Spanos Motors

Great Experience I purchased a Mercedes GL450 at Spanos. I traveled several hours away to test drive the vehicle after a long phone conversation. The salesman (Rick) w I purchased a Mercedes GL450 at Spanos. I traveled several hours away to test drive the vehicle after a long phone conversation. The salesman (Rick) was very accommodating and courteous. The process was easy and a very pleasant experience! We found a few items that needed to be addressed; Rick made sure that everything was taken care of as we discussed when we returned to pick up the vehicle the next week. Great Experience! More

NO SERVICE AFTER SALE WHATSOEVER I PURCHASED A MERCEDES BENZ AT SPANOS LAST JUNE AND COULD NOT BE MORE DISSAPOINTED. THE CAR HAD BEEN POLISHED AND CLEANED AND WAS LOOKING VERY GOOD. I I PURCHASED A MERCEDES BENZ AT SPANOS LAST JUNE AND COULD NOT BE MORE DISSAPOINTED. THE CAR HAD BEEN POLISHED AND CLEANED AND WAS LOOKING VERY GOOD. I TRUSTED THE SALEMAN, HE WAS A NICE GUY. I PAID THE TOP END OF WHAT IT WAS WORTH IN ALL THE BOOKS. I PAID CASH FOR THE CAR RIGHT AWAY AND LATER REALIZED THAT I HAD PAID WAY TOO MUCH LOOKING AT OTHER SIMILAR CARS ONLINE. I TALKED TO THE SALES MANAGER AND HE TOLD ME HE WOULD TALK TO THE BOSS AND GET BACK TO ME WHICH HE NEVER DID. I TRIED CALLING HIM, LEFT SEVERAL MESSAGES BUT NO SUCCESS. THEN I ASKED THEM TO SHIP THE CAR TO CANADA BUT NO TRANSPORT WERE AVAILABLE I WAS TOLD. 2 WEEKS LATER I FLEW DOWN TO PICK IT UP AND AS PER THE SALE S MANAGER S INSTRUCTIONS THE CAR WAS LEFT ON THE STREET WITH THE KEYS ON THE FRONT TIRE AND THE REGISTRATION IN THE CAR. I TOOK A CAB FROM THE AIRPORT TO THE DEALERSHIP TO PICK UP THE CAR EVEN THOUGH THEY HAD JUST CLOSED 30 MINS PRIOR. AFTER DRIVING 30MINS THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND I NOTICED A SERIOUS LACK OF BRAKING POWER ONCE THE BRAKES WERE WARMED UP. THE PADS HAD BEEN REPLACED WITH THE CHEAPER PADS AND THE DISCS HAD NOT BEEN REPLACED. ALSO THE CAR HAD SOME VIBRATIONS THAT GOT WORST AS I WAS DRIVING BACK TO CANADA. WHEN I ARRIVED HOME I STORED THE CAR BECAUSE OF THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, THE VIBRATIONS AND THE OIL LEAK I HAD NOTICED IN MY DRIVEWAY LATER THAT WEEK. I ALSO HAD A ANTI-SKID YELLOW TRIANGLE LIGHT ILLUMINATED. I KNEW THEY WOULD NOT RETURN MY CALL SO I DID NOT BOTHER TO TRY AND CONTACT THEM. I FINALLY TOOK MY CAR TO A MERCEDES SPECIALIST AND HERE IS THE RESULTS: $5100 IN REPAIRS. AGAIN THE SALE S MANAGER JUST DID NOT WANT TO TALK TO ME; THE CAR WAS PAID AND IT WAS MINE AND THERE WAS NOTHING HE COULD DO HE SAID. I DO NOT RECOMMEND DEALING WITH SPANOS MOTORS. YOU CANNOT TRUST THESE GUYS, IF YOU BUY FROM ANY DEALER PLEASE GET THE CAR INSPECTED AND DONT BE IN A HURRY TO PAY. AGAIN DO NOT TRUST THESE GUYS!!!! More

Judging A Book by its Cover I walked on to Spanos Motors about 3 hours prior to closing after getting off work, so of course I was less than presentable. The first salesman I app I walked on to Spanos Motors about 3 hours prior to closing after getting off work, so of course I was less than presentable. The first salesman I approached greeted me and gave me a once over and I’m assuming thought I could not purchase and punted me to a wonderful and curtious salesman named John Latreille who was patient and kind. He treated me with respect and I really appreciated it so I brought 2 cars cash from him. Thank you John and I’ll see you soon for my son’s car! More

Dean Shaw Made Buying Used Car Painless Had been looking for a while for an “update” to my 2000 Lexus RX 300 and had experience shopping on internet (including Spanos site) for what I wanted Had been looking for a while for an “update” to my 2000 Lexus RX 300 and had experience shopping on internet (including Spanos site) for what I wanted- found 2007 Lexus RX 400 hybrid with 60,000 miles that I was very interested in. Contacted Spanos over email about the vehicle and Dean initially told me vehicle was already sold! Told him in reply that I figured it wouldn’t last and I’d keep looking- then he re-contacts me and said he made a mistake and vehicle was indeed still for sale. So using a combination of emails and phone calls we finalized a deal- I live in Tallahassee so I couldn’t just come down to Daytona anytime for an in person look see and test drive- but Dean answered all my questions and made me feel secure in my interest and in the vehicle’s condition. He got me a little wiggle room on the asking price and since I was from out of town he was able to hold the vehicle on a credit card deposit. Bottom line- Dean and the Spanos organization made me feel comfortable throughout the selling process. Dean went the extra mile to help me make the deal very straightforward and acceptable to me. He is very knowledgeable about “the art and process of the deal” and is super fun to talk about not only cars but just about any subject! Hope he hasn’t retired before I need yet another vehicle!

Excellent!! We spent a lot of time looking for a truck and had no luck. We are from Tampa and just happened to stumble across the Spanos Motors website. They We spent a lot of time looking for a truck and had no luck. We are from Tampa and just happened to stumble across the Spanos Motors website. They had exactly what we were looking for in a truck. Everyone here is friendly and professional. We were able to work out a deal over the phone and when we arrived the truck was ready for us to test drive. Dean Shaw is very professional and answered all of our questions. We were in an out in an hour!! This was totally worth the drive from Tampa. The truck is awesome and we are very happy customers.
