Terrible and dishonest marketing.

Terrible and dishonest marketing. Advertised price includes 4k tax rebates for teslas (yes i know this is common on places like FB market place). Its insanely annoying because most real dealerships dont do this so you have to read the description of every post now to find out what the "real" price is. Reality is their pricing is actually WORSE than most dealers, but they want to look like they are better by advertising lower. Dishonest on internet advertising will be dishonest in person.

Rude and condescending.

Rude and condescending. Did not answer my questions clearly, gave round about answers just to find out they were very misleading. I will not be coming back.

This dealership is doing fraudulent pricing.

This dealership is doing fraudulent pricing. Real prices are 4000 more. I thought the prices they show would be the real prices but it turns out they have taken out a tax credit that is not available for all buyers, advertising pricing that is not available for all buyers.

Although I was not able to come to a deal on a Tesla

Although I was not able to come to a deal on a Tesla Model X the gentleman I spoke with (Scott) was extremely helpful and very nice. He was respectful and straight up with me about everything. I would definitely deal with him if I end up buying a car there.

Very easy purchase experience.

Very easy purchase experience. Got us a better interest rate than our bank and we were in and out quickly. No pressure tactics used.

Friendly and helpful folks.

Friendly and helpful folks. Price was as advertised without haggling (and in my case, will priced), car I came in for was available for test drive at my appointment time, and paperwork for purchase was efficiently handled. Good experience at the sales level! As with all used cars I was a little concerned about the sales process, but in this case things were low pressure and seemingly free of sales gimmicks. Appreciated they didn't try to sell me 5 extras and tack on dealer fees. It all just kinda went to plan.

EV BUYERS, especially CLEAN CARS FOR ALL AWARD LETTER

EV BUYERS, especially CLEAN CARS FOR ALL AWARD LETTER RECIPIENTS, this place is your one stop shop for a great vehicle with a team who appreciates and genuinely wants to HELP YOU. We tried helping my father get his vehicle from other dealerships, and sadly, a lot of the dealerships on the BAAQM list are still stuck in the dark ages of auto sales, meaning they’re still giving car salespeople a bad name. NOT CENTURY AUTO SALES. You won’t regret your choice to buy from here AND they have an awesome selection of vehicles!

Vlad was great and helpful during my car purchase.

Vlad was great and helpful during my car purchase. He addressed any concerns I had and really helped me get the best deal for my car. This is a great dealership and did not hassle me with a ton of extra fees and add on packages. Though they have add ons available, I did not feel pressured to buy them which overall made my experience feel genuine. I have been referring others looking for a car to this dealership!

Very disrespectful and rushing.

Very disrespectful and rushing. I asked if the vehicle had any accidents and they said “Well if I knew everything I would be the richest man on earth.” Showed some dents and deep scratched around the car and they said it’s used car, deal with it. I didn’t want to keep going but I had droves 200 miles to get there. I asked if they could reduce price, and they said we aren’t a charity. Finally I agreed then then they said to leave and they didn’t have time for me. Very dissatisfied. They should have there sales license removed. PLEASE DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME AT THIS SHADY DEALERSHIP.
