Marshall Goldman Motor Sales (Ohio) review

Fantastic inventory and customer service… worked with the

Fantastic inventory and customer service… worked with the new Baltimore dealership - Aaron and staff are on point!

1996 BMW Z3 Roadster review

Great 23 yr old roadster, Know what you're buying.

Best bang for the buck - be ready to put some work & $ into it - suspension, exhaust, stereo etc. Mine now pushing @ 150 hp now. Opened up airbox and lost the cat. Put freeflow cat-back and new coil pack , plugs and wires. She handles great and runs strong. The old 1.9's are getting more respect these days and they are easy to work on to get right. This car turns heads and the guys running the big M's are always giving me crap but they can't lose me and most times I out-drive them anyway. Great sports car to run until you get something better or just to keep. I've had mine six years now and she runs and drives better than ever.

Great experience!

Great experience! TC & Brianna are the best. No pressure. No sales, just serving you while you shop.

1996 BMW Z3 Roadster review

A great little roadster.

Handle very well on curvy roads. Great braking power. Very comfortable on long trip. You have to learn how to drive it. It is not a roadster for dummies. Great over all car.

East Coast Auto Source review

Everyone at the dealership was great to deal with.

Everyone at the dealership was great to deal with. The technician who took me to look at the vehicle was very professional, knowledgeable, and courteous. He also gave me great advice on what to do with the vehicle in terms of restoration work that would save me money and time in the long run, while still making sure I would get the best work done on the vehicle. Great experience!

Jones Preowned Superstore review

Jones did everything from registration to tags and new

Jones did everything from registration to tags and new license plates. And I was able to drive home in my new vehicle that same-day. Salesman Wayne, took me over to Enterprise to return my rental at 4:30 before they closed. They towed my old car from its location to them next day. And Wayne even helped me clean out my belongings from the old car. Nothing was left to question. I Highly recommend Jones Bel Air Nissan Ask for Wayne, he will take care of you.

Laurel BMW of Westmont review

An Exceptional Experience at Laurel BMW!

An Exceptional Experience at Laurel BMW! I recently purchased my BMW M3 Competition from Laurel BMW, and I couldn’t be happier with the entire experience. From start to finish, the process was smooth, transparent, and genuinely enjoyable — which is something you don’t often say about buying a car! The entire team at Laurel BMW was professional, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond to make sure everything went perfectly. A special thank you to Vesna, who truly made the experience exceptional. She took incredible care of me, handled every detail with precision and patience, and made sure I felt confident and excited throughout the entire process. Her communication, attention to detail, and warm personality made all the difference. This was more than just a car purchase — it was a premium experience that matched the quality of the BMW brand itself. I highly recommend Laurel BMW to anyone looking for not only a great car, but a dealership that genuinely values its customers. Thank you again to Vesna and the entire Laurel BMW team — I absolutely love my new M3 Competition!
