Avoid. My experience was terrible at BMW Rockville. 2 months ago we ordered
a BMW from this dealership. At the time the sales person was Alexander and
we agreed upon a price with the general sales manager Nicholas. When they
took the deposit I sent the credit card via text message to the sales
person. I stated if you are going to authorize $1000 you agree on 585 a
month and he replied with yes. The card was char... view moreged $1000. Everything
seemed good to go and we were just waiting for the car to arrive (new
model). 2 months after ordering the car (yesterday) I call to check the
status, I find out Alexander the original sales person is no longer working
at the dealership anymore. I call Nicholas (the general sales manager) and
I ask if what we agreed upon when we ordered the car did not change and his
word at the time were "do not worry the deal is good to go and you have a
new sales person". I spoke with the new sales person and he also confirmed
the deal is good to go once the car gets to the dealership. We got rid of
our current car based on the fact that we had a deal with this dealership
(so we were without a car). The car arrived yesterday, so I go to the
dealership to make sure everything is ready to go and this is when
everything goes down the hill. Nicholas the general sales manager comes to
the desk and says the payment is 639 a month when we agreed on 585 when we
ordered the car! He gave a bunch of "reasons" on why it`s 639 when we
agreed on 585 two months ago. He claimed it`s because of "additional fees".
Even though it was not what we agreed upon, I was okay with the new fees
but I requested to take a look at the details. When he showed me the
details, we calculated it together and it came out to be at $598, not
$639!!! So then he claimed it`s because of the credit score despite
agreeing on the terms 2 months ago. At this point I started to feel like he
was trying to get more money by taking advantage of the the fact that we
were without a car and that we like this specific model, and his reasons
were obviously not legitimate. He was backing off the deal, so I have to
admit I started to become disrespectful (put yourself in my position, how
do you expect me to be polite when you`re simply lying). He even tried to
make me feel like he is doing me a favor buy not charging a processing fee
of $400 like how dealerships do in Virginia. Well it`s the law in Maryland
you can not charge more than $200.00. It`s the LAW so he is not doing me a
favor (ridiculous). So then despite all that, I told him okay fine if you
claim it`s the credit then we can switch it to another family member`s
credit, he rudely responded that it doesn`t matter and that the payment
will still be as it is and that we can get our money back if we don`t want
the car (after waiting for the car for 2 months). At this point I decided I
don`t want the car anymore and I found a much better deal without going
through a struggle like I did with this man. Nicholas (General sales
manager) did not honor the agreement we had, he kept saying he never
discussed the payment when I numerous times spoke to him about it (my
mistake for not recording the conversation). The salesman was nice,
however, Nicholas is not a man of his word. He is a liar! Caught him lie
multiple times! He could have told us all that during the 2 months we
waited for the car!!! (I guess he expected us to be okay with the fact that
he raised the payment from $585 to $639!). Yes I was disrespectful at the
end, but again, how can you blame me after all he did? He is a very sneaky
person. He wasted my whole day in addition to the fact that he backed off
the deal after waiting for 2 months for the car to arrive from Germany. He
is a person who likes to take advantage of people`s situations. I will
report him to BMW of North America and BMW in Germany. I don`t want anyone
else to go through what I went through with this person. Awful experience.
