Top Class Buying experience, deliver the car to my house! This dealership has genuine staff. From the sales team to finance department, I was treated with upmost respect! The day I came in to buy my CPO C300, This dealership has genuine staff. From the sales team to finance department, I was treated with upmost respect! The day I came in to buy my CPO C300, TK and Price from the sales team already had the car ready for me to test drive and answered all my questions. Then we move on to signing paper at the finance department. I must give a Big thank you to Milly who go through all the financing details to me and my wife. Her patience and friendliness gave us the confidence to finalize the deal. We were not pressure in any way to buy add on service like other dealership we've been to, everything went smoothly. When I took delivery of my car after paying, TK notice a noise coming from the front so he had a tech to look at it, and ask us to wait a bit... honestly I did not even notice it myself. As soon as the tech look at it, Price updates us what the problem was and explain how long it will take. It was Sat afternoon, there were a lot of customer and not enough master tech who can fix the problem until next Monday. So without me asking, TK and Price offer me a free 2018 GLS 450 loaner to drive back home and promise to deliver my car to my house + pick up the loaner at no cost when finish. TK even fill up the loaner before letting me go. Two days later, they call me to setup a time to deliver my car, and by Wed they really follow through and deliver my car to my doorstep! I even test drove with the delivery person to confirm its fixed. I did not pay anything for the loaner nor the delivery! TK even follow up with me over the phone to confirm I am satisfy. This whole car buying experience is just impressive! Top class service from MB of Marin!!! Definitely earned my trust! More

Bad Experience at Mercedes of Marin in California THIS WAS A MISERABLE EXPERIENCE. STAY AWAY FROM THIS DEALERSHIP UNLESS YOU BOUGHT YOUR CAR HERE. THOSE PEOPLE SEEM TO DO OK HERE! Our E350 converti THIS WAS A MISERABLE EXPERIENCE. STAY AWAY FROM THIS DEALERSHIP UNLESS YOU BOUGHT YOUR CAR HERE. THOSE PEOPLE SEEM TO DO OK HERE! Our E350 convertible wouldn't start after a visit to San Rafael (we live in Santa Cruz). We called Mercedes Roadside service who came out and diagnosed the problem as either a failure of the steering system (IES) or a sensor in the ignition, notifying the car it was stolen and locking up the steering and gear shift mechanisms. The car was in an underground parking lot and a flat bed could not get in to tow it. The AAA people got mad after Roadside service gave them the wrong number so we didn't respond to their text. We were keeping warm across the street. After a call to them, begging them to stay 5 more minutes, they left, stranding us. We got a hotel and I was on the phone to the service manager first thing, Ron Kane, and he couldn't have been more rude. He informed me that I had committed the cardinal sin of not servicing my car at a Mercedes DEALERSHIP (we live in Santa Cruz county, where there is NOT one). Because of this he claimed we didn't deserve to even receive Roadside Service and it was being provided "as a courtesy". After many more calls to Roadside service, they sent a specially outfitted tow truck to move the car to the dealership. We sat in the waiting room for four hours and watched everybody come and go, waited on, twice over, except us. I complained loudly and finally got a service rep who looked like he just got out of high school. After another hour of discussion, he informed us they couldn't look at the car for at least another 3-5 business days. (It was Friday afternoon, pushing us far into next week.) He assured us we had no other alternative- that ONLY a Mercedes dealership can diagnose and re-key the smart key, if that was it. Oh, and they needed both keys! (The other was at home.) They admonished us for that. Who knew you needed to travel with all your Mercedes keys? Although they couldn't even look at the car for days, they needed us to drive back and bring them the other key before the could even look at the car! Amazed, I wandered through the service bays and the row of cubicles in the service area, and at 1PM, barely any of them were working. Appears most of them don't even work Friday afternoon! I had had it and called our local service entity, Specialized Auto in Watsonville, CA. They assured me they were certified and could do all this in their shop, BUT THAT MERCEDES MIGHT NOT COOPERATE WITH THEM. Seems this is a regular thing. I handed the phone to our service rep who assured our guy they could not and would not cooperate. He gave me the phone back and our guy said, "don't listen to him- we can do it. It will just be a hassle." We got a tow 106 miles, back to Santa Cruz. The tow truck driver laughed about all the people he towed from there to a nearby independent Mercedes service shop, for all the same reasons that we left. Back at our local shop, they prepared for the hassle ahead, taking copies of my driver's license and registration and title. The first thing they said Mercedes would do was accuse them of was trying to re-key a stolen car, so they would need these documents or me there to plead our case if they were to get what they needed to fix the car. They were confident they could do it, just wasn't sure how many barriers Mercedes would put up. Although Mercedes had more business than they could handle, they didn't want to share with anyone. I guess they believe that bad service is better than them not getting the business! WE WERE SO RELIEVED TO BE BACK IN THE LAND OF GOOD SERVICE! THIS WAS A MISERABLE EXPERIENCE. STAY AWAY FROM THIS DEALERSHIP UNLESS YOU BOUGHT YOUR CAR HERE. THOSE PEOPLE SEEM TO DO OK HERE. More

Excellent car buying experience! Jerry Malone was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. In fact, when we first started looking at Mercedes, we heard him talking with another customer.

We were so impressed, we waited for them to finish so we could work with Jerry. We are so glad we did - we love our E350. Would highly recommend both Jerry and Mercedes of Marin! More

Beautiful car, wonderful people at the dealership I have always been happy to HAVE a new car. However this is the first time I am happy WITH a new car. Our new Mercedes-Benz is fabulous. Drives like a I have always been happy to HAVE a new car. However this is the first time I am happy WITH a new car. Our new Mercedes-Benz is fabulous. Drives like a dream (so smooth), hugs the road, takes turns beautifully, responds to touch both steering wheel and brakes. The windows seem to be designed so there are no blind spots because I can see well out of every window including the back seat ones and the rear. The trunk is roomy and back seats fold down so you can extend the trunk room for transporting large items. It has a valet key for the trunk and glove compartment. The communication, navigation and music system are a little tricky on first sight, but I must say I mastered it all in about 2 hours. Like any new computer program, you just have to be brave and try this and it is possible even without the manual. When two days after my purchase, my salesman Jerry Malone asked me if I still like the car, I told him I did, and more important I still liked him. He was a pleasure to deal with, and he answered my endless questions about the various models with such kindness, patience and, yes, critical, humor. He has a straight forward attitude. I felt as if I had met a friend. More
