsiderate man I have ever spoke to ! Way I was introduced to Steve was by a phone call at my job . Steve called threatening me demanding that I signed a new contract with DARCARS. I originally walked into the dealership on May 14, 2016 , traded in my 2015 car for a 2016 Jetta . Had negative equity in my car so they rolled it into the new contract. I left the dealership everything was normal. So I thought, I soon found out about 2 1/2 weeks later when I called to make my first payment on the car that there was no contract on the car!!! I was explained to call DARCARS and find out what was going on. So i did I called up to the dealership looking for Vincent Gross ( finance manager ) every time I would call I would get blown off by who ever was there. I would get every excuse in the book he wasn't there that he was out on lunch that he left for the day he was out on vacation for a week he would call me back sent to his voicemail, etc. This went on for weeks!! The shenanigans went on for so long my first set of paper tags had expired !! I had to call up to the dealership and demand to speak to someone because I got pulled over and got a parking ticket for driving on DEAD PAPER TAGS. I have to call of the dealership again had to speak to sales manager Keith Stewart! I had to explain to him for some reason or another my tags was doing that in and then my tags have expired and I needed a new said or My Hard plates to come in that day. He told me to bring the old plates in and he would replace them with new ones. ( illegal major red flag with the MVA ). So I did! A week later I called in asked where was my tags how do I make my first payment. No one was able to give me an answer. This went on for about another two months.( reason being there was no contract or funding done on the vehicle every since the day I left on May 14) . After being told that the ticket that I have received would be paid for on behalf of the dealership due to the lack of funding done on the vehicle . I soon found out in July did the ticket was never paid . Meanwhile I attempted to contact everyone humanly possible to figure out what was going on with my contract and why can I not make a payment on the car. Later on in August I get a phone call from Steve Cole threatening me at my job. Steve called demanding that I come in sign a new contract. Or he would be forced to come take the car for me. Steve called me at my job being very rude and disrespectful, yelling and being nasty! (Keep in mind he called my desk screaming , quickly became livid when I explained to him that I was not signing a new contract after I tried to get this situation resolved for four months !! That's what Steve started to explain if I did not come sign a new contract he was sending someone to come take the car from me. I dropped the car off to the dealership still with the paper tags on it, I Immediately got in contact with the group sales manager of the DARCARS park Kevin Colabucci!! My mother and I met with Kevin on August 29, 2016 At his office upstairs in the Lexus building! In the meeting with Kevin explain the reason why I never got tags because the vehicle was never funded!! I explain to Kevin that I can I keep the car after getting threatened by Steve I was forced to go buy another car and could not afford both . Kevin explained that he would be forcing the original contract that was signed on May 14 (keep in mind I met Kevin 8.29. Eventually the dealership ended up Dropping the car back off in front The neighbors house. Was supposed to contact the CFPB also the federal trade commission as well as Montgomery County consumer protection ,to see if there would be able to do some type of mediation between the two of us!! The dealership has yet to respond. DARCARS dealership refuses to respond is because they know they was dead wrong for not ever getting my contract funded over a course of four months !!! I am currently still dealing with this situation and have been under a lot of stress PLEASE MAKE A WISE DECISION DON NOT SHOP HERE!!!!!! This group of people including upper management should be ashamed of themselves!!! They are the most dishonest group of individuals I've ever came in contact with!!!! STAY AWAY FROM HERE AND THIS ENTIRE COMPANY!!!! Do not Deal with Any if the following Jammie Dobson (Director of customer relations Jamie Darvish (CEO) Nan Wong (manager) Steve Cole (finance manager) Walter Siguenza (Store manager) Vincent Gross (finance department) Keith M.
