Exceeding all Expectations! Purchased a pre-certified BMW a few years back for my son and it was time for a new one. I typically dread dealing with car dealers, but this was an A Purchased a pre-certified BMW a few years back for my son and it was time for a new one. I typically dread dealing with car dealers, but this was an AWESOME experience! Dealt with Laura F, Kevin P and even the owner Tom D went out of his way for me. They gave me a great price for new vehicle and a very good trade-in amount! They were very organized as well! As the papers were being drawn up, the new car was being prepped, and we were in and out of there in less than 3 hours! Better treatment than at any other dealership we have dealt with including Bentley! Will be back again!!!!!! More

Quality, relaxed and complete satisfaction. This is my 2nd purchase from Circle and I can't say it enough how laid back and low pressure this dealership is. Not to mention the salesmen and servi This is my 2nd purchase from Circle and I can't say it enough how laid back and low pressure this dealership is. Not to mention the salesmen and service department. I have yet to ever have an issue with any of them. My current salesman, Danny Wong was excellent. He was extremely patient and never ignored any of my questions plus gave a full explanation via email, which is rare to find with a true salesman. Most of them just ifnore you until you go away or return an answer at their convenience. Danny not only returned every single email and call, but went above and beyond in trying to help me by guiding me in the right direction each time we became close to a purchase (even if I didn't want to hear it haha). The day we finally made something happen (which took an easy 2 months), I think everyone, including Mr. DeFelice was happy. Buying a car is never simple. Theres a ton of research involved and with that comes many questions and not every sales person will provide the true honest answer and quickly. Despite all the hurdles we had in this purchase, I still hands down have zero desire to walk into any other dealership. Circle proved me right in knowing the quality of the product I was buying and the loyalty that stuck behind it. I would absolutely refer Circle to anyone in the market for a BMW and to use my guy Danny, he by far surpassed my expectations and I am truly grateful. Thanks so much Danny, Phu, Tom and the rest of the team at Circle! More

4 time customer, never met the owner it's a 4star review for the dealership, however it seems that the owner should make point of meeting customers like me - 1 purchase, and 3 leases over it's a 4star review for the dealership, however it seems that the owner should make point of meeting customers like me - 1 purchase, and 3 leases over the past 23 years! If he's on-site, he should at least thank you for your business when you're picking up a new vehicle. This is Business School 101 !! More

150% Satisfied !!! If you're looking for a great pre-owned vehicle and are within a days drive of Circle BMW I would highly recommended you consider getting in touc If you're looking for a great pre-owned vehicle and are within a days drive of Circle BMW I would highly recommended you consider getting in touch with Anthony. I recently drove from Rhode Island to New Jersey with "1st date" intentions / take a look and if all is well, BUY - which I did. Circle has great prices and quality products & Anthony Gagliardi is upfront & a pleasure to buy from. During the look/buy process I had a few questions and contacted Mr. Tom DeFelice the Founder & Owner of Circle. Within hours Mr. Defilce emailed a response in the late evening. Even with 100+ employees Mr. DeFelice treats a potential customer with a personal touch and a small business warm fuzzy handshake - very much appreciated ! More

Best car buying experience ever From the moment you walk in the door, it becomes a pleasant journey. Jennifer at the front desk was delightful. I can't say enough about my salesman P From the moment you walk in the door, it becomes a pleasant journey. Jennifer at the front desk was delightful. I can't say enough about my salesman Paul Richardson, he was fabulous and I wouldn't hesitate to refer him to anyone looking for a new vehicle. Even Moe in the finance office was joy. All in all, I enjoyed the buying experience almost as much as driving the car itself!! Tom DeFelice can be very proud! More
