At Scherer Mazda, we've been a family-owned business since as far back as 1905, serving the Peoria area including Pekin, Bloomington, Springfield, East Peoria, Washington, Eureka, Dunlap, Ottawa as well as Central IL. We offer top-quality vehicles with top-quality service to match.
While the family originally made its start with the Buick brand, the Scherer dealership is looking to take its business to the next level, offering a new and improved product with the Mazda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.
If you have any questions or inquiries, feel free to get in touch with us using the form here on this page. You can also give us a call, or stop by whenever you're available and we'll be happy to help you then.
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

Honestly, it took us 1 long day to go around pioneer parkway looking for a car that suits us. It was only Keri in Mazda who took the time and effort to listen to what we want and deliver what we need. W parkway looking for a car that suits us. It was only Keri in Mazda who took the time and effort to listen to what we want and deliver what we need. We enjoyed our time with her as there was no pressure, no pushing and no hard selling involved. She allowed us to choose it on our own and really took time to explain all the features of the car inside and out. She was so patient with us and we really appreciate her taking the extra mile. Scherer mazda made us feel at home 🙂 More

The process of purchasing a new vehicle was easy and customer-oriented. I felt welcomed and was able to make decisions that best met my needs. Keri did an excellent job of asking questions as to what wa customer-oriented. I felt welcomed and was able to make decisions that best met my needs. Keri did an excellent job of asking questions as to what was important to me as the consumer, and I really felt she was invested in ensuring I received the vehicle that met those needs and priorities. Keri was beyond friendly, communicated very well from the moment I walked in the door to post-purchase follow-up, and her willingness, again, to be customer-first is the reason my family has now purchased 8 vehicles from Scherer Mazda.

Anthony C. is the perfect Consultant. If you want a no pressure Consultant that will find the perfect vehicle that meets every single criteria on your list, work with Anthony. He’s genuine. He doesn’t tel pressure Consultant that will find the perfect vehicle that meets every single criteria on your list, work with Anthony. He’s genuine. He doesn’t tell you what you want to hear just to make the sale. He doesn’t push you into something that is above your budget. Working with Anthony was the best car buying experience I have ever had. Since I was so ecstatic about working with Anthony and my brand new Mazada, my mom went in today and bought one from Anthony, too! More
