Irvine BMW

schedule my bmw for recall service. Need to drop the car few days earlier because plan to go out of town. I was promised it will not be a problem. When I drove the car to Irvine BMW,they refuse to take the few days earlier because plan to go out of town. I was promised it will not be a problem. When I drove the car to Irvine BMW,they refuse to take the car. I almost miss my flight because of this. Call the service manager to complain,the response is we do not care. More

Just to clarify my only experience with Irvine BMW was through their service department and my review is primarily focused on their service department alone. I contacted Irvine BMW for the first time through their service department and my review is primarily focused on their service department alone. I contacted Irvine BMW for the first time to have my front brakes serviced. It was a horrible mistake. Although they seem to look a professional, serious and reliable business to deal with when you drive through the dealership, as it turned out, it was very deceiving at the end. Their service department is very disorganized, poorly trained, disoriented, and without any level of discipline or professionalism. I am surprised how the BMW manufacturer lets BMW of Irvine stay in business. They have receptionists acting as service agents! and service agents backing up their receptionists for any situation that comes through. I called on Wednesday and I was forwarded to a gentleman named Stuart to help me with my service needs. I asked him to give me a quote for the front brakes that would include brakes, rotors and labor. He gave me a quote of $580. Then 5 minutes I called back again to confirm the quote I was given, and after confirming I drove to the dealership from Riverside, thats 48 miles away! to drop my car for service and I was assigned to a service agent, Miguel, that was present when I got there. Next day, Miguel emails me to give me a final estimate for the services to render. He was quoting me double much than what I was originally quoted for. On top of that, he would tell me that my car needs brake fluid maintenance and other additional services and was trying to convince me to include them in my service. I drove back to the dealership to ask for an explanation. I met with Miguel, and he would back Stuart, trying to make me look like an idiot and to prove me wrong. Then I decided to cancel my appointment and take my car to another dealership. I asked to talk to the service manager Jose. Jose asked me who gave me the quote and when I said Stuart, he says Stuart is our receptionist and shouldn’t be giving you a quote. He is not authorized to give quotes anyways he said. He offered to perform the service at the quote I was given and I refused at that point. I wouldn't trust them to touch on my car. I decided to take my car elsewhere to another BMW dealership to perform the services needed. IF I trust or recommend BMW of Irvine? Definitely not. I would never take my car at any expense to them, nor would i recommend Irvine BMW to anyone. I ended up being fooled, wasting my time, wasting my gas, driving in traffic for nothing. This has to be the ultimate worst place for service. Stay away More

Bought my first BMW here and never again. The car I sold to Irvine BMW back in Oct 2012, Toll Road Violations still goes to me. Contacted in person, faxed, emailed them... that was a joke even with manageme to Irvine BMW back in Oct 2012, Toll Road Violations still goes to me. Contacted in person, faxed, emailed them... that was a joke even with management staff (Andrew - Sales Manager, Benjamin Nguyen - Business Manager). I guess when deal is done, it's done. Won't see them again. Don't expect their professional customer service. They said they strike for the best... it's the worse. Coming back here? Take relaxed medication before you go. More

I had a 3 year lease on a 2010 Mercedes E550 Coupe which was soon coming to an end. I visited Crevier BMW to look at the new 6 Series 4 Door Coupe. The sales pitch went something like this "call me when yo was soon coming to an end. I visited Crevier BMW to look at the new 6 Series 4 Door Coupe. The sales pitch went something like this "call me when you are interested." I'm not sure why someone would visit a car dealer if they weren't ready to buy a car. To me, that would be like visiting your dentist because you thought you may need a root canal, but weren’t ready. So I visited Irvine BMW the next day. I met Paul Bailey, Internet Sales Manager, and he told me that the great thing about BMW is that many customers like to order cars. BMW provides a vast number of options, to personalize the experience. (The only option I could get on the E550 at the time was the lane departure warning) The timing was perfect. We went through all of the options and I placed the order. Paul called me the next week to tell me the White Ash wood trim was discontinued, but they were able to override on my order and get it done. I tracked the "build" on the BMW site every few weeks and called when the car was en route to the dealer. They had the paperwork ready to go. Irvine BMW gave me more than the payoff amount on the E550 Coupe, which still had three payments left! I received a nice discount off of sticker on a brand new model, plus a nice trade in value, and the 640 was waiting for me, ready to go, right in front of the showroom. The best part is that when I arrived, everything was pretty much done. If you think of this from the dealer perspective, they are doing a high level legal transaction with a lot of money on the line, yet they know you don't want to be there all day. From my point of view, I know it is a large transaction, and I don't want to be there at all! I think two hours is pretty quick, considering all of the details involved. Irvine BMW has a new car delivery guy. That's all he does. He walked me through all of the features, helped transfer my remotes, transponders and so forth to the new car. When my plates arrive in the mail in a few weeks, they are going to install them (including the front plate, which thanks to the State of CA requires someone to puncture a perfectly beautiful front bumper skin). At that time the same new car delivery guy will make sure I learned how everything works and the things setup according to my preferences (I've decided to install an iPod in the glove box rather than download everything) also are working well and am okay with my choices. The dealership is modern and clean with nice waiting areas, without being a museum. I don’t think they have an espresso guy or a putting green, which leads me to believe they are more set up to get to the deal without taking all day, finding ways to keep you entertained, and justifying a higher margin. Irvine BMW feels like a comfortable pair of shoes. More

Of the 17 new cars I have bought in my lifetime, working with Tim Rose, has been most pleasurable new car experience I have ever e to get a new car. Of the 17 new cars I have bought in my lifetime, working with Tim Rose, has been most pleasurable new car experience I have ever encountered.

I went to Beverly Hills BMW (near where I live) and the service was TERRIBLE. After calling serveral BMW dealerships, I came in contact with Andrew Einhorn at Irvine BMW. I got ALL my questions answered, service was TERRIBLE. After calling serveral BMW dealerships, I came in contact with Andrew Einhorn at Irvine BMW. I got ALL my questions answered, he was professional, met my needs, and received amazing customer service. Irvine BMW is FABULOUS and I highly recommend using Andrew!! I now have my gorgeous brand new 328i convertible and I couldn't have done it without Andrew making it happen for me. Don't waste your time at Beverly Hills (they were too "busy" for me and I felt like a burden rather than a customer). Go to Irvine, it's worth the drive!! More
