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While the family originally made its start with the Buick brand, the Scherer dealership is looking to take its business to the next level, offering a new and improved product with the Mazda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

Big Job But Done Great! I have a 2003 Miata LS which has been a great car.

It was stalling out at traffic lights and when idling and was becoming a real nuisance and dangerous. I called Scherer Mazda and got an appointment quickly. I dropped it off and then received a call that there was definitely problems. My motor mounts has broken, the oil pan was leaking, it definitely needed a tune up, and a few miscellaneous other things, totaling close to $3,000. We take great care of our cars and the Miata only had a little over 80,000 miles on it. I told them to go ahead with the repairs. It took almost 5 days in the shop, but when I drove it away, it ran like a new car. All repairs were done, and done well, and I feel that Scherer did a great job, better than a non-dealer shop, where I am sure I could have saved a little money. But I had the peace of mind knowing that my 18 year old Miata was taken care of by Mazda professionals! Kyle Eisenbarth in service kept me updated and was extremely professional and helpful. I am hoping to keep my 2003 Miata running like new for a few more years! I will be returning to Scherer for service and eventually a new Mazda! More

As always "the best" I arrived at my appointment time and immediate service began. I enjoyed two cups of coffee and enjoyed the wait time, watching tv.

Noticed the difference immediately. Brooks-miller service guy was friendly and very kind and efficient. Again, I truly enjoyed my experience. I also noticed no one was wearing a mask, not even the cashier when paying and checking out. I had a mask on but still a concern. More

Scherer Mazda has excellent service. You are fair and honest with your prices. I know this because I went to the Fird dealer across the street to get an estimate on repairing my fuel line.
