My Husband Avilo Oliva bought a Certified Pre-Owned Maserati GT from Maserati of Santa Monica in May 2023. We decided to buy this car vs another cheaper one that was on sale by a VW dealer based on sa Maserati GT from Maserati of Santa Monica in May 2023. We decided to buy this car vs another cheaper one that was on sale by a VW dealer based on salesperson's (Elena Redkin) feedback that car was in pristine condition and "you can never trust what non- Maserati dealers do to cars before they sell them". We live in Idaho and had the car delivered to our home a week or so later to find out a list of issues: 1) Car was involved in accident with both front fenders repaired; never disclosed by dealer but took a total of 5 minutes for my Maserati dealer in Idaho to confirm that. 2) Steering column making noise when turning the wheel. 3) Front wheel had a small bent (same incident?) and wheels were totally out of balance 4) Driver mat and upholstery on driver side totally ripped apart 5) Central back leather panel in between the seats came with 3 "penny-size" holes 6) Exterior carbon side-view mirrors were chipped and losing layers 7) Car manual was missing We already spent $2300 on the certified pre-owned GT to bring it back to the condition a certified pre owned car should had been since the beginning. Maserati in Italy just inquired me who the dealer was given the situation. We have complained now for 3 months to all Managers in the dealership, including GM Eric Martin who doesn’t even respond to my husband emails. If you want to buy a Maserati, take your business elsewhere. Maserati of Santa Monica is the worst dealer we had to deal with in our lives. More

Can’t tell you how much I love doing business with this dealership. Both Kevin and Paul Marino went above and beyond the call of duty for me. I always get my Maserati’s from them and will continue to in th dealership. Both Kevin and Paul Marino went above and beyond the call of duty for me. I always get my Maserati’s from them and will continue to in the future. I always feel welcomed and taken care of when I work with them. And love their maintenance department. They all do a A+ job and I always recommend Paul to my friends and clients when they are in the market for a Maserati. More
