Dave Strassman

I came to meet Dave Strassman and Silver Spring BMW purely by accident after spending the previous four frustrating months searching for just the right car. My search took me all over my local driving purely by accident after spending the previous four frustrating months searching for just the right car. My search took me all over my local driving area, experiencing various car manufacturers, dealerships, and sales people. Arguably, my “want list” was very particular since it is a car I hope to own for many years to come. This surely was a contributing factor to my frustration level, but that was all about to change after Dave responded to my online request for information regarding a car of that BMW of Silver Spring that was in production at the BMW factory in Germany. I had all but given up on finding the right car, but Dave was immensely patient, empathetic to our frustrations, and determined to get us into the right car. He worked with me, a lot on his own personal time, to help me navigate through my “want list”, explain some of the cryptic language from previous sales people, and to assist me in working through the issues. Dave proved himself to be kind, honest, patient, and very determined. He worked diligently on our behalf to get us a great deal with BMW of Silver Spring, making the process as effortless as possible for me and my wife. At one point, my wife and I found some time to drive over to see the car together. It was, however, unannounced and prior to them performing the final preparations. None of this affected Dave. He immediately juggled his schedule for us, had the car brought around (un-prepped) for us to look at, and spent quite a lot of time with us to get the BMW App working so as to make the final delivery go smoothly. He took us around the dealership, and introduced us to other BMW of Silver Spring employees, all of whom were incredible. My wife and I are now enjoying the car we had always hoped to have, and we have Dave Strassman and the team at BMW of Silver Spring to thank. Great job folks, and thank you all so very much! More

I Spring. I got a great deal on a new X7, but the knowledge, courtesy, and professionalism of the sales team made this buying experience exceptional.

In all my years buying cars, particularly BMWs, I can genuinely say that I’ve never had a better, more enjoyable, or more honest car-buying experience than I did working with David Strassman. From the mo genuinely say that I’ve never had a better, more enjoyable, or more honest car-buying experience than I did working with David Strassman. From the moment we started talking, I could tell David wasn’t your average salesman. He’s humble, straightforward, incredibly knowledgeable, and above all, genuinely passionate about cars. No pushy tactics, no fluff — just a real conversation with someone who actually cares about matching you with the right vehicle. David made the process feel effortless. He listened, he respected my time, and he treated me like a fellow enthusiast rather than just another sale. It’s rare to come across someone in this business who operates with such integrity and authenticity. And the experience didn’t end there — Naiem, the finance manager, was equally phenomenal. No nonsense, no games — just clear, honest numbers and a fast, respectful process. He made the paperwork part (which is usually the worst) feel quick and painless. This was, without question, the best car-buying experience I’ve ever had — and I’ve had a lot. If you’re a true enthusiast or just someone who appreciates being treated with honesty and respect, go see David Strassman and Naiem. They’ve earned a lifelong customer.

My experience with BMW of Silver Spring is mixed. While my sales person David S. was excellent, very knowledgeable and made the process easy, the financing team was most difficult to deal with. It to While my sales person David S. was excellent, very knowledgeable and made the process easy, the financing team was most difficult to deal with. It took my 3 days to get my car. The finance guy Steve was not the best to work with, he kept reminding us about how much money they are losing on the new car when in fact this is not the responsibility of them. I guess he just cannot take off the sales person hat. For some strange reason, the finance team was responsible for my trade, asked for a CarMax match, they gave us $2k less than what I have printed. They also tried to jack to finance rate. Overall, sales person great but NOT the finance person. More
