David Fishburn

The first red flag was my appointment was given to Marino L because he was new and needed someone to practice on. The whole time I was completely taken advantage of it was because I obviously wasn't very kno L because he was new and needed someone to practice on. The whole time I was completely taken advantage of it was because I obviously wasn't very knowledgeable, and confident with cars. I was extremely overcharged, and to make matters even worse, the car they sold me was in bad shape. The car I bought has no Hood Prop. There was a mysterious white spray all over everything under the hood as well. The windshield fluid was empty, and the windshield wipers are old and need replacements. There's so much corrosion and rust on the metals under the hood, like the battery. The radiator hose is in bad shape and dry rotted. Coolant was empty. The break fluid was empty. The tire they filled up that I was told was just low, had a nail in it, and it needs to be replaced. The interior of car was filthy, and there was an empty spray can rolling around in my trunk. I’m so disgusted and insulted. David F the business manager handled the final paperwork, and when I was in the office flew past things, and didn't really explain much. I apparently signed up for GAP insurance which was mentioned  that I didn’t want. That was another $1,500 on top of everything. I found out about the GAP insurance before I left, and was looking over the paperwork. He canceled it, but it was too soon for it to go through. I followed up with emails to David F twice and he completely ignored me, and so I had to handle the cancellation myself. More

Marino Laderosa was wonderful to work with for this very stressful process. From my first call to our last interaction, he was professional, kind... he followed up with my questions and concerns. He is th stressful process. From my first call to our last interaction, he was professional, kind... he followed up with my questions and concerns. He is the reason we purchased from this dealership. He went above and beyond the call of duty to work with us. I would definitely work with Marino in the future. While Dave from financing was following the rules for an out of town / state registration we found him to be condescending -Marino was working to ensure the process was smooth- it did not seem that way with Dave. To avoid future glitches finance should do a better job reviewing where a customer intends to register the car... and communicate to sales exactly which identification is required. Communication from Marino was clear and organized. Marino.... Thank you! You are the great for what we needed. For a young man- you really rocked it out... as if you had years of experience under your belt. Good Luck to you.... hope to deal with you again for our next purchase. Maggie and Joe More

While we were surprised to receive such a low trade offer on our Porche Macan, we did otherwise have a pleasant experience purchasing our 2026 X6. When we picked it up the to tiny wasn’t exactly as we’d hope on our Porche Macan, we did otherwise have a pleasant experience purchasing our 2026 X6. When we picked it up the to tiny wasn’t exactly as we’d hoped. They immediately offered to correct it to our liking at no charge. The Genius Tech lady (Heaven) was an absolute delightful young g lady. Ash Alce is a no pressure internet sales associate. The gentleman in the office doing all paperwork preparation was very nice. While he informed us of what other warranties there are, at no time did we feel like a hard sell situation. Overall a good experience. We sold the Macan to Carmax for $4,000 more. More
