Used 2017 BMW X3 for Sale in Bethesda, MD

I am not really sure where to begin but I wanted to share my experience with other consumers so they know what to expect when purchasing a vehicle from Universal Auto Group. I guess I’ll start with how I came to know them. I was in the market for a Japanese built luxury vehicle and used multiple websites to look at dealer reviews first. As a member of USAA, I used their car buying service to accomplish this and narrowed down over 100 dealerships to 4 that I felt would be honest and treat me respectfully. As I did so, I noticed Universal Auto Group had 5 stars on every site I looked at and no negative reviews. At first, I was skeptical and thought they could not be from actual customers but after submitting an inquiry on a Mercedes, I realized that everything that was written about them was true. Aside from receiving a prompt response stating that they would honor the USAA pricing, they also offered to assist me with selecting a vehicle to fit my needs. As I stated, I was in the market for a Japanese luxury vehicle but one visit to their showroom convinced me that I needed to consider a Mercedes. All of their vehicles are pre-owned and some have a history of being involved in an incident but these are also priced accordingly. After test driving the vehicle I was most interested in, I left their showroom without because I wanted to do some independent research and ensure I was getting the very best deal for the money I was spending. That night, I located another Mercedes from another dealership and decided to evaluate their vehicle as well. It came from a Mercedes dealership but was not nearly as nice as the one at Universal Auto Group. Although it was the same model, it lacked package 1 and package 2 and was priced higher than the vehicle I drove. I was offered to take the vehicle for the day and did so. It rode differently in that the person that leased it did not take very good care of it. The vehicles at Universal Auto Group became the standard by which I measured all other vehicles against. I would evaluate if they were as good for the money I was spending. Finally, I decided to purchase the vehicle from UAG and contacted them to let them know. The entire staff at UAG is the absolute best and I am fortunate to have interacted with all of them. The father, Abby Sarraf, and son, Sean Sarraf, are true gentlemen in every sense of the word. They made sure that I did not feel pressured and let the cars sell themselves. On my test drive, every option was explained to me and even after I purchased the vehicle, Sean spent time explaining everything to my wife. This was the best car buying experience I have ever had and I can’t thank Sean enough for making it this way. He even offered to provide contacts for regular maintenance, repairs, parts, etc… at a discounted price because he felt it was an important part of establishing a customer relationship beyond the purchase. I would not only recommend them but would suggest that everyone that is in the market for a vehicle should visit them whether they are considering a Mercedes or not. Although they go above what is necessary to sell a vehicle, I truly appreciate the manner in which they treated us and it felt awesome to thank them by purchasing a car from them.

Nice vehicle, reliable car, good pickup, good milage, stylish,eye turner, very comfortable for long drive , easy manuevering, too many problems after 100k like any Europeancars. it's better than other BMW'S.

my experience at your dealership was EXCELLENT...because Cesar Cuyun service advisor told me what was going to happen, took care of all the details regarding the service visit and promptly notified when the work was completed. THANKS

Very well appointed and handles well. Beautiful interior with Mocha leather that I had been looking for. Heads up display is fantastic. Plenty of leg room in the back. VERY comfortable cabin with double moonroof. I have always wanted this car and it did not disappoint Went with certified pre owned for all the reason. Glad I went for X3 not X1 Happy!!

My son found a car for me on the Rockville BMW website. I called and talked to Kevin who was very helpful, fair and knowledable. My son and I drove from Richmond VA to test drive the car. I ended up buying it and Kevin worked with me to allow an independent mechanic to inspect the car before purchase. I was able to drive it home that day! James was also fantastic and made the process very easy. Kevin followed up that evening to make sure we got home okay. I LOVE my new car!! (Any chance I can get a BMW t-shirt size large for my son for helping me find the car and driving 4hrs RT?? And for filling out this survey a second time since the first one didn't go through? 😊)

Vehicle is everything we were looking for in SUV type vehicle. Perfect size for traveling and comfortable . This is the 4th Bmw we have owned and first time buying from this dealership.

This is my second vehicle purchased from Vroom in the last 12 months, and I can't imagine ever buying a used car from a brick-and-mortar dealership again. Vroom offers a terrific selection of late model used vehicles. The pictures really make it easy to know what the car looks like. I purchased a 2015 BMW 5-series, and the Vroom price compared to a similar make/model/mileage vehicle from CarMax was $3,000+ cheaper. I selected my vehicle over a few weeks of looking at photos. I filled out a credit application online, and they immediately called me to finalize the app, discuss rates and payments, and to get my $500 deposit. I received a loan package via FedEx 2 days later, signed all the paperwork, and sent it back in the pre-paid FedEx envelope they provided. About 3 days later, I started getting emails to schedule delivery. The process only took 9 business days from the moment I made the deposit to the moment I got my vehicle. The vehicle was clean, just as described, and runs great. Now I just need to get a state inspection and add this to my insurance policy, and the tags will be mailed to me in a few weeks. Thankfully, Vroom gives me a 60-day temp tag so there is ample time to receive the plates. This is the future of car-buying, and the 7-day money back guarantee makes it the perfect way to purchase a used vehicle.

Our previous SUV was a ’mid-sized’ Infiniti QX4 that lasted more than 300,000 miles, but when we went looking for a new car the category had changed and we ended up buying a ’compact SAV’ BMW X3. The X3 is the same exterior dimensions as the QX4 but does have a smaller cargo area due to the longer engine compartment. However performance easily matches the QX4 - ’pick-up’is much better and we get an avg of 10-mph better (29.0). The 2.0 turbo 4 provides the same HP and better torque than the QX4. Inside comfort is all German- nice, solid, and well designed as well as being very quiet.

I was well received by Jennifer, and she helped me throughout the whole service process. She has such an amazing personality, her smile was convincing to let me know I could trust her. She gave me an estimated time and my car was finished before the time. I was very satisfied, the techs that worked on my car should be highly rewarded. May Jennifer continue doing such an excellent job with the clients! Her beautiful smile and polite manner shall take her far! I love Koons toyota!

This car meets all my need and really safe when i am driving in snowing day! And people feel very stable in the back seats too.

What a great car buying experience. Please don't let the lot fool you. Walther H. runs a tight very professional team. And my salesman Zach was outstanding! We purchased a used 2014 LS 460; we honestly felt like we were getting a car from a family member. I will definitely recommend my friends to Walter and his team at the Merlex Auto Group.

The BMW X3 gives our family a nice SUV to get the 5 of us where we need to go. Primarily it’s my wife’s car and she likes that it is a family car, but also a performance SUV as well.

Give the top notch customer service of Kevin and JC, I can't see myself getting my car serviced by anyone else. Trust is so important in the service experience and I definitely have it with Passport.

This car is proving to be the appropriate vehicle for me. The navigational camera and driving aids as well as the ease and comfort of driving have increased my confidence on the road.

Easterns Automotive Group Alexandria is excellent. I live in Florida and after a month of looking for a 2015 Mercedes Benz ML 350 with all the options for my wife, I finally found one at Easterns Alexandria. On Tuesday night I called their headquaters to make sure the car was still available. On Wednesday morning I called the local dealership in Alexandria and spoke with Mirza. He was excellent. He helped me tremendously since I was a buyer from out of state on 3 major areas. (1) I wanted to pay a small deposit to secure and hold the vehicle until Saturday when I could get to Alexandria. Mirza ran around between his manager and the finance department and continually kept me updated via text and phone and I was able to pay the deposit over the phone and secured the vehicle. (2) I was already pre-approved by my local bank in Florida for the car loan. Mirza served as the liason between me and their finance department. I contacted my banker and she spoke directly with Mirza's team. We were able to reach an agreement about the finance procedure of how my Florida bank would release the funds on the loan to Easterns Automotive when I was able to get to Alexandria. (3) I had scheduled an appointment with a local Mercedes dealer to do a pre-purchase inspection of the car prior to my arrival. After I made the deposit, I asked Mirza to take the car to the MB dealer for the inspection in my absence. On Thursday night, Mirza dropped off the car and left it overnight at the MB dealer as we had arranged. By Friday the inspection was over. I paid the dealer over the phone and received the news that the car was in excellent condition. Mirza took the car back from the dealer on Friday. I arrived from Florida to Alexandria on Saturday with my wife and all the issues were already resolved with Mirza's help. We test-drove the car and then purchased the car. Everything was addressed prior to my arrival. Dan is a tough negotiator but a really good guy. He gave us a full tank of gas and we left for the long journey to Florida. Thank you Mirza for all your help. We love the car.

Our daughter was involved in a wreck that set off the air bags in her BMW X1. The BMW was totaled but its safety saved her life. We went shopping for a replacement and after test driving the Lexus, Toyota and Land Rover, we selected a certified pre-owned BMW. What a great choice! The vehicle looked, drove, and smelled new! Larger than the BMW X1, but still very easy to drive/park. We were amazed how quiet it was inside while driving. 22 MPG in the city and almost 30 MPG highway! The Heads-Up Display is our daughter's favorite feature, allowing her to keep her eyes on the road and all times to keep watch for crazy drivers! Mom and I sleep well at night.

I was looking for a 2-3 year old luxury car and spent many hour in the showrooms of Audi, BMW, Infinity etc .and if you are not there to buy a new car they really don't give you the time of day. At Easterns you are treated like you are their only customer and there is no hard sell. My salesperson, Lonnie, spent many hours with me finding the right car , researching all the online reviews/Carfax reports, financing options, explaining all of the features of the cars etc. and he was available 24/7 for me on his cell to answer any questions. No need to look further.

Met all needs, lots of room, safety always the priority,very quiet on the highway,worthy the money!!

My husband told me about Carvana from a commercial ad he heard/saw. I laughed about it and said 'yah right, there's gotta be a hitch somewhere'. A few weeks later, he brought up Carvana again....curious, I decided to check it out online. The key words there was 'check it out'. I ended up buying a vehicle a couple hours later. Yeup, it was just like that. No hassle, no hidden costs or agendas. So after reviewing everything on the site, I started looking at minivans....I started falling in love with minivans....I started buying minivans....all through carvana. Once I locked in the one I wanted, I went through the credit process, documentation process, and pick up date (I chose pick up - because at this point, I still felt a little 'leary' about the whole deal'. It was so simple, and so honest, and so real. Over the course of the next 24 hours, all my submitted documents were approved and we just had two days to go to pick up the new mininvan. When we got to the store, it's not like a dealership with a lot, but it had three beautiful, well lit, very clean, showroom like bays that your vehicle is sitting in for your to do a complete inspection of it. It was very classy. Please note, our particular location does not have the car vending machine just yet. After passing our over check, I hopped in the car and drove it 65 miles home. She ran like a charm and I knew I had 7 days to decide if I wanted to keep her not. At day 3, although I loved her, she didn't have all the bells and whistles I truly wanted so that evening, I was back on the Carvana site, shopping for a replacement minivan....it's so easy to do when it gives you results based on your financial settings....I found the new 'her' a few hours later. I ordered her up and made the quick call explaining I was swapping and chose to have the vehicle delivered instead of going there to save time. The whole swap process took 2 days...they pulled up right to my house with my next new minivan. In my eyes, she was perfect, but I found a flaw before she was even off the truck. There was a huge bolt in the back tire. I was so disappointed. But Carvana took care of that so amazingly over the top.....they still brought her off the truck so I can check out the interior, test drive it, etc. We found a few more things that we felt should be fixed...minor things. Carvana took note of the items, and took the vehicle back on the truck but promised me (because I really wanted her that day) they would bring her back with a new tire....they kept their promise, three hours later she was back with a brand new tire, not one, but TWO brand new back tires. And they put an extra Carvana cup in the car for me. They swapped the minivans and off the old one went and there I sat with the new one. Smile ear to ear. I worked with Carvana on 6 items that we believed needed repair before committing to keep the vehicle. Carvana went above and beyond. I got an estimate for the repairs at a local shop, Carvana approved it, and within a few weeks, all repairs were completed through Carvana and I have the perfect vehicle, no hassle, no hidden agendas. And every person I dealt with on the phone or in person were ABSOLUTELY AMAZING, FRIENDLY, HELPFUL, AND JUST THE BEST!! My Carvana experience was the absolute best. I will never go back to buying a car the old 'car dealership' way. And ironically, we had bought our other vehicle from a dealership just 3 months before being introduced to Carvana. I will give one warning about buying a vehicle through Carvana this way....it can be addicting..lol :-) Yes, I still shop Carvana cars every now and then....I don't even need a car, I just love seeing what Carvana has because it was sooo simple :-) Thank you Carvana for a trememdously wonderful experience.

This is one of the best SUV when it comes to advanced, reliability and perfect handling. The tires are the main concern because I they often run flat compare to most SUVS out there. I had to repair my tire multiple times compare to the Nissan SUV my dad owns in the same household. BMW's service doesn't cover but does offer for additional cost the tire services such as rotating or balancing which would improve most of their consumers experience with this tire issue. Otherwise the vehicle drives very smooth, very durable and comes with many cool features such as the head up display.

Buying a car is stressful even if you have a lot of experience. Historically, it has been time consuming, emotionally taxing and most of us go into a dealership with far less knowledge than we ought for a purchase of the magnitude of a car. Salespeople have (understandable) pressures to move inventory and even the most fair-minded is looking to get the highest price they can get away with. It is harrowing at best. With my experience with Carvana, all of these stresses were eliminated. I browsed inventory as widely or narrowly as I wanted, for as long as I needed. I could dictate pricing ranges that were suitable for me. The car I received was *exactly* the car I examined online, right down to some inconsequential bumper scuffs. Beyond this, and *absolutely unlike* any other online business, I could speak to a *real human being* within a few minutes of calling (I had six or seven conversations with Carvana agents over the 3 1/2 weeks from car selection to car receipt). They either had the answers at hand, or researched them and replied promptly with a follow up call. Delivery coordination and drop off (and test drive) were *painless no pressure* experiences???all preparatory contract paperwork was prepared in advance leaving only title transfer stuff to take care of. It took 45 minutes, tops. (I transacted entirely in cash, so I cannot speak to the process when there is financing.) Honestly, the biggest delay was on *my* end getting the insurance transferred (having to wait on hold with my insurance company for 15 minutes). The car was 100% was described???absolutely no surprises. The images on the web site for my car were not stock images. What I saw was what I got. Naturally, it was clean, filled up with a full tank, with new tires and the whole nine yards. Even got a ???free??? Carvana reusable coffee cup and key chain. Nice touch. The part that I found the most extraordinary was the 7-day money-back guarantee, which pretty much covers a change of mind unless you get into an accident or drive it a ton (over 400 miles, and even then, they???ll take it back after a modest per-mile-over-400 charge). All in all, I was dreading buying a car (and selling my used one) and Carvana made it pleasurable. I am absolutely recommending them to all of my friends and coworkers and I hope (as a relatively new company) they keep up the excellent work.

Great suv for comfort, fuel efficiency (28 MPG around town)and style. Love the heads-up display and park assist. Super quiet and well mannered. Great interior and cargo space.

Mr. David carter aka DC was awesome. He went above and beyond for me. Mr.DC is very knowledgeable about his job, honest, patient, and also a godly man. I really appreciate your service and will be sending referrals your way. When???s it???s time for me to buy again I will come see mr.DC Also I bought a Volkswagen Jetta 2016 and it was in my price range thanks again. I???m very grateful💯💪🏽

ThIs car is great for driving long distances, as well as around town. It handles well, and responds when you need it to. Clearly, still a driving machine!

I recently was a victim of car theft and needed a car in a hurry. The salesman, Jared, was very helpful in finding a vehicle that was both affordable and comfortable and had the features I needed. Ask for him if you come here 🤙🏾

In the past, when I've been ready for a new car, I always shopped for a different make and was never loyal to a particular manufacturer. This time around, I stayed with BMW and traded my sports wagon for an X3. The interior is luxurious, comfortable and the ride is quiet. Despite its size, it still drives like a BMW. Precise handling, no drag.

Quick oil changes, clean, next waiting area and someone always ask if everything is okay. The people at Jack Winegardner are a great group of people to deal with.

Love BMW. I've always owned them from my fist car at 22 years old. Solid. Reliable. Handles amazing. I feel really safe. Grabs the road.

The entire experience with this dealership from start to finish was pleasant, efficient, and fair. Although we worked most closely with Sajjad, the entire staff was friendly and welcoming. Sajjad (as well as 2 other staff members) went above and beyond to stay late and complete the purchase. Having done our research, with several other dealerships over the past month or so, we know we received a great price upfront that didn't require haggling. The 30 day warranty was an unexpected bonus and not something we had seen for most used cars. The dealership itself is clean and aesthetically pleasing, with most cars available to view indoors. Would highly recommend purchasing a car with Sajjad and his team at this location.

Extremely happy to find the 2017 I searched for that was within a local radius of 75 miles. I test drove the new 2018 BMW x3x and felt it was too big and more rugged.

Absolutely love this car and couldn't be happier. We feel safe and secure with the ability to have a little fun. All finishes and driver controls are top notch and you feel in control with the touch of your fingers. The ride is quiet and smooth and will throw you back in your seat in sport mode.

I went in looking for a car but it was sold. They do have a great selection but there wasn't anything I was looking for. I would recommend them as they have great inventory.

Nice, long learning curve when it comes to learn all the features. Need more time to see how reliable this vehicle is. The interior is very pleasant, the exterior looks and feels very cheap, what happen BMW?

Thumbs up to IVAN, ERIC, FRANK AND RYAN. Each one of you did a unique and great job, helping us through the process. There was no need to come home with bunch of papers, cus all documents were downloaded onto a flashdrive for us. Great technology and excellent deal! 👍

i love it works great! very convinent. great space for a small famliy. i would highly recommand this vichle to all my friends and family.

First BMW. Exactly what we wanted and great experience buying at this dealer. We love the sporty plus luxury feel. So far it is great and exceeding expectations.

One of my favorite vehicles of all time. Has 3 driving modes (eco, standard and sport). Power everything, technology abounds leather seats, awesome sound and tow package
