From the Sales staff, Managers and Service department, they are all very friendly and extremely helpful. I love Mazda cars! I'll always go to this dealership when looking for a new car. They take the time to listen and help in every way. Even after purchasing a car, they are there whenever you have questions or concerns. Excellent job to Biggers Mazda! Other dealers could learn from you. Also, the staff doesn't have a high turnover. That says something about this dealership. More

Bigger's Mazda scores another Home Run for me I stopped by Bigger's Mazda to look at the new 2017 CX-5s that had just arrived. I was 2 years into a 3 year lease of my current CX-5, so I wasn't ex I stopped by Bigger's Mazda to look at the new 2017 CX-5s that had just arrived. I was 2 years into a 3 year lease of my current CX-5, so I wasn't expecting to be able to do any type of deal, but just in case (wishful thinking maybe), I brought both of my keys fobs with me. Well, to make a long story short - I drove off the lot that day with my new 2017 CX-5 with the biggest smile on my face. This is the third car I have purchased/leased with these folks, and I swear it gets better every time - and the first time was already great! I used to deal with Marco, but this time I was met on the lot by Franco. He was very polite, listened to my questions and then sat down with me to discuss my options. He made everything work out for me, going the extra mile to make sure I was happy. And once again, I have to mention Ron Liszka, who recognized me and came out to chat and was super professional as always. He was able to make the deal happen by rewarding me for being a repeat buyer and easing the price down that last little bit (not so little actually) to make the deal happen. Lastly, I would also like to mention the Finance guy John, who was filling in that day but was a pleasure to deal with as well. As I said in my other reviews - if you are looking for a Mazda, you HAVE to check these folks out. You are doing yourself a disservice if you don't. Total professionalism, no pressure, no "BS", just trying their best to make all parties happy. And although this was a Sales transaction, their Service Department is top notch as well. I am a customer for life of this dealership. I am hopefully retiring soon and moving out of the state. You can bet your last dollar however, that when it's car buying time, I will be right back at Bigger's Mazda - these folks are that good. Thank you to everyone at Bigger's Mazda!!! More

First time buyer It was my first time going to buy a car and I originally wanted a Jeep, but being a student, it just wasn't in the budget. So I decided to lease inste It was my first time going to buy a car and I originally wanted a Jeep, but being a student, it just wasn't in the budget. So I decided to lease instead. I looked online and I looked at Chevy, Honda, Hyundai, Dodge and Ford and Biggers Mazda had the BEST deal. I went in on a Tues, was greeted by David, who was very kind and helpful. He very knowledgeable about all of the cars on the lot and explained all of the differences to me in each model and what each model had as far as specs and additions. He answered all of my questions and didn't miss a beat. Listened to what I was looking for and offered what he thought would be the best option for my needs. We sat down and talked numbers, and there was no pressure to buy on the spot, but as it was my first time leasing, I decided that it would be smart to sleep on it and come back with the decision. I came back on Thursday, ready and confident that Biggers Mazda was it. Everyone there was friendly, from the guys in finance and down to the porters. I walked out of there with the CX-5, feeling excited and confident in the deal I had made. If you're a first time buyer like myself, or you're experienced, then I highly highly recommend that you go in and have a chat with David, or one of the other auto salesmen. You'll get a good deal, and they know their stuff. Very honest and genuine people, and hassle free. And the service is spot on! More

A great experience. When I went to Biggers Mazda in Elgin I went with the intention of just test driving the CX-5 and the 6 back to back. I was still undecided as to whic When I went to Biggers Mazda in Elgin I went with the intention of just test driving the CX-5 and the 6 back to back. I was still undecided as to which one I should get. Rich came out, listen to what I was looking for and set me up with one of each to drive. After a brief but very informative intro to the cars and their new features Rich handed me the keyfob and I was off. Rich stayed behind for both test drives which I thought was nice. I was able to test drive both without any pressure and I feel like this enabled me to make the right call on which one I was going to buy. I ended up going with the 6. The buying experience was great. I told him was I was looking for in a monthly payment and not only did he and the team there meet it, they worked to get me a even lower payment. This was a really great experience and I would recommend anyone looking for a Mazda to stop in at Biggers. You won't be disappointed. More

Pleasant and very helpful When the car I was looking for was not available at the dealership, the exact model was located and delivered in very short order. As I have not bough When the car I was looking for was not available at the dealership, the exact model was located and delivered in very short order. As I have not bought a car in over 10 years, the technology had changed significantly. I got a through explanation of all of the features and drove away feeling very familiar with my brand new Mazda 6. The transaction was easy and I think they gave me a very competitive price. More

The Best Three years ago my wife and I purchased a used vehicle from Biggers Mazda. Marco was the salesperson that arranged the sales transaction. Normally I d Three years ago my wife and I purchased a used vehicle from Biggers Mazda. Marco was the salesperson that arranged the sales transaction. Normally I don't purchase used vehicles from car dealers, but they had the right car at the right price. This November we were in the market for a new car and Marco solicited us from all of my TrueCar researching thus, he remembered the transaction we did some three years earlier. We were at that time focused on a 2016 Honda CRV but with all the good reviews on the Mazda CX 5 we decided to stop by Biggers and to test drive the CX 5. We are so glad we did. Marco was able to find the one we wanted and the buying experience was as in the past, excellent. We love the new car and highly recommend this dealership and to Marco Palacios. ***** plus! More

Highly Recommend --- No B.S. I purchased a 2014 Madza 3 i Grand Touring in June 2014 from Biggers Mazda. I had been to a few other places and being a young woman purchasing her I purchased a 2014 Madza 3 i Grand Touring in June 2014 from Biggers Mazda. I had been to a few other places and being a young woman purchasing her first new car, I had a lot of trouble everywhere I went....except Biggers Madza in Elgin. I walked in, told Franco exactly what I wanted and told him if he didn't have it, not to bring me anything else to test drive because I'm not interested in wasting even MORE of my time today having just been at Napleton's Schaumburg Mazda for 3 hours negotiating prices on the wrong vehicle. But this isn't their review. At Biggers Mazda, Franco listened and respected my request. He talked me through some different options of the car I was looking for and I was done within the time frame I gave him when I walked in the door. I walked out of a few dealerships that day and Biggers was the first one to present me with a relatively fair price with the first offer. That spoke volumes to me. Everyone was friendly and genuine without acting like they worship the ground I walk on. The manager (Ron, I believe) was very straight forward with me and didn't do the whole, "oh you're in luck, we have this special coupon you can have if you sign today" B.S.. The person who took me through finances and my warranty (Chuck) was very genuine and listened to my needs and was able to accommodate them with the special insurance package by making some adjustments. My one area for improvement which is more about the car itself, than the dealership, is that within a week of having the car the monitor screen wouldn't wouldn't always turn on when I started my car. I told them this was happening and that I expected it to be looked at since it only had 20 miles on it by this time, and since the camera worked when I brought it in a week later, they said to bring it back if it does it again. It still malfunctions but usually fixes itself within 30 minutes of driving so I've never made it to the dealership with it still broken, but it really makes the rear view camera pointless if it won't work when I turn my car on to back out of my parking spots. I am disappointed that this is the case and that they weren't going to look at it to see if they could find the problem. Now it has been 3 months, and I received an email from my car dealer, Franco reminding me of my first free oil change appointment. I appreciate that it wasn't an automated email from the company. Overall, it was an excellent experience and I feel confident that when I go to purchase another vehicle in the future, I will definitely be going back to Biggers Mazda in the future. More

He was unde Biggers Mazda not knowing exactly what I wanted. The salesman was extremely helpful and knowledgeable without being overbearing or pushy. He was understanding and respectful of my time and my situation. He went out of his way to try to find me the vehicle that I wanted and ultimately sold me one that I'm VERY excited about and happy with. The manager was also very personable and respectful and never felt us feel pressured or insignificant. This is the third vehicle that I've bought from Biggers Mazda and fifth from the Biggers family of car dealerships and I've never been disappointed. More
