We purchased a car from Diablo Motors, all thanks to Greg! He was responsive online and answered every question that we had. He was very attentive and patient with us. We had to think about getting the right car for us. Greg never was pushy on making a sale. He was very understanding on our situation. First impressions of the car, I noticed the tints were old and bubbly from the photos online. Greg and his team gave the car a wash and redid the tints before our arrival. Some dealerships don't even do that. We were comparing it with BMW dealership in Santa Clara and it wasn't even ready to test drive after appointments were made. Diablo Motors were on top of it. Place was clean, organized, spacious, and had friendly staff and a very nice dog. They have extended warranties, and do maintenance from oil change to engine rebuilds. Again, he wasn't pushing the warranty or anything. After two visits, we walked out with a 2016 BMW with low miles, a good price, and now I know where to take my BMW to for servicing. read more

"Don't she purr, though." Under a backdrop of the Brooklyn Bridge and the Twin Towers, those were the words of a blind Lieutenant Colonel Frank Slade (played by Al Pacino) to Police Office Gore in "Scent of a Woman" after being pulled over while test driving a Ferrari in Brooklyn. While she's not a Ferrari, those are the very words that have come to mind more than once whilst driving my very pretty jet black 2011 BMW 328i I bought at Diablo Motors a few weeks back. Once again, I am driving a stick and attacking the hills of San Francisco with vigor on wheels! There's a knowledgeable and friendly team of folks there at Diablo Motors, though when I think of Diablo I really think of the owner, Greg. He and I--we got history. I've been buying cars through him since 1997, back when my daughters were 3 and 0. Now they are a little older and my (now) 19 year-old was in need of a car when I started looking around. Well, she still needs a car but Daddy's got a beemer. Greg's got a little less hair now and he's still the same easy-going guy I worked with through the years. I have never felt pressured at DM. Greg's cars are always impeccably clean and all the cars I have bought through him have been young lease-returns that still have factory warranty. Last night I stopped by to pick up my new license plates. While I subjected Greg pictures of my daughters, one of his guys went out in the rain and put the new plate on the very wet 328i. Thanks Greg. I need to save up again so I can get my daughter a car--then I'll be back. She's been driving that '95 Explorer I bought from you in '97 and well, it's seen better days. Don't want to leave anyone hanging. Here's the Al Pacino scene. Watch this then then go see Greg to and get your own purring machine. http://www.metacafe.com/watch/an-RcxDtJb22hbJmm/scent_of_a_woman_1992_pulled_over_by_cop/ Don't she purr, though. read more

Got a car a while back and the tranny went out within a few weeks. They didnt even offer to give a rental or any temporary car to use while i waited for ever for them to replace the transmission with a new one that i had to pay another 4 thousand dollars for myself. What turned out at first to be a great deal turned into a nightmare. read more

We found DIABLO Motors on Craigslist, it had the best prices! We purchased a 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee and it was a great deal! Greg walked us through every step and got us the best financing available! The Jeep is used and still in immaculate condition. We shopped around at other locations prior to working with Greg, and it seemed we only found dishonest sharks. I am so happy to have found a golden egg in a Dealership! Thank you! read more

Greg's impeccable customer service and attention to detail always leads to a quality vehicle at Diablo Motors. Greg's flexibility and no pressure sales along with his commitment to meet you anytime & provide the exact vehicle you are looking for. (& if there is an upgrade you desire, his service department can typically make it happen) Thanks Again Greg! read more

Wow. The people at Diablo motors are wonderful; they act unlike any other dealership I've been to in the past. I took my Audi A6 in for service after I tried to fix a small item I broke and thought it would be simple. They went out of their way to fix my car and return it to almost brand new condition. Not only did they fix what I asked them to fix, and thoroughly at that, they fixed some things I didn't even specify, such as my loose door handle. All I can say to the team there is thank you! You all didn't have to go through the trouble you did for my hack job of a self attempted repair. I highly recommend their service and sales departments. read more

I absolutely love my newly purchased, certified 535i!! I had researched so many BMWs and spoke to so many dealerships. Not only did Greg give me the best price, but the lowest interest rate AND the best trade in credit for my Corolla. The entire process was fast, easy and thorough! This is the 3rd car that my family has purchased from Greg at DM and we could not be happier! read more

Diablo motors is reliable and customer friendly. Good staff Jace and others. Greg is good and knowledgeable and their techs are good

Great service all around, before the purchase and after the purchase! Applied online, gave me my options then picked up car!

Jake Boothe greeted us as we walked up to DM. He was receptive, knowledgeable, and extremely helpful. He listened to what we were looking for and answered all of our questions without any rush or push. We found exactly what we were looking for and without a lot of effort we are now happy owners of a DM 4 series. Love my car - and the DM team for making this experience so easy. Thanks to Jake, Greg, Tux, and the entire DM team - if you want quality, ease of purchase, and great customer service - go say hi to Greg and Jake - and if you are lucky you will get to meet Tux. read more

What an excellent experience! We were given an extremely fair trade-in value on our Mini Cooper convertible and drove home in a gorgeous BMW 335i convertible. Greg was extremely fair in his dealings with us and very professional. We will definitely go back if we want another vehicle, and will be referring friends. read more

Diablo Motors - Love our new BMW 335i convertible! - Car Dealers Near Me - San Ramon, California

Be very careful about purchasing any automobile from this establishment. If you are not a wealthy person, with cash in hand, the owner Greg will not give you appropriate attention or provide you with the customer service you expect when purchasing a vehicle. While there are many glowing reviews for this place, keep in mind most of these people are local and are affluent. If expect a discount from this place, you can forget about that as well. I could go on an on about the manner in which I was treated this weekend attempting to purchase a vehicle, after I had obtained full financing to buy it. Instead of doing the right thing, the owner sold the car out from under my wife and I on a day (Sunday) when his business was supposed to be "closed"? Incredible! I warn each and every potential customer of clean used cars (he often gets clean cars) not to become the latest customer to be abused and discarded by this cretin of a businessman. You can not say you have not been warned! I mean really, who turns down payment in full for the asking price of a vehicle? Greg at Diablo Motors does. If he can provide his own financing giving him an additional percentage of the deal, or if someone comes in with cash on a day when the place is supposedly CLOSED! Shameful. Absolutely despicable. read more

I cannot speak highly enough of Greg and Diablo Motors. Two and half years ago I was looking to buy my first car (at age 36 and new to America (I'm British)) and was not enjoying the process of going to dealers and selecting a car, not knowing what I wanted at that point beyond a second hand 3-5 year old car. I found that I could not get a straight answer from anyone I met, everyone each trying to convince me that whatever they had was exactly what I needed. Greg was a breath of fresh air. He spent time to understand what I needed, rather than just try and sell me what was in his showroom. He ask me lots of questions to narrow down what I really needed and to identify the inevitable trade-offs. He then got very specific for the model I wanted (a Jeep Liberty) which years were good (and also any years of production to avoid and why - Greg loves cars and it shows; he Is quite the expert). At all times, Greg was honest and straight with me and also realistic about what I could and could not get for my money. Greg offers an auction service whereby you specify what you want and Greg finds it for you. For me, I knew thanks to Greg's help that what would most help my needs was a 3-5 year old Jeep LIberty, no more than 50k miles. And I wanted blue - which is not so common! But Greg found one for me and it is perfect. I also love that Greg and his team service and detail my car and help keep it in perfect shape. Before owning a car, I was worried about the upkeep, but Greg has made it super easy for me and I always know I can rely on him. Without a doubt, if you buy a car from Greg and Diablo Motors, you will be in great hands - honest, knowledgeable and always reliable. read more

I'd been in the market and searching for a car for a few months. Fortuitously I found a well priced 2015 VW Tiguan, newer than the other cars I'd been comparing and with more features. I saw the ad on THU evening, and Greg replied within the hour. FRI morning we had a brief chat when I learned that Greg had a rigid time constraint for the car I had interest in. My cousin and I went to Diablo Motors from Menlo Park, then Berkeley. Point is, this was geographically undesirable especially considering FRI traffic. Arriving to the Diablo, Greg was with a customer and Rahmin gave me the keys to test drive the VW. We came back, said we'd go to In-n-Out burger to think about it. Upon returning I wanted to trade in my BMW and Greg was amenable. This is a trustworthy and honest used car place. Over the past few months, I've seen the gamut of used car salesmen and Greg is the only one I would deal with again and send people to. Going forward, however inconvenient it may be for me to get from SF, I plan on buying future vehicles from Greg. I am so pleased with my purchase and how quickly and flexible he was. read more

I bought a 4 series from Greg at Diablo Motors and I have never experienced this level of 5 star customer service from purchasing a vehicle before. He was honest and straight with his answers and let me know what can work and not about applying for a loan, he will take care of all and get your prequalified, no time wasted. Within a couple days, I was driving away on an immaculate CPO BMW. Thank you Greg and you have here a customer for life. Will see you in a couple years! read more

Who likes car shopping. I see very few people who do. I went to Diablo motors after I had been searching for cars for a long long time. I was skeptical, I was concerned about being taken for a ride, I wasn't sure what I was getting myself into but I made it in. What a different experience. Greg was courteous, no pressure, explained things when I had questions, there was no rush to anything. I didn't buy the car during my first visit. We went back and one evening I decided to bite the bullet. I have to say my experience with Diablo has been the most incredible car buying experience. So many dealers and frankly companies can learn from their approach. The experience didn't end then. I found a few (small) issues and they promptly resolved them no questions asked. I even called to schedule a maintenance visit and asked how much it was and instead of quoting me a price a week later I got a certificate in the mail saying they were running a promotion that 1st year of maintenance was free (well I think it started after I bought) but they still gave it to me. When I buy my next car it will be at Diablo motors. Without any hesitation I recommend Diablo Motors. read more

If a low-price isn't your priority, and a peace of mind is, then give Diablo Motors a try. One thing I enjoyed about Greg is that he is extremely honest; you'll know what your buying without any hidden problems. However, expect to pay a premium used price without much room for negotiation like you would find elsewhere- such as Mission Blvd's dealers or elsewhere on Craigslist. Each time I've went to Diablo to investigate a Jeep, I usually find one of similar quality and condition for 30-35% less at other dealers- this includes negotiation and a full day of calling around and haggling. I think Greg's business is perfect for the Diablo Valley- most residents seeking a used car want in-and-out as quickly as possible, knowing they bought a car in great condition and one that was thoroughly inspected. Greg markets and sells quality, not quantity- which has the upside of you more likely getting a great car, but paying a higher price. Greg's game plan is making every vehicle look immaculate- steam cleaning the engine compartment, shampooing the carpet and upholstery, and waxing the exterior- surprisingly, most dealers just wash the car and vacuum the carpet (their focus on quantity). The dealership is also well maintained and clean. If you're going to buy a warranty, then shop the entire Bay Area for the best price, regardless of the dealership. If you're a great negotiator and haggler, or if you know how used car dealerships work, you may also want to look elsewhere. If you want a nice car fast, without a hassle and would like to avoid a warranty- all for a small premium- then meet with Greg. My advice for anyone seeking a used car: Wait until after Christmas, but before New Years Day (dealers want to unload their inventory at this time). In December after meeting with Greg, I found another dealer willing to sell me 2006 Jeep Grand Cherokee in great condition with 46k miles for $9,100 +tax/license, when it's value was $16,100!!! Shop around, and don't let sales people pressure you (Greg will not force or pressure you into anything, another plus). Negotiate over the phone, never in person. Figure your price with the dealer over the phone, and obtain financing through a third party, such as a bank or credit union- then you can go to the dealership with a check and a great interest rate. If possible, never trade in your car. Never buy a warranty at the dealership- search online. I personally recommend WarrantyDirect.com. read more

We bought a BMW with 1 key, the salesman Brad promised us a second key "on us"(the dealership). We followed up with Brad in 2 weeks and then he ordered the second key and informed me that the key has arrived. There was no mention of cost ever. Brad also promised us free detailing since the car was dusty when we bought it. When we went to pick up the keys Craig (the owner) said that Brad has quit and the key is $270. We mentioned repeatedly that the key was promised to us by your sales guy; otherwise we would have got it ourselves from the dealer. This was to no avail and we had to pay for something we were promised was included with the price of the car. He then said I will give you a free car wash (but not detailing) to " make it up"! The business practice of not keeping the word of the employees and blaming the customer for it is dishonest and unethical. I will not give business yo this dealership and not recommend it to anyone. There are several other businesses that buy cars from auction and resell it, Diablo Motors in not a distinguished dealership and should be avoided. read more

Best car buying experience ever. Greg is a great guy, I will never buy a car anywhere else again! I keep my cars for a long time, so I have not bought that many. But I now know the vast difference between buying from a dealership and buying from Diablo Motors. I stumbled onto Diablo Motors on accident on Craigslist. I just assumed it was your run of the mill dealership. You know, the kind where they don't know much about the cars, don't care about you and only want to suck the most money out of you as possible. I came to find that Diablo Motors is in fact one guy running a nice little car broker business. Greg is up front and knowledgeable about the cars he sells. I was interested in a Chevy Tahoe and it turns out Greg had just driven it on a 1500 mile trip to and from Idaho. So he was quite knowledgeable about the particular vehicle and offered any and all the information I cared to know about it. As others have said, the price is what it is. There is no haggling as there is at a traditional dealership. However, I found the price to be more than fair. Greg let me take the vehicle on a test drive myself. I told my wife and she said "He let you take it out by yourself?! Wow, there still are nice, trusting people out there." Overall experience was a no pressure sale. Just open, honest and straight-forward. I will come back for servicing my vehicles. When I am ready to buy again, this will be my first stop. read more

I hate car shopping. Don't get me wrong- I like nice cars but I just want one to appear in my driveway. I was referred by a friend to Greg Meier at Diablo who completely won my business with his knowledge and no nonsense approach. Made it so easy and seamless. He has beautiful vehicles and I love my new convertible BMW. Truly the best car buying experience I've ever had - I plan to buy another for my niece's graduation this June- and have it shipped to NY. Check him out- you won't be disappointed. read more

We bought an Acura MDX from Greg. Car had 100k miles but drove great. Days after having it the transmission went out ( a known problem with these cars as it is allwheel drive and trannys usually dont make it past 100k). We knew buying a used car would be a crap shoot and that we'd face various repairs eventually. It just bummed us out that we hit perhaps one of the most expensive repairs to be needed so soon. Greg too felt bad and wanted to make it right. We bought a new tranny from Acura which greg chipped in $1500 of the $3000 for the part. He also chipped in free labor to put it in. Anyone in the know knows this is about 10 hours labor involving special tools to support engine while tranny is lowered out/in from below. This is usually a $4000 job. And we will be the beneficiary of this investment for the next 100,000 miles. If this isnt going the distance for a customer i dont know what is. Honesty and doing the right thing is a pervasive quality at Diablo. Scott Wilmot, Orinda CA read more

I finally bought a car the right way! For years, I was a new car guy but I decided that it was time to try a "gently used" car. I had always wanted a 7 series BMW; Greg found exactly what I was looking for. Price was great, service top notch, and I am driving one of my dream cars for a fraction of the new price. I have a full warranty and they are always glad to see me for oil changes or maintenance. Why buy new??? Thank you Greg and staff! read more

We purchased a 2018 Jeep Wrangler about a month ago and the whole process was smooth and painless. We found the car on Craigslist and immediately got a response from Greg. We came in the following morning. I had my 2 little ones in tow and they had a corner for them to play. Greg's dog also kept them busy with multiple games of fetch. All the cars at the dealership were in impeccable condition including the one we purchased. Greg gave us the space to talk it over, look at the car, test drive, etc without being pushy. There was no doubt that we found the one and we were lucky to have purchased with Greg who is not only very responsive, but also very honest and personable. Highly recommend Diablo Motors for car purchase. read more

Scammers. The warranty they sell is a joke. No customer service. If anything do not buy from them! Try anyone else!

I recently made a purchase with them for a 2018 Lexus GX460. The cars and pricing they have speaks for themselves but Greg and Jake were both easy going, honest guys and that really made me feel comfortable as soon as I walked in. I found the car online, shot them an email and Greg replied really quick so that I could schedule time to see the vehicle within my busy schedule No pushy sales techniques, just real talk. I appreciated how they walked me through all the math during the closing so I knew there were no hidden costs. I live in Petaluma, but it was worth the drive. Thanks guys! read more

Greg is terrific. And so is the business that he runs. I've been looking for one of the rare BMW and Greg happened to have one on his lot. I emailed Greg about the vehicle and he responded immediately to my questions, not hesitating to answer anything candidly. After about a week of back and forth emails, I told Greg that I would like to see the vehicle however I would not be able to visit until late at night. Without hesitation, he said he would stay as long as he needed if I wanted to see the car. I came in late one night and he had it detailed and ready for me to test drive and to inspect the car. Greg was knowledgeable, especially with European models, and made the transaction easy for me. He didn't try to play any games like most dealerships, and at the end of the day, he was very honest and up front with everything. He genuinely cares about the customer and his cars. Knowing how he constructs his dealership business, I'm curious to try his service department. However I am certain that he treats this business the same way; Honest, dependable and fair. I couldn't be any happier with my new car, or any happier with the buying experience. I would be a repeat customer in the future. Updated: I have to give Diablo 5 stars for great customer service AFTER I bought the car. My mechanic found a faulty wheel on the car and Greg made it right. Thanks!! read more

Nice place, enjoyable experience, although, I did not purchace a car there, I would and I would reccomend! No preasure, nice inventory although they did not have what I was looking for, had they, I would have bought there! Nice job! Also, got a call on Sunday, after taking a test drive on Sat., offereng to meet me there on Sunday, when they are normaly closed! Nice touch! read more

It was a very good experience to buy my first Porsche from Greg, the owner of Diablo Motors. He was the first one replying to me when I started searching a Boxster over Internet one week ago (I love emailing much more than making phone calls). We went back and forth several times over email, talking about the price, additional fees, and why I should buy an S not Base based on his own expierence. Finally we met on Saturday to see the car. He trusted me and let me drive the Boxster alone, didn't push me or tried hard to sell it. The Boxster was awesome but I couldn't decide to buy as I was wondering what are the differences from a Base version. I left for another test drive and few hours later decided to buy from Greg. Greg was nicely to wait for me until 9pm, we went through all the paperwork quickly and smoothly, then I drove my Boxster home. I highly recommend DIablo Motors and Greg to anyone wants to buy a used car, no pressure, no tricks, only a good service and a reasonable price. read more

I bought a car from Greg @ Diablo Motors three years ago. I thought it was a very fair deal and we enjoyed the car problem-free for three years. When it came time to sell, I took the car straight back to Greg, without hesitation, to sell for me. After spending a week sprucing up the car, he sold it the very first weekend on the lot for a great price. Very smooth transactions, beginning to end. read more

Just purchased a 328i from Diablo Motors and we are so happy with the purchase! Unbeatable price and the process was smooth and easy. Greg (the dealership owner) is definitely one of the best car salesman out there. He really knows all there is to BMWs and everything else about cars! A really nice guy who tells you all the details about the vehicle you're looking at. No tricks or deception or gray lines at all. If there is a slight modification to the listing, you're gonna know it. The car we bought has some issues with the tires but we left the door with 4 brand new tires without any additional cost thanks to Greg and his team. You will get a good deal and a good car from this dealership! read more

Me and my fiance went into Diablo Motors because we needed a bigger car to accommodate our growing family! I spotted a beautiful Dodge Durango and had to have it. I hate car shopping because it takes forever, but we were in and out in about an hour! Greg was fast, friendly, and efficient! I would definitely recommend Diablo Motors to anyone who wants great service!!! read more

I bought my first car with Greg and it was such a great experience. I didn't have to worry about haggling and he was extremely patient with me. I love my new car and would definitely buy from him again! read more

Diablo Motors is a really great dealership! Greg was very honest and upfront about everything; his prices are more than fair, and he made the buying process very painless. I emailed Greg about a listing on Saturday, and came in the next day to check it out. The entire process -- test-drive, trade-in, and purchase -- took about two hours. Diablo Motors has a stellar reputation, and it's easy to see why. I'm very happy to have found this place. read more

Diablo Motors sold a car for me on consignment recently, and I'm totally delighted with the result. Owner Greg Meier knows more about cars than anyone I ever met. He is very honest and trustworthy, too, so you can count on him to do what he says he will do. He explained in detail beforehand the costs of repairing and detailing my car in order to get it in top condition before advertising it for sale, and I was not required to pay for any of this up front. Diablo Motors took care of everything, including the DMV paperwork and smog test. Their service and sales teams are both excellent at what they do. In the end, I cleared more from the sale than I would have if I had sold it at the Blue Book Private Party price, and without all the hassle and risks involved in such private party transactions. I couldn't be happier. read more

I've been a customer at Diablo Motors for over a decade. My family and I have bought several high quality previously owned cars. We've never been disappointed. Greg asks a fair price for good quality. I've also used the service department with high satisfaction. They keep excellent records of previous service, which gives reassurance when service is recommended. I highly recommend both sales and service. read more

Thank you, Greg, for guiding me through the purchase of my new BMW. I would recommend Diablo Motors to all my friends. #I love my new ride read more
