Gulf Coast Auto Sales of Sarasota

Great experience! I had been checking out a Ford Fiesta listing online and decided to give them a call and see if I could schedule a time to visit. A couple hours later I had been checking out a Ford Fiesta listing online and decided to give them a call and see if I could schedule a time to visit. A couple hours later I show up at the dealership and Mark had already pulled the car around for me. He was very helpful in pointing out both the pro's and the con's of the car which is a trait that's hard to come by in the auto industry. After test driving the Fiesta, he was extremely helpful streamlining the paperwork and making the process as easy as possible for me. I would highly recommend any potential customers check this place out! Ask for Mark. More

Fantastic experience! We wanted a fun car, that did not break the bank, so we decided to look at a used BMW.

We had found the car on-line and Mark had it ready when we arrived. We were very tentative about buying used, but Mark put our fears to rest. We bought it that day and LOVE it. We have had it for a month and we are thrilled. Mark is not your typical "used car sales guy". He was very down to earth and we felt comfortable doing business with him. We could not be happier!

No Customer support Engine light on not 3 miles and 1 hr after leaving lot.. emailed three times no response. They supposedly had repairs done at Ford dealership and had Engine light on not 3 miles and 1 hr after leaving lot.. emailed three times no response. They supposedly had repairs done at Ford dealership and had a copy of the warranty and receipt that i could have for my records, bull! They won't even email me back. Marcin said loose fuel cap,bull, drive it after it warms up the light will reset, bull. Now I want the receipt and for them to have it fixed correctly by Ford as I was told they did, not some backgarage guy with a wrench set!! Oh yeah and a $599dealer fee, bull, the truck wasn't even wiped out well.. More

Variety! Long story short my car was totaled out and with not much time to find a new vehicle before having to return my rental. I looked EVERYWHERE for a car! Long story short my car was totaled out and with not much time to find a new vehicle before having to return my rental. I looked EVERYWHERE for a car!! I'm VERY picky! I was on edge and upset, I knew what I wanted but couldn't find it anywhere unless it had a million miles or was way over priced! I had never previously purchased a vehicle from a dealer and I work at a well known dealer myself and have always tried to avoid buying a car from a dealer but you do get what you pay for. I decided to expanded my search online and found Gulf Coast Auto not only did they have the exact car I was looking for that was within my price range and had low miles they also provided the Carfax report (a few other places I searched did NOT!) they had multiple vehicles for me to chose from. When I say I couldn't be anymore pleased! I'm beyond happy with my purchase everytime I sit it my car it puts a smile on my face! Mark was my sales rep and from the time he answered the phone to the time I arrived he was very punctual and polite and showed me all my options and not once was he pushy about me buying a car. Again I work at a dealer I hear complaints about this and see it myself but I felt welcomed and not pressured into a vehicle. I would highly recommend!! I passed up an offer for a vehicle from my dealer and drove and hour and a half to get here so if that doesn't say anything you'll have to stop by yourself and find out first hand the level of service and quality of cars. They have such a variety of trucks, cars and SUVs on the lot I was actually very surprised! I absolutely LOVE my new car, and the whole process was a breeze. More

Mercedes Benz GL450 Purchase I recently bought a Mercedes Benz GL450 with no warranty from Mark at Gulf Coast. The price seemed fair and liked it when I took the test drive. (Seem I recently bought a Mercedes Benz GL450 with no warranty from Mark at Gulf Coast. The price seemed fair and liked it when I took the test drive. (Seemed a little "bouncy" but I was not used to a SUV).I also liked the fact that the local Mercedes Dealer was last owner and had done the maintenance on it .That was a major selling point. Driving back home to Tampa Bay Area I noticed the car really "bounced" bad on the Interstate. made my stomach turn.. I explained to Mark the rear shocks were shot and I was unhappy. He told me to come see him. He reimbursed me for the price of new rear shocks (parts) before I could ask and the Mercedes Shocks are special and quite expensive! Mark was under no real legal obligation to do this being I bought "No Warranty" If you are looking for a pre-owned car GO THERE AND ASK FOR MARK! He is "Straight up " responds to your concerns and will make sure you are happy with your purchase! More

I bought a high mileage 2011 Mustang convertible a year ago While the car appeared immaculate with new paint, wheels, brakes, etc. and was very clean inside (even had the brown leather interior that I wanted). While the car appeared immaculate with new paint, wheels, brakes, etc. and was very clean inside (even had the brown leather interior that I wanted). I was a bit concerned that the price was comparatively low, even with 73,000 miles on it. The car drove like a new vehicle and the buying process from Gulf Coast was straight forward with no surprises. Now, over a year later, any surprises have been pleasant, everything still works like new and I had Sam Galloway Ford here in Ft Myers run full diagnostics (all A-OK) just for my peace of mind. From my experience with Gulf Coast, I would not hesitate to recommend them to a friend. Ron Meyer Fort Myers Beach. More
