Update: The dealership made things right and have paid - Amslogisticsfl

Update: The dealership made things right and have paid me for the work I did. Dealer owners not trustworthy. I am a driver and made a delivery of a Ford 150 and they have not paid me for my work. They are not serious people. I have tried calling them several times and they have yet to pay me. If they aren’t responsible with the people they hire, they won’t be honest and reliable with clients.

I found the vehicle I wanted on line and set up a test - Darlinchoco

I found the vehicle I wanted on line and set up a test drive with Harold two days later. The car was ready to go when I arrived. It turned out the car didn't exactly fit my expectations. There was no pressure to buy it and Harold showed me other possibilities. I did test drive another, but decided I would keep looking. There was no attempt to dissuade me and I left feeling pleasantly surprised. I would certainly go to Gulf Coast again if I was in the market for one of their vehicles.

Looking for a second car for my husband - katnsfl

Harvey Ward greeted us and made this whole experience a pleasure. He asked us what we were looking for and immediately lead us to 3 vehicles that met our criteria. 3 test drives later we had made up our mind, and never once did we feel pressured to buy. When we set out to look at used cars this morning did I imagine we would be driving one home this afternoon but he made it very easy and pleasurable. I will recommend him to anyone who in the future asks me if I know where they can find a great car and a super salesman.

Great buying experience - Silverado

Michael Nicolas came highly recommend when I was looking to trade in my Colorado. He answered my call on the first try and from there it was gravy. Searched another dealer and couldn't deal with the hassles and sales talk. After several phone conversations with Michael, I met up with him and immediately I knew this guy knew everything there was to know about Silverados and all it's bells and whistles. He's very knowledgeable and very pleasant to deal with. He went out of his way to make me and wife comfortable with the deal. The whole process from sales and purchase was within a short time, not like other dealers where it seems you'll spend your day there. Michael Nicolas is a great asset to your origination and dealer.

BUYER BEWARE. - DylanChristner

BUYER BEWARE. SELLING BRANDED TITLED VEHICLES. I will never deal with this dealership or Russel Larkey, or Russel Hernandez ever again. My wife purchased an f150 from them and three weeks after we purchased it in the title process the title was deemed “not actual mileage”. This is considered a brand on the title and devalues the vehicle significantly. We contacted Russel L and he said they have never heard of such a thing happening like this and reassured us they would look into it and get it fixed. I never received a call from them for a week so I called again. Russel L said they were still looking into it and he said he would call me the following day and he promised he would call. So after not receiving a call for another week I called again and he told me he has been so busy and forgot to call me back again but the manager Russel Hernandez was involved in it and he was going to make things right and get the title fixed. After almost two months of calling them and getting nowhere I went back down there in person and demanded to speak to the manager. When speaking to Russel Hernandez he told us he was just now notified about the situation. (Mind you this was months after I originally called, so Russel larkey lied when he told us he has someone looking into it.) Russel told us he’s not worried about the situation and he will contact carfax and he would take the vehicle back in on trade but the trade amount was 10,000 less than what we paid which was 5,000 less than what we still owed. We were NOT upside down on this loan, the only reason we were upside down was from the title brand and the fact that the dealer was lowballing us. He said he would buy it back from us too but it was still going to put us upside down on it since the value he was offering us caused me to have to pay the dealer 5,000 dollars to clear out the loan. This was cash out of my pocket for their mistake. He kept saying he would get it resolved if he bought it back from us but wasn’t considered about getting it fixed for us while it’s still in our possession. So we are in a position where we are having to pay for their mistake. He also informed us he had this issue with two other vehicles before but apparently lied about this when we first confronted them about it because I was told that this has never happened from Russel L. All they wanted to do was sell us another vehicle and lowball us on the vehicle we just bought from them. I contacted a lawyer and the lawyer said I would end up spending more in lawyer fees than what I could gain from the dealership. We tried trading the vehicle in at all the major dealers in Lakeland and they all wanted to offer us half of what the vehicle was worth because of the brand. We spent months with Carfax and the state of Florida trying to fix it and we got nowhere because it happened when the vehicle was in the hands of the dealership. Finally when they bought it back and me paying the 5,000 to get the loan paid off they were so rude in the office. Russel Hernandez would not even look at us or apologize for the mistakes. They would not give me a receipt for the wholesale purchase so I had to take pictures of it all on my phone of the paperwork. Of course I was worried because all they have done was lie to us. After selling it and waiting 6 weeks for the refund and checking in every couple weeks they never even started the refund process for the extended warranty. Russel Larkey told me several times that it was being handled and clearly he was just telling me what I wanted to hear. After the seventh week I called and spoke to the finance manager and she told me she called Russel L and he said “I am not involved in any of that” which was also a lie because he was part of the entire situation. He was the one who told my wife where to sign on the wholesale paperwork and showing they still owed us 1400 dollars for the warranty. They made a fool of us having to call and check every week thinking something was being done when

Wow what a Experience!! - bfburton850

Our experience at Ultimate Image was exceptionally awesome. We were looking for a SUV and we had some credit issues but that didn't stop my Sales guys we first met with Bobby West and if you ever go there you will always remember him he's such a down home kind of guy. No matter what obstacle tried to get in our way Bobby continue to try and let me tell you about Garrett Cofield although I was getting a little unsure of our getting the car this man came and introduced himself to us and got the info and I can tell you we walked out with a smile on our faces those guys over there are AWESOME. I truly recommend this dealership to anyone looking for a car. And by the way I met Rob White and he's just as funny and cheerful as on the commercials. Thanks guys!!!

Today I drove 3. - frankj02459

Today I drove 3.5 hours (from Ocala to Sebring) to potentially purchase a used 2023 Ford E-Transit from this dealership in Sebring. The listing on their website was FG61927A. I called prior to leaving Ocala to make sure that the vehicle was available and was told that it was on the lot and abvailable for a test drive. I again asked if it was viewable today and was told "yes" by Amber B. their internet sales specialist. I arrived and met with Francklyn who is a salesman at the Chevrolet dealership. He checked on the vehicle and found that it was being driven by someone. He wasn't sure if it was that dealership, another Alan Jay deaslership or a potential customer. He apologized and told me that he would call me when the E-Transit returned to the lot. He never called me back! I am starting to wonder if the vehicle had been previously sold and not removed from Alan Jay's website and Auto Trader. I also thought that maybe the vehicle was more of a "bait and switch" and was not actually for sale. The price listed (and confirmed with Amver) was $27,995.00 - a deal almost too good to be true! With the return trip I spent 7 hours travelling back and forth. I am quite upset with this dealership's trading practices. I think that once they realized that the vehicle was in fact not available for sale they made up the story about it's whereabouts. Pretty crappy way to conduct business - or should I say a shady way to conduct business.

This is place has the best customer service also they are - medicarmychick77

This is place has the best customer service also they are very friendly and knowledgeable.

My husband and I drove from Ocala then to Auburndale - Diane

My husband and I drove from Ocala then to Auburndale looking for our family retirement vehicle. We were about to give up but I said, 'Lets go to Orlando". We visited several lots & was discouraged with the inventory presented. On our way home I saw the vehicle I desired. My husband walked into the office spoke with the owner & sales representative David. We were treated with the upmost respect. Test drove & needless to say. We are the proud owner of an Nissan Armada. Thank you all for being so helpful in helping us attain our dream vehicle. I will recommend them anyone.

Worst dealership ever, I consider anywhere else. - Charsavage11

Worst dealership ever, I consider anywhere else. They lie about everything. If you think I’m lying, try to call for maintenance I bet nobody picks up. It’s a total scam and they need to be reported.

I purchased a 2014 Z51 2 LT Corvette on Sunday 10/26. - Reggiebuddy

I purchased a 2014 Z51 2 LT Corvette on Sunday 10/26. I drove 3 1/2 hours there from north of Daytona Beach and over five hours home after the purchase due to inclement weather and traffic because of the rain. Anyway, small price to pay for my dream car!… Well, I hope. Major noise coming from the suspension front and rear when going over any bumps. Didn’t notice it when I took a short test drive or due to the highway speed and hurricane type rain on the way home. But the very next morning I noticed it just going 13 miles an hour through my neighborhood. The entire first day, no response from the Service department. I sent him the audio this morning of the noises, and now over four hours later no response. I called the service department directly and no one would “pick up”. The operator said that my salesman, David P. was actually off today. He could’ve let me know that in a text when I conversed with him this morning. I hate to bother anybody on their day off. He deserves it and has earned it.… anyway, I will gladly update my mid-rating stars once this is rectified correctly. Fingers crossed. Stay tuned.

Very poor knowledge by the salesman, no explanation of car features service is poor many times. Not flexible and does not put customer serv8ce first. Can be c rude.

I have visited this dealer on multiple occasions since I - Dino Torres

I have visited this dealer on multiple occasions since I have always owned a Hyundai and have had curiosity when new models come out. On all my visits, every single salesperson would work against me. Mr. Oscar Torres has been the only salesperson to provided me with a great deal at a price I wanted to pay. Buying a car at the dealer is a terrifying experience for some but it moves effortlessly when you have a salesman like Mr. Torres on your side.

Same as other posters. However, I reversed the roll an asked them once the sold my car, I would give them $99.00 in lieu of me giving them $99.00 up front. Heard nothing but crickets on the other end. LMFAO.......It's a total scam.

these people will take your money and give you junk in - junk

these people will take your money and give you junk in return, their warranties are not worth the paper they are written on, and you will be very sorry you ever went here for any reason! they sell cars and trucks that will be worthless within months and the staff will not only turn their backs on you, but will tell you they don't care and to "f***-off!". go anywhere, and I mean anywhere, but here!

I made an Inquiry about selling my car and the young lady - framingtakeoff

I made an Inquiry about selling my car and the young lady over the phone gave me the run down... "Bring in the car, we'll go over it and tell you what we think we can sell it for, if you agree the car stays with us for 90 days and if we don't sell it you owe nothing." So...I clear my Tuesday morning and sit an appointment for 10:30am to do just that. I get there and the young guy greets me and just immediately pulls up cars on line that are not even comparable to my car saying this is what he thinks he can sell it for. Mind you didn't even go out and bother looking at my car either, Brought up a 2011 RS Car that has 3500 miles on it and said see...this is what I think we can get for yours. Mine is a 2011 Yenko Camaro w/ just over 18k miles, Supercharged with every bell and whistle available... Not even close to an RS Wasted my morning guys, Thanks. A total waste of time.

Denzel did a great job when we required warranty work for - stephaniezavitsanos

Denzel did a great job when we required warranty work for our 2018 MKX. He was very professional and courteous. Beth also handled an issue late on a Friday afternoon of Memorial Day weekend in Denzel’s absence and we were extremely appreciative of her assistance.

Awesome Dealership - Karlita

I went to to buy a car on Thursday and I did not have much of a down payment and Juan made it work to where I was able to purchase a car, the car runs great and although it’s not a very new car it’s in good condition. Everyone there is very nice they all have great customer service and they make the process easy. I would recommend Marvin Motors 100% to anyone looking for a used car. If you ever buy a car there ask for Juan.

BUYER BEWARE. - scottym512

BUYER BEWARE. I made the mistake of buying a 72 El Camino from Gateway Classic Cars of Tampa online. I'm pretty sure they had an office-wide belly laugh afterward. Their pictures were of course all slick, shiny, and pretty. They didn't bother to disclose the paint had major orange peel until it was already on a truck headed my way. Then when it got to my house the driver gets it off the trailer and into my driveway. I sign the bill of lading, and he takes off. I proceed to take off in the direction of a car wash and made it all of 150 yards when it dies. I had to have it towed to a garage. They found that the carburetor was junk and completely flooding so badly that the crankcase was full of gas. After a new carb, it was still cutting out and backfiring. They found that the electronic ignition was wired incorrectly. That had to be fixed. Then I find out that even though it was advertised as having air conditioning, it did not work. So to date I'm out an additional $1300 not to mention upcoming air conditioning work, and paint job. I haven't driven it ten miles yet. If you choose to look at one of their cars, do so with a very critical eye. As a matter of fact I would advise you to look elsewhere. I envision all of these guys sitting around in cheap polyester plaid suits.

Purchase of Truck - Tommie Head

My pickup was destroyed by Irma. Went North to purchase a replacement. Found one in Cocoa that I wanted, made an offer and went inside to pay for it. The sales contract was jaked up with all kind of add on cost, my wife and I walked out although I the truck was perfect for me. Received several phone calls to return with promises to honor what we agreed on. No thank you, can't trust you. Saw a Honda Ridgeline advertised on line at Pre-Owned Gallery. I called and made an offer for an out the door price. I received a call back while I was checking out other trucks confirming acceptance of my offer. Went to the office, drove the truck and loved it. The bottom line that I wrote the check for was the cost we agreed to on the phone. I love doing business with people who do what they say!

BUYER BEWARE, SCAM ALERT I purchased a 2007 Chevy Tahoe - DBreezy

BUYER BEWARE, SCAM ALERT I purchased a 2007 Chevy Tahoe LS from Check Auto after being told it had a clean 5.3L Vortec engine that had been recently inspected and was in great condition by the owner. I paid $400 for transport and an additional $1,000 deposit via Zelle. Within 45 minutes of delivery (about 20 miles of driving), the vehicle overheated and the check engine light came on. A mechanic inspection revealed the vehicle did NOT have the advertised 5.3L engine—it had a mismatched “Frankenstein” 4.8L engine with no coolant, incorrect spark plugs, engine misfires, and clear signs of poor-quality repairs. I was told the engine needs full replacement, costing $5,000–$6,500. A second independent mechanic confirmed the same. The pictures were also deceiving as the car had multiple peeling clear coat areas not shown in pictures. When I contacted the dealer, they dismissed the issue and claimed it was essentially not their problem because the car was sold “as is.” There is also no signed purchase agreement because the paperwork was returned to me by UPS because of an address error. Despite clear misrepresentation, they have refused to work toward a resolution or refund. I can't, in good conscience sign the paperwork as it was not the car I paid for. I’ve already spent over $1,400 trying to diagnose the issue and even offered to compromise, but they have refused all reasonable solutions. Based on my experience, and similar reviews from others, this appears to be a pattern. I have filed an official complaint with CarGurus as well as the Florida Motor Vehicle Field Operations Office (Region 6.) If you’ve had a similar experience, and by looking around it seems many have, I strongly encourage you to do the same.

Such a pleasurable experience purchasing vehicles. With Bert, you have a relaxed conversation, not a long sales pitch. I have bought multiple cars at Coastal Auto, and every time, the transaction is fast, consistent and simple. I Highly recommend Coastal Auto & Truck Sales.
