As someone who has been a car dealer for close to 30 years, I can tell you the EAG team does it the right way. I have done business with them and purchased vehicles for my personal collection. Their cars are top notch, turn key and the process is trouble free. You can buy a car from them sight unseen with absolutely no concerns.

Report
EAG provided a special buying experience and phenomenal customer service. I purchased a 2003 M5 from EAG in May 2021. The buying process was straightforward and transparent. The team at EAG kept me informed while the vehicle was prepped for pick-up. When I arrived in Ohio, the team greeted me and gave me a tour of their facilities. I was able to meet the team who worked on my car. It truly was a unique and unforgettable experience. Unfortunately, I recently lost my vehicle.
It was deemed a total loss after an individual reversed on the freeway and smashed into my M5. I reached out to Blaire for assistance with my insurance dispute. She provided me with pics, comps, and an appraiser within minutes. The team at EAG are professionals who take pride in their work and treat their customers like family. I plan on purchasing another vehicle from them in the future and recommend them to anybody interested in purchasing an ///M vehicle.

First time dealing with EAG and I'm beyond impressed. Blair and Evan went above and beyond to help me with some questions I had and they provided me with some great peace of mind moving forward. I wouldn't hesitate to put my trust in them to take care of things correctly. Thanks again EAG!
