Vicki was excellent to work with and provided superior customer service during the purchase of my new Lexus. Thanks Vick for all the help! I walked in to get my car washed and walked out with a new Lexus. Ben and Mike were quick and efficient in explaining the new car features and working on the finance paperwork. Thanks all!

Glenn has incredible attention to detail from understanding your needs to assembling the right staff at the dealership to make it happen. Glenn worked with me every step of the way from timing to budget to the physical car preparation. He was patient and you can tell he is in his role for the long-term relationship and customer success. Glenn is a skilled professional and someone I would recommend to friends and family.

I called McGrath Lexus questioning the availability of a specific car. Joe Scala answered the phone, and the whole experience took its course. He and I scheduled a visit the following day and when I showed up he was very prepared. The whole process was smooth, he made sure all my questions had been answered. When introduced to Geoff Pebelske, I quickly experienced the honesty of the McGrath name. The attention to the person was outstanding. I have had my fair share of experiences at other local dealers, but this one by far has left me happy with my purchase. Thank you Joe!!!

I was in the market for a car, and my search took me to McGrath Lexus of Westmont where I was assigned Mr Joseph Scala as my Sales Advisor. Because we currently have two other Lexus vehicles (LS430 and LX470), and I had previously owned a GS430, I thought I knew all there was to know about Lexus vehicles. Mr Scala patiently went over the innovations in the newer LS460 we wanted, and facilitated a very painless and rewarding experience for my wife and I.Since we bought our first Lexus in 2003, we have been to dealerships in IL and Texas, and McGrath Lexus was, by far, the very best experience we have had, particularly due to the attention and assistance we received from Mr Scala. We w=left with our new purchase feeling very good about the experience.I would definitely recommend Mr Scala and McGrath Lexus to my friends and associates.

I would ask for Glenn when you go this dealership. He has a great attitude and there was no BS. He is genuine. We were hoping to get someone like him. We did end up purchasing a car from him and I'm glad he got the sale. Thanks Glenn

I was exceptionally pleased with the attention and courtesy I received from Lukas Polska. His skill as a salesman is admirable. When I visited the dealership I initially was uncertain as to any car preference .After lengthy conversation,Lukas was able to suggest the car that would be best for me. He had an uncanny ability in identifying which car would be a good fit for me. I love my Lexus and thank Lukas for his expert assistance. His cordial personality and gracious manner resulted in a very pleasant and rewarding experience.

I called in and was greeted by Joe Scala. I told him about the vechile I was inquiring about and Joe check the vechile out of inventory and had it clean and ready to go the moment I arrived. He said the vechile wouldn't start at fist because it been sitting for a while so. He had a new battery put in. He explained how much he loved the car as well and made me feel like I had made a great choice. The system had went down so Joe told me to come back the next day. I went to the mall up the street and before I could start shopping Joe called me back and told me to come get me car my car. I was so excited and the experience at McGrath Lexus is top notch. Thank you Joe and Mike Connery for working with me to get the deal done!!! I will always car shop here first before any place else. I would recommend this dealership to all my friends and family. You guys are the best.

We have purchased three cars from McGrath and have always worked with Joseph Scala. He is one of the reasons we keep coming back. Joseph's attention to every detail is amazing, he makes sure we are always well taken care of. Joseph made the buying of my son's Lexus go smoothly, he came in early to accommodate our schedule. What we like most about Joseph is that he cares about his customers after the sale is finalized. Joseph is always willing to help when we have needed to service our cars. We trust Joseph and know that he will always try to help in any way possible. We will continue to buy from McGrath as long is Joseph is there to help us.

No one likes buying a used car, but it's easy if Joe Scala works with you. Bought my third car from him yesterday. He let us know about the perfect car so we came in and tried it out. It wAs great so we had to negotiate a price. He is so fair and you walk out with a new car and the feeling that you got a great deal. Super knowledable and an all around great man. We will be back in a couple years!!!

Over my life time I have bought many used cars and had a Average experience at other dealerships. Then when I met Joe Scala and his team that all changed. Joe.is a straight forward person who delivers on all aspects of the business model. He makes sure that you happy throughout the process from beginning till the very end. He is very fair and takes the time to explain everything. You walk out driving a new car feeling good. Just over a year ago I had a major transplant and when I either saw Joe at the dealership or the one time in Lake Geneva he displayed a genuine concern For my overall recovery and happiness. This is not a trait that is overlooked. So when I want to service my cars or get a free car wash I stop by McGrath Lexus of Westmont where Joe is always willing to chat. I would like to thank McGrath Lexus for the experience that they provide. I always look forward to stoping by and seeing. Joe or dealing with my friend Casey Camosa in service.,-FsdqwfzKindness Regards,Paul Kelty

This was my first car purchase and it was such a wonderful experience. Everyone I encountered at McGrath Westmont was very friendly and accommodating. It was such a pleasure working with Joe Scala. He is very knowledgeable and took his time explaining my purchase...no pressure whatsoever. Financing was a breeze. I'm looking forward to having my car taken care of by McGrath. Thanks again for your wonderful service!

I met Joe Scala through the Service Department, when it became time to update my vehicle there was a seamless transition from service to sales resulting in getting the vehicle that best fulfilled my requirements. Everyone I encountered was helpful and efficient I could not have asked for a better experience.

The minute we walked in the excellent service began. Joe was on a call and he immediately hung up to take care of us even though the receptionist was barely asking how she could be of help. He was thorough, asked the right questions to know what to look for and was never pushy. I would highly recommend working with Joe. He was very accommodating even though we had to leave twice that day to take care of personal errands that couldn't wait. Patient, knowledgeable, great demeanor. Thanks Joe Scala! Also to Mike in Finance who was very efficient with the paperwork and explaining everything as well as the tech department for going over the features of the truck and setting everything up.

I've bought 10+ vehicles and never had a better experience or felt more comfortable with the entire transaction. I wasn't pressured and knew from the minute I met Joe that I was getting a fair deal and a quality product. I would recommend Joe to both my friends and family!

I found a 2016 Lexus RX 350 online, called McGrath Lexus for availability and spoke with Mel Owens. Mel was great, he had the car ready for me to see and test drive, of course diving the RX 350 was a overall experience! Mel answered all my questions and concerns, he was awesome and of course I bought the car. The demonstrating of the vehicle was a pleasantly unexpected experience. Mike Angello was also a great help, he worked very hard to find the best finance loan for me. I would highly recommend McGrath Lexus and Mel Owens to anyone looking for a great vehicle, awesome service and a outstanding car dealership with very pleasant employee's.Anita A.

The purchase of our Lexus RX 350 at McGrath was a rewarding and outstanding experience. Joe Scala, our Sales Consultant, was very knowledgeable and compared advantages, benefits and values of different cars. He was very thorough and direct "selling" Lexus and the dealership. It was a pleasure doing business with Joe.Before taking possession of the RX 350, Ben Kruchten took us through a tutorial of the car explaining all of the car's features and systems. Again, an excellent and thorough job and extremely helpful.The total sales and delivery experience would have to be rated as exceptional. I would highly recommend McGrath, and particularly Joe Scala, to future customers.

I went to McGrath Lexus of Westmont looking for a vehicle. I was greeted by Joe Scala. I explained to Joe what I was looking for and my budget. Joe found several vehicles that fit my parameters. The whole experience at the dealership and with Joe was painless and pleasurable. From the intial sales process through finance through demonstrating all of the vehicle's amenities, my experience was nothing short of spectacular. The entire dealership staff was respectful and great to work with. Great care was taken by everyone I came in contact with. The dealership is very comfortable and all the attitudes in the dealership are warm and faces are seen with smiles. I highly recommend McGrath Lexus of Westmont and highly recommend Joe Scala for your next vehicle purchase.

I needed a car and Joe stepped up and showedme a great car in my price range. He texted me the pictures of the car before I came in to make sure if it was a car that I would like. I was greeted at the door by friendly faces. Joe is pretty straight forward guy. Made the whole process painless. The finance guy I dealt with was awesome also. Would buy my next car here.

I went to Lexus of Westmont looking for a car for my daughter and was helped by Joe Scala. I had researched the vehicle I wanted and explained to Joe what I am looking for and the budget I had. I am in the military stationed at Fort Hood and Joe knew I only had a few days before heading back. I was perfectly fine with waiting on a purchase but Joe did a great job of making the price right and taking care of me as a military member. I want to say something about the experience I had with the dealership. Joe was great but what a supporting cast of people he has. I never felt pressured and was totally taken care of by everyone I came in contact with. The dealership is very comfortable from the nice layout to the breakfast/lunch bar in the main lobby. The attitude of everyone is "how can I help". I would highly recommend the dealership and highly recommend Joe Scala to help anyone with purchasing a new car.

BUYER BEWARE.I am a retired Air Force officer and a current government civilian employee that continues to serve our country. On Friday, 26 August my transporter arrived at the dealership to pick up a vehicle. While still in possession of the dealer (a dealer employee driving the vehicle) the vehicle was damaged and required body and paint work. As this is not what I paid for (a damaged and/or repaired) vehicle, I preferred to reverse the sale as I had never actually taken delivery of the vehicle. I was told by Mr. Geoff Pebelske that the only option(s) that I had is for them to fix...or not fix the vehicle...but, either way it was my vehicle (though I have never taken delivery of it). Since the accident at the hands of the lexus employee at the Lexus Dealership on Friday, 26 August, I made numerous phone calls and left numerous messages for Mr. Greg Luzinski, Mr. Geoof Pebelske, Ms. Maria Giampietro, and sent several text messages to Mr. Joseph Scala. During this time I have received only ONE response from the individuals mentioned above. And, that was to tell me that only option(s) that I have is for them to fix...or not fix the vehicle...but, either way it is my vehicle (though I have never taken delivery of it). Additionally, I filed a Better Business Bureau complaint against the dealer as well. FINAL response from this dealer being, "We have gone above and beyond for this customer. The car in is excellent condition. He received a great vehicle. We hope he enjoys it." The following is an excerpt from the complaint: 16 August. -- Was told by Mr. Scala not to send transport until he had confirmation that the USAA bank check had cleared.20-23 August. -- Sent text messages daily asking Mr. Scala, are we still waiting for USAA bank check to clear. -- Received no response until 541pm on 23 Aug.24-25 August. -- Requested Sales Manager information from Mr. Scala.25 August. -- Received management contact information at 343pm. -- Was unable to reach either Mr. Geoff Pebelske or Mr. Greg Luzinski.26 August. -- Received text from Mr. Scala to call ASAP because there was a slight problem with the vehicle.-- The vehicle had been in an accident while being driven by a Lexus of Westmont employee.26 August.-- Spoke direct to Mr. Pebelske. Was told that there were only two optionLexus of Westmont could repair the vehicle...or not repair the vehicle...but, either way the vehicle now belonged to me (though I had not taken delivery of it at time).27 August.-- Sent text to Mr. Joseph Scala stating do NOT repair the LS430 that was still in their possession (I had not taken initial delivery of the vehicle) until I had the opportunity to speak to an attorney.-- Sent e-mail to Mr. Geoff Pebelske and Mr. Joseph Scala stating do NOT repair the LS430 that was still in their possession (I had not taken initial delivery of the vehicle) until I had the opportunity to speak to an attorney.27-28 August.-- No response / Acknowledgement from Mr. Pebelske or Mr. Scala.28 August. -- Requested sales, legal, and accounting contacts at Lexus corporate from Mr. Joe Scala and Mr. Geoff Pebelske. No response / Acknowledgement received. 29 August.-- Sent e-mail to Mr. Pebelske and Mr. Scala stating that I had calls in to the Illinois Bar Association and a couple of attorney offices. I let them know that I anticipated initial consults my mid-week.30 August.-- No response / Acknowledgement from Mr. Pebelske or Mr. Scala.31 August - 3 September.-- Attempted to make contact with Mr. Greg Luzinski and Mr. Geoff Pebelske via phone (left voicemails) and with Mr. Joseph Scala via text.-- No response / Acknowledgement from Mr. Luzinski, Mr. Pebelske or Mr. Scala.6 September.-- I received a text from the transporter stating that he would be at the drop-off location (my residence) between 6pm and 630pm.-- Per the transporter, "The pickup was requested by the dealership after the vehicle was fixed. Jeff (Pebelske) was the one who authorized (release)...".BOTTOMLINE: All attempts to have any discussions with Lexus of Westmont were totally ignored. So, at this point, it appears that Lexus of Westmont, a dealer that has already proven to be irresponsible, dishonest and untrustworthy, would like me to take their word that no other damage occurred as a result of the accident that took place at their dealership with one of their employees driving the vehicle (before I accepted delivery of the vehicle). I was never given the opportunity to have the vehicle inspected after the accident and I was never given an inspection report of any type from the dealer certifying that there was no other damage. And, again, I point out that the vehicle was damaged and experienced diminished value prior to me taking delivery of the vehicle. The vehicle was repaired without my permission or agreement on terms of settlement. The vehicle was then rescheduled for transport and released to a transporter without my knowledge or authority. Luckily, I left the office at 5pm (just in time to receive notification of intent to deliver the vehicle in an hour). Even more so, was extremely lucky that I was actually in town and not on personal or business travel.Further, I may NOT have wanted Lexus of Westmont to perform the repair work as I have had excellent paint and body work completed on one of my vehicles at a local shop that does great work and provides excellent customer service. My preference would have been to have the gentleman here perform the repair work. If this is an example of "We have gone above and beyond for this customer", I would say again, BUYER BEWARE.

10/10 would recommend to friends and family. Buying my first real car, almost everyone was out to simply line their pocket and take me for a ride. With Casey, I had the feeling she care about me more than the sale. Not only that, but she made sure to follow up with me and make sure I still loved the car. She was honest and listened to what I needed and wanted in a vehicle to find me the perfect match The moment I drove off the lot with my car I knew I had made the best decision. I really do not know how to best describe how grateful I am that Casey helped me. My vehicle is not only my weekend get away, but also my professional lifeline. Everything about it has made my life easier. Thank you Casey!!!!

I recently picked up a Used Mercedes G550 at the dealership, it was a very positive process for me as a buyer. I highly recommend Mr Joe Scala to anyone looking to do business at this location. He was very proactive while not to pushy like many other sales men, he did not tell me to much stories (some sales people tell you elaborate tales) about things I do not care about. I travel a lot and he made it very easy for me to come in and he had all the paper work ready for me to sign off so I can go about my Saturday morning. I spent about 2 hr at the dealership 9 am-11 am, which is pretty impressive if you have been through buying vehicle before. The team (Sales and Finance) were very respectful of my time. If I look to upgrade in the future I will look to do business with him again and that particular McGrath Westmont location.

It's was so nice to not have the going back and forth sales game that I have dealt with in the past when purchasing a car! Won't ever go to another dealership.

When I arrived at McGrath Lexus of Westmont I was approached by a salesmen named Justin Storandt. Justin made my entire car buying experience quick and easy. He never pressured me, and he made sure I had every piece of information possible about the cars I was interested in purchasing. The entire experience was enjoyable and stress free. Justin is one of the finest sales representative I've encountered In all my years of automobile ownership. These are the type of employees companies should build their business around.

Casey Baca has sold me two Lexus RX350's in the last year and I won't buy from anyone else! I couldn't be happier that she was the sales person who helped me the first day I walked into McGrath. She is honest, professional, and knowledgeable. She was patient and took the time to work with me and help me through the entire process. Casey has gone far beyond the expectations I had in buying a car and she is the reason I will continue to come back time and time again. She is the best at what she does and I have complete confidence in her! I have and will continue to recommend her to my friends and family. As always, a huge thank you to Casey!

Casey sold me my very first beautiful lexus. Not only did casey take a few days to work with me she evaluated my everyday life to see which lexus car would not only be perfect for me but a Money saver with gas and miles. Casey truly goes the extra mile for her costumers! I would never go to anyone else and would recommend her to my family and closest friends. She is very knowledge about every car she sells and takes all the time that her costumers need (which is very comforting) to know that she is not out just to sell you are car but to pick just the right one that suits your lifestyle.

Casey Baca is honest, dedicated and a true professional. She is honest and extremely knowledgeable about every car's condition and value. She gets the best deal and car for her clients and works extremely hard to make it happen in your best interest. I have bought many cars mostly from Lexus of Westmont, and there isn't anyone else I would go to to get the best car and the best price. After the deal was over and we traded in our old car for the new car, most sales associates consider their job done, not Casey. She set up our technology meeting, helped us unload our belongings, entertained our 3 kids while we met with the finance consultant and went beyond our expectations with her care for EVERY detail. She is simply outstanding. Thank you, Casey

Casey was a fantastic salesperson who was completely honest about both price and the condition of every car. Her knowledge of the vehicles went well beyond our expectations. She was very flexible on pricing, without giving everything away. We came away with a beautiful vehicle that had much lower milage than expected and Casey led us through the entire process easily and happily. She was a delight to work with and we look forward to many more car-buying experiences with her in the future. Thanks Casey!- MB

I recently had my car totaled, a Lexus RX400h, and came to Joe to see what he had. Right away, he knew what would fit me. A 2013 had just come in, low mileage, beautiful color. In less than 1/2 hour, I had made the decision to buy the car. Came in a couple of days later and found a ribbon on my new car, thanks to Joe! They treat you special at McGrath, and Joe Scala is one that does it the best!

I first spoke to Joe Scala over the phone to inquire about a certified NX 300 hybrid. Joe welcomed the opprotunity to work with me over the phone since I live out of state in Indiana. Joe was very professional and went above and beyond as he patiently answered all of my questions and work through the majority of the details of our purchase before I even left my house. When I arrived in town I couldn't help but be impressed by the quality of the dealership and the service I received. Both Joe and McGrath made the purchase of our first Lexus a great experience. Thanks again Joe.

Mine is the 3rd Lexus our company has purchased, all from Joe Scala. I love my red GS350 FSport! Joe was wonderful to work with; always looking out for my best interest. He knew what I wanted, found it, negotiated the trade and got it to us - all within 48 hours! He went above and beyond to ensure our satisfaction. Thank you Joe!

I had purchased a Lexus from Joe Scala in 2012. When it came time to purchase another Lexus, Joe was the first person I called. Joe is very knowledgeable about the product he is also very patient with his customers. Joe is not pushy and very much wants you to be satisfied with your purchase. I hope Joe continues to work at McGrath Lexus for a long time. Overall my experience at McGrath was wonderful from Joe to the finance person Aldo Datoli and everyone in between. This is a dealership that treats people with respect. Everyone says hello and asks if you are being helped.

Joe Scala helped me find my dream RX - Joe was transparent and did not apply high pressure sales technique. Joe wanted me to be happy with my purchase, which is why I have returned for the 4th time. Joe I love driving my RX450 - thank you.

The people , Mike Connery and Joe Scalla were low pressure but very helpful. I learned a great deal from both sales and finance experts .They knew the stock available and answered all my questions about finance and the model I test drove. The cafe was also a treat as I had been to other dealers and was famished. Delicious sandwich ! Thanks

This was my first experience with McGrath Lexus and I'm sure it won't be my last. Joe Scala was top-notch and not "sales-y" at all. He was up front about all costs involved and worked with us to fit my beautiful car into our monthly budget. The dealership itself is gorgeous and feels really opulent, yet homey at the same time. Thanks for the great experience! I will definitely be telling my friends.

This is our 6 vehicle purchased from Joe Scala at McGrath and each time the experience gets better. He has mastered the ability to find us the exact model we are looking for and made the buying process hassle free. I am a customer for life with Joe!

After doing my usual over-the-top research, we decided on buying a new 2016 RX 350. Went to a local Lexus dealer and were less than impressed. Then tried McGrath Lexus of Westmont based on a friend's recommendation. We worked with Art Kuhl - what an awesome experience! Art is very knowledgeable and helpful, and really enjoyable to work with. He was never was pushy and always made us feel like he was working for us to ensure we found the exact vehicle we wanted. When it came to negotiating "the deal" we had TrueCar pricing info. Art / McGrath gave us a very fair deal based on TrueCar pricing. No gimmicks, no add-ons, no hassle . I'd recommend Art Kuhl / McGrath to anyone looking for a Lexus - you won't be disappointed. I wish all sales consultants were this customer focussed - and fun to work with.Aldo Datoli helped us with financing, what a breeze. He made the usual paperwork shuffle seem fun. And Bob Cowden is a blast to work with in getting to know all of the tech equipment that is in the RX. Work with Art and his team - you will truly enjoy it. (The RX is incredible - best vehicle I've ever had in 48 years!)Thanks Art!

McGrath Lexus of Westmont had a 2014 Passat for sale. I was interested in the car and Joe Scala was more then helpful. We were able to work out a price before I went down since the car was two hours away. He was very honest and even sent a video and highlighted the flaws. Once I drove to the dealership, everything checked out and I purchased it that day. About Five days later I went back down to pick up the vehicle since it had body work done to it. The whole time the staff at McGrath were professional and polite. I truly enjoyed my car buying experiance.

I just purchased a pre-driven SUV with the much appreciated assistance from Joe Scala. I had been looking for a pre-driven SUV and happened to see one on the dealer website. Joe Scala contacted me and completely understood what I was looking for and wanted in a vehicle. He offered his advice and recommendation on a vehicle that just came in on a trade-in. After the test drive, I knew it was the perfect vehicle for me! Joe listened, didn't pressure the sale, and was courteous and friendly throughout the entire process. McGrath Lexus and Joe Scala have certainly made a lasting impression on me! I will definitely recommend both to my friends and family.

I have now purchased 4 pre-driven cars from McGrath. I always deal with Glenn Ginter, as he is laid back and never sells with pressure. My overall experience with McGrath is superior and I truly trust the people who work there. Buying a car can be intimidating, but I feel very comfortable when dealing with Glenn. I appreciate the honesty and friendliness of the service department too if I ever need additional work done.

Joe and Tracy thank you both so much for helping us purchase a car for my daughter's birthday. This is the second car I have purchased from Joe and based on our history with Lexus there will be many more to come. The presentation and set up for my daughter's car was amazing and it truly made a memory she will never forget. Thank you for coming in on your day off to deliver the car to her. It was a great day for all of us. Thanks to McGrath for going over and beyond our expectations!!!

Joe Scala made this purchase an enjoyable experience. He picked out the right car for us before we even arrived. He was very professional and knowledgeable. I never enjoyed buying cars because of the pressure applied by salespeople. Joe did not pressure us at all. He did a wonderful job.Aldo worked with us on the paperwork and found us great financing. Jimmy did a great job explaining the details of the Lexus. Both were very professional and helpful.An excellent experience.

Everything was fine with finding the perfect vehicle (Chevrolet Tahoe) for us and the loan approval. Once the purchase went thru I took the vehicle home but I was supposed to get vehicle matts order here we are 1 year latter and I never received them also I call several times and spoke to Jeff Walker and I got nothing but excuses once I look over my paperwork so I can file a report am as missing the sold as is document that is the said what I entitle to them. Then I call and find out he no longer works there so I try to talk to the use vehicle manager more than one time and never once he try to call me back or get in contact with me so This what I can tell you do not sign any documents or do not take the vehicle until you have what they office you. I am really disappointed

Paul was extremely courteous, helpful and honest in discussing the cars we were looking at. We found a beautiful certified RX-350. My wife loves it and so do I.

I had a great used car buying experience. I called about a used vehicle and spoke with Joe Scala. I told him the vehicle I was interested in and he made sure it was available and set an appointment with me. When I arrived he had the vehicle washed and waiting for me. We went for a test drive and when we got back he started the paperwork on my trade. While I waited for that and other paperwork to be completed Joe bought me lunch at the cafe inside the dealership! I was very impressed. By the time I finished eating the paperwork was done. We finished the financial details and I was on my way. Overall I had a great buying experience at McGrath Lexus of Westmont. I would shop here again and recommend it to my friends and family.

We saw a used car on the online inventory and called to make sure it was still available. Joe emailed back and had the car ready for us when we showed up. We showed up 8 minutes before the dealership closed and fell in love with the car instantly. It was Saturday night and Joe was about to go celebrate his wife's birthday but he took the best care of us through the entire car buying process! He was there till we drove away with the car.He handed us over to Mike to finish out the financing portion and everyone was literally the nicest people ever! They all stayed and we kept apologizing for keeping them after and they made us feel like we were silly for apologizing. We had previously purchased my mom's car from this dealership and I can guarantee all future cars will be purchased from here as well! Thanks! :)

We arrived at the Westmont location to look at a pre-owned Lexus around 6:20 PM on 3/28/2016. We had a meeting setup with Justin Big J Storandt (Yes, this was actually on the office name-plate). Upon arrival, we were told how lucky we were that we arrived a little early since there was another family trying to look at the same vehicle. Sure, we thought, just another sales tactic. The test drive was great, the car was in good shape and we decided that we wanted to see what kind of deal we could negotiate for the car. The usual tactics ensued; talking to the sales manager, stalling to make you wait, telling us how great the car was, yada-yada. After about an hour and a half in the dealership, we were going over the trade-in details and were asked what we were looking for from our current car. After more deliberations and stalling, the sales manager (Geoff Pebelske) came back and said that we were too far apart on the trade-in. While thinking that we were actively negotiating a deal and that we would meet them somewhere in the middle, we noticed that a few offices down where a family was completing paperwork on a deal. This seemed to confirm our thoughts that the other family was just a negotiating tactic. So after a few more minutes of hanging around waiting for an offer for our car (Which had never even been looked at), Geoff the sales manager walks up and again states how far apart we are on the trade. We then ask Justin the salesman if the car had been sold, to which he replied yes. So at this point we were in the dealership for over 2 hours negotiating for a car that was being sold to someone else at the exact same time. I mean, how crazy is that? Who does business that way!?!? And after seeing how upset we were and telling them that we are giving them a poor review, Justin had the nerve to offer a tank of gas as compensation. In his defense, he at least seemed embarrassed by this whole situation. Geoff on the other hand told us that this is the auto industry and left it at that. No sign of remorse or conscience. Needless to say, we will never, EVER be shopping at ANY dealership with the name McGrath on it.

In my search for my next vehicle i drove acura, audi, bmw, and Lexus. Once i decided ivwanted a lexus i did a search and found the unit online at McGrath of Westmont. From the moment Joe Scalla responded to my email request i was treated with courtesy, professionalism, and expedience. Joe was great at getting me the details needed to make the purchase without driving the car, as i was 200 miles from the dealership. Lexus is a great brand and the L certified program gave me the confidence to buy. Joe and his team made it an enjoyable experience.

In November of 2015 I purchased a used Volkswagen Passat from McGrath Lexus of Westmont. Gay Fuller was my salesman. I had been looking for this particular car for quite some time and found it at McGrath. Inquired about it and Gary contacted me. I live in Iowa and drove 3 hours to get to the dealership to look at and ultimately purchase the car. One of the big selling points to the car that really reassured me is that Gary told me that I had a 3 month warranty on the vehicle that if I found anything major on the vehicle. 2 of my friends that came with me also had heard him mention that. After I purchased the car and made the 3 hour drive home, I had a check engine light come on. Took it to my local mechanic and he said that a timing issue was occurring on the car and said it could potentially be very serious. The day after I purchased the car I called Gary back and told him and he said that my mechanic was wrong and that all it needed was an oil change. (my mechanic laughed at that). I continued to drive the car for about a week and took it to another well known VW dealer in the area and they confirmed the same thing my mechanic said about the timing issue and said that it was going to be very expensive to fix. I even had the VW dealership call and talk to Gary and Gary argued with the service tech about the issue(his arrogance was really shining now). I talked to the used car sales manager(Geoff Pebleske) and he said that he would agree to look at the car but I would need to get it back to westmont. My VW dealer told me not to drive the car that far that I could potentially blow the motor up. So I paid the money out of my pocket to trailer the car 3 hours. McGrath gave me a loaner for 3 weeks. so after 3 weeks I returned to pick up my car again and found out all they did was an oil change on it... Hmm a 3 week long oil change? sounds sketchy. after I got the car back I had the check engine light come back on just like previously. this time when I called the dealership Gary stopped returning my phone calls. the Used car sales manager stopped returning my phone calls. I even called once and talked to a different manager who said he would look into and get back to me. all of this is about early January of 2015 that these phone calls are occurring. (only one month into my supposed warranty). I took my VW back to my mechanic and told him with my newborn child coming within a month that I need this car fixed. So after him having it for a month and almost $2000 in repairs, What had happened is the bolt on the oil pump which is in line with the timing chain had loosened. Luckily the bolt didn't fall all the way out or else I would have had to buy a whole new motor for the car. I still have the parts that my mechanic took out and you can tell that the bolt that was the issue had been loose for a while because of the wear marks on the threads. the car was a ticking time bomb and I have no idea how it didn't explode. I will admit that when I purchased the car I was so very impressed with McGrath Lexus of Westmont. On my drive home I was actually excited to purchase another car from them and I had such an amazing experience. But after being lied to by Gary, and 2 other managers I cant even believe a company continues to do business like that. Gary kept bragging to me about how good of a salesman he is. Well I guess when you tell straight lies to customers faces then I guess it would be easy to sell cars. I'm a mechanical guy myself, I realize you can't foresee issues like this. It was a coverup from day one. I didn't even make it home before the check engine light came on. so they had to of known when I bought the car. I would have been more than happy to even work out an agreement with McGrath but that's hard to do if they don't ever call you back and honor anything that they are saying. all in all I will never be going to back to McGrath Lexus of Westmont. Biggest mistake I did was even walking through the front door

I recently came in on Friday for a car wash and while in the dealership I noticed a beautiful 2016 RX350. I instantly knew it was the right car for me and my wife. Joe was able to structure a fair deal on our trade-in and worked very hard to get us in the car and out on the road in very short order. The whole team at McGrath is awesome at what they do and Joe has been my go to guy for a long time. Nice work Joe!

In 2007 I bought pre-owned Lexus RX350 (with 10,000 miles) from McGrath Lexus in Westmont. Since my work requires me to drive many miles a day, and also having back issues, this car gave me a very comfortable ride, and I absolutely loved it. After 7 years and many miles, I decided to trade it in for a new one.I went back to McGrath Lexus. Sales rep Justin Storandt showed me their pre-owned inventory and we came across 2014 Lexus RX350 with only 6,000 miles. I asked number of times if this car still has a comfortable ride, since I still drive a lot for work and still have back issues. I was guaranteed by Justin and his manager Geoff Pebelske that it is exactly same car. It was not an easy decision, because the car was $40,000 (more than I wanted to spend). But since I was guaranteed that it will have the same comfortable ride, I bought the car.After just a few days of driving, I noticed that the car was driving very differently than my old one. The ride was much stiffer. My back and wrists were hurting within few days due to all the vibrations in the car. I went back to the dealership and was send to the mechanics to take a look. I was in shock when mechanics told me that the car I purchased is nothing like my old one. It has been redesigned in 2009, with a truck like ride. They went over all the changes that make this car to have a much stiffer ride.I went to speak to Justin about what happened but was told that the deal was already done and nothing can be done. I tried to speak with Geoff and he refused to see me, saying that nothing can be done.I am not in the position to waste $40,000 on a car that does not surve its purpose. And I really did not expect Lexus resort to lying to make a sale. I believe dealership should be held accountable for their actions. But the only things that I have been offered is a free car wash.

I recently worked with Joe Scala to purchase a Lexus LX570. I reside in Arizona which makes such a purchase more difficult. Joe is an outstanding representative and exceeded my expectations regarding every aspect of the sales experience. He is prompt, meticulous and thinks of everything. I would recommend Joe without reservation if you are in the market for a luxury vehicle.

I just want to write a review about my experience at McGrath in Westmont. I received the best customer service from the time I stepped in McGrath. My salesman Justin was great. He was friendly and very knowledgeable about the vehicles there & and what was available. He made me feel very welcome. Also, Mike Agnello was great as well. He really put together the best financial package for me. Although the process was lengthy these guys made it all worth it. The customer service at McGrath is the best in town!!!!!

Recently I was in the market for a new car. I looked at BMW, Mercedes, Porsche, Jaguar, Audi and Lexus. By far my experience at McGrath Lexus in Westmont , IL was phenomenal when compared to all the others. In the past I have bought cars at all the above dealerships but the Lexus experience was so good that it will be hard for me to go anywhere else in the future.

I purchased my first car on Saturday at McGrath Lexus. I called Joe because I heard that he was the best, and he exceeded my expectations. He spent numerous hours with me going over the details of the cars and taking the time to find me the perfect car. He worked with my price range and made sure my car was safe and applicable to my lifestyle. I really appreciate all of his patience and time. I would recommend him to anyone! All the Lexus services were great as well.

I found the experience to be simple and transparent. Joe and Tracey were upfront fair and Ray to deal with. The finance team of Mike and Bob were also extremely helpful.

This was my first experience in a Lexus dealership and I don't think I'll ever need to visit another showroom. Vicki has a pleasant non aggressive demeanor. She took the time to listen to what was important to me in the buying decision and delivered on every promise. Vicki and her finance team presented me with an incredible offer right out of the gate - no haggling neccessary. I highly recommend Vicki and her team of professionals!MikeElmwood Park

I bought a Lexus in the spring and went back in with my brother in the winter when he bought his Infiniti. This crew of guys could not have been more helpful. They got us the the car we wanted, the price we could afford, and the interest rate we needed. Thanks guys!

I could not have been treated better then I was. From Jason Ellison in sales, Mike Agnello in finance and Bob Cowden who explained how all the features on this new vehicle worked. I was contacted by Maria Giampietro from McGrath management who wanted to hear from me if I was unhappy with the way I was treated. Maria, I have purchased two vehicle from McGrath Lexus and will again in the future.I am happy!

Dear Joe, Ben, and MikeYou have exceeded our expectations! You have excelled at delivering a really spectacular product to a couple of old people from the great state of Michigan. You were dedicated professionals, courteous and committed to serving the customer. Indeed, a unique benevolent team! MANY MANY MANY thanks!!!Our drive home was memorable and exhilarating. Indeed I believe that the past 36 hours or so was a milestone along life's road....Route 66 of course! My young lady decided to cancel meetings and embark upon an impromptu drive to Chicago to try and purchase a spectacular machine. We never do such things!! We are usually more systematic and methodical. But her spontaneity paved the way for my exposure to the profound McGrath hospitality.Anyway I don't wish to waste your time, BUT thanks again!! In forty years time when we need to replace our sparkling AWD 460, we will again drive to see you for the replacement Lexus and to be subjected to that spectacular McGrath service!On a scale from zero to ten, I'd rate you a fifteen or sixteen.CordiallyBrian

We've purchased sveral vehicles from McGrath Lexus. And every experience has been first class. Respectful. No pressure. Knowlegable sales associates. Professional management.Willing to make a competitive deal.I couldn't be more appreciative of Rita Barkstrom, our sales associate, and Tom O'Connor her boss.We had been looking for a particular color combination of the new RX. When we saw it, we decided we wanted to wait for another, much more rare, color combination. No problem. And within a few weeks we had the car we wanted.I've bought cars from a dozen different dealers over the years. None is as good as McGrath Lexus.

Amazingly efficient, professional, relaxed and friendly purchase of our Certified Lexus LS460 that we found on the internet. Drove 4 hours and would do it again to purchase another vehicle. Joe Scala was super as were other people we interacted with during the purchase.

Wasn't any phone tag, he immediately respond when called, or got back at his earliest convenient. Joe Scala he's the "man" can't sell you a car no one can! Thanks Joe!

I have been dealing with McGrath Lexus for 20 years. This is my third Lexus. I keep coming back to this dealership because I have always experienced excellent service from my sales person when buying the cars, to my service reps and service persons when I've had my cars in for maintenance or repairs. It also helps that Lexus is such a great, dependable automobile. Also, I really enjoy seeing familiar faces that have been there as long as I've been going there, such as Rueben. When buying this last car, he happened to be strolling through the area inside where they were cleaning off the car after bringing it over from Pasquanelli Drive. I got a big hug, how are the kids etc. That's really nice. Last, but not least, Joe Scala is a personal friend - our kids went to school together. Knowing Joe personally really took the stress out of buying my new car. I knew he was going to make sure I was buying the right vehicle.

Third Lexus we have purchased from Joe Scala. Joe makes the process go smoothly and stress free. His knowledge and patience are outstanding. Joe met us early in the morning, with great patience he addressed all our concerns and gave us very detailed information so we were able to make the best choice for us. Thank you Joe, we will keep coming back to see you for future purchases.

We had a great experience at McGrath Lexus of Westmont. Joe Scala is by far the best car sales associate I've ever dealt with. We were there with our three young kids. Joe understood, without us having to say, that time (3 kids) was crucial as far as getting this done quickly. He also made sure our kids were taken care of as far as food, drink and entertainment while myself and my husband were handling the details of the purchase. The facility is beautiful. The amenities are many.

Sure we could've bought a Lexus at the dealer 8 miles away from my house but we went 35 miles away to McGrath Lexus of Westmont. Great inventory & starting prices that don't insult your intelligence were what I noticed to start. When dealing with our associate, Joe Scala, I could tell he was knowledgeable and not looking to "sell me." 90% of the time when I buy a car I know more about the make and model than my sales associate, not this time. The staff was friendly, classy and the facility is top notch. I would highly recommend McGrath Lexus of Westmont to anyone seeking out a new or uses Lexus. The drive will be worth it!

I realize now just how important relationships and executive staff are within a dealership. The approach of business stems from the GM and therefore passed down to Sales personnel ( Tracy & Joe). I mentioned I would like to switch my car for an existing used car and so the search began. The professionalism and experience was fantastic . I walked away with my new Lexus (it is a used car but to me I still felt the new -car joy experience) pure awesome:) In addition with the top grade service provided i.e. New Battery / New Wheels / Brakes and Warranty. They further addressed my immediate concerns of car condition. Their understanding while helping me achieve my goal of owning a great Lexus was extremely satisfying within my budget. It's nice to know McGrath Lexus - Westmont, will work with me in both times when I am riding high and when I am rebuilding a new business. Loyalty matters a great deal to me.They made me feel like I mattered to them and from my previous experience with my other Non - Lexus dealer it was just the opposite experience. They won me over all over again - I am all in on Lexus from now on! I am still smiling:) Many Thanks to Tracy & Joe! Best Chris

During my search for a newer car, I found a certified used IS 350 at McGrath Lexus of Westmont that captured my attention. I contacted online sales and they sent my information to Jeff Walker and he the car ready for me to view once I got to the dealership. Jeff was very upfront and a straight shooter, which is what I like. He did not pressure me to make a decision, but we came to an agreement on the price real quick and now I am enjoying my new car!I highly recommend the dealership and Jeff in particular when looking for a new car. I will definitely will be coming back for service and my next car purchase!

McGrath-Westmont had a good selection of the vehicle I was looking for. Joe Scala was able to locate them and quickly bring them to the front for me to try out. The features and the differences were "explained" to me rather than "sold" to me; the difference being that I could gather information to make my own decision rather than feeling pressured by a salesman.The feel of the dealership is more like a small, self-contained "community" rather than a car dealership. Everyone's friendly and going about their business, there are many comfortable places to sit, TVs, delicious cafe, massage, shoe shine, business stations, nice bathrooms -- everything you'd need!

I highly recommend McGrath Lexus in Westmont! I purchased a 2005 Lexus ES330. The car was in great shape. Joe Scala was my salesman. The experience was relaxed with no pressure at all to purchase the car. I was given a great price on this car, and I purchased it. The delivery was very pleasant and very quick, by Mike Agnello Finance Officer. He worked several banks to get me the best interest rate. Tracey Isselhardt, General Manager, met with me and was genuinely concerned for my needs and he made the buying experience awesome! Everyone from management, sales, and service at McGrath Lexus treat you like a friend, not just another customer. I have been a long time McGrath Lexus customer and will be in the future!

Great car buying experience. The polite and courteous disposition flowed from the first call, the front reception desk, every person before and after my sales representative, who I must say was great. Justin Storandt was everything. His office was comfortable although we spent a short amount of time there and that was primarily because he was very prepared. He answered all of my questions thoroughly and provided all the information and material required for me to make a decision and complete a buying process in a smooth and expedient fashion without me feeling pressured or rushed. This is my third lexus and this experience, second to the amazing product, is a reason I am a lifelong Lexus customer.

I wanted to share with Joe and the McGrath Management Team how extremely satisfied with the way my wife and I were treated when purchasing a LX-570 vehicle. Having bought a Lexus E350 two years ago and always purchasing Caddilacs for the past 37 years, I contacted Joe about the Lexus brand and glad I did. I usually do not have very nice comments for Automobile Dealers, however, both buying experiences "exceeded" our expectations and I am compelled to share. Joe Scala is "Top Shelf" and a True Professional with a high level of integrity. He treated my wife Marcia like a "Queen". He was able to find exactly what she was looking for and when you make my " wife" happy - so am I. The atmosphere that Joe presented was calm, appealing and refreshing; NO PRESSURE. Joe introduced us to Mike, Finance Mgr who we share the same sentiments. He made us feel relaxed and we both walked away with a great feeling - Respected and Cared for giving us a better understanding of what pure customer service is. I would like to close that Joe Scala is an " asset" to McGrath Lexus of Westmont. .He has a great future and expect this memo be shared with Joe, his GM and the Owner of the dealership. Joe is very focused with a very like able personality and approach that asks customer i admire. Will I go back to Caddilac? NO WAY'. As long as Joe is selling me a Lexis, " I am a Customer for Life". Both of the vehicles purchased run super and my wife and I enjoy driving. My youngest son bought a SUV from Joe and the Service Team has gone above and beyond expectations. The peace of mind that Lexus stands behind there Sales & Service is so important. I plan to send my oldest son to see Joe in the near future. Thank you for allowing me to comment on Jie Scala/The McGrath Dealership - True Professionals. Dan/Marcia Romito

We first visited Lexus to see about trading in a car and purchasing another pre-owned Certified Lexus GS. Although there were several cars available for one reason or another it did not meet our expectations. The new ES had just been announced and there were a few new ones. I was impressed with the new design and though Justin Storandt normally sells used models he and Tracy worked with my husband and myself and we ended up with a new ES. They could not have been more pleasant to deal with. Honestly everything was taken care of so quickly and efficiently I was overwhelmed. I came into buy a used car and ended up with a brand new car -- my first in many years. Please note we have both owned Lexus' for the last 20 or so years. Mike Connery took care of the financial part thoroughly and efficiently (as usual) and Ben helped me with all of the new features and said to stop by any time with any further assistance.

Casey was my sales associate for a used Lexus I was looking at. She was extremely helpful, friendly, very responsive, honest, and not pushy at all. Her business skills are not reflective of the norm when it comes to the "typical" car buying experience. Even though we couldn't quite come to an agreement on price (admittedly I'm looking at a very rare type of Lexus), she never once made me feel like she lost interest in the deal even though she knew it probably wouldn't happen. That's the mark of someone who really does care about the client and not just the sale. I won't hesitate to recommend her and I will continue to consider McGrath Lexus as an option when buying cars.

I had been shopping for a vehicle for months and MvGraths had one I liked. Joe was patient with me while I made certain the Lexus LS 460 F Sport was the right one and the dealership made me feel comfortable with the numbers. When I showed up for delivery there were no surprises and Joe was helpful and made sure completing the purchase was done without excess haggling and excess time spent waiting. I would buy again from Joe and McGrath's!

There's a great inventory of cars to choose from and their sales is personable! Casey made my car buying experience enjoyable .

Casey is an amazing sales person. She is approachable, straightforward and extremely helpful. Casey knew what I wanted and worked diligently to make it happen. Inventory was moving fast, and she worked her magic to secure the car we wanted and even had it driven from Chicago to Westmont just so I could look at it and drive it. She is very service oriented and works with you to make sure you are happy. I would absolutely work with Casey again. There's no one better!

This is the second car that I have leased from Lexus and both times I used Casey Baca because she is the best, plain and simple. Not only is she extremely knowledgable about the Lexus product but she honestly cares about her clients and is willing to go the extra mile. If you are looking to buy or lease a car with zero stress and frustration and have fun in the process I highly recommend that you contact Casey Baca. You will not be disappointed!!

I couldn't be more satisfied with my car buying experience at McGrath Lexus, specifically Casey Baca! I came in on a Saturday and through Casey's hard work, I left there a few hours later in a new GS. Her product knowledge was awesome but even more, her personality and customer service level is unmatched. Casey is so much fun to deal with and made the experience a fun one. If you're looking for a Lexus, I would highly recommend giving Casey Baca a call! You won't be disappointed.

I came into McGrath Lexus, on the verge of tears because my current car had broken down, yet again and couldn't take pumping money into a depreciating asset any longer. Joe calmed me down, listened to my crazy stories and helped direct me to what it was I was looking for. Before I knew it, I was purchasing a car and couldn't be happy with the process. From the ease and comfort of the office, to Joe scouring the data base to find exactly what I decided I had wanted, to the financing department calming me (when I became anxious yet again!) and giving me an even better deal than the one I had originally anticipated - I couldn't rate them highly enough. They took an anxious, overwhelmed person and made her, not only happy with purchasing a new car, but comfortable the entire time. I felt like I was family there.

Buying my first Lexus was an experience I'll never forget!! Not only was I in complete awe when I walked into the dealership because I felt like I was at a spa but everyone was so welcoming. I met with Joe Scala and told him exactly what I wanted; unfortunately, the car wasn't there that day but Joe went above and beyond not only to locate the car I wanted but to get the order processed asap so they can start the shipping process. I thought I was going to have to wait about a week and that same day I went in, he called to tell me it was going to be available in two days!!! Not only did Joe provide exceptional customer service but in the little time we sat together I left feeling like he was a long time family friend! He made spending a lot of money fun and exciting!I also had the pleasure of working with Greg Luzinski and Tom O'Connor who took exceptional customer to the next level. I couldn't be happier with my purchase and working with all of these gentlemen. Between the love I have for my Lexus IS and the wonderful staff I was fortunate to work with, I will recommend this specific dealership and these gentlemen to everyone!! I'm so excited and couldn't be happier!! So a special Thank you to everyone who made my purchase one to remember!!!

My name is Sean Robinson and I'd like to take this opportunity to personally thank Jeff Walker & Mike Connery for the best experience I've EVER had in purchasing a vehicle from McGrath Lexus. These guys worked tirelessly to ensure that not only, that I got approved; but that I got the best deal possible. Some dealerships you kind of have to your guard up, but not once did I feel that way not once through the process. When it was all over, I felt like Jeff was my new BFF, and Mike was absolute superb answering any and all questions I had. I remember Mike saying, "it's not only about selling a car, that's nothing. It's about building & continuing a relationship." Thanks again!

My wife and I were in the market for a different vehicle. About one month ago she went to McGrath Lexus and subsequently met with Business Manager Mike Agnello. Our financial history made financing difficult due to a past business failure and other personal issues that we had cleared and we were trying to start anew. In speaking with Mike, my wife spoke of these past issues and Mike listened, and listened and listened. He was unable to do anything for financing on this visit but he promised my wife that he would continue to work on it and would be in touch. Every now and again my wife would get a call from Mike who assured her that he had not forgotten about her and that he was still working. Finally, a time later Mike called and invited us to McGrath and that he was sure he could now make something work. Mike personally met us and introduced us to Joseph Scala in sales. Joe assisted us in locating a few different vehicles within our price point and could not have been more helpful in helping us find a good quality vehicle within this range. Joe and Mike worked together as a team and once we picked a vehicle we met again with Mike. As promised Mike was able to make the purchase happen with a price within our budget. We left that evening with a quality vehicle for a fair price and outstanding personal Service from Joe and Mike.But it doesn't quite end there. The next day Mike called us and asked us if we could come into the dealership and that he and he had some good news for us. We couldn't imagine what the news might be. We arranged a time and met with Mike. He located a program that found us an even lower interest rate and shorter payment month.Even after the end of the sale Mike kept working for us and saved us thousands. This is supposed to be a review about a car buying experience. And it is. The the experience could not have been better. But it goes many steps further. Further in that Mike went not steps, but miles further, not to sell a car, but to help my wife and I re-establish a financial footing to get ours and our children's life back on track. Where no one else was able to help, Mike made it a mission. And he succeeded. Unbelievable. Mike Agnello and Joe Scala went beyond any of our expectations and exemplify a dedication to service that I have never experienced before from any car dealership. Mike and Joe made it personal in assisting us and for that I am grateful. I cannot recommend McGrath Lexus/Westmont enough. Especially Mike Agnello and Joe Scala. You have a customer for life.Sincerely.Bob and Rozanne

I have to say that I struggled with writing this review as I had purchased a cpo 2011 es350 from this dealership 2 years back with nothing but a good experience. This time however, we went in looking for a cpo 2013 rx350.... Right off the bat we had a pushy old-school, know-it-all salesman Gary who was trying to push a hybrid on us when we wanted a normal rx350. It got to the point where I bluntly asked the salesman that if he couldn't help us to drive an Rx350 then I'd like someone else.. He pointed us to a manager in a "dont waste my time" manner. The manager was admittedly nice and apologetic and sent us to another salesperson named Casey. Casey was polite but it became apparent in dealings with her and the dealership that there isn't a lot of transparency. We felt pushed to make a deal and the thought of bringing up comparable cars from other dealerships was absurd to them. When trying to ask whether it was even worth coming back to the dealer re: if the price was even negotiable, Casey got angry and exclaimed: "don't tell me how to do my job, I don't tell u how to do yours". Westmont's cars are priced over market value probably due the plethora of older affluent people in the area that don't do their research. I ended up finding the exact car I wanted at mcgrath lexus Chicago the next day and buying it for the price I wanted.. The price mcgrath Westmont said wasn't possible. If you are an educated consumer I would beware. The product knowledge and the typical paternalistic salespeople at mcgrath westmont will waste your time..... For a busy professional like myself, I will go elsewhere with my money.

I have purchased 7 vehicles from Joe Scala at McGrath Lexus in Westmont and each time has been an extremely positive experience. Joe has become my "go-to" guy when purchasing a vehicle for myself or my family. I've also recommended Joe to many of my friends who have told me that they have had the same positive experience dealing with Joe, too.

Who knew that I would come home with a new car yesterday? I simply decided to test drive some pre-owned Lexus SUV's. Joe Scala helped me find one that was exactly what I didn't know I wanted. He was quite helpful and accommodating in every respect. When I got home and was looking over my paperwork, etc., I chuckled to myself because even though I bought a pre-owned vehicle, every service offered made me feel like it was just off the showroom floor. Excellent dealership with excellent staff, including Joe and Ben, the techy helper. Diana

We headed down to Westmont from Wisconsin to buy a Lexus SUV at a different dealership. On our way down, we decided to contact McGrath and see what they had for sale for used Lexus. Joe Scala was excellent and helped us evaluate our options and ultimately, we chose the more expensive one (for multiple reasons) from McGrath vs. buying a similar one from another dealer. No buyers remorse here!

Excellent experience from beginning to end. Joe Scala & Mike Agnello are THE BEST! Full of integrity, knowledgeable, and very patient with me being a first time Lexus buyer. They made sure I got what I wanted and didn't settle! I got the exact vehicle that I desired (Lexus RX350), and I am happy. I am looking forward to future purchases and referring all of my friends and family to this remarkable establishment, with such extraordinary customer service & people that are now my new Lexus family.

Worked with Joe Scala, Mike Connery and Bob Cowden on buying a CPO Lexus RX350 and had a very positive experience. From start to end, the entire team was terrific to work with - professional, respectful and committed to making a deal happen. We're very pleased with the vehicle we ended up with, and I particularly appreciated Joe giving me plenty of time to evaluate and drive several vehicles before deciding on the one we wanted.

I do not not only judge a business by it's perfection, I also judge by how a company handles a situation that for whatever reason does not go perfectly. We are all human and make mistakes. It is how we respond to mistakes when they happen that show the true integrity of a business. I just leased a 2015 RX350. This transaction started out bumpy to say the least. Mostly due to miscommunication. I am taking some responsibility for this as well. Here is what happened at the end of the day. This dealership clearly proved to me that I was very important to them and they wanted me happy. They accomplished this in one day! I will tell you that Donny, Tracy and Greg went above and beyond to deliver my beautiful new RX to me and meeting all my expectations. Maria in Customer Relations is very Professional and followed up very closely to be certain we ended up with the outcome that met the high standards of McGrath Lexus. This was the second vehicle I have purchased from McGrath Lexus and I HIGHLY recommend them. You will not find a higher level of service anywhere. Bob in customer delivery is fantastic! He spent a lot 0f time with me so I could drive away understanding all the impressive features I have and knowing how to use them. This is clouded setting ip 36 radio channels, syncing my iPhone,setting the mirrors and much more. Ask for Bob when you are ready to take your new vehicle home.

My family has relied on Joe's help and expertise for several years and we have never been let down. Joe takes the time to make sure you have a smooth experience and I would recommend his advice to anyone looking to buy a new or used car! My family knows that we will leave with a safe and affordable vehicle every time with his help!

We have not one complaint! Very professional, helpful, and the process was quite quick and streamlined. They went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect with our purchase, including buying us lunch while a small smudge was buffed out prior to us leaving the building. We've never felt so confident with such a purchase. We will definitely return for our next car.

I must admit, this is my second purchase from McGrath Lexus and my experiences have been fabulous, each and every time Justin has displayed patience with me throughout the car buying process and made the transition smooth for me. Everyone in McGrath is friendly and makes sure are taken care of without hesitation. I will be a returning customer again and again.

Everyone was very helpful and professional. I needed to make a change in the car I leased and Christi helped me make this happen, even bringing a different vehicle to my home for me to drive. I felt that my ultimate satisfaction with the car was important to the dealership, which I appreciated. The in-car training was very detailed and helpful.

Gary took the stress out of car buying. This was the best car buying experience we have ever had. Our sales representative was professional and answered all of our questions. He went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and well taken care of during the whole experience. We would recommend this dealership to anyone looking for a new or used car, I know we will buy from McGrath Lexus of Westmont again! The dealership itself was extremely clean and everyone was dressed professionally, it had a welcoming feeling from the moment you walked in. We are extremely pleased with our new car and the whole car buying experience.

Before the contract was signed salesmen were very diligent and attentive, however once sale was complete the car was delivered to me with a piece missing, partially cleaned and out of gas. When I asked for missing air condition vent clip his response was this is how it was when you bought it, there is nothing I can do. The piece was there before the "cleaning." I lost trust in dealership and feel like once the sale was made we are on our own. I had planned on referring all my coworkers interested in the car, but his sorry your out of luck attitude was unexpected and disappointing. My son in law was with me and wanted to buy a SUV but when he saw the attitude for a missing a/c clip he didn't trust dealership to be honest or reliable. He said he will not buy it from this location and was sad a Lexus dealership has this poor service policy.

We went by a car yesterday we knew we wanted in ES 350 Lexus the only problem is we didn't know what year we want it, I could not make up my mind. That's OK though because Joseph Scala was our salesman he has the patience of a saint, not pushy at all very easy-going didn't rush us at all, best experience I've ever had buying a car. My husband and I couldn't be happier ??

I cannot say enough positives about the dealer. The staff is friendly, courteous, and helpful in every way possible.This is a Lexus dealership, but I was there to buy a good reliable preowned vehicle.I never once felt like I was treated differently even though I was certainly spending less than many of their customers.I would highly recommend them for both your new and used purchases.

We recently bought a used Lexus RX 350-very good condition certified car with low mileage, good brakes and tires. The service was really good from the time we started interacting with joe to the time we pulled off the car from the dealership. Both Joe and Bob were very nice and no nonsense folks. We travelled from Memphis TN to buy RX 350 and Joe was a great salesman to accommodate our needs and criteria for the car. They weren't any dirty sales tactics used. We were very happy and impressed by the service. Bob was very informative and helpful for guiding us the functionalities of the car. Thank you guys! We are very happy and satisfied with our purchase!Mansi Gadi

Joe Scala, my salesman was excellent! It was my very first car buying experience. My dad took me in to meet Joe Scala this past Saturday morning. Joe spent alot of quality time making sure I had the right car for my very first car. I had told Joe how I needed a SUV type of car for all of my softball equipment that I need to have with me. He picked out the very best cars for me to look at. I ultimately found a Lexus that I totally love! Mr. Scala then showed me how to use my car by spending time showing me all the different options and features that the car had.I am so happy!!I would highly recommend Joe Scala if you need a quality used car.Courtney K.

I read a lot of the reviews listed below, and cannot believe we are talking about the same dealership. I found my 2009 Honda Accord on line and travelled the 25 miles to get there. I was treated well by my salesman, who let me take the car out for a second test drive alone. This helped seal the deal. Mike in financing was a really nice guy who helped get me the deal I needed. I was more than happy with the whole experience, and Got a fantastic car in the process.

I've bought at least 30 cars over the years. I've never had better sales and service experiences than the ones I've had at McGrath. My daughter just turned 16 and she bought her first car; a pre-owned 2009 RX. They took the time to find the car that fit all of her wants and needs within her budget. They also took extra time to teach her what is important to know as a car buyer, from a dealers perspective. I can't imagine buying a car anywhere else.

The important things to look for in a car dealership are: honesty, value, and service. McGrath Lexus of Westmont delivers all of that and so much more. It starts with their GM, Tracy Isselhardt, and caries trough everyone I've met there. You're treated more like a guest than a customer. The sales people, like Casey Baca, are smart and caring. Their approach is not just to make the sale today, they want you to have a great experience so you'll be a happy customer for life. The service people make a point of knowing your name and saying hello when they see you. I would never buy a car anywhere else.

McGrath Lexus really exceeded my expectations in both the sales and services they provided. Joe Scala did a great job at finding me just the perfect car. I called him up looking for a CPO Black 2012 Lexus GX460 with low mileage. To my surprise he informed me that he had one that was just traded in. He called me frequently giving me updates on the status of the car and we easily settled on a price that was a win-win for everyone! Joe is the ultimate sales professional. I would totally recommend Joe and his team.

The dealership came back with an offer at the beginning that was pretty off to me. When I explained my trade in should be worth more, Justin went and talked to the manager. He came back right away with a much better offer. He was professional and courteous the entire time we were there. After we purchased, he even helped me get things out of my old car and into the new one pointing out all the hidden places that people usually forget to take things out, like the sunglasses holder. We had a great experience at this dealership!

As a recent college grad and first time car buyer, I walked into the dealership extremely overwhelmed. Joe Scala greeted me and took the time to figure out what I wanted in a car and what was feasible given my budget. He was more than willing to meet with numerous of my family members in order to help me make the right decision. Joe was honest and extremely attentive. He truly cared that I got a great car at a fair price. I now have my car in Texas and he even went out of his way to introduce me to the owner of the Dallas dealershipIm thousand of miles away and hes still beyond helpful. Go see Joe!

My experience working with the McGrath Lexus team would be described as First Class. Glenn Keeler and Joe Scala were both professional, respectful, and courteous throughout my car purchase. They were responsive to support my schedule when I was ready to move ahead with the purchase of the car. The McGrath Lexus team was respectful of my time schedule expediting the purchase process, but also taking the time to thoroughly explain each feature of the car.

Was not happy with my local Lexus dealer so started looking online to purchase an L/Certified IS250 AWD for my wife. Found a few, contacted McGrath Lexus about a car they had online. My son (who is a car salesman) did the negotiations over the phone with Joe Scala and agreed on a price. I took a train 150 miles to buy and pickup the car and then drive it home. Joe had a McGrath employee pick me up at the train station and take me to the dealership. We did the paperwork, Bob Cowden spent as much time as I needed to show me all the car does and off I went. PAINLESS. McGrath is my new Lexus dealer and Joe is my salesmen. Will call Bob whenever I can't figure out to do something. Super Happy with the experience.

Justin Storandt raised the bar on our expectations. Even while waiting, he let us know, step-by-step we were being cared for. His kindness and patience made us feel so comfortable, as if we were with family. He walked us through on every detail, answered every question and made our experience fun and enjoyable. We never once felt pressured. Justin is not just a "sales person" he is a valuable, caring and honest associate and we have already recommended him highly! Thank you Justin!

Within the past year and a half, I had visited a wide range of car dealerships with the hope of trying to pinpoint the right vehicle for my needs. Jeff Walker answered all of my questions and concerns; he provided me with his vast knowledge and professionalism, and by far exceeded my expectations of what a salesman and a dealership should provide. That is why I am recommending my friends and family to see Jeff Walker at McGrath Lexus when they are in the market to purchase their next vehicle.

I found a car online that I wanted to see. Justin promptly reached out to me to discuss the car and also sent additional research information to support the answers he provided to one of my main concerns. In addition I appreciated how accessible Justin was and continues to be though this process. I didn't feel pressed to make a decision immediately but I did feel like Justin was there to assist me in getting exactly what I wanted. I couldn't be more happy with my purchase and if anyone is in the market for a Lexus I'll refer them to Justin. When I get my next one, I know I'll go to this dealer and ask for Justin!

Walked in a little unsure of the dealership as we were looking at a used car that my daughter found advertised on their site which will be taken out of state. Met Joe. He is GREAT. Really took fabulous care of her and we couldn't be happier. Joe called the owner of the out of state dealership to introduce her and ask that they give her extra attention should she ever have a need. Will definitely recommend Joe and will deal with him in the future. Took great comfort in the Lexus Used Car Certification.

Have done business twice with a competitor Lexus dealer and have not been satisfied. Decided to give McGrath a try primarily because Joe Scala had been very helpful with inquiries I had for cars I was interested in over the past few months bit did not purchase. Joe was always very helpful and professional with my requests and so paid a visit on Saturday to make a purchase with Joe if the deal worked for me. Bottom line, Joe did not disappoint and I walked away with a beautiful certified RX350 at a fair negotiated price without undue hassle or the usual back and forth. Joe made it clear he wanted my business and didn't want me to leave without buying the car I wanted. Throughout the whole process Joe was professional, informative, friendly and never made it seem like we were adversaries but instead was only interested in seeing that he could do what was necessary to make a sale that I would be happy with. And that is exactly what Joe did. It was indeed a pleasure buying the car with Joe. He is the consummate professional. Also want to extend the highest compliments to Mike Agnello in Finance who was top notch and an absolute pleasure to work with and talk to. McGrath will be getting all of my future service and car buying needs.

I worked with Joe Scala, and he was very professional and helpful. We purchased the vehicle sight unseen, other than the many photos that were on the website. Joe was very helpful in answering any questions that I had, and sent me any add'l photos requested. He was very honest and gave us a fair deal. It was well worth the 4 hour drive to get the vehicle. He also filled up the car with gas and bought us lunch. He had the paperwork ready to ensure a speedy process. We could not have asked for a better experience. Call Joe if you are looking for a vehicle - you will not be disappointed!

We called one day, made an appointment and then had our car the following night. Joe was very easy and knowledgable to work with. He made our purchase reassuring and we felt good leaving the dealership. Also, Ben gave us an hour tour of our car, making sure that we knew every function and whistle that it could do. He allowed us to test parts of the car and added or phones as well. They also had toys for my daughter to play with while we tested and talked about the car. It made the two hours for her go by very fast and easy! :)

Let me start by saying that I have never written a review (either positive or negative) for anything that I have purchased, but the outstanding customer service that I received while buying my first Lexus from McGrath deserves special recognition. From the moment my wife and I walked in looking for a certified / pre-owned RX350, Joe Scala took great care of us. Very professional and courteous and found us the exact car that we wanted. Joe worked with us on a fair price and agreed to handle a few service items with the car. If you are looking for a Lexus, no need to call anyone else.Mike Connery made the paperwork portion of the sale painless and didn't try to push any extras during the process like other dealers do. Ben Kruchten did an awesome job explaining every single feature of the car before I left.Overall, a great experience.

From the very first call to the title transfer, Glenn Ginther made my car purchase very simple. He was cordial, professional, and friendly. I drove into town from 6 hours away, showed up at the dealership around 2pm and was out the door in my 2014 LS460 F-Sport in 3 hours. Glenn has also been very helpful with the title transfer. He remained very easy to contact and returns calls and emails promptly. I also found Bob Cowden's intro to Lexus' tech platform extremely valuable. He laid down the foundation and had a humorous spin on his tutorial. Mike Connery handled the financial papework and was every friendly and professional as well. An overall excellent experience with McGrath Lexus of Westmont with the help of Glenn Ginther.Thanks Gentlemen,Robert S.

For the past thirteen years I've had my car maintained (serviced) at McGrath Lexus in Westmont, IL. It's always been an excellent place where I feel very confident in my service rep, Paul Tuffner, andenjoy the inviting atmosphere provided by the Lux Cafe's proprietor, Melissa Hoffman, (who opened it,to the delight of the McGrath patrons a few years ago). Believe it or not, I actually LOOK FORWARD to visiting my McGrath Service Center whenever it'snecessary, (or for occasional complimentary car washes!). It's a pleasure being with the friendly,knowledgeable, and welcoming people like Paul and Melissa. As my title states: "I WOULDN'T GOANYWHERE ELSE!"

Tracy Isselhardt and Joe Scala are men of their word. I discussed a vehicle they had on their lot prior to visiting the dealership and not only was the vehicle exactly what they described to me over the phone, but so to was the price and execution of the purchase including my trade-in. Greg Luzinski in the finance department had my wife and I in and out of financing in a matter of 15 minutes!I highly recommend these men and this dealership to anyone that wants white glove service and a no hassle/bs car buying experience. I will refer them often, and look forward to purchasing my next vehicle from Tracy and Joe at McGrath Lexus of Westmont!Steve K. ~ Elmhurst, IL

I recently bought a 2015 Lexus 350 Sports edition from Peter Mangano. He was very knowledgeable about all Lexus models and which one would be best for what I needed. Safety was a concern along with gas mileage and traction the winter months. I wanted a no hassle buying experience and that is what I received. Pete was a true professional and worked with me to find a brand new car within my budget. I will always use Peter in the future and trust he and Lexus will take care of me.

I went into Lexus of McGrath after I had done my research on Pre-Owned Sales Staff Members. All of the reviews that I went through had the customers talk about the positive experience that they had while working with Rita Barkstrom. After having purchased my Certified Lexus from her, I understand why the reviews were so positive. Working with Rita was a great experience, I never felt pressured to buy the car, and she was very knowledgeable about the cars and services that were offered. She introduced me to many different people who were able to answer questions I had about wheel locks and window tinting. She was always asking if I was ok, and if I was thirsty or hungry. She was such a pleasure to work with, and I am so glad that I bought my first Lexus from her. I will absolutely recommend her to all of my friends and colleagues if they are in the market for a Lexus. Thanks again Rita. The experience was really great!

Paul Tuffner at McGrath treated me like a long time friend. I was traveling from my home in Alabama to Chicago and needed service while staying in Westmont, IL. Although we had never met Paul took care of my need as though I was his lifelong customer and friend. I highly recommend McGrath Lexus and especially Paul for all of your service and sales needs in the Chicago area.

I went to McGrath Lexus with the hopes of trading in my BMW M3. I recently was promoted at work and because of this now had an 80 mile a day round trip. The pain at the pump on my M3 was killing me and ideally, I wanted to lower my payment. Though the odds were stacked against me. Joe Scala worked tirelessly and dedicated his entire Saturday to me. Joe treated me like he would treat his own son. He showed me some options and was so honest with me about everything. We finally decided on a 2012 IS250 that was Lexus Certified and had next to no miles on it. Joe really took care of me and told me he was going to give me a 6 year, 125k mile bumper to bumper warranty PLUS 2 years no maintenance. Unbelievable. Joe immediately took the Lexus to a rock bottom price and gave me top dollar for my trade. I've never been treated with so much respect in my life. I then met with Mike Agnello in finance who went ABOVE AND BEYOND the call of duty to make nothing short of a miracle happen. He ended up lowering my payment drastically without me haggling one bit. He included so many perks for me, my head was spinning. I know I got the deal of a lifetime because of Joe and Mike. I certainly did not buy a $95,000 car like many of their customers do, but I was treated the exact same as those customers which really blew me away. McGrath is lucky to have both Joe and Mike. They gained a customer for life. I can't think of many situations where I can say I traded out of a car that was 7 years old with almost 80k miles on it INTO what is basically a brand new Lexus and lowered my payment. If you go anywhere else in the Chicagoland area for a luxury car, you're doing yourself a disservice. Hands down the best car buying experience I've ever had. I can't wait to be able to thank Joe and Mike in person every Saturday when I'm getting my free car washes! Top notch across the board!!!!!

I have worked with Joe Scala for over 15 years and he has always delivered exactly what he said he would do. I have bought Mercedes and Lexus from him. As he says I always get his family discount probably because he knows I am married to a Sicilian.As long he is at McGrath I am coming back. He recently did an amazing trade for my son who was really upside down in his car and still was able to lower his payment with no money out of pocket. Amazing RS

What we shopped for: Lexus AWD GS 350Dealerships we shopped: Lexus of Naperville, Lexus of Orland, Woodfield Lexus, & McGrath Lexus of WestmontWhy we chose McGrath Lexus of Westmont: Peter Mangano was up front with us and treated us fairly. No BS, no sales pitch here. The whole car buying process was time-efficient. The rest of the dealerships either took too long to get back to us with a written quote, too salesy, and played a bait n' switch game with us. One where they gave us a really low price just to get us in the door, then change the prices once we got there. A time waster! I can't believe that is still happening in 2015. Overall, I'll be back to McGrath Lexus and can comfortably refer Peter Mangano to my friends and family.

Justin was easy to work with and made my car buying experience smooth. He was professional and did his best to meet my needs. Mike Connery was great at walking me step by step through the financing process. I would definitely purchase from this dealer again! Love my new RX!!!

This was by far the best customer service I have had in my life, Rita Barkstrom went above and beyond to make my experience THE BEST. Not only did she provide AAA customer service she is also very knowledgeable about the products she sales and is always available to answer any and all of my questions. Thanks for the experience;)

Joe Scala was very professional and helpful with the purchase of my Lexus RX350. I did not feel like I was given a sales pitch and he was very meticulous in his follow up. He treated me like family: respectful, honest and caring. I came to Joe on a recommendation from a friend and I would recommend him full heartedly.

I have wanted a Lexus 200h for a few years. Every time I saw one on the street I would stop and enquire with the owner. I knew one day that I would own one. That day has come and the Men of McGrath Lexus (I'm absolutely sure the women as well but I was aligned to work with the men on this go around) maid my experience comfortable, seamless, and fun! Mel Owens is completely knowledable about the Lexus Brand. Mel confidently walked me through the process of what was going to happen point by point. (ladies, I was alone buying a car and felt at ease!) Mel explained that if the sales process continued past the current night that he would be out of town until the following week. Mel then introduced me to Jeff Walker. Jeff was warm and friendly and assured me that he would aid me with any questions that I may have in the absence of Mel Owens. That made me happy! Once Mel found me the perfect car he in introduced me to Michel Connery, "the Finance Guy"...dun dun dunnnnn! Nope! There was no fear at all with Mr. Connery. I was able to be open and honest with Mike and we were able to structure a payment that fit with in my budget. Tom Christensen greeted me with a warm smile and a stainless steel coffee mug that I am super excited about. My delivery session with Ben Kruchten was informative and fun. Ben's open door attitude gave me the comfort in knowing that I can email him at any point with questions and concerns. I am truly expressed with McGrath Lexus of Westmont. The customer service is top notch!

I went in looking for one of the new IS250's and was helped by Christi. Christi was great to work with and made the process so easy! During the test drive she was super helpful in discussing all of the great features of the IS, and back at the dealer she was great to work with as we finalized the deal. She was able to make the deal work for me, which was great, and for being a busy Saturday, she was able to get me through the process quickly!I definitely recommend McGrath Lexus in Westmont, as they go above and beyond to make their customers feel comfortable and in control of the buying process.

My husband and I were looking for a pre-owned SUV and we stopped in to McGrath Lexus after hearing good things from others about the place. We had Casey Baca as our sales associate and she was such a straight shooter and very fair and friendly through out the entire process. Casey actually made buying a used car (normally something we do not enjoy doing) a very easy and hassle free process! Thank you Casey and McGrath Lexus (Tracy Isselhardt was awesome as well!)--we will recommend you to others without hesitation!

McGrath Lexus made buying 2 cars at one time easier than buying a new cell phone.We literally could have walked out with both cars in one afternoon except for the fact that they had to locate the cars we wanted. Within 48 hours of getting the details of the cars we wanted, they located them and then had them in the lot cleaned and prepped for us to pick up.The whole experience with the Mcgrath team was excellent, from walking in the door to driving out of the lot, Even the grill cheese that the cafe made for Daniel, Sandras son, while he waited for us to finish the owner orientation was perfect!

Greg went above and beyond to do everything he could for us. He was very polite and accommodating . We could not be happier with our new truck or with Greg or JJ. We have recommended him several times since December ! He even got me my big red now for my Christmas sales event to remember!! And he seems very trust worthy and not like a typical salesman !!!

It was time to get out of my old BMW and into something newer and more reliable. I had done quite a bit of research and my expectations for Lexus were high. I would be visiting Audi, Infinity, BMW, and Honda over the weekend but was sure I'd find what I was looking for at Lexus. I had inquired about a particular model online and immediately had a call back, as well as a text and an email from Scott. Great follow up. All expectations were met...until I got to the dealership. Upon walking in the place appeared warm and inviting - the water wall and the cafe were a nice touch. But the people seemed cold and unfriendly. We didn't feel welcome. Even Scott didn't seem too interested in finding us a car that we really wanted. After test driving a couple of bombs, we drove away in disbelief vowing to never return or recommend McGrath Lexus. Amazing to think that just across the street there's a dealership that was excited to see us, work with us and put us in our beautiful new Infinity. Attitude is everything.

Although I have driven a RX 350 for many years and have been happy with the product, my husband and I were considering switching to either a BMW X3 or 5 when we met with our salesman, Peter Mangano. We were pleasantly surprised that he did not take this information as an opportunity to pressure us. He was at all times gracious and pleasant to deal with. He had great product knowledge and was very accommodating (he even offered to come in on his day off). When we did decide to lease another RX, the purchase/lease process was made very easy and relatively painless. Peter was very efficient and moved things along quickly. Bob Crowden made getting educated on all the intricacies of operating the car (from where to store the bulky manual to how and when to adjust gears to receiving text messages) very enjoyable, as he has a great sense of humor. And, finally, Mike Agnello in finance was also efficient, knowledgeable and very pleasant to deal with. We would highly recommend McGrath and Peter Mangano to anyone considering a Lexus.

My wife has had a Lexus for years and I have been impressed with the car and service. So I walked in to McGrath and Justin Strorandt walked up and gave me an impressive run down on why I should purchase a GS 350 F Sport.. He was knowledgeable, and made the purchase a seamless one.Everyone in the operation was extremely friendly and helpful throughout the purchase and delivery of the vehicle.I would recommend this dealership to everyone I know who is looking to purchase a Lexus.Keep up the great work!!

My daughter wanted to buy a Lexus and within a few hours she was driving her new car! Our salesman, Joe Scala, was amazing and made buying a car very fun and stress free! He didn't pressure us and we felt as if we knew each other for years. Mike in the finance dept. was just as amazing. We went through the process very easily and had a great conversation. By the time I was leaving I wanted to buy a Lexus!!! Thanks to everyone for a great experience.

Never greeted or approached by any salesperson even after becoming the only customer still looking, They where too busy talking to each other. We have previously purchased cars there but now are so disappointed on what this dealership has become. We where also there in December and when it was apparent that our minds where not made up to purchase that day our sale man diisappeared. This wasn't the first snub but it will surely be the last!

Although I had only gone to look at a vehicle, Rita, Jim & Mike made it so easy, I ended up leaving with one that night. Rita was welcoming and allowed me to test drive the car I was looking at with relative ease. Some dealers really love to talk your ear off during the test drive, really taking your attention away from the vehicle. Thankfully, Rita had just the right amount to say during the drive, allowing me to take note of the IS F's enjoyable engine note.Once it came down to the financial nitty gritty, Rita and Jim made it a quick and easy process. Some dealerships love to take hours out of your day just to "talk it over". Rita and Jim had a few short conversations before Jim then talked with me directly and was able to come to an agreement about price. Couldn't have been easier than that.Mike in the finance department and I had a great conversation and I didn't feel pressured by anything while my finance paperwork was filled out. Although the electronic system was having an issue, Mike was happy to recreate the process by hand, quickly and efficiently. This was a great experience.All around, the process of buying a vehicle could not have been better. If you're in the area (or even don't mind driving a bit further for a great experience), I recommend McGrath Lexus of Westmont. While you're there, ask for Rita, I promise you'll have a great experience!

I initially worked with Glen who usually does used car sales. He was so intuitive he directed me to the car of my dreams in 10 minutes, in the correct color too!Jimmy, the manager was so nice that he even paid for my car rental when I had a totaled car.

Jan 21, 2015
We did a lot of research on the internet looking for a used car. Found what we were looking for on the internet and it happened to be at this dealer. Made an appointment to look at the car and take a test drive. The car had been on their lot for a few weeks. We drove over an hour and an half to get there from the north suburbs. This was a Wednesday. Liked the car and put down a deposit. Financing was going to be through someone else. The dealer faxed the Bill of Sale, but left off the deposit. Our lending institution couldn't process the paperwork until they received the corrected Bill of Sale. Talked to the used car sales manager and he said he would rectify the issue. It didn't happen. We made plans to return and finish the deal the following Monday evening. The salesman contacted us Monday morning to verify we would be in later that day. We confirmed we would. We received a call about an hour later notifying us the used car manager sold it to someone else. Now, we had put money down in good faith, trusting that McGrath Lexus would honor the deposit and hold the car for us. We found out that that deposit didn't really mean anything. We got our deposit back, and also received a bad experience with McGrath Lexus of Westmont.

I had the pleasure of speaking with Mr. Mel Owens, who was very professional and understanding of my needs. The General Manager, Mr Tracy Isselhart had did everything possible to meet my needs. These two gentlement could not of been more courteous and professional. This experience has made me a permenant and dedicated customer of McGrath Lexus of Westmont Il.

For us buying a car is once in few years big-ticket purchase. With the negotiation process involved and the fact that limited market transparency exists for a true value of a used car, we knew that we will not always have a good experience going through it. However, our experience at Lexus McGrath of Westmont was very positive. My Sales Consultant, Casey Baca, was very professional and trustful throughout the process. She appreciated my research and was patient with my vetting process as it involved taking a select cars out for a test drive for an extended period of time to get it inspected by the mechanic I trust. She answered all of my questions with no hesitation and made my buying experience very easy. I experienced a great service overall. Thank you Casey in making our purchase experience with Lexus a great one!

If you are looking for a calm, stress free, no hassle car buying experience then visit Justin at McGrath Lexus. He is down-to-earth but listens to what you have to say.

McGrath Lexus of Westmont is the benchmark where the genuine care and comfort of their guests is their highest priority. McGrath exemplifies family, courtesy, and the finest personal service. My parents and my wife and I have received the best car for the best price because of Joe Scala at McGrath Lexus of Westmont. Joe is someone you can trust as he has every customers best interest at heart to make not only the process simple and easy, but experience great. You wont find anywhere better than McGrath Lexus of Westmont and anyone better to work with than Joe Scala. My wife and I want to thank McGrath Lexus and Joe Scala for our new car and look forward to purchasing another Lexus in the near future.

You could see it all over the customers faces in the store. Thank you Tracy, Jim, Justin and Mike. you really made Jennie and I happy. Eddie

My husband and I stopped in the dealership to look at the used RX350s. Justin Storandt approached us in the dealer's lot and quickly helped us find the right RX350. He was easy to work with, professional and friendly, making the whole process mostly stress-free. Justin and the staff at McGrath Lexus were very attentive to our needs throughout the entire sales process, right through taking care of the trade-in process to walking us through the technical aspects of our new vehicle. I had to return to the dealership a couple of days later for a minor service issue. Justin directed me to the service area, and afterwards made sure all issues with the car were resolved. I would recommend this dealership.

Lexus is a great car, so you expect the same from certified dealer, but unfortunately after two attempts to buy a new car only bad memories and unpleasant experience was received from McGrath Lexus of Westmont. Specially from sales person Marian Jones who was not listening to our needs, got mad and kicked us out just because we did not agree to get a vehicle witch was totally different that we wanted. It is sad that unprofessional people gives you unpleasant feeling totally opposite from the car itself.

I went to McGrath Lexus to look at a car I had previously seen online. We met Justin Storandt, was very nice and amicable. In a matter of minutes, we were test driving the vehicle. I never felt Justin was pushy. We went over the details and we decided to buy the car. We waited to speak to Mike Agnello from the finance department. Once we were inside with Mike, the process was smooth. Mike was very efficient and friendly. He got us of out there in 20-30 minutes. I was very pleased with the overall experience. Thanks to both Justin and Mike. Great team.

First experience with McGrath and live 1 1/2 hours away. I saw an RX 350 that I liked on line and called and was connected to Joe Scala. Joe was very professional and pleasant to deal with. He handled every detail from beginning to end and did everything he said he would do. I trusted Joe to advise me about the condition of the Certified RX 350 I was looking at. I arrived and was not disappointed. Joe made this the best car purchase experience I have every had and there have been many. The entire process flowed smoothely and all the people we dealt with were top notch.

Bought a used car Oct 2013. My salesman G.F promised to get me the missing 2nd Key and perform some repairs in the interior. Since then i called multiple times most of them with no reply. The last time i called and he answer the phone he told me that he did not forget and he is working on it he actually acted insulted when I implied that he lied to me. Its been 10 months from the date i bought the car and i am still waiting.

I am SO very pleased with my car buying experience. Justin answered all of my questions (and I had many.) He made himself available and even helped me on his off time. No pressure, Justin let the car sell itself. He is a truly nice human being and wants the best for his customers. I WILL be back, and I have been spreading the word. It was definitely worth the 1 hour drive from WI! P.S. I really LOVE my CT hybrid!!!

From the moment we walked in and met our salesman Justin the entire experience at McGrath Lexus of Westmont was wonderful. Justin didn't try to rush us, which I really appreciated after dealing with some not so nice sales people at other dealerships. The GM Tracy Isselhardt even took the time to check in with us a couple of times to make sure we were having a good experience. We ended up getting a RX450 Hybrid and couldn't be happier with our decision. Greg in finance was also very helpful in explaining the details to our deal and the Certified option we went with. I have to say this was the most easygoing car buying experience ever. I have already recommended this dealership and the sales people I worked with to my friends and family.

Since I lease, I go car shopping every 3-4 years. Often enough that I want the experience to go as quickly and as easily FOR ME as possible. Well Steve Stover, Bob Cowden, Greg Luzinski, and everyone over at McGrath Lexus of Westmont just completely re-defined what that means to me. I found out THEY wanted it to be quick and easy for me too! We handled everything via emails, phone calls and a single visit to the dealer to pick up the new car. No surprises, just in and out in an hour! That's right - ONE HOUR - and that's only because Bob Cowden made sitting and learning about my new car so entertaining!This is one elite operation that has won my business for years to come. Nothing compares to working with knowledgeable professionals that just "get it".

I recently (4/24/14) went to look at the new Lexus IS at Lexus of Westmont. I talked to Steve Stover, who knew what equates to "too much" about the new IS. And that's not a bad thing. I asked him multiple questions and even tried to stump him a few times, and he knew the all the answers right away. Steve had gotten me a great price right away, and in my mind, I was ready to buy, but the wife wanted a cheaper payment. So Steve let me go home and talk to my wife to work out the little details with her. Steve never once was pushy, or rude because I was leaving without buying the car that day. He had patience, and I will always remember and appreciate that. So when I finally went back, and Lexus and I both were happy with the numbers, there was no chance I wasn't going to buy the car from them. So I did indeed buy the car, and I couldn't be happier. Jimmy Tran in the finance department worked closely with Steve and myself to make sure everything was perfect. Everything about my experience was an A+ rating. An added bonus is they have a new, big dollar carwash that's free to use, everyday. I pay $8.95 at my local wash 1-2 times a week, so this is an incredible bonus for me. Really great place to work with. I highly suggest buying from them. I also suggest to try to find Steve, and working with him. He made me feel like we were friends, and not a salesman and buyer.

My experience with McGrath Lexus of Westmont was outstanding and Id recommend my sales rep (Justin Storandt) to anyone thats interested in a straight forward, informative, and customer service oriented sales process. The person in charge of this dealership clearly runs a top level operation as every detail beginning at the front door and ending with finance was exceptional. Going forward, I will only deal with Justin and/or McGrath Lexus of Westmont.

I started out my car buying research in November. Never bought a Lexus before but I always shop all dealers, models and prices before making a final decision. I went to the Lexus dealer and meet with Steve. No pressure, we discussed cars and then I left. A few days later I made a decision to buy my first Lexus RX350 from McGrath. My experience with Steve was the best in 35 years of car buying. He is with you from start to finish and very patient. By the end of the car buying experience you think of Steve as somebody you can trust and will want to do business with again.

Steve was professional and hands on throughout the process. He kept us abreast to the delivery of our vehicle and made sure we were handled properly from test drive through delivery. McGrath has it figured out with going through every detail when you purchase a car. They do many things other dealers should learn. They insure a buyer is comfortable with the ins and outs of the vehicle, and the way the group gets you through financing and into your new vehicle is pretty seamless. We will recommend them to our friends and I would recommend Steve to anyone that is looking for a new vehicle.

I recently purchased a Corvette Z06 off of EBay. The dealer was McGrath Lexus of Westmont. My contact person at the dealership was Greg Luzinski. I was very hesitant purchasing a vehicle sight unseen. I spoke with Greg on numerous occasions about the car. Greg was totally honest with me and saw too it that all I asked for was completed on the car. Long story short, the car was much better than described! I flew into Chicago, took deliver of the car and drove it home. The whole experience was much better than I had anticipated. I would buy a vehicle from Greg again without any hesitation.

I was in the market for a RX 350 and wanted a sales consultant that was patient, attentive, and engaged in my purchasing experience. This is exactly what I found in Rita Barkstrom. Rita has a wonderful way of making each of her clients feel valued and important. She is punctual with appointments, quickly responds to emails and phone calls and goes out of her way to ensure that client needs are met. Rita made the entire purchasing process feel easy. She took time to explain things to me and ensured I felt comfortable with other McGrath employees that would assist in the final details of the purchase. Rita is a person of her word. She ensured me that shed help me find a vehicle that met my needs, in the time frame I requested while adhering to my price point. Im happy to report, she over delivered! I would gladly recommend McGrath & Rita to anyone looking to purchase a new vehicle. I am very happy with my new RX 350.

I am very new to the Midwest, and Greg at McGrath Lexus was a pleasure to do business with. What started out as an internet sale, turned out to be a pleasant dealership experience. I had Lexus IS250 trade-in, and purchased a new body style IS250. It had been several years since I last purchased a car, and Greg answered all my questions and was very responsive, even responding to my emails after 10pm over the weekend. The entire team at McGrath Lexus was very easy to deal with, not to mention that the dealership was one of the largest, most high-tech dealerships I've ever been to (I've gotten my car serviced in Montreal, New England and Houston). I would recommend Greg and the team to anyone looking to purchase a new vehicle.

This was the best experience I have had buying a car. Greg Luzinski was friendly, professional and went beyond in making sure we were completely satisfied with our purchase. He also made sure we were taken care of from the minute we entered until I drove away in my new SUV rather than handing us off to the next person and moving on to the next customer. Ben was also patient and thorough in explaining the features to me. We look forward to doing more business with Greg and that is rare for someone who does not enjoy the process of buying a new vehicle. Well done McGrath Lexus!

I called Scott to inquire about Lexus automobiles... Having owned a BMW which was an awful experience, I was looking for a different brand. I purchased a RX450h from Scott, have been driving it for a month, and have returned to McGrath Lexus for car washes and after purchase assistance - every time I go there I tell more and more people about how great Scott and the team are.First of all, if you're considering a luxury car - get a Lexus. Everything from the way it handles, to the amenities, to the smallest details - you won't be disappointed. Second of all, if you're going to buy a Lexus - go see Scott at McGrath in Westmont, IL. See Scott. He will ensure you get the car you want, at a great price - and he's really committed to his customers far after the sale is over. I have to say - 90% of the reason I'm writing this review is because of how well they have treated me LONG after the sale was made. They are truly earning a customer for life. If I had to buy another car today - there's only one place I would go. Back to McGrath - straight to Scott's desk.The entire team there is incredibly accommodating. From the buying process with Scott and Eric - to the finance manager - to the entire service team. The buying experience was great - but the service afterwards is even better! McGrath has thought out every detail. 1. When you pull in - the team welcomes you instantly. 2. They have a complimentary car wash any time you want to spiff up the car.3. They have a great full-service cafe while you wait, including blended mochas, to fresh sandwiches, soup and fresh baked cookies.4. There's people everywhere - you won't have to wait anywhere for service... They are always ready to greet and assist.5. The service team is genuinely welcoming and happy to have you pulling in. 6. The follow up to ensure you get impeccable service after the sale is great. 7. They have a staging area just for their customers when the car is complete - you even get a beeper when it's done. 8. They go the extra mile - every single time - any problem is NO problem to the team. They are on it. The closest thing I can compare their dealership to is a spa. When you're there, you're welcomed, you're the focus, and they want to make every visit a great one. Thank you to everyone over at McGrath... Especially Scott. I may have a brand new car - but I already know where I'm buying my next one.-WGN

I came in to McGrath Westmont to test drive an SUV. Mr. Raymond knew my exact purpose due to purchasing a vehicle the following week. From the moment I met him, he did not have an attitude that made me feel like a valued customer. As a prior luxury sales consultant, I knew all the tricks and cues and the experience as a whole was just terrible. I was just given the keys and told to come find him when I get back. He told me that he would pull the vehicle to the front so I could stay warm, he did not, he walked me to the door and said "it's right there" and he left, it would have been nice to have stepped into a warm car in the evening of my visit. I always appreciate the time alone with a car without a consultant talking the entire time, usually asking me a bunch of personal questions in order for them to make the sale or playing with gadetry which further annoys me, however, I will request that time alone, you just don't give it to me! I liked the vehicle a lot and the price was fair, I was willing to negotiate a delivery that same day or the following days, however, when I walked back into the showroom, he was on his phone and barely bothered to look up at me, handed me my drivers license and did not bother to even say good bye. He did not give me his business card and when I requested it, he gave it to me with an attitude WHILE he was still on the phone as if he did not want to do business with me once I received my license back. Lastly, he made a sarcastic remark upon me entering the showroom to find him, "You must've liked the vehicle a lot huh?". I took the traditional westmont test drive route (west on ogden to cass, left on cass to 35th, merged on to kingery hwy south, back down ogden heading west). I was back at the showroom in 10 minutes tops, I sat in the same place I got the vehicle (surveillance cameras will verify), for at least 15-20 minutes as I further checked out the vehicle, alone, without anyone there to answer any questions should I have had any, which I did have a few. I saw Scott rushing to the west showroom door while on his cell phone as if he was in a panic that the vehicle was stolen and once he saw the vehicle was there, instead of coming outside, he turned back around. It almost felt as if he did not want to come outside in the cold.Bottom line, this was like a similiar incident that happened with McGrath Lexus Westmont when I was purchasing an 06-06 Lexus LS430 and I was doing my shopping and an older gentleman realized that I was not purchasing anything that day and was doing my comparison shopping and the older gentleman lacked patience and had a bad attitude and did not speak or provide a great customer experience, I wound up purchasing the LS430 elsewhere where I received better customer service and in fact wound up paying for $1000 more for the same car with the same packages and miles. I've noticed over time with the few visits to McGrath Westmont over the years, if no one has the intent on purchasing anything that day, I've always been treated like a schmuck buy the older gentleman that I almost always have had to deal with. It's unfortunate because McGrath has a great showroom and inventory which is why I inevitably wind up there for vehicle purchases in the past with the hope that I get a sales consultant that embodies the same qualities I had as a consultant, but each time, they have made me feel as if I was wasting their time. I purposely come in the middle of the week in inclement weather so I can make sure I have a sales persons time and they don't have to worry about potentially "missing" a sale over someone who may not be purchasing that day but comparison shopping to return back. Most educated consumers and car enthusiasts like myself have already purchased the car in their mind, all the salesman has to do is sell the customer on themselves and that's what closes deals. I've NEVER been treated like this at Lexus Orland or any of the Laurel stores (before and after their Autonation acquisition). It is my intention for this to help other consumers who may deal with Scott Raymond and a lesson for Scott Raymond to change your attitude if you want to increase your altitude in this business.Management - You're accountable for your salespeople, coach them and train them right! I keep expecting better but have been disappointed in my last few visits. Especially the older gentleman who lack patience! I left Laurel next door prior to coming to McGrath and a gentleman that was at least 60-65 years old was able to educate me on almost everything on the Q5 and other relevant Audi things that most consumers or even enthusiasts wouldn't think to notice! He was patient and didn't seem to be worried about the cold weather and holding a conversation with me and just being overall patient.

Justin made car buying easy and painless! He is very friendly and went out of his way to make sure I got the best deal possible. The dealership is amazing, with incredible amenities. Everyone at the dealership is friendly and down to earth, not like the pretentious, aggressive sales people I dealt with at other dealerships. Overall excellent car buying experience!

Justin worked dilgently to try to make my offer work. I discussed with him what my terms for purchasing the used 2011 Jeep Chrokee,in a trade in for my Chevy Malibu. After sevral phone calls, we were able to come to agreement. I am very happy & satisfied with my new vehicle. I would have no reservations on referring Justin to anyone in the market for a new or used vehicle from this dealership.

I went into McGrath to Lease a car. Knowing Kraig Dykman, he referred me to Alisa. I met with Alisa, told her what I was looking for and was able to locate the exact car I wanted immediately. It happened to arrive from Japan in two days. We went over the simply lease details and she said she would call me when it comes in and get it ready. Kraig even shared video of the car coming in and being prepared to take on it's first driver. I showed up that afternoon with my son Gavin and Kraig had some pizza ready for us. After a few slices of some great Chicago Pizza Kraig and Alisa showed us around the dealership I signed my name 25 times and Kraig paired up my phone to the bluetooth and personalized all of my settings for me. He's a great person to demonstrate automobile technology because he shares the some passion for innovation and engineering so I do. Alisa walked me through the whole acquisition process and came highly recommended. I always felt that she was working for me. Coming from an ex-automobile sale professional myself I appreciated her dedicated approach to a focused and pleasant car leasing experience. Bravo!! to the whole McGrath Organization from the top on down.

Great dealership. I didn't purchase my car there, but Justin Storandt did help me out and he was awesome. Great sales guy that actually cares about what your drive. I contacted him to let him know that I went in a different direction, and he went ahead and sent me a postcard congratulating me on the Porsche that I purchased somewhere else. That's a stand-up and professional sales person. I would very much recommend Justin for your auto needs.

I made an appointment with Scott Raymond to: "just come in and look," and I ended up leaving with a loaded LS460. Scott was open, knowledgeable and made me feel comfortable from the beginning of the process to the end. One doesn't always know how to start this process but Scott put me at ease. Geoff was equally friendly, fair and accommodating. Strange to say but I truly felt like they were my advocates. Thanks guys, Tom Zegar

I was in an accident over the summer and unsure about whether I wanted to fix my car or purchase a new vehicle. After test driving several cars, I feel in love with the Lexus RX 330/350 model and there went the idea of fixing my car. I went to Lexus of Naperville being close to my home, and found the saleman to be very rude and almost sarcastic. He spoke to me as if I was a stupid young girl who had not done her research on cars. Yet I'm 30 and have never had a car payment and spent hours researching if I was going to consider having a car payment for the first time! He had me test drive a Lexus that made an incredibly loud sound once I left the parking lot. I believe there was something wrong with the breaks, but when I returned to the lot and reported the problem, he brushed it off as if nothing was wrong and said I was just being too "sensitive". After this experience, I had a bad taste in my mouth about Lexus in general. Then I made the trip out to McGrath Lexus. I found a model on-line that looked really great and called ahead of time to make sure it was available still. Joe Scala, my salemen, had the car ready for me when I got there...in beautiful condition too. He was very considerate and treated me like a young adult, and spent time explaining all of the positive aspects of owning a Lexus. He worked with me on the price of the car, which I felt was very fair. I also believe if there was a problem with the vehicle that he knew of, he probably would have steered me away from the car and to another one. I have had no problems so far, and believe McGrath works hard to keep their positive reputation and therefore would not sell a car they knew had issues. If I could go back I may have worked a little harder to have the navigation updated, but overall I LOVE the car and appreciated Joe for his assistance! The finance guy, Mike, was also very informative and not pushy. He simply provided the facts and let me make my decision regarding purchasing a warranty or not. In the future, I will be going back to McGrath when I'm looking to upgrade my vehicle.

Our experience at McGrath Lexus was excellent. Steve Gibson was kind, courteous, extremely informative, and helped us get a great deal on a wonderful car. Everyone at the dealership treated us with respect and cared about our needs. We now have the exact car that we envisioned through a dealership that will continue to provide us support and assistance whenever we need it. We definitely recommend Steve Gibson and McGrath Lexus!

We bought an 2013 RX350 from Steve Gibson in July (only 125 miles on odo.) and were very happy with his willingness to negotiate with us. I feel as though we got the best deal that we could have no matter where we would have bought. Steve treated us as though we were his close friends and expressed interest in us above and beyond what you would expect from a car salesman. The fact that he allowed us to take the car home was a huge factor in us buying from Steve and McGrath Lexus. We will return to Steve for our next car and we will also recommend him. We expect the service experience to be every bit as good as the buying experience.

Out of state purchase overall went very smooth. Greg was very responsive to a couple minor issues and went above and beyond. All associates dealt with while at dealership were professional and proved customer service is not just a marketing ploy. Would recommend this dealership and will look their first for my next purchase.

The car exceeded my expectations and so did Scott's service. I highly recommend !!!! Kindest regards

Beautiful facility. Polite, but disinterested salesman. The car presented was not presentable. I took myself on a test drive, at the salesman's suggestion. I returned and reported that the car was disappointing. The salesman didn't seem surprised by my assessment, asked no questions, offered no other vehicles for consideration. Since my business was not of more value, I purchased my vehicle a couple of dealerships up the road fr/McGrath. I shook the dust off my feet and won't be returning.

Working with Greg Luzinski was a pleasure while leasing my CT200h. This was my second car purchase from him and it was as flawless as the first experience. He was courteous, knowledgeable, and honest. He always goes out of his way to make sure I am completely satisfied. I sincerely think he is an asset to McGrath Lexus and will be for years to come. Thanks for always treating me like family Greg. ~ Amy Ladd

Terrible experience! In two words: unprofessional & disrespectful. This location told us that they would not tell estimate our monthly payment if we put X money down, paid X sales taxes, etc. They said that in order to look at numbers, they would have to run my credit first! I have never have any car dealership work in this fashion. Because of this request, Justin ("Big J") said that he "doesn't know what our problem is" and "doesn't know why we were being so difficult". No customer should be treated like this in an facet of retail, let alone when you are ready to buy a $30,000 car. Then, when we spoke to the manager, Tom, he apologized and took our phone number to call us the next day AND HE NEVER DID! There are too many other dealerships out there with great service and respect for their customers to have to put up with the unprofessional and disrespectful treatment.

Scot was outstanding. I value an upfront, no frills car buying experience. Thats just what I got. I also felt respect from Scott regarding the information I gathered on my own before coming in to look at the car. Many car salesmen make it sound as though you committed a crime for doing your own research. However I never got that from Scott. I am recommending all my friends to Scott. Great experience.

I have always bought new vehicles, but wanted to take a step up in performance and luxury, hoping to find the right car at the right price. After much research, I decided that the Audi S4 is the perfect combination of luxury and performance, plus decent gas mileage. I have been searching for a 2-3 year old Audi S4 Prestige Edition with low miles and found one at McGrath Lexus through cars.com. I contacted the dealer and Greg Luzinski got back to me very quickly. He was very helpful and answered my questions before we drove 200 miles to see the car in person. Greg was very familiar with the car because he had been driving it for several weeks. Upon arriving at McGrath, we were greeted quickly, and Greg met us right away. The dealership was very impressive all around - a great facility and friendly staff. Greg had the car ready for us to drive and we spent a good amount of time inspecting the car. We first noted that the actual mileage was 2,000 miles greater than listed on the dealer website. While it's undertandable to have a few miles above the listing, I feel that the dealer listing should be updated if the difference is that significant. The inside of the car was virtually flawless, other than a torn floor mat. However, we noted some damage to the back bumper, and the car appeared to have some minor damage that had been painted over. The damage appeared to be cosmetic, and not unexpected for a used car, although this one has less than 20,000 miles on the odometer. There were also a couple bulges in one of the front tires that were deemed to be safe. We were interested in the car and were able to reach a reasonable deal once our trade-in was properly valued. While holding on the price, Greg was able to get a second key produced ($315 cost locally) at the Audi dealer nearby. That was much appreciated.While the entire experience at the dealer was great and Greg couldn't have been more helpful, I brought the car to our local Audi dealer a couple days later. I learned that the bulging tire was due to a damaged inner sidewall, and it is only a matter of time before the tire fails. As a result, I will be purchasing a new set of tires. My Audi dealer also noted a long (8") shallow dent in the undercarriage, and other damage along the lower drivers side that had been repaired, possibly as a result of frame realignment. Since McGrath performed a thorough inspection of the car when they purchased it, I now feel that the dealership was less than forthcoming with the information they had because this damage should been noted by the technicians and passed on to any potential customer. While I understand the used cars are purchased "as is", I felt that a dealership with the outstanding reputation of McGrath would have disclosed this information. Between the new tires and repairing the cosmetic damage, I will be spending nearly $2,300 to bring the car mostly back to the "Like New!" condition advertised in the listing. The concern isn't so much the cosmetic damage, it's the potential hidden stuctural damage to be discovered later.While this is still my dream car, I was hoping my first experience with purchasing a used car would have been better and less costly just two days after I bought the car. The dealership gets great ratings for customer service and friendliness, and my overall experience may have been better if I bought a Lexus. However, I can only give a 'Bad' rating for quality of work due to the undisclosed damage, and just an 'OK' rating for overall experience.

My Husband and I have purchased now four cars from McGarth Lexus. We have purchased our cars from Rita and she is a wonderful sales associate to represent the dealership.Rita is one reason why we come back to McGarth.

I had just lost my car to a flood and knew nothing about cars but knew I always wanted a Lexus, I was very hesitant to walk into a dealer knowing nothing about cars. Greg happened to be the person who helped me and I was pleasantly surprised, he made me feel very comfortable and at ease about trying to find the right car for my needs. He was extremely knowledgeable , friendly and courteous and never put any pressure on me and constantly kept me informed and updated as to the inventory of used cars as they came into e dealership. I finally purchased the perfect car a few days ago and I couldn't be happier , the customer service I received has been nothing but excellent from start to finish . I will definitely highly recommend this dealership to anybody who may be in the market for used or brand new cars.

Visited the dealership from out of town for the first time. Rita was my salesperson. She was a sheer delight, very engaging and very attentive to my needs. Her communication skills has been outstanding. She had great knowledge about the car and made me feel like I was already a top client from the beginning. She made sure I had enough coffee and even got me a sandwich since I was there for awhile. I was also was impressed with Mike Agnello, Business manager. He was very professional and helped me with my loan. My overall experience has been very positive and would recommend this dealership for a new or used car.

This is the second vehicle that I have purchased from Glenn, however my family has used him for other Lexus purchases. Glenn does a great job and is great to work with. I didn't feel pressured in any way and received a great price on a trade in. I'd definitely recommended Glenn as he'll get exactly what you want without feeling the pressure that a typical car buying experience may provide.

I recently purchased a certified pre-owned 2010 RX 350 from McGrath, and Scott Raymond was my Sales Consultant. Scott was extremely friendly through the entire process, and was not nearly as pushy as I expected most car salesman would be going into the car buying process. Scott was very accommodating to my time as I could not complete the sale until after the dealership was closed on a Saturday. Overall, I had a great sales experience with Scott, and since purchasing the car I have had just as good of an experience with the rest of the staff at McGrath including Jason Ellison in the service department and Kraig in delivery.

I was in the market for a second car to use in beautiful california, when I came across the McGrath listing on a 2005 convertible. Greg Luzinski was in contact with me from beginning to end . I consider myself to be a very picky buyer who ask a thousand questions especially on items this expensive and Greg was so patient with me in every step of the way. Well done Greg, you have a customer for life. Thanks again Greg and the McGrath family

About two weeks ago I decided to visit Lexus of Westmont to look for a specific type of SUV. I spoke with Scott Raymond over the phone to make the appointment. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to keep the appointment and rescheduled. When I visited the store the following day I went without my husband who happened to be out of town. Upon meeting me I informed Scott that my husband would be the one that would need to sign off on any paper work before I could purchase a vehicle. Despite what I told Scott he showed me the SUV I was interested in and talked to me about the car. After test driving the car I knew that I wanted to own it and take it home. When I contacted my husband he told me that he wanted to see the car but would not be back in town until Tuesday. When I told Scott this he said that was fine and he would see us then. Unfortunately, we were unable to keep this appointment also and didn't come until the following Wednesday at 5:00pm. Once we were there, Scott immediately took us out for another test drive this time with my husband driving. During the entire time Scott was pleasant, charming, and personable which made us both feel very comfortable. Once we returned to the store negotiations begin. This process was emotional and lengthy because each person saw a different value in the car. Finally after having much dialog and negotiation, we agreed on a deal and purchased the car. What impressed me the most about Scott is that from the time I first contacted him until the end he was very patient and not pushy. He treated both my husband and I with the highest respect and warmth. Scott has an incredible sense of humor that kept me laughing even during the more difficult parts of the negotiations. He listened to us when we spoke and never made us feel like what we were saying didn't matter. I am so pleased that Scott was the person that sold us the car because I had been mistreated by other car salesmen before coming to Westmont. Even Scott's supervisor was pleasant to deal with and had an equally fantastic sense of humor. My experience with Scott was one that I will never forget, because not only was he friendly but extremely intelligent and understanding of my circumstances and my husbands opinions about purchasing a car. Considering the profession that Scott is in, I feel that he tries to deal with his customers as honestly as he possibly can and tries to maintain his integrity by being upfront about things which can be difficult in any sales profession. When I am ready to purchase another car I hope Scott is the person that sales it to me because I know he will work hard to put me in the car that I want. I believe Scott is an asset to Westmont and adds value to the dealership.Thank you for your time.

He was also very patient with my wife and I as we did not know exactly which model would have what we were looking for in a car. We were there for several hours and he never made us feel like we were too bothersome. My wife and I had been to many other dealerships that day and Scott was by far the freindliest and " unpushy" sales person we had encountered that day. This is our first Lexus vehicle and we are very happy with the decision we made ( ES 350 ). For anyone looking to buy a car without feeling like you are not being pressured I would highly reccomend Scott Raymond. Thank you Scott, Tim Olson

The purchasing of a Lexus experience was the best experience I have encountered in the last 30 years. I have always purchased a Cadillac and would have never purchased a Lexus if it was not for Joe Scala - a genuine person and True Professional. The car buying experience being coached by Joe was remarkable. His caring attitude and focus on what I needed as a customer made me a proud owner of a Lexus vehicle bi want to express to Joe and share with his Manager and also with McGrath Lexus that buying a car working with Joe and staff made it fun As well as refreshing behaving purchased only caddy's for the past 30 years made me realize that the experience my wife and I encountered with Joe made us feel important and satisfied as we drove 65 miles home. Make no mistake - Joe made it worth the drive and I will be back soon to trade in my 2010 Caddy for a new Lexus - as long as I can deal directly with Joe Scala.

I bought my new 2013 Lexus ES 350 on 2/20 from McGrath Lexus in Westmont. Since I bought it, I haven't stopped driving it! I Love my Lexus! Please visit my new family at McGrath Lexus in Westmont. Joe Scala is the guy to go see. He was very friendly and very professional. He treated me like family the minute I walked in. I will never buy any other car make, or go to any other dealer. Thanks Joe!

I will surely recommend this dealership to anyone. I was impressed with the level of professionalism, sincerity and conducive atmosphere to do business. I must say I was particularly impressed with the way Greg Luzinski treated me. Thank you Greg.

My wife and I have owned at least one Lexus for the past 13 years and only experienced one other dealership in another state which we both thought was exceptional. McGrath Lexus is clearly the best in class benchmark now, which means other dealerships probably don't have a chance. Everyone we came in contact with are top notch. Steve Gibson is a great sales person but more important a great person. Bob Cowden, the New Car Delivery Manager took the time to go through every option on the new RX450h and in a very creative and entertaining way. The paperwork process was the most efficient I have ever experienced. McGrath Lexus is best in class!!!!Thanks for a great experienceRandy and Janet Clausen

Greg Luzinkski and McGrath Lexus was a pleasure to work with. We made the deal over the phone via texting of pictures and video. Greg overnighted the paperwork and we caught the Amtrak the next morning from Indiana to Chicago. Made verbal agreement at 10 pm night before catching Amtrak. They picked us up at Union Station and transported to dealership. Porter, Kirk, was enjoyable to chat with and very professional. We inspected the vehicle, paperwork was done, check written, and ready to hit the road home. By the way, they also prepared lunch for our ride home. Arrived in Chicago-out the door/on the road within 40 minutes. One of best auto experiences we have encountered. Would highly recomend. Brad and Stacy, Bloomington, Indiana - Go Hoosiers!

Just bought a used 2007 ES350 and love it! The customer service and especially our salesman, Joe Scala, is exceptional. Joe and his manager went out of their way to make sure we were 100% satisfied with our car choice and the price settled upon. This is our 2nd Lexus purchased from Joe and both experiences were great! If you're looking for a Lexus used or new I definitely recommend seeing Joe Scala at McGrath Lexus in Westmont.

I walked in to McGrath Lexus to test drive an RX 350 for the first time. Scott Raymond was paged to assist me. We took the SUV for a test drive, Scott was thorough and patient throughout the drive. We then when on the hunt to find one on the lot that had the options and color and price that I wanted. After a few trys we found it! Scott was very professional and friendly. I would recommend McGrath Lexus and Scott to friends and family. I also want to mention the gentleman John who helped me through the setup process of my new vehicle. I am a first time Lexus onwer and had a fair amount of questions. John was amazing as well! He made sure everything was set up exactly the way I wanted it and very patiently answered ALL of my questions. I would definately go back to McGrath Lexus!

I had a good experience shopping for my used Lexus 350 while working and negotiating with Scott Raymond. He is a likeable person and not a high pressure salesman. I would recommend McGrath Lexus and Scott Raymond specifically to anyone. It was a pleasure working with him and I found him helpful even after purchasing the car.

We found the used LS with the desired color and options at an excellent price while searching listings on autotrader.com. I called the dealership to discuss the vehicle and decided, on the phone, that this was the car for us. We made a deposit on the car and bought our plane tickets to fly up from Arkansas to purchase the car. The car was exactly as described. It looked and drove great. From the first phone call to the dealership, through the finalization of the purchase, we received excellent service. The office and sales staff were very professional and worked close with us for a quick and smooth transaction. We were on the highway in our new car within an hour of our initial inspection of the car. Walking through the showroom, we found a full variety of Lexus vehicles. We were very impressed overall with this Lexus dealership. We would definitely do business again with them and would recommend to anyone looking for a great deal.

We recently had a very special experience while looking to purchase a new car and were treated very fairly on the trade-in value of our trade and on the price of the new car. The salesman, Mr. Steve Gibson, pointed out the new features and took time to show us the car. He was very courteous but not pushy.We purchased the RX350 that was shown on the floor and the dealership had the carcompletely prepared for me to pick up the next day. The Sales Manager, Mr. Tom O'Conor, spoke with us and helped us with the trade. We have dealt with Mr.o'Connor over the many years of trading with the McGrath Dealership, he has sold us most of our cars from there.Mr. Michael Connerey in the Business Office met with me regarding the financial matters and explained each document as I signed. He was very pleasant and efficient. Finally, Mr. Kraig Dykman, Delivery Specialist, took me through all of the new features, set the radio, put my phone in sink with the Bluetooth, set the garage door opener and demonstrated how all of the buttons are to work.We were very imporessed with each of the employees of the dealership and could see first hand that they definitely enjoyed their jobs.Thank you!!!Robert and Phyllis Breisch

We decided at the last minute to price a new ES 350. So, we took a chance on McGrath Lexus of Westmont. We met Christi and away we went. She listen to our reasons and our needs. She was kind and very patience, so we felt at ease with her right way. She has an intuition about her clients that is dead on. She moves us from the ES 350 to a GS 350 and there it was, our car. If you want a really nice car purchasing experience, check out Christi Brooker. She does all she can for her clients.From Eric, the Manager, Christie, our sales agent, Bob, Craig, and Michael etc... the service was exceptional.

I couldn't be happier with my new car and McGrath Lexus! Justin was wonderful to work with. He was professional, knowledgable and just a really nice guy. My husband has driven a Lexus for a few years now and has nothing but good things to say about the dealership! When I started shopping around for a gently used car he suggested I look at McGrath. He said that no dealer can beat the customer service and "perks" that Lexus offers. He was right! As soon as I drove it I knew I made the right decision! And with free unlimited car washes...I'm happy as can be!

We went to McGrath Lexus to trade in our 2006 GS; which was purchased from McGrath in 2006. The service dept. (Tim Lucas) has treated our service/maintenance visits so well that we knew that we MUST buy another McGrath Lexus. No other dealership would do.Greg Luzinski greeted us at the door and offered beverages. The whole experience of purchasing our new/slightly used 2013 GS took ONLY 2 Hours. When asked about pricing; Greg was quick to cut to the chase and work up numbers on the three vehicles of our interest. Test drives were made and the deal was struck. Greg is a likeable person and well versed in the McGrath Lexus culture. He thoroughly knows the Lexus product line. This purchase was a joy.We highly recommend a visit to the McGrath Lexus dealership to enjoy their hospitality and their beautiful facility. A Job well done McGrath Team!

Everyone at McGrath treated me with respect, professionalism, and especially eagerness to help and please. Rita was recommended by Bob Spee at Oak Lawn Toyota. After shopping other dealers i.e., Toyota, Nissan and Lexus I am so glad that I went to McGrath and asked for Rita. The General Manager, Tracy Isselhardt, the Sales Manager, and the Senior Business Manager , Michael Connery made my whole experience perfect as they helped me until Rita arrived. She is excellent; she acted very professionally, yet made me feel like she sincerely cared about my purchasing the right vehicle for me. Rita went above and beyond the call of duty as a Lexus salesperson and has continued after the sale to be just as helpful, caring, and enthusiastic.Ben Kruchten the Delivery Specialist has spent a few hours helping me to learn how to use all of the fantastic electronics and any other information that I have needed. He deserves an A plus for expertise, patience, and attitude. I have already recommended McGrath and Rita to friends and family.M.E. DuncanHappy New Lexus RX350 Owner

This is the third time I'm buying a car from him in 10 years and I will be returning to purchase a car here in the future. Steve was very professional, courteous, knowledgeable, and really went the extra mile to make me a happy customer. I highly recommend you work with Steve at this dealership if you are looking to buy a new or used car! J. Collo

We were completely satisfied with our visit and will do business again with McGrath Lexus in Westmont.

I went to McGrath Lexus to find a newer vehicle to replace my RX330, although nothing wrong with it, I was just looking to get into a newer and smaller (more sporty) vehicle. Joe Scala not only found one with every option I wanted, in perfect condition, at the right price for me, he found my dream car with a very good deal on my trade in! I was blown away at how easily everything went, and how accommodating he was! He took the time to listen to everything I was looking for in a vehicle, and literally showed me the PERFECT car! I have never been so happy with a vehicle purchase in my life! Even when I stop by for the free car washes, Joe always takes a moment to stop and say hi, the customer service is simply exceptional.

I purchased a pre-owned 2004 ES330 from Scott Raymond about 15 min. before closing on a Friday Night. Although the dealership was closing and all of the staff were leaving, Scott stayed and followed through with a good price for the car. He made sure that I was well taken care of by the documentation personnel and was able to locate an owners manual (important for me) before I left. He was able to explain almost all of the features of this "Special Edition" and when I returned for an adjustment of the headlights, Scott was able to procure a manual for the navigation system for the car. I was very impressed! I am very happy with my purchase and would not hesitate to recommend Scott or the dealership to those interested in a quality used car.

He reviewed the car fax report, service history, tire & break usage, etc. for the three vehicles I was interested in.I received very good pricing and bought the car.It was a very good buying experience and Joe took care of me through the entire process.He is a true professional and look forward to working with him again in the future.

My husband and I visited McGrath Lexus and met with Greg Luzinski many months before we wanted to purchase a car. We had an amazing experience, but it just wasn't the right time. After our visit we visited other dealerships and the customer service and pricing we encountered paled in comparison to that which Greg provided us. After one particularly bad experience at another dealer, we on a whim went back to visit Greg. Bought a car that day. Can't say we walked in expecting to do that, but the price was right and Greg was awesome to work with. He is far from your typical car salesman.

I purchased my CT200 from Larry Pebelske just before Christmas. I had put off buying a new car because I've had such bad experiences in the past. In fact, it had been 20 years since my last new car. But dealing with Larry and the whole team at Lexus of Westmont completely changed my mind. Larry was great - took me for a test drive a month before I bought the car. He didn't harass me. I had told him my timetable for buying and he was very respectful of my time. They gave me a very good price. I wasn't planning on taking the car that day, but they made it so easy for me. They gave me a very thorough introduction to the car (my first hybrid) and made it a great experience. I would recommend Larry and McGrath of Westmont. I'll go back there again.

I loved my 2011 RX 350 and my salesman, Steve Gibson so much I just traded for a 2013 under the repeat customer program. The evaluation of my 2011 for the trade was painless, and the price fair. In this process, Steve catered to my need to understand every number, was attentive to communicating delivery timing of the new car, and stayed late on delivery date to accommodate my schedule and assure that every detail was attended to (it was, thanks to the rest of the team's great service)Jeremy Tran in the business office was professional and quick, and Ben Kruchten was a dream in my "lesson" on how to get the most out of the bells and whistles in the RX 350. He couldn't have been more patient in facilitating my goal of learning about the "new stuff", plus some things I never mastered in my 2011. I recommend McGrath, and Steve, every chance I get.

I just bought a 2013 RX350 from Steve Gibson at McGrath Lexus of Westmont. Before we started the process my husband had a negative impression of Lexus salespeople since he had had a couple of not-so-stellar experiences in the past. However, Steve turned this impression right aorund with his courtesy, attention to detail, passion and dedication to his work. Steve exhibited a genuine desire to help and it is fair to say that Steve was a big reason that we decided to buy a Lexus and to buy from this dealership.Ben our Delivery Expert was extermely helpful and thanks to him I have been using most [not all, yet!] of the new features of my Navigation and Media systems. Kudos to Steve and the dealership. They have made our Lexus experience special! Keep up the good work!Pia C

Eric and Scott were receptive to my requests and accomodating. Instructions for operating the various operatives on the car were well covered.There was some lacking in knowledge of the three year bumper to bumper warranty for the purchase of certified cars. But overall the sale presentations were friendly and proffesional. Mcgrath Lexus projects a favorable image.

As my Lexus GS 300 had reached ten years, we decided it was time to trade it in. We returned to McGrath Lexus, hoping to make our third pre-owned purchase there (the first had been an LS). After listening to what I was looking for, Joe made some recommendations on the floor, and then went to his computer to see what else they had that would fit the parameters we gave him. It didn't take long for him to make his best recommendation, which turned out to be one on the floor, and explain why this was his best suggestion. Then we took it out for a test drive, an Joe explained more features of the car and how this one, a GS 350, was an upgrade from the one we were trading in (which, by the way, had been a terrific car, and was in excellent shape). He also worked with Eric to get us the best possible trade for my ten year old car. Throughout, Joe was very professional, helpful, and easy to work with (no pressure). He also introduced us to Bob, who spent over an hour teaching me how to use all the features of the car, including the updated navigation system. I am very happy with the car and with the way we were treated. As a longtime customer of McGrath, I have been very satisfied with the service that has been given to the cars we have purchased there.

My husband and I recently bought a pre-owned LS460 from Greg Luzinski. Before landing at McGrath Lexus of Westmont, we went to several other Lexus dealers in the Chicagoland area, and I can honestly say the way we were treated by Greg from beginning to end was by far the most pleasant and honest experience we had throughout the process. Greg spent a fair amount of time with us and took the time to answer and address all questions/concerns we had and never made us feel pressured to buy the car. We ended up with a great car and got a great deal, and since our purchace Greg has followed up on several occasions to make sure we are satisfied with our purchace. Greg and McGrath of Westmont is definitely a place we will return to when looking for another car.

Since i got my car i was still looking to make sure i was not tricked on a price for the car, but i still can not find any better price on similar cars i've got. Also when i came to wash my car (i can not worry about paying for this pleasure anymore!!!) i was admired when Joe came to me and remembered all small things i was talking i would like to have and gave it without even having to remind him, but rather he himself remind me what i wanted. He cares!!!! Very happy with my choice and chance to work with Joe Scala!

My experience with Mcgrath Lexus of westmont is very disappointing. No professionallism is shown by the salesperson. I did buy a used vehicle the sales person Justin has no clue about the vehicle he is selling. He did not answer any of our questions properly. Almost 10 ten days since I bought the vehicle, the dealership did not even bother to call me to see how much I am satisfied with the purchase.Maybe they already knew they did a a very bad job. Please dont trust the positive reviews on this website. All written by dealership people. Another disappointing fact they made me drive from another state and changed everything in last minute. I WILL NEVR EVER BUY A CAR FROM THIS DEALERSHIP AGAIN.This dealership sucks.

Steve Gibson is a sales professional and always is asking what more can he do to earn and maintain your business. Answers questions with good knowlege of product and is willing to ask someone else if it is a area that he is not completely clear on.Steve and I have been talking about the new ES Series for over a year and I am pleased to say I now own a new ES300H. This is a simply amazing vechicle, can't say enough good things about it.Casy in the service department is great to work with. My last Lexus had 150,000 mileson the vehicle and Casey was very helpful in helping me maintain the vehicle.Casey and I would discuss maintance and I felt the he had my best interest alongwith keeping the vechicle running in top shape.Terry Long

MCGrath Lexus is a first class organization. Joe Scala is a wonderful salesperson and treats everyone like family. He goes above and beyond and even after your purchase he is always on hand to help with anything. The service department is also first class, they are always going above and beyond to make sure that i am informed about every aspect of my vehicle's service. Unlike other Lexus dealers, McGrath always puts the customer first, whether its a quick phone call to ask a question about my vehicle or its a quick stop in at lunch to have something looked at all of the service staff are ready to take care of their customers, and always with smiles on thier faces. The facility is great too.

I have been taking my 2006 GS430 for major service at Westmont for some time now. Dean has always gone above and beyond to take care of my GS430 and he gives me a fair shake on pricing.The wife and myself have been looking into a second car for our growing family for some time now. This being her first car ever. Compared the Q5, MDX/RDX, ML350, X5, Murano. Hands down in my opinion the styling, comfort, build quality, visibility, features, mileage, reliability, usability of electronics all exceed the competition.I figured I would take my business to Westmont first based on my previous experiences, I called Dean and asked him who he would recommend. Got a phone call back from Greg and a lot of the details we worked out over the phone while I was at work. I was pressed for time and could only come in 15 minutes before they close. We werent hassled or rushed or stressed out. Through the whole experience he was very pleasant and accommodating. Took home a CPO 2010 RX350 and we love it. There was one feature missing, parking sensors, which is a must for getting around the city and out of our garage in an alley. Westmont without issue invited us back to ensure we were completely satisfied. The rest is history.I have shopped many dealers in the past between my Jetta GLI, Maxima and GS430 and never have I received such excellent service. Westmont has set the bar High and fully intend on getting my GS-F from them when the time comes!

My recent visit to McGrath Lexus this past weekend was nothing less than positive. Greg Luzinski was extremely helpful in finding a car for ME. Going to dealerships can be intimidating but the moment I sat with Greg I was at ease. I went in with no expectations but wanting a used car. Not to mention, I was desperate for a new "big girl" car since my previous (almost 14 year old) car had pretty much ran its coarse. Greg took all of my needs into consideration and matched me with a beautiful car that fits my personality, lifestyle, and budget! Since Saturday, I have already told a few girls at work where and who to go to when they start looking for a new car! Thanks so much Greg!! I appreciate your help, time, and kindness!! I can't remember the last time I smiled to myself because of what I was driving! You're the best! : )

Scott was positive in giving the impression that we were getting the car no matter what. My wife her whole life had always wanted a Lexus and not only did she get it the Lexus was certified per-owned. The next best to being new. Scott was able to give us the experience of a lifetime at McGrath Lexus . Never in my car shopping experience was I blown away by the showroom with so many bells and whistles I was on sensory overload. He made the process so smooth and confident and with no pressure and treating us like long lost friends. I have never been at a dealership where we were treated like royalty to include rolling out the red carpet. We are Toyota owners and now we are Toyota Lexus owners. My only regret is that I had not been to McGrath Lexus years ago. I will never shop anywhere else ever for a car I have found my life long dealer. No other dealership can come close or hold a candle to McGrath Lexus . Scott is an asset to this dealership and is most professional at his job in sales. Most of all he has changed my opinion of the term car salesman. We look forward to doing business at McGrath Lexus and with Scott in the future. I will definitely recommend this dealer to all my friends and family.

I want to give a note of appreciation to two people who have helped me out! First of all, I was having a problem pairing my new cell phone to my new Lexus. Ashley who answered my call was so very helpful about getting me to a Delivery Specialist. She is the first one I talked to (she patiently listened) about the problem I was having, and immediately checked who was in to help with my problem and made sure to get a note to them to call me. Now that does leave you with a good impression right away! Then Kraig, a Delivery Specialist, called me and solved the problem.I just felt that their fine service should be noted. Thanks you Ashley and Kraig!Barbara Spitkovsky

I didn't feel rushed in the slightest and I really appreciate that.She checked on me often while I waited for my car to be finished. Jason Ellison was equally helpful and attentive. Both really knew their stuff!! I was going to to go the Orland Park Lexus, but my new home will be McGrath of Westmont because of Rita and Jason.I had to come back the next day while a part was ordered and the customer service was just as good. Top notch!! If you go, request Rita and Jason - you will not be disappointed.

My husband and I called ahead and made an appointment with Joe Scala. He was very helpful and guided us in purchasing 2 cars. He made us very comfortable in the process. He checked on us each step of the way, especially since we couldn' do this in one day. Everything he said he would do, he did. He had excellent follow-through. We purchased our first Lexus from McGrath about 10 years ago and was please to find the same quality service. We plan to remain a loyal customer.

We pulled into the lot at 6 pm on Friday and one of the porters thankfully let us in the door at 6:05-we did not know that McGrath closed at 6 and we were still welcomed in and never rushed. My fiance and I were looking to trade in 2 vehicles and we were extremely happy with the offer presented to us and the specific used RX350 we wanted, color and all, was available. I suggested we come back in the morning but Eric and Scott both insisted it was ok and were happy to stay until almost 9 pm to accommodate us. I couldn't believe the personal service we received by all including Mike in finance. We definitely recommend McGrath Lexus for used vehicles as well as their service center, we have visited service previously and John was always good to us. When we decide to purchase a new vehicle in the future McGrath will be the first place we go, because I know it will be the only place we have to go. Thanks to all for making our car buying experience a positive and uplifting event and that's a first for me!

It was very good experience with Joe Scala, McGarth Lexus of Westmont. He was very friendly and help me to choose from many selections. He explains functions about Hybrid RX 400h. It was very good to understand and easy to decide and I made my selection to get 2006 Hybrid RX 400h very easily. I wanted to include Eric the sales manager and finance manager also. They were very nice and friendly as well.I will highly recommend to others McGarth Lexus of Westmont to see Joe Scala. As I said earlier to Joe I was here to buy 2 cars but lets do 1 at a time.

I just recently as Thursday, 11/1 purchased a 2012 RX350 SUV from Scott Raymond.He was just awesome to work with, he has a very awesome personality.He worked with us and at times we were tuff on him and he always took it and always had a great comeback. He worked hard with me to get me the best possible deal I could get. I was looking for a 2011 or 2012 and he was very honest with me and told me that what I was looking for was not easy to find. After checking his statement out I found that he was honest in that. He stood by his words when I made him stay until very late one night and said I would come back the next day and he said he would give me still a great deal even though some of the promotions were to end the day before.Just buying the car I can not comment on repairs and service as I have not had to use it yet. The showroom, and repair area was just awesome, clean and a plesure to be in.Their service department helpers were just awesome and very helpful transfering all my belongings from my old car to my new one. Bob the tech. who helps you lean all the new tricks to your car was just a wonderful person also.I love the dealership and would recommend anyone to McGrath and I would recommendScott Raymond. After I get to use their service department (hopefully not too much) I will for sure write a review on that.Thanks again Scott and McGrath. Also I do not want to forget that Tracy their General Manager was also a pleasure to work with. Thanks again Scott, Tracy, and Bob you guys are the best!!!

My husband and I went to McGrath Lexus in Westmont to purchase our 2nd Lexus from them.We have loved the first one and when the need for another car arrived, after 30 years of having a company car went away, we went back. Glenn was patient and kind the whole way through. We drove several cars and finally chose an ES350. My Husband really wanted an RX, but that will have to wait for the next one. We were there late and many of the employees were gone already. Glenn still took the time to explain as much as we needed to know to drive the car, open the doors, pair the phones, ( very cool)and work the seats etc. We still need a few more lessons on some features and Glenn is very eager to help with that also.All in all our experience with Glenn and Lexus has always been a good one. We look forward to the time when we will be back for the RX.Oh, and by the way in case you did not know, EVERYONE ALWAYS gets a full tank of gas when you buy a car from them.Thanks Glenn for a great job!George & JoAnn Sacco

I spoke to Larry on the phone and numerous emails about trading my car in for a new Lexus and what it would take to do so. Right off the gate I knew that he was an experienced consultant. He helped me decide on what I should do about my trade in and he even went above and beyond to find answers for me. He gave me options! Not one of those "take it or leave it" kind of things. He knew my budget and tried to do the best he can to get me into my new car. He was very successful. I spoke with Mike the sales manager, Jimmy Tran the finance manager and Bob (the guy that doesn't try to sell you anything). Those guys make a perfect team. Talk about customer satisfaction. After all the paper work was finished, Bob took me to my new car and showed me what every button does. I left there knowing everything about my new car. The only place I would recommend anyone who is looking for a new car is McGrath Lexus of Westmont.

My experience of getting my IS250 was great. Scott was very helpful and fun to deal with. I'm very happy with my first luxury car, except the price--Scott, I know you could do better than that! The people, service and shpping environment is great here. Thanks for your help Scott!

My experience with Greg has changed my view on purchasing anything in the future. So many times I shopped only for price and in the end I never was satisfied. When Greg went into such detail about what I have overlooked and what I was getting with this vehicle and McGrath Lexus I was blown away. I've always been someone that researches everything so I could I overlook so much?!?! The value Greg built in his product and himself is what I would love for my own employees to do at my company. Everyone there at McGrath from Greg to Mike who did the financing portion to Bob who showed me all the bells and whistles on the vehicle were top notch!! This must be what Lexus strives for. What a gem!!! I can't wait to get my massage! Yes that's right, they have complimentary massages while you get a car wash!!! Thanks again Greg!!

Rita Barkstrom was my sales representative. She was truly wonderful, friendly, and helpful. I would not hesitate to recommend her to relatives and friends. Rita introduced me to John, the service manager, who was very polite and told me he would be glad to help me with any problem that I encountered. I would highly recommend this dealership as one of the best I have done business with. This was truly the best experience I have had in purchasing a car. I believe I was given a very fair trade-in value on my old car.

Scott was a pleasure to work with. I gave him an idea of what I was looking for and he went to work. After looking and evaluating a couple cars, he found a 2010 Lexus HS250. I'm pleased with the purchase. More importantly, my wife is pleased with the car. I would recommend working with Scott.

I spoke to Scott Raymond a few months ago, and he kept in touch with me about my needs for a vehicle, but he was never pressuring. When the time came that I needed to act, he was very helpful and professional. The dealership really helps the process with all that they have. My young kids were supposed to be with my parents, but something came up and I had to bring them to the dealership with me. Buying a car takes a while, but there was so much for them to do that it really helped take the stress out of the situation.

I walked into McGrath Lexus of Westmont and was met by Greg Luzinski. I was immediately treated with respect and offered a beverage before proceeding to look at a few vehicles. Greg was beyond patient in showing me different models. I always thought price is what mattered when it came to the purchase of a car but Greg quickly showed me all you could miss out on if price is the only thing that matters to you. The attention to detail and the value of having such a caring sales rep and dealership is something you can not put a price on. Greg and McGrath went above and beyond in ways that in the end will be way more valuable then saving a few hundred dollars at the time of the purchase. Thanks McGrath Lexus for hiring such an asset to your business. Thank you Greg for all you have done. I LOVE my car!!!!!

I recently bought a Pre-owned GS 350. The dealership showroom, service center, delivery area, waiting room and cafe was really nice and made everything move smoothly after we came to final price. Our Saleman, Scott Raymond, did have some commuction issues. I asked if the pre owned car was smoke free, and he responded "100% smoke free" once in the car I saw clearly burn marks on the A pillar and it had an oder of smoke. Scott also told me that one of his co-workers was the owner, Mr. McGrath, so I assumed he wasn't lying. Then I googled the owner and it was clear it was not the same person that I met at the dealership as one was black and the other was white. I understand trying to make a joke but somethings should not be said. As far as service, they had to pick up the car and do some things that were negotiated in the deal. They did the main things but forgot to adjust brights and sun roof, so as of now both are still unusable. Over all everything was good but if you should be lyed to or joked with when it comes ot smoke or owners.

I bought a used Honda Odyssey 2005 EX-L with Navigation and Entertainment. Everything was awesome at this dealership. You know the usual waste of time at car dealership, that you expect, no matter how big or small the dealership is. And also the haggling on price was as expected at any car dealership. But the worst to mention is, when I test drove this minivan, there were 8 seats in it, including the jump seat which goes in the middle of 2nd row captain seats. I went to buy this van 4 days later and the van was without the 8th seat. I was told that I don't remember it correctly. I showed the salesman it was there in the pictures on their website. Salesman confirmed it, checked with service folks and told me it is now as it is. They dropped the price on this with some haggling and conversation but it was a soar taste.Except this, overall experience was awesome.Scott Raymond was the sales guy at McGrath Lexus and other than the 8th seat issue, everything else was good about him. We found him courteous as compared to other sales people I met at other dealerships.

Rita Barkstrom was my sales person and she did a phemominal job listening to my requests, wants and wishes and worked within my budget. She was quick with responses and made herself available any time of day! Even while on vacation... Love my new GX460! It's everything I could imagine and more... Ben helped me through the tough part of getting to know my new vehicle and was very patient with me. Thanks to Rita, Ben and the entire Lexus staff for making the decision so easy and painless.

I just purchased my second Lexus from Steve Gibson of McGrath Lexus of Westmont. The car is beautiful and I am loving it!The personal attention I get from Steve, my salesman, is what brought me back to McGrath. He treats you like you are his only customer, and is very knowlegeable about all the Lexus models, which I found to be very helpful.I must also mention how nice Bob Cowden was in teaching me about all the new features on the car. He was great.And of course, I am happy that Tim Lucas will still be taking care of any service the car may need.McGrath is really a great dealership...so happy to be a customer of theirs.Barbara Spitkovsky

We recently had our first experience with McGrath Lexus. Our salesman, Greg Luzinski, was extremely helpful selecting a certified car that met our needs and budget. He answered all our questions and followed up with a phone call a few dayus later to make sure we had no problems with the car and were completely satisfied. We woulldn't hesitate to recommend Greg to anyone looking for a Lexus.

Fred Cramer and delivery specialist Robert Cowden ensured that we had a superior experience in the purchase of a new lexus. They took great pride in explaining in detail all aspects of the Lexus GS. Importantly they took steps to ensure that our questions were answered and that we were comfortable driving the car out of the dealership. They spent a lot of time with us. A mile high salute to them for a job well done.

Over the years, I'll purchased many, many vehicles. But to date, I'd have to rate my Westmont Mcgrath visit as second to none for overall experience. Despite a slow start, salesmen scott was instrumental thru out the entire process. I commend the staff & dealership for fostering such a winning environment. Keep it up Westmont.

Walking into a dealership with my guard up is the norm for me. I have driven by the McGrath dealership many times thinking they were just like all the others. This of course is not to true! I had the pleasure of working with Greg Luzinski an honest up front person who made sure I got the best deal possible. I could not ask for more than that. This courtesy and honesty will encourage me to continue to do business with McGrath Lexus of Westmont.

My wife and I were looking for a used vehicle at Westmont Lexus. We were introduced to Joe Scala. He took care of all of our needs and answered any questions we had in a professional manner. He was a pleasure to work with and made our experience a very positive one. I would recommend Joe Scala and the Westmont Lexus team to everyone.

I have NEVER had such an easy and comfortable experience purchasing a used car.I had two purchases at McGrath prior to this one, and had a recommendation of a specific woman.When I called, I learned that although she was scheduled to have been in, she wasn't there and had NOT called in. I was immediately of the idea that I wanted someone reliable.I asked to "just connect me with the next person in rotation".LUCKY for me, Scott Raymond answered in a timely manner, with compassion,humor,empathy and a sincerity in his voice which put me at ease.He LISTENED as I explained the situation with my prior car in service, and was willing to show me my options as it appeared to be senseless to repair my 2001 ES300. I had not entertained switching cars until this episode. Scott very smoothly made an appointment for me to come in and connected with service,to allow me to use the rental while we did some checking. I repeat, Scott centered in on possibilities with a LISTENING ear, narrowing the choices and never coming across as pushy or frustrated with me. I then threw in the fact that I would have to discuss this all with my sons, and Scott did adjust to my sons airplane schedule and then being detained at his convention another day . Scott continued to keep the conversations lighthearted and actually, his incredible humor helped the cause! We focused on several options and when my son finally arrived, the whole choice changed because my son KNEW I needed navigation. Scott switched gears calmly and continued the search with new stips . As the couple of days turned, Scott was patient and funny beyond ...my son was so comfortable with Scots integrity; he didn't have to return. Friday was my babysitting day with my 4 1/2 year old grandson,so I had him with , and Scott didn't flinch. We negotiated the deal after hours on a Friday,with a child.! Because of the late hour, and the day, I had to take delivery after the weekend, and Scott continued to check on that process to be sure it was going perfectly. His communication skills are abundant. On a lighter note, Scots dog Cubby is a very "lucky dog" to have Scott!!

My experience at McGrath Lexus was absolutely amazing...I am from Wisconsin and live about 4 hours away...I had called Greg Luzinski on the phone about a pre-owned Lexus IS-F that I loved...From the start of the conversation on Thursday when I called Greg he treated me like I was his own brother...I drove down on Saturday because of all the great feedback I'd heard about McGrath as well...We only have Bergstrom dealerships by us and the service is horrible...Greg met us in the show room and went over the car and let us take it for a test drive...We got back and knew it was the car for us...The problem is we didn't like the rims compared to the other IS-F in the showroom...Greg bent over backwards and worked with us and gave us a very fair price not only on our car for trade but on the IS-F as well...He also had the rims switched out to the ones we wanted...He was running around like crazy trying to take care of everything to make sure we were 100% satisfied...He bought us lunch while we waited for everything...He was an absolute treat to work with and it was the best car buying experience I've ever had in my life and there have been a lot of them...The customer service lived up to all the other reviews from the GM Eric right on down to the service people who showed us all the bells and whistles on the car...I felt 100% comfortable when I left that I had made the right choice in taking the 4 hour drive...Greg shares a love for the Bulls as well and hope we can catch a game in the future...He is now not only my salesperson but my friend...If you want a great experience go and talk to Greg and the McGrath family...I'm now a client for life and will go out of my way to recommend everyone to go there...Thank you so much again for everything...The pleasure was 100% all ours...Thank you again for taking such good care of us and treating us with great respect....

Overall I had a fantastic experience at the Westmont McGrath Lexus. From the start when I met my sales associate Justin Storandt, all the way to pulling out of their parking lot in my new car. I can't even think of any part of my experience that was sub-par. I was very nervous about buying a new car. Immediately when I walked into the showroom I was greeted with smiles and warm welcomes. The receptionist was very helpful in calling Justin to tell him his client has arrived. Justin was very cool, relaxed, and professional. I explained to Justin exactly what I wanted in my new car, IE. Color, style, price, and amenities. He listened to everything I had to say and showed me a wonderful assortment of Lexus truck options. The models were endless with features. I narrowed my choice down to a few. We went and checked out a couple in the parking lot and we went on a test drive. On our drive I was all smiles. I felt like a kid in a candy shop. Instead I was a adult that made her way up to a Lexus dealership. Justin was friendly and fun when I was picking out a truck. He made my experience completely enjoyable and exciting, instead of nerve wrecking, to which buying a new car can be. I got a amazing car at a great price. I absolutely hands down couldnt be happier with my choice. Justin Storandt was very helpful in the whole experience. He took his time, never rushed, listened, and answered all of my questions. He walked with me through every department and stayed with me until it was time for me to drive away in my new car. I felt like I could honestly trust him for his opinion, ethics, morale, and friendship. His outstanding performance and his customer service skills make him a great role model for possible future sales associate candidates. I am so thankful for this outstanding expierence. I dont look at it like I bought a car. I look at it more like I bought wisdom, a whole new expierence. Unitl next time Justin and McGrath CiaoAlexis Homich

Having bought 6 vehicles in 10 years, I have been in the place where you dread when it is time to buy a new vehicle. I started researching used vans, and found a beautiful minivan on Ebay for sale. I immediately called the number on the listing and spoke with Greg Luzinski. Never one time did I get apprehensive, worried, or nervous while dealing with Greg. He was very kind, polite, friendly, and extremely helpful to our family. By far, in all of our vehicle purchases, this was the most enjoyable experience. Greg went above and beyond to help us and make us feel comfortable and welcome during our visit. We will definitely be back for Greg's help with our next vehicle purchase. Also, we want to thank Michael Agnello for his help in our purchase. Michael was so friendly and did everything in his power to help us, and we are grateful for his help. These staff members were amazing, and we wouldn't hesitate to send our family and friends to them, and will be return customers ourselves. Thank you so much Greg and Michael for your time, help, and friendliness... you made buying a vehicle enjoyable and stress free.

I was shopping for a 2013 Lexus ES hybrid at several local dealerships, McGrath Lexus of Westmont being one of them. The sales consultant I dealt with was Glenn Ginter. I made several visits to each dealership, making test drives and speaking with each salesperson at length. I ended up purchasing my car at a different dealership than this one. I then sent e-mails out to each salesperson I dealt with to thank them for their time, that this particular dealership gave me an offer I could not refuse. Glenn then sent me the following response..."I am disappointed with the fact you did not give me the courtesy of matching or beating their price with all the time I spent with you. You wanted costco pricing and that is what I gave you. I don't get it. 2 weeks of texting, emails, test drives. A big waste of time for me.... thx........"Wow. I was not even expecting a response from anyone, but to read this? Is this standard practice for sales consultants at McGrath Lexus of Westmont?This was the most inappropriate, unprofessional message I have EVER received from any salesperson, car or not. I want Glenn along with his dealership to know that the offer I could not refuse was even BETTER than what I was asking. And you know what? I gave my business to them. Why? The price was right but I gave my business to this particular salesperson who has always been not only respectful to me but KNOWLEDGABLE about the ES hybrid. Whenever I had a question he answered it immediately and correctly. Glenn always had to "look into it" or "Oh? Yeah, that feature's pretty neat." Now that is what I would actually call a waste of MY time. I gave my business to a dealership that when I walked in and was asked if I wanted a refreshment, I was actually walked over and shown the waiting area rather than someone pointing across the showroom, "Oh. Then it's over there. Around the corner" as I was at McGrath Lexus of Westmont.I have told many of my friends who are car shopping to not even consider McGrath Lexus of Westmont. I am the consumer and it is my money, I don't need to make phone calls to four other people I am dealing with to get an okay to jump on a great offer at a dealership I like.

I just absolutely love Rita Barkstrom at McGrath Lexus of Westmont. She is such a warm caring person, that you don't feel as she is selling you a car, but more of an experience. Firstly, when you walk in McGrath, you can feel the luxury. The show room is beautiful and luxurious. In a matter of minutes, I was greeted by at least 3 sales people, but once i told them I had an appointment with Rita, they all graciously "backed off" and wished me well. I thought that was nice. My new purchase was my third with Rita and fourth with the Lexus product. My first was not at McGrath, but upon servicing my car there, I "changed" dealerships and never went back to the other one. The level of professionalism and customer service is so refreshing, from the sales people, service and just car washing staff, you couldn't ask for better service or even get it anywhere else. With the state of the economy, you want to feel as if you matter and that although you might feel a little apprehensive splurging on a luxury vehicle, it is worth it! They really work to get you the best price and it is a great dependable product. Ever since we met Rita, we have always gone back to her. She is always available to answer any questions honestly and promptly. You never feel rushed. In fact when I know its time for a new vehicle, I just call her. We just can't say enough about her! I recommend everyone shop with her!

I recently worked with Justin Storandt to purchase a Lexus, and it was a wonderful experience. I can be a tough customer, and Justin took time to determine my needs, and worked at my pace to find me the perfect car to suit my personal preferences and my budget. He was diligent in his follow up with me, and he was sincere in our interactions. Although he was persistent in his follow up, he was resourceful throughout the process and answered all of my questions. He gave me a great deal! Also, he called me a few days after I purchased the car to make sure that I was satisfied. I will definitely be recommending Justin and McGrath Lexus of Westmont to anyone in my network who is looking to purchase a vehicle. 5 stars for great service!!

After reading the outstanding reviews of Steve Gibson, what else is there to say about the WORLD'S BEST SALESMAN? Except this: I just drove home in our TENTH newLexus purchased at McGrath through Steve. There is no better salesman, there is no better dealership, there is no better car buying experience. Period. And it does not end the day you drive your new car home. Best of the best in every department.Beth and Tim O'Day

Below is an email I sent Larry after he was able to get me an amazing car at a great price. This was not solicited, I had to let him know how much I appreciated what he did for me.Good Morning Larry,I just wanted to take the time to personally thank you for all you did for me yesterday. You definitely made it a great day. All the way home I couldn't, and still can't, believe my good luck and good fortune to have found that car and such a great person to work with. I know you went through a lot of trouble for me and it meant so much. I would happily recommend your dealership and you personally to anyone who is looking to buy a car. The car is great and I couldn't be happier. Please also thank Mike for me for working to get the financing done. Anyway, Larry a heartfelt thanks to you and your staff. I hope you have a great day, and wonderful weekend. Best Regards,Jeff

We just bought ES 350 from McGrath and this is our 2nd car from McGrath Westmont. We are very happy with the service and customer service specially our sales associate Larry Pebelske. He showed us what we were looking for, Larry was very clam, professional, understanding and really hardworking. We gave McGrath Lexus business previously by sending our friends and family but the service we have recieved this time we did not get that on our last purchase. We will keep recommending McGrath Lexus Westmont to our friends and family specially "Larry Pebelske". We give McGrath Lexus Westmont and Larry Pebelski 100%. Elisha and Sadia Victor

McGrath Lexus had the used BMW I was looking for. Scott was ready with keys in hand when I arrived. After a short test drive, I knew this was the car for me. The complimentary lunch was a very nice touch. The detailing service could have been a little better. There were waterspots and swirl marks left on the car. We asked to have them removed, but this was not done. Other than that, the experience was good. I am very pleased with the vehicle.

He was warm and welcoming when we first introduced ourselves, and actively listened when we were explaining our situation to him. He gave us many options and suggestions throughout our decision making process. He never made us feel pressured or tried to guilt us into making any decisions that we weren't ready to make. He walked us to every department and waited until we were finished. He was the first and last person that we saw when we were moving from department to department. He worked vigorously to meet/match our price and payment methods. It's very rare to find a car salesman that makes you feel like you can trust them, but Joe Scala was one of the very few that i felt that i could trust. I would recommend him to all of my friends and family that are interested in buying a new/used Lexus. Thank you, and great job, Joe!

Scott is one of the most friendly, helpful and patient salesmen I have ever dealt with. While looking for an IS250, he worked with my father and I to find the best car that fit each of our preferences. It was refreshing to have a salesman so passionate about customer satisfaction -- he even stayed past dealership hours to accommodate our schedules. Not only did we reach an agreement on a great price, he went above and beyond to ensure he met as many of our needs as possible before (and after) driving off the lot. Scott is a fabulous salesman who truly cares about his clients, and not just about making the sale. I would recommend him to anyone interested in purchasing a Lexus. You will leave feeling like royalty.

My husband and I were power shopping on last Saturday.I always wanted Lexus RX350, actually it was RX300.Finally we had a chance to get one and it was really hard to decide what color combination. I definitely wanted Black exterior with Seddle interior color combination. It wasn't easy to find one. I happened to call McGrath of Westmont and Larry Pebelske answered my call. I asked him what I was looking for and he told me he had one there. My husband and I were so happy. We drove there right away and Larry was more than friendly. He seemed like genuenly care for us. It was a little bit more than we wanted to pay for but with friendly sales person like Larry and all the rest of the staff made up for it. We are very happy with our purchase and definitely will recomend this dealership to everyone.Thank you very much for your all help, Larry!!

I would say I felt a little bit taken advantage of. I didn't like the fact that I was told one thing, and another was done. I was told I was to receive free XM, for 2 months. I purchased the vehicle on Monday and it went out by Saturday of the same week. I felt very taken advantage of on the trade in and the price of the used vehicle. Scott assured me that he could work with that price when I was told the price outside when I was test-driving it. I didn't pay anywhere close to what I expected to pay for the car. Scott was good, until he got what the sale closed...and then when I tried to contact him about various items, he treated me with somewhat disrespect over a text message. My boyfriend and I then went in to talk to the sales manager trying to get some resolution to why we were being ignored or treated the way we were. He did make me feel the way we should have been treated from the start of our car-buying experience. He did give us free XM for one year, an extra free oil-change, and a free detail to be whenever I wanted as long as I owed the vehicle. I did appreciate him taking the time to listen to us, and accomadating us when we felt uneasy about our experience with Scott.Thank you for trying with all your efforts to make your wrongs right!

Today we purchased our third Lexus from Steve. Each time we have worked with him, Steve has shown across-the-board and uncompromised excellence: in his knowledge of the cars he sells; in his low-key and welcoming style; in his attention to details; and in his respect for his customers' decisions and questions.We have only appreciation and praise for Steve Gibson and for the emplary work he does at this dealership.

Found a 2010 Nissan Armada online, called McGrath, and talked to Scott Raymond. He was friendly, honest, courteous, and professional. Scott stayed after hours to accomidate our hectic schedule and spared no effort in making our car buying experience exceptional. Beautiful dealership, friendly staff, excellent sales team....I would certainly reccomend McGrath to my friends.

In all my life of vehicle-purchasing experience, Christi is the best sales consultant I ever fortunately met. She is professional, efficient, effective, sincere, honest, diligent, and friendly. She is the kind of employee that any employers would value. By the way, I must congratulate for the excellent management your dealership ensues. This is by far the best car dealership I ever experienced. Only through excellent management that qualified persons such as Christi could be hired. My wife and I are completely satisfied with the R350 that Christi helped us to purchase. Reviewed by Dr. David Jeng

I recently purchased a Lexus from Scott Raymond and he did an outstanding job. Unlike a lot of car salesman, he was honest, patient and fair. He was also very personal and friendly. I could tell he wasn't only about making money, but truly had my best interest in mind. I highly recommend him to other people, family and friends. Great Job!

I have bought 7 cars in the last 20 years and we never had a great buying experience like the one I have 2 weeks ago when I bought my wife's Lexus RX 330 at McGrath Lexus of Westmont. If you go there, look for a man named Justin (AKA Big "J"). Not only that he treated us fairly and professionally but he also understand the buyer's side of the coin. In other words, he gave us very good deal and we drove out of the parking lot feeling very happy.

found this place on autotrader.com. the car at this place was my second choice, didn't even want to come at first since i got a pretty bad experience at the dealer that i visited earlier of the day for my first choice car. So glad that i went, i asked the sales manager to refer me an agent that wants to make a deal. the sales manager was very nice and friendly, and refer me to Joe. Joe, what a no nonsense guy, i feel comfortable talking to him, and since the sale price on autotrader.com was good enough, i didn't even nogociate the price and just accept the price on the web. Joe being a nice guys, throw in a new set of floor mat for me. I would definataly consider this place first and call Joe when buying a car.

Very happy with McGrath , I'm sure everyone really doesn't like to go car shopping and deal with a pushy sales person. I would have to say my experience at McGrath and dealing with Rita had to be the best experience I've ever had purchasing a new vehicle. Rita was very thorough with explaining all the options on my new member to the family. Thank you so much and I will definitely refer anyone who is looking for a new vehicle .

My experience at McGrath Lexus was a very pleasant one. I felt I received very personalized and tailored service. I have a pretty tight schedule, and my sales consultant Larry Pebelske worked with me on this. He was very conscious of my time, and was always available at our preset appt. times. He was very knowledgeable, friendly and especially enthusiastic ! He even gave my little guy a bunch of give-aways (posters,etc.).I am very impressed with the facility, their organization and personalized treatment of their customers. They seem to really take care of, and provide for their customers.Our delivery specialist Kraig Dykman spent over 2 hrs. with my wife and I going over the vehicle and all it's operating systems and details answering all of our questions, and seemed genuinely excited about it.Great job McGrath.....I will definitely purchase another Lexus from them !John R.

I had a great experience with McGrath Lexus and Scott Raymond! Scott was very friendly over the phone and in person. He helped me get the price of the car down to where I needed it to be. He also went out of his way in getting me the extra key fob from the original owner. If you're thinking of buying a new or used vehicle, you should definitely consider McGrath Lexus. Their facility is comfortable and one of the nicest in the area. Ask for Scott Raymond...you won't be disappointed!

I really do not know how I could possibly be more satisfied with the process of buying a car. This is my second purchase from this dealership. I was so happy with my first Lexus and the dealership service that I really did not even consider going anywhere else to buy a car. I think Mel and the team at McGrath managed to exceed my highest expectations. They are all that good! When my new car did not come in for several weeks, they gave me a loaner to make the wait very tolerable and convenient. Everyone who works there seems to be in a good mood and happy in their work. Their management team must be doing a good job to keep their employees that happy. I really could not say enough positive things about this dealership, but I will stop here, I guess.

We just bought our 4th Lexus from McGrath. The last two were from Steve Gibson. He is always the consummate professional, always a pleasure to deal with. We have preferred McGrath from the start. I have heard people say that the sales department sells the first car and the service department sells the next. That's partially true - the service department is great and certainly impacts the decision to buy. But I have to say, that of all the dealers I have dealt with (and I have bought a lot of cars in my 60 years)this sales staff is the best to deal with that I have ever experienced.

What a great experience! I had seen the car of my dreams online and made an online appointment to see the vehicle. When we arrived, I first of all was struck by how expansive the dealership was as compared to the McGrath of Chicago. It gave the feel of laid back yet professional. After meeting Larry Pebelske, I knew we were in good hands. After the test drive, he did everything possible to make us comfortable and was willing to work with us any way possible so I could have that car. He made us feel completely at home and relaxed. It was a pleasure doing business here, and I will truly send any friends in the market for a vehicle here. You can be sure that when I am ready for my next car, I will be back! Michael Connery was also great, and Ben was wonderful going over the whole vehicle with us. I really was impressed with the way the vehicle rolls out after the curtain goes up. Very dramatic! My compliments to the design team. I am thrilled with my car, too. I have always wanted an IS 250 and I finally have one. The deal was great, the people phenomenal, and may I say, the experience was perfection. Thank you and our best regards to all. eva & kathleen

Briefly,in my 50 years of buying cars---the last 40 of which have been Toyota cars---the service Mr. Lawson provided me was by far the best---no pressure, honest up-front answers, and I believe, a fair price. Last---Mr. Lawson's detailed praise of both McGrath and Toyota was instructive and , I believe , heartfelt. I will suggest Mr. Lawson and McGrath to anyone who asks---Michael GaspariPS. I hope Mr. Lawson is given the opportunity to read these comments.

Scott Raymonnd was very accommodating. I called following a listing on autotrader.com. He was a lot more about my needs than his, a rare trait. Chris also gave me the friendliest shoeshine ever. I believe it was Craig who went over the car's functions with me. He was great. After I flew in and crabbed over to the wrong dealership, Scott was not phased even though he came in early to meet me. He went out of his way to make sure I was comfortable and get the paperwork completed as quick as possible.A service rep at the Chicago store got Willy, a long time employee, to shuttle me to the Westmont store. That was a very enjoyable ride. Willy, Scott, and another unknown associate talked very positively about the McGrath organization. After spending a few hours there, I knew their feelings were genuine and well founded.

I located a great looking used Lexus on McGrath's Internet sales page. The information and high-quality pictures of the car made it easy to see that the car was for me and would easily fill a need that I had for a second car. However, I never purchased a used car, or any car for that matter, in this fashion. Needless-to-say, I had some doubts and was more than just a little nervous about moving forward, but I did. Now, after the fact, I must confess that buying a car from the McGrath dealership was the best car-purchasing experience of my life. This was due, in large part, to one person - Mr. Mel Owens.From my very first call to the actual moment the keys were handed over after the sale, Mel Owen's caring personality and professionalism were consistently top-drawer. He thoroughly answered all of my questions, and, even though my purchase was not for one of the more expensive vehicles in the company's fleet, Mel made me feel like I was buying one of the them, and without one moment of over-the-top sales hype. He was long-suffering with my numerous questions (often repeating them) and clearly understood, acknowledged in his own way, and put to rest any reservations about buying a car unseen. Mel's integrity really came through in how he handled all aspects of this sale.Now, for some unexpected icing on the cake and what I consider the read story-maker! The totally unexpected example of Mel's dedication to his customers was demonstrated when at the eleventh hour, when the person who was going to make the trip to Westmont with me for the purchase could no longer go with me. I had no other person who could make the trip and I was certain that the entire deal had to be called off. However, I must have forgotten with whom I was working! Once again, Mel came through by offering to personally driving the car to my location in Iowa.I do not believe that this offer was done so that a sale could go through. This was not that expensive of a purchase. What was behind Mel's offer to do this was that Mel clearly knew how much I wanted the car, he heard the disappointment in my voice when I called him about having to cancel my trip, and he made the decision to drive to my hometown the very next day for the delivery. I might also add that Mel's charming wife accompanied him and that meant that both Mel and his wife got up at 2:00 a.m. on a Sunday morning and drove for seven hours to make the delivery at the promised 9:00 a.m. time. Outstanding! Where do you find such dedication and service this days? Well, I know of one place - McGrath Lexus of Westmont!Without a single doubt or hesitation, I would recommend making your next Lexus purchase from this dealership and I would highly recommend discussing your purchase with Mr. Mel Owens. What a wonderful person. What a great dealership. What a fantastic experience! Roger J. EichWaterloo, Iowa

I just leased my second new Lexus from McGrath Lexus and am so delighted. Of course I love the 2013 ES350 (as I did the 2010 ES) but have been especially impressed with the assistance from the staff. From the salespeople to the managers to all the technicians. They are great! On both purchase occasions I have been on a very tight time schedule and have been extremely pleased with the high priority treatment given to me. They even managed to fit in the basic how-tos of the car details and operation. I would highly recommend this dealership -- both for their product and their staff.

I drove all the way from Angola, IN to purchase my Lexus ES 300 from this Lexus dealership and they were great to work with. Sales Rep. Glenn Ginter treated me with respect and did an oustanding job during the test drive, negotiating and transaction of the vehicle. I would recommend this dealership to anyone. When I am ready for an upgrade or another vehicle, I plan on returning to this dealership. Even though they are three hours away, they have earned my respect and future business.

I was very impressed with McGrath Lexus from start to finish. Alisa Griffen-Dunlap followed up with me from time to time over the past 12 plus months on my interest in purchasing a new hybrid, but she was never pushy. When I made the decision to move ahead, she worked to find me the exact vehicle I was looking for. All of the support people at the dealership that handled the transaction and educated me about the vehicle were also great. Overall, it was an excellent experience.

Our new 2013 RX350 is our fourth Lexus and Steve Gibson has been our salesperson for the last two. We could not be happier, we owned a 2011 RX350 and decided on the 2013 to include the Navigation System. McGrath Lexus is our choice of dealership because of the excellent service we receive, the friendliness of the staff and, of course, the product. Steve has been instrumental in our last two purchases and we wouldn't have it any other way. Steve is a gentleman, knowledgable of his product, concerned that we are pleased with our purchase and always helpful. We thank Steve for assisting us in our purchase. When our purchase was finalized Steve introduced us to Kraig Dykman. He led us through all the new bells and whistles. Kraig was very thorough and helpful with information - even on a phone call regarding our Navigation System. We will make a visit to Kraig once more just be certain we are working the System properly. Not to be left out - the Staff in the Service Area are an excellent group, always helpful and committed to giving their clients excellent service. Overall, an extremely professional, knowledgeable, committed Dealership and we look forward to continuing our relationship with McGrath.

I am a previous Lexus owner and was looking for another Lexus to purchase in between that vehicle and another one in the next few years. My previous Lexus was purchased from another Lexus dealership. While I had absoltely no complaints with my previous Lexus dealership, the stars aligned with McGrath Lexus of Westmont. I not only found a great RX at a great price, I also found outstanding service. I arrived late after a day full of meetings. Greg Luzinski took me for a test drive and stayed with me long after many of his co-workers had already left. I purchased a beautiful pre-owned RX that night and Greg had it delivered to my door the very next day. McGrath may have just earned a lifelong customer!

This was our first purchase of a Lexus. Our sales person, Scott Raymond, was very knowledgeable of the used car inventory and car options available on each making it easier to filter down to the cars that best matched our needs. We were very pleased with the one Scott thought would be best and it was the one we drove home with. We've never bought a car so fast. The McGrath dealership made the car purchase an easy process, getting the car ready for us, completing the paperwork and the individual in the service area was super helpful. We're looking forward to the complimentary car washes. Thanks Scott and team for the great service.

After searching extensively for a used Lexus LX 470 on the Internet, I came to McGrath Lexus of Westmont because there were two here that I was potentially interested in. I called on my way to the dealership and spoke with Mel Owens and he arranged for me to test drive one of them. I drove it and wasn't crazy about the condition of that particular vehicle (I'm very particular), so I looked at the other one. It was pretty much exactly what I was looking for, so I told him I was interested and wanted to see how much I would get if I traded in my current vehicle. The sales manger told Mel the amount they'd give me for my trade, which was $3,000 less than another dealer had offered me, so I didn't like that and thought the deal was going to fall through and I was ready to walk away. However, when I told Mel about the offer I had from the other dealer, he said that they could work with the other dealer to take my vehicle in on trade, sell it to that dealer, and give me the full trade-in credit--they'd just have to contact that dealer and confirm that he wanted the vehicle and was going to pay what I had said he would for the vehicle. I had never heard of this before, so I was pleasantly surprised because it kept the deal alive. Mel said that if I had a better offer for my vehicle than what they could give me, they'd work with that dealer to facilitate the trade because they still wanted my business and wanted to sell me the vehicle I was looking at. It all worked out and I got the Lexus LX 470 I wanted, so I was very pleased with my experience.McGrath Lexus of Westmont is the nicest dealership I've ever been to--it's more like the lobby of a five-star hotel than a car dealership--and everyone is friendly and professional. Mel was great to work with and came through with every picky little demand I had. He even introduced me to Tracy Isselhardt, the general manager, who had okayed some of my picky demands like providing a hitch cover, a missing cargo net clip, and a missing cover for the lock/unlock lever on one of the third-row seats. Tracy was very accessible, which is unusual for a general manager. When I took delivery of the vehicle, my delivery specialist, Ben Kruchten, was excellent and took all the time I needed to go over every inch of the vehicle and I never felt rushed. He knew everything about the vehicle and showed me how everything worked.McGrath Lexus of Westmont is a first-class dealership with unprecedented customer service. So even though I live 1.5 hours away, I will be back here instead of going to my local Lexus dealership. I highly recommend it!

I had a really nice experience at McGrath Lexus in Westmont. I had visited a few times previously and knew that I would come back here when I was ready to purchase. I saw the car I was looking for online and took a chance on visiting the dealer. I didn't think that I would ever buy a car on the spot. After a quick ride and a review of all of the extras I was receiving from my sales rep Scott Raymond, there was no doubt that this was the car for our family. We had some time to wait for all of the financing to be worked out and Scott and the dealer treated the family to lunch. What a nice gesture. I'm looking forward to a long relationship with Mcgrath. Thanks Scott!

This is the 4th LEXUS I have purchased from McGrath; three of those sales have been with Alisa Dunlap. She's the greatest. The last Lexus which I just picked up had been an ongoing transction for about four months due to some medical problems I was having. I canceled several appointments with Alisa and each time, she was most understanding and patient. I also changed my mind about colors; again she patiently worked with me. I can't say enough about Alisa and the MCgrath dealership other than they treat you like royalty.

I would recommend Scott personally as a salesman and McGrath Lexus of Westmont as a trusted dealership to purchase your future vehicle from. 2010 Lexus LS 460 Black/Beige interior

After deciding that we would like to look at the Lexus RX350 and choosing Mr. Joseph Scala, a Sales Consultant with McGrath Lexus, we found him to be a class individual who totally satisfied our needs with all the information he presented to us. We chose to wait several days before making a final decision. On our return by appointment, Mr. Scala had an RX350 cooled down for our test drive. The deal he presented to us afterwards was completely to our satisfaction, and exactly what we had been anticipating. There was no haggling on either side. This was our 4th vehicle that we purchased from Toyota since 2006 and our first Lexus. Ours was a very pleasant experience. We did the math and fortunately we choose Joseph Scala of McGrath.

Our Salesman was Scott Raymond and let me tell you, McGrath Lexus does not dissapoint. I brought my very first car (2012 Lexus is 250) and I love everything about it. The whole experience from first walking into the dealership to driving the car off the lot was great. I would give McGrath Lexus a 5/5 for everything that makes a car dealership succesful. Scott was very knowledgable about the car and the service team is able to teach you wonders. I would recommend this dealership to anybody that is looking for a great car at a fair price.

On June 21, 2012 I purchased the Lexus RX 330 from Jack Martel at McGrath Lexus. Jack was very knowledgable and friendly during my transaction. His customer service skills were outstanding and I was not pressured into making a decision. I had did my research before coming to the dealer so I khow I got an extremely good deal. My overall experience was very meomorable and I know I will be a customer for years to come with McGrath Lexus. I highly recommend Jack Martel if you are in the market for a LEXUS. Jack Martel is an excellent saleman and he knows his kraft.

I stopped by McGrath Lexus to initially test drive a pre owned Lexus. Upon my entry into the building, I did not realize that the dealership was closing for the evening. Mel Owens was on his way out, but was kind enough to give me initial information about the dealership and invited me back the following day. My son came with me and after a lenghtly conversation, I test drove both new and pre owned. I wanted to ponder the different vehicles I test drove and told Mel that I would get back to him within a couple of weeks. He is extremely professional and polite. He listented to my needs and wants. I felt that buying transaction went very smoothly and would recommend Mel and the dealership.

I had a very pleasant experience working with Greg Luzinski. He was very thorough and presented me with a variety of car options that were available. Most importantly, he did a phenomenal job working within my budget and limited time frame for shopping. In the end, I purchased a car that I absolutely love and I give Greg my highest recommendation.

I just purchased my first Lexus RX 350. Scott Raymond was my Sales Person. He was very personable and helpful. He was very informative and not your typical pushy car salesman. He even came to my house to pick up the title because of my work schedule. He even played with my dog and through the ball for her awhile. I highly recommend Scott if you go to McGrath Lexus.

Eric Claeson was our salesman for our just purchased Lexus GX 470 (our second purchase from McGrath Lexus of Westmont). From inquiry to purchase to enjoyment of the vehicle, Eric was there every step of the way and made sure that we were taken care of. Eric made it his goal of making sure that we were getting the best price possible, and made it his duty to make sure that he wasn't satisfied until we were. It can clearly be seen that Eric is a truly knowledgeable salesman and a person of great respect. The process of the sale could not have been any smoother, and we will definitely be coming back for our next Lexus!

We came back to Lexus to lease another RX 350. Scott was our salesman--he got us a new one to test drive right away. He was friendly and very helpful and attentive to what we wanted. We drove out with our new, red Rx 350. When anyone asks about our Lexus, we definitely will talk about Scott and McGrath in Westmont.

I came to Mcgrath in search of a vehicle and was created by Greg Luzinski. Although it was our first stop and planned on shopping much more Greg proved to us that we needed to go no further. We got a great car at a great facility and we got Greg as well!!!

My husband & I came to McGrath Lexus of Westmont looking for a new car. Justin was our salesman and I think that we were one of his first customers. He's very friendly and courteous and patient helping us hone in on what details we wanted in our car. We did our homework ahead of time and knew what car we wanted but needed to fine tune things. Justin was very helpful. We would recommend him and think he's a great salesperson for McGrath.

Our whole experience with Christi was wonderful. My mother had been driving my deceased father's BMW for the past 15 years and so this new car issue was hard for her to deal with. Christi kept my mom upbeat. She never made my mom or us pressured. She just made our whole situation so nice for her. She has called to ask my mom if she is doing ok. So just want you all to know that you all have a great person in Christi Brooks at McGrath Lexus of Tampa.....Thank you Christi for everything!!!The Khan Family

We chose our Lexus because there was no price haggling and we received a fair and quick appraisal of our trade in. We ultimately chose our vehicle because the speed and quality of service was better than at any other dealership we visited. Art had quick follow up via text and made the process easy. We love our GX, but we ultimately bought it because of the service Art and McGrath provided.

My experience with McGrath Lexus and specifically with Rita Barkstrom was exceptional! She found the right car for me, was very knowledgeable about the features and made sure that I was completely satisfied. Rita goes out of her way to be helpful, pleasant and welcoming every time I contact her. Although the technology was a little daunting at times, Bob Cowden made learning the features of the car fun! I have been back with questions and he takes the time to be certain I completely understand the systems. Every person that I have encountered has been helpful, courteous and pleasant and I am glad that I purchased my car at McGrath.

My husband and I had been casually searching for a used Lexus for several months. We were planning on giving our current vehicle to our daughter and son-in-law who are expecting their 2nd child. Suddenly, our search became more urgent when we heard that our daughter's car broke down while driving on the Eisenhower. I called and set appt with Scott Raymond on a Monday and we took delivery on 2009 Lexus by the end of that week. Scott was very easy to work with and was very knowledgeable with used car market. Overall service at McGrath Lexus was very professional and made buying pre-owned car an easy experience. Martha D

My husband and I were very pleased with the overall experience at this dealer. Our 8-year old was entertained with the fish pond so we could take care of business. Scott was very accommodating and helped us quickly resolve some minor issues about the used Lexus RX 300 were purchased. The guys in the back (Sorry don't know their names) did a great job. It was very satisfying to be able to update my IPASS then and there on the computer since I drove home on toll roads. I love my new vehicle and look forward to doing more business at McGrath.

My Experience was my first with Mcgrath Lexus in westmont and I have to say it was the best I have ever had with any dealership. I came from a long line of BMW's and this is my first lexus. I purchased the is350 and I think I will be jumping ship from BMW to Lexus. The service I recieved went above and beyond my expectation. Scott the sales associate and Michael Agnello the Finance Manager were extremely helpful in getting me into the right car at the right price. Your overall facility as well makes everything very convenient for my everyday life from the cafe to public internet computers. So thank you to everyone making me feel welcome to the Mcgrath Lexus family.

My wife and I had to purchase a vehicle urgently because we had sold our personal vehicle recently, and the company we work for needed the vehicle they allowed us to use as a perk for other fleet purposes, so we needed wheels! Our need was especially urgent because we were expecting our second son any day. Your eBay classified ad let us to the Escalade we purchased, which, in my opinion, is in far better condition than the listing illustrated. We had to check into the hospital to deliver our son, and were unable to visit your dealership, but Greg was extremely helpful in facilitating the vehicle's purchase and pickup without our actually being there in person. Our Escalade was delivered to us by a family member the morning we left the hospital with our new son. We're so happy with our purchase, and even happier that the irregularity of our circumstances didn't cause a hiccup, as we weren't going to be able to deal with it very well from the hospital. Thanks again to Greg and McGrath for a great experience!!!!

Well, I just purchased my 8th Lexus from McGrath Lexus in Westmont. I have to say the reasons that brought me there from day one are still evident 12 years later. I have used the same Sales Consultant every time, Steve Gibson. The fact that he has been there for that long should speck volumes for the staff and the Dealership as a whole. Steve and McGrath have never pushed me to buy a car, never played that car salesman game that I hate, YOU KNOW "let me get my manager", he come over shakes your hand tells you "Oh your kids are so cute".. McGrath Lexus is not a "Car Dealership", it's a place to go and buy a car the way I think you should buy one. Tonight was my appointment with one of McGraths Delivery Specialist, a gentleman by the name of Kraig. He spent 1 1/2 hours with me and my family and went over every single button on the car. He was patient with us and answered all of our question. Even taught me some new iphone tricks. When I left I felt very comfortable with the car and what it can do....McGrath, Steve and Kraig Thank you very much I am sure I will see you soon.Nick

I have been dreaming about a black on black Lexus SUV for the past 4 years. After a long month looking I found the best deal at McGrath Lexus in Westmont. I had emailed Greg Luzinski about keeping an eye out for what I was looking for - over a couple of weeks we emailed until finally a deal came in the door I couldn't pass up. I emailed Greg and showed up the same day to drive the car. It was perfect and Greg was both very knowledgeable and extremely helpful - highlighting the benefits of the Lexus Hybrid and the insane number of features it had. I decided to buy the car right away and Greg worked with me on both the price and to get an amazing financing rate of 0.9% - which is awesome for a certified Lexus. I will definitely be back to McGrath and make sure you ask for Greg - he will definitely take care of you and work to get you the best deal possible and the perfect ride.Thanks Greg.

I have rated this dealership with all 5's because they gave great service. I brought the care in because of what I thought was a scratch but turned out to be something else, whereas washing the care and doing the 1000 mile chekup all in a timely manner. Rita is excellent sh has been calling and making sure things are going well. I recommend her as top employee of the month.

Our experience purchasing the RX 350 was excellent. Joe Scala is a great person to work with, just as he had been in 2005 when I bought the first vehicle there. He came back to the dealership to meet with us, since we showed up without an appointment. Further, he gave us a fair price on the vehicle considering our loyalty to Lexus and to McGrath.The only poor experience was the first try at fixing a scratch on the rear drive door. It was certainly not at the level of standard we have come to expect from McGrath. The second attempt was great; we are very happy with the vehicle so far.

I purchased a 2011 Lexus RX350 this weekend with the help of Justin. It was definitely a different car buying experience than I had in the past... I felt i was not only buying a car, but an experience.I've only had the car for a couple days now, and unfortunately had a flat tire this morning. Surprisingly Justin called to make sure I was still loving the car. I told him about the flat tire, and within 20 minutes, someone was at my house fixing the tire. He even followed up to make sure they got here for me. Again, only a couple days in, but so far I'm pleased. I hope the experience is long term, unlike most dealerships, but it seems like it will be!

I was in the market for a pre-owned Lexus and stopped in to McGrath Lexus to see what might be available. Mel Owens greeted me and immediately impressed my wife and I with his ability to listen to our needs and willingness to help us find the right car. He showed us a few cars, and prepared various supporting information. We were able to agree on the perfect car for my needs and budget. The checkout process was flawless, with all elements such as financing, preparation, and explanation of the certified warranty and how to use the vehicle covered in detail. I would recommend McGrath Lexus and Mel Owens to anyone in the market for a pre-owned vehicle. It was actually an enjoyable experience.

This 2008 ES350 is the first Lexus I have owned. I traded in a Volvo C70. Before going to the dealer, I did my homework on Edmunds and Kelly Blue Book to determine the true value of the cars and I shopped cars online as well as at some dealers. I feel I got a fair price for my trade-in and also paid a fair amount for my Lexus from McGrath. But, my satisfaction goes beyond just the financial aspects of this deal.I think I got lucky when I walked into the dealership for the first time and they brought Mel Owens over to help me. Mel is such a warm and open individual that I immediately warmed to him. Considering a four year old car definitely gave me pause. Mel went over all the facts about this particular car and was very patient and informative as I considered the purchase. This vehicle (with only 12,575 Miles on it) seemed just too good to pass up! I went away that day to think about my options.The day I bought the car it was pouring rain (Who buys a car in the pouring rain?!) Mel had the car brought inside for me to see again. They dried it off and it looked great. Then, I took it for a test ride (out in the rain again!). Later in the day, when I actually bought it, they detailed it AGAIN for me! Mel handled everything efficiently and professionally... loan docs, license transfer, trade in documents. And, as others have said, he made me feel like I was his only customer...or maybe just his favorite! Mel handed me off to finance, Mike Connery, who was also very efficient, pleasant and professional. He helped me determine if the optional protective services were right for me - with no pressure, just explanations.Then came Kraig Dykman who walked me through all the features of my Lexus. Kraig was great! Also very patient (it was 8:30PM at this point!) He set up my garage door opener, showed me how to set up my cell phone on the Bluetooth, and demonstrated how my MP3 Player works in the car. I have a great car and as you can tell, I'm a happy customer. Looking forward to the McGrath service experience!

My husband and I had a wonderful experience (again) this time around at McGrath Lexus of Westmont. We went on a busy Saturday and were helped by Justin right away. We both had a different idea of what we wanted in our Lexus and Justin patiently test drove different RX350's until we both were on the same page. Justin was very professional and most importantly, conscious of our time. We were in and out of the dealership within a couple hours, riding home in the perfect Lexus for our growing family...My husband and I still both agree we will never shop anywhere else for our cars!

In a word "WOW!!!" Scott Raymond was the complete package!!! From start to finish Scott was attentive, personable, professional and above all else knowledigble! And what was really refreshing is that he went above and beyond to make certain that every question asked by either my wife or myself was answered thoroughly,honestly and with great respect for the both of us,with regards to how little knowledge we may have had on our vehicle of choice! In in my book, this is an all to often overlooked way to build customer loyalty, satisfaction and "REPEAT BUSINESS!" But, Scott got it right and for me and my wife that made Scott - "THE GAME CHANGER!" Lastly, your astoundingly,gorgeous showroom showcasing your even more beautiful fleet of Lexus'helped to seal the deal for us - so much so that we couldn't help but to agree to "PAY & DRIVE AWAY!!!" McGrath Lexus of Westmont - YOU GOT IT RIGHT THE FIRST TIME -A+

I am a two-time new Lexus owner from this dealership, and accompanied my parents to purchase a pre-owned RX350. Mel was extremely knowledgable, friendly and patient in answering all of our questions. He made sure that all of our concerns were addressed and the vehicle was in top shape upon delivery to us. I would highly recommend this dealership, and especially Mel, to anyone looking to purchase either new or pre-owned. I have also had the pleasure of dealing with Gary in the Service Dept, and he has always gone above and beyond to make sure and provide top quality service. This is by far the best dealership I have ever dealt with.

I came to this dealer to find a used car for my mother. Jack Martell was the sales men that assisted myself and my mother to find and purchase a certified used car. Jack treated us as family from the minute we walked through the door till we drove out with the car. He is very knowledgeable, caring and honest. He told me right of the bat he is going to give me the best price possible and he was a man of his word. I looked for many cars before finally deciding on a 2010 ES350. He was not there to haggle us or pressure us into anything we did not want. I have been in sales and customer service all my life including roles in training new sales men and women. Jack has it all. If and when I decide to buy another car I will be going to the only one I ever want to deal with, and that's Jack. I cant say enough on how grateful I am that he was there to help us. I hope Jack never leaves the dealer! Thank you Jack and McGrath for being there when we needed you most!

The selection process was easy, the buying process was easy and the pick up process was very informative. Steve made us feel very welcome and listened attentively to what we were looking for. Ben gave a great overview of the car features - and I was finally able to get my garage door opener to work in my other car as well. Last.but not least, the passion that everyone showed regarding the quality and capability of the Lexus vehicles made us feel even better about our selection.

We are extremely pleased both with our Lexus GS 350 and the service provided at McGrath. Justin did an excellent job providing information and selling the Lexus car and McGrath Dealership. There were a couple other options we were still considering but ended up buying our first Lexus on the first visit. Reasons include a great test drive. I love driving the car. It handles extrmemly well in town and on the highway. I also loved the fact Justin sent us out on our own.When we returned, Justin introduced us to a Service Manager. The Service Department is very impressive. Car washes, back massages and shoe shines are nice added extras. The Cafe and waiting areas are all very enjoyable. Mike Connery, Business Manager completed paperwork quickly and efficiently. The day after the sale Justin called to check in and make sure we were happy. Follow up is huge with me. It is greatly appreciated. He went above and beyond and should be a top seller for Lexus. I will be seeing the specialist who provides options training, Crag who also was beyond knowledgable and professional.

I recently traded my 09 RX for a 12 RX and received outstanding service. My sales associate Steve Gibson was as always friendly, professional, and thorough. I am a loyal customer and treated as such. I also would like to commend the service in Delivery, forgive me because I don't remember his name, but he was great and explained everything very well and made sure I understood. He was very patient and I loved that he programmed everything for me. He was very entertaining too! Mike Agnello in the Business Office was very efficient and extremely helpful in completing my transaction. I left feeling comfortable about my new vehicle and of course excited! I am confident that if I have any questions I could call and Steve or Mike and they would answer them for me promptly and honestly. Keep up the great service and thank you for making the entire experience seamless and positive.

By far, the excellent customer service is the reason for the outstanding rating. Scott Raymond is the quintessential salesman. He treated me as though I was the most important customer he has ever had. I appreciated the time and attention he gave me, and between Scott and Mike Agnello (again, another consummate professional),I was completely satisfied with my overall purchase experience. Not to mention, I love my SC430 convertible! I am a first time Lexus owner and I couldn't be more pleased. Looking forward to my continued relationship with McGrath Lexus.Gratefully,Karen Uhler

I called the dealership inquiring about the 2003 Dodge Ram 1500 they had for sale. I was put in contact with a salesman named Scott Raymond, and we could'nt have asked for a better person. Scott catered to all of our needs, he answered every question we had about the vehicle, he was definately a person you can trust when buying a car, whether it be new or used. We traveled to Chicago from Peoria, and Scott made our 3hr trip worth while. We got the vehicle we wanted at the price we could afford. I recommend you give Scott Raymond a call if you are looking for a vehicle. Thank you very much Scott, we will tell people here in Peoria that its worth the drive to come to Chicago and see you....Thanks againBryan Schuck

Scott Raymond our salesman was great to work with. Honestly, the experience of purchasing the pre owned through Scott was THE MOST ENJOYABLE car sales experience my wife and I have ever known. The employees are so polite and friendly. They honestly care about you as a person and want you to go home happy with your purchase. I and my wife drive all the way from Gurnee because of the McGrath Lexus of Westmont dealership review I saw in internet... They make it well worth.I would definitely recommend any and all of my friends and family to shop at McGrath Lexus of Westmont when looking for a new vehicle or a pre-owned vehicle. Scott deserves a raise and we were not just saying that, he was exceptional. We look forward to continued business with you.

We had our choice of several Lexus dealers in the three state area and chose to bypass closer dealerships to work with McGrath. Eric was a straight shooter right from the first phone call and was always pleasant and helpful. When we arrived at the dealership we were greeted by all staff we saw with a friendly smile and "hello". The facility and amenities while we waited for our car to be made ready were first rate. Thanks, Eric Claeson and thanks McGrath.

The entire experience purchasing our Lexus was outstanding. This is our 4th Rx, and each one has surpassed the last one. Steve Gibson has been our sales consultant since the first purchase in 1997. It is a pleasure to deal with someone so knowledgeable about cars. He is friendly, professional, and courteous. He makes car buying a pleasure!!! Everyone involved in the process was outstanding including Michael Connery and Kraig Dykman. Kraig is wonderful, the delivery of the car with thoughtful explanations of its features was beyond compare. We have never had a better delivery process in picking up a new car. Overall McGrath Lexus is a really outstanding dealership. We hope to have many more years being a customer of yours.

Jack Martel was a highly knowledgeable, professional, and caring employee. Without hesitation he examined my needs, and directly me to the perfect car. I have recommended Jack to my friends, family, and coworkers because I am positive they will receive the same superior experience that I was lucky enough to receive! Thank you again Jack Martel and McGrath Westmont, I will be returning again in the future!

I'm always concerned about the traditional car salesman going back & forth with his manager to negotiate a price. I told Abe that I wanted their best deal up front. If it was good, I would accept. If not, I would decline and move on. Abe Premani respected my wishes. When I traded in my old GX for a newer used GX, it was a painless process. I best liked that Abe seemed to "hustle" for me. He was hustling everywhere for me. And the gentlemen who provided me a thorough orientation to the GX was extremely valuable. Good experience.

Our experience at McGrath Lexus was exceptional. Scott Raymond was helpful, attentive and had a great sense of humor. They helped us find our perfect car and went the extra mile to accommodate my family. The GM, Tracey was beyond kind and so sincere. Overall, we had a great car buying experience at McGrath and will definitely be buying our next car from them.

Mr. Fred Cramer was exceptional to work with; he was polite, and curteous. He was easy mannered and this was demonstrated when we made an offer. He made doing the paperwork easier, and when it came time to sit in our new car, he was attentive in showing us the features we would use when we drove the new car home. The finance process was painless. I liked the showroom personally which helped make the purchase more pleasurable. I would recommend Mr. Cramer of McGrath Lexus to anyone interested in buying a Lexus. His service was great and the buy fantastic.

I had been looking for either a new or slightly used Lexus ES 350 for several weeks. A lot of games being played by a lot of dealers and sales people. I went on the internet and saw that Kathy Mallet was the internet sales manager at McGrath in Westmont and thought I would give her a call. She was great right from the start. She provided me with several options and described each one as well as her recommendation. She told me that she would meet any other trade in quote I had on my trade in even if it were not in writing which was unique. I found a car on the McGrath web site that was in their inventory and we worked up a price on that car over the phone. Kathy was able to discount the car somewhat and offer a great deal on Lexus financing. when I got to the dealer she told me that the car we discussed had actually sold but not to worry, she had another one that had several additional options that she would give me FOR NO ADDITIONAL COST! She was amazing. I got more than I wanted and no games just an honest price and value in a Lexus. I would highly recommend Kathy Mallet for anyone who is looking for a new Lexus.

I went to the dealership to buy a 2005 Toyota Sienna after looking online. The response from Scott Raymond was so quick even after office hours.It was the best used car buying experience for me.Overall I am pretty satisfied with my car and will definitely go back to this dealership and recommend others.

I was looking for a used IS250 in the market and found the color I was looking for at Mcgrath Westmont. My experience was great primarily because of a very friendly staff and the price of the car. I came to realize after my visit that this was a good choice on my part to be associated with this dealership.

I was an out of state buyer, looking for an exact combo of features on a RX 350. Rita was very professional and courteous. When she could get close to the price I wanted to pay my, husband and I went to Chicago and picked up the vehicle. We were treated wonderfully by Rita and all the other associates we met. Kraig spent several hours training us. I had a 2001 RX300 and all the bells and whistles on the RX350 were new to me, he was very patient. I wish I lived closer to take advantage of their great extras. When it is time for another Lexus we will definitely call Rita. This is how buying a car should be. Thank you Rita, Kraig, and Ben.

My husband and I came to Lexus looking for a 2006 Jeep Commander that he had seen on the internet. When we arrived, the car was not on the lot. He had spoken with Greg the day before on the internet, so we were disappointed when we did not see the vehicle. Greg greeted us, and immediately sought out to find the Jeep. When he did locate the vehicle, he was upfront and honest that the vehicle had a dent in it, and gave us a very comfortable "out" if we did not want to take the test drive. After driving the vehicle, Greg was trememdous in getting not only securing what we wanted in value for our trade in, but immediately took ownership of the issue with the dent and scheduled our appointment to get it fixed, without question. The spectacular part of the whole buying process was after we filled out the initial paperwork and were waiting on the finance manager. Now I have bought several cars, and was prepared to spend hours at the dealership (which has been my previous experience) In this case, however, we were in the manager's office within 30 minutes. Manager Michael Agnello was very friendly and made the buying process easy. Within an hour, we were in our new car and headed out the door. I will be returning to these guys for all of my future car purchases, as well as recommending them to everyone.

We were looking for a used car. I searched three cars through the computer, two of them were at this dealership. We went to look at them, receptionist was nice then we met "Scott Raymond" very nice person with a smiley face, very helpful, explained everything clearly. We drove the car, He answered all our questions and made us feel very confident, and satisfactory purcahse. Before,We were afraid to buy used car because of the unknowns with the used-car. With Scott, we felt convincing to make the purchace and not to worry anything about this used car. He literally took that fear out of us. He has a great impressive personality and a graet yellow dog too. We will always like to come back to Scott for future car needs. And I will definitely recommend anybody I know who is looking to buy a car. We are glad that we had a chance to visit Mcgrath Lexus Of Westmont. Thanks for a new wonderful experience!

Me and my husband we had a very pleasant experience with everyone involved with the purchase of our new vehicle at McGrath Lexus of Westmont. Mel Owens was very professional, knowledgeable and a pleasure to have as my salesman. This was definitely the best car buying experience that I had ever had. The entire transaction from start to finish was a pleasure. Make sure you ask for Mel Owens when you stop in at McGrath Lexus. He makes you feel like you are his only customer. And, thank you for making my first experience with McGrath Lexus an enjoyable one.

I purchased a GS 350 from Glenn Ginter, he was very helpful... Mike Connery finalized everything and I am now the proud owner of a Lexus. Needless to say, if I need another in a year or so, I will contact them! My only gripe, is that I don't have a FULL tank of gas! :) Thanks.

On Saturday, I purchased a 2012 Lexus RX. From my initial on-line research and car inquiry to the financing the team was first class. I had the most pleasant experience with Alisa! She was very knowledgeable and never did I hear that Let me look into that and get back to you stuff. She was very helpful and definitely patient and over the course of two weeks, devoted countless hours ensuring me of all my options before making my decision. Alisa handled everything that I needed and never once put pressure on me to purchase a car. The entire purchase went smoothly from trading in my vehicle to driving my new RX out the door because of her. This was definitely the best car buying experience that I had ever had. I would highly recommend working with Alisa. She and the McGrath Team redefines customer service.

Came in Got the car I wanted...Scott worked very hard to make both of us happy. We were on a very tight time schedule and budget and all the staff helped get the car.. Donnie D. was our first saleperson in 2005 and I knew when we needed to upgrade to a newer model I could depend on the staff to make it happen...Scott did great and he has a very convincing dog, Cubby!! Kudos to you at Lexus McGrath, Westmont.

The experience of shopping and buying a Certified Lexus HS250 at McGrath was exceptional. From the very beginning until the very end, all of the staff was extremely courteous, professional and helpful. Scott was very helpful and gave me his cell phone# in case I had any questions any time...and that was before I had decided to buy the car. I couldn't have been happier with my choice of cars and dealers. You have exceeded my expectations. My daughter is thinking of buying her next car from Scott and McGrath. Keep up the great work!

I bought a certified used Lexus 350RX from Larry P. He was incredibly attentive and helpful - the nicest sales experience I have ever had at any car dealer and I have bought over 10 cars. The customer education process was quite a new experience.The car was experiencing a slight noise problem and although it took 2 visits to finally solve it, they did. I am an engineer, so know noise problems are very hard to diagnose. The service technician drove the car while I sat in the back seat to help him pinpoint the noise. Once that was done, he managed to fix the problem quickly - which came from broken fittings on the gas tank shield. Car now runs very quietly and even though it was a used car, McGrath treated me with great attention and real concern.Loaner car policy and car washes are a great bonus. stunning show room and customer waiting area. A super dealership in my view.

My wife and I were car shopping and just were not sold on any make or model of car until we visited McGrath Lexus in Westmont. Scott Raymond introduced himself to us and didn't once push us into any decision we didn't feel comfortable with. Scott is very professional and knows his business very well. I would recommend him, and the entire McGrath staff to anyone in the market for a new or quality used car. It is early in our dealing with McGrath, and Scott but I like our first impressions very much. Thank you agian for a wonderful car shopping experience!

Thanks to Greg Luzinski and his support staff at Westmont Lexus, this is the first time Ive ever bought a car and felt like I truly received an amazing deal and outstanding service. When Greg told me he was a former United States Marine I knew I was in good hands and would only receive the highest level integrity. I have already referred two of my family members because I know Greg will take care of them the way he did me. Greg has already called me twice to make sure Im happy with my purchase and also set up a service appointment with a very nice Lexus loaner car at no charge. All I can say is Thank You Greg for your amazing service to me and to our country.

I was on my way to another dealership when I passed McGrath Lexus and noticed they had a pickup parked along the highway which was the style I was looking for. I had been to about ten dealerships ealier in the day. I had pictures and prices in hand, but when I arrived to those dealerships those vehicles did not live up to my expectation. Shortly after I arrived I was put in touch with Scott Raymond. He was personable and very low pressure. The price they were asking for the vehicle was reasonable, but a little beyond my budget. I had already received a couple of estimates for my trade-in, but Scott and his dealership offered my slightly more for my trade-in and we were able to come to a very reasonable agreement. I feel like I received a great deal on my "new" used vehicle. It was nice that they had a luxurious waiting area, because the wait was just slightly more that I expected. Scott did check in on me a few times during my wait. Overall it was a great car buying experience. Thanks Scott.

I recently leased the 200CT h from McGrath Lexus of Westmont. It was the best experience I have had in leasing a car -- and I have leased five of them (non-Lexus) in the past 15 years. Alisa Griffen-Dunlap was my salesperson. She responded promptly to my online request for information and provided terrific and fast follow-up to my financing questions. She met me at the dealership later that evening and stayed late to get the deal done. Alisa is friendly and respectful and made every effort to expedite the closing process (at my request) because of a tight time constraint for me. Her professional and friendly manner was on display throughout the dealership, as there was a seamless customer service transition from Alisa in sales to Michael in financing to Ben at delivery to the gentlemen who prepped the car. I have no reservations about recommending McGrath Lexus of Westmont to prospective buyers and Alisa in particular as a salesperson.

I took my car in for service on February 29. I recieved a report that showed what service needed to be done on my suv. In August I had my suv serviced and they gave me a report that showed that I needed $3705.00 worth of work. On the new report all those problems are gone even though I never had the repairs done. They are recommending work that does not need to be done in the hope of increasing service revenue.

I was at another dealership nearby to look at a specific used vehicle purportedly in inventory that had been recently sold, so I dropped in on McGrath Lexus to see what they had. To my pleasant surprise, I found a very nice vehicle on their lot that matched my parameters and was priced fairly. The sales process went smoothly and I found Abe to be friendly, professional and efficient. After three weeks, I remain pleased with my purchase.

I came back later that night and everything was handled for me all to my satisfaction. This was by far my best experience at a auto dealership I have ever experienced. I actually look forward to doing business in the future with McGrath Lexus. Joe Scala was great and I recommend anybody to stop by and see Joe if they looking for their next car. Thanks again Joe.

I cant imagine having a better experience than the one I had with Greg Luzinski at McGrath Lexus of Westmont. I was blown away by Gregs positive attitude, honesty and incredible work ethic. It was obvious to me that his ultimate goal was to attain a happy customer, not just a sale. With a big purchase like a car, I wanted someone I could trust--and Greg is that person. His patience and straightforward manner sets him apart from other sales consultants. He is direct, knowledgeable and went above and beyond to accommodate me! I received unparalleled service, and without a doubt will return to this dealer to buy my next car. I love my RX350 and strongly recommend Greg Luzinski and McGrath Lexus of Westmont!

I purchased my 2nd car from McGrath Lexus of Westmont. On both purchases my salesman was Steve Gibson. For the past 11 years dealing with McGrath Lexus of Westmont, Steve Gibson has been the most knowledgeful and easy to work with salesman. I was always sure he was thorough and gave me his full attention. Steve Gibson knows the entire Lexus portfolio at McGrath Lexus to perfection, and explains everything in such an easy way to understand. If I had any question about any car's functions or capabilities, Steve Gibson was sure to have the answer.Upon purchasing and delivery day, I was introduced to Jimmy Tran in the business office. Jimmy made the purchase process as smooth as can be. Jimmy Tran was also very imformative on my possible warranties to purchase, and we picked the warranty that fitted my needs. Jimmy Tran in the business office of McGrath Lexus of Westmont made my purchase go very smoothly and allowed me to move onto the actual delivery of my new car quickly.Finally, I was introduced to Ben Kruchten in delivery of McGrath Lexus of Westmont. Ben Kruchten did a phenomenal job in explaining every function of our new car to me and my wife before we left. Ben Kruchten set up our blue tooth phones, garage openers, and also helped me open my Lexus Enform account. Ben was awesome.All in all, I would not only recommend McGrath Lexus of Westmont, but bragg about it!I'm glad I returned for my 2nd new car!

Always take care of me - and most times I don't have an appointment and for this reason I won't leave McGrath Lexus.I want to mention also Steve Gibson. When I have been in for service, he either comes to find me or if he is busy calls me later just to say "Hi!" He also greets you with a big smile and is a no pressure salesman, which is my kind of sales person!Thank you McGrath for two such fine men to work with.Barbara Spitkovsky

From the moment my husband and I walked into the dealership, we were treated as if our business really mattered to McGrath Westmont. Joe listened, was time-sensitive, and made us feel as though we were his only clients that day. (Saturday!) There was never any pressure, or confusing car-sales-jargon. He is the utmost professional. In this area, there are lots of choices and Joe goes the distance with his personal attention to detail in every sense. We have purchased from Joe before, and no other salesperson can even come close to his customer service and follow-up. The entire transaction from start to finish was a pleasure, the '09, es350 I purchased is a dream and, without a doubt, we will return, yet again, for our next purchase. MS

We purchased our second Lexus RX from McGrath Lexus in Westmont having we bought our first one from McGrath Lexus in Chicago. We worked with Christi to locate the vehicle my wife wanted(her car)and after a short period Christi was able to find the right car at the right price. My wife and I could not be happier with the car and the process. Christi did a great job taking care of us and she was a pleasure to work with. On another note, the dealership is amazing, not only for its layout and design but for the friendly and professional people who work there. Whoever manages the people and facility truly understands customer service and marketing. Bringing your car to the dealership becomes more of an experience rather than a chore. Remember, almost anyone can sell a car but it's the product and people who take care of you that keeps them coming back. NICE JOB!!Bob & Shari Santelli

This would be my 4th Lexus from 3 different Lexus dealers and I would have to say it was the best. My sales person Steve Gibson was extremely helpful and friendly along with Ben Kruchten in Delivery. He walked me through every aspect of the vehicle features and spent his time explaining everything. In finance, Mike Connery had all the paperwork ready and made it very easy for me to sign and understand. I would definitely purchase my next Lexus from Westmont again.

My husband and I live 3 hours away in Indiana. While looking for a used car we happened upon McGrath's website. I called in and spoke with Greg. He was extrememly helpful answering numerous phone calls and emails inquiring about specifics of the car, prior to us driving to see the car. We are so glad that we made the trip! The car was nothing less than fabulous! Just as Greg had described. All we can say is nothing but positives about our entire experience with Greg and McGrath's as a whole. It was an experience well worth the roundrip drive of 6 hours!

We went to McGrath looking for a preowned Lexus. Sevan Sayadian was very helpful and made our experience easy. Sevan is very polite, patient and professional. We will definitely return to McGrath and refer everyone we know to see Sevan.

My mom has bought her last few Lexuses from McGrath Lexus of Westmont. She said I would not be disappointed and she was right. The showroom is like walking into a luxury hotel. We met with Greg Luzinski and he is the epitome of the salesman you want to help guide you into the right car. I would not call him a salesman but more or less an "informative Lexus friend". He took care of me and my mom. He had updates on what was going on in the loan process. He asked us what our needs were and price limitations etc and there was absolutely no pressure whatsoever. He understood what were were trying to accomplish. I would go back to McGrath Lexus again and again for my future cars and Greg don't you dare leave because you do a wonderful job there. Thank you McGrath Lexus and Greg Luzinski. You are the best indeed!Best wishes,Maida North (Elgin, IL)

I was absolutely bowled over with the professionalism of the sales staff at Mcgrath. I has shopped 2 other Lexus dealers. They were outstanding: courteous, respectful doing most anything to please and strike a mutually agreeable deal. Abe, our sales professional was everything a customer could hope for. Kathy in managment handled the transaction; "just right"-perfect even. The car deal was an excellent value. The point of delivery, the whole facility is: "knock your socks off amazing." Lexus is a luxury car and I have to say since my first purchase in 2003, I would not buy any other car. The quality is built in. The treatment you get is tops. Upon buying the new Lexus RX 350 every employee there at McGrath jumped at the opportunity to please us in every way. I could not be happier. I loved the point of delivery, teacher and service manager taking time to explain all the Lexus bells and whistles. Excellence at every turn.

I have been a customer of Westmont Lexus for 12 years and there is no way I would consider going anywhere else!!! What attention to detail from start to finish at this place! It is very obvious that Tracy oversees and expects perfection from his entire staff! Greg in sales is extremely helpful, Michael in finance, helped save me money and Dino heped me set up blue tooth connection and garage codes all in a flash! I always have such an excellent experience with McGrath and would highly suggest looking no further!Bethany P.S. I love the car

This is the 4th Lexus bought from Rita at McGrath not only do I enjoy the car, but I like the way you are treated from the time you walk through the door, each person you deal with from sales, finance and the personal walk through is very personal and the follow up on my satisfaction is their most important value. I did but my first Lexus from another dealer and there is no comparison to McGrath they truly are the best.

Glen was very helpful and friendly. We worked out a fair price. I did not give great on all as we need a few things done to the car (it was a holiday yesterday so the dealership was short staffed). It needs a more indepth detail, the button for setting seats is depressed, the drivers side seat belt does not spring back.But I would definately recommend the dealership after my experience with Glen and Michael in finance was also efficient and helpful.

Flew in to pick up a car I bought sight unseen. I was told vehicle was in great condition. When I brought vehicle home ( with less than 30,000 miles)the rear tires had steel showing through and I was forced to replace the tires at a cost of $900.00. I asked the dealer to split the cost as this was not an expense I was informed I would have to make to drive the vehicle. I was not informed of the condition of the tires. Bill told me that there was not enough profit to do the right thing. I felt like the bait and switch was played on me. Poor customer service, let the buyer beware! Bill Tacker is a liar, do not buy a vehicle from him! I did not ask for anything special, just for Bill and the dealership to do the right thing after misleading me on the condition of the vehicle.

I have had great experience with both McGrath Lexus locations and highly recommend either store. My recent purchase was from the Westmont store (2007 LS460L) was a pleasure, professionaly handled with Jack Martello (sales), Jimmy Tran for the transactional portion and Kraig Dykman training me on all the features. Overall a 5-star experience!

Repeat buyer of a new lexus. We always call Rita Barkstrom when we are looking, as she makes the experience painless, always has vehicles ready to show, and always calls back immmediately if we have any questions. The dealership is great, goes through the entire vehicle explaining everything, never rushing the customer.

This is the 3rd car we purchased from McGrath - went to another dealership and purchased our last Lexus and was extremely unhappy with their dealership so we decided to come back and happy we did. Just picked up our new car Saturday and everyone was so friendly from the receptionists to the service staff. Our salesperson - Rita Barkstrom was so helpful and answered all questions. I cannot tell you enough how happy we are with McGrath. Their new showroom is totally awesome!!!

We had an excellent experience with salesman Steve Gibson. He was extremely courteous and helpful in taking our needs into consideration. He was very knowledgeable about the car we looked at, the CT200H and took a great deal of time with us to explain how everything worked. Everything was up front and he provided us with information so we could consider car availability with all the different options. He also did as much as he could to expedite the purchase process. We were able to take advantage of special financing and the business office was accommodating of our extended warranty needs. I especially appreciated the time taken at "Lexus College" reviewing the many technical functions of the car. We had a very pleasant and positive experience with everyone involved with the purchase of our new vehicle.

We purchased a 2012 Lexus 450h at McGrath Lexus in Westmont, and traded in our 2008 350h hybrid which we also purchased from this dealer. Sean McLowry has been our salesperson both times. We've been really pleased with the service and the entire dealership from the time we purchased our first Lexus. Our new Lexus is wonderful, and we bought it from McGrath based on several factors. The 2008 was an extremely reliable vehicle. The service was convenient and friendly. Sean has been really helpful and low-key at the same time. We never want to walk into a dealership and feel pressured to buy a car, and have never had that experience at McGrath.

I had a wonderful experience when purchasing my used Lexus ES 330. The dealership itself is nice, sophisticated, and clean. Greg Luzinski and Tracy Isselhardt got me into a car that was perfectly suited to my personal taste and lifestyle. They answered all of my questions, and I never felt once like I was being conned into buying something as I have felt at previous dealerships. When I left the dealership there was no confusion about any technicalities of the vehicle; there was a human manual that explained all the bells and whistles before I left. The dealership was just as esthetically pleasing as the the customer service and sales representatives were helpful. I will never buy another car or go to another dealership besides Lexus MccGrath of Westmont, IL.

I have been a Lexus owner for 12 years. I bought my first Lexus, ES300, for 1996, from McGrath in 1999. The experience I received then was reason for me to visit the web site and find the car of my dreams. Mr. Mel Owens answered my questions on-line and kept in touch with me via emails and sending links to keep me informed. I chose my car from the web site and was advised by Mr. Owens, to come out and test drive. My son, Aaron (he is a Lexus owner, also) accompanied me on the trip and the drive there was made pleasurable by the scenery encountered. The moment we entered the showroom and was greeted and made comfortable by the receptionist, it felt like coming home. Aaron and I were perusing the cars when a salesman asked if we were being helped. We informed him of whom we were waiting for and the salesman was Mr. Mel Owens! After hugging and shaking hands our journey to view the car of my choice was underway. Mr. Owens was a gentleman and the quality of his salesmanship was evident in all that he did for us. He obtained the plate, had the car brought to us, and acquainted me with the driving technology that was present in the 2009 IS250. Driving the car provided me all of the reasons to own it! This is why I came and now the actual purchase process had begun. Mr. Owens exercised great care in obtaining the necessary information needed to make the purchase. Because the process was lengthy, he took us to the cafeteria and advised the waitress to serve us lunch and put it on his tab! How incredible! All during the purchasing process, Mr. Owens made sure we were comfortable and kept us informed of the next steps. In the end, I was able to drive away from McGrath Lexus in the red, 2009, IS250 that I came to test drive! Mr. Owens introduced me to Mr. Kraig Dykman, who fully instructed me in the new driving technology and mechanisms of the car. And Mr. Dykman took pictures of me and the car and emailed them to me for sharing with family and friends!Thank you for allowing me to share my experience with Mr. Mel Owens and the McGrath Lexus personnel!

This was our first visit to McGrath Lexus of Westmont and quite honestly wasn't sure what to expect. We are very happy with our experience and would definately recommend them to our family and friends. We went into the dealership with a certain goal in mind and Mel Owens helped us make it happen. Everyone we met was very professional and easy to talk to. The dealership itself is very clean and friendly, you feel at home the moment you walk into the place. The added perks are quite nice too. I'll be in soon for my first car wash. Although this is our first Lexus experience, we will be back in the future to purchase another.

I just leased my 3rd vehicle from McGrath Lexus. Tom OConnor and Christi Brooker worked out a great deal to terminate my current lease early and get me into a brand new LS460. McGrath is THE best car buying experience on the planet; the Nordstrom of the auto dealership world in terms of customer service. Christi turned the usual dreaded experience of car buying/leasing into a pleasurable one. Things went smoothly and Christi was there for me during the whole process and even after I drove away, making sure everything was perfect. Thanks Christi and McGrath!

I am very pleased with my purchase (CT200H). The dealership really rolls out the red carpet for the customer. I wanted a very specific color and interior, with certain options. Larry Pebelske got me the exact car I wanted. He kept me updated with the progress of my order every step of the way, and devoted plenty of time to my inquiries or questions. McGrath makes the customer feel like they are joining a private club. I love that they offer free car washes and Starbucks coffee. I heard massages are offered also!!! If you are considering a Lexus, forget going to any other dealer. When you do the math, you choose McGrath.

This is our 3rd Lexus that we have purchased from McGrath in Westmont. We drive an extra 30 miles because of the excellent service and treatment that we have always received at McGrath. Our salesperson was Larry Pebelske. Larry took the time to help us identify the exact ES 350 that we wanted including color, interior, and features. Larry even took us to the overflow lot so we could compare the specific cars that we were considering, which allowed us to make the right purchase decision. Larry was very personable and patient and did not pressure us to buy. This was a very enjoyable buying experience!

Mel is a sincere, honest, helpful guy! He really listened to what we were looking for. We were interested in a Lexus we had seen at another dealer even though it didn't have the navigation system. Before making a decision we contacted Ben Mutz asking if McGrath had something comparable. Ben arranged for us to see Mel the next day which was Ben's day off. Mel picked up on our interest in the navigation system and asked us what color we preferred. In a couple of minutes he brought a car out for us to see that was the right color and even had the navigation system. He was not at all pushy and left us alone to discuss what we were thinking. We are so thankful that Mel was the salesperson for us and he is definitely the main reason we bought that day without further research.He also promptly responded to an e-mail a week after we bought the car so he wasn't just interested in making a sale but wanted us to be satisfied. When we brought the car in for an intermittent problem with a headlight, he got it fixed for us without charge even though that was not under warranty. I'm not sure if I should thank Mel, McGrath or both.In addition to Mel Owens, the following employees were also very friendly and helpful: Ben Mutz, our first McGrath contact; Michael Connery, the Business Manager; Ben Kruchten, the Delivery Specialist and Jason in the service department.

The funny thing about it was that I didn't really intend to buy a car that day. I planned to only get a price for a new ES350 just as I had at a nearby Lexus dealer closer to where I live. But when Mike and Alisa started throwing out numbers for a new Lexus to replace my 2007 Acura TL, I knew about where I wanted to end up. Not only did they beat the other price, they beat it by more than $2700. That is the way I like to do business when buying a car---get right down to where you want to end up so it is a fair deal for both sides. I like to take excellent care of my cars, but I want to be rewarded for that extra care when it is time to get a new one. I loved my Acura TL, but my new Lexus ES350 is really a neat automobile, and one that I am sure to be happy with.My hometown is Alexis, Illinois a small town downstate near Galesburg. When people ask me where I'm from, I can say, "Alexis." When they ask what kind of car I drive, I can say, "a Lexus." I have always wanted to be able to say that!!

Greg (as well as McGrath) came highly recommended to me and I am glad I was able to make a great deal on a reliable car for my teen.I LOVED the service, the follow up and the fact that all that was promised to me verbally was actually fulfilled. I do not enjoy the used car buying experience as a rule, but for the first time in my life, I actually feel good about my purchase and the experience.Thank you McGrath and thank you Greg!

We did not expect to make a deal with your agency when we walked in the door. Steve helped us with the process and helped us attain a fair price for our trade in and also helped explain everything we needed to make the sale of our new CT200. We still can not figure out how Steve was able to have the car we purchased come in to the dealership when we were in his office discussing the CT200,some type of magic.I might point out he sold us a RX350 this last October and this we felt was also a very fair deal for all of us. So Steve made it possible to make 2 sales to the same people in less than a year. He must be the best salesman in the industry. Thank you Steve for taking the time to make this deal come together. We also decided to finance this one because Mike Connery is always worth taking the time to talk to. He helped finish the paper work in record time.I wish my personal banker was half as good as he is. Thank you Mike. We also would never have gotten out the door on the right foot without the help of Ben Krutchen. Thank you Ben. I also must say you have the correct people working here, we did have options on where we could purchase a vehicle and frankly we were looking for the professional level of treatment that we always get at McGrath. We will see you again in the future.

What a great car buying experience! I purchased a GX470 yesterday. Mel was the primary reason why! Before visiting McGrath, I went to Lexus of Orland Park IL where no one bothered to acknowledge me or my husband after we walked the lot and went into the showroom (approx 30 minutes without assistance), so we left and went to McGrath Westmont. As soon as we parked, Mel Owens (Sales Consultant)literally met us at the car with a smile asking "how may I help you". We instantly felt valued and the expereicne only got better from there. We shared the make/model we were interested in purchasing--Mel reviewed his inventory sheet--and showed us 4 SUVs that fit our pricepoint/mileage criteria. He then did a terrific job discussing the features/benefits, what we could expect for on-going service/warranty and at no time did we ever feel presured to buy. Mel even came in on his day off to make sure we were properly taken care of which speaks volumes Overall, we experienced outstanding customer service standards and I would definitely recommend McGrath to anyone who values "VIP" service.

I've bought two cars from this dealership and would recommend EVERYONE interested in a new or preowned Lexus to go to Westmont. I was helped by Rita B. and she was one of the best sales associates I've encountered- so ask for her! They were fair and helpful in explaining everything in detail.

The entire buying experience at McGrath Lexus was quite pleasant. The people I interacted with were friendly, professional and knowledgable. The sales consultant, Fred, made sure that I was happy with the car I bought. They took time to explain everything in detail and I never felt any pressure from anyone. I highly recommend this dealership to anyone.

I was looking at an 07 IS 350 and was looking for a buyout on a leased car that I had. I had been at two prior dealerships and both of them agreed that my car was worth what my buyout was and wanted to sell me a car. When I went to Lexus of Westmont they gave me a low ball offer on my car. When the salesman gave me the number I said there was no need to run my credit cause there was no way I would accept the deal. He said oh no we won't we will just do it for financing purposes. Well yea thanks genius I know that but they ran it anyway. After my salesman gave me the whole look of disgust when I asked if they would come down on the price of the car I decided it was time to leave. The dealership itself was insanely nice and luxurious but sadly my salesman and his boss thought they could try and run a game on me. I'm a prior Lexus owner and way to good with number to be taken for a fool.

My wife and I stopped at 5 different Dealerships last Saturday. I want to say that Alisa Griffen by far won "the Salesperson of the day" in terms of manner, information and personality. We didn't think that the car business had such professionalism! There is alot to say about owning and driving a Lexus but to do business with a professional Dealership such as McGrath Lexus in Westmont just makes the car buying experience so pleasurable. We look forward to driving our new Lexus next week! Anyone buying a Lexus must see Alisa Griffen!

I did quite a bit of research before purchasing my car. Joe Scala was attentive with listening to what I was looking for and determined to make it happen. He did this without any pressure. I felt that I received a very good deal.I had a similar experience in financing. Michael was patient in explaining options to me without making it uncomfortable at all.Ben reviewed the auto features with me. He was very detailed and helpful making sure that I understood but let me know that I can call him in the future if I need.All the employees I dealt with were friendly and really knew the auto and the Lexus brand. I will have no problem referring people to this dealership.

I just bought my second car from McGrath Lexus of Westmont and I could not be happier!! My salesman, Greg Luzinski, is professional, friendly, knowledgeable, respectful, and was extremely patient with me as he helped me select the best car to fit my picky taste... and my budget! I dont think its possible for the car-buying process to go any more smoothly. He was there to help me, not pressure me, and I would recommend Greg, Tracy, and the rest of the team to anyone who would like a great experience buying a beautiful, quality car! Tracy Isselhardt does a phenomenal job running this dealership, and I'm looking forward to buying many more cars from them in the future.

This was my first car buying experience. I went down the road to a couple of other dealerships, whom felt were trying to scam me into getting a first car with too many miles, a high price, with a horrible warranty. My boyfriend and I went on eBay and saw a car at McGrath. I thought it would be the same experience as the other Ogden dealerships. Before we walked in, Ben Mutz greeted us outside and it went great from there! I never felt as I'd I was being "scammed" or "tricked" into ANYTHING! He worked with us to get the car in my price range, he and Jimmy helped us get the best financing rate and warranty!!! The dealership was very beautiful and had free Internet and a cafe. While we were waiting for the financing office, everyone that walked by asked us have we been helped. Thank you so much for this experience!!! I will recommend McGrath in Westmont to everyone!! I take pride into telling everyone where I got my car!P.S. Ben even sent me birthday wishes! You can't get an experience like this anywhere!

Buying a car never seems like a fun idea. So when my mom asked me on a rainy Saturday to help her buy one, I was a little apprehensive. At our first stop we were treated with arrogance and attitude. We were so offended we walked out and went down the street. What a difference a dealer makes!! McGrath Lexus of Westmont was a breath of fresh air. From the moment we walked in the door we knew we were in for a good experience. Greg Luzinski met us and showed us the used vehicle of interest. He was very professional, respectful, gracious and knowledgeable. Even when we mentioned a few minor bumps and scratches he was very happy to work with us to repair them. Our negotiations were a breeze. Greg was very honest in what he could offer which put us at ease. We had done significant homework on the vehicle and knew our limits. Greg worked with us and was able to send us home in great car. He even helped us clean out the old one and provided excellent customer service the entire time we were there. I would definitely recommend Greg Luzinski for a new or used vehicle. Our sales representative provided superb customer service and the dealership itself is a treat. They employ honest people which made all the difference in our decision. Thank you McGrath Lexus of Westmont!

If anyone was going to buy a Lexus, Rita Barkstom would be the sales person to contact at this dealership. I have personally purchased three cars from her in the last three years (2 for me and one for my daughter). She could not have done a better job with any of these transactions. Her service was outstanding. I requested to buy a used RX, but wanted limited mileage (under 25K). Rita searched until she found one in New Jersey. It was perfect!!! She made sure that every detail in that vehicle was pristine before handing over the keys. Recently, my daughter's car was totaled and we wanted to place her in a safe vehicle. Rita to the rescue again. She managed to find the perfect used RX at a price point my daughter could afford. Again,the car was in stellar condition when we picked it up. Rita went over very detail down to making sure that the tollway pass was properly applied. Rita is more than an extremely professional car dealer to us. She has become like one of our family. We always stop to visit her when we come for our free washes. If you want a great car and great service too, I highly suggest that you contact Rita. She is simply the best!!!!!

I went in for an oil change and asked Paul Tuffner to check out the car as my daughter was taking it back to school the next day. Paul indicated that he would be happy too with no additional cost. They found the front brakes in need of replacement and the rears would follow shortly. Unfortunately, the rotors were shot. I wanted to know the value of the car which Paul helped with Kelly Blue Book. I had my reservation that my 2001 was not worth the price of repair. My RX300 held value and made it worth my money. But the other constraint was that I needed the car back in 4 hours (service was closing) and needed to be used to "get my daughter back to school." Talk about someone that was not looking to push you into repairs but was honestly trying to help. The effort was appreciated as the brakes on the 2001 were repaired with two mechanics teaming up. I appreciated the attention to customer service which resulted in me bring my RX350 in for a complete service the following day. Did I want to spend the money...no, but I needed to have complete confidence my cars were in good running order. Mr. Tuffner at McGrath was looking after my best interests and exceeded my expectations as a service consultant.

I am a licensed engineer and very analytical by nature. I also own my own project management consulting business, and as such I deal with management personnel with varying degrees of inter-personal skills on a daily basis. Larry Pebelske was my salesman and he did a fantastic job of selling me an RX350.It took about 6 weeks for me to check out the luxury vehicles that I was initially interested in and that list included mercedes, bmw, audi, lexus, infiniti, cadillac, and acura. After several test drives I narrowed the list to the infiniti, lexus, and cadillac crossovers. At this point I had three vehicles that I felt were comparable. After another series of test drives I whittled the list to the lexus and cadillac and took one of each home to compare them side-by-side. Throughout the entire process Larry was always available, informative, and always helpful. He did this without being "pushy", "nosey", or pressing to make the sale - which is a mistake many salespeople make (or they overcompensate the other direction and appear uncaring and too aloof). I would recommend Larry to anyone if they were in the market for a new vehicle. Every experience we have had to-date at McGrath Lexus leads me to believe that the entire operation is run in this professional manner. There are many dealerships closer to our home, but for me it is well worth the extra travel time to deal with such a courteous, competent, and professional staff. My compliments to the executive team - you have accomplished something special that very few operations are able to produce: a truly professional organization that exudes customer service, works well as a team, and generates an atmosphere of trust that feels natural and not forced.

McGrath Lexus has always been spot on when it comes to service. Paul Tuffner is as good as it gets. I appreciate his honesty when they find other things that need fixing, other than what I brought it in for. I bought my car there and only have it serviced there. I recommend McGrath Lexus to people all the time. This is a top notch dealership. Everyone that I've come in contact there are truly professional. Thanks, Scott J Barenbrugge

My wife and I are very humble people and have spent the majority of our lives helping others. When my car was totalled in an auto accident, I asked my wife to drive me to another used car dealearship. Instead, she took me to McGrath Lexus in Westmont and told me to help myself to a new 2011 Lexus. Bill Lawson greated us at the door. We didn't purchase anything the first day and it actually took 4 months before I finally got my Lexus. Bill Lawson stayed in touch and was so patient everytime. He knew that I didn't want to spend an enourmous amount of money but he treated me as if I had a million dollars to spend.My new Lexus is absolutely wonderful and so is the service provided by Bill and his Team at McGrath Lexus of Westmont. My wife and I are Lexus owners for Life.

This is the most horrible car buying experience I have ever had. First, I drove from 4 hours away to trade in my BMW 325XI for a Lexus IS250. I explained to Rita on the phone that I really needed Navigation and Sat. radio in whichever car I purchased. I got there at 8:00pm on Monday night. When I get there I am informed that there is a defect with the wheels and that I should have them replaced within a month under the warranty. OK. Fine. I made the mistake of going in there tired. I get man handled by Rita and the manager Eric on the trade-in value of my BMW. I was assured, after asking many times that I wanted more on the trade-in, that they would just sell it o a wholesaler and they were not going to make any money on it. OK. So I get done with all the paperwork, get escorted to the courtsey gentleman (best person there) that handle teaching you all the features of the car. I just want to know how to program the Sat radio. He presses the Sat button and nothing happens. Come to find out at 10:30p.m. that there isn't satellite radio installed. OK. IM mad. I tell Rita I cannot have this car without it. Eric the sales manager says he will "take care" of me on this. But I will have to call tomorrow to setup and appointment to get it installed. OK. phew. Rita calls me the next day saying that the best they can do is install it for $400.00. WTF!! Now I am really mad, but now they make it seem that I am stuck with the car. So I agree (reluctantly). I come (4 hours of driving each way) for the install and wait 6 hours while they install the radio. I come out to approve the work and come to find they put one of those 1"x1" aftermarket antennas on the trunk instead of installing it in the sharkfin. IM ABOUT READY TO BLOW. The service manager assured me that there was no way to put it in the sharkfin. So after fighting with him. I drive the car home. I call Lexus corprate and they send me a link to the part that allows you to connect it to the sharkfin. Send this info to Rita. They offer to move the antenna to the sharkfin, but I have to drive all the way there AGAIN. 24 hours of driving for a car that I don't even like. It feels cheap compared to the BMW. Futhermore, the dealership charges for everything but water when you are waiting. BMW dealerships have free soda and cofee. McGrath sales people have that slimmy feel to them and come off as very unprofessional. While I was waiting two sales man got into a agrument over who was going to get the "most numbers" that day, then they proceeded to walk outside the door and light up a cigarette. You just feel scammed when you walk out of there. I have purchased many cars and never felt taken advantage of. When I was there on my last visit, I noticed they had my BMW on their lot for 4 grand more than what I got for it (I was assured they could do any better on it, and that it would be sold directly to a wholesaler, becuase nobody would be able to a loan on a car with over 100,000 miles.) I will never buy from them again.

My experience at McGrath Lexus was amazing. Steve and Larry did an extraordinary job showing and explaining all of the intricate details of the respective car I purchased, in addition to all the amenities of the dealership. Additionally, Steve and Larry always made me feel welcome, comfortable, and I did not for one moment feel pressure to purchase a car. I hope to be buying cars from McGrath Lexus in the future.Also, Ben provided me a thorough explanation of the operation of my car, ensuring I knew every mechanism of the car before I drove it off the lot. I can not thank McGrath Lexus enough for the great, first-time, car-buying experience.

It's been a long time since I've been treated so well at an auto dealer. The sales staff was very low pressure and polite, none of this in your face stuff and you must buy today! We did leave with an almost new car but were most statisfied with all of the very informative sales staff. We even had an "In-service" to learn about all the bells and whistles of our new Lexus. I felt much more confident driving the car than just a ten minute overview. I think my sales person is my new best friend!When I returned in a few days to have a broken lens repair, I had another wonderful experience with the service staff. I was met at the door of my car,escorted to the service person's office and then walked to a very posh waiting room, where I not only cheked my email but had lunch in their cafe.Over all, I would rated McGrath Lexus Westmont "excellent" across the board.

I will definitely be recommending Mel and McGrath to others, and am excited to go back to the dealership again.

We are on our 4th car from McGrath Lexus. We've considered many cars over the years, but I think one of the reasons we keep on going back to McGrath is the people. From sales to service, everyone there treats us wonderfully. We've bought all 4 cars from Steve Gibson, and I wouldn't buy from anyone else. He's always looked out for us, and couldn't be nicer. The service department is always quick and efficient, and are ready with a loaner car if we need it. The expanded dealership is wonderful...I actually don't mind waiting for my car as they provide you with many lounge areas, a cafe and computer stations. I highly recommend McGrath Lexus to anyone looking for great vehicle. Be sure to ask for Steve!

I recently visited McGrath Lexus in Westmont and worked with a salesman named Mel Owens. I was looking for a fully loaded RX350 and there were only a few in the Chicago area according to my internet research. Mel Owens said he had one on his lot and offered me $700 off of the MSRP price and gave me a mediocre value on my trade in. We worked out a monthly payment and I was not satisfied that I was getting the best deal. When I asked Mel for more money on the trade in, he said no. When I asked for a better discount, he said the price is the price and said he couldnt go lower. When I asked for a better rate on the loan, he said 2.9% was his best offer. He did say, however, that if it came down to a few hundred bucks difference between him and another dealer, he could probably get it to close the deal. He also warned me that someone else was coming to buy the car tonight if I didnt buy it. (The usual high pressure sales tactics by bad car salesmen). I wanted to buy the car from Mel, but knew the deal wasnt good. I asked him if he would match a competitors offer if I brought one to him and he said NO and that this was his final price, give or take a couple hundred bucks. I knew I could do better so I checked with several other dealers in the area and found the exact same car (different color), and I got more for my trade, a lower price on the car, and a better rate on the loan! This translated to about $30/month difference in price, so we bought the car elsewhere. Mel Owens called me today to ask where I was at on my purchase decision and I informed him that I went in another direction. When he asked the details I told him, and then he very nastily went on a long rant accusing me of using him to get ammunition to leverage a better price with another dealer. He said that I lacked integrity and never had any intention if buying from him. Before I knew it, we were both raising our voices and talking over one another. He said he would have matched the offer, which is the exact opposite of what he told me when he was trying to pressure me into buying the car from him the day before. The truth is that I gave him every opportunity to sell me the car, even though I was shopping around. He was extremely unprofessional and definitely did not give me a good deal on the front end. He thinks he deserved a second look , which demonstrates a total lack of respect for my time. He thinks I didnt have the right to see if a better deal existed out there. The dealership is nice, but their motto When you do the math, you choose McGrath is waaay off. And their hold music states that they treat you like a close friend when youre a guest at their dealership.ummm no way. I would avoid McGrath Lexus in Westmont at all costs, but if you do end up there, watch out for Mel Owens. He didnt give me any kind of deal and then insulted my personal character because I chose to buy from someone who gave me the better deal. How incredibly unprofessional.

Alisa Griffen-Dunlap was, as always, a pleasure to work with on leasing our new Lexus. She went over the new parts (since this was our third one, I knew most of the usual stuff)of the redesigned RX350, and verified that they'd hold the red one for me !Since we were previous customers, it was very easy to complete the paperwork,too. The delivery dept was a little backed up, and it was getting late, so they set up the basics for me, and set an appt for the next day to complete the delivery details. I love my new RX350, and take advantage of the free carwashes as often as possible. I would recommend Alisa & McGrath to anyone who wants both luxury cars & service !

This is our third Lexus from McGrath, and Alisa has kept in touch with us through the years. She knew my lease wasn't up until next February, but also knew we were considering new cars sooner than that. I had looked at other cars/dealers last year with my daughter, but no one else has the service & amenities that McGrath does !Once you are used to the luxury of Lexus, you can't go back !So we leased another RX350, and I'm extremely happy with it, and look forward to many more years of driving pleasure.D Clarke

The experience with Steve from beginning to end was terrific. He was most helpful and informative. We have enjoyed the same great experience at McGrath with our last three Lexus. They are a first rate dealership and we will continue to do business with them. The Plogers

I was having a problem with my rim plating bubbling and pealing. I went to highland park lexus for service. They were giving me a hard time to have all 4 rims replaced, and to top it off, they wanted me to wait 1 hour to get a loaner car so my issue could be fixed. I ended up walking out of the dealership and going back to McGrath lexus.When I called Paul on the Phone he was the best as always! I was able to make an Apt at my convience, when I drove in to the service bay, I was met right away by a porter to take my info. Then Paul met me and completed his paperwork, we looked at the defective rims, and I was in a loaner car. The entire process took less than 10 mins and I was on my way! I highly recomend Paul as a service advisor!!! and Definatly recomend McGrath lexus for your purchase and service needs!!!Great Job Paul!!! Thank you for your help!!!

Purchased a used Lexus ES from Abe Premani. He made it easy and painless. Bob went over how everything worked on the car. Mike in the business department went over the paperwork in less than an hour. Very nice dealership.

Thank you, Bill. My wife and I were really pleased with the purchaseing exprerience with you. We live in Iowa, and it took us three and half hours to got to the dealership. But it is well worth going there. The vehicle is in good condition and well maintained. And the people there are nice and helpful. They consider customers as their friends. Because my wife doesn't have a driver licence, Bill sent a following car with us when we went to return the rental car. And he helped us to communicate with the original owner for the additional keys. We made a done deal in one hour. They earn reasonable money for their hard working. I will recommand Bill and the dealership to my friends.Still I have a regret. I wish I lived near the dealership, so I can enjoy the life long free car wash and hot tea from them.

I recently purchased a 2007 Corvette at the Lexus McGrath dealership. My experience buying the car was great. My salesperson was Geoff Pebelske. Geoff gave me great information about the car. When it came down to negotiating a price, the process was smooth and fast. I didn't have to sit around the dealership for hours having the salesperson go back and forth to his manager's office about the price. Being a busy person, this was very helpful. I'm pleased with the price and service I received.

As a first time buyer of a Luxury car, I didn't know what to expect. This was my second purchase of a vehicle. I was very VERY pleased with the service at this location. Ben Mutz was EXTREMELY helpful and beyond freindly. He made me feel very at ease. I found my car online, below the price that what was listed when I arrived at the dealership, and they honored that amount with no hesitation. I will be purchasing my next upgrade there for sure. Great Job McGrath Lexus of Westmont!!!

I am very impressed with the professionalism and customer service that McGrath Lexus provides, and the cars are great. The dealership is the most inviting and friendliest that I have worked with. I really liked the fact that all of the features in my new RX350 were explained and illustrated to me personally.

I purchased a 2004 Lexus ES330 from McGrath Lexus and am very happy with the experience. My salesman was Abe Premani. He dealt with me in a very honest and straight forward manner. I would recommend him to others. I do not live in the Chicago area but if the situation presented itself, I would buy from McGrath Lexus again.

Larry Pebelske and his manager were extremely professional and enjoyable to work with. I received the very best service. They were extremely service-oriented, courteous and respectful. Larry took me for a test ride and provided me with important information about the Lexus IS 350 and the service department. After I purchased my car, they explained all the features on my new car and assisted in setting up bluetooth, radio stations, etc. I would definitely purchase my next car from the McGrath Lexus of Westmont dealership.

Great experience Low pressure. Wanted special color and equipment Steve Gibson took the time to find EXACTLY what I wanted. Price was by far best in area. Every time I go in for car wash, Steve takes the time to speak with me and make sure everything is going well. I have recommended Steve to other friends in the market for a Lexus

I cannot express how helpful Rita has been in the process to purchase my new CT200h. I don't live in the Chicago area, making the transaction even more complex. Rita found the car for me, she found an incredibly reasonable rate to transport the car for me, and she arranged for a seamless closing by mail. In fact, I received an even lower interest rate that from Lexus than I had arranged through the local credit union. The car was perfect on delivery. Everything was just as Rita explained it would be.

Bought an SUV recently, Waited for 4+ hours to have the sales process done as the sales person was busy serving 2 customers at the same time. I had to follow up with them to arrange for the services promised. At the time of purchase they gave me only 1 key, promised to get back me on 2nd key for the car, but no response. They have a 3rd party vendor to process the title & registration for out of state sales. They issued temporary registartion that was valid for 30 days, Now my temporary registration was expired as its been more than 30 days, but not received the license plates yet. Their response is that they can not speed up the process, I will have to wait until I receive it and not sure when will I be receiving it. This dealership has a very big facility, nice apearance, speaks about outstanding customer service but definetly not upto the mark.

I just purchsed a 2008 Dodge Charger from McGrath. I had planned on going to several dealers before making my decision, but the car at McGrath was beautiful and at a great price. The salesmen i worked with, Abe, was very nice and helpful. He stayed several hours after his shift was over so I could come back with my dad. I would definitely go back to McGrath for a new or used car. I did have two complaints, which is why there are 4 stars instead of 5. There was a turnsignal bulb that was out. I told them, and they said they would take care of it. Once they dropped the price a bit for me, they said I could use that money to fix the turn signal. I thought it was a joke, but apparently not. I still have to fix the turn signal. My only other complaint was as i pulled out of the lot, the low fuel light came on. They couldn't bother to give me any gas. I know people who work at other dealerships and ever car that gets sold gets a full tank of gas. Other than these two minor complaints, my experience at McGrath was phenomenal and I would definitely go back.

I recently purchased a RX350 from McGrath Lexus in Westmont. I had a wonderful experience from start-to-finish. My sales rep was Sean McClowry. Sean couldn't have been more professional and capable throughout the whole process. He explained everything clearly. This is the 4th car that I have purchased from McGrath and I would highly recommend them to prospective car buyers.

Alisa was gracious and very patient. I had intended to purchase one model and, for various reasons, eventually purchased another. It took several visits and many test drives before I decided on my vehicle. Alisa listened patiently and never once lost her patience. She even came in on a day off! The service and attention was exceptional!

I was never treated so well by any car dealer / salesperson - and I have purchased many cars in my lifetime. They treated me as if I were buying the most expensive vehicle on the lot when in fact, I was buying a pre-owned vehicle under $20k. Mel was not only friendly, he was open, honest, and genuine - refreshing! I was allowed to drive the vehicle by myself which is a rarity these days. They found a better interest rate than I received prior to going into the dealership - lowered by 2 percent! There was no back-and-forth negotiating nor any phantom finance guy dictating the deal. By the time I got to the financing part everything was ready. They gave me top dollar for my trade - I did the homework before going to the dealership so I knew what the vehicle was worth. I met several other people while there including the general manager who found the time to say hello. I will be back!

Overall I had very good experience with Mcgrath Lexus of Westmont. Bill Tacker was our contact person. Looks like Bill does not have word 'no' in his dictionary. If you have any question/issue or help needed he is there to help or answer you. His relentless efforts to make customers happy is really appreciative. Also we dealt with other folks and they were helpful too including delivery specialist. Showroom is nice with great decor and amenities.

From the second I pull up in the service area, I am promptly greeted by Jason Ellison and Ruben. They are always there to help me out with my service needs no matter which vehicle I am servicing. They are always prompt and informative when it comes to the status of my service. Even when it comes to the individuals like Brittnee Litwin, Joree Janko, Agi and all other greeters at the dealer, they always say hello and ask how I am doing. We have grown a working relationship and always make me feel comfortable when coming to the dealer for any of my service or purchasing needs. When it comes to Rita Barkstrom, she pretty much always knows when I am coming in and will always find me to say hello and catch up. She is a great individual to work with any will always go to her for my future purchases and will refer anyone to her who is looking to purchase a Lexus. I have to say, all are very professional individuals and are great to work with. I have nothing but good comments to say about the whole staff at McGrath Lexus of Westmont. I would recommend anyone to visit their location. Just like their saying, "when you do the math, you choose McGrath." There is 100% truth to that.

McGrath Lexus has set the standard for superior customer service. We leased our second vehicle from McGrath and our experience met and exceeded all our expectations. Rita Barkstrom and Bob Cowden were professional, friendly, prompt in meeting committments for follow up and clearly demonstrated expertise in knowing every facet of the product. We have been spoiled by the "experience" of purchasing and servicing our car from McGrath and feel a strong sense of customer loyalty to this dealership.

I needed a vehicle fast due to mine being totaled unexpectedly. I was really short on time and the vehicle was out of state. I found the vehicle on their website and was given the highest level of customer service from Alisa Griffen-Dunlap. I was immediately met with all the help I needed to make my decision. Alisa was able to provide me with details, photos, and video of the vehicle I was interested in. When I made the decision to go ahead with the purchase everything was done to perfection prepping the vehicle for my arrival. When I arrived my vehicle was ready to go fully detailed with new tires and brakes. The only thing I had to do was sign some paperwork and I was on my way. I was very short on time between school and an upcoming vacation not to mention stressed over a friend totaling my Infiniti G35 Coupe which was a special car to me. I purchased from Alisa a Lexus IS350 and I could not be more satisfied. The customer service was great and the vehicle is amazing. I will purchase my next vehicle from this dealership because I know that Alisa will go above and beyond with stellar customer service.

They work together like a fine tune clock. I can't say enough about my experience and I know I won't buy from any other dealership. Lexus of Westmont is the best!Tracey, who oversees everyone there, is respected by all. With his leadership, everyone works to make your experience therea pleasant one.

My husband and I flew from Ohio to purchase a GX470. I dealt with Sevan online and the SUV that I orginally contacted him on did not work out. But thankfully he found another one which we really like. It is not easy to purchase a vehicle online and on faith, but Sevan was so accomodating and did whatever he could to make it a pleasant experience. I will look here first before buying any other vehicle.

Rita has sold me three cars beginning in 2003. She has been very helpful along the way and if I am fortunate enough to buy another Lexus she will be the one to make it happen. If I need anything "Lexus" she knows who and where and I am delighted and impressed with her effort and effectiveness.The endless number of forms to fillout and sign was professionally handled for me by Mike Connery. Although I have not worked with Mike before it was a nice experience. He had the forms prepared, anticipated my questions and prompted me to consider addedcoverage and Roadblock protection both of which I am glad to have.My new ES 350 has so many great features that create the need for special tutelage.No one needs more help than I do. Another new assist for me was Ben Kruchten. He wasvery thorough and patient as he demonstrated the numerous techical items included onme new car. Upon completion he made it very clear that I should contact him at any time if I had a question.It would be my pleasure to work with Rita, Mike and Ben in the future. This most recent experience was pleasurable for me and I look forward to the enjoyment of my new ES 350.

Rita and the staff at Lexus are wonderful people to work with.I have bought 2 cars from Rita and she is always available to answer my questions with a warm and friendly smile. Rita always responds to my e-mails that same day. She thoroughly explained everything to me when I was considering leasing instead of buying without the feeling I was taking too much of her time. Most importantly, she does not pressure you to do something you may not be comfortable with. I feel Rita is a person I can trust and regard her very knowledgeable with the products. Being a single woman, I am very fortunate to have been able to work with her for this transaction to occur so smoothly. Rita sincerely removes all your fearful, scary, hesitant feelings when buying a car.Please go see her and see for yourself.

She gave me a great deal and was incredibly informative about the inventory on the lot, as well as being very honest with prices. I cant say enough about my experience and look forward to working with Rita as well as McGrath Lexus in the future. Look no further for any and all car buying needs

The customer service at McGrath Lexus in Westmont is impecable. The majority of our time was spent with Bill Lawson prior to actually purchasing our new Lexus in April 2011. We started the process in Oct. 2010 (thinking about buying a Lexus RX 350). Bill hung in there with us (he is truly patient) and provided us with monthly updates on specials and just to say "Hi" in general. Robert Cowden has an outstanding sense of humor and made our time spent with him reviewing the vehicle quite pleasurable. Mike, the finance manager (sorry, lost his card in the excitement), was extremely helpful informing us of all the packages and finance options. Thanks to Maria for the gift and overall kindness. Great Team!!

We ended up settling on a very fair price as far as the market was concerned and I was very happy with my service with Alisa. The salewoman understood what we were looking for and found a great car that matched our criteria to a "T". I would recommend this dealership to anyone interested in a new or used lexus.

I had a wonderful experience at McGrath Lexus, everyone there was more than happy to accommodate my needs. I worked with Christi Brooker, it was a very pleaseant wonderful experience she made sure that I was happy. I went in to purchase IS and they had all the options that I was looking for and the color every one was so wonderful, I have never had a car buying expeince so stress free. I would highly reccomend buying your next car at McGrath Lexus of westment from Christi Brooker. They had plenty of things to keep my kinds entertained, play room and cafe, I went on a Monday when they were giving neck massages so while I was waiting to finalize the paper work I had a massage. All in all it was an amazing experience and I look forward to going back. I couldn't of had a better sales person, everyone get in there and buy a car from Christi she is so kind and great to be around you could tell she really cared about my needs.

My experience at this dealership not only changed me to a life-long Lexus customer, but transformed how I will forever feel about buying a car and customer service. This dealership and it's salespeople (especially Christi) really know what it takes to make and maintain a base of customers in this difficult economy, when luxury vehicles are just that; a luxury. I am always warmly greeted walking into the dealership and offered delicious refreshments. The services offered are amazing, ranging from shoe shines to massages. But I digress. The reason for this review is to say what an absolute pleasure it was to work with Christi. She was upfront and never made me feel like I was being "taken for a ride" - haha. She remembered my name and even deals about a vacation which she inquired about. It was so refreshing to be considered a real person with a life as opposed to a number in a dealer logbook.

Alisa Dunlap from McGrath Lexus of Westmont was the consummate professional in every facet of the buying process. She was able to get us the best deal, as well as after-market wheels and delivered the car to us on her day off, because it was more convenient for us. I would HIGHLY recommend this dealership, but more importantly Alisa. She is highly sought after and very busy, but she continually checked-in with us to let us know how long she would be before being able to assist us. It is no wonder she is in high demand; she has been a Sales Consultant with McGrath Lexus for quite some time and she knows her product and is passionate about the brand she represents. In this age of information overload with autotrader.com, cars.com, etc. she personalized our experience such that we wouldn't consider using any of these other means by which to buy a car. We have owned several Lexus models and will continue to do business with McGrath Lexus of Westmont and Alisa Griffen-Dunlap.Vicki and Joe Benjamin

This is my 5th vehicle leased through this dealership. Being a single woman, it is great to know that I will be treated like any other customer when I visit the dealership. Rita is always available to answer any questions I have; and, goes the "extra mile" to assist me. Tom O'Connor was my very first contact and continues to be a part of the process. Kraig Dykman made sure I knew everything about my vehicle, even though this is my fifth Lexus. I will continue to recommend the dealership to by friends and neighbors.

I have already recommended this dealership and I will continue to do so. McGrath of Westmont is so great that they are "off the charts" in every aspect. They are absolutely incredible, not only for your every need and desire but also sensitive to your privacy and personal time. They always make you feel that they are there for you completely, and yet there is no pressure for decisions or even indications regarding your situation. Rita Barkstrom graciously kept up with me for quite a long period of time. I always consider larger decisions well in advance and continue to observe the situation for some time. Rita was "perfect" in handling everything. She let me know that she was there and obviously waited patiently. Tom O'Connor was completely professional; it was obvious he did everything possible and more, regarding the financial matters. And I'm still calling Ben Kruchten, the Delivery Specialist, with questions about some of the many wonderful features of the Lexus. I look forward to having my new Lexus serviced there. I have only praise for McGrath Lexus of Westmont! Margaret Schaaf Purchased 24 March 2011

I buy a lot of cars for a large extended family and I can honestly say that my experience with McGrath Lexus has been consistently outstanding.Steve Gibson has been my sales guy for over twelve years and seven new cars and I can honestly say that the customer service and the prices he's provided have matched or surpassed what I've found on the web.At the same time, the dealership is so large, friendly, bright and comfortable that I'll occasionally stop by for a free car wash, coffee, and snack just because I'm in the area.And whether I'm actively looking for a new car or just for a car wash, I'm treated as a valued guest, not just as a potential sale.After the experience over the past twelve years I'm sure that if Steve told me he was selling lawn mowers, I'd probably buy one from him.

Our experience with this dealership has always been very positive. We worked with Alisa Griffin on a recent purchase. We purchased a GX460 and we anticipate that we will have the same quality service and customer experience that we have had with our ES350. Thus far our experience has been very positive.

My wife and I are repeat customers Lexus of Westmont and Joe Scala. Last month, Joe Scala helped us pick out a pre-owned Lexusand sold us our third car. That, in itself, should say a lot. Joe Scala has a great personality, is polite and respectful, knowledgeable and professional. After deciding on the car and reviewing its service history, it took us less than 10 minutes to agree on a price. The whole procedure was stress-free and relaxed. We made arrangements to pick the car up the following day. The car was readyand detailed; signing the paperwork took less than 5 minutes and than Joe set us up with a technician who explained all of the vehicle features and answered all of our questions. We were in and out so smoothly, thanks to Joe Scala.Our experience with Joe Scala has been outstanding and unique and he has followed up with personal phone calls and e-mails concerning our satisfaction with our purchase.During the last 20 years, we have always received warm, friendly and professional service at Lexus of Westmont.

Going to McGrath Lexus in Westmount has been an experince starting with metting Rita Barkstrom. I received an experince beyound my wildest dreams. From the moment she flashed her friendly smile and seeing my husband relax I knew I was going to go home with a new car. we have purchased three Cadillac and a Jaguar it took us all day and remember THE dealership closing before we were finish. Rita was knowledgable about everything, we did not need a manager to come and fast talk us to close the deal. we told her what we wanted. I would gladly recommend any of my friends to Rita. She is everything that Mcgrath says they offer, she provided us with a worl-class ownership experince made us feel like Royalty. She could say "no" when she had to with out using the word no.I was completely Satisfied with her she was referred to me by an ex-manager of Lexus, Bob and she was everything he told me she was. I'ii be back and I will only deal with Rita. She spoke very proudly of her co-workers and introduced everyone we would be working with when we csame in for services. I could go on and on about Rita and how luckey you have some one like her on you team as family.

From the moment I walked into Lexus of Westmont, the experience was wonderful. I dealt with Bill Lawson when purchasing my car and he was more than helpful with anything I needed. He gave me an extremely fair price for my car and was patient and kind throughout the whole process. I went there the first time to get a price and when I went back about a week later to purchase my car, he had one cleaned up for me in the back before I came in. When purchasing the car, I worked with Mike Agnello who showed me ALL of my options with warranty's, months of payments, APR %, etc. He was very understanding and helpful with all of my questions and concerns. Overall, I had a wonderful experience at Lexus of Westmont and I absolutely love my new car!

Loved my experience! This is my 4th Lexus and my best experience yet. Have dealt only with Orland Lexus in the past. Selected the Westmont location as an option strictly for proximity to employment and will stay here because of excellent customer service.Went to both Orland Lexus as well as Cadillac on this same day after looking for months on line. Neither of the other locations seemed interested in selling me a vehicle or couldn't be bothered. Sounds strange these days, but I find that many places still view a woman shopping alone still needs the approval of her husband so nothing is going to happen that day. They would both be diasspointed to know that I didn't.It is too bad because I was a serious consumer with every intention of purchasing immediately. I had cold-called Lexus in Westmont and was fortunate to be connected with Rita Barkstrom. Rita listened on the phone and when I arrived on that Saturday (without any appt), she was with another client. What I liked most was that another sales associate was willing to step in and assist until Rita was free. That shows true professionalism in sales and a confidence in staffing. The teamwork is what I find impressive because at the end of the day, even though the sales person is receiving the commission, it is for the betterment of the dealership as a whole. That says alot about their leadership.Once Rita was free she spent a great deal of time with me and when I left I felt very confident that we would close the deal on a new car once we both obtained the information we needed.Delivery was seamless and every aspect of the facility was impressive. Yesterday received a follow up call from Rita and it was pleasant to know it was just a courtesy call.Again, I am a loyal Lexus driver and commend the staff at the Westmont location for their consistent professionalism throughout.Krista Bulow

I shopped all the Western suburbs for Lexus dealers before purchasing, and I chose McGrath of Westmont because of their professionalism, attention to detail, and a good deal didn't hurt things either. Customer service is very important to me (which is why i'm an Ex-BMW owner), and one of the other dealerships I visited made me feel like I was doing them a favor or in their way. Subsequently I now own a Lexus from McGrath. I recommend them highly!

Rita is the absolute best. Met her the first time we bought a car at McGrath. Couple years later purchased another and would only deal with Rita. She's patient, answers questions. Not pushy. You can tell that its important to her that you have a positive experience. Even after purchasing the cars she's still there answering questions and helping. My advice... If you go to McGrath ask for Rita. You won't regret it.

The initial experience has been very pleasant, and I am looking forward to availing myself of the McGrath Lexus personal perks as well as their car expertise. I did not feel pressured during the purchase process and had a myriad of questions thoughtfully answered. McGrath Lexus employees actually listen to and care about their customers.

This my 5th car I have bought from this dealer and I have been pleased with every one of them. But most of all I have been very pleased with the exceptional courtesy that they extend to their customers. I really don't see any reason to go to another dealer to look for quality or service, McGrath gives both. If you decide to venture to McGrath ask for Steve Gibson, I am sure you wont be disappointed.

Christi Brooker is one of the most professional and knowledgable sales persons I have ever dealt with. She immediately put us at ease and shared what was in our best interest with the purchase. There was never any pressure to buy, but rather, time well spent in helping us make the right decision. We were impressed too with the overall welcome feeling we received at McGrath from the time we entered the building. It was a pleasure doing business with McGrath and having Christi Brooker as our sales representative. I will highly recommend both to my friends.

I met with Mr. Muntz a while back and was very impressed by his knowledge and professionalism. We are holding off on buying a car for financial reasons. However, Mr. Muntz was very informative and helpful. I would use McGrath and Mr. Muntz when the time is right for us to buy.

We picked this dealer because they had the lexus that we wanted and they also had 2 of them to choose from, and they were also about $2000 dollars cheaper than here in des moines. Ralph was the most polite salesman we have ever delt with. Everyone at the dealership was very polite and helpful. When ever we decide to trade for another lexus we will be making that 5 hour drive back to McGrath. We will not even look anywhere else. We have never been to a better dealership.

I traveled from Peoria to McGrath's due to the large selection of RX 350's I found and reviewed on your website. I scheduled an appointment at McGrath's and was prepared to buy / trade that day. Abe Premani was my salesman and one of the best (if not the best) I have ever dealt with. He was patient yet eager to help me find the right vehicle, negociated with respect, and was thorough in closing the deal and preparing my new car to drive home. Other McGrath employees I met were also polite and helpful, and I found McGrath's facility to be nicely designed, clean and very customer friendly. I will return to McGrath's for my next Lexus and will certainly recommend McGrath's (and Abe) to my friends. Gold Star for McGrath's!

From the initial greeting at the door to driving out with the Lexus, Mel Owens provided superior service in my purchasing experience. I have never had "stressless" experience buying a car in the past. This purchase was a pleasant surprise. Every individual who had a role in the purchase was friendly, professional, respectful, and courteous. It was like being welcomed into a family. I like the McGrath Lexus culture. Kudos to the genius who created it and the team who permeate it!

I dread buying a vehicle. To me, it is a big hassle and it is not very pleasant. With that said, I very much enjoyed the entire process at McGrath in Westmont. Great selection, great financing and they made me feel like my buisness was apprecated. Everyone was hospitable and professional. When I need to buy another vehicle, you can be certain I'll buy from them again!

My experience with purchasing a car at McGrath Lexus was phenomenal. Rita Barkstrom, our sales person, was so knowledgeable and professional to deal with. She followed up when she said she would and answered all of our questions. She really went out of her way to make our experience seamless. She really cares about her clients and their car buying experience. I would recommend McGrath Lexus and particularly Rita Barkstrom, to anyone.

Ive purchased two Lexus vehicles over the years from Lexus of Westmont and have been extremely impressed with the level of service every time. The dealership has a way of making every customer feel like a VIP. However, what really impressed me the most and has made me a loyal McGrath customer, was working with Rita Barkstrom. She goes above and beyond in delivering Best in Class service. Rita has earned my trust, and will be the only salesperson I will go to for my next Lexus purchase.

I recently bought a car from McGrath Lexus in Westmont. It was one of the best experiences I ever had buying a car. I was really impressed by the beauty of the showroom and even the complementary beverage I was offered. I was greeted with a friendly smile by the salesman, Larry Pebelske,who patiently listened to me describe what I was looking for and how much I could afford to pay. His knowledge of the vehicles and financing led me to getting a car that I am extremely happy with and fits my budget. Larry was very personable, professional, and made me feel very comfortable the whole time I was there. I would and will highly recommend to my relatives, neighbors, and co-workers to go to McGrath in Westmont and ask for Larry Pebelske to help them buy their next car.

My experience with McGrath Lexus was the most enjoyable that I have ever had in 30 years of buying cars. Mr. Hara was responsible for this. He made buying my car a pleasure from the moment I walked into the dealership to my driving off the lot, including my first service appointment for my car. I have told all of my friends and family that Mr. Hara and McGrath Lexus of Westmont is the ONLY place to purchase a car from. Thank you Mr. Hara, you and McGrath are the best!! I will see you again soon to purchase a car for my daughter.

Rita displays what a car sales person should be! Knowledgable, professional, and does what she says she is going to do. Makes the car buying experience all worth it! I don't believe there is a button on any of the cars she sells that she doesn't know. I have bought many cars from her, and will keep coming back to mcgrath because of her.

My main point for writing is to compliment not only the dealership but in particular Rita Barkstrom. She helped me find the Lexus of my dreams and made this car buying process everything great. She answered all my questions and then some, she followed up on any issues of concern to me and truly made me feel like she cared about me in this process, gave the "personal touch" if you will. I am a person who places value on people I trust. Rita is the only person I wish to handle any future purchases, hands down! She is the best.Sue M. Bauer

That too was exceptional. I was briefed on every aspect of the car's capabilities including how to program the radio, and the ushered to the financial deapartment where I felt completely at ease and in a trusted environment. The service and turnover folks at McGrath were just great.

It has been a pleasure working with my Service Advisor, Jason Ellison. I have an RX 300 with almost 140,000 miles, and it rides as well now as it did 10 years ago. Jason is very patient in explaining what service should be performed and why. He also informs me about service that may be deferred to a later time. He follows up with phone calls a day or so afterward to make sure I'm satisfied. Any concerns I have--no matter how small--are always satisfactorily addressed. It's a pleasure to have someone such as Jason to whom I can go with questions, etc. and know full well that I will get an honest answer.I would not hesitate to recommend this dealership to any friend or relative for Lexus sales or service.

McGrath Lexus has a state of the art dealership and service area. The staff is very professional and courteous. The best part of our experience was our salesman, Fred Cramer. He was incredibly knowledgeable about all the Lexus vehicles and he helped us to select the vehicle that was best for us. My husband and I both felt that we selected a high quality vehicle from a dealership that would be there for us for years to come. Since the service department is open on Saturdays, it makes it easier for working families to have their cars serviced on weekends. The free car washes are also a nice touch!!

I have purchased four Lexus vehicles from McGrath Lexus in Westmont. I have to say, I have NEVER worked with a salesperson more personable, more supportive, more sympathetic or more empathetic, etc. than Larry Pebelske. He listened to my situation. He listened to my interests in a vehicle. He listened to my financial ablities, too. Larry was patient and perservered so, in the end, my beautiful 12 year old daughter and I could be the proud owners of a red matador colored, RX450h with tan interior!! We love our vehicle!! I would highly recommend Larry to anyone who is looking to purchase a Lexus. Best wishes, Larry and thanks again for helping to make 2011 a great year for us!!

Hello My name is Kim PienkowskiI have purchased two used cars from McGrath Lexus of Westmont since 1998. I could not be happier with the dealership or with Steve Gibson, my salesperson. It is always a pleasure to come to the dealership. The dealership amenities are impressive and the customer service is consistently excellent. Both cars I have purchased from Steve have been reliable, comfortable, and a great value. I have referred friends and family members to the dealership and to Steve. Each person who has come to McGrath has been very pleased with the cars purchased and with the dealership experience. Steve has a genuine interest in making sure his customers get the very best car they can for a fair and competitive price. His regard for customer satisfaction is evident and appreciated.

Phil & I experienced the best Service & Reponse from the very start from Rita Barkstrom at McGrath Lexus in Westmont! In addition, the 'negotiations' involved in buying our new car was unprecedented! Both Rita & her boss, Kathy went out of their way to assure that we were satisfied!! We've purchased cars in the past, but the the competancy & friendly attitude at McGrath Lexus in Westmont was far & above the best we've ever experienced! We were with 'Mike' for 2 1/2 hours the night we purchased our new Lexus & he was very helpful & informative as he patiently showed us how to use our new car! :-) We shopped extensively for this, our first 'luxury' vehicle, & we're certain we chose the right one! It's 'Dreamy'!! And, I'm planning to show up as much as possible on Monday for my 'courtesy car wash & 15" chair massage'!! :-) Sincerely, Linda Bottger(I'm very grateful to have McGrath Lexus in my 'backyard'!! :-))

My wife and I very much appreciate a friendly but professional approach from a salesman (Mr Fred Cramer). He certainly has exceptional knowledge of the product and conveys that knowledge so the customer understands. In particular, I like the genuine/honest approach so I don't end up feeling manipulated and this dealer, represented by Mr Cramer, will leave "the shopper" with very positive feelings about the customer being valued. My expectation, as a result, is that a high quality vehicle and service is the "normal standard" at McGrath Lexus Westmont.

I live in the south suburbs of chicago which is about 25 to 30 miles away from this dealer. I make it a point to ONLY deal with McGrath Lexus of Westmont. I'm always treated like a VIP whenI enter and leave the dealer. Either for service, parts, or sales they are always #1 in quality and service. Bill Tacker is my perferred sales person, he helped me and a few of my friends purchase cars. He is spectactular when when comes to finding the right car and getting the right price. He exceeds expectation each time as a sales person.

Rita Barkstrom was awesome! Recommended by the service dept, she took total care of us. Tom O'Connor was as professional as always, another pleasure to deal with. This is our third Lexus, would not even consider going to another dealership. Loyalty worked both ways with price breaks, etc. Final thanks to Chris Schwingle in service for 'steering' us in the right direction. We have already recommended McGrath Westmont to clients, and will continue to do so.

I will start off by saying McGrath Lexus and my sales person Mel Owens are top notch. Being a woman shopping for a vehicle I have encountered every possible attitude imagineable. Attitudes ranging from not wanting to assist me because my husband wasn't with me to down right rudeness. However, none of this was the case while at Mcgrath lexus and with my sales person Mel Owens. From the moment I was greeted by Mel he made me feel welcomed and seemed genuinely happy I was there at the dealership. He was courteous, extremely knowledgeable(this man knows his stuff), patient and most accomodating in addressing my needs. Throughout the negotiating process he made it easy, painless and was very respectful of my time. Although I truly came just to shop for a vehicle, I ended up purchasing a RX400h which is my dream vehicle, and I am extremely happy now! The staff was friendly and most accomodating and the perks i.e. free car washes for life, free starbucks coffee and tea, free pick up and delivery for service, shoe shines, and the clincher for me free massages on mondays helped me understand the value I was getting in purchasing from McGrath Lexus. I will recommend Mel Owens and McGrath lexus to everyone I know! Best car experience ever! I am a customer for life! Way to go Mel, mission accomplished!!!

I had the greatest experience in visiting the Lexus of Westmont store this weekend. I spoke with Mel Owens and found him to be courteous, knowlegable, and extremely professional. He toured me the dealership and its service area. He has already contacted me today and thanked me for my visit. I went to two other dealerships last week and haven't heared from anyone. This will be the store and the salesperson I will utilize in my next car purchase.

Tracy and Joe took the time to find the exact vehicle I wanted down to the features, color, miles, etc. Once located, I was in and out quickly...as they were all set with the necessary paperwork. To celebrate my purchase, they treated my family to a wonderful meal at a local Italian restaurant that evening. I enjoy coming in periodically and using the free car wash. Each time I am at the dealership, I am impressed with the level of professionalism of all that work there as well as the beautiful surroundings. I would recommend these gentlemen to anyone in the market to buy a vehicle.

I was purchasing a very inexpensive ($10,500) car and Mel treated me as if I was purchasing a $100,000 vehicle. His attention to what I needed in terms of vehicle and price was outstanding and extremely considerate. In fact he sold me a car under what I allocated myself to spend. Buying a car is can be stressful and he made this experience enjoyable, relaxing and pleasurable, almost as if we had been friends for years. If and when I need another vehicle I hope he is still at this facility because he will be the first phone call I make. I will refer friends of mine to my new friend Mel anyday of the week!! Thank you Mel!!!

This is the 5th Lexus I have leased from McGrath Lexus and have always dealt with sales associate, Glenn Keeler. I remain impressed with the integrity and assistance extended to customers and that is why I continue to return for each new lease. Glenn and other members of the McGrath staff are extremely courteous and prepared to answer any questions a customer may have. Regardless of one's interest in a purchase or lease, the McGrath terms are the most competitive of an Lexus dealer in the area. I am pleased for the opportunity to recommend McGrath Lexus of Westmont.

Buying a car has never been a good experience for Meri especially. I myself do not mind the challenge. I went over to Mcgrath Lexus Westmont this time. When I got there to look for a new car for Meri I ran into Rita. Rita showed me the car I was interested in and explained what I was getting for my dollars. I could not believe all the Customer Service perks that this Dealership offered. Free car washes, a massage on Mondays, shoe shines on Fridays and a great little cafe with loaners when necessary. This is a beautiful Dealership w/ great Service perks and the people were so kind and respectful to me throughout the whole process. I recommend anyone who wants their car buying experience to be a good one, to go see Rita Barkstrom at McGrath.Thanks Bob and Meri Bulla

Rita Barkstrom was outstanding not only as a sales associate, but as someone who was aware of all aspects of the product she was selling. Over the years, I've found that many sales associates don't know all the facts there are about the product they're selling, and this was definitely not the case here. Rita was also friendly, courteous, and professional at all times during our purchase and negotiation process.We highly recommend this dealership and Rita Barkstrom.

I know I have been a "Tough Customer" to deal with. I shopped around quite a bit and pushed pretty hard to get the best deal.If I was Rita I would have been very frustrated.Rita unwavering and steady kept an air of professionalism throughout the entire process. She is a joy to work with.As I said, I shopped around a lot. I even found better deals. The one factor I couldn't calculate in numbers was the service.The way I am treated when I'm at McGrath Lexus is such a positive experience that it supplants the "good deal" as my #1criteria for a car purchase.I tried to imagine what it would be like at other dealerships when I needed to bring the car in for service. I visited all thewaiting rooms, talked with service people, etc.McGrath is in a class by itself. Rita Barkstrom is in a class by herself as well. She was a huge factor in my decision. I needed to save a little money and I had a bottom line price. Rita worked so hard and finally found a way to meetthe bottom line.Thanks Rita.

Rita Barkstrom was an absolute pleasure to work with! She made the experience fun and exciting while trying to be as informative as she could. Going to a car dealership can be exhausting, but Rita was right to the point and knew what we were looking for. I look forward to working with her in the future.

I'm driving my third RX....all from McGrath Lexus of Westmont, and all from Rita Barkstrom. I would not have returned the second time had my experience not be a good one. Since, I returned for the third time, I believe my actions speak for themselves.

My wife and I were looking to update our 04 rx330 to a newer model rx. Rita was exceptional in finding a 08 model RX350 with low miles and a great price. We are very happy with McGrath Lexus and especially Rita. I would definitely recommend this dealership and Rita to anyone looking for a used or new car.

Buying a car has never been a good experience for me. I wanted a Lexus this time. I was referred to go see Alisa at Mcgrath Lexus Westmont. Alisa showed me the car I wanted, she walked me around the Dealership and explained what I get after I purchase my car from them. I could not believe all the Customer Service perks that this Dealership offered. Free car washes, a massage girl on Mondays, shoe shines on fridays, the greatest little cafe with awsome food...but not only is it a beautiful Dealership w/ great Service perks but the people were so kind and respectful to me throughout the whole process. I recommend anyone who wants their car buying experience to be a good one, to go see Alisa at McGrath.

Over the years my wife and I have dealt with more than a few car dealerships. Most were a disappointing experience. When my wife's car broke down on the Eisenhower at Damon Ave, I knew it was time to move up to a Lexus. I had read about their quality and strong performance record. We found Kathy Mallet in Westmont on the internet, who sold us our first Lexus, a new 2002 ES300. She made car buying such a pleasant, effortless, and satisfying experience. We have bought three more new cars and our daughter has bought two pre-owned certified cars. Two of our best friends have also bought new Lexus cars.The service has also been excellent. We would like to thank Paul and Dean for that. Thanks to everyone at McGrath Lexus in Westmont. Bob, Darlene and Megan

I went to Mcgrath Lexus this week to purchase a used Lexus GS300. The salesperson and all of the staff at McGrath treated me fairly and with respect. I was on a very strict budget and they were very understanding of this. They all worked really hard to keep me within my budget and we were able to make a deal. It was a great experience and I will defintely be back.

I just purchased my 2011 ES350 from Christi on 11/27/2010. My experience was nothing short of amazing. I have purchased several cars over the last 30 years and this was by far the best time I have ever had. Usually you have to play all the car dealer back and forth games, but not this time. If you want the best service you have ever received from a car dealer, you owe it to yourself to shop at Lexus in Westmont. I can't say enough. Give them a try and I know you will agree.

On Saturday October 30th we purchased our first Lexus RX350. We had the priviledge of having Mel Owens as our Lexus sales associate. He was the best car sales person we have ever dealt with when purchasing a new vehicle; this is the first time I didn't feel like I was being challenged by the sales person. He was not only commited to making sure we were 100% satisfied with our Lexus, but he also made sure that the whole process went smoothly. Michael Connery in Financing and Robert Cowden, New Car Delivery were also very helpful and got us through the paperwork without delay. Lexus of Westmont provided us with great customer service and made sure we were taken care of.

Saturday October 30th, 2010 we purchased a certified, pre-owned 450h Lexus from McGrath of Westmont. This deal would not have been possible without the help, patience and expertise of our sales agent, Mr. Mel Owens. We had previously purchased a 1997 ES 300 from this dealership in 2000. That car remains in excellent shape and my wife was reluctant to take on a new car note. But, we had been searching on the internet for well over a year for an SUV that would be heartier for these Chicago winters. Mr. Mel Owens was first class. He wasn't solely interested in consummating this deal, but desired to make us "customers for life". He was not pushy or aggressive. He answered questions honestly and returned our "panicky" voice mails promptly. Though he was obviously busy, he made us feel as if we were the only deal that mattered. My wife is frugal and a "tough sell"; I am convinced we would still be car shopping if destiny had not guided us to Mr. Owens. His demeanor and ethical conduct is a reflection of the McGrath dealership and Lexus "family". Though our Lexus was 14 years old, we were still able to take advantage of every amenity the McGrath dealerships had to offer (i.e., free loaners, car washes, massages, shoe shines, plasma tv's, conference rooms, Wi Fi, Starbucks coffee, etc.) For now, my wife has forbidden me from driving her "new" car. She's like a time traveler who is thoroughly enjoying 14 years of innovative, automobile technology. I'm pleased that we got a stylish hybrid that sips gas, has some "giddyup" when accelerating and looks great!

We have purchased various Lexus models from Westmont Location since 1995. We have referred others to you because of the quality of the cars and your level of customer service. We will continue to purchase exclusively from McGrath primarily due to your service.

Since 1993, your service has always been superb. Reuben, Dean. and Paul are the reason I have purchased six cars from McGrath.They know their customers, have high standards of customer relations and above all customer satisfaction, and the technicians get it right the first time, always.

People at McGrath are always patient and attentive when we visit for service or just a wash. Tracy, Steve, Chris and Paul are truly some of your best employees. You make ownership of a luxury car special.? Great from driving in to driving out!!?!!!!

I had my Lexus RX in for Service with Paul Tuffner. Paul was very helpful. He explained in detail what maintenance my vehicle needed and how much it would cost. I waited for my vehicle while it was being serviced. Paul told me it would take about an hour. While I waited I enjoyed a nice neck and shoulder massage. To my surprise my vehicle was done in 40 minutes and it had been vacuumed and washed. The dealership is beautiful. I felt like I was at the Four Seasons.

Horrible experience. We bought a used Lexus that they offered as Certified Pre-Owned but it was not really qualified - big paint stain on the passenger seat. They stated the wrong odometer reading to the Secretary of State, they stole parts out of the car once we bought it, issued us a credit card without our consent, and lied to us about the extended warranty. McGrath dealerships should be avoided. I even had to file a complaint with the Attorney General's office agains them.

recently took a test drive with the internet salesperson. Although friendly. did the typical five minute, right turn, right tun, return to dealer road trip. How and why they would expect anyone to buy a car without spending more time is beyond me. I looked at the new 250 hybrid and wanted premium but they provided a base for the trip, although the service loaners were premium model, which they let me sit in, but not drive.... go figure. Price... I was told sticker even though you can purchase for much less on the web.
