I had been looking for a clean low mileage E38 Bmw 740i M Sport for awhile. Most of them have well over 100,000 miles and I was getting to the point of maybe going for one with high mileage. So one day I did a search and a Black/Tan M Sport with 41k miles popped up so I checked it out. It had just been listed and there werent any photos. It was in Charleston SC and I live in San Diego,Ca. I looked at the dealers online reviews and decided to make a move on it. I sent an email and pretty quickly got a response back from Andy Fallon at Carcoast. He said that they had just gotten the car and already had quite a bit of interest in it. So after some back and forth I decided to take a shot at it since Andy seemed so honest and was Johnny on the spot in returning calls ,etc. Some photos were sent and we made a deal which required me to wire a large sum of money and hope that the car would get to me on a truck. As it turned out everything was above board and the car showed up as scheduled and undamaged. Andy was a true pleasure to deal with and stayed on the job until some title issues were worked out on their end and I got the car registered on my end..No Small Feat..As to the car it wasnt exactly as I had hoped for since the low mileage was more due to the car just sitting around and not owned by some Bmw Freak who spent his weekends polishing it and driving it to church on Sunday. Turns out that a woman owned the car and must have not used it much and really didnt do much maintenance. I have had to replace many rubber and plastic parts which were deteriorated from age but the saving grace is that the car is in excellent structural and mechanical condition, with a very straight body though there are some nicks ,etc in the paint. Overall I am quite satisfied with the deal and have a car that has a lot of life left in it and is one of the last true Bmws before they became excessively computerized and politically correct..It is an excellent mannered car and a hoot to drive.. Thanks Andy for all the Effort and Honesty in making this deal work. Lloyd

My wife found a really nice 04 Toyota Sequoia on Car Coasts website, so she called for more information and got in touch with Ricky. She wanted to see a car fax before we went to look at it, so Ricky very quickly had that info sent to her via phone. My wife told me we had to go look at this Sequoia, we had looked at so many others and werent pleased with the price or the miles were too high. We both fell in love with it, there was a minor issue with the mirror control button, but we sat down with Panama and discussed this, he said they had already ordered that part and would be fixing it before we picked it up. Panama worked out a very reasonable price that we couldnt refuse! The whole process was quick and easy, no hassle. Ricky and Panama are very professional, and we would recommend them to anyone. Our bank also says that they are a good dealership to deal with, they have never had any issues with them. We have had our Sequoia now for almost a month and have had no issues with it, this was a great buy! Thank you Panama and Ricky!

Contacted them over a month ago on a very particular vehicle. A 2003 Mercedes S600 for my limousine business. As soon as I told them I was not a cash buyer, didnt have a bank draft, and lived out of state I never heard from them again. I was a qualified buyer and agreed on a price. I asked for additional photos and confirmation of certain listed features; they never replied. They also had all of my contact information, too. Most dealers would jump on any opportunity to assist a prospective buyer. Because this was such a rare vehicle, there are only about 5 in the region of th US where I live. I ended up purchasing from a Georgia dealer. The one CarCoast had, however was the exact color and mileage I was looking for so I was very interested. I had to settle for another color combination because CarCoast obviously wasnt interested in doing business with me. I do not recommend this dealership.

Used Car Salesman. We are used to this title having a negative connotation. Andy turned that idea on its head. My experience was incredible. I dont often write reviews. But when I do, it is because someone went above and beyond. Even after my purchase, Andy continues to make sure Im taken care of. He even buffed out light scratches in the car at no charge just to make sure I was satisfied. Our conversation while signing the paperwork was about life, not the transaction. While Ive spent less than an hour with him total, I feel like Ive gained a friend. Ive already referred someone to him. And Ill buy my next BMW from him. I was actually shopping the new i3 at the dealership and decided to go used with Andy instead. Im glad I did. -Natasha (using boyfriends google account because Im more of an Apple girl.)

I bought a Volvo S60 a few weeks ago from Car Coast and its already become one of the most enjoyable cars Ive ever owned or driven. The cars in great shape mechanically and looks beautiful both inside and out. Actually, the entire buying process was surprisingly pleasant. Ricky was attentive, helpful, honest and fair. There was no pressure or pushiness and that means a lot to me. Its obvious he takes pride in the vehicles that are sold there since all of the cars on the lot were clean and seemed very well maintained. I would definitely purchase another car from Ricky in the future and will recommend him to friends as well. Car Coast is just a great place if youre looking to buy a gently used, European import.

Eventually, I came to terms that I needed a new car. I visited several car dealerships in the Charleston area and finally found a place that felt like home. I never have been comfortable with car salesman until I came to Car Coast. Ricky took the time to talk and find out what car was best for me. I wanted a car with low miles, great condition, smooth looking, for a great price. I was surprised at the vast inventory and varieties that I could choose from. I gladly chose a BMW Z4! It has been a year and it still drives like new. I could not be happier with my purchase. Now I live in Georgia and when it comes time to find my wife a car, Car Coast in Charleston, SC is the only place well go. ASK FOR RICKY.

We live in Florida and found our mercedes online. Contacted carcoast we were very pleased with the proffesional fast helpful service they provided. We were able to quickly come to a agreement on price and had the car delivered sight unseen to orlando FL. The car arrived as promised on time and in great condition as promised. Car coast followed up to insure we were happy and made sure all the title work was handled promptly. I cant say enough on how pleased we were with the service. Naturaly buying a car sight unseen is nevre racking however I would recommend this company to anyone who is looking for a great car and great service. Coodos to to car coast!!!! Five star all the way........
