My experience with Open Road BMW of Edison and Nitin Kalamdani (Sales) and Dean Palumbo (General Sales Manager) on Sat, Jan 23rd was excellent. I leased my first car with Open Road two years prior Kalamdani (Sales) and Dean Palumbo (General Sales Manager) on Sat, Jan 23rd was excellent. I leased my first car with Open Road two years prior and it was also quite a pleasant experience. On January 23rd, I went back to Open Road, after visiting Volvo, BMW of Princeton and several other dealerships. At BMW Princeton, I was ignored, my time was wasted, and I was not taken seriously. At Volvo, there was no follow up, and again - I felt my time was wasted. I loved my time with Open Road because first, my sales rep Nitin followed up with me via phone several times which I appreciated to confirm our appt. Then he was excellent in listening to exactly what I wanted. He didn't push features, cars, colors or anything else that wouldn’t contribute to exactly what I needed. I had no interest in spending any time at BMW that I didn't need to spend. Nitin was busy, but took care of selling me my car as quickly as possible (which was my objective) and also understood that once I purchased my car I wanted to get out of there ASAP! :) Dean Palumbo, who is the General Sales Manager at Open Road was excellent, friendly, and made my whole experience pretty amazing. I noticed prior to meeting Dean, he extended the same courtesy, professionalism, and patience with a client that was there earlier. Dean went above and beyond to make sure that I was happy not only with his sales team, with the car, but also to the last minute during the finance piece. He has continued to follow up with me, and this type of service is priceless. BMW spends millions of dollars in advertizing their cars, and the excellence they represent, and it’s a shame when customers have poor or mediocre experiences at dealerships. Luckily, I felt I worked with two excellent managers, and not only did they represent BWM well, but took their time and effort to make sure that I was happy and satisfied. I am looking forward to going back to BWM when I need another car, and would be more than happy to recommend both Dean and Nitin to anyone interested in an exceptional car buying experience. More

The first day we dealt with Jamal and he was friendly. He helped us pick out the car that we wanted and also showed us different types of options we can go with when you lease a car. Showed us different mont helped us pick out the car that we wanted and also showed us different types of options we can go with when you lease a car. Showed us different monthly prices when you add different amount of down payment. He had good knowledge about the car he was selling. He explained everything to us about leasing a BMW. The second time we dealt with John Byrnes and he said our car will be here in a few days because they didn't have the car we wanted in the showroom. Showed us another one we could go with but we were stuck on our choice. We think it is pretty quick that they will have the car in 4 days and our overall experience with them was great. More

If you leave your car here to get serviced and you take out a loaner I can almost guarantee you that the service advisor will call you back later saying they discovered something through their "complimenta out a loaner I can almost guarantee you that the service advisor will call you back later saying they discovered something through their "complimentary thorough check of the whole vehicle" and suggest additional (often costly) repairs. I've been coming here for 4 years now and this always happens. This is how their service advisors make their money. On charging you for additional unnecessary repairs. In this latest incident, when I declined the extra service you could clearly tell the advisor was upset (obviously from the missed sale). These people are experts at finding ways to charge you for all kinds of bullsh*t, so just be wary of that. I moved an hour away 2 years ago but still went to them cause that's where I bought my car and I've been going to them for 4 years now. A recent incident in which I was clearly ripped off is finally the last straw ($135 for turning the key in my trunk so it's out of valet mode? REALLY?!!). I will not be going back to get my car serviced here. If I was going to get ripped off anyway, I'd much rather go to a dealership much closer to my new home instead. If you go here, be extremely skeptical of any extra repairs suggested to you. I overheard the service advisors on the phone with customers and every call sounds like the same bullsh*t spiel trying to sell people on repairs they had no clue about going in. More
