I was shopping around and stopped at Esserman VW just to inquire about the CC. As soon as i met Tony my husband and i were very pleased with the approach. He is very friendly and courteous. Tony and his managers Derric and Glenn were very helpful in making the purchase of my new vehicle as smooth as possible therefore i would definitely recommend them and Esserman VW to anyone!

We are so happy that Tony was the right sales consultant for you and your husband. We do appreciate your recommendations. Remember that those referrals can get you $150 towards parts and service for your new car.

I was very pleased with the overall buying of my New VW. Tony was very helpful and made sure that I got the best price that they could offer. My only complaint would be the amount of time it took them to get to the paperwork after I agreed to buy the car. Took about 3 hours after I agreed to finally sign the papers. Tony C was great though not his fault.

Thank you for allowing us to earn your business! Our apologies for the length of time you may have spent in finance. You were here on a Saturday afternoon/Holiday Weekend and unfortunately we did have a lot of traffic that weekend due to the tremendous deals available, which may have caused a longer than usual wait time. Enjoy your vehicle!

TONY UNDERSTOOD WHAT WE WANTED. HE WAS VERY FREINDLY & PROFESSIONAL IN HIS APPROACH. WE WERE VERY PLEASED WITH THE SERVICE HE PROVIDED & WE FELT THAT WE GOT A GOOD DEAL. MY ONLY CONCERN WAS IN FINANCING -- WE WAITED FOR A LONG TIME FOR THE FINANCE PERSON TO BECOME AVAILABLE. THEN WE FELT RUSHED THROUGH THE SIGNING PROCESS & SLIGHTLY PRESSURED TO JUST SIGN THE DOCUMENTS. I ALSO DID NOT LIKE THAT THE CONTRACT WAS THE VERY LAST DOCUMENT GIVEN TO ME. I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE RECEIVED IT UPFRONT, BEFORE ANY OTHER DOCUMENT & TO HAVE BEEN GIVEN ADEQUATE TIME TO REVIEW IT. AS A RESULT I DID NOT REALIZE TILL AFTER I SIGNED THAT THERE WAS A TURN IN FEE OF $350 (WHICH WAS NOT MENTIONED AT ANY TIME DURING NEGOTIATIONS OR FINANCING). HOWEVER, THE SALES MANAGER DID AGREE TO PROVIDE FREE WINDOW TINTS TO PARTIALLY OFFSET THE FEE.

Thank you for your feedback regarding your purchase, the finance department and its process. Keep in mind that the $350 disposition fee is a non negotiable fee through NMAC and is not set by the dealer. However, should you choose to lease another vehicle with Nissan at the end of your current lease, NMAC will waive this fee. Safe driving!

I apologize.. I meant VCI not NMAC.

Martin was very courteous to me and helped me choose the best Volkswagen for my lifestyle and salary. He calmly and professionally explained the cars' pros and cons. He test drove the vehicle with me. The price we negotiated was fair and balanced. 10/10.

We're happy that Martin was able to earn your trust. We're also excited that you have decided to become a loyal customer as well.

Everyone at this dealership I dealt with were incredibly nice, informative and friendly. Ramon Fernandez the salesman was the kind of person that went the extra mile, he was very professional and his body language is of a very acertive person. Glenn did the job of manager super. He handled himself very professional as well. Maria Fitzpatrick was a trip, a real person and down to earth but incredibly nice. I would defenitely recommend this dealer to all I know that is interested in a VW.
