I’ve been in the car business since 1999. I’m originally from Chicago, IL, and lived in Florida for 20 years before moving to Rochester. I love finding the perfect car for my customer's wants and needs, but when I’m not here at work I enjoy scuba diving, snow skiing, traveling, fish keeping, yoga, weight training and I’m also a Licensed Commercial Pilot.

The salesmen Sam was the one I bought the car from and he knows what he is doing. He was very thorough when going through the car and all of its features. He was friendly and easy to talk to as well. Would definitely recommend buying a car from Sam Castelli if you are in need of a new or used car. More

Purchased dream BMW from a wonderful dealer While down in Rochester over Thanksgiving weekend and I stopped in park place to look at a recent off lease BMW X5. The staff was very curteuous and h While down in Rochester over Thanksgiving weekend and I stopped in park place to look at a recent off lease BMW X5. The staff was very curteuous and helpful, more so than some of the twin cities BMW dealers. Typically with my baby face, I don’t get much attention from the sales staff. While the typical dealer paperwork can be long, I felt it went pretty smooth for not having bought a car in 7 years. If you are sick of the hetic and sometime snobbish twin cities premium dealers, take a trip south for a refreshing dealer experience. Thank you Sam and Tony! More

High Quality Dealership We have bought/leased several BMW cars over a period of years from this dealership. They are a quality operation and take the time to insure customer We have bought/leased several BMW cars over a period of years from this dealership. They are a quality operation and take the time to insure customer satisfaction. One of the best parts of the dealership is the amount of time that they spend insuring that you are familiar with the newest features of your new car. Highly recommend this dealership! More

Top notch service Sam was very thorough when explaining things, answered all my questions and concerns, always offering me drink or food while waiting. This was my firs Sam was very thorough when explaining things, answered all my questions and concerns, always offering me drink or food while waiting. This was my first time buying a car, I knew what I wanted, they knew what to get me and met my needs. My credit history was border line and they pulled me through for a car. Thats just showing how hard they worked for me. On top of that he offered to drop the car off at home because I drove there on my own. More
