In 2000 I purchased a M Roadster from Patrick BMW. I lived in the area of the dealership so any maintenance work was very convenient. Each time I took my vehicle in for service, I was greeted by name a lived in the area of the dealership so any maintenance work was very convenient. Each time I took my vehicle in for service, I was greeted by name and always with a smile. I transferred out of state about 2 years later and have located in several major cities since then. I must say that in all of the dealerships that I have been to with this vehicle, NO other dealership treated me with the respect that I received from Patrick BMW. Here I am 10 years later still owning the same vehicle and loving it as much as the day I picked it up new. I found myself in a situation in which I needed help from the original dealership to clear up some paperwork issues with the security system on my vehilce. I called Patrick BMW thinking it is 10 years ago, there is no way they are going to help me. WRONG. I spoke with Time the General Manager as well as with Chris the Sales Manager and they were as friendly and supportive as the day I bought the car. I can't tell you how much it means to have a dealership that not only treats you right as a buyer, but continues to treat you right years later. I will travel back to Patrick to buy my next BMW regardless of where I live at the time. The drive back will just be an added bonus. More
Sal Sapienza made my first time buying experience easy, painless and enjoyable. He made me feel comfortable with the buying process. He was very knowledgable and didn't pressure me at any time.

My overall sales experience was pretty good initially, I cannot knock that matter. I bought a demo 3 series vehicle, like new conditions. Life is great when you are still warrantied under BMW service. Th cannot knock that matter. I bought a demo 3 series vehicle, like new conditions. Life is great when you are still warrantied under BMW service. The car was great. After the warranty ends, Patrick BMW did not make the adjustment very smooth. One day I placed a call in to get a quote to check the service light. I may not be the most experienced owner, but looking through my manual, it states I needed a coolant change based on the icon on my service display. A phone call to Patrick BMW was done to validate the service icon and it was confirmed the coolant flush was needed, I was quoted for $160. Not bad considering going outside of the dealership was very close, $150. I brought the vehicle in and now was told a different story. They used my key to read the actual problem log. It appears that I am due a new air cabin filter. Initially I was told it would cost me about $90 dollars, sure why not, a new cabin filter costs $35 on-line. Well an hour and a half later I am hit up with a $270 bill. I was told (lied to) that the filter cost over $100! This is insane, I don't have a problem spending this but upfront (well I do the xxxx replacement should have been no more than 30 minutes) warning would have been nice. I can't believe they would pull something like this to a valued customer. I was also told that they have tools to clean the filter or around where the filter is installed. Bull... Recently, my sales guy did not express interest in dealing with me because I am not purchasing a $80,000 car. I was actually seriously considering another 3 due to the fun drive. I was told that as a loyal customer, I get to "buy from them" :) Wrong, :( I was not looking forward to spending my hard earned money to thieves at this dealership. I ended up selling the 3 so that I would not have to deal with future cons. Fool me once, no you won't fool me twice! Proceed with caution! Visit other BMW service dealerships in the area if you end up purchasing the vehicle. More
We visited Patrick BMW on the coldest windiest day of the week. Chilled to the bone, we were in no mood to buy a car that day. When a gust of wind brought Terry Shoemacher to our side. We told him what we we week. Chilled to the bone, we were in no mood to buy a car that day. When a gust of wind brought Terry Shoemacher to our side. We told him what we were looking for and the price range. He immediately showed us several cars and explained each and allowd us to test drive them. We went inside and warmed by his friendliness and good coffee we continued our discussion. Terry was able to find a car that met our expectations. When we picked up the car he patiently explained to us how to operate all the accessories. We are very pleased with the attention shown to us and definately will recommend Patrick BMW and Terry Shoemacher. More
Vince, my client advisor, did a great job of finding a car for me that was already in transit to the U.S. and got it routed to their dealership for the sale. Even got the car sooner than I expected and c car for me that was already in transit to the U.S. and got it routed to their dealership for the sale.

They could not have been more accomodating! I needed a car for a month to bridge the time when my new BMW would arrive and they rented me a new 5series for the sme price as a 3series because they did not car for a month to bridge the time when my new BMW would arrive and they rented me a new 5series for the sme price as a 3series because they did not have a 3series.

The sales team are knowledgeable about the cars, very friendly and always a pleasure to deal with. I am very satisfied with how my service adviser treats me and would never consider taking my car anywhere else. In my four plus years of dealing with Patrick I can not think of a unfavorable experience. I highly recommend Patrick and talk to Gary Davis, he is a great guy to deal with. More
I had been searching for a BMW for a long time. I saw the vehicle on the website called in, spoke to George Sarkisian and told him I was interested in this particular vehicle. Several days later I made the d vehicle on the website called in, spoke to George Sarkisian and told him I was interested in this particular vehicle. Several days later I made the drive to Patrick BMW and my wonderful experience started from that point. I worked with Angelo since George was not available. We did a complete walk through of the BMW and Angelo answered every question I had and then some. After the test drive which was a unique experience it was decision time. I felt like I had known Angelo for years at this point. Throughout my time there was never any pressure for me to purchase the car. I have bought many cars over the years but, Angelo by far has been the best salesman I have had the pleasure of working with. I believe he was honest and fair and has followed up with me since my purchase. Angelo made my trip and overall experience at Patrick BMW well worth the drive. I will recommend anyone looking for a car and great service to theis dealership! Thank you for making this an enjoyable experience. More
