Autowest BMW of Fremont

Reason for Visit: Sales (New)

I recommend this dealer: No

My Review of Autowest BMW of Fremont:
I went to this dealer (Fremont BMW) and they were rude. The sales person wanted me to buy what was in the lot. He and another male (Asian, I think he was the General Manager) was pushing me to buy the Diesel X-5.

First I thought since I was a woman they were taking advantage of me, but now that I read the other person's note here it seems like that are all like that. Rude, disrespectful, and lacked professionalism.

As for the price, it is funny they told me the same...the $1,750 was to help the customer to be able to purchase the car at invoice.

I leased my 2009 X-5 from Stevens Creek BMW at $500.00 below the invoice.

Fremont needs to watch out because the words are now going around.

NO TO FREMONT BMW.

My Review of Autowest BMW of Fremont:
On Wednesday my fiance and I went to look for a new X-5. We had to wait for at least 20 minutes before someone was able to assist us. The poor receptionist called for people, but no one answered. When we did get someone, he wasn't really interested to see what we needed. He was pushy and wanted to sale what they had on the lot. He wouldn't even check the computer to see if the car we wanted was even available.

When we asked to check the computer, the sales person told us that he didn't have time for us and he was going to call someone else for us. We waited another 10 minutes and the second sales person came to us.

He was "a little" nicer", and took us to his office and checked on his computer to see the new X-5 we wanted if it was available. He found the car we wanted. We talked about the price and he brought the price to the invoice, which included the $1,750 rebate. He wouldn't go any lower. He wouldn't tell us where he found the car. We tried to negotiate more and he became "ANGRY" and told us that we are lucky he is giving us the invoice or go else where. WE DID.

I went on-line and checked the dealers for the car I wanted. Guess what? Weatherford BMW had the car that I wanted and the sales person over at Fremont refused to tell us where the car was. After some reaserch I located the car myself.

My fiance and I went to Weatherford and purchased our new 2009 X-5 with ($800.00) below the invoice price.

The sales person at Weatherford told us they get cash back and the $1,750 rebate is for the customer and not the dealer to play trick on customers.

Fremont is a JOKE and they are liars.

There customer service needs improvement. 75,000 for a car and they treat you like you drive a 7,500.00 car. No worth a visit!!

My Review of Autowest BMW of Fremont:
The compliment is for all departments. This is a very nice place to shop for brand name car. There're nice people at Autowest BMW (former Claridge's BMW) in Fremont, California. People are well educated, trained, and the best attitude. I got my Bimmer serviced with extra care.<br>No complain with this dealership so far. All are compliments. We shall try to appreciate more while driving the bimmers. The cost of bimmer is doubled or tripled in Asian countries like Taiwan or H.K. We appreciate the opportunity to drive a bimmer at lower cost in the USA. I really appreciate that I can own a bimmer in my early age when my dad or grandpa couldn't have the chance.

My Review of Autowest BMW of Fremont:
Damn, I was wrong! That dark color of Castrol Synthetic made me think I got the classic &quot;wall job&quot;----where your car sits by the wall and isn't serviced. But my BMW oil and filter was changed at Autowest and Ron and the service supervisor did it again where I could see it being done. Ron doesn't turn wrenches of course and I doubt he could put one on a bolt but seemed like an nice fellow and a great service manager who gave prompt attention to my concerns (I saw nothing but red at the thought of a new car damaged by a skipped oil change) . I am now HIGHLY RECOMMENDING their dealership and service department in particular. I owe them a bottle of Dom Perrione -----if I could afford it.
