DO NOT BUY AN EXOTIC CAR FROM THIS DEALER.

DO NOT BUY AN EXOTIC CAR FROM THIS DEALER. In September of 2022 I was on vacation in Sarasota. I was on the lookout for used Lamborghini Gallardo's. I went to Scotti's to see a 2009 Gallardo and took a test drive. They informed me they had invested a lot into the car so the price was non negotiable. I ended up buying the car as it seamed fair at the time. No PPI was done as I was traveling home in 2 days. I trusted them and absolutely should not have. The car was very dirty when I arrived and they cleaned it up a bit before the test drive. I flew home and awaited delivery of my first ever exotic sports car. I was beyond excited for the enclosed transport to arrive. The car showed up dirtier than I remembered it. spider webs all over it, sand all in the engine bay, and just dirty all around. I imagined this differently considering the amount of money I spent on this car and the service level people expect when purchasing such a car. This car should not have left in any other condition but spotless inside and out. This was just the start of my disastrous experience. I then drove the car 2 miles to my storage garage. stopping for gas only. That evening I went over to learn about the car, setup my phone, etc. The next day all kinds of alarm codes were firing and the car was in limp mode. The continuously blamed the battery so I purchased a very expensive one and it didn't fix it. It was then sent to a local dealer to be looked at. Long story short the car was sent to Lambo Miami via the warranty company for a full inspection and repair. The condition of this car was terrible. The dealer supposedly put a lot of money into this car. After I list these items out you tell me if you believe that. 1. Broken driver side door handle, 2. Rear spoiler not attached and glued down on one side, 3. Engine bay covers deformed and cracked, 4. AC broken, 5. Engine bay dirty and covered in sand, 6. Front grill radiator inserts cracked. This dealer does the absolute bare minimum with any car they sell based on this experience. Not only that but they do not care once the sale is done. Quoting their sales manager Mark "If you are not satisfied, time to sell". The final icing on the cake was they couldn't even process the out of state paperwork correctly and I had to fix that mess too after going to my DMV and almost paying sales tax twice due to their mistake. DO NOT BUY AN EXOTIC CAR from them. The experience from start to finish was horrible looking back. Nothing was truthful and the handling of the delivery and paperwork was utterly embarrassing.

THE EXPERIENCE WITH THIS DEALER WAS EXCELLENT UP UNTIL

THE EXPERIENCE WITH THIS DEALER WAS EXCELLENT UP UNTIL THE PART WHERE I PAID THEM. ONCE THEY WERE PAID, THEY STOPPED RETURNING CALLS AND EMAILS.THEY ADVERTISED THE CAR WITH 9531 MILES ON IT AND IT WAS DELIVERED WITH OVER TEN THOUSAND MILES ON IT. IN ADDITION, WHEN THE CAR WAS DELIVERED TO ME IT ONLY HAD ONE KEY. NOW THIS IS NOT AN ISSUE WITH MOST CARS, BUT WITH ROLLS ROYCE IT'S A VERY EXPENSIVE ITEM. THEY NEVER DISCLOSED IT TO ME. WHEN THEY WERE CALLED TO ASK ABOUT THE KEYS, THEY SAID IT CAME THAT WAY. IF THAT'S THE CASE, THEY SHOULD HAVE GOT ONE BEFORE THEY DELIVERED IT. NOT SURPRISED ME AT THE DOOR. IT GOES WITHOUT SAYING THAT I WOULD NEVER GET ANOTHER CAR FROM THS DEALER AND WOULD TELL ANYONE DOING BUSINESS WITH THEM TO BE VERY CAREFUL.. I ONLY HAD CONVERSATIONS WITH 2 PEOPLE AND THEY WERE BOTH QUITE NICE. BUT I HAD TO CALL SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE I COULD GET THEM BACK ON THE PHONE. BUT IT'S MY UNDERSTANDING, THEY DO NOT WORK IN THE CAPACITY TO HAVE KNOWN WHAT THE DEALERSHIP WAS DOING TO ME.

Find another dealership

I bought a vehicle from this dealership and had a 1300 dollar bill within a week of purchase, which included having to have an entire windshield replaced, and an open safety recall corrected. The dealership was no help, and they accepted no responsibility which I find very unprofessional and do not appreciate being taken advantage of. Initially I thought highly of my experience which would have stayed that way if they would have offered some help with my issues.

Painless experience

I would recommend Scotti's auto they made my experience so painless. Jack took his time to go over the features in my car very helpful. Finances was also painless Steve took his time to explain everything that I was financing. Everything was so quick I went home in my new Mercedes Benz. Car is in excellent condition

Got a better car for a good price.

I needed a new car and have known of Scotti's reputation with years of "Best of" awards. I met John, my sales representative who exceeded my expectations. Friendly, informative, followed through but never any pressure. I ended up purchasing a 2013 Lexus CT200h and am loving it. The rest of the staff at Scotti's were equally flexible with time and got financing quickly. You should check them out.
