Sam and Pedro were awesome! 0 pressure, almost surprising based on how great of a deal they got me on my 2024 iX! They spent time explaining everything and sending me builds and prices for the many permutations and options I threw at them until I found the one I wanted! Would definitely work with them again!

Working with Sam has been a pleasure! Sam helped me get my 1st car ever, which is a 2024 BMW M440i xDrive Gran Coupe. This is my first time purchasing a car, and I’m using a remote broker, so it was naturally a bit daunting at first, however, Sam & Pedro from Autopia did such an amazing job that the whole process has been really smooth & hassle-free. Although the whole time frame was a bit longer than initially expected due to a few hiccups, the end result - seeing the beautiful machine in person in perfect condition - made the waiting absolutely worth it.
I believe what sets Sam apart from all other brokers out there is how genuine and sincere he is. In particular, I appreciate Sam’s patience in communication and his sincerity in making this deal possible for us. I’m very thankful for his efforts in going back & forth and his help along the way.
When I work with Sam, I feel like I’m working with a friend, a brother who will look after me, and whose words I can trust, instead of dealing with a dealership salesman who you have to constantly remind yourself to be cautious.
So I would say for anyone trying to purchase a new car through a broker, Sam at Autopia is the MAN!
I will be coming back to Sam for my next car (M4/Convertible) in a few years. So see you in a couple of years brotha!

Another first time leasee here and I ended up going with Sam and Pedro because they were just so genuinely friendly, responsive and on the ball during my preliminary conversations with a couple of brokers from here. Once I decided to go with Autopia, I never regretted that decision once. In fact I am so glad that I did. Not only did they get me an seriously incredible deal but I always felt like they were in my corner, on my team. I’ll be honest, it’s kind of feels surreal but I just signed my papers and took possession of a brand new 2024 BMW IX50 that I’m absolutely in love with. I really couldn’t have asked for a better partner through this process.
So if you read this and you’re looking for a broker, your search is over. Get in touch with Sam asap!

Second time working with Autopia. Sam was with me from the initial order until I received keys for my BMW M440i. Sam goes above and beyond for his client. He’s transparent, efficient, responsive, professional, knowledgeable, patient, and truly provides the best customer service. Cheers to you Sam, definitely coming back when it’s time!

This was my first time working with a broker and I definitely had some reservation/nervousness but Sam was able to calmly answer any questions I had and worked with me every step of the way to get to the finish line (A Great Deal!). Sam is very responsive to your messages and very transparent/honest with what he’s able to accomplish for you. I am extremely happy with the brand new BMW 330i and i’ll definitely be recommending any friends and family who are in the market to Sam.

Just received my BMW iX through Sam and Youn. Great service, fast reply and really good deal right off the bat. Highly recommended if you are looking to lease a car.
BMW iX was delivered form Norcal → San Diego within a day; so fast that I didn’t even clean out my garage in time for it haha…

This was my first experience using a lease broker and I have to say Sam from Autopia was the absolute best. I could not have imagined a better experience, he answered every question I had and got me an incredible deal. He was quoting a lease of ~20% cheaper than what local dealerships were telling me! I would highly recommend Sam and Autopia that’s in the market for a car. Thanks again!

Sam from Autopia was absolutely amazing!! He tracked down a build on a BMW that I wanted, but there were delays getting the car to the dealer by the time I needed it due to port delays. Sam went above and beyond and worked a deal for me that allowed me to get an even better car same day. Would highly recommend Sam. Thank you Sam!

Absolutely recommended lease broker. I will contact Sam and his company again when my current lease ends.
This is my second time leasing a vehicle with a broker who I found in lease hacker forums. What I liked most about Sam and his company is that the entire process is quite transparent. Most brokers/dealers in this forum don’t even share the lease calculator link, and don’t really share much information before signing in. They pretend that they do, but they don’t share the entire information, which they may claim as “come on. That’s not important.” That’s my experience with all the other lease brokers who actively post ads in this forum.
Sam and his colleague were transparent such that they started sharing the lease hacker calculator link to provide all the breakdown, including the shipping. The other thing that I’d like to appreciate is Sam’s willingness to have an open talk and make the progress as easy as possible. Perhaps, I shouldn’t share too much detail about the deal negotiation here, but I can surely say that
- he is honest
- care about making a great deal for customers, not maximizing his $ profits.
If you are in CA and looking for a lease deal, I highly recommend contacting Sam and Autopia. You won’t regret.

Autopia has made my IONIQ 6 leasing process as easy as it can be. Very convenient and stress free process. Communication was good and they were able to answer every question I had. Will definitely be going with Autopia for my next vehicle lease. Highly recommend Autopia to anyone!

What have I been doing all these years of my life thinking I can negotiate a damn car on my own, Sam was great throughout the entire process, extremely communicative and patient 
I will never hesitate to contact Sam again when it comes to getting a car once again. If you want a company who wants to get you the car more than you do please give them a call. I would’ve never imagined I’d get such a good deal, never seemed possible!
It almost seems like a too good to be true scenario when working with these guys because they really make things happen no matter what. They’re not just a company looking to maximize their profits, they love what they do and work their asses off to make you happy.
They will be with you EVERY step of the way, need the car transported? They have you covered, worried about registering the car not in your possession? They have you covered… want a sick car? Contact these guys.
If I could rate a company 100/10 this would be it.

I wish I was introduced to Sam sooner! He treated us like family and made sure we got exactly what we wanted. This was the easiest car buying experience ever and my first time working with a broker. I had no idea what to expect, and he went way above my expectations. Great personality and a hard worker. Will definitely be coming back to him for a future car and will be recommending him to everyone. Thanks Sam!

First time going with broker. Sam was recommended by a fellow forum member from Reddit. Autopia was also the best all around deals I have been following. Sam was patient with all the questions and answered them clearly. Was treated like a friend every step of the way. Car was ordered and came in the time frame just like Sam estimated. I also recommended my sister to pick up a Q5 through Sam. Definitely will recommend Sam to everyone.

Go with Sam and Autopia if…
- You want the best deal. Sam gave me the best pricing which was ~10% lower than the 2 other brokers and 3 dealers I talked with.
- You hate being ghosted. Day or night, I rarely waited for more than 30 minutes for a reply. I actually exported my conversation with Sam and calculated the average response time—it was less than 15 minutes!
- You want someone who is honest, knowledgeable, and goes above and beyond. Sam’s been in the industry for 4 years and knows what he’s doing. He even got me a fat discount for the accessories that I wanted to get!
- You want good service before, during, and after. The last dealer I worked with years back had thousands of 5-star reviews but once I took delivery, he pretty much stopped responding. Sam checked on me a few times to ensure I was enjoying my new car. You can tell he’s really looking to build a relationship and not someone who’s just trying to make a quick buck.

Brokered a deal with Sam on a BMW IX. Sam was prompt in his responses and most importantly, transparent. Was helpful in getting me incentives and communicated frequently about the status of the car when it was at port.
The spreadsheet is the price you get, no other bs fees and what not. Definitely recommend him in the future.

10/10!
I recently had the pleasure of working with Sam to acquire an IX xDrive50.
The first thing that stood out to me was the personalized approach of Sam. They took the time to understand my preferences, budget, and expectations. This level of attention made me feel valued and confident that they were committed to finding the perfect match for me.
One of the key advantages of working with Sam was their extensive network and industry knowledge. They had access to a wide range of BMW models, allowing me to explore various options and find the ideal combination of features that suited my lifestyle.
Throughout the negotiation and purchasing process, Sam demonstrated a high level of professionalism and expertise. They were transparent about pricing, financing options, and any additional costs involved. This transparency helped me make informed decisions, ensuring that there were no surprises along the way.
Furthermore, Sam went above and beyond to streamline the paperwork and logistics associated with the purchase. Their attention to detail and commitment to efficiency made the entire process stress-free. They were always available to address any questions or concerns, providing timely and clear communication.
Sam’s dedication to customer satisfaction is commendable, and I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone in search of a reliable, knowledgeable, and customer-focused broker.

I was amazed by how dedicated and professional folks at Autopia are. I first started the process by messaging with Youn at night on December 30th which was a Saturday and I picked up the car the next day! The whole process was very smooth and quick. I also had a chance to connect with Sam, he was super cool and helpful.

When I first heard of Autopia and Sam I honestly was very skeptical at first, sounded too good to be true! Optimized deal on hard to find cars, delivered directly to my door, 5 mins of paperwork, and never needing to step foot in a dealership? Has to be some kind of catch…
Now 5 cars in, the only catch is that I’ll never buy a car any other way other than through Sam and his amazing team. My experience has ranged from a BMW m5 competition, to a Hyundai Santa Fe, to a Volvo xc 90c, to a BMW x5, and most recently, a rare BMW x7 m60i in frozen black.
On top of this, Sam’s response time is on the order of milliseconds and he himself is a car enthusiast, so it’s not only an unbeatable car purchasing experience, but also incredibly fun and personalized!
Cannot say enough good things, highly recommend, you’ll never be able to buy a car any other way again!
Thank you Autopia!!!

I can never say enough about Sam and the folks at Autopia. I probably talk about how awesome getting cars through a broker is like vegans talk about being vegans, or people who do crossfit talk about crossfit lol
I’d been chasing a specific build of an EQS 580 SUV that was increasingly hard to come by (color + options, I could only find options but in wrong color or color but with wrong options). And even when I find the only matching build in the state the dealer that had it was several hundreds of $ off a month on the deal. When I told them about Leasehackr they laughed and said “those deals don’t exist, Leasehackr can’t even sell you cars” at which point I remembered why I hated dealing with dealerships directly. Dealing with Sam is always a pleasure, and he surrounds himself with dealership folks of like mind, so they’re always a pleasure to deal with as well.
Anyway, rant aside, Sam found me my unicorn build with the exact spec I wanted and a few extra options peppered in there, and got it delivered to my home in record time even though it was the week between Christmas and New Year which was super busy for everyone.
