This is my second time working with Sam at Autopia. I donāt know what better testimonial there is than that. As a repeat customer 3 years later, Sam helped me order a custom BMW i4 and was exceedingly communicative and responsive. He was transparent about every detail and the entire deal came to a close exactly as described. I would recommend him to anyone!
Sam and the crew are great! Ordered a custom i4 and just received it yesterday. The whole process was very smooth. Very responsive and straightforward on the deal. Iād definitely recommend them!
Sam is hands down one of the best in business, and Iām so glad to have gotten to know him through my journey of getting an i4.
I found the dealers in the Bay Area really crappy (make you wait, run 913293 times to their manager to get you BS quotes, and among other gimmicks, they are arrogant in general).
Enter Sam - The Legend who has simplified this entire process. Not only is he knowledgeable and gets the best rates for you, he really puts a lot of effort into building trust and relationships with his clients. (Cause thereās no way Iād be making an account to post a review for just anybody lol)
For me, Sam went beyond and worked hard to get my car delivered on time. He also had nice connections with insurance and logistics who helped me bag better quotes in a very short time.
Overall - highly recommend Sam, thanks for everything!
Strongly recommend Sam for anyone interested in a car from the various brands he works with. Buying a BMW i4 from Sam was the easiest car purchasing experience Iāve ever had.
Transparent and fair pricing, happy to go back and forth on options/questions, and provided realistic timelines. Good, fast communicator; always available.
He even worked with me when I had to delay delivery due to travel, never a single issue with Sam!
I will never go to a physical dealer again while Sam is in the business.
I had the pleasure of working with Chris on working a great deal on an i4. Very prompt responses and was he was able to answer any questions that I had from seeing which cars were in stock and then ultimately deciding on a custom order. It was a very painless process and couldnāt be more happy with the car. Great communication and all the timelines I was given were spot on.
Itās very clear they have this whole process down as it was easily the most simple and time efficient process Iāve experienced when getting a new car. I had also worked with Sam for a brief period as well and the same goes for him, very easy to work with and great communication. I highly recommend Autopia if you want the best deal and a very painless process. They go above and beyond and you can tell that they have a true passion for this industry!
I was in the market for an X3 M. I messaged 5 or 6 different brokers and a handful of dealers as well. Sam was the most responsive out of everyone and also was offering the best discount off of MSRP. He quickly scoured inventory on the west coast to find the particular color combo what I was looking for. We couldnāt end up finding anything available, so Sam put in a custom order for me and offered the same discount and numbers as I would have gotten if I went with something readily available. 6 weeks later I had my new Carbon Black Metallic on Adelaide grey X3 M.
To top it all off, Sam threw in BMW Ultimate Care+ at no additional charge as a nice surprise.
Iāve had a lot of experience talking to different dealers and brokers throughout the years. Sam exceeded my expectations in every way. 10/10 would buy from again.
Sam is the best. This is my first time leasing a car, Sam has been very helpful, answering my various newbie questions promptly. I asked around with different dealers and brokers, negotiated back and forth. Then I went to Sam, the deal beated all others, without needing to waste any time. Easy, efficient, and and best. Thanks Sam!
I had the pleasure of working with Sam for my recent lease and I couldnāt be more pleased with the experience. For those of you who have never worked with a broker before, you couldnāt be in better hands. Key experiences that I appreciated that I think you will, too.
communication - always quick to respond
transparency - if you have a question, heāll tell you the answer, no wondering if something was left out or ambiguous
patient - heās probably answered the same questions over and over, every day, but he respects that you havenāt asked it, so heāll take the time to explain to you
In my case, I was looking for something that I could get into relatively quickly and was open about options and color. He was able to match me up with something that was inbound in less than a month. Heās got his finger on the pulse on the Bay Area market, so if youāre looking for a car, he can help you find it.
In a role where customer satisfaction will drive referrals and repeat business, I think itās safe to say heās got it mastered. Iām happy to refer friends and family to him if they have simliar needs and Iām happy to recommend Leasehackr members to give him a shout, too. You wonāt be disappointed!
Another 5 star review for Sam at Autopia. This is the 3rd time we worked with Sam and, just like before, it was a perfect experience.
We just leased a 2023 BMW X3. Sam found us the exact specs we were looking for and for a much lower price that we could ever get at the dealership.
Sam was super responsive, answered all our questions and walked us through every step of the process. He even arranged for the car to be delivered to our home.
Paperwork took literally 5 minutes and all $ numbers matched to the penny what was pre-agreed.
What can I say about Sam other than the fact that he is the absolute best! I made it as difficult for him as possible and every step of the way he was polite, professional, and extremely understanding.
He started off with getting me an allocation for the new M2 before release, with the lowest price Iāve seen in both Nor-Cal and So-Cal. When I ended up changing my mind a month later and wanted to cancel my order, instead of being annoyed he was excited for me instead(because of the other car I bought)!
We were able to work out another deal where he ordered my wife a custom 330 xdrive, and even helped arrange shipping to my place! He was extremely responsive every step of the way and made my life so much easier as I was on constant business travel.
Definitely didnāt hurt he was the best in prices, availability, and flexibility when I was calling around other brokers as well!
This is my 4th BMW lease so far and hands down he has been the most helpful and genuine guy Iāve ever worked with. Could not recommend another broker more than Sam and Autopia!
Sam truly made the car buying experience fantastic. I was looking for an allocation for an M3, and my local dealer had a waitlist of over 40 people! I noticed Sam had an allocation available from a dealer that would accept out of state deals, and immediately called him and we began the process of building the car.
From submitting the build, all the way until the car was delivered, Sam helped with every aspect, and had a response for every single one of my questions at any time of the day. He gave me updates through every step of the way, and it felt like I had someone else eagerly waiting for the car to deliver with me. When the car finally arrived to the dealer, the paperwork was seamless. Sam also suggested options to help ship my car from the dealer in California to my home in Florida. When the car finally arrived, I couldnāt be happier with how it came out. The whole process was even better than I couldāve imagined!
After dealing with Sam, I will never go back to a regular dealer for car shopping. I absolutely recommend Sam and Autopia to anybody who needs help finding a car!
Sam is amazing! This was our first BMW (2023 i4) and he made the process a piece of cake. We visited a dealer for a test drive and it was a typical experience. I found Sam through LH and texted him. Within a couple of hours that same day (a Saturday night), he had already placed our custom order and everything was in motion. And it was at a price that no one could touch. The car quickly went in production, was shipped to CA, and then he handled getting it across the country to the east coast.
He was in contact every step of the way and was responsive no matter time or day. We have another lease that ends at the end of 2024 and I would never use anyone but Sam moving forward.
I have never used a broker before and at the start I was extremely skeptical. Deal seemed too good to be true! I talked to Sam and looked at all his reviews, which put me at ease. He was there every step of the way to answer any question I had! The process was easy and everything Sam said would happen did! Got my car delivered to my door and I couldnāt be more happy with my car! Best decision I every made and will not be buying another car without asking Sam first!
Ordered a BMW i4 e35 with Sam with a pretty good deal. He is very responsive which is quite important if you order a car online. He is a very experienced broker who is able to sort all unexpected random issues quickly. Great experience, thanks!
Sam is the best dealer I have ever encountered. He was very professional, responsive and transparent with the deals. He quickly found a car that fits my need and patiently discussed the options with me. Not to mention he actually helped me found an insurance that saves me a couple of hundreds and could start the insurance within a day so I can start driving my dream M4 just within 4 days.
This is the 2nd time we worked with Sam and as always the experience was super smooth! Sam is very professional, super responsive and easy to work with.
We leased a 2024 BMW iX recently. We were able to find the specs and color/trim we were looking for. The numbers worked for us and we were able to finalize the car within a couple of days.
I highly recommend him for anyone whoās looking for a great deal and a smooth car buying experience.
Iām also a repeat Autopia customer like many of the prior posters. Iām out of state for their dealers which requires a lot of extra work on their part but Sam is always super responsive and with you throughout every step of the process. Canāt recommend them enough!
Recently Sam posted his 2024 Ix deals and within 5mins of his post, we made the impulsive decision to message him. Sam immediately responded and gave us numbers and builds. We went back on forth on options and colors, Sam was super patient considering it was our first time using a broker. LOTS of questions from our side but Sam just knows his stuff. We agreed on a delivery day and everything went perfect. We will definitely use Sam again in the near future!
I just picked up a 2023 BMW M340i through Sam at Autopia. What a wonderful car buying experience! It was by far the easiest car purchase Iāve made. The prices are great and the process is very straightforward. Sam was super patient with my many questions, and provided outstanding customer service. He was able to get me a local allocation with a promised delivery time of 6 to 8 weeks. Looking at how long other buyers were waiting on their M340iās, I thought for sure there was no way I would get the vehicle in time. But sure enough, itās been 6 weeks on the dot and the car is in the garage! Sam will be the first person I think of when shopping for a new car.
