I am always happy to go the extra mile in order to find the absolute best, and that is exactly what I found at Steve Thomas BMW with Ryan Amico. I give Ryan Amico my high praise for his courtesy, integrit the absolute best, and that is exactly what I found at Steve Thomas BMW with Ryan Amico. I give Ryan Amico my high praise for his courtesy, integrity and commitment to make sure everything is done right the first time. When shopping for an M3 here in Florida, I never imagined that I would buy it over the phone from a dealership across the country. However, that is exactly what I just did, and I couldn’t be happier. After receiving an exceptional deal from Ryan, he seamlessly walked me through the entire car buying process over just a couple emails and phone conversations. Ryan set up my European Delivery in Munich and my redelivery at the BMW Performance Center in Spartanburg, SC. This was the best car buying experience of my life, and I’m already looking forward to calling Ryan again for next time. Ryan Amico, without a doubt, should be at the top of your list when shopping for your next car. -Chris More
We bought 3 cars from Steve Thomas and never had a good service experience. They never had a loaner for us and were actually rude about it as if we were asking for the impossible. We do not live in Camari service experience. They never had a loaner for us and were actually rude about it as if we were asking for the impossible. We do not live in Camarillo so we needed some way to get to work (in Ventura and Ojai), and we always had to rely on someone to drive us to Camarillo to leave or pick up our car. When we went to buy a 4th car it was obvious that they were not interested in our business, so we went to Bob Smith and have been treated unbelievably well there. We always have a loaner and are given the courtesy that should be offered to all good customers. My friend also had a terrible experience with Steve Thomas and we are quite willing to drive the extra distance to be served well. More
I accompanied my son on his BMW Welt Euro Delivery and ultimate delivery at Steve Thomas BMW on his 'sweet' M3. It was arranged and coordinated by Ryan Amico; whom I met when we picked up the M3 (yesterda ultimate delivery at Steve Thomas BMW on his 'sweet' M3. It was arranged and coordinated by Ryan Amico; whom I met when we picked up the M3 (yesterday) at the dealership after it's ocean journey. I wasn't involved w/ the actual sales portion but I tell you from son's accounting and meeting Ryan that he is a 'stand-up' guy and a pleasure to do business with. If I was in the market for a BMW I would not hesitate doing business w/ Ryan. Thanks Ryan for making Terry's experience a great one. More
They ordered the wrong car the first time. It took more then three months to get the right car. Dealer could care less. This was our third BMW through Steve Thomas in 5years. This time we picked the car then three months to get the right car. Dealer could care less. This was our third BMW through Steve Thomas in 5years. This time we picked the car up with only a half a tank of gas. We felt like we were at a Kia dealer. Service department is outdated, If you stay with you car you will not be able to get any work done. They have no Wifi. And bottled water or coffee will cost you $1.50 out of a machine. Take my advice and check out Bom Smith BMW or Rusnak . More
No loaners even though if you buy a car from them you are promised to be given a loaner when you service the car. Shuttle service works 7am - 12:30pm. The cars are usually done after 4pm. Service area has promised to be given a loaner when you service the car. Shuttle service works 7am - 12:30pm. The cars are usually done after 4pm. Service area has a coffee machine - customer has to pay for coffee if he wants a cup. There are two cramped couches in the service area: waiting for your car to be done sitting on those couches will be a pain. On top of the no free coffee, there are no snacks. Service writers behave as if they are doing you a favor taking your car in for service. They find many reasons not to do things: they wouldn't replace the high pressure fuel pump before the official recall was issued by the BMW, even though, at the time, the problem was well known and BMW recommended the replacement. Thus, while the buying from Steve Thomas can be a great experience, servicing your car there makes you feel as if you bought a Kia and not the ultimate driving machine. More
I have awarded this rating simply because of the excellent and swift response I received during the purchase of a new BMW.

At n had. Ryan was extremely helpful in answering all my questions and giving me several options to consider, pointing out the pros and cons of each. At no point did I feel that I was being "sold." Ryan kept me entertained, informed, and worked to help me relax and laugh through what many people call one of the most stressful experiences they have to endure.... This was not stressful- it was fun! And very efficient! I was in an out in about 2 hours. The level of knowledge and service was the best I had found after visiting several dealerships. I felt like I got a very reasonable price and my comfort level with the transaction was so high- I ha not am ounce of buyer's remorse the next day. This dealership is 60 miles from my house and I will take my car there to be serviced, etc. beause everyone I encountered at Steve Thomas was very friendly and helpful and I'm confident the service will extend to their service department as well. Highly recommend! More
Where do I start.. After contacting several BMW Where do I start.. After contacting several BMW dealerships, Steve Thomas BMW was the only dealership that had everything right. Without making me Where do I start.. After contacting several BMW dealerships, Steve Thomas BMW was the only dealership that had everything right. Without making me drive down to the dealership they were able to give me reliable quotes and frequent status updates as they certified the pre-owned vehicle that I was interested in. Alongside the updates, they also provided a detailed report during the financing process of exactly what steps were completed when the certification was done. All in all, I was in and out of the dealership in one and a half hours. I don't think that's ever happened in my lifetime. Ryan Amico was able to beat every quote that any BMW dealership in the San Fernando Valley provided me without having to haggle. I highly recommend him as a sales manager as he doesn't play games and gets strictly to the point. Adam Feldman was very thorough during the financing process and answered all my questions regarding payment, fees, and upgraded maintenance plans. Without a doubt he's very knowledge and has done this more than once :) Overall, every employee was friendly and courteous, and also kept my attention with great conversation during some of the downtime. I couldn't have asked for a better experience while purchasing my first BMW 335i. Thanks Steve Thomas BMW! More
From start to finish Steve Thomas BMW exceeded my expectations of a "dealership." I've been to many over the years and this didn't feel like one. It was like entering a family home. I felt wanted and expectations of a "dealership." I've been to many over the years and this didn't feel like one. It was like entering a family home. I felt wanted and never pressured into anything. I was never left with unanswered questions and I'm still in awe over the whole experience. Steve Thomas BMW is 50 miles from my home and I have plenty of other BMW dealerships in my area but I will make that extra trip knowing I will be well taken care of. Don't take it from me! Give them a call and you'll know immediately why I highly recommend them! More
Hands down the best dealer I've ever bought a car from (or interacted with for that matter). Ryan Amico was more than helpful, listened to my concerns/questions, and found a way for us to work together - (or interacted with for that matter). Ryan Amico was more than helpful, listened to my concerns/questions, and found a way for us to work together - the result: I drove away in a new BMW when I only had planned to visit. I will continue to go to Ryan/Steve Thomas in the future for all my BMW needs. I doubt you'll find a better dealer out there regardless of location - and I've lived in Boston, New York, Los Angeles. 10 thumbs up for these guys. More
