Rarely if ever do I write an on-line review, but a few

weeks ago I encountered a company that deserves much praise, namely Newbold BMW of O’Fallon, IL, near St. Louis. For some time, I had been in the market for a late model Mazda MX-5 (or Miata), and after contacting several dealerships, I found that Newbold had one in my price range. My first contact with Newbold was on line, and I asked for an “out-the-door” price for the car. Almost immediately I received a reply from salesman Joseph Krick which was both responsive to my query as well as honest. By honest, I mean there were no “add-ons” that raised the price beyond the advertised price, which is unfortunately the practice of several dealers I spoke to. Mr. Krick’s e-mail was polite and not at all pushy, Perhaps a week later, I contacted Mr. Krick with my “asks,” namely (1) to deliver the car to my house (about two hours north of them), (2) to have the car inspected (at my cost, of course), and (3) to take the price down a little. Again, to my surprise, Mr. Krick answered ALL my “asks” to my complete satisfaction. The car passed inspection with nothing noted as problematic, and when we agreed on a price, Mr. Krick personally had the car delivered to my home by a dealership detail man. Another happy surprise was seeing that Mr. Krick had not just ordered but even installed my new license plates on the car. Mr. Krick told me he started out in car sales with Rolls Royce, and he certainly made me feel like royalty even with my relatively small purchase. This is a commendation both to Mr. Krick as a human being and professional, and also to Newbold for keeping him on staff. If I ever go looking again for a car, I will certainly contact Mr. Krick and Newbold before I make a purchase. Their honesty, sense of fair play, and willingness to accommodate is way beyond the norm and, in my mind, sets them apart. Accordingly, I take this opportunity to publicly thank them and to commend them to anyone in the market.

Dealership is great. The car sucked. Never had so

many problems with a car before (including used ones). The steering was a problem from day one. All the unwanted and useless accessories that made driving more difficult. Was not told that I bought a sports car. Bought a new 2021 330i. Biggest mistake I ever made (car wise). Will never own another BMW. Kept it for only 30 days. Couldn't take is any longer. Was very very lucky to be able to get my old car back. Which is far far superior to the BMW.

I had never really considered buying a BMW, until I drove

one and wow, there is a difference! Joe Krick was a no pressure salesman and easy to deal. He listened to what I wanted in financing terms and worked to make it happen. I'm a first time BMW owner and love my car!

After purchasing my first BMW, I met with Carlos to learn

about all the technology. He provided the best explanation of the features. After driving it about a month, I needed to figure out a few more things and met with Carlos again. His demeanor is very calm and relaxed. He is perfectly suited for giving instruction/training. He really seems to know the cars inside and out! Carlos also helped me with floor matt considerations and window tinting.

Braden came in on his day off to show me the vehicle. All

the staff was laid back and helpful. Braden made me an expresso and we discussed the issues. They even made sure the vehicle I drove it was safe until I could return to pick it up. While this service level of service may be standard here, I had a much less positive experience a few months back at another dealership in the St. Louis area that I will not throw under the bus. The car I purchased was exactly as it had been described and they got me a fantastic interest rate. Thanks Eric S

First Class Service all around

This is the second car we have purchased from Newbold in the past 4 months. Braden Dyer was so easy to work with and extremely knowledgeable in all of the cars we looked at. Braden made the experience of buying a new car exciting and fun like it should be. Finance breezed through the paperwork. Carlos takes his time and points out every option and feature of the car and has no problems answering any questions we had on either purchase. This is the best dealership we have ever dealt with.

Excellent in all respects!

The service department has been taking care of my Z3 roadster for several years now. Always fixed right the first time at a reasonable price. The parts department has always been helpful and friendly. When it came time to purchase a new car, I met with Chris & Braden to discuss ordering a 2020 X3 xDrive30e. We quickly came to terms and ordered the car. 4 weeks later, the X3 was ready for delivery. Carlos provided excellent training during the delivery process. One of the most important aspects of this dealership to me is that they are a BMW dealership and BMW only. The employees are not only employees, like me, they are BMW enthusiasts. Every department of this dealership has, and continues, to earn my trust.

Braden at Newbold BMW consistently exceeded my

expectations and provided a seamless purchase experience for my X5. I feel his service was all the more impressive as I purchased this vehicle from out of state and did not get to physically see or drive the car beforehand. Any of the worries I had associated with the remote purchase were quickly alleviated by Braden via frequent and detailed communications and quick response and resolution to any questions or concerns I had. I was also impressed with the financial services provided by Andy. He was very quick and thorough with his offerings and services. Overall, I had an excellent experience with Newbold BMW and would highly recommend them to anyone.

Newbold made buying a BMW easy and hassle free.

I had a great experience at Newbold BMW and with client advisor, Braden Dyer. Braden took care of any questions about the vehicle and even had the two colors I was between side by side so I could do a comparison. Steve Stiegman made the whole process hassle free. Andy DeVine made the final steps in finance department very smooth and easy. Carlos Holmes was great and very patient with the vehicle overview.

Awesome to deal with!!

I called about a car I was interested in from the website and set up an appointment to come and see it the next day. They had it pulled up and ready for me when I got there. Worked with Mark Swarm on the test drive and the deal - he was fantastic!!! Met with Andy on the rest of the paperwork and we were driving away in our new BMW in less than two (2) hours. I would highly recommend buying a car from Newbold BMW.

Great experience with no pressure!

Mark Swarm came out immediately to greet us and walked us through the lot on a chilly November day. We indicated up front we were just looking to compare BMW, Mercedes and Infinity. Mark was willing to take time with us and explain the options with the BMW X3. After a test drive and Mark explaining all the features, we decided on the spot to buy the X3. I truly appreciated the dealership not putting pressure on us and the ease of how they operate. Carlos Holmes was fantastic as he walked us through all the details with regard to operating the navigation system and features of the car. Andy DeVine was very efficient and had all the paperwork ready when we came to finalize the purchase. This is our second purchase with Newbold and will not be our last.

Don't go to St. Louis and get lost in the crowd.

Called Newbold and spoke with Chris Duncan about a couple of the vehicles that were on their webpage. Chris took his time and explained all of the vehicles that I had questions about. I was able to set up a personal appointment and Chris had my vehicle pulled up and ready for me to go on a test drive. Chris' knowledge of the vehicle was impressive and was he answered all the questions that I had prepped for him after reading reviews about the vehicle. Chris didn't try and up sell me and advocated for me with the used car sales manager. Chris was able to get me in and out of the dealership with in the hour. The longest part of the delivery was when the BMW Genius, Carlos Holmes, sat in the vehicle and instructed me about the vehicles options. The personal interaction was great. This is the best dealership I have worked with regarding customer service. What a great group of professionals.

It’s worth the drive from St. Louis to purchase a BMW

from Newbold BMW in O’Fallon, IL. Braden was my salesman. He did an excellent job pointing out the features of my new 4-door 3Series. Patrick Newbold, the sales manager, put together the numbers for me and made the deal. He is extremely knowledgeable about the entire BMW line. He is a remarkable talented young man who is personable and very helpful. Andy handled the paperwork very efficiently and made the process seamlessly smooth. Carlos Holmes delivered the car and patiently helped me understand its many technical features. He made it all make sense. I am enjoying my new 3Series and wouldn’t buy a BMW from anyone else! Highly recommend Newbold BMW. The family owned store treats all their customers like family.

It is with great pleasure that I write this review about my car purchasing experience at Newbold BMW. My sales agent was Chris Duncan. I found Chris to be professional, courteous, and extremely knowledgeable. He answered all of the millions of questions I had about the vehicle. Purchasing a car can be a daunting task but with Chris I felt no sales pressure. It was by far the best experience I’ve ever had with any dealership.

The Newbold Experience is the BEST Experience!

This is our second BMW purchase with Newbold. The customer service experience is out of this world. Each Newbold employee truly makes you feel like family. My husband and I now refuse to go to any other dealership because we don't receive the high caliber of attention and care anywhere else (we made the mistake of going to Autohaus once and that was a nightmare for a variety of reasons). Braden is fantastic and completely down to earth. On top of that, he stays connected with his customers - even years after your purchase. The staff provide such individual care to each customer; as I said, you can't go anywhere else. Thank you, Braden, for helping us to pick out this amazing 2019 x3 m40i!!!! We LOVE IT!!!

Design Flaw

I just bought a used BMW 335i xdrive 2015 with 40,000 miles with a "rebuilt" title due to water damage. Fact: At 40,000 miles there is a vibration in certain RPM and MPH combinations. Fact: I took it to Newbold and was told the transmission was leaking through the casing, not a gasket but right through the metal casing of the body of the transmission. Fact: Sales representative said he had heard of this problem before and admitted it was a flaw in the design and/or production of the transmission. The metal was porous. Fact: The repair cost would be $11,600 and that did not even guarantee to fix the problem of the vibration and that may require $2200 drive shaft. Fact: Due to policy they would not honor any warranty because of the (unrelated to the transmission) previous damage. Fact: Then to add salt to the wound the sales rep. basically blamed me for buying it from an individual instead of them. Opinion: It doesn't matter who I bought it from, it was a BMW, not a Gremlin. If it has a design flaw that is not my fault, that is BMWs fault. For them to hide behind a warranty policy instead of owning their mistake in design or production is a simply unethical and pernicious. (Or to use a modern colloquialism, Chicken S**t.) That car sold for $55,000 and yet was un-drivable at only 40,000 miles.
