  • What a great experience

    5 out of 5 starsby 1SOPLEASED on 03/14/2016

    I searched for the BMW I was looking for on line, the search directed me to Select Auto Imports, I provided contact information and Marlon Balanos responded by phone, we chatted a number of times to negotiate the deal, I traveled approximately 150 miles to deliver my trade in vehicle and to pick up the vehicle from Select Auto, I knew who Marlon was when I pulled onto the lot, the smile was never ending, we test drove the vehicle, he was knowledgeable about the vehicle and the conversation flowed, within 2 hours from my arrival we were shaking hands and I was traveling back home in my new BMW. All of the personnel at Select Auto were very kind, Marlon was exceptional !!! If in the market to make a future auto purchase I would definitely contact Marlon. I have mentioned to my family, friends and acquaintances the great service provided and the wonderful selection of automobiles at Select Auto Imports. I highly recommended to them if in the market for a vehicle definitely go with Marlon/Select Auto Imports.

  • Outstanding Experience

    My wife and I visited Select Auto Imports interested in a plug-in hybrid vehicle. After test driving two of them, our Sales representative Ali asked all of the right questions and we decided to purchase a gas/hybrid BMW. Ali knew everything about the vehicle and answered any/all questions. He was also very knowledgeable about the other vehicles we test drove as well but most definitely he KNEW BMW! Robert, Raymond, and Mary Beth all helped us feel very comfortable which is difficult considering the stress in purchasing a vehicle. Mike the owner was super as well in assisting with the bottom line. The ONLY thing I could have suggested was perhaps a refreshment a bit earlier in the process as we had spent several hours test driving vehicles and asking questions but we did wind up with some cappuccino at the end of the process...so really can't complain. We definitely would recommend Select Auto Imports and we most likely be purchasing our next vehicle here.

  • Best Luxury Car Buying Experience

    5 out of 5 starsby C300TwoML350 on 03/08/2016

    My first impression entering Select Auto Imports was a warm welcome and a since of professionalism. Raymond Webb is one of the best sales consultants I have ever had to assist me with car buying. Mr. Webb was very focused on what features I needed in the vehicle and making sure I was satisfied. From start to finish Mr. Webb made my car search, selection and purchase the most incredible experience. Mr. Webb was very knowledgeable about the vehicle technical options and features and was willing to go above and beyond helping me make the right selection. Select Auto Imports does everything right. I even got better financing than my credit union. I would say it was a blessing to buy a luxury car from Select Auto Imports and having Raymond Webb as a sales consultant was heaven sent. Bottom line he is truly there for you!

  • Great Buying Experience!

    5 out of 5 starsby ToddFromMD on 07/31/2015

    I have purchased many high-end vehicles over the past few years and was really impressed with this dealership. I was greeted immediately and the buying process was very smooth. I was also surprised at the large selection of vehicles available. Hassan Bouyboud was my Sales Consultant. He did not rush my test drive, went over the vehicles in detail, and he was able to answer all of my questions without having to check with anyone else. Their Finance Director, Deborah Debarr made the paperwork process very quick (and enjoyable)! Overall, I was very impressed with how this dealership conducts business. Everyone at the dealership was extremely friendly. I would definitely recommend Hassan Bouyboud to anyone looking for a knowledgeable person to help them buy a high-end vehicle!

  • Another Great Buying Experience at Select Auto Imports

    5 out of 5 starsby rjkcas on 07/19/2015

    We just purchased our fifth top quality luxury vehicle from Select Auto. The sales experience with Eliseo Rivera was the same as the last four; professional, relaxed and enjoyable. Like every sales representative we've worked with over the years, Eliseo was courteous, extremely knowledgeable and very professional. Zero pressure since Select vehicles are of the highest quality and essentially sell themselves, with some of the best pricing anywhere; we will keep returning. Ron & Chris K.
  • Outstanding customer service

    Just bought my wife a beautiful 2013 MERCEDES CLS 550 in honor of 30 years married and Select Auto helped make it happen. Special thanks to my sales rep Naser...my man, you hooked me up!
  • Great car buying experience

    5 out of 5 starsby GaSticks on 06/18/2015

    Mr. Hassan Bouyboud made my car shopping experience a positive one. I told him I wanted a ML and he focused on that...he listens. I visited a few Mercedes dealerships in the area and I felt like I was being "pushed" to get a vehicle even if it wasn't what I wanted. Mr. Hassan focus was on what I wanted. He showed me the inventory and I made a selection. We had good conversations also and that helped to relax a me considering car shopping can create a little stress. I would like to thank Mr. Hassan and Select Auto for making my car shopping experience a positive one. Respectfully, Noel

  • You Gotta try this place! Fred is magnificant!

    5 out of 5 starsby clay47 on 06/08/2015

    I was thinking about purchasing an vehicle and just browsing around to different site when I spotted this dealership (Select Auto) that I pass each day on my way to work. Something caught my interest and I set up a time to come visit. This was a Sunday morning by the way. When I arrived this guy Fred greeted me with the most humble friendly welcome that just took me off my feet! It was truly a wonderful car buying experience that I've never ever experienced! Kudos to Fred and team!
  • Best Dealership Award

    5 out of 5 starsby 2010BENZ on 05/27/2015

    Hi! My name is Lori. Last weekend, my husband and I had the great pleasure of purchasing a S550 Benz from Select. First, allow me to say it was a holiday weekend. We have gone to several lots in the DC/Metro area as well as around our home (we live 4 hours away in Danville, VA) only to NEVER have any dealership be as professional, courteous and knowledgeable about their very FINE vehicles. Fred, was the ABSOLUTE best salesperson I think we have ever had the pleasure of meeting. He was thorough, considerate, concise, funny and made us feel very much at ease. We had NO plans of buying a vehicle, we were just browsing. We knew what we wanted but didnt feel quite ready. That's where Robert came in. He immediately, without pushing, gave us specific details we needed to close the deal. He had great knowledge and offered doable suggestions. They made us feel like we were part of the family. Debbie, in the loan department got us a great deal. She was efficient and completed the process rather timely. Brian, Sonia and the rest of the staff were friendly, offered their assistance and a great atmosphere.

    5 out of 5 starsby bijonesbj on 04/28/2015

    I had a wonderful professional experience with Select Auto. They were very courteous and enthusiastic about selling me a car without feeling as if I were being rushed into a decision. I am a repeat customer. I have purchased 2 Mercedes from Select Auto and I am very pleased. I highly recommend Select Auto to anyone looking to buy a luxury car.
  • Great buying experience

    5 out of 5 starsby tater27 on 04/27/2015

    My wife and I dropped in to look at a Porsche and were not sure that we would make a purchase decision that day. Our salesperson, Eliseo Rivera, was patient and not at all pushy. He was able to answer our questions and made the buying process a very good experience. Everyone of their employees were very professional and friendly. I would recommend anyone considering buying a car to visit Select Auto Imports .

    Yamil, Robert, Mike, and Debby are all super courteous, efficient and respectful. I have been happy with the car I purchased there in 2014 so returned. I was happy to see the same people who helped me before so you are dealing with a stable, reliable team.

    I just purchased a 2014 E Class 250 and love it. The total experience took me 2 hours and I left feeling great. This is my 2nd car purchase and will be looking forward to my next car from this deal. Mike the owner personally came out and helped me with my purchase. The sales person was very helpful. The car was the clean and ready to test drive. This dealer has the best used cars in town. Barry C
  • A first class buying experience (with one caveat)

    5 out of 5 starsby hanklevine on 04/15/2015

    We found Select Auto Imports through the internet -- they had the car we wanted (a low mileage Mercedes Benz C300) in the colors we wanted at an attractive price. I was a little nervous going to a firm that isn't an MB dealership. Indeed, I'd never bought a car from anyone but a franchised dealership. I needn't have worried. Naser -- and everyone else we dealt with at SAI -- was professional, knowledgeable, and straight. The price was right. The paperwork was handled quickly, courteously and flawlessly. We were presented with upgrade options -- Lojack, an extended warranty -- but there was no pressure to buy them, which was unexpected and very pleasant. All in all, it was a smooth experience. My only caveat concerns the so-called “processing fee”. As we all know from dealing with airlines, banks, and phone companies, the easiest way to inflate prices without seeming to do so is by loading on extra fees/surcharges for checked bags, overdrafts, “property tax recovery”, etc. In the retail auto industry this takes the form of a processing fee, which in the DC area is usually $300. At Select Auto Imports it is $600, which erodes (but does not eliminate) the dealer’s otherwise excellent value proposition. I can't complain too loudly because I didn't push back very hard on this, but others coming to the dealership should be aware of it.
