What a great car buying experience! I have bought several cars both used and new and this was by far my best buying experience. Mathew is a terrific gut. Very nice, honest and down to ea I have bought several cars both used and new and this was by far my best buying experience. Mathew is a terrific gut. Very nice, honest and down to earth. He never once felt pushy, in fact he was the opposite. Mathew really worked with me to get me in the car I wanted. Not only was Mathew great but so was the rest of the people that work for him. Honestly, even if I didn't leave having gotten the car, I still would have left having been impressed with the experience. I highly recommend buying a car from the European automobile Company. They will treat you good. More

Having visited several dealers looking for a very lightly used full size Range Rover, I became very educated on the good and bad about these vehicles. Unfortunately I also learned the "salesman" pitch at th used full size Range Rover, I became very educated on the good and bad about these vehicles. Unfortunately I also learned the "salesman" pitch at the Land Rover dealers...something I just do not really care for. Things could not have been further from this at European Automobile Company. Matt Semon gave me the real deal information - not just the information he wanted me to hear. Sure enough, a practically new Buckingham Blue 2010 Full Size HSE Range Rover with 20k on the clock arrived. Matt told me exactly what the truck needed, even down to how long he estimated my break life to be (btw, he was dead on as i just recently did the pads...). Besides being more than pleased with my new Rover, Matt knew that my highly customized trade could not just go out wholesale. He appreciated what I put into the Jeep, spent a lot of time in order to make sure he was able to give me top dollar and make the whole deal work all the way around. I will definitely be back for future cars for myself and have already recommended EAC to several friends and acquaintances. Thank you Matt! More

Took care of all the paper work happier. Matt is great he knows the pros and cons to most cars which is helpful when trying to but a pre owned car. Took care of all the paper work.

With the internets ability to find the car you want, there is more and more temptation to buy a car from a remote dealer - as I did from European Automobile Co. But don't make the same mistake I did wit there is more and more temptation to buy a car from a remote dealer - as I did from European Automobile Co. But don't make the same mistake I did with this company. Do not buy a car on his word and do not buy a car from him with out a full mechanic inspection. His name is Matt and he has a wonderful approach that comes across with such a caring personality and with such honesty...In hind site it is all so calculated, and after the check clears you meet the other Matt - the one that doesn't return calls or emails, or makes promises that are never realized. He turns into the proverbial NY Used Car Salesman ... Look at the descriptions of the dozens of cars he has for sale ....they all say "Just driven 45k careful miles" or whatever the milage is. Imagine all of the cars that he buys at auction...are only the ones driven with "careful miles" all of the descriptions are just the same as if all of the cars are in the same in identical perfect careful condition. On top of all the smooth talk that makes you feel good and his quick (even after hours) response before the sale, there is his wonderful presentation of how he puts all of the cars "through the shop" so that they are fully tuned and repaired and ready to go. This turns out to be a car wash and vacuum at most... The Mercedes I bought had a cracked mirror which he was to be replace as part of the deal. When it wasn't done at pick up he said it would be sent up Monday and I would have to get it installed, but then it just never arrived and the car wouldn't pass inspection, months later after tormenting him he sent me a check so that I could buy one he found on ebay, turns out it was an aftermarket part and the money he sent was about half of getting the right MB part. I figured since I didn't trust him at this point, I'd take it in for an oil service right away and was I in for a shocker on this 43k mile carefully driven one owner MB. The transmission fluid was over filled so the shifting was jumpy, there was a wobble in the front end which I assumed was just a tire out of balance- nope both front wheels were bent. Then there are the rubber boots on the front half shafts, both ripped apart and that turned out to be a 1500 job and hopefully the u-joints are not contaminated by road sand as the half shaft are a 4500 job. Then there is the A/C which he said BLOWS COLD...well it did in the front seats, but the back seat A/C control only pumped heat - all the time. that was a 500 job. Then there is the front right ball joint thats gone...and so on. All this on top of his detailed description of how clean and mint the one owner car was, no rust (nope the fender edges are all rusted and getting ready to come out on the rear fenders, original paint-nope, paint work and the rear section not put back together properly so the bumper trim sticks out 1/4 proud of the fender and you can see the paint tape lines. Then the lacrosse ball size dent in the roof he never mentioned and the crack in the heater control glass on the dash that he said was a reflection in the photo...and I could go on but you get the picture ... A really highly calculated professional smooth talking NY used car salesman. Don't fall for it like I did. More
Purchased a 1993 corvette in Aug 2012, had two minor problems and Matt was very responsive, would recommend this dealer for high end used cars, excellent and friendly, no pressure. problems and Matt was very responsive, would recommend this dealer for high end used cars, excellent and friendly, no pressure.
