While the family originally made its start with the Buick brand, the Scherer dealership is looking to take its business to the next level, offering a new and improved product with the Mazda brand. We offer a wide variety of new, high-quality Mazda models to our customers with popular models such as the versatile Mazda CX-5, the upscale and comfortable Mazda6 and the efficient Mazda3.

Here at Scherer Mazda, you're treated like family. This comes from our long history as a family business, which began back in 1905 when Otto Scherer opened his first Buick dealership in Palmyra, Wisconsin. He worked closely with his close friends and automotive giants such as David Dunbar Buick, Walter Chrysler, and C.W. Nash. The Scherer dealership was built on Scherer's philosophy of good service, quality products and great prices, which led to his respected position as a successful business owner in southern Wisconsin.
A man history won't soon forget, Scherer's business accomplishments were felt throughout the community. When his original store building burned down, Scherer took it upon himself to have a new building constructed that would house not only his own business, but a post office, medical and dental offices as well, thus "The Scherer Opera House" was built, being the first building in Palmyra to offer electric lights.
The Scherer Family has been proudly serving the Peoria area for decades and looks to do so for years to come.
"We don't want to boast too much, but if we do, we've got the goods, we've got the prices, we've got the style, we've got the service and we have a clean way of doing business. Two thousand satisfied customers to prove it.
If you are not one, can't we add you to our list?" - Otto E. Scherer, circa 1905

My sales person Keri was very professional & knowledgeable. The person who did the paperwork was very condescending and he is the reason for my low rating. He even lied to me about my insurance knowledgeable. The person who did the paperwork was very condescending and he is the reason for my low rating. He even lied to me about my insurance company as he was trying to sell one of the service bundles. He also failed to give me the paperwork described in the Mazda certified pre-owned folder. He even quoted incorrect information regarding the warranty which was stated in the paperwork. When I mentioned Keri had given me different figures regarding the warranty he almost rolled his eyes before he looked up the figures & admitted that she was right. I don’t know his name as his signature is not legible. More

Keri was extremely helpful through the entire car buying process. No questions were left unanswered. She was able to find the exact color and package we wanted within a day or two. There was never a phone t process. No questions were left unanswered. She was able to find the exact color and package we wanted within a day or two.
