We purchased a 2017 BMW X1 in August 2016 which took some finding. With the help and expert advice of Ralph Berthiez we eventually ended up ordering it from the factory in Germany. Ralph Berthiez guided us all the way through the process. It went flawlessly. We love the car. Recently we availed ourselves of the service of a BMW "genius" to answer questions and to explain further many of the amazing features of this car. Our "genius" was Theo Patterson. He was very knowledgable and he took real delight in explaining the various features, beyond the allotted time! An over-all great experience.

I had a wonderful buying experience at BMW of Sterling. Sal was fast, efficient, and informative throughout the buying process. I was impressed with how quickly he processed my deal, while at the same time filling me with knowledge about my dream & Mid-Life-Crisis Car. Ha! In 3 years I'll be back for another car and I will ask for Sal. Similarly, their management team was enthusiastic for my business and helped make my deal happen. Richard - Fairfax

I inquired twice about a 3 series BMW, I had one automated email and I asked to speak to a real person and never heard back. I inquired again, same thing.. still nothing. Very poor communication. I will pay more money for a BMW somewhere else because it seems they do not care.

My wife and I recently purchased a 2017 BMW X5 from Sal Ufyani at BMW of Sterling. We have been casually looking at Mercedes, Audi and BMW for the last two years, allowing us to visit many dealers in the Northern VA area. BMW of Sterling was the first dealer that actually listened to what we want, didn't try to upsell us with features we didn't need. When we wanted to talk price, they didn't roll out a bunch of lower level models or used cars. They worked with us to get a deal that made everyone happy. Sal is one of the few car salesmen who didn't try and push us in one direction or another, or try to hard sell us on something we didn't want. He just listened and made every effort to meet our needs. Without question, I would recommend BMW of Sterling to anyone looking for excellent service and value.

My wife and I have been shopping for an SUV for more than a year, giving us a chance to try out many of Mercedes, BMW and Audi dealers in the Northern VA area. Sal Ufyani at BMW of Sterling made buying an enjoyable experience. Sal was the first salesman that listened to what we wanted and tried to get it at the price we wanted. He didn't try and upsell us on a more expensive car by justifying features we didn't need, nor did he try and talk us out of features to sell us a cheaper or used car with a better margin for the dealer. He found the exact car we wanted and worked with us to get the price we wanted. He provided truly exceptional service. This makes him unique among the sea of pushy luxury cars salesmen. I would recommend him without hesitation to anyone looking to buy a BMW. BMW of Sterling offers a unique combination of service and value.

BMW of Sterling has been serving my car since 2012; however, 10/3/16 was the last time I will EVER give them business. I took my car in for a priority service informing the rep that I was traveling from Woodbridge VA and will require a loaner car at drop off. I scheduled this service on 10/1/16, with the rep guaranteeing a loaner car. However, when I arrive at the facility to drop my car off I was informed by Andrew (service advisor) that a BMW loaner was not available, but enterprise car rental was my other option. I wasn't opposed to driving a rental car from enterprise, as I have done before, but the options made to me were between a pick up truck and mini van. My car is a 335i which is small in size for a reason. I've been such a loyal customer to this service center and being that I drove 45 minutes to include traffic and tolls I truly felt that Andrew could have accommodated my needs better. Not to mention I called the morning of my appointment to informed them that I was running late due to traffic, in which they could have informed me of the matter at hand during that time. I felt that my time and loyalty to BMW of Sterling was not valued. Very distasteful experience!!!!!

Let me start by saying, we bought a used 2013 Ford Edge for $15K, not a BMW or Rolls Royce. I had no idea we were going to such a high end BMW dealer. This place was modern, clean and a very intimidating at first. A family from the sticks of WV.......we felt like fish out of water when we first got there, but every staff member was very professional and polite. They treated us exactly the same as the people buying $75K vehicles. They treated our kids great too. Sal Ufyani was an absolute pleasure to work with. He used facetime on his cell phone to show me the entire car before making the 2 hour trip to Sterling, VA. He was very honest, polite and professional. He helped us get exactly what we needed for our trade and also had the Edge cleaned inside and out before we got there. Josh Jones handled the financing and was great to work with. He also treated us very well and made us feel comfortable.

Last weekend I purchased a certified 2013 535i. Purchase process was very smooth, quick, and - most important - free of pressure. Sales rep Usman Khattak answered all the questions and provided me with some options to consider. During the first visit to this dealer I drove several vehicles that allowed me to narrow down to two specific models. On a second day I came with my wife, she tested both vehicles as well and 15 minutes later weve decided to make a purchase. I also financed this vehicle through BMW. It took about 45 minutes to process all the paperwork. BMW Financial services provided the best interest rate in comparison to Bank of America and Wells Fargo.Just like BMW is the Ultimate Driving Machine, Usman Khattak provided me and my family with an ultimate customer service.

I had over 25K dollars worth of warranty work performed at Sterling BMW. My service advisor was Stefan Vrabel, now in management. (Transmission replaced/ seat motor/tires/ battery/ valve cover gaskets,etc. I went to Hilton Head, SC for vacation in 07/2016. BMW Hilton Head tells me my battery is defective, at two years old. I miss two days of vacation and over 600.00 dollars for a battery replacement and programming. BMW Hilton Head, SC tells me the battery was not programmed properly and shortened the life of the battery. I contact Sterling, VA. BMW, where the battery was replaced. They tell me that Hilton Head shouldn't be trashing their dealership, Hilton Head over charged and they can't help me. I contact BMW North America and I am told they can't help because all the BMW dealerships are independently owned. They suggested I call Sterling BMW and keep calling. They don't return my calls. great customer service, I am a firm beliver "what goes around, comes around."Buyer beware after the sale and warranty expires. I wonder if the all the repairs were performed because I was under warranty. When under warranty, the charges go to BMW North Amerca.

Originally received a quote for a 320i xDrive at a different DC area BMW center and decided I would see if Sterling BMW could match it as it is much closer to my home. Well not only did they match it, they upgraded the vehicle to a 328i xDrive for only $3 more a month and it even had more options. Sal Ufyani was extremely receptive and made sure I was getting the best deal, as my location/temporary housing situation is very complicated. I haven't owned a BMW since 2005, and this reminds me why I shouldn't have left. Overall, very pleased with my experience with Sterling BMW.

My husband and I walked on Saturday to test drive a car and regretted every single minute of it. We came in at about 2:00PM and waited 10 minutes just to be greeted by a disgruntled employee named Sal Ufyani. He made us feel absolutely unworthy and undeserving to be setting foot in this showroom. He greeted us with sheer reluctance while my husband patiently explained to him the car that we wanted to test drive and told him about the trim of preference. To this, he sarcastically replied - "What do you mean by trim" REALLY? Is this a guy working for one of the premier car showrooms? He is clearly not familiar with industry terms. What a shame!After this, he cat-walked three times from one end of the showroom to another in an unsuccessful attempt to find a sales-rep for us. All this while when the showroom hardly had any customers. He made it seem that he is working "hard" for us. Whereas in fact, all he did was strutted his stuff. All this while, we were made to just stand at the reception going through the agonizing experience of watching him strut. No one asked us to sit. No one asked us if we wanted any water (it was a hot scorching day). We decided to go and take a seat at one of the tables. This happened to be a sales rep, Felix's desk. We explained to him what we wanted and while interrupting us, he asked Sal if he was free to help to which Sal replied, "No, I am helping a customer" clearly he wasn't. He was too busy doing nothing at all. We sat at Felix's desk, feeling totally unwelcomed and unwanted. He showed us some cars that "he will try to locate in his showroom" and walked away never to return within the 15 mins that we were there. We walked away. BMW lost a customer for life. A company that does not hire the right staff to treat customers well..does NOT deserve my business.

Bought a E60 5 series with most of its service history from Sterling BMW. Previous owner had replaced valve cover gaskets 3 months prior to purchase. After driving it for several months I noticed leaking oil. Took it to private shop that informed me the valve cover gaskets were leaking. Took it back to S BMW since it was still under repair warranty. Their diagnosis was $370 and that the valve cover gasket were not leaking but the upper timing chain covers were ($3500 for repair). Took it back to another shop for R/R of both timing chain covers and valve covers for less than cost quoted by Sterling BMW.

Make sure you everything in writing before going to this dealer. I drove 4 hours from Pittsburgh only to find a shady, unfriendly dealership.When I arrived, there was no one at the front desk and no one asked if I needed help. I interrupted a Sales Rep, and I was informed my salesman was with a customer and I would have to wait. I tracked my salesman down. The salesman was shuffling between me and another customer the entire deal.I then went to the "Cafe". A girl was reading a book and there was no food laid out; No hot dogs and everything looked bare. I purchased the only old breakfast sandwich available.I went outside and looked at the S5. It had 3 new tires and 1 bald tire with different tread (Front passenger). There are dents and door dings all over the Audi. When I told the salesman, he said "your dealing with a used car". Did they ever hear of dent wizard? The 3.0T badges are missing on the fenders and I saw a lot of paint work. I expected a BMW/Rolls Royce Dealer to have a pristine used car available.I then met George atFinance. George had a no care attitude with an unfriendly personality. He said "we're way off" and never came down on the price listed for the Audi. He did give me a little more for my trade. We were almost $100 off a month compared to the emails and verbal discussions with my salesman. I wasted time and money coming to this unprofessional dealership with shady used cars.

This review is written as a follow-on to a previous positive review I gave to the dealership. I returned to BMW Sterling after seeing a used MINI at their sister showroom advertised for sale. Because of my past relationship with the BMW salesperson, I asked him to show me the MINI and take it for a test drive. Everything up to and including the day of delivery was fine...it was not until after the sale that I was truly disappointed. When I had notice a small piece missing from a part of trim on the car, I was told there was possibly "no good will" remaining to help address the issue, given the claim the dealership lost money on the deal. Who would say such a thing to a customer that had demonstrated loyalty by returning to the dealership??? At the very least, give a customer the benefit of the doubt and look at the issue BEFORE making such a statement. Ultimately, it was such a minor issue that I took care of myself, with no help from the dealership. This was a frankly disappointing end to an otherwise decent buying experience.To be clear, this is my review of the BMW-side of the Sterling dealership...I had no contact with any salesperson at MINI Sterling, and therefore I have no comments/issues about the sales/service team there. As for the car itself, the MINI Countryman is truly a fun and remarkable car.

Unfortunately due to the airbag recall issue affecting many of the older BMW models, I was not able to close a deal on a used X5, but through it all, Ralf Berthiez helped to patiently walk me through all of the steps it would have taken to purchase, including offering suggestions to possibly lease a new model, or look at a different model altogether. His in-depth knowledge of the BMW brand was not surprising, but was well appreciated. The dealership currently has a excellent selection of used X5's that they cannot move on....an unfortunate situation for buyers and sellers all around. Nevertheless, BMW of Sterling has earned my potential future business.

After searching the country for the model and options that I wanted, I bought my 2010 535i M-sport from a California BMW dealer in October 2014 with a CPO warranty that expired in January 2016.The CPO warranty was critical as it covered several repairs during my ownership. All of this work, plus maintenance and warranty turbo replacement, was performed to a high standard by BMW of Sterling.Fast forward to March 21st 2016. I go in for an oil change on my first visit after the CPO expired and the Tech finds oil in the coolant expansion tank. Service Advisor Andrew Dukes took me into the service area where the Tech showed me the issue an answered some questions. I let Andrew know my concerns as these fluids flow through separate closed systems and the mixture could indicate major issues (eg: blown head gasket). I was also concerned that the issue was not uncovered during the last repairs under CPO, water pump and oil filter housing gasket. Andrew the took my concerns to Stefan Vrabel discussed with me and promised to get back to me as soon as possible. I was leaving on vacation the next day so I chose to park my car at home and wait to hear from Stefan.While I was out of town, Stefan worked with BMW of North America to get most of the repair cost covered as goodwill. He communicated via phone and email to keep me informed. When I returned, Stefan and Andrew worked with the Techs and Service Foreman, Jason Brown to get me back on the road same day. Jason even called to discuss my most detailed questions.I am very happy with the the way the BMW of Sterling Service Team stepped up and I will continue to use and recommend them.

I called in on Tuesday Feb 9th at 4 pm twice to fix an appointment to service my car.Left two messages to call me back, but surprisingly nobody called me back. I then called on the 10th morning when I got a spot to service my car. The service personnel at the desk told me that he would try to get me a discount on what was to be done on my car. After repairs, when I went to get my bill, I was told that the ladies handling accounts refused to give me any discount. The charges were rather high for what was done to my car. I have had good experience in the past with other staff when I did repairs earlier. I guess there is a new management in place where importance is mainly to numbers and not relationships.I expected your service department to call me back when I left a voice mail. Then when I went for the service the next day after fixing the appointment, the experience was not good too with the pricing when I was told that the staff would do his best to give me discount.I request the management to please take a look at this.

This dealer would not accept a deposit on an advertised 2013 Ford Fusion SE. Dealer sent me the paperwork to complete after not returning my calls. I tried to confirm the fax number to fax signed documents back. I had to email them back instead. Dealer wanted proof of insurance and a photo of check texted to salesperson. I sent everything. Only after dealer received it, did they bother to say it got sold. This was the same morning I sent everything back. Dealer does not do business fairly. Better Business Bureau gave them a D-! I filed complaints with the Attorney General and the Better Business Bureau! Management sucks and does not communicate with the sales person.

I bought a used 2015 Toyota S Premium from BMW of Sterling. I worked with a dealer named Mr. Augie Borges. Augie was an absolute pleasure to work with. Although we were apprehensive (as one normally is when visiting a dealership to buy a car), Augie did everything to put us at ease. He did everything in an upfront, professional manner. There was no nonsense involved. He did not try to sell us anything we did not need, did not try to push any financial products on us, and always treated us with the utmost respect. I couldn't believe this was happening, and kept expecting that a "bait-and-switch" or other car salesman play would happen. It never did.I would without hesitation recommend purchasing from BMW of Sterling and from Mr. Augie Borges. The next time we are looking for a car, we will definitely look through their inventory and prioritize car shopping with them before anywhere else.A very happy customer indeed,Karthik Kumar

This dealership reneged on a deal for a pre owned BMW. After seeing the car I called the sales person and after some back and forth with u is manager we agreed on a price. The salesperson asked me to send my driver's license and insurance information so he could have the car and paperwork ready for me when I came out. After doing this and wiring money to my checking account, I was about to drive to the dealership when he texted me that another client was now looking at the car. I called and asked him if they were reneging on our deal and he said no. I asked to speak to his manager and was told he was busy and would call me. I immediately drove out there to buy the car and was told when I arrived that they sold it to the other person. The manager never called me back. I will never work with this dealership again. Cannot be trusted. Wasted a lot of my time.

I am a first time BMW buyer and long time enthusiast and this dealership totally tarnished the brand and image that BMW tries to promote. I was provided misleading information about my vehicle after a direct inquiry about a known issue. Upon receipt of the vehicle after it was shipped directly to another BMW dealer I preferred, it was clearly not what was described or told to me. The only saving grace from my view is that I have family who work for BMW who represent all that BMW NA tries to promote. If it were not for this, I would never purchase another BMW again. My issues could have easily been remedied after my complaints but they refused to consider any alternative I suggested other than to say it was not their problem.

Kevin Soltwedel was great to work with. Best car purchase ever. No hardsell. Kevin explained everything completely. Ordered a 2016 BMW 428xi GC. No games with the pricing. Just wanted us to have what we wanted at a fair price. I recommend everyone to work with Kevin as I know he will take care of them. Very satisfied with my purchase and strongly recommend Kevin for his great customer service.

I bought my first car from Passport BMW in 1984. Had dealt wth 5 dealerships in the area and feelt that BMW of Sterling is the best. I bought a new X3 in 2005 from the dearlership and a new 328 in 2014. Extremely happy with sales and service. Never had trouble with any of my bimmers. Not all my maintenance and repairs are done by the dealership and I spent no more than $7k over the past 10. + years of ownership of the x3 and that include oil service, tires, brakes, everything...However, the scheduled maintenance and warranty services provided by BMW of Sterling has been excellent, nothing but praises. Work with service advisor Mark, Joe and Peter in the service deaprtment recently. I plan to get another new bimmer from then dealership.

My experience with this dealer started off on the wrong foot when the first Sales Advisor neglected to follow up with me to keep me inform. I then decided to go to Passport BMW, but was later apologized to and invited back to this dealer with the assistance of a new Sales Advisor. Initially, I thought I was receiving great service until the week after of leased a 2015 750i. I started receiving e-mails and alerts stating that the car needed an oil change even though it only had 200 miles on it. I called the service department and spoke with a manager who said that I should ignore it even though the automated e-mail and calls kept coming. I sent an e-mail to my sales advisor that went unanswered in addition to a few other folks. Now I am receiving e-mails from BMWFS stating that they don't have record of my vehicle being registered even though hard plates were issued to me when I leased the vehicle on 09/22/2015. My sales advisor ended up admitting that the vehicle had been on the lot for a long period of time and they neglected to check the fluids prior to leasing it to me. Why didn't the service manager tell me this when I called? As a loyal BMW customer, I have learned that this is a dealership that only cares about the sale. They could care less about you after you have taken delivery and completed the customer satisfaction survey. My sales advisor made sure to ask me to give him all 10's on the survey. I have sent a complaint to BMW North America so that I can complete a new survey.

I am strong believer in the impact of personal relationships. I was in the market for a vehicle and had my eye on a particular one. In fact, I saw the same vehicle at another dealership for a good price but really didn't like the vibe I got from the sales guy. I did some more research and connected with BMW of Sterling where Kevin Soltwedel reached out to me. From the moment we connected, he was diligent and persistent but not in an uncomfortable way. When I got in, Kevin answered all my questions, had a great disposition, worked with me on the numbers. He explained all the features little details of the vehicle, the capabilities it had, the ones it was lacking. I felt very comfortable with him - great salesman, and a great guy!I worked with Heather Reese on the financing and she was fantastic. She was very friendly, gave great suggestions about financing options. By the time I was done, it was just me, Kevin, and Heather left in the whole building; oh, and the cleaning crew. You wouldn't have known. Heather didn't rush me through financing, Kevin stayed put and even helped me clear out my trade-in.This was most definitely a great car-buying experience.If I or anyone I know is in the market for a new vehicle, this will be my suggestion to them.

Jason and the staff at BMW of Sterling were all fantastic to work with and I would definitely recommend them. We contracted everything by phone and there were no "surprises" when we arrived to pick up the vehicle. I cannot give this dealership enough praise! Also, they made us feel welcome which is no small task at a large dealership! I wish every experience that I have had could have been this easy!

He was very easy to work with and I bought a used Volvo from him. The gentleman who helped get me set up with financing was great too.I also must say the people that work here all seem to really enjoy their jobs and are enthusiastic about their cars.The place is amazing too how it is set up (waiting area, with nice TV's, sofas, and a coffee/snack bar....very comfortable place if you have to hang out a while your car is being serviced.

I'm a long term BMW owner. But, my experience with this service department has been nothing short of miserable. And this is NOT the first time I've had problems with them. The transmission warning light light activated in my wife's X3 came on yesterday. She was concerned and so was I so I called the Service Department to ask for help. Of course they were all busy with other customers which is ALWAYS the case at this dealership, and would not take my calls. So, I left several messages with return contact info but NONE were returned. This dealership has lost my business and I can not, under any circumstances, recommend them!

Your ability to effectively respond to the issue and provide the resolution quickly exceeded my expectations. My great appreciation for the exceptional customer service you extended to me, of which you demonstrated with ease and professionalism. You made sure all the is were dotted and ts were crossed and held true to your word. Great service makes customers feel that you care about developing a long-term relationship that means more than just making a sale.I also want to commend Mr. Greg Maxiutin. With his assistance I was able to find exactly the car I wanted and I am very satisfied with my purchase of a 2016 BMW X3. Greg also ensured my car buying experience ran smoothly as he was attentive, knowledgeable and helpful throughout the whole process. I am pleased to recommend BMW of Sterling to anyone looking to purchase or lease his or her next car. When customers feel taken care of they are more inclined to buy from you again.Regards

BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE, AWFUL SERVICE DEPARTMENT, STAY AWAY! I wish I could them 0 stars. I dropped off my car for service, nothing major just a few things that I wanted the service department to check. They gave a loaner car for the day, the car was in ok shape, a bare bones 2014 328i. While my car was in the shop, I had a family emergency, where I had to drive NYC with the loaner car. The loaner car had less than 11K, so I am driving on a local road and the transmission dies on me. Stuck on the side of the road, I waited for the tow truck for 2 hours to show up and take the car to local dealership in NYC, mind you this is all during a family emergency. I was left in NYC without a car, i had to make arrangements to get back to VA The dealership in NYC said they would fix the car, so today (September 8, 2015) I receive a call from BMW of Sterling telling me to go to NYC and drive back their broken, poorly maintained loaner car and if I dont they would charge me for everyday it was not in Sterling. This dealership has awful customer service, their poorly maintained car broke down on me and now they expect me to pay for the shipping cost to bring it back to Sterling. If they cant keep their loaner cars well maintained, how well do you think they service your car? Not very well. They DO NOT value customers, go elsewhere for service on your BMW.

BMW of Sterling have a horrible service department. I bought a brand new 2014 BMW X6 with only 7 miles on it. after driving it for about 3,000 miles, i noticed a vibration during soft braking and slowly noticed the front tires going bad. When i took it in the first time, they took about two weeks only to tell me the tires are bad, and replaced the tires ASAP. Their explanation was that the manufacturer tires were defected. i drove again for another 3,000 miles and noticed the exact same issue happening. Took it in and they claimed that the tires are bad again, but this time it is supposedly under normal condition. They claimed that the tires are not under warranty even if it has only been 3K miles. I spoke to a legal counsel who contacted BMW, which in turn BMW contacted me and asked me to re-inspect the vehicle one more time. They then claimed that it appears that the tires are bad again and asked me to sign a waiver on per-suing the legal action, for them to replace the tires for me again. I went ahead and signed and made it clear to them again, that if this continues to happen, they will keep replacing my tires. i then drove the car for another 8,000 miles and noticed the same thing happening. I took it in to BMW and they said at this time the case is closed and they will not replace the tires. Now they claim that this is normal for the X6. They are now saying that it is the way i drive the car. One technician asked me how do i drive the car, and he said that i should drive it easy because he thought i drive it crazy. Another technician (the manager) asked me how i drive the car, and he said i should drive it fast, because the X6 is a sports car. So it seems to me, that BMW doesn't really know what is wrong with the car and they are not experienced enough to fix this car. Obviously, something is causing the tires to go bad, and i have showed this to multiple mechanics who claim that there is definitely something wrong with the car. I have two small kids and i am hoping that nothing happens during the time i am on the road with them. The entire interaction with them have been very unpleasant and unprofessional. The representative of North America BMW was also very rude on handling this situation. I will never recommend anyone from buying any BMW. i really don't want to sell this car to someone else, because i don't want to screw them like BMW has done to me. On another occasion, during the same month i bought this X6, i bought a 528i for my mom. after she drove it for 9 months we noticed that the mat on the passenger side getting wet. we took it to BMW in sterling twice, and both times they said that there is nothing that they see and that because there is a bump in the back, they claimed that the water was coming in from the back bump through the light. after the second time, it really made no sense to me what they were saying, so i took it to a local body shop, who showed me that the door on the passenger side was not sealed properly. so i took it back to BMW and showed them what the problem was, they then took it and fixed. BMW is only concerned about selling new cars and don't want to take care of any issues. They are rude, unprofessional, and inexperienced. i am really disappointed with my experience and will definitely NOT recommend BMW to anyone.

I'm a real stickler for customer service so it was important to me that there be a level of comfort between me and my sales person and indeed there was. From the time I called to inquire about my car until I drove away with it, Kevin provided the consummate customer service that I believe to be equal to the BMW product he sold me. Since the sale he's been right by my side (or so it seems).. Heather, in Tags and Title, was a gem with the patience of Job and even today, 30 days after my purchase, Robin was soooo courteous and talked to me over her phone with a smile in her voice as she assisted with an issue I had with my tags.What a groovy experience!!!!!Kevin, Lowell, Heather and Robin- THE DREAM TEAM!!

I have always been brand loyal to BMW. My experience with BMW of Sterling far exceeded that of any other dealership I visited. I had spoken with three other dealership based upon and internet search. However, I was not able to obtain the vehicles as advertised. In short, spoke with the General Manager of BMW Sterling on a Monday, every sales person was busy so he put us in touch with Felix Bighem, who happens to be the General Sales Manager of their Rolls Royce Dealership. He had a car that I liked, made an incredible offer and I drove her home within 48 hours. This has been a most positive experience and every single individual that we met at BMW of Sterling has been professional, knowledgeable and forthright. Was it worth it to drive 38 miles out of the way? Most certainly. This is by far the very best new car buying experience thus far. We are considering a smaller BMW SUV purchase later in the year. We most definitely will drive another 38 miles to get another from this most impressive team of BMW professionals at BMW of Sterling!Five thumbs up!

I bought what I thought was new BMW Z4 from BMW of Sterling. Later I dicovered the warranty had been started a year and 4 months prior to my purchase so that I did not receive the standard 4 year warranty. After 3 months of the dealership not returning my calls I meet with an attorney and informed the dealership of my meeting. They then sent me a one year extended warranty which is not as good as the original warranty, and the extended warranty is still 4 months short of the originally paid for new car warranty. I recently spoke to 2 employees of BMW of Sterling including their customer advocate who said they would get me help, and left 2 messages for the sales manager. BMW of Sterling has not returned my calls for 3 weeks now. I am forced to take legal action to enforce the terms of our sales contract, not something I am looking forward to. I will never buy a car from this dealership again!

Failed to Offer GAP Insurance

These folks failed to offer me GAP insurance, although I bought everything else they offered the night I bought my X3. My car was totaled 8 months later by a deer, and boy was I surprised to learn I was underinsured and now owed more than $9,000. It's not as if I was buying a Yugo, for crying out loud. I expected BMW to take care of me. And they just let me down. I'd never even heard of GAP insurance until my car was totaled. BUYER BEWARE. Get GAP insurance if you finance. DO NOT leave this dealership underinsured. Now fighting to get refunds of my maintenance upgrade and extended warranty. What a mess. One department says I have to let the refund go to the lienholder, but the lienholder is telling me I have to pay for everything now. BMW's own instructions are conflicting. Never again will I deal with this company! HORRIBLE experience.

My local BMW dealership tried to low-ball my BMW trade-in and talk me into a high monthly lease payment. I was introduced to Mo Noorestani at BMW of Sterling. He was a pleasure to work with and I would highly recommend him to any of my friends who plan to buy a luxury car.

I took my 2007 Mini Cooper S into Mini of Sterling for an airbag light and service. While the airbag light was high priced (they had to replace the seat bottom for a sensor), they told me I needed a timing chain and tensioners too. Dave contacted MINI and worked for me to have MINI cover this repair, which they did. THANKS DAVE!! Also, MINI of Sterling gave me a loaner MINI the entire time mine was in the shop. OUTSTANDING SERVICE!!!I will return.As an aside, my wife and I were strolling through the Rolls Royce showroom. We have had a Bentley in the past and were curious about the new Rollers. We were dressed in casual clothes and definitely did not look like buyers. The Rolls salesman came out and even though we told him we were just looking, he talked to us and made us feel welcome. Answered our questions and was very pleasant and friendly. IF I ever hit the lottery, the dark blue coupe' will be mine.

Our experience was very poor, the sales consultant was very ill equipped in terms of using a computer to search a vehicle, answering questions on the vehicle features as well as managing time. We identified a vehicle and wanted to test drive it. The Client Advisor took us out for a good 10 min walk in the cold to the new vehicle parking lot behind where he couldn't find the vehicle and then realizes that the vehicle could be at a separate lot away from the dealership. We have small kids with us and I had no idea it was going to be that far a walk outside. We quickly told him to get the vehicle in front and inform us. We asked to look at another vehicle and it took 30 mins to be found and we asked 4 or 5 questions about some of the features in X5 and were given some nonsensical responses at which point we stopped asking questions about the vehicle features.We made 2-3 trips to the dealership and each trip took 2-3 hours and that is before the price negotiations, such a waste of time.

I took my BMW to a local mechanic for repairs that were covered under my extended warranty plan. After 10 days of back and forth the warranty refused to pay for the repairs at that shop. I took my vehicle to BMW of Sterling for a second opinion. I had my vehicle back in 2 days with all repairs covered by the warranty company. It runs great now! Next time my first stop will be BMW of Sterling.

My experience working with the salesman Ralf Berthiez, at BMW of Sterling was outstanding. Ralfs professionalism and knowledge of the entire line of BMWs both new and used was excellent. I was looking for a new car, which would give me the all wheel drive feature needed in northern climates as well as the rainy south. I also wanted a sporty car. Ralf directed me to the new 428i BMW, which I absolutely love, including all the driving and navigation features. The car has a hard top convertible, which is an excellent choice over all the softtop convertible sports cars I have owned in the past. I had never leased a car before and Ralf was able to explain all the advantages, both from a financial and service aspect. I can honestly say that working with Ralf Berthiez thoughout the entire car buying experience was the best I have ever had in purchasing or leasing a car.

This is a worst dealership I have ever seen in the last 15 years. They attract customers with low ePrice on their dealership website. When we make appointment for test drive, they start negotiating with MSRP sticker on car (even higher than build price on BMW Website). When asked about posted price on the website, they say it is not managed by them and do not honor the price on their website. The sales manager went inside saying he will work on the numbers honoring the price and came back after 30 mins saying we informed website management company to update the price and will be changed in 24 hours. WOW....What a great sales manager.......

Matt, the young man who assisted me in the service department exemplified excellent customer service. Warm, professional and attentive, he really left me with an extremely positive perception of this place. The waiting area was large and accommodating. Free coffee and tea was offered, plus there was a little cafe where one can purchase snacks and other drinks. My car was also cleaned - at no extra charge! I will definitely continue to have my car serviced here.

I had several problems with this dealership. I would recommend you go somewhere else.- I bought a new car in January 2014, but it had 250 miles on the odometer. They did not disclose this during negotiation.- It took them over two months to get me my plates and registration.- They charged $500 for registration up front and said they would send me a check for the difference. They never sent me a check for the difference.- I initially purchased the ding & dent repair policy but cancelled it during the cancellation period. Nine months have past and they never sent me a refund despite numerous requests.

I have owned BMW's for close to 20 years. I have had dealer experiences in Atlanta, London England, Cincinnati OH, Louisville KY and now in the DC area. I have never had a better service experience. It started from my first call to the service department. Jason was friendly and courteous. I called Sterling BMW after trying unsuccessfully for 24 hours to get Rockville BMW to call me back. I drove almost an hour round trip out of my way to use Sterling because of their immediate reaction to my critical service problem. They worked with my after market warranty provider to ensure that my out of pocket expense was a little as possible. This was a big job and they handled it beautifully. The car drives better now then it did they day I bought it! I am now a Sterling BMW customer from here on out (including car purchases). Thank You for a wonderful experience (including the amazing loaner!).

This is an excellent dealership. Drew and company in the service department are top notch. You always have trepidation in going to a dealership for anything, but I don't have this with BMW / MINI of Sterling. They have been completely honest with me, not tried to sell me on maintenance that is not needed, and have carried out repairs quickly and thoroughly. If you live in the DC area, it is worth the trip to have them do your service. On another note, since this shop seems to be a central hub for vehicle restoration parts for body shops, they have just about every part you could want. They even were able to quickly order an obscure tool for me to complete a repair on my car, and were also open on a Saturday late when I needed a bunch of plastic clips for the body of my car, all in stock of course. While I haven't purchased a car from them, the sales staff seem nice. If they are half as good as the service department, then I will be buying my next car from them.

8/02/14: I was visiting Leesburg for the weekend and staying in Sterling, which was a blessing. I didn't have to travel far to locate a BMW dealership. Jason Gage, service representative, was most helpful with my illuminated dash light. A nail in the L rear tire set all 4 low pressure lights glowing. He had me back on the road for a safer ride. Thanks to Jason and staff for their attention to detail and extending their courtesy for something that could have been costly. I can definitely understand why the Sterling BMW dealership has been awarded "Center of Excellence." Keep up the great job. I shared the above experience with the salesman/dealership in Dublin, OH.

I have had just ok service with them in the past, but since they have updated their management, I have been extreemely pleased with the service and sales department. They will work with you and not pressure you into buying something you are not ready for. They immediately assigned me a loaner vehicle, even though I did not request one when they saw that my repairs would take more than a a few hours. I wish they had a children's section in the service department so that young children can have something to do while waiting for repairs, otherwise I would have given a perfect score for facilities.

After going around the beltway looking for that "perfect" pre owned bmw for 2 weeks I can honestly say I was disappointed that most dealers brushed me off if I could not settle for anything less then what they had in inventory. I had visited 4 bmw dealers here in the area and of the 4 the only salesman that took the time to follow up with me was Danny from bmw of sterling. he understood exactly what it was that I wanted and even though they did not have that specific car in stock danny and the pre owned manager search the entire east cost to locate one that was as close to what I wanted as possible. after about 10 days danny contacted me and told me they found a 328 that met all my expectations. after looking at the pictures online and discussing the price I went ahead and asked danny to have it ready for me to test drive because I was on a time constraint. when I got to the dealer, the car was show room ready. after a quick 10 min drive I was sold on the car and the numbers. I filled out a credit application with moe hamdan in finance and left the dealer. after my meeting I called danny and told him I was on my way to finalize the sale. to my surprise when I got to the dealer, moe hamdan had the paper work complete and ready to be signed. after reviewing all the documents to make sure my information was accurate I was signing away. the entire transaction took less then 30 mins to complete and danny was able to find the car I wanted. i'd like to recommend danny and moe hamdan at bmw of sterling for the great work.

This is the third new car I've purchased from this dealer and keep coming back because of the customer service. I'm an aircraft mechanic so I appreciate attention to deatail that they have. But most important to me was the fact that they don't cover up problems your car may have and send you down the road. Case in point, I owned a 335i which had known HP fuel pump problems of which was replaced three times. First time the car gave an indication of it, they fixed it . Sencond time I had no indication but during normal servicing they discovered a code and notified me and they fixed it. Third time it was a recall for a new and improved HP fuel pump. Each time was warranties and each time I had a loaner. No sweat. That kind of piece of mind you don't get at most dealers. BMW FOR LIFE!

When I speak of these fine men, I called them my "Dream Team!" because they were upfront with the handling my financial status without making feel less than what my credit score projected.

Mini of Sterling has a great team of advisors, technicians, as well as office staff. Before owning my Mini Cooper my husband always took our cars into another dealer/service center. I hated the atmosphere and was unsure of the car service quality, not to mention having to wait around for hours or figure out how to get home on my own...no loaner cars. Thanks to Mini of Sterling and advisor Drew Howe I can take my car in for routine maintenance or a needed repair confident that quality and timely work will be done while I wait or need to drop off.

Review is on Sales/Buying Experience on BMW of Sterling AKA BMW of Junk SalesOne can expect a much higher level of service on a used car lot in some downtown shack. These idiots in suits are not qualified to sell a bicycle let alone high end luxury cars. On Top of it their business ethics are non existent and they are shameless about it. This is my 6th BMW and i have dealt with 4 BMW dealers before. This is what happened:I finalized a 2014 550xi , agreed on a lease price, gave a $1000 deposit and waited a week as the car was on the Baltimore dock. I did this against the advice of my friend who had a horrible experience while trying to get a 2014 X3. He ended up buying it from Passport BMW a month ago. After waiting a week, i went in to get my car with my wife and 3 year old daughter. After 3 hours of agony, was told by Tos ( Finance Manager) & Greg ( Sales ) who i was dealing with, that there was a mistake in their calculation and no one could get this deal to me. I walked out frustrated and angry as for me the deal was finalized as the deposit was already taken. If i would have backed out at that point, i would have lost my deposit. This is how business deals work to me. Anyways, no apologies, no phone call, no contact from this professionally run dealership ( I m sure you get my sarcasm). Last time i had a minor issue at Porsche Dealership , the GM called next morning to fix and apologize. I understand mistakes do happen but that was not the case in this deal. I did get the same car with exactly same packages and MSRP with a lease deal which was $8/mon cheaper than what i agreed with Sterling at Passport BMW. So it is a clear case of some top manager getting cold feet on the deal and then Tos ( Finance Mgr) lying through his teeth to tell me it is a mistake and it happens rarely. Frankly, these guys are lying bunch of sleazy sales organization, only doing well coz of their location and customer ignorance. Do yourself a favor and get Passport BMW ( Sean Swartz) and BMW of Alexandria ( Paul Blakeman) involved in your quotes . you would only realize these Sterling guys are there to rip you off. Also be prepared for a switch and bait tactic, where they will promise to match just to get you in the dealership and rip you on other ways ( finance, trade off etc). I deal with a lot of sales in my job, i know how this works. In short, Stay away from this dealership! i hope BMW goes Tesla way and starts offering direct sales to customers. These type of dealerships only force customers away from BMWs and are parasites adding no value to the process.

I brought my car in on a Wednesday because the service light came on (oil change). Bijan greeted me and ran the diagnostics on my vehicle. He then explained to me what was recommended and the cost of each service. Even though the work took longer to complete (1 week total), Bijan called me everyday to keep me informed of what was going on. I appreciated that, because my previous service rep did not call me daily. My only complaint is, yesterday (the first time I drove my car after I brought it back home from the dealer), I started my car and the red service light came on again, so I am not sure if they reset it after the work or not.

I recently brought my Mini in for warranty rust. The loaner Mini was a very nice car and very clean outside, but very dirty inside. Not a big deal, but it was noticed. I left my car on Saturday and picked it up on the following Friday. I noticed and brought to attention a primer over spray and some kind of residue where the bumper had been painted. I was asked to take the car to Centerville Collision Center (CCC) a subcontract body shop in Chantilly, to have it looked at. At CCC the paint over spray and residue was instantly removed. I mentioned the roughness of the paint on the bumper and was told that the bumper had been painted before and not due to anything CCC had done. I agreed, but CCC wanted to make me happy and said they would fix the rough paint on the bumper. I left the car at CCC and got a ride to Ashburn with a CCC employee. They delivered my car from Chantilly to Ashburn after two days and had painted the whole bumper. The folks at CCC made this repair experience more than enjoyable and went way over and above to make your customer happy.

I visited the service center in the afternoon after noticing a rear underside panel that appeared to be loose. The car was looked at and an estimate provided to do the repair work. Everything was done in a couple of hours. Since I did not have an appointment I was very glad that they could work on the car the same day. Great job!

I bought 2 cars from this dealership, one brand new and the other used. The new car, an X3 I got 2 year ago, is under warranty and lately the breaks somehow did not feel right.. I was asked to go to a test drive with a specialist and explained the issue. I did a test drive. I learned that there are 2 other cars that were brought it with similar issue. I was given a loaner and the car stayed there for a few days. They replaced a vacuum valve and I test drove it again, felt better, so I got my car back yesterday. The person with who I dealt, Bijani Husseini, was great, he gave impeccable service and I received his phone calls and responded. He is very pleasant to deal with. Thank you for your assistance Bijani! With this car, there were previously some issues with the onboard light coming up and the car was taken to them 3 times finally the issue was properly fixed.

2006 X5 required extensive work, had a very nice loaner--X1--the entire time, the service department dealt with the aftermarket warranty company--who can be difficult at times--and got them to pay for a substantial amount. The vehicle drives wonderfully again, like BMWs should and I came out way ahead of what I paid for the warrantee. We're very happy.

While one can't always know what needs to be done on one's Mini, the staff never leaves one feeling that the situation is out of control. There's always a clear service plan, even when the level of work seems overwhelming. Their prioritization skills are second to none. I purchased my 2007 Mini in 2012 with 29K miles, and now have over 100K. That wouldn't have happened without Shawn Peace and the rest of the service staff of Mini of Sterling. My hat's off to the whole team!

I've taken my X3 here for service since I bought it here 2 years ago. The latest time was for state inspections, and the new tires that were recommended during the last service. The service advisor I worked with last time is no longer there, but the new advisor, Ali, was very attentive. They performed the requested services with no problems. The advisor apologized that it took longer than initially thought. The tires were on special so the overall charge was less than previously estimated. The facility is clean and the waiting room is pleasant. I can sit there and work remotely while waiting for my car if necessary. Overall a pleasant service experience.

He went over what the scheduled service consisted of and asked me if I had any concerns or issues with my vehicle. He expeditiously obtained a rental vehicle for me, while my vehicle was being serviced. He explained what the mechanic had observed during the servicing of my vehicle and proceeded to recommend that I purchase new rear tires, as they were badly worn. He made sure that the my vehicle was properly handled and kept me totally informed as to when my vehicle would be ready. The entire service department was extremely polite, courteous and friendly. I would also like to acknowledge the cashiers, who were pleasant and friendly when I was paying for my new tires. Overall, I would highly recommend BMW of Sterling for their overall customer service, quality of work performed and friendliness of their employee's.

From the moment I arrived to the time I picked-up the car everyone involved was very courteous/friendly. All were ready and able to answer any question I had. Nate handled the yearly service of my vehicle in an extremely professional manner and he also took care of getting the extra item (installation of floor mats) handled as requested. Nate explained everything that was done and also had a hood item fixed that I didn't know about. One item was a recall fix that I was unaware of and required me to need a loaner car. Nate arranged for that quickly and got me out the door.The only item on the negative side was that as I drove the loaner car my wife and I noticed a strong order inside the car. While it eventually subsided to a tolerable level after a couple of days I found out upon return that it had been treated with a chemical due to someone smoking in the car. Understand the need to do such a treatment but suggest that someone ensure that the car isn't quickly put back into service after doing so; give it a day or two.

Though I live 27 miles from the dealer and it is a fairly long trip to get out to Sterling, the great service more than makes up for the trip. I have had Shawn Peace as my service advisor quite often and I have always found him to be articulate about the needed repairs, never overselling what needs to be done, and overall a very easy person to deal with. His recommendations are always on point and unlike other dealerships where I have brought my cars to, I NEVER feel he is gauging me by selling unnecessary repairs or service. He should be recognized for his outstanding work regarding customer relations.I will continue to bring my MINI out to Sterling based on the outstanding service I have received since buying the car in2006.John Sanet

In the past I did not have such a great experience and was planning not to ever come back to your service center but my husband who also has a BMW convinced me to go to Julian and I am very glad that I did. One minor note. I will ask the loaner people and the cashiers to take a lesson from Julian and Ali (who was also very professional and friendly and when I asked him to let me know about my car before I leave my work in Rockville, MD he made sure to give me a call at 3:50 letting me know of the status of my car) as they do not seem to be enjoying their jobs as much and forget to be friendly at times. This does not affect the quality of service your customers receive but just makes them feel better about doing business with your organization.

I was able to make it on the roads and made it to the dealership. My service advisor was waiting and within minutes, I was having coffee while my car was headed to the service bay. All my concerns with the car were addressed and I was kept abreast of the progress while I waited comfortably in the lounge area. While checking over the car, the technician found that I had a bad motor mount and my service advisor was able to have this replaced under a warranty for me. After taking care of this and my other list of service items, I was on my way and my car was running like a top!I have always appreciated the level of care that my particular service advisor, Shawn Peace has shown. He's topnotch! I have always been impressed with the quality and level of service at BMW of Sterling from the minute you pull into the service bay until you check out at the payment window and your car is pulled around to meet you.

This dealership is total rip off. I visited this dealer a couple of months back while my car was still under manufacture warranty. There was a problem/tension with the pax seat belt and restrain system malfunction was kept on coming up on the iDrive screen. Service advisor Matt J helped me out and get the sensor fixed. Right after 15 days that sign came back however due to my workload constrains I could not visit the dealership for a month or more. Then, a couple off weeks back I received a letter from BMW N.A asking for a recall fix regarding rear bulbs and wanted me to visit the dealership. Service advisor Eric greeted me and who was very welcomed. I explained Eric the entire situation and Eric said I will take care of the problem and just leave the car with him. Three hours later I received a call from Eric say youre out of warranty and we need to run the diagnoses on your car and there will be $160 charge. Also, youre state inspection is expired and would like me to get that done as well . I told Eric, I dont have any problem for inspection but the seat belt issue was previously diagnosed while my car was still under manufacture warranty. He said, I will do what I can to see if there is any minor that we can fix but you need to pay $160 diagnose fee Next day Eric called me said there is $1660 charge for fixing that sensor and how would like to proceed and if you dont fix the sensor we will reject your inspection It was shocking for me to hear this from him. I have tried to explain its an exceptional issue, which existed while my car was still under warranty. However, I refused to pay $1660 as I think he trapped me to this mud and at the end rejected my state inspection and placed a rejection sticker on the windshield. At the end, I end up paying $179 just for diagnosis. WHAT A TOTAL RIPP OFFFFF!!!. They misdiagnosed my car previously and didnt fix the problem but put the patches for 15 days. Me and my other 04 colleagues were coming to this dealership from past 03 years but having this kind of experience we will never visit this deanship again.

My Audi lease is up, and Mini Cooper was the first place we looked for a new car. Turns out, the car I built was on the showroom floor. Bill and team were helpful and patient in showing us the showroom Paceman, showing us a car with nav and satellite (Yad and Steve helped), and then allowing us to test drive a Paceman. Even though the day was right after some snow and ice, the car was clean and handled beautifully on the road. After a trip to the Audi dealership, we decided to go with the Mini, and my husband and Bill came to agreement on price over the phone. Bill followed up with an e-mail credit application, and he followed up twice by phone. When we came to pick up the Paceman the following Saturday, it was smooth sailing. Bill was ready for us, and the Paceman was ready for us. Our time in finance with Mo was straightforward and painless. Afterward, Bill walked us through the Paceman, and since my phone was being persnickety, we needed Yad's help setting up Bluetooth. All and all, a very pleasant buying experience.

He kept me updated during the service. While waiting, they had several areas where I could sit. I opted for the tables in the "kitchen" where WiFi is available. I sat at a quiet table and worked on my computer so the time passed quickly. The work was done, the car was washed and they charged me nothing for the service, not all of which was covered under the warranty.

It came down to the new CTS and the BMW 5 Series...and to be honest I was leaning heavily toward the CTS. But after meeting with the team at Sterling, test driving the 535i and working out a deal that made sense....I quickly switched to the 535i. Your team did a good job communicating effectively and ensured I got the total BMW experience. Thank you...I love the car so far.

They explain clearly what issues the car may be facing and what needs to be done to resolve the issue. They are not pushy and they will only recommend work when need. This allows me to trust them The loaner car program is also extraordinarily helpful.

I saw an M3 for an advertised price. I called the sales associate and booked an appointment to purchase the vehicle. I called him before I started driving to the showroom. He said the vehicle is available for me to purchase. I called him on the way to dealership. He said the vehicle is available. I called him 5 minutes before reaching the destination to confirm the vehicle is ready for inspection. He said 'yes'. I called him when I took the last exit and he said all is well and the veichle is still ON for purchase.When I pulled over at the dealership, he said: someone is inside the dealership and made an offer (after test driving, trading-in another vehicle, and finalysed numbers) all in 2 minutes b/t I took the exit. He suggested that I wait (with a toddler in my car) until the other guy makes an offer or leave. He assured me that he can get me the vehicle for the advertised price if the other guy (making the offer inside) leaves. Finally, I heard from him and his manager that the car is sold to the other customer and they expressed apology and ask me if I am willing to pay 10K extra for a similar vehicle.Does it look like honest mistake or bait&switch?You tell me!I could have easily reserved the car for $500 if the sales associate was upfront and diligent.

Karl Mackey was a wonderful salesman. He was very responsive and patient with us. He answered all of our many questions with accurate, factual information. We never felt pressured. It felt like we were dealing with an informed friend rather than someone trying to sell us a car. I especially liked observing the way that he mentored and trained his young assistant. He demonstrated genuine caring and that says a lot about Karl's character.

I visited this dealer for 328i Xdrive vehicle. Test drove and did not participate any futher discussion on price. They have communicated to me over the phone and email about the vehicle availability and price. They promised that they beat any price or give very good price, which is common dealer talk. I received below invoice quote from another dealer asked these how much below invoice you can go. They said they do $1250 below invoice and invited me to finish the deal. During the dicussion of final purchase price, numbers did not match. They are just faking the numbers. 1)They gave me 42,650 sale price.2) Showed them edmunds 43,070 invoice price3) they said 43,650 invoice price, said 1000 below invoice they will give.4) I asked them to show me the invoice sheet. 5) Their manager Bryan came over with a sheet saying 43,250 is invoice and 43,650 sale price becoz they need to fill nitrogen and add wheel locks. Actually 43,650 is Costco/USAA price but telling stories.6) When i asked about BMW finance rebate, they said it is included in price.7) Finally they are selling me 1500 over invoice and calimed that they are selling well below invoice.Very bad expreicen overall.

I have been purchasing autos, both new and previously owned, for over 40 years in numerous locales in Northern Virginia as well as other parts of the country and overseas in England. These have included Mercedes, Lexus, Acura, Toyota, Nissan, Chevrolet and even a 1953 Bentley. I can honestly say that in all those years, Steve Burger is the finest sales advisor I have ever encountered. His honesty, candor and customer friendly efforts during the buying process as well as his prompt handling of each follow up issue was more than impressive, particularly considering it was a previously owned vehicle. Whether immediately returning my phone calls or meeting me as I drove into the dealership , Steve handled each matter in a swift, professional, yet personal, manner

My wife and I were looking to replace her primary vehicle for the first time in several years. This was to be her first new car in quite some time and she'd previously narrowed her choices down between a Mini and one other model. We spent several hours with Steve, who walked us through every model they had, the pros and cons of each, the pros and cons of new vs pre-owned, and the pros and cons of buying something on the lot vs having a car built just for Maggie. He was even-handed, very fair, and really made the process a pleasure. After we'd gone through a similar process with on the alternate model, the choice was pretty clear, both from a car perspective and a dealer perspective. At the end of the day, we'd gotten just the right car, everybody left pleased with how things had gone, and we were confident we'd made the right decision. We'd definitely go back to BMW of Sterling / Mini of Sterling and would be pleased recommending both the dealership and Steve Burger in particular.

I recently purchased a BMW at BMW of Sterling, and paid more than $10k with a check. The finance manager was rude, and took personal calls where he was shouting on the phone while I waited for him to finish. One week later, I got a letter in the mail from the dealership containing an IRS form 8300, reporting a cash transaction of greater than $10k. This is required, I understand. However, the finance manager had checked the box stating it was a suspicious transaction to the IRS. I was furious. This is not required by law, and is only to be used in cases where there are suspicious cash transactions--usually LESS than $10k--that they want to report. I immediately called the dealership, and asked to speak with the GM. They told me he was in a meeting, and asked what I wanted. I explained the situation to them. The sales manager called me back and was completely ignorant about how to use the form. He lied to me stating that it is the law to do this. It is not. He then lied to me saying it was the dealership's policy. It is not. I know two friends who purchased from the same dealership, paying more than $10k cash. Neither of them received this form with the "suspicious transaction" box checked. The dealership refused to do anything about it. He was rude, condescending, and abrasive with me on the phone. This dealership is unprofessional, has terrible customer service, and I will never purchase from them again. I warn everyone I know to stay away from them.

I first contacted BMW of Sterling because of a new BMW 128i listed on their website. Once I determined I was interested in the BMW, I read through the various reviews regarding BMW of Sterling published on their website. A number of client advisors received very positive ratings; however, one in particular, Felix Bighem, stood out. Very positive ratings, very positive customer comments. I decided to ask for Mr Bighem on my initial call to the dealer. Felix was not immediately available; however, he returned my initial call promptly. Felix was extremely professional and courteous to me. I likely was pursuing one of the least expensive new BMWs for sale at BMW of Sterling; it didn't matter though ... Felix answered every question I had .. and I had a few questions for him ... and also took additional pictures of the interior as I requested, as well as verifying the condition of the 128i. Everything I asked, Felix responded. This was extremely helpful, as I was calling from 400 miles away.Once I decided to move ahead with my purchase, Felix held the 128i for a few days with a small deposit while I arranged my flight to DC. Felix offered to pick me up at Dulles ... he was right on time. Felix is quite a gentleman; very friendly, professional ... couldn't ask for a better client advisor. Very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the product. Once we arrived at the dealership, Felix took me inside to the service area, and introduced me to my new BMW. He gave me plenty of time to look it over ... it was the first time I had seen it.I have to give credit to the BMW of Sterling service / prep guys. The 128i was gorgeous ... absolutely spotless. Super presentation and work by the prep guys.Once that was completed, I met with one of BMW of Sterling's Finance Managers, Zafir Safi. Again, a very pleasant and professional experience. Zafir reviewed the various service option packages with me ... no pressure whatsoever to select any of them. We reviewed the numbers on the BMW ... the exact same numbers that Felix had provided me a few days' prior. Signed a few papers, and that was it....transaction completed. Again, a very positive and professional interaction with Zafir.Felix then walked me out to my new BMW ... it was now parked in front of the dealership under a canopy ... and walked through the notable features.All in all ... a tremendous experience. Extremely positive ... I would recommend working with both Felix and Zafir at BMW of Sterling. Can't say enough about the experience.

I had a dead battery on my car and the service department was wonderful. My husband called his salesman, then the service department. Upon BMW assist getting me a jump start, I was able to drive to the dealership. They were waiting for me and within 10 minutes, I dropped off my car and was in a loaner car on my way home. This was my first time since I just got my car, but I was treated with such friendly, caring service that I look forward to a long time relationship with them.


Apparently Dishonest Descriptions in Online Ads!

The Melvin on 12/27/2012

On multiple listings, dealer lists "Navigation System" as an option installed on CPO BMWs. However, there is no navigation system shown in the photos of the cars. When asked for a picture of the car and its navigation system, the dealer admitted that the car in fact does not have a navigation system. Once could be a oversight; multiple listings suggest dishonesty. DO NOT drive to the dealership without verifying that the car you want does in fact have all the listed options. In my mind, if a dealer is willing to deceive you in a simple listing, then that same dealer is very likely to try to deceive you in other areas of the transaction. Proceed with caution.

Stay away from this dealership's service department. I took my car in for an oil change and the replacement of an oil filter housing seal. It took an hour to get my loaner car. They couldn't complete the repair the same day even though I dropped the car off early in the morning.Two days later my car is spewing coolant everywhere while my wife was driving it. She was stranded. I learned a hose was not put on properly so I did that myself. When the car was overheating again I had it towed to the dealership.They didn't work on it for 4 days.Then they told me it would be another $600 to repair a hairline fracture in the overflow tank. Parts were included in the work that did not need to be, like a new radiator cap.I'm out $600 for work not needed that they caused.Find a good BMW mechanic elsewhere.

I am so furious with this dealership that it is difficult for me to put it in words.I have a 2011 mini cooper countryman that I bought in May of last year. At the time of purchase, the finance lady sold me a tire warranty based on the information that the car comes standard with pirelli run flat tires (the most worthless tire on the planet, in my opinion), and if I received a puncture or other damage on the tire, the warranty would be helpful as pirellis run about $700 a tire ($700 a tire? This is where the BS started). I agreed to the warranty as I drive an average of 120 miles per day and wanted to be sure such an expensive tire was covered. There was no caveats about tire wear or mileage limitations at the time of purchase.One year later, I find myself with one rear tire with a slow leak, the other rear tire with a puncture, and one front tire completely blown out. The dealership is refusing to cover these under warranty as apparently they are below the scanned tread level permitted by the warranty. Additionally, the dealership will only replace the tires with the Pirellis at $240 per tire excluding installation and alignment. They are refusing to replace the tires with any other less expensive tire as I then would not have a spare, and apparently they are concerned about liability should I be on the road and have a flat without a spare. This has been going on now for two weeks (the first five of which I could not get ahold of the service representative handling the vehicle, Sean Peace, as he was out on an emergency and apparently no one can pick up his clients). I still have no tires, no offer to replace the tires with a less expensive version, no apologies for the delay in response to my repeated phone calls- just threats that they have decided they will refund the tire warranty and tow the car to wherever I would like, leave it (undriveable) and get their loaner back. This has escalated up to the general manager, who likes the sound of his own voice and will not listen or compromise, to the franchise owner, Tom Moorehead, who is about to receive a letter from an attorney. This could have been resolved amiably but Mini of Sterling is antagonistic and deceitful and makes no attempt to service its clients.To top it off, Mini comes with a no cost maintenance program that I was unaware of, so I have been getting my oil changes locally instead of driving 90 miles to the dealership only to sit and wait a whole day while the oil is changed. Now I am told that this invalidates the warranty because they have not done the maintenance.As a final irritation, I left my PO Box key in the mini, never aware that it would take so long to get the car back, and have yet been able to get mini to fed ex it back to me, so I've been unable to check my mail.Steer WAY clear of this dealership. Mini is wonderful but mini of sterling is an abysmal failure.
