    THANK YOU BOB SMITH BMW!!!!!!!! YOU WERE PIVOTAL IN HELPING ME SEE CLEARLY THAT LEXUS (TOYOTA) IS A MUCH BETTER BRAND!!! IM SO GRATEFUL THAT IN THE 2 Cars that I bought from you you were significant in helping me see the light of how trashy BMWs are after they go over 50,000 miles. I've had 3 BMWs over the last 9 years and 2 I bought from Bob smith. My last car I bought in 2023 was a 530i whose transmission literally fell out while driving at 60,000 miles, just 8 months after I bought it. Had to wait 3 weeks for a part and the GM wouldn't give me a loaner. They only gave me $150 for wasted time. And that was like pulling teeth Multiple other issues as well: power steering gone, hand brake on 320i broken, throttle body issues etc SO THANK YOU FOR HELPING ME TO SEE THE LIGHT ON BMWs. They are made to break down. Lexus (Toyota) are built to last! And look at the reply from the guy below. Clearly did not read the review I wrote. And who's John? lol Anyway, thank you Bob Smith in helping me see how LEXUS is so much better

    Ray's communication is one of the main reasons I return. He keeps me updated throughout the entire service process, checks in before moving forward with anything, and always answers my questions thoroughly. It's refreshing to work with someone who is both knowledgeable and patient. Each time I've brought my car in, the service has been efficient, and my vehicle has been returned in excellent condition. It's clear that Ray pays close attention to detail and truly cares about the customer experience. His commitment to making sure everything is done right really stands out. Ray is reliable and professional. If you're bringing your BMW in for service, I highly recommend asking for him. He's definitely my go-to advisor, and I fully trust him with my vehicle. I appreciate everyone that worked on my car.

    Martik was wonderful to work with! We had an appointment and a wish list. It all went very smooth. Working with one person instead of being shuttled to different departments was convenient too. We will be back for future purchases for sure.

    Bob Smith BMW is not the closest dealership to our home but we decided to follow our sales person, Martik Gharibian, when he moved. He gave us such great service on our previous leases and we trusted that he would look after us. Everyone was very friendly and helpful at Bob Smith. I do like their new 'One' program where you work with your sales person from start to finish. It is a much more pleasant and less pushy experience. Martik exceeded our expectations here and really showed that he wanted to help us get into our new cars with little stress. There is also a small cafe for you to purchase food so that you don't start getting hangry. In general, it did not feel like a stuffy dealership. Austin helped go through the set up for both vehicles and made the whole process so seamless. The tech aspects of the car can be glitchy but he answered all of our questions and was very patient. We will definitely work with Martik again. We have known him for three years now and he always responds to our text messages quickly. He truly believes in customer service and will try to help whenever he can.

    Bought my car about 3-4 months ago, all I can say is that I love the car and the experience was memorable! The staff and my dealer, Tameem, made the purchase easy for me and I can definitely say this is a go-to spot for any future purchases. I wish the location was closer as I would definitely visit it often for any questions but I would recommend this spot for anyone in the market for a BMW!

    paint peeling after 1 month of ownership

    I am extremely disappointed that Bob Smith BMW failed to disclose that the used vehicle I purchased had a repainted front bumper. I purchased the car on January 23, 2026, and after just one rainstorm, the paint is already peeling. That is unacceptable and indicates poor prior repair work. Your dealership had the opportunity to disclose that the front bumper had been repainted, and you did not. That is a clear failure to disclose material information that would have affected my purchasing decision. If you stand behind your vehicles and value your customers, I expect you to repair and properly repaint the bumper at your expense. This is a straightforward solution to a problem that could have been avoided with simple transparency at the time of sale. I have already filed a complaint with the State of California outlining this issue. However, I am still giving your dealership the opportunity to resolve this matter directly and professionally. All that was required was disclosure. That did not happen. Now I expect the issue to be corrected. I will continue to pursue this matter until the bumper is properly repaired. The responsibility here is clear Sent to the State for review: I am filing a formal complaint against Bob Smith BMW regarding a vehicle purchase made on January 23, 2026. On that date, I purchased a 2022 Subaru from the dealership. At no point during the sales process was I informed that the front bumper and passenger door had previously been repainted or refurbished. Within one month of purchase, the paint on the front bumper began peeling, revealing what appears to be prior repair work. Had I been informed that these panels had been repainted, I would have reconsidered purchasing the vehicle or negotiated differently. The failure to disclose prior bodywork deprived me of the opportunity to make an informed decision as a consumer. I have contacted the dealership and requested that they correct the issue. As of this filing, I have received no response. Selling a vehicle with undisclosed prior repainting or body repairs is misleading and unacceptable. Given that the defect surfaced within one month of purchase, I believe the dealership bears responsibility for correcting it. I am requesting that the appropriate state agency investigate this matter and require the dealership to either: Properly repaint and repair the front bumper at no cost to me. I am seeking a fair resolution and accountability for the dealership's failure to disclose material information at the time of sale.

    We were in a few days ago and had the best experience with Hovik. Very friendly, professional and knowledgeable person. He provided us superior customer service!!! We have been coming to Bob Smith BMW Calabasas for many years. The staff here is wonderful and the service is always exceptional! Big thanks again to Hovik and his team!

    I want to begin this review by stating that I've leased and purchased multiple vehicles from this dealership over the years and everyone I've worked with has been fantastic. This review was not due to a specific individual. This review is due to Bob Smith BMWs use of CARFAX as their source of truth. In 2017 I purchased a CPO 2014 BMW from this dealership. At the time of purchase a CARFAX was provided by the dealership (see attached photos) showing the car had not been in any accidents in the last three years and had a clean title. Wonderful, lets move forward with the sale, all was well. Fast forward to my recent trade in of the CPO 2014 BMW and purchase of a CPO 2022 BMW. During the inspection of my old vehicle they suddenly found issues with the paint. Why was this not discovered during their CPO process? They then provided an updated CARFAX showing the car was indeed in an accident before my purchase in 2017. Now, before the dealership responds and says its out of their hands due to the CARFAX not being updated, they refused to adjust the price of the trade in or drop the price of the new purchase to compensate. They basically told me to eat a dick, just not in those words. This dealership not only overcharged me for my previous vehicle, they also devalued my trade in. They essentially stole thousands of dollars from me. Moral of the story here is do NOT buy CPOs from this dealership. They're not certified (eg, paint detection detailed above), and their use of CARFAX as a source of truth is equivalent to dogshit.

First off, Cadillac of Calabasas, thank you for not outsourcing your service dept customer service to another state, it was so nice to speak to an actual live person to make my appt. And to let the person know exactly what I need. Second, you have the BEST Service Director on your team. I've known Carmen since 2009 when I used to go to Cadillac of Thousand Oaks for my Yukon's, Escalade's and now Vistiq. Carmen took care of me and my cars. To know that she is at Calabasas, all it well and perfect!! I will be notifying many of my friends and families with their precious Cadillac's to go to Cadillac of Calabasas. I recently wrote a scathing review for Cadillac of Thousand Oaks and I will not recommend that service department to my worst enemy! Cadillac of Calabasas will treat you the way you deserve as a Cadillac owner. Thank you again, Cadillac of Calabasas and especially to Carmen. She took care of me as always.

    I had a very disappointing experience with this dealership…read more I am currently 8 months pregnant, and when I first visited the dealership, I found the car I wanted to purchase. After making my decision, I contacted Alex, the sales representative, and promptly provided all the required documents. My only request was that the process not take an unnecessarily long time because of my pregnancy. Alex then transferred me to Maria, and unfortunately My experience changed completely. From the beginning, she spoke to me in a disrespectful and condescending manner. At one point, she even told me that I probably didn't understand things because of "cultural and language differences." I found that comment extremely offensive and inappropriate. No customer should ever be made to feel judged or stereotyped because of their background or language. I decided that Im not comfortable doing business with a dealership that made me feel discriminated against, so I chose to purchase the same vehicle elsewhere. I hope the dealership takes this feedback seriously and ensures that every customer is treated with professionalism, respect, and dignity.

From the moment I walked in, the entire process was relaxed, professional, and completely pressure-free. I knew I wanted a fully loaded Q5, and Eric quickly found exactly what I was looking for. I was undecided on the exterior color and whether I preferred the Sportback, so he took the time to walk the lot with me, comparing the different options side by side until I was confident in my decision. That extra effort made a huge difference. Even though the dealership was busy, Eric and the team kept me informed throughout the process and regularly checked in with updates, so I always knew what was happening. What really set Eric apart was what happened after the sale. Instead of simply handing me the keys, he spent a significant amount of time going through the vehicle's many features, helping me customize the settings for the best driving experience, and connecting everything to the myAudi app. Modern vehicles have an incredible amount of technology, and it can be overwhelming to configure everything correctly. Eric made the process easy by tailoring the initial setup to what he thought would be the best starting point, while explaining how I could personalize things further as I became more familiar with the car. Eric is knowledgeable, detail-oriented, patient, and genuinely invested in making sure you leave feeling comfortable and excited about your new vehicle. If you're shopping for an Audi, I would absolutely recommend asking for Eric. He made what can often be a stressful experience enjoyable from start to finish.

    Absolutely. Since this is a public review, it's best to stick to things you personally experienced…read moreand avoid stating anything you can't verify. Here's a strong but factual review: I was disappointed with my experience at Audi Calabasas. The dealership has no problem mailing me upgrade offers and encouraging me to trade in my vehicle, but when I actually reached out about the offer, the customer service was completely different. I spoke with Kevin regarding the upgrade letter I received. During our initial conversation, he told me he was going to lunch and would call me back. That call never came. I was simply trying to see if they could get my payment close to what I currently pay, but I felt like I was brushed off instead of being helped. I also spoke with Martin, who was dismissive, hung up on me, and wouldn't answer my questions about the promotion they had sent me. It left me feeling like they were only interested in getting me through the door, not actually assisting a loyal Audi customer. If you're going to send customers personalized upgrade offers, at least be willing to explain them and treat people with respect when they call. I expected much better customer service from a luxury dealership.

    Based on good reviews and pleasant conversations with Domenic, I purchased a 1981 Fiat Spider 2000…read moreTurbo from Calabasas Luxury Motorcars sight unseen except for pictures. Domenic said that both he and his mechanic had driven the car and that everything was going okay with the car. When the car arrived, it was a different story. Please see the following. Hello Domenic, I finally picked up the car from the shop on June 17th. It took some time for the shop to have a trusted vendor fabricate a stainless steel header to fit the engine and the turbo. There are no original exhaust manifolds available for a turbo Spider since the company that modified the car in 1981 (Legend Industries) has been out of business for quite a while. There were only about 700 Spiders that got the Legend Turbo modification and not many of them are around any more, so parts for the turbo are non-existent. The header itself was $1,300.00. Along with other ancillary parts and labor, the total cost for that was $2,692.77. Attached are a couple of photos showing the cracked manifold. Another attached photo shows the split heater hose. When I first ran the car up to operating temperature, the coolant was spraying from this hose and there was so much steam coming from under the hood, I at first thought the car was overheating. Fortunately, it was not and the steam was from the coolant spraying on the hot engine. That repair with parts and labor was $139.59. The rear brake calipers were incorrect. The anti rattle springs were incorrectly installed. Parts and labor to replace the calipers was $1,014.71. It was quite evident that when the ignition key was on (whether the car was started or not) the fuel pump was constantly running. Parts and labor to replace the fuel pump relay and repair the wiring totaled $424.17. There were several other issues that needed attention. I understand that it is a 40 year old car and I would expect to find some issues. It was disappointing however that, for instance, you didn't let me know that the radio and speakers were not operable. No big deal. The total charge for parts and labor for the other issues was $1,837.00 which included the stereo, some badging, A/C service, coolant sensor, door guides, windshield washer nozzles and washer hose, and inoperative fog lamp switch. These are issues that might be expected to arise in an older car. $3,847.07 was for issues that you would have easily been aware of if anyone had just started the car and not even driven it. These issues were immediately evident as soon as the car came off the transporter. The failure of the emergency brake was noticed as soon as it came down the ramp and the noise from the engine was so loud that it was clearly evident that the exhaust manifold was cracked. Following is one of our communications: Ed thank you for your response and for the Drivers license photo it's our pleasure to work with you all clients are important to us and we do appreciate your business I'll have our technician go over the vehicle tomorrow also i will send you additional photos Regards Domenic On Wed, Jan 6, 2021 at 6:53 PM holdened@gmail.com wrote: Hi Domenic, Please see the attached. Please let me know if there are any issues you would want to know about if you were the purchaser. I fully understand that a 40 year old car would not be like new from the factory but I would rather not be surprised. You indicated that you had driven the car yourself and that your service technician had gone over the car and that "everything's going okay with the car".

I never got that information as well. You have said that "all clients are important to us". I hope that is true.

From the moment we connected with Danny, he was professional, transparent, and incredibly responsive. He took the time to answer every question we had, walked us through all of the numbers clearly, and made sure we understood every part of the deal. There was zero pressure, which is rare in car sales, and instead it felt like we had someone genuinely advocating for us to get the best possible deal. What really stood out was Danny's communication and follow-through. Whether it was sending over pricing breakdowns, explaining lease options, or helping us compare trims and payment structures, he stayed on top of everything and made the process smooth and stress-free. He was patient while we evaluated different scenarios and never made us feel rushed. Thanks to Danny, we drove away in a new Bronco Sport, and we couldn't be happier with both the vehicle and the overall experience.

    Very disappointed with my experience…read more I brought my car in for a recall, an oil change, and an electrical issue that was causing the vehicle to go into battery safe mode. The advisor who initially helped me was very nice and recommended additional service since I was approaching 60,000 miles. I specifically asked about the cost and was told around $500-$600. The written estimate showed $528. When I came to pick up the car, the bill was suddenly over $900. The original advisor had already left, and the person at the counter seemed uninterested in helping. When I questioned the charges, I was told the estimate "didn't include parts." He wasn't joking. On top of that, the electrical issue I originally came in for was never addressed. I was told the battery was fine, and the guy at the counter had no idea what I was talking about. He explained that electrical problems are handled by another department and not by maintenance :-) They even got my name wrong. I ended up paying $844, my issue remains unresolved, but hey, they washed the car ! Poor communication, unexpected charges, and unresolved issues are not what I expect from a dealership service department. Lesson learned -- I won't be back.
