I got my car last week and I can say I was not disappointed! This was my second time returning to Ray Catena and I wouldn’t go anywhere else. Tom Cola always goes above and beyond for me when I there. He is professional, kind and truly always looking out for my best interest. He is honest and I know he is genuinely trying to get me into the perfect car for me. Tom made the process so smooth and quick. I would recommend him to anyone!

John Kelly is the best car salesperson I have encountered. His customer service is exceptional. During the purchase of our Mercedes, he kept us up- to-date throughout the entire process - communication is key! Due to my work commitment, I was unable to drop off my car at the dealership and John came to our home (about a 45 minute drive) to drop off a loaner and pick up my car. He went above and beyond in so many ways. I was impressed with his customer service and the Ray Catena Dealership. He made us feel special which is how you should feel when purchasing a Mercedes! I highly recommend making an appointment with John if you are interested in leasing or purchasing a Mercedes. He is the best! Thank you John for all your help. Sincerely, Margie and Bob.

As always, Ray Catena in Edison never fails to impress. After my car was totaled in the flood, I walked into the dealership nearly defeated. Paula was so kind while helping me look for a replacement. She was never pushy and completely understood just how sad I was that day. Even though I showed up 30 minutes before close she was able to show me a bunch of different vehicles and I walked out that night having made a deposit on a vehicle.. all within less than half an hour! I love my new car and would never go anywhere else!!

Buying a Mercedes-Benz can be overwhelming especially if you are a first-time Mercedes-Benz buyer. I brought my daughter to this dealership (as she always wanted to get a Mercedes) and the agent given to us Tom Cola was just so warm and welcoming that the apprehension of going in the dealership went away. Tom made the process so easy and the wait was not bad at all, the best part was he got my daughter approved on her own....wow... he did not only explain the whole process so simply but got my daughter's wish to have the Mercedes she wanted. This dealership just have a very friendly atmosphere....Thanks again Tom....you never know I might just as well get my next SUV with Mercedes-Benz. I won't be surprised if all Sales Representatives is like Tom...who would not want a Mercedes-Benz.

Paula is absolutely wonderful! She is personable, knowledgeable, patient and professional. All questions were answered, she made the entire purchase seamless and easy. I highly recommend her services and would give more stars if able. Furthermore, the entire Ray Catena staff were very customer focused. I was greeted immediately upon entering and everyone spoke as they passed by. Great experience, I am very happy.

I am extremely impressed by the Finesse and the professional approach in which both the Vincent's dealt with my case.This is my first vehicle in the country (USA), and I did not expect such a courteous and professional , and personal, frank and practical advise and they did everything possibe to ensure that I get a vehicle.I interacted with Vincent Jr. largely and he was AWESOME. and a throrough Professional.

I car shopped all last week, trying to secure and purchase a small car to commute to work, and also to drive around town. I went to many different car dealerships, trying all kinds of small cars. One of the first places I went to was Ray Catenas of Edison, and I was greeted so professionally by the people at the front door, and even more so by Christina Colucci. Christina showed my the smart car, answered all of my questions, and took me on test drive.She was so friendly and very knowledgeable, knew answer to all my inquires. I came back a couple of times more, ech and everytime it was the same wonderful experience. I came back Friday with my wife to make the purchase of the smart car, and it was a great time, I didn't even mind the paperwork and waiting around. I left youre dealership after a coupla of hours, very happy and fulfilled, cruising in my new car!!! I will close by saying you cannot have a better, or more friendly salesperson. WELL DONE!!!!

This dealership was an enjoyable exerience for our new car purchase - a beautiful, well managed facility, with friendly welcoming staff.But it was Tom Cola who made our experience outstanding. He patiently listened to our needs, and guided us to our final decision, He was extremely accommodating in responding to our questions, and provided knowledgeable and honest answers that helped us to make our buying decision. We highly recommend this dealership and Tom Cole, and we plan on returning for our next Mercedes purchase.Bob and Mary Beth Slivka

Tom Cola made leasing a car a very pleasant experience. First and foremost he listened to us and what our families needs were and helped us make the right choice for our family. He was not pushy, provided us with useful information only and did a nice job working with us on price and making it work for us. So thank you Tom, again, for being so professional and making our choice an easy one!

This dealership was top notch! Tom Cola went above and beyond to make sure I purchased the C300 - 2016 I was most comfortable with. He gave me suggestions and his advice, but was in no way pushy what-so-ever. After I decided on a C-300 the process was absolutely painless. So quick and professional. I felt like family by the end of the whole process! I would recommend Tom Cola to anyone who is looking for a new MB car

Christina Colucci made buying my car an easy and enjoyable experience that I had not ever experienced before. She has been extremely responsive and accessible throughout the process. She responded to my email inquiries very quickly and answered all my questions. Derrick the sales manager was also a lot of help to me, I would definitely recommend you to contact Christina for a truly satisfying experience in buying a car.

Tom Cola is a top notch salesman who listens and guides you through the process, verses attempting to club and beat you into submission like other sales professional. Tom wasn't to pushy but he provided me with all of the key fact and then provided me with time to think to come up with the right decision. I would definitely recommend Tom to anyone that interested in purchasing a new/used vehicle. You will leave the dealership satisfied, and not regretful.

Tom Cola is by far the best salesman I have ever encountered at a car dealership. My experience with Tom was a positive one. He was knowledgeable, sincere and made me feel comfortable regarding my purchase. The patience Tom Cola exudes is amazing. I was having trouble deciding between two different sized SUV's and kept going back and forth. Tom was patient and told me to take my time so I would make the right choice. By the time I purchased my GL 350 I felt like he was family! He is such a great guy and I highly recommend him!!! Many thanks Tom!

Just received my 2017 C300 4matic sedan. Tom Cola was my salesman, and simply said, he was great throughout the whole process. He is extremely knowledgeable and personable, and made me feel at home from the moment I met him. He helped me with my option choices, and made the experience of purchasing a new car, enjoyable, like it should be. He answered all my questions (which there were a lot of), and made it a very positive experience. I have purchased many cars over the years, and I can honestly say that Tom Cola is the best salesman I have ever had. I would highly recommend Tom Cola as you salesman at Ray Catena Mercedes Edison.

Every aspect of dealing with Tom Cola was a pleasure. From the moment we walked into the Mercedes Benz dealership we were welcomed right away and able to walk around until a sales representative was available. We were greeted by Tom Cola who helped us narrow down my options. He was nothing but a pleasure to work with. Considering this was my first Mercedes, he was able to answer any questions I had for him. Tom was able to work with me and get me into a 2016 CLA 250 with a price range that was comfortable for my budget. We couldnt be happier with the vehicle and the service Tom provided us. THANK YOU TOM COLA!

We have been leasing Mercedes-Benz for many years and have never had a more enjoyable experience working with Tom Cola as our salesman. He is well spoken and makes you feel like he knows exactly what you need in a car. We couldn't have had an easier time leasing our car. Thank you Tom for gettng it right the very first time!

Tom Cola approached us as we were looking at vehicles. Since this was our first Benz we had many questions including which one was right for us. He cleared that up within the first five minutes. After that, it was just a question of options and colors. Even the "bargaining" process was done with the idea of making us the best possible deal. There was some back and forth (mostly because of me!) but we fairly quickly came to an agreement. We drove off the same day. They even paid for the last payment on our Lexus. Catena and Cola. I would heartily recommend that pair to anyone that asks. Hey, even if they don't ask!!

Tom Cola is a warm and caring sales person. He made it easy to purchase a vehicle. He knew exactly what my needs were and fulfilled them. He wasn't pushy but took the time and effort to get the sale right. I felt like I new him all my life! Mercedes Benz speaks for itself ( excellence in performance and service) but being in a customer relationship business myself I felt Tom hit a homerun in my experience!Melody

My daughter and I had just gone into Ray Catena to check out the GL 450. Tom Cola met us at the lot and he was "the bomb". He was very knowledgeable and placed me in exactly the car that I wanted, without being pushy or putting pressure on me to get a vehicle. At that time, I was very busy with work and he assisted me so I could maintain my schedule and he ensured that the paperwork was completed prior to my leaving town. Tom is definitely an asset to Ray Catena and I'm glad that I was fortunate to have met him at a most needed time. Tom keep up the good work. We need more sales people like you,Thanks again for all. It was a very smooth ride to OHIO!From Una & Family

We had the pleasure of working with Vince Peluso Jr. and Sales Manager Derrick Fox for the 2016 GLE350 4MATIC we wanted to lease. Vince Peluso Jr. was attentive and professional from start to finish. He was straightforward in what could and could not be done and there was no surprises. If you're looking for transparency and a friendly staff, Ray Catena of Edison is the place to be. Both Vince Peluso Jr. and Derrick helped make this deal happen and we're happy to have leased our first Mercedes at this location.

Bought my 2017 E300 4Matic from Ray Catena Edison. Tom Cola is not your typical sales rep I must say. He was not pushing me into buying a particular vehicle. He asked us what is it that we are looking in a car and found us the closest possible match from the MB inventory. Some cool features were not even expected in what we got. Initially, we went in to buy a 2016 E350 but ended up buying the cool and newly designed 2017 E300. Hey Tom, I am still waiting for those signature pens... did you mail that out already? ;-)

My experience at Ray Catena of Edison was truly remarkable especially because I was able to purchase my car through Tom Cola. The minute I walked through the door Tom provided me with his total undivided attention. Being a very not easy customer , Tom was truly patient and thoroughly went over the entire deal. I would only wish everyone in this world could have Tom as a salesman because he TRULY does not fit that stereotypical label of a cars salesman he genuinely cares about you being satisfied with your purchase and doesn't care for your money. He is phenomenal at what he does and exemplified his credentials from Merecedes. Thank you , Lana S

I've worked with Vincent Peluso Jr. to get the GLC300 we needed. He was very attentive, informative and friendly like Vince Sr.. The car delivery was on time as promised at the price we agreed upon. Vince has a lot of patience in explaining every feature of my car in the best interest of customer. Thanks to the manager for promoting a customer-friendly culture at Ray Catena. I would highly recommend Vince Jr. to my friends who wish to buy at Ray Catena (Edison, NJ). Excellent service!

After starting our new car buying experience with looking at the C450 then to the C300 Cabriloet we finally decided on the C450. Through this whole process which started in May of 2016 Christina was patient and informative with every single question and inquiry that we both made. We have 3 other MB dealers that are closer to our home but decided to go with Ray Catina because of Christina. Her passion for what she does is very evident from the moment you first meet her and has continued through the first few days of having the car.We highly recommed if you are going to look for a new vehicle you start and end you search with Christina because you will not find any one better at there job.

After going to 4 dealerships (Princeton, Paramus, Cherry Hill & Manhattan) trying to find my perfect GLE350, over a weeks period meeting Christina was like a breathe of fresh air. No Gimmicks, no fighting back and fourth on price, she was extremely professional. I told her my price and she made it happen! THATS THE WAY CAR BUYING SHOULD BE! Christina was by far the best sales rep I've ever had. She was super sweet and no BS and was very honest. This is my 4th Mercedes Benz and I truly won't ever go anywhere else besides Ray Catena of Edison, from the staff to my sales rep I truly couldn't have been more happy and felt more comfortable with the end result especially after getting the run around from 4 other Mercedes Benz dealerships. I will follow this girl wherever she goes she was that amazing!

Vince was extremely knowledgeable and helpful. I had gone to another Mercedes dealership before visiting Ray Catena and the salesperson there had very little knowledge of the cars and preferred to spend his time texting on his phone. I would return to Ray Catena Mercedes simply because of Vince.

We have dealt with many dealerships and my husband does his research and usually knows more than the salesperson about the car. Not this time. We dealt with Mattnew Kratzer and he was a wealth of knowledge about the 2017 E300. He found the car WE wanted not the car the dealership wanted us to purchase. Here we are a few days later driving it. His manager Dan Cottrell was also a pleasure to deal with. They were both quite honest.

I am probably the last person to ever write a review, but I had to spread the word about the great experience I had over the weekend. I was fortunate enough to purchase a new MB on Saturday from Ray Catena MB of Edison, NJ. I've owned several Mercedes in the past purchased from other dealers, and I have to say, this was by far the best experience I've ever had. Upon arrival, I was greeted by a gentleman by the name of Tom Cola, who was nothing but professional, courteous and understanding of my time and budget. I call Tom a gentleman because that's exactly what he was. Tom was not your typical salesman (he didn't follow my every move..lol ) he made my wife and I very comfortable with his honesty about vehicles and pricing. I just wanted to write this because I did not purchase my vehicle because Ray Catena is one of the largest groups in NJ, I bought it because Tom was a truly genuine man who truly cared about his customers. Ray Catena Auto Group should be lucky to have Tom Cola working for them. Thanks for everything! Anthony

He was very helpful and understanding with what fit me best as far as what I had in mind and we were quickly able to find the perfect Mercedes Benz for me personally. I'm extremely happy and excited of my new beautiful ride.. Thank you so much Tom for everything was a pleasure!.

We have never met a more professional and all around nice guy as we did when we visited this dealership. We are in the process of gathering information on buying a Mercedes Benz. Mr. Goldberg knows the business and the product. He could not have been more helpful and his personality is what sold us to come back to this dealership. It's rare that you find a salesperson that goes above and beyond to help educate you on what is going to be an expensive purchase. Ray Catena is very lucky to have Mr. Goldberg represent this location.

I can probably count on one hand the number of times I've written reviews. I rarely do it. I only do it when a product or a person truly deserves a review and this is one of those times. Matt Kratzer is a great asset to the Ray Catena Dealership and I'm sure they realize that! He is a polite young man that is honest and professional. I happened to have my 80 year old father with me at the dealership.and after we completed the deal and left he said ; "I hope that dealership realizes what a gem of a guy they have.,that young man is a gentleman".... I said, I'm sure they do Pop and his manager Dennis is gentleman as well. Great experience! I would recommend this dealership to anyone!

Mr. Rozenfeld was an exceptional salesperson. He provided the ultimate service. He realized that we were limited in the amount we wanted to spend and therefore, worked with us to achieve the right price. The paperwork was effortless, all of that was done for us (very stress-free). Would I purchase from you again? Absolutely!!! Would I recommend Ray Catena? Absolutely!!!Thank you Grigory Rozenfeld for such a wonderful experience!!!

I personally look forward to my time with getting my new car, and using you service. Thank you Tom.

This is my second experience leasing a Mercedes with Vince Peluso Jr. Although I live on Staten Island and it would be far more convenient for me to go across the bridge to Brooklyn,I chose to return again to Vince without even attempting to get another quote. Vince is extremely knowledgeable and professional.He is very polite and attentive to one's needs.I very much appreciate his honesty and integrity.He never goes back on his word.When he gives you a quote, he stands by it. Once again, it was my pleasure to work with him.I highly recommend Vince to anyone interested in leasing or buying a Mercedes.

This isn't my First Experience with Purchasing a Mercedes Benz. I always went to Brooklyn NY because it was easy and I live there. However when I found out that Mr. Cola wasn't there any longer I started to ask if anyone knew where he was or still in the Business. Mr Cola was my first GREAT Experience with Mercedes Benz after 4 tries!! I found out That he was working for Ray Catena and I called him ASAPI am in Real Estate sales so I can appreciate Honesty, Integrity and a TRUE Gentleman. Everything he said was right on the money from Availabilty to Pricing and so detailed as to when the car would be ready for pick up!Tom I know Mr. Catena is very happy to have you representing his company !!Look for many referrals from my Brooklyn People because it's worth the TripAll The BestAnthony A.

We have purchased from the Ray Catena family of dealerships before and were always happy with the quality of service and support we received. This time was no exception. We received the highest quality of customer support we could hope for throughout the entire buying experience. Our sales person (Tom Coke) was professional and a pleasure to work. The delivery person (Chris) was knowledgeable and complete in explaining all of the functions and features of our vehicle. We would recommend this sales team and dealership to anyone looking for a great place to purchase a new car.John Z

In coming into your Edison dealership we were a little apprehensive because we were not sure what to expect, as we already had been to a few dealerships and we were not pleased. But from the minute we walked in, it was the most professional and welcoming staff and made the first part of experience a very pleasant one. Then Leon helped us in every way he could, and made everything go just the way it should and was just a real pleasure to work with. He is an asset in every way and by far the best sales person we have worked with since our last purchase at the Ray Catena in Oakhurst,N.J.

Our experience with Ray Catena/Edison was just the type of experience you wish for, Tom provided a personable, knowlegable & relaxed experience for us. We just went to the dealership to look at cars with the intention to buy a new car in the near future and left the dealership with a new car.We were very happy with the complete experience including the tutorial on the features of the car by the service area. We will definitely recommend Tom Cola and Ray Catena/Edison, to our friends.I & P

One of the best experiences I have ever had at a dealership. My first time at a Benz dealership and the people and atmosphere were far better then my expectations. The process of finding the right car with the most hassle-free wouldn't be possible without Tom Cola. Tom thank you very much for everything and being 100% real and straight to the point. I'll def be seeing you for my future purchases.

It was great to do business with Ray Catena at Edison and with Vince Jr. It was hassle free, no strings attached, no hidden charges, thoroughly professional interaction. Vince was always reachable, returned calls and replied to texts and emails promptly. Overall it was the smoothest experience I've had at any car dealership. Don't believe the Internet when you read car buying is stressful. It is not.

I explained what I was looking for and he delivered. No hassle, no haggle, very responsive, just super easy. We worked out the deal over e-mail and when I went to pick up the car all I had to do was sign and drive. In and out in less than 45 minutes. Other salespersons should follow his lead.Rich Z

I did get my deposit back after some delay, and have nothing bad to say about Allyson and the dealership. It is just the deposit agreement everywhere not structured to be mutually binding, so why risk your money for nothing!

Vince did a great job for the overall car buying experience. I have now bought 2 cars from Ray Catena Edison and have to say each time has been a true pleasure. I now a salesman that is on top of his game. (Not that the other wasn't). I felt very comfortable with is calm ways. We will be back to buy another car from him in 3 years when my daughter turns 17. Thanks again.

Our first experience as new car buyers was so positive with vince, that we went back again. And he ddnt disappoint! With vince you know he is selling the best car for you. There is no push or fancy sales pitch, just a good person helping people get the best car for them. Without a doubt, no matter where we move to int this country, he is the only person we would ever buy a car from

Tom recently sold us a ML 350. He was very helpful servicing our car needs. He even delivered the car to us and gave us his phone number in case we ever had any questions. He always answered his phone and was helpful answering all questions. He's a great salesman and we highly recommend him!!!

I have been driving Mercedes for the past 25 years and have dealt with several saleman, Tom Cola made this last transaction effortless for me. I would highly recommend Tom to anyone looking for an honest and sincere person to buy your next Mercedes from. His knowledge and expertise surpassed my expectations, it was a smooth transaction, I could not ask for more. Tom has gained my respect and I would refer him to my family, friends and co-workers.

When we went to Ray Catena at Edison we weren't ready to buy ,but with Tom's patience we decided that if we were ever going to buy it will be with Tom. Tom is very passionate with his job that he made sure that our satisfaction was more important that when my wife finally decided against buying the color we have already settled on the day of pick up he didn't think about the sale but made sure that we were completely satisfied. Tom said " My goal is that six month from today l don't want you to wake up and feel bad about the decision you are making today, therefore l will do whatever l can to make your experience here a memorable one". He made us feel special and answered all our questions. I was a great experience and we hope all sales persons could treat their customers the was Tom treated us.

We had a wonderful experience at ray catena. Our sales person Tom Cola was patient with our indecisiveness. Finally by our Third return we decided on the E400 coupe, white with black and red interior. The car is awesome and we are very happy with our decision. He made us feel at home and comfortable to keep coming back. We will definitely be back again.

In 2013 I walked in to look at some vehicles not really interested in buying but one of the sales person, I think his name was Robert gave me a set of keys to test drive one of the vehicles and I was sold. He broke down the details and I was covinced of what true customer was. I returned to the dealer but Robert was assisting another customer but a young lady by the Name of Mellisa helped and accommodated me with the vehicle I was looking for. She was great and this is why I have purchased multiple vehicle from Ray Catena. There Mini dealership has an excellent staff just like the MB dealer in Edison.

Purchased an MB SL63 over the internet when my local dealers could not meet my specific requirements. Within 1 hour of submitting my internet request, Matt Kratzner called me to inquire as to my needs, and a short time later we had agreed on very fair price. From that point forward, Matt handled all the paperwork and logistics associated with getting the car delivered out of state with the Ray Catena custom flatbed truck. I have purchased many MBs over the years, and I can candidly say this was one of the best sales associates and dealerships I have dealt with. I highly recommend both Matt and RCMB.

We were lucky to have had a chance to work with the two most professional guys from Ray Catena. The overall experience of working with Vince and Matt was exceptional. Vince is a charm with exceptional knowledge. He was accommodating, Professional and provided the best possible options in the price range that we specified. We ended up booking C300.We connected with Matt while taking the delivery and i must say that this was the most hassle free delivery i have ever had. We got what was promised at the time of booking and Matt made sure that no additional charges, services etc were entrusted on top of buying the car.The features and options of the car were explained well in details so much so that we never had to open the booklet to checkout on any features.Overall, the best possible experience you can ever get. The experience was equivalent to the brand that they sell. Just AWESOME.

This being my first Mercedes Benz I have to say the Ray Cantena dealership is flawless. They treated me very well as if they knew me for years. Mr Tom Cola made me feel like I was family, he helped me choose the right vehicle for my price range. When it comes to Mercedes, the man knows his stuff, down to earth and stright foward. I can not wait until my lease is up to work with him again.

My experience with Tom Cola was nothing short of amazing. This was my second purchase with him and he treats you like you're his family. It's a nice feeling going to a dealership and working with someone you can trust and has your best interest at heart. I'd highly recommend Tom to anyone looking to get into a new car painlessly.

I was new car shopping for the longest time. I've been to other high end dealerships and spoke with salespeople about how there dealership differs from the rest. The answers I received never stood out to me like the one I got from Ray Catena MB. Simply put, from the moment I walked in the front door, it was apparent to me the difference was right in my face. My sales man Grigory Rozenfeld approached me wearing a suit and tie. He was professional, well spoken, and educated about what the Ray Catena name was all about. ME ! The real person who has been stressed by other dealerships time and time again. Grigory was always by my side, explained to me how it was all about what I wanted not what he wanted. My needs were first and foremost. Needless to say I didn't have any issues from beginning to end. I got my car quickly and exactly what I wanted for what I wanted it for. No headaches or bait and switches. No waiting around alone and helpless. Just personal attention. I even met Dan Cottrell to congratulate me on the purchase.Ray Catena Mercedes Benz was all that I had read about and heard from my friends and family. When I went back to visit with my wife, Grigory was there to give us a tour of the service center and explain to my wife all of the features of our new 2016 E350. I was in shock he took the time to do that. I will recommend him and Ray Catena Mb of Edison to everyone I meet looking for the car buying difference.

I recently moved to the US from India last year. Been in the market for a car for about 4 months and am the kind of buyer that likes to be very well researched and do a comparative survey of all options before I seal the deal.I knew I wanted something in the luxury crossover space and had narrowed it down to Mercedes GLC, Lexus Rx, BMW x3, Audi Q5. I had virtually compared all features online and my plan was to sequentially test all of them and then decide.Well, this is a review of how I entered the Mercedes showroom and never had to go to any other after that. In a week I had zeroed on my car and a week after that I drove out in it :)Tom Cola is the man behind this. He never once made it about the sale or the car....it was always about me. I did not feel like I am dealing with a salesman, rather an experienced personal consultant. He offered me practical perspectives and points of view, shared key information that helped me make the decions best suited for me. I visited the showroom several times during those 2 weeks and he was always helpful, informative, patient and consultative in all of them. He also did a lot of crisp quick follow ups on the phone where needed.I was blown by the AMG styled GLC awd with its plush luxurious interior, sporty powerful handling, classic minimalistic elegance in black and white, cutting edge technology born in 2016 and a burmestor surround sound that was truly superior.Tom not only helped make my decision making process quick and bang on with my personal style, prefernces and situation....he guided me most helpfully through the paperwork, insurance etc. A lot of it was done over the phone and mail where possible for my convenience.Special mention of the manager Derrick Fox who also helped my case for the lease go through after a lot of support and representation on my behalf.Proud to be a new member of the Mercedes Benz club....my first mercedes and my first car in the USA...and I will always be grateful to the 2 gentleman that assisted me...Tom all the way, with key inputs from Derrick.

I have to say that I was so impressed with the Sales Person I dealt with. I was shopping around for about 2 weeks until I found the right sales person. He was very personable and profesional who listened to what I wanted and took care of it immediately. He made the process smooth and painless. He changed my whole perspective of a car dealer. He has a customer for life and will definitely send him all my friends and family that are looking for a car. I felt like I was dealing with a person and not a sales person. He has outstanding customer service skills.

Must say that if it was allowed , our experience leasing our car last Saturday would have to be rate10 Stars ????????????????????We were lucky to have been assigned Allyson Gutman to help us with our new lease, she was very professional , attentive and caring , made the whole experience so simple, fair and enjoyable to the point that we had a good time with her , it felt like we new each other for years.We found an ANGEL, Allyson not only went out of her way to make sure we were comfortable with our lease decision, when I called her a week later to let her know that I had a flat tire and was very upset because I was not aware of all the type of tires that are in this cars, it took her 15 minutes to call me back and solve the issue to make make sure that we were happy with our lease.Will always come back to Allyson and will recommend her services to everyone.

This is my second purchase. This dealership is outstanding and give 110% to make sure you are happy and that all your needs are met. From Sales Floor to Service Department Absolutely Outstanding!!My Sales Rep Paula Gaillard was very informative, and outstanding as well. She made me feel like I was part of the Ray Catena Family. I have recommended this Dealership to all my friends that are looking for a new car. And note - Ray Catena is not close to my home. There are several closer Mercedes Dealerships but not to Ray Catena's Outstanding Service. It's worth the trip for me. I can't thank them enough.Bravo Ray Catena - You have an Outstanding Staff and Dealership!Mike Haslett - Oakland NJ

Ray Catena is a top notch, top shelf dealership, with top shelf staff all around and Paula G is no exception! We probably drove her crazy on the inside with questions and delays, but she kept her cool, gave us her undivided, unrushed attention for hours on end while she could have tended to other customers. This is our 3rd vehicle from Ray Catena (2nd with Paula) and we wouldn't want to deal with anyone else. If you want to be treated with the respect you deserve, visit Ray Catena and ask for Paula G.

This is the seventh Mercedes Benz that I have purchased. Throughout the years, I have purchased from various dealers in New Jersey but this is my first experience with Ray Catena. Having left a competitive dealership earlier that day unable to make a deal, I stopped at Ray Catena and was enthusiastically greeted by David Wong. I explained to him my less than pleasant experience earlier that day and David responded by saying their loss in my gain. David quickly understood my needs and proposed a beautiful 2016 SL400. Thanks to Davids dedication to excellent customer service and total professionalism, we were able to agree on what I considered a fantastic deal! I will certainly return to Ray Catena and more importantly, David Wong when I am ready for my next Mercedes.

It is actually my first time writing a review ever, and for the sole reason; because I was very happy with the service I got, and was why I chose Ray Catena to be my dealership. Christina did great, she responded to any email/ phone call in no time. That made my transaction a breeze. We got all done in just a few hours. So here is what I would say. Ray Catena, helpful staff and always the customer in mind.Aron

Tom Cola was hands down the best salesman I have ever encountered. From start to finish my experiance was excellent. Before even speaking about purchasing a vehicle he took the time to get to know me which I thought was great. Additionally Tom was super attentive to my needs and made sure that I had everything I wanted. As a young woman I was apprehensive about going to buy a car alone but Tom made me feel comfortable and confident in the fact that he had my best interest in mind. Definitely a Ray Catena customer for life.

We purchased my 2016 GLA250 From Ray Catena Motor Company in Dec. 2015. My salesperson was Grigory Rozenfeld. My wife & I visited the Edison dealership on December 25, 2015 (Christmas eve). Mr. Rozenfeld was very accomodating even though the dealership was closing at 1pm. We negotiated our deal after the dealership officially closed. Grigory remained with us throughout the time we were present at the dealership. We finally agreed to a price around 3:30pm. Throughout the purchasing process Grigory was very cordial and professional. He was very patient with us and explained the entire procedure very meticulously.My wife and I are very pleased with our new vehicle and will return to Ray Catena Motor Company in the future if we require to purchase another automobile.

New Year! New Car!Thanks to Tom Cola and Dan Contrell, they were super attentive and displayed a level of customer service that is unparalleled. The Gentlemen wanted to ensure, I left the dealership with the CAR, "I" wanted and the PRICE, "I" wanted. The gentlemen further escorted me to another serviceman who demonstrated how to maneuver all the new and shiny bells and whistles. YESSS!!!! Did I neglect to mention my new shiny flowers!!!!! A fews days later, I received a follow up call, about the car, "do I like the car", if not we can...I am fan of great service, we can all spend our money anywhere, however, when, great service is coupled with an awesome car, I will continue to come back. " This is my second time around with Dan" .Thanks guys, Madison

I had a great experience buying my Benz at Ray Catena of Edison, NJ. I went shopping around as my current vehicle is getting older. I can have another two years if I chose to wait. So I went with a lot of apprehension since I anticipated being pressured. But my husband had said "the good thing is you walk into one of these luxury cars dealers and no one ask you any questions." That was kind of true, but as soon as I walked into Ray Catena Mercedes Benz of Edison, Tom, my unbeknown future salesman greeted us and offers to help us around. After a thorough tour and information session we walked out without any pressure. I express interest in buying a 2015 ML350, but my husband was actually sending me alone to deal with Tom. Talking fear and nervousness! Is he really sending me alone? Maybe he setting me up to fail and therefore wait a couple more years before buying a car? So I went. Tom was very factual about the vehicle, it's features. He presented me two of the same model with different upgrades. Even though I couldn't have the more upgraded vehicle for the price I wanted to pay, Tom worked a great discount for me and sold me the other car at the best price I anticipated paying. More over the best work he did on my behalf was with the financing. Considering I have good credit he beat the rate of 2.59% my credit union offered me. The payments were still too high for my liking. So I increase the term. Tom surprised me by lowering my rate to 2.40% with the higher term. I was so very grateful for that, because I was comfortable with my monthly payments.Overall my experience at Ray Catena Mercedes Benz was wonderful. I appreciated Tom effort and kindness to not take advantage of me as a female car buyer, he patience in working out the numbers, and his enthusiasm in making sure that I walked out a satisfied customer. I must also say that everyone from the receptionist to the manager was very courteous and professional. I recommend Ray Catena, and I recommend Salesman Tom Cola.

It was a pleasure to work with Tom Cola. He is very knowledgable about the car. This was the first car we leased after being out of country for many years. The whole lease a new car process was very smooth and efficient. He even helped us with auto insurance. We will definitely perfer to work with Tom Cola again in the future.

Dealing with Tom Cola was a pleasure. I was honest with my wants, and he was honest with me and from the beginning, no games were played. We made a deal within an hour and it was one of the easiest transactions with a vehicle I've ever made. His honesty and courtesy made me feel secure in how things at Ray Catena are done. I will definitely recommend him to order people and will be back to purchase other cars.

Tom Cola was not your typical sale person. I felt so conferrable with him. Getting to know us was more important than the sale. We spent an hour with him and did not even talk about the car we were interested in.(first time we meet). Me and my wife we getting hungry so we left never to talk about the gl550 we wanted. I tom called me the next day and I told him what I wanted to pay for the car he called me back in 20 min deal was made. The car was deliverd to me at my job as promised the following day, and they took my old Mercedes.Was the easiest car buying experience ever. Tom made this a really great experience, actually enjoyable..Got a great new car and a awesome friend. Thanks so much tomSincerely Chris Cocchi

I always dread purchasing a new car, but this time I was pleasantly surprised. I actually enjoyed the experience. Everything was fast, thorough and efficient at Ray Catena of Edison. I had the pleasure of working with Tom Cola for my recent Mercedes Benz C300 purchase. I went to six dealers to find just the right car for me over the course of several weeks. I wish I had just gone to Ray Catena first. The service I received was second to none. The speed in which I received my new car was amazing. I built the car, submitted it to them and drove off with it the next day at a fabulous price although they didn't have the vehicle in stock, nor was it at another dealer. I know they gave me a great deal, because I had been researching this car for months and had all the numbers worked out. I have been purchasing luxury cars for 20-years and this was the best experience I have ever had, although I have owned several Mercedes Benz's in the past. I look forward to buying my next vehicle for Tom Cola and Ray Catena. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for Mercedes-Benz in the New Jersey area.

Great experience dealing with Matt. He was very friendly, honest and professional. He gave me the best price and did everything possible to get us the car we wanted. He even came in on his day off to show us the car. The customer service he provided was exceptional and I would definitely recommend buying/leasing from him.

I had the pleasure of working with Vincent Peluso, Jr., for my recent Mercedez Benz purchase. I went to several dealers to find just the right car for me over the course of several months. The service I received from Vincent and the greater Ray Catena family was second to none. I should add that I am an especially selective (read: time consuming, annoying, indecisive) customer, and it took me four or five months to choose this specific car. Admittedly, that is a bit excessive. Nevertheless, Mr. Peluso was extremely patient and helpful and answered all of my questions. I know from the deal that they gave me that they could not have made too much of a profit off of this modest sale, however they treated me as though I was putting down two-hundred thousand dollars for their top of the line model. Vincent and his dealership did everything imaginable to get me into the car I wanted, and to make sure that I was happy with it. Even Mr. Catena himself thanked me for making the purchase. This is the seventh luxury car I have ever bought (first Mercedes), and it was by far and away my best buying experience. I look forward to buying many more cars off of Vincent Peluso, Jr., and the good people at Ray Catena. I highly and enthusiastically recommend them to anyone looking for Mercedes-Benz in the New York / New Jersey area. Even if there is another dealership closer to where you live, youre probably better off just driving the extra distance and meeting with Vincent and his people, even if it's an hour or two away. Other dealerships and salespeople rely on the car to sell itself. Vincent Peluso, Jr., and the good people at Ray Catena sell you on the car and the entire experience, and if they dont have the car you want, theyll get it for you. Go there first so you dont have to waste your time anywhere else.

For the time get go, I received straight forward pricing, active search for the car and its options I wanted, highly professional demeanor and sincere effort to make the transaction go smoothly. Vince Paluso Jr. is excellent in presentation skills and in helping the customer make the right decision for himself with out pushing in any way. Very satisfied customer.

I am writing this review specifically regarding the outstanding service I received from Matt Kratzer.. I have been a Mercedes Benz customer for over 15 years and I have yet to meet a Sales & Leasing expert like Matt. His product expertise, courtesy, follow-up,, attention to detail, efficiency and excellent communication skills are very impressive. Not to mention his remarkable negotiation skills, he managed to obtain the vehicle of my choice within very stringent timelines, including plates all in an unbelievably friendly and respectful demeanor. Without a doubt I will highly recommend Matt from Ray Catena to colleagues, friends & family, he exceeds the Mercedes Benz customer expectations.

I am in process of looking into possibly purchasing a new vehicle, with Matt being the designated Sales Officer. While the purchase is still in its decision making process, I have to admit that Matt is top shelf individual who takes the time to listen, digest and execute. I ran into Matt almost a year back and then later visited the dealership recently.Matt, as one would say comes from "excellent stock", a well mannered, sharp young gentlemen who has all the necessary traits of shining in any career he may undertake. His follow through and follow up is second to none.Whether I purchase a vehicle or not, the experience with Matt has been very pleasant and certainly A1 !!!!I wanted to take this opportunity to wish him the very best for the holiday season and lots of luck in all future endeavors.

I was very happy with the service I received from the dealership, especially due to the salesperson Grigory Rozenfeld. He helped me find a vehicle that was exactly what I had envisioned and assisted me in the whole process in regards to understanding what the vehicle can and can't do, as well as all insurance options to make sure that I'm taken care of. I have yet to have such an experience, so I will say that I highly recommend him as your sales associate if you plan on purchasing a vehicle from Mercedes Benz in the future.Thank you!

I was very pleased with my experience at Ray Catena and especially with Tom Cola, he went above and beyond to make sure I got the car of my desire. This is my third lease with Mercedes Benz and first with Ray Catena, always went there for servicing since their servicing department is wonderful and is closer to my home, however, when I went to lease for the first time, I was not greeted in friendly manner. Did lease at another location and met Tom Cola, happy he is now with Ray Catena.

Just leased another car from Ray Catena's dealership. I started on the phone with Grigory Rozenfeld and he was so ridiculously unprofessional (not answering my questions, constantly interrupting me and raising his voice, not letting me to speak, pitching some well known facts) that I almost decided not to buy from this dealership. I escalated the matter to the General Manager (Robert Alfonso) to let them know that this person is hurting their business, and he took personal interest in my case and fixed things right away - it took him 2 minutes to make me feel like I'm in good hands again. Then Robert introduced me to Tom Cola. Tom was very thorough, straightforward, and at the same time fun to work with. He was straight to the point, withought used car sales techniques presented by Grigory. I was actually very surprized by Grigory's attitude, as I dealt with this dealership in past and all staff were very professional. To make long story short - I'll be back there for my next car, but will make sure to stay clear of Grigory.

I just recently leased my 2016 GL 450 from an 2014 ML 350. The dealer (Tom Cola) did an great job facilitating the transfer of my old lease to the new lease with minimal issue. The front desk staff along with the management were extremely courteous and made me feel at home. It definitely made the drive from Brooklyn very worthwhile to get this new lease.I have never done business with this particular dealership before, but after the experience I just had with them, I recommended my parents to get a GL 450 as well! I will be a customer for life.Great job guys!

I recently had the pleasure (11/16/15 & 11/17/15) of leasing my first vehicle from Ray Catena Mercedes of Edison, and what a great experience it was! I stopped into the dealer to just very quickly glance at a few vehicles and maybe jot down some prices, as my existing lease was not up until January 2016. Upon arrival I was greeted by a very friendly receptionist whom ensured me I would speak with a sales person in less than (10) minutes. As I reaffirmed my intent was only to quickly glance and that I did not want to waste anyone's time, she assured me I would not be wasting anyone's time, with a smile to boot! Within ten minutes or so, as I walked the showroom, I was greeted by Allyson Gutman, who came with a friendly hello, a smile, and a great persona from the start. I explained my intentions (or lack thereof) to Allyson and without hesitation, Allyson was extremely helpful and most interested in ensuring I was getting the detailed information I desired and moreover, was in no way pushy or "salesman" like in any way. (as I am a Global Sales Director for a tech company, this was important to me...) Additionally, throughout the course of my conversation with Allyson, we came to learn we have a mutual acquaintance, which made me feel even more comfortable than I already was, and that certainly helped to drive our conversation (and my experience) in even more of a positive, pleasurable way!Working with Allyson throughout my leasing experience was nothing short of fantastic! Allyson is extremely knowledgable about the product(s) she is selling, and she was eager to share that with me. When it came to price and negotiations, the process was easy, non-stressful, and Allyson worked with me, in detail, in order to get me into the vehicle I was interested in, even in lieu of the fact that I came into the dealer with no intentions of getting anything. That, to me, goes to show what kind of person (and representative of Ray Catena) Allyson is. I can assure you, I will be back to get another vehicle from Allyson after this one!I would highly recommend Ray Catena Mercedes of Edison, more specifically, Allyson Gutman. The entire experience was spectacular, and the enthusiasm that Allyson and the rest of the folks at Ray Catena bring to the table are second to none!Cheers to Allyson and Team!

Tom Cola was the best sales person I've ever had the pleasure of working with in my 40 years of buying or leasing cars. He was knowledgeable, experienced and straight up. I never felt pressured or intimidated. During my time with Tom I always felt he was working for me and not the other way around. He worked hard to get me into the right car with the right terms and conditions. It was also clear he was respected by his management and likely one of the top salesman in the dealership. The dealership was impressive, had an amazing selection of cars both new and high quality used in their inventory and the showroom and customer accommodations were top notch.I will be back and will refer friends and family to Tom and Ray Catena of Edison.

Ten days after my car was completed a major service in this dealership in Sep, the battery went bad twice. We brought the car back to this dealer to check. They changed the battery without a price quote and charged us for battery plus $200+ of labor fee. We asked the reason for this charge and questioned why the problem happened in 10 days after the major service. We got a Very Rude attitude and shouting from the service adviser and the worst Service Manager we have ever met. Showing no respect to customers at all. It is hard to believe a horrible Ray Catena Way of service!

I would like to express my sincere satisfaction with my purchase experience at your dealership. In particular I would like to credit your highly skilled representative, Allyson Gutman, who provided me with exceptionally superb assistance. She took into account every comment and issue I provided her. She tailored my visits to the times I needed on my very busy schedule. In addition she allowed me to perform multiple test drives during the day and night so I could complete my performance checks. I certainly would pin my satisfaction on her outstanding attention to every detail I raised and in addressing each to my complete satisfaction. I believe Allyson brings an excellent caliber to the dealership. She clearly stands out as an outstanding representative to work with.

Surrounded by all of those beautiful, expensive Mercedes and other potential customers, I was amazed at how much time Greg devoted to little ol' me and my purchase of my FAR LESS expensive dream car... The Smart Car. I first saw it in France years ago and fell in love. Now that I am retired and no longer driving long distances, the time was right for that adorable little car! My positive car-buying experience speaks highly of the Ray Catena organization and Greg in particular.

When into Ray Catena, I was introduced to Anthony Marino. From the get go he was upfront and honest with me. I have been searching cars for the past several months and every time I visited a dealership, it was the same story and constant aggravation. After meeting with Anthony, I knew this process was going to be smooth sailing. After looking at a few different vehicles, Anthony was able to find me my perfect match. I had no surprises, I honestly could not believe the way he went above and beyond. Anthony is such a great asset to this company. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a Mercedes Benz. I look forward to meeting with him again for the next one.

As a repeat customer of Anthony Marino I followed him to Mercedes and once again had a most professional, wonderful and excellent experience. It is because of him that I came to Ray Catena Mercedes. He was thorough, knowledgeable and passionate about his product. Car buying is usually stressful but with Anthony all that stress is relieved and I know that we are in good hands. He is an upstanding and professional young man who any organization would be proud to have.

What a great gift to myself, a gorgeous GLK truck! I appreciate that Tom didn't make me do the 500 back and forth visits and there were no secret fees or additional costs.

Had picked a car online which I had already test driven. Sales guy contacted me as I was a serious buyer and we negotiated on the phone and agreed on a price. Went to the dealership and put a deposit in. Next day, I get a call from the sales associate and notified that the manager will not sign off on the deal because the price was too low. Well maybe they should have discussed BEFORE taking my deposit and agreeing to it. Will never go here again and make sure none of my family and friends go here either. They just lost a lot of business.

This was my first Mercedes purchase, the experience at Ray Catena Mercedes particularly with sales representative Vince Peluso Jr was comfortable, relaxed and pleasurable experience, he was not your typical salesperson rushing you to make a sale. He answered all my questions about my new 2016 C300 Mercedes, his knowledge of the vehicle was very impressive, he was very patient and thorough. The color I was looking for (Diamond Metallic) was a difficult color and there was no cars in the showroom with that color, Vince made an effort to show me a sample display of the color so I could see it in person, most sales reps. would tell you to look it up on the internet. This will not be my last Mercedes purchase and I will definitely buy from Vince Jr. again.

We are repeat customers and found that Ray Catena has the most power to get the car that we want. Initially working with Robert Pandolfo and ultimately working with Tom Cola - were both a delight. Tom is not aggressive and pushy, but understanding and patient. He understood what we wanted and what our bottom dollar was. Although Ray Catena has a huge inventory, what we wanted was not available there. Tom was able to find our car and have it delivered to Ray Catena of Edison for us to pick up. In addition, the dealership is well kept, organized and clean ( including the showroom, the waiting area & the restrooms).

Being a young twenty year old entrepreneur purchasing my first car I with no credit history I was a bit nervous when I first walked in. As I was browsing Tom Cola was assigned to me for at first I appeared to be a walk in. My mind was set, from the start I wanted and needed a vehicle. Toms guidance through my whole process made me feel very cared for and also respected. Treated me like I was his own Son, knowing this was going to be an expense he was able to show and have me realize what I "needed" instead of just shooting for me to purchase something I possibly couldn't afford. Highly experienced and a pleasure to work with, Happy I was able to pull out a brand new C Class for my first dealership experience.

PAULA GAILLARD is the most disrespectful rep I have ever come across !! Someone in that dealership better have better supervision over their internet reps, Paula couldn't care less if she earned by business or not. FYI I was planning on buying 2 cars but thanks to PAULA you lose!! Don't go to this dealership , we work hard for our money go somewhere were they treat you with respect. PAULA sales is not for you , try Walmart !!

We started out looking for a Certified Pre-Owned 2013 ML 350, ended up buying a 2015 ML350. Tom Cavallino was a pleasure to meet and deal with. Very personable, answered all our questions and never felt we were getting the run around.Don introduced us to all the features of the car. Gave us his cell number should we have any further questions. A true gentleman!The tour of the service center was quite impressive.

We recently purchased the CLA-250 last week from Tom Cola. My experience with Tom Cola and the Mercedes Benz in Edison,NJ staff was nothing less then outstanding. Tom was very professional and knowledgeable with all of my concerns. Tom took his time to answer all of my questions and was very patient with us. Without any sales pressure, Tom made my decision simple and easy. Tom gained my trust and confidence and made my experience amazing!! I would definitely recommend Tom Cola to famiIy/friends and to anyone who is looking to purchase a car. Quality service and customer service excellence has been achieved. I'm soooo in love with my car and I'm very satisfied. It was a pleasure working with you, job well done..thanks once again.. See you soon!!

Great experience purchasing my 2016 E350. Anthony Marino made my purchase simple and easy. He is friendly, knowledgeable and got me the best deal without even stepping into the showroom. He is one of the best sales people I have come across. He went above and beyond a standard salesperson to get me exactly what I wanted. The type of service I was given throughout the whole process would make anybody come back. I would recommend Anthony Marino to anybody I know. He did an excellent job and I really enjoyed working with him.

Always great to deal with Ray Catena. Even better now with Tom Cola. I have bought cars from Tom in the past. He always makes you feel like he's working for you. Able to call him on any issue, not just the sale. Always helpful.

This our fifth purchase of Mercedes. Three were from Brooklyn. Our last two were from Ray Catenaand we came back a second time is because of the great experience we have had.Leon Pereldik was our sales rep and was just a pleasure to deal with. He is so informed about the product he was selling and patiently answered any questions with ease.The process was very simple because he handled all paper work in a quick and professional manner.It felt more like dealing with a family member than a sales rep.We will definitely return to Ray Catena in Edison for our next purchase.David and Julie Flannery

My wife was looking for a Mercedes Pre Owned vehicle and Ray Catena was the word on the street. When we entered the dealership we were amazed at the quantity of all of beautiful Mercedes vehicles on display.Tom Cola was the sales rep who assisted us. Tom walked us through the various options and was very professional and knowledgeable assisting us in our decision making.Great experience working with Tom who has made my wife very proud to be a new member of the Mercedes family. We recommend anyone that is looking for a new or used Mercedes Benz to visit Ray Catena in Edison and ask for Tom. Leo and Celia

Ray Catena is a beautiful and clean dealership! I stopped by to take a look at a CLA 45 AMG without any expectations or even looking to make a purchase. Just wanted to play in a CLA to see what it was about. Found a beautiful CPO 2014 CLA 45 and Tom Cola introduced himself for assistance. Tom was very friendly and gave me the space needed to look. Never any pressure for anything unwanted, he helped with every question with patience and professionalism. Ended up working out the price and Tom helped greatly with financing terms. Ray Catena let me take the car home to show my wife and talk it over. This was an excellent and no pressure way of letting us discuss in private and look over the car in person. In the end, I made the purchase and Tom has been great with assistance even after delivery. I highly recommend Tom Cola at Ray Catena MB to anyone!

My wife and I had a great experience with Tom Cola. We found a ML350 and had a price in mind. Tom worked hard to get us the car for the price we wanted. He was very friendly and kind. He wasn't pushy at all. Would recommend family and friends to Tom and I know I will be seeing him soon to make another purchase for myself!

I recently went to purchase another Mercedes Benz. I usually get my cars from either contemporary or freehold Mercedes because they are local to me. This time I around I was recommend to a gentleman by the name of Anthony Marino at Ray Catena. I called him and he had already exceed the bar. He was extremely professional, knowledgeable and mature. When I was on the phone with him I thought was an older guy. I was shocked when I heard he how young he was. The vehicle was for my daughter and he was really helpful with my transaction in helping me pick out colors, options, etc. when I finally picked the car I wanted, He even delivered the vehicle to my home with a red bow in the window. I was truly impressed. Finally there is someone out there that is not your typical salesman. I would highly recommend Anthony Marino to whoever is looking for a new Mercedes Benz.

We were in the market for a Mercedes Benz SUV and heard that Anthony Marinohad a outstanding reputation as a straight shooter in the auto sales industry.Anthony topped our expectations and not only is a straight shooterbut was a fun, easy going guy to work with. I wish more sales professionalswithin the industry were like Anthony.Our overall experience was great and Anthony showed great patiencewith all the stupid questions we asked of him!

My family and I have purchased 5 vehicles from Ray Catena Infiniti over the past 4 years. We have dealt with the same salesman over that span. My wife's 2012 Infiniti FX lease was up, and it was time to get a new one. When I went to the dealership i found out that our salesman, Anthony Marino had been moved next door to Mercedes. Even though our experience has been great at Infiniti, because of the outstanding service and helpfulness of Anthony, we went to Mercedes. As usual, Anthony put together a great package for a new Mercedes ML350 and we were done. I think there is no better dealership, and no better salesman than Ray Catena Mercedes, and Anthony Marino. Great move by Ray Catena moving Anthony to Mercedes, He is a great asset and a better person.

My father was in the market for a Mercedes Benz so I told him there is only one place he should go...Ray Catena!!! I have leased from Ray Catena in the past and it was nothing but the best customer service from the sales dept to the service dept so why not try again. When we got to the Edison dealership we met Anthony Marino. Young good looking guy dressed like a true professional. He was very patient with my dad. Dad likes to ask a lot of questions and Anthony answered everything. He made my dad feel confident in the choice of car and definitely for choosing Ray Catena. Anthony makes you feel at home and is honest about everything. Ray Catena is extremely lucky to have Anthony working for them. He will definitely be working in their corporate office some day. He is the type of professional that you can trust and he will make sure things are done right!!! As Anthony was getting the paperwork ready we had the pleasure of meeting his manager Robert Alfonso. A true gentleman. Very down to earth and wasn't your typical sales manger type. It came time for my dad to see his new car and we met Damian. He showed my dad the car for over an hour. My dad actually knew how to use everything before he left. Damian really took his time and did a great job. It's needless to say that Ray Catena has earned customers for life.

We recently purchased a new car at Ray Catena Mercedes. Allyson Gutman was by far the best car salesperson we ever dealt with. Knowledgeable, helpful, and patient - no high pressure sales tactics. The entire experience was great. From the size and style of the showroom, selection of new and pre-certified used cars, to the receptionists; and of course Scott, delivery consultant who explained and demonstrated how the many features of the car worked.

I had a terrible experience with Ray Catena Infiniti in Edison on 9/28. I called my salesman at Ray Catena Mercedes of Edison, Anthony Marino who I dealt with 3 years ago at Infiniti to tell him what happened a week ago at Infiniti. He tried to get me in a Mercedes right away , but the deal did not work. He then called me Thursday of the same week to advise there is a new program and would I mind if he worked up numbers to see if we can make something work. The numbers worked. Anthony wanted my business and worked hard to make something work unlike Ray Catena Infinit who lied to get me into the showroom and then could not hit the numbers they said they could hit over the phone. Anthony is an honest salesman that works very hard to sell cars. He listens and is not pushy which is very important to me when I am looking to buy a car. He is a true professional and is the reason why I went with a Benz.

This was a fabulous car buying experience made even that much more fabulous by Vince Peluso, JR. He is an excellent representative of a quality dealer and iconic brand. He was on top of everything, from finding us exactly the right car to getting us a very satisfactory deal which included a veterans discount for which I did not know I was eligible, and finally delivering our car with the class I would only associate with Mercedes.

When I went to Ray Catena Mercedes Benz of Edison, I was sure that I'm just gonna have a look at some of the cars, get some price,offers and get out to see other options. But what Tom offered me, I just couldn't turn it down. He understood exactly what I wanted and actually offered more than that with a reasonable price. I took 2015 C300 and have almost every option in it. Tom will try to help you in every way he can and he respond to every tiny doubt you have. He actually tries to be your side when you buy your car rather than just being a Salesman. I never thought I could afford a fully loaded Mercedes But i did. :) If you ever go to this dealership just ask for him.

I was spending more money to keep my BMW X3 running than I could afford. I was recommended to Ray Catena Mercedes by my parents. They had a great experience there, and thought I could get a good deal. They were wrong, I got a GREAT DEAL. I am leasing a beautiful 2015 CLA-250. Tom Cola was a superb sales-man. He answered all my questions, and went above and beyond to provide me with a vehicle that had more features but still within my budget. Everyone treated me wonderfully, and I could not recommend a better place to lease or buy your vehicle. I am not surprised that Ray Catena has won numerous awards, the staff are so helpful, Tom even went to great lengths following the agreement to make sure I was satisfied. He keeps in touch, and provides answers to all my questions and concerns. If you are looking for a Mercedes, go to Ray Catena and ask for Tom. Trust me, you will not be disappointed.

If you are thinking about purchasing a new vehicle, look no further than Ray Catena Mercedes Benz of Edison. Make sure you ask for Vince Peluso, Jr., who is not only knowledgeable about all things Benz but also a considerate and extremely friendly salesperson. I picked out a 2015 Mercedes CLA yesterday and Vince made the entire process painless. I was even able to drive it home that day! Thank you Ray Catina for hiring Vince, who not only sold me a car but also, a few months back, sold a new car to my husband. Overall, great experience!

At the tail end of my afternoon I pulled into Ray Catena MB to look at the S-Class coupe. I was introduced to Tom Cola and was given the tour of the showroom as well as models, surprised at the inventory the dealership had 3 models, The S550, S63 AMG and the impressive S65 AMG (V12) Coupes in the showroom to view. Tom is a courteous professional throughout the entire process, not pushy or troublesome. Great Job!

Tom Cola and Ray catena dealership in Edison are a perfect match to buy Mercedes. I drove 200 miles and left 3 dealerships in my area just to follow the excellent deal and service provided by Tom. Who is going to attend you at 9.30 in the evening and deliver you the car at 10 in night. Both times Tom took care of us late in the evening just to save our trip. The discount he offered were unmatched.This was my second experience working with Tom. I bought my car in 2014 and yesterday we bought another SUV for my friend. I referred on basis of my confidence with Tom and he really proved it.Last but the least I could say is you may get a better deal (which I doubt anyone can beat them) around but the service and courtesy along with Honesty of TOM COLA cannot be found anywhere.Love you Tom.

She drove a half hour to pick me up and take me to the dealership, picked up my husband at the train station- all to help us avoid an unnecessary trip. She is smart, courteous, helpful and the dealership is gorgeous! I highly recommend Christina and Ray Catena to anyone looking to purchase a Mercedes!!

I had a 1996 C220 Mercedes that I was very attached to. I had severe seperation anxiety. Grigory Rozenfeld was very understanding. I had seen a blue SLK250 advertized on the internet and decided that I wanted that car. When I walked into Ray Catena's showroom and saw the car of my dreams I could not believe it! Mr. Rozenfeld put me very much at ease. He never asked any intrusive questions or anything, no hard sale techniques. He let me decide that I really wanted the car. The entire staff, at Ray Catena, was warm and very nice. The showroom is immacculate and inviting. The entire experience was awesome!

I decided to take a day off and get my car checked out. The soft close doors were not closing by themselves. Dropped the car in early morning at 8:30. The associate named Guy took my information and I got a car ride home.Normally the call at noon giving an update of what's going on but this time I got no calls. So at 4pm I decided to call myself. The associate returned my call and said everything was ready and they would send a car to pick me up.When I reached the dealership the invoice said the problem was identified and fixed, but when the car came around the problem was still there. I showed it to another associate and he said he had no knowledge and guy would know. He agreed that the problem wasn't fixed even after their qa checks etc.So after 8 hours all I had is a car wash. I have to schedule another appointment now and hope they can get this act together this time

I recently began a quest to test every electric vehicle on the market. After visiting many dealerships and testing different brands of vehicles, I found that Christina was knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the B-Class. She answered all my questions, and followed up in a way that far exceeded my expectations. I am very happy with the car, but I am even happier with the way I was treated. I felt treated with the utmost respect by Christina and Ray Catena Mercedes-Benz. I was impressed from the moment I walked in, to when the car was delivered. Thank you Christina! You made a client for life.

I wanted a smooth, fast, and fair car-buying experience and received all and more of what I wanted largely because Vince was attentive and willing to go the extra mile to make things work.

For someone so important, he was very down to earth and as with everyone there, very friendly.

My first ever Mercedes experience could not have gone any smoother. From the moment I walked in, everyone at the dealership made me feel welcomed, comfortable, and very special. Vinnie Peluso Jr. made my first car buying experience memorable and positive. He was patient, kind, professional, and paid attention to my needs as a customer. In my opinion, he went above and beyond to make me feel that I made the right decision, and answered all my questions. He even made sure that after I was in my new Cla, that I was happy and that all my needs were met. Before I went to Ray Catena in Edison, I have never gone through the car dealership process, and I was skeptical and nervous about making such a big purchase. However, after this experience, I know I won't have anything to worry about. I can see now why people continue to go back to Mercedes. Great job Ray Catena Mercedes Benz of Edison, and thanks again Vinnie Peluso Jr. for your outstanding help!

Extremely rude salesperson. Maybe we didn't have the right look for a Mercedes owner? I don't typically dress to impress on a weekend afternoon.My wife and I went into to discuss a deal that we had negotiated at another dealership. Instead of talking through the differences and working towards a compromise, the salesperson more of less laughed and told us that she was getting the sales manager to, "come over and say goodbye to you". The sales manager, Danny, was actually very nice, and tried to save the situation. Highlighting that Ray Catena is known for their service. I dont decide on where to buy a car based on who has better coffee in the waiting room. When the dust settled, we ended up finding that the deals from both dealerships were very close, and they were actually selling the same car (from shared inventory). But after the way we were treated and dismissed, we purchased our new truck from the dealership that treated us like valued customers that were looking to spend a lot of money. Well, now we are Mercedes people, but I can say, we won't be going back here.

John was extremely professional, courteous, and went out of his way to make sure we were well taken care of. We walked away with the kind of the lease deal on a new GLK 350 that we were looking for and he was a straight shooter who didn't hassle us at all. He even went through the trouble of walking us through different lease deal scenarios so that we could make the right decision. I would highly recommend John and this dealership for their great customer service.

We have leased many cars from this dealership over the years. The Finance Department would have to do some additional work and prepare a letter for us. Our sales person Chuck and one of the Managers Joseph Scribellito have both had several phones call and e-mails sent to them and they have NOT returned any calls or e-mail. It is so sad that a dealership like this that we have had a good experience turn so bad. It is true that customer service is DEAD!!! Simply amazing that your finance department was NOT willing to take a little bit of extra time and help a long time customer not to even say that a customer that is disabled too. Not only will we be contacting Mr. Catena to let him know of the treatment and lack of service we received we will take our business to a car company that wants our business sorry that we took up your time you weren't doing us any favors and thanks for showing your true colors as a dealership all over a phone call with your finance department and Mercedes Benz Financial. Why was the other dealership able to do it and NOT yours because you are too lazy.

My experience at Ray Catena Service center in Edison was great. The service reps are very kind and the service is phenominal. I purchased a service plan with Ray Catena and and i just love it there. Mike Laudani, my service rep, really gets to know his customers as well as take care of them. Also, the welcoming lady is super kind and always offers to make me coffee, expresso, etc whenever i walk into the Cafe. The front door receptionist is also really nice. Ray Catena is the first place I'll go to for my questions and needs for my car. Hopefully this review is the decision maker on which service center your Mercedes deserves.

Vincent Peluso Jr. was a great help and made my new car experience magnificent. The process was very smooth and he was able to explain everything in details. The customer service was excellent.

My wife and I purchased our previous Mercedes-Benz cars from another dealership, this time our experience at Ray Catena Mercedes, particularly with our sale representative, Vincent Peluso Jr. was a comfortable, relaxed and a pleasurable experience. There were no high pressure sales talks, Vince understood what we were looking for and the options we wanted. Vince made the sales process go smoothly, we asked many questions regarding the new features in the 2016 E350, his knowledge of the features was impressive. He was extremely patient and thorough and took the time to answer all our questions. This was, by far, the best buying experience we have ever had. On delivery day, Vince introduced us to Pat, our delivery consultant. After some informal conversation, we found out that Pat came from the general area in Brooklyn that we came from, which made the process very pleasant. Pat, also answered all of our questions. He assisted us in establishing our connection with mBrace, set up specific personal features, demonstrated how to activate and deactivate certain new features, in the car. We also met Fred, the service manager, who was also very accommodating and immediately had one of his service personnel install wheel locking nuts on the new car. Vince Peluso Jr. Pat, Fred and the other people we met at Ray Catena, made our purchase pleasant, comfortable and a generally great experience.

I had an absolutely positive experience dealing with Anthony and the team at Ray Catena on the lease of my new car. He was easy to work with and got the deal done quickly. In the past, I've had to spend hours upon hours at car dealerships, but not at Ray Catena. I also got the exact car I was hoping for at a great price. I would definitely recommend anyone looking to lease or buy a new car to go to this dealership and ask for Anthony Garone.

There is a level of service that one expects when dealing with luxury brands such as Mercedes. I can truly say that the experience I had at Ray Catena went above and beyond to exceed those expectations. Scott Clifton delivers a great experience from the moment you step into the door until the moment you're driving away in your new car. He really listens to what you are looking for and makes that happen in a way that benefits everyone. I never felt like he was pushing services on me or cheating me out on a deal. Scott really made the whole process very smooth and had my car ready for me when I wanted it and made the paperwork process seem non-existent. There is also something to be said about the Delivery consultant, Dan who showed me all the features of my car. He was extremely patient and thorough and took the time to answer all my questions. Having now experienced the level of service that Scott Clifton has provided, I can truly say that I recommend others interested in purchasing Mercedes to go see him at Ray Catena. You will truly benefit from everything a luxury brand has to offer.

Vince Peluso Jr. made my purchase an awesome experience. I didn't feel pushed in any way (which is one of the things I hate about car buying). He explained everything to me and gave me the chance to question everything. I would come back and buy from him again.

I have dealt with this dealership for over 25 years. Gregory Giordano was a pleasure to work with. This is the third time I leased my car from him. My overall experience working with Gregory was excellent. I think he is the best sales representative I have ever dealt with. I will recommend him to all my friends and family. He was professional and efficient. He went above and beyond what a sales rep would do. Again thanks for such a positive experience!

This is my first Mercedes Benz. I have had many Infiniti's from Anthony Marino. This by far was the best experience I have had yet. I never thought I would be able to afford a Mercedes Benz, however Anthony Marino made it all possible. Like always he treated me like royalty. He even called me when I was on the way there and asked me how I would like my coffee prepared for me and when I arrived it was already made to my liking. He is true asset to the Ray Catena team and I will continue to purchase all my vehicles from him. Great job Anthony!

Dealing with Matt was a complete hassle free and fast experience. Absolutely professional and took the time to work with me to get the car I desired. I would absolutely go back to Matt for my next car and recommend others.

This is my first car from Anthony Marino and it wasn't like any other experience I have ever had before. He really went above and beyond to make this happen for me. Never did I think I would walk in and take a new Mercedes right there on the spot, however Anthony made this all possible. When I have purchased vehicles in the past it was such a painful process but after this experience I cannot wait for my lease to be up to see Anthony again. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for a Mercedes.

Mr. Anthony Marino was the sales person I leased a Mercedes E350. This was my 3rd car purchased/leased from Mr. Marino. He was very professional, friendly, and knowledgeable person to work with. Thanks

Mr. Anthony Marino was both professional and personable. We never felt like he was pushing us; but rather very comfortable with his expertise. He knew what we wanted and needed more than we did and after his assistance and guidance decided to purchase a GL550; with absolutely no regret. Damien was our delivery specialist and he provided us with a comprehensive overview of the vehicle and answered all our questions. When we sat in the vehicle with him we felt like we knew him for years and were amazed at how much knowledge he had. Damien also helped us personalize our settings and introduced us to members of the service area. Buying a luxury vehicle should be a luxurious experience and Ray Catena Mercedes of Edison and his staff offer that and more neatly wrapped in a fabulous showroom and service area. Thank you Anthony, Damien, and the entire staff.

I came in hoping to find a good deal and give back my old ML, and had the pleasure of dealing with Matt Goldberg. Very understanding and reasonable, not pushy like most other reps, and was able to throw in every incentive we could think of. He put me into the most beautifully (and fully) equipped Benz I've had so far and at a better price than anyone else I went to. I was so glad to make the switch from MB of Brooklyn to Ray Catena, where you get rewarded for having a car with them, not hassled for it. He was very knowledgeable about the car entirely and even knew where to take it on the test drive to actually get a feel for how it handles. Love the car I'm in now and can't wait to see what he can do when the lease is up. Thanks Matthew!

Totally thrilled with the experience we had at Ray Catena Mercedes Benz in Edison. Anthony Garone was extremely knowledgeable and easy to talk to, he made the entire process easy. As a first time Mercedes driver I would absolutely recommend Anthony and this dealer to all! Overall, we had a fabulous experience because Anthony went above and beyond. Thank you so much Anthony for all of your help. Love, love my new truck!

Since the first time I entered this dealership 10 years ago, they have never let me down. Especially salesman Scott Clifton, he is amazing guy and always helped tremendously over the years with his honesty and respect. I've just purchased my new 2015 Mercedes Benz C-class, this is my 4th Benz purchase from Mr Clifton. I always come back to this great guy because he gives me the best deals and help that no other salesman can give. He is also a family man like myself who understands what hard working people like myself is looking for when it comes to a new purchase of a mercedes benz. He is a professional and intelligent individual, I never felt like I could not trust him, always gave me a great positive vibe. He has been in the business for over 15 years, that alone tells you how much of a successful salesman he is and accomplished.

Wanting to return to a luxury vehicle we stopped in on a Saturday afternoon to research our options. We were introduced to Anthony Marino and quickly felt that were in good hands. Anthony is very knowledgeable and explained in detail the cars that were of interest to us. We have previously owned BMWs, Cadillacs, and Mercedes and never experienced the quality of professionalism, knowledge and service that Anthony provided to us. Not only did we wind up leasing a C300 for my husband but also a ML350 for me. We have purchased and leased many cars over the years and this was by far the best experience we have ever had!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My experience at Ray Catena Mercedes, and in particular with my salesman, Vince Peluso Jr. was a pleasure. The entire staff is obviously dedicated to customer service, and no one more so than Vince. I'm not a man who is easily impressed, nor given to the casual use of superlatives, and to be perfectly honest, I'm a somewhat of a difficult customer. I'm the guy that does his homework, and knows the answers to his questions before they are asked. I do this to test the knowledge and sincerity of sales people. Vince did not disappoint. He has an impressive knowledge of the entire Mercedes line, and spares no effort to ensure your questions are answered. And more importantly, he was direct in saying "I don't know, but I'll find out and get back to you" No B.S., I like that. When it came to making choices of options and colors, Ray Catena is well stocked, and Vince took the time to make certain I saw all the possibilities. A good experience, and one I will recommend without reservation.

I have been leasing Mercedes Benz cars for over 10 years now. I have visited Ray Catena a few times but unfortunately you could not get the previous deals i received. Again i came to Ray Catena and met a gentlemen by the name of Anthony Marino. he was very sincere and to the point. He actually gave me what i wanted without playing games and going back and forth. Even though i did not make the deal with him on the first visit, i knew i was going to take the car from him, and i think he also knew that same thing. I am very happy that i finally got to do business with Ray Catena and it took Anthony Marino to get me there. He is and excellent salesmen and i look forward to doing business with him again.

Today, we went to just look at a new car because my current MB lease was up. I thought perhaps I would buy my current convertible. After speaking with Anthony Marino, our salesman, he explained the advantage of leasing a new one. No way, did I ever think I would actually lease a new one today but after thoroughly discussing everything with Anthony, I decided to take the plunge and do it today. Am I glad I did.Anthony was so confident as he spoke and he answered all my questions and concerns. He gave me time to think things over and did not pressure me to make up my mind.He was straight to the point, answered all my questions without hesitation. I understood how this dealership would be the one I would want to be a part of. Anthony is like "family" now and so is Ray Catena's dealership!The manager came over and spoke to us-he put the icing on the cake and I drove off with a new 2015 SLK250! Yeah for me!!!

After purchasing and leasing from Anthony while he was at Ray Catena Infiniti. Me and my wife went in search of a used vehicle to purchase after our lease was up. We fell in love with the ML350. Anthony didn't have anything in his inventory at the time, but would let us know as soon as something came in. He emailed me back a couple of days later when they had received more inventory. What the exceptional thing about this was he was on vacation during this time, and was always in touch with me. He truly went above and beyond to assist us with our purchase. I recommend all my friends and family to him.

After visiting 3 dealerships with the information i had gathered from mb.com i started to become discouraged. While at the dealerships instead of listening to my wants i was instead trying to be sold cars that i did not nor did they have the specs i was looking for. When the first dealership i had visited was trying to sell me a car for $2500 over the final price(msrp,tax,tags) etc i was going to give up and head over to BMW. Luckily, i gave it another shot and tried a different approach edmunds.com.There i was able to view the cars specs, inventory, options and accurate pricing and then it began. I submitted a few inquiries Less than 24 hours later i received an email from Vince Peluso Jr. at Ray Catena and thats were the magic started to happen! At this point i was pretty well informed and knew what i wanted. I shared my expectations with Vincent and he explained everything to me to the detail by detail leaving nothing to the imagination. The only thing left to discuss was the price. The car was a little over my budget and before i could even mention it Vince blew me away with an offer i could not refuse!! A couple of emails later i was confident in him and ready to buy so much that i gave my deposit with no hesitation. The car was at the port and i was given a time-frame as to when it would come. During that time Vince worked with me to make sure i had all the necessary documentation and paperwork ready for when the car arrived. We continued to communicate via email at work and at home keeping me up to date until the day came when the car had arrived and it did exactly when he said it was. When i went to the dealership to pick up my baby he showed me her and she was shining and twinkling beautifully, he have all my paperwork ready and he had one of the service guys give a quick tutorial on the car. As if things couldn't get any better he also beat the financing that i came in with and saved me a few hundred dollars. Never in a million years did i think id be buying my dream car via email and the whole process took less time than one of the previous deal visits!! I wish i would of found Vince sooner it would of saved me alot of time and gas lol. No hassle, no pressure ,no stress, no lies, no games, no nonsense, no headache!! Vince Peluso Jr made my dream car buying experience one i will never forgot and for that i am forvever grateful. You have a client for life!!

I met Derrick 10 years ago when I stopped by the Mercedes show room on a whim. I was sick and tired of poor customer service by my local Toyota dealer, and had decided I needed a change. He happily showed my sister and I around, showing off the latest safety device....the emergency trunk release. My sister being quite the jokester, asked him to crawl in the trunk and show us how it worked. Derrick's eyes widened, as he took a deep calming breath, and said, "Umm okay"....with that, my sister started laughing, saying, "I can't believe you were actually going to do that for us! I like this guy!" I could and would NEVER put Derrick in the pot of, "Car Salesman", as it sounds so indignant and ungratifying when talking him. Derrick is the only person I have come to know, or ever met in this line of business, that has perfected the art of selling. From a ministry background, Derrick remains honest and faithful to each and everyone of his clients. He has never missed a birthday, Christmas, or called me about a new lease opportunity. Derrick handles all the paperwork, so there is no middle financial man in between. Who do you know would stay with one, "Salesman" for over 10 years?? Naturally I would say, "No one because they're a dime a dozen", but that is absolutely NOT the case with Derrick. His keen eye for you, the consumer, his deep rooted beliefs in truth and honesty have made him one of Ray Catena top seller's....and I can say this with all honesty because I first met him when he was just a peon with a small desk at the back of the showroom!

Over the years, I have purchased/leased 5 cars from Ray Catena dealerships, 1 Lexus, 2 Porsche and 2 Mercedes (the 2 MB with with the help of Bob Gold). In my opinion they are a first class operation from top to bottom, (I'm sure it comes from the top). While all high-end dealers should treat you well, considering the amount of money involved, these guys are a significant cut above. Firstly, they will work with you to ensure you get every discount/incentive for which you are eligible. Secondly, in my experience, and I consider myself a we'll informed car shopper, the final price and terms will be as good as you will find, and lastly when you go to sign the papers there are NO surprises. No shuffled off to the F & I department who will try to sell you all the high margin add-ons. Lastly, their service dept which I use for the MB & the Porsche. is also top notch.

We have been buying cars from Anthony Garone for the past 11 years. Buying cars from Anthony has always been a walk in the park, however the service he provides for myself and my family has been nothing short of fantastic. We are so glad he is back at Ray Catena, because the service we are given from the Ray Catena family cannot be beat. He is a valued part of our experience. He goes above and beyond when it comes to taking care of his customers. When it comes time for service, Anthony will pick up our vehicle and leave us a loaner until our service is complete, and than he will bring it back for us. We would like to recognize him and the entire Ray Catena service department for their outstanding dedication to providing outstanding service to its' customers.

I bought my c 300 in rockland county and decided to try the Edison branch for service because it was closer to my house. When I arrived I thought wow nice place they offer lots of beverages and food in their waiting room. When I spoke to the agent he said your car might not be ready today because they needed to order a part. Ok fine no problem I thought. Then I asked can I use a loaner car? Ray Catenas policy is they don't give loaners to people who bought their car from elsewhere, how stupid is that??? You were willing to service my car and I didn't buy it from you! Okay next question well what about a ride home? Response I don't think that's possible you live 40 minutes away and that's too far for my driver!!!! Did I forget to mention I was with my 4 year old daughter!!!! So here comes the kicker !!!!!We have enterprise in the building and you can rent a car from them!!!!!! I had to spend close to 100 dollars because I had no choice. I needed a car I have a child.There was no guarantee the car would be ready in a day . I let them fix my tire and said I want it back! I'm not going to pay anymore for a car rental .I used to own an Audi and went to Bell Audi. The customer service was fantastic!!!!!! Yes even though I didn't buy the Audi from there I was able to use a loaner when my car was being serviced.Disgusted and will never return to Ray catena or consider purchasing there in the future Lauren

Dear John Farrell IV; Last Thursday my husband purchased my first Mercedes at Ray Catena, which I'm very happy with. We came in with our two year old daughter, which you were very kind and understanding of and for that I thank you. My purchase was made possible because of your knowledge of the subject car; the high level of professionalism and service you provided me; your integrity; and the high reputation of your dealership. I believe that every business is built one customer at a time. Customer loyalty and trust are both earned through friendship not good salesmanship alone. Whereas you are indeed a good salesman, this letter serves to confirm that you have earned my trust and my loyalty. I feel certain that I will be purchasing many fine cars from you in the future.Thanks again, Jenna, John Smith and little Isabella

I had service done on my Mercedes that required some painting and the color did not match my car . Fred was quick to help me with my problem by taking my car back and was willing to repaint the part till it was perfect. However due to my schedule I was unable to wait for the painting to be redone again. Fred was very understanding and felt horrible for the mistake that was made. The paint was a few shades lighter than my car I understand it's difficult to match the paint perfectly. I'm moving to Florida and will be back up in September to have it repainted. Fred made good on the mistake that wasn't his fault !!! Fred is a very good asset to Mercedes Benz.. . People like Fred are the reason I keep coming back to Mercedes Benz of Edison . Thank You once again Fred!!

This was the most pleasurable car shopping experience I have ever had. Staff was very helpful and friendly. Most times I feel like I am being held hostage by the salesperson but at this dealership there was a feeling that they actually cared about you. There was no badgering about what I wanted my payments to be or what was my budget. I was asked about what car I was interested in, offered a test drive, and we then sat down to discuss the deal. Very painless and pleasurable. I have been at other dealerships where I have been there for 4 to 5 hours trying to make a deal on a car. I think this is designed to wear you down until you agree to anything just to get out of there. At this dealership there was nothing like this. I was in and out, with deal in hand, in a little over an hour. Would definitely recommend the dealership to anyone and I know I will definitely go back again.

Great service here from beginning to end. I requested an online quote, got a call, negotiated over the phone, came in to the dealership, met with Matt - he had EVERYTHING ready for us and made the paperwork a breeze. Another nice employee gave us a tutorial of the car, took us down to the service center, we were in and out relatively quick and we love our new. We will absolutely be going back to Ray Catena.

Matt took the time to explain the different in car models performance, feature options, pricing, etc. This is my first time at Ray Catena and my first experience with Mercedes-Benz as well. I switched from BMW 5 series to E350 and I believe that I made the right choice with Matt help. I will be defiantly using and recommending Matt service from Ray Catena in the future. Thanks Matt and keep up the good work!!AMR

I recently purchased a certified pre-owned CLK convertible and couldn't be happier. My experience was stress and hassle free. I was treated with respect, honesty and professionalism. I chose to work with the son of the agent I used back in 1999. His father taught him well! He was professional, knowledgeable and paid attention of every detail. I left the dealership with confidence that I am in good hands and any problem that may arise will not be a problem at all.

After a horrible experience with Mercedes Benz of Brooklyn, I took a ride over to Ray Catena. They did everything in their power to make my first Mercedes purchase a great one. Would highly recommend this dealership and especially salesmen Nick Abbruzzese. He was very kind and understanding. He was very easy to communicate with. He did everything in his power to erase my horrible experience with Mercedes of Brooklyn. Also, getting the opportunity to meet Ray Catena himself was great. He was very kind and very gracious that we choose his dealership to do business with. After leasing the c300 I could not be happier. Great car and highly recommended. All the sales staff was very nice and courtesy. They did not let me leave the dealership before getting the grand tour of this magnificent dealership. Cant wait to purchase my next Mercedes and only with Ray Catena.

Our first ML-350 from this dealership was leased nearly 3 years ago. Over the term of the lease, our salesperson, Allyson Gutman, called us several times to make sure we were happy with our car and that there were no problems. She called us recently to see if we were in the market for a new one. Based on our previous experience, we made an appointment to see her. Just like last time, we were warmly greeted by the receptionists, offered refreshment and while we went to look around, they let Allyson know we had arrived. She met us over in the showroom, told us about new features and answered all our questions. Once in her office, we talked numbers and made the deal.Allyson is a professional who knows her business. Being in sales himself, my husband appreciates expertise in others.Our previous experience with both sales and service made it an easy decision to come back to Ray Catena.

This is my second CPO purchase from Ray Catena. Melissa Lee provided excellent service for both purchases (C300 and ML350). This dealership has been excellent for me in both sales and service (Randi Weinstein - service advisor). Every time I enter the dealership I receive a warm greeting and am asked how I can be helped. This is for sales and service, from sales associates to service technicians. I would not hesitate to recommend this dealership for both sales and service.Bob Kaplan

I could not recommend David Wong enough. He is by far the most personable, professional, knowledgeable, salesman I have worked with. Not only did he take his time with me, but he knew exactly what I was looking for without me even detailing out every single criteria. I was so impressed by his ability to provide me with a customized solution that met my needs. He was very patient to explain every detail in the process with me and explain how each functionality of my new car would work. I never felt like he was a stereotypical sales person who just wanted to make a sale off of me. I felt that he cared about providing me with the best solution for my needs.

I recieved exceptional service from Vincent Peluso Junior. He was very professional and helpful throughout the whole selling process. He was very knowledgable regarding the C300 which I ended up leasing. What I appreciated most about his service though, was his efforts to keep me informed of the leasing process every step of the way.

This is one the best new car experiences I have ever had. The dealership is above first class and Allyson was above first class as well. I would never buy a Mercedes at any other dealer. Allyson went above and beyond.Stephen Papetti

Robert Pandolfo was quite accommodating and listened to our needs for a new car. Very personable and was great to work with. Always followed through and returned phone calls when needed.He knows the products very well. Would definitely recommend him to others if in need of a Mercedes.

My wife and I leased a new CLA 250 from this dealership. The deal they gave me beat out every other dealership we had visited. The deal was so good that it was done over the phone in a matter of 15 minutes. Our sales person Allyson Gutman was again the best I have ever dealt with and I recommend dealing with her to anyone who tells me they are interested in a Mercedes. Not only was Allyson aces but the managers and entire staff were all friendly, helpful and displayed excellent customer service. They have found a repeat customer with my wife and I. If your in the market for a Benz in my opinion you have to look no further than this dealership.

It was a pleasure renewing my lease with Allyson Gutman. She is an asset to the Ray Catena Family. I would recommend her to anyone I know interested in a car from Ray Catena Edison.

I just had a great experience as always with Anthony Garone at the Ray Catena in Edison. My lease on my E class was nearing its end so I traded it in for a newer version of the same car. I have worked with Anthony before and he continues to be extremely helpful and knowledgeable when it comes to the Mercedes vehicles. He was nothing but patient when I could not decide on which color car to get, and he was quick to get the paperwork in order. I will continue to be a loyal customer of his in the future.

I have been a client of Ray Catena Mercedes Benz for over 12 years. I have leased 6 new E class Mercedes over that time. Scott Clifton has been my sales person over all those years. He has always been attentive to my needs and goes out of his way to make sure I am taken care of from beginning to end of the lease of my auto. His follow up throughout the many years I have been a client is really unbelievable. I hear from him a number of times through out the year. He is not a "see you the next time your lease is up" person. His follow up is great. I can not say enough about what I consider to be a long term friendship that Scott has brought to the Ray Catena dealership. I would also like to mention that this quality of customer service extends to the great service I have received after sale. I have always dealt with Service Manager Tom Carvello. He is another reason I return to Ray Catena and have never considered any other dealership.

I went to look at a pre-certified GL 450 and met with Matt. We talked about what I was looking for in terms of must-haves in the car. He informed me that a car meeting my requirements had just come in and would be going through the pre-certification process. He keep me informed all through the process and took care of EVERYTHING that came up. He was great to work with, the dealer was great, NO issues at all. Thanks for everything! I would highly recommend!

Matt introduced himself to us earlier this year as the salesman working with us was no longer with dealership. He kept us updated on the status of our vehicle delivery and answered all our questions with patience. Once our car was ready to be picked up he took us through the all the steps and was a pleasure to work with.

After negotiating with multiple dealers for weeks I ended up stopping at Ray Catena where the staff was incredibly nice and sent John over to assist me. I was in an incredibly bad mood after just walking out of another dealership for typical sales scheming. John showed me and my wife our options, took us for a test drive and proceeded to give me a great price on the ML350 with no negotiating or haggling necessary. The car was available a couple of days later and John got me a finance rate equivalent to what my bank offered making the entire sale very enjoyable. Thanks for making a very bad experience end up being a great one!Brian

It was great response and coordination by Matt Kratzer. I wish to have some future car deals with him for me or for my friends.One week has been passed with my new Benz c-300 and I am enjoying it. One thing which I do not like about this car and that is less leg room and that's make me very uncomfortable. With in 100 miles drive I start feeling pain in my legs. Hope Matt Kratzer will help me to change my car with new c-300 or s-350. :-)

Matt had made the buying process a walk in the park. I was most impressed by his non-aggressive sales approach and his ability to make us feel completely comfortable from start to finish. He is an asset to your dealership and I would point any family or friend looking to purchase a Mercedes in his direction.

John was extremely helpful in identifying the perfect car to match our requirements and also sought to give us the best price possible. He also made the entire process of purchasing a vehicle far less tedious but being straightforward with regards to the usual negotiations, leaving both parties satisfied with the transaction.I highly recommend that anyone in the market for a Mercedes Benz speak to John. He is very friendly, keenly focused on getting you the perfect car, and honest regarding the price.I'll certainly be going back to him for any future purchases.

Matt's exceptional attitude to walk that extra mile for the customer is the reason I own my first Mercedes today. He worked for us to make sure we got the best pricing and the financing. We thank him for his dedication and Ray-Catena for having such wonderful people in their staff roll.We wish both the best and hope to stay associated.

Dealing with Matt Kratzer was as simple, clear cut, enjoyable and stress free as it can get. If the price wasn't good I wouldn't have purchased the car. That being said I was duly impressed with the number he was able to work out. Additionally his associate Paul Sanger was very helpful in explaining & demonstrating the copious features the car has during the delivery phase of the sale. It is pretty certain that my next Mercedes I will get from Matt at Ray Catena in Edison.

John Farrell was /is an excellent sales person! Please put something in his file to reflect the same, and please consider him for advancement in the near future.John is the type of individual one would want to recommend, for he can easily be considered a long lasting friend.In addition to John, the Mercedes-Benz of Edison dealership had a warm, welcoming atmosphere, making you feel comfortable and at home. Everyone there could not do enough for you, from senior management down to the receptionists welcoming you when you walk in the front door; inclusive of John's mother Leigh.I will definitely return in the future, as well as send family and friends.Kind regards,Angela Panarese347-922-8587

I turned in my lease early and upgrade to a newer and bigger model. Matthew and the sales manager Steve Chanis went out of their way to see that not only was my experience exceptional, but they worked with me extensivly to obtain the price I was seeking. If there was a higher rating for the 2 of them and the overall experience I would certainly give it.

I had a very positive experience and would recommend for anyone visiting this dealership to speak to John. He took care of all documentation, even things I was technically supposed to supply myself. I am now driving my new car and loving it! Thanks John!

I purchased a 2014 S550. Bob Gold helped me decide which options I wanted, explaining the merits of each one. After I placed the order he updated me frequently on the expected delivery date. When the car was ready he made the delivery, which involves a fair amount of paper work, painless. After the delivery he called to see how the car was doing and answered, or got the answers, to the few questions I had.

Matt was professional, friendly and courteous. He made sure that all of our questions were answered and continues after our purchase to make sure that we are happy with the car. Matt responded within a day to our original email unlike other dealers that took much longer to respond. In fact we received one response 2 days after we already purchased the car. I would highly recommend Ray Catena and in particular Matt for anyone looking to purchase a Mercedes.Joy and Marty Schreck

She greets and welcomes you quickly and offers some refreshment. She is polite, courteous and friendly. Over the years, I kept observing her selfless dedication with inner love, naturally manifesting her true divine affection in her daily service. Good job! Keep it up. Thanks Linda, you are an angel to many customers who flock into this company's service center daily to service their vehicles.

I have returned to Ray Catena for my second Mercedes. The service department is first rate but the reason I returned was David Wong, my sales consultant. David is the best sales guy I have used and I have previously owned/leased Lexus, BMW and Cadillac vehicles. David was knowledgeable of all the models my wife and I wanted to test drive, reasonable when negotiating the price and accessible through the deal including answering a number of questions after we accepted delivery. He also found a discount that my employer offered that I was unaware of. Combining the skill of David Wong with the service department makes Ray Catena the place to buy/lease a Mercedes.

Greg Giordano is the only reason we purchase from Ray Catena. He is the best, period. This is the 3rd vehicle we have purchased throgh Greg and we keep coming back beause he is direct, honest, responsive and makes us feel like our needs/ desires are always first to him. The consistency of our experinces with Greg over the years makes me belive this is how he works; not just an act to close a deal. I fully expect to buy our next MB from him.

We had an excellent experience at Ray Catena Mercedes-Benz. Anthony was very helpful, answered all of our questions, and made the entire purchasing process a breeze. We forgot to bring a piece of info needed for the purchase, but Anthony helped us work around it and even called the insurance company for us to ensure we were covered before we left the dealership. We would definitely recommend the dealership and Anthony to anyone looking to purchase a car.

Vehicle was detailed perfectly and everything that was promised was delivered. They even told me about a rebate I was eligible for and had no idea!!...........I would 100% recommend them to others and would definitely use them again. First Class Operation!

I had the best experience working with David Wong. He's not one of those "pushy" salesmen. He gives you the facts and then allows you to decide what works best for you. From day 1, he was honest, patient, and very informative. I'm very happy with my 2014 C300 and even happier that David Wong was the person that sold me the car.

Matt made our first Mercedes purchase an enjoyable process as his compassion, precision, and diligent work ethic were at hand throughout.

I highly recommend Matt's services and the Ray Catena dealership for anyone looking to purchase a Mercedes. In my opinion, a complete no-brainer!

The ratings are given based on my overall experience with the salesman himself. Anthony Garone is very considerate, precise, and satisfying I might say with the doubts I had about the upgrade itself and not feeling any difference with a newer year but the same model car again. Most importantly the timing and convenience was exceptional with the delivery of the new car and taking possession of the old car one. Not to mention paperwork (which is always time consuming), but this time and the only time it really felt like it only took seconds for everything to be signed, explained, and shown to me with complete understanding without me stepping foot into a dealership at all. I mean this was like a red carpet door to door service (lol). I love it (my brand new C300) all sported and dipped out! KUDOS to you Mr. Garone for leaving a lasting very impressive impression and experience with me on this new upgrade. My doubts turned into big "shout outs" I thank you again, for a truly truly wonderful experience and will see you again for the next one! =]

My family and I have dealt with Mr. Brian King on many occasions, and he has walked us through the new car process, many times over. Mr. King walked us through the sales and lease process with the utmost dignity, respect and truly looking out for our best interest. This was verified by trying to obtain the same price quote from a competing dealership, with the competitor finding us " funny ". We truly believe Mr. King would rather aggressively help the customer out with a sale, rather than be overbearing and aggressive for his own gain. He has our fierce loyalty. He is not someone who works in sales to us , he is someone that calls us on Christmas to send his greetings.

I have leased two cars from David, and both times, he made the experience so pleasant and stress free. He is knowledgeable and is articulate in his responses to my queries. He is friendly and has such a great personality, and is trust worthy. I now have been spoiled and will definitely be back when I am ready for my next car. I highly recommend him to others in the market for a new car. Thank you David; you're service is very impressive and I love my Benz!

This is the first time we made a purchase at Ray Catena. At the first, we were just looking for certain model, and not ready to make the purchase. We worked with Allyson Gutman. Allyson listens our needs. She patiently answered all questions we had. At the end, we happily made our decision. Allyson is such a pleasant person to work with. Overall, we think everyone from Ray Catena was very friendly and helpful. We really appreciate the service they provided.

I had a flawless experience in dealing with Matthew about getting a new car. As a current C230 owner, I wanted to upgrade to a C-Class that was 4matic (for inclimate weather) at an affordable price. Matt was very patient with me during my purchasing process-- as i was unsure if financing or leasing was a better option. He was very thorough with all the numbers that I was given. He answered any and all questions that I had, in a very timely fashion. He had me sold on a car before I even saw it! Great salesmanship! I ended up leasing a 2013 C300 4matic, which was perfect for the snow storm that was quickly approaching. Matt had most everything done by the time I came to finally pick up (and finally see!) my new car. I am so happy with my lease and cannot wait to drive it everyday! I look forward to being a Ray Catena customer for a very long time. This dealership comes highly recommended. They have a very warm and friendly staff, too!Great job, Matt!!

We just leased our second Mercedes from Ray Catena and have dealt with Dan Cottrell on both occasions. He is easy to work with, no pressure sales and he goes above and beyond to make sure that we are satisfied. Typically, I would dread the "car buying experience". Now, it's almost fun. We went to pick up our SUV on New Years Eve.and had our 3 kids with us (no school). Robert Alfonso the GM had someone bring the kids to get food and drinks while we were being shown the car. We travel 50 minutes just to deal with the Ray Catena group. Their service dept is the best, period. As a business owner, I can tell you, they do it right.

From the minute you enter the door until the moment you leave... The Ray Catena team is at your every request and beyond. This is one of many reasons why we have been purchasing and servicing our cars only with Ray Catena since we first stepped into his Edison location in 1996. For this purchase we had the pleasure of working with Allyson Gutman... Allyson is far more then a salesperson... She listens to our needs and caterers to our wants in providing an automobile that meets and at times exceeds our expectations. Her knowledge of each vehicle is beyond that of the norm and her attention to detail is impeccable. As for the price Allyson works very well as if it was her purchasing the vehicle for herslef and her family. When is comes to the paperwork which is never an easy task Allyson is a pleasure to work with and when it comes to follow up after the car was purchased Allyson treats you with a sense of care and attention that is second to none. Overall I speak for myself and my wife that we have a relationship with the Ray Catena team that will be a part of our family in purchasing and servicing our cars for quiet some time.

They make the process easy. Excellent service from beginning to end. Glen the service manager is outstanding. Overall a quality class act! The salesperson handles the process so picking up the car is a pleasant experience. You do not have to go to the workout guy (business manager) to get pressured and threatened to buy what you do not need. Ray Catena is a great experience.

We had a great experience at Ray Catena Edison, thanks especially to Allyson. She was very knowledgeable about the product, especially in comparison to competitive vehicles, and was able to provide the full range of financing options allowing us to decide on how we would purchase the vehicle. Within 20 minutes of deciding to get the truck, we had gone through a variety of scenarios, negotiated the price (including options and accessories). The whole process - walking in to walking out with keys in hand - took only 3 hours!! We also had the chance to meet the service department, which was very helpful. We got a 2014 GL550 which is a great car for a family of 5 (and for a sports-car loving father). Special thanks to Leigh for the Mercedes bears for the kids ... they also have their own seats in the car now! We will definitely recommend Allyson, Leigh and Ray Catena Edison to all of our family and friends (in fact, I already have). Thanks again!

We were greeted as we entered the show room, asked if we needed anything (water, refreshments, etc.) Salesman John LaViola Jr.was called to assist us. John showed me the model I was interested in and answered all my questions. We went for a test drivein a CLA250. Along the way, John pointed out many of the features the car offered. After testing an Audi A4 at another dealer,I returned and leased a new CLA250. A car was located that had all of the options I was looking for and was delivered in a fewdays. When picking up the car, Abel was very helpful in demonstrating the navigation system and other options I had selected.What was really great was this was accomplished indoors on a very cold day. Great facility for purchasing a car.Abel and I then drove to the service center and showed me the facility. Upon returning, John and I completed all the necessary paperwork and I drove home. A very pleasant experience.

I emailed few dealers with my options requirement for CLA which I wanted to purchase. John Farrell was the first to reply back to me. " we are very professional and I want to earn your business ". He immediately emailed me quote with by budget. John mention that he didn't had the particular CLA available in stock but he found the one with my options and it will take 5 days to have it. I reserved this car by placing deposit of $500 on credit card. Within two days John emailed me to mention that they had my car at the dealership. I replied to him that I won't be able to pick my car since I am 90 minutes away from Edison. He immediately agreed to deliver CLA in MT Laurel at my doorstep. John and Matt showed up at my house that afternoon and singing documents took 10 minutes. John Farrell and Steve Chanis ( Manager ) are truly professional. They made whole experience as easy as possible without me stepping into the dealership.Thank you John and Steve for making my car buying experience with Ray Catena unforgettable.

I previously dealt with Open Road Mercedes in Bridgewater NJ ... I switched to Ray Catena Mercedes Benz of Edison because I followed Allyson Gutman my sales associate from Open Road to Ray Catena in Edison ...I could not bring myself to go back to Open Road if Allyson Gutman was not there ... Allyson Gutman is the BEST anyone can ask for ... she is great to deal with ..treats you like family and makes you feel at home .. she is extremely knowledgeable and answers all the questions you have ... lets face it buying/leasing a Mercedes is a big deal and is costly and sometimes you get a little nervous ... this does not happen with Allyson .. she takes you through it smoothly without any pressure and before you know it she is handing you the keys to your new car!! ... Thank you Allyson!!All of the other staff members at Ray Catena Mercedes Benz in Edison treated me well and I am so happy that I am now dealing with them.

My key issue here is the service center's unfriendly and rude behavior. My car buy experience was very good but my experience with the service center has been extremely unpleasant. To start with, I call the service center and a feminine voice from someone named Douglas answers the phone. This guy/gal has no business being on the phone and talking in a robotic manner which is very insulting. He cuts me off abruptly while I am talking. He transfers the call abruptly while I am talking with no regards to the person on the other line. How can this guy keep his job despite being so horrible and hopeless is beyond me.Next the service advisers and only slightly better. The way they talk with a customer makes you feel as if they are doing you a huge favor. On every occasion I call them, the call gets transferred to their VM. When I leave them a VM asking them to call me back, the call is never returned. My local Nissan dealer's service center is 100 times better than Ray Catena Mercedes. At least they treat me as a human being.Otherwise I have no complaints about the service work on the car being done here. But treatment is equally important which is hopelessly lacking.

I recently purchased a CPO 2011 Mercedes E350A Convertible from Catena Mercedes-Benz of Edison, NJ. I cannot describe how great we were treated by the sales staff, especially Allyson Gutman and Steve Chanis. They were extremely accommodating and spent many hours in arranging and concluding a sale with me. They were not only accommodating but friendly and kind. This purchase was the best experience I have ever transacted in my entire vehicle purchasing history. I WOULD HAVE TO RECOMMEND NOT ONLY CATENA, BUT HIGLY RECOMMEND ALLYSON AND STEVE. THIS WILL NOT BE MY LAST PURCHASE FROM CATENA MERCEDES-BENZ.Rick L

Everyone that I met in person or over the phone was extremely pleasant and accommodating. Bob Gold is a low key salesperson who exerts no pressure while being knowledgeable and extremely pleasant. He appreciates humor but takes his job seriously, and very proudly. Everyone of the staff gave the impression they were one big, happy family without being Stepford-like. Patrick showed us the vehicle details and he was very knowledgeable and detailed.Best experience I've had buying a car, and I've bought over a dozen from different dealers.This is "why" I've given the highest ratings possible.

In addition, his pleasant personality made the whole purchasing experience very smooth. I highly recommend Eli to anyone who might be considering purchasing a Mercedes from Ray Catena - Edision.

My husband and I bought a pre-owned ML 350 from Ray Catena of Edison. We dealt with Chris Russo and we were highly impressed with his professionalism. He made the whole process of buying a pre-owned vehicle very painless and easy for us (something that we have not experienced at other car dealerships). He was very accommodating, courteous and we felt he was honest in his dealings with us. We never felt pressured to buy anything. His professionalism continued even after we purchased the vehicle - when we had some service requests, he not only accommodated us but went above and beyond to make sure we were very well taken care of at the service department. Thanks Chris for your stellar service!

I was overwhelmingly impressed with the Ray Catena dealership in Edison NJ. It is a first class place and they treat you like you are also.From the minute you walk in the door, the greeting, the friendliness, professionalism, and customer service is noticeable and greatly appreciated. I don't think there is anything they could improve on even though they say there is always room for improvement, but it is obvious that Ray Contena manages his dealerships well. Our sales representative was exceptional and would highly recommend him as well as the dealership to anyone.,

I was recommended Allyson by a colleague who has worked with her a few times in the past. Me and the wife went to the dealership looking for a lease on the C300 model. Our vehicle of choice was the Audi A4, however none of the dealerships I contacted, and worked with, were able to give me the price I wanted to pay.Once we met Allyson and spoke with her, it was clear that she was willing to be flexible and work with us and our budget - the objective being to get us into a C300 at the price we were comfortable with. With Allyson, we were able to do in one day what we were not able to do in 2 months with Audi.I highly recommend her, and am looking forward to working with her again in the future.

I have dealt with Ray Catena for both service and parts for my S 500 Mercedes and I'm always very impressed with their responsiveness, professionalism and reasonableness. Adam is a superb service advisor both from his knowledge, attentiveness and ability to work with you on the most immediate problems versus long term problems.The lady who serves as a floor receptionist that welcomes customers is outstanding. I'll always go to Ray for my car needs and enjoy the excellent service and atmosphere.

I have been a Ray Catena repeat customer for 28 years. Their commitment to satisfy my automobile needs with professional people at both the sales and service levels is fantastic. They treat me as if I were the only customer they had and of course I am driving the best and most prestigious automobile on the road.

I am very impressed by the professionalism demonstrated by David during the whole car purchasing process. He not only helped me find the car with the features I want with a good price, but also spent time to show us all the features when we got the car. In addition, his pleasant personality made the whole purchasing experience very smooth. I highly recommend David to anyone who might be considering purchasing a Mercedes from Ray Catena - Edision.

Looking for a new car to lease was a stressful process as a new college graduate. I was recommended to Leon Pereldik salesman of Ray Catena Mercedes of Edison by a family friend. Working with Leon was a true pleasure. He was honest and straight forward and made the process of obtaining a new car as simple and easy as it should be. He gave me different options and we were able to get the best possible deal for me on my new car. I can say that I will defiantly be recommending family and friends to Ray Catena Mercedes Of Edison.

I bought a new GLK 350 at this location. I worked with John Laviola jr during this purchase. He was extremely helpful and patient. I liked how he didn't pressure me and was eager to answer all my questions, helpful in working various numbers as I wasn't sure if i wanted to finance or lease. I will suggest the location and him as a sales person because of the great experience I have had. He was also helpful in giving me the best deal including my employer discounts etc that I didn't even know. He was extremely informative and supportive.

I selected the dealership before I had even settled on the car I wanted to purchase. The Ray Catena dealership came so highly recommended by my friends that I knew I wanted to do business with them. I was not disappointed. The entire experience was first rate from placing my order through picking up my car. Sales Rep, John Farrell immediately responded to my internet query on the new CLA 250 that I had read about in the car magazines. He was knowledgable and extremely helpful throughout the "pre-order" process (I pre-ordered the car prior to its introduction in the United States). He kept me up to date as I anxiously awaited the arrival of the car. Once the vehicle arrived, he efficiently handled all of the paper work and financing. The Ray Catena dealership provided hands on introduction to the car (my last new car was 12 years ago - much has changed in the technology available), even having me drive to the service department and introducing me to the staff there. The entire staff at Ray Catena was friendly, helpful and very congratulatory upon vehicle pick up. And, of course, the CLA 250 is beyond beautiful!

The experience at this dealership was very positive and professional. The people I dealt with were knowledgeable and willing to take the time to explain all relevant details. There was no pressure throughout the entire transaction. From an administrative perspective, the interactions were quick, efficient and to the point. The entire experience was pleasant and painless from the time I walked into the dealership through finalizing the transaction.

My partner and I have been a customer of Ray Catena for over 17 years and had a situation where we needed to trade-in both of our used Mercedes for a purchase and lease on two new sedans. Unfortunately, we have had some severe issues with the auto body shop (Quality) they deal with in repairing a small dent in one of our existing cars and damage to the same car by Mercedes Roadside Assistance when it was towed in for the last repair. So, we had been in contact with the dealership and management of all the people and businesses involved and have been EXTREMELY happy with the response, care and attention to detail on these matters while doing business with the customer being first and on handshake deals...something you cannot put a price tag on nor find in most car dealerships today. All in all, we can say that we were treated so above and beyond the norm by our sales representative, Allyson, and the general manager, Robert, plus Randy and Glenn in Service, due to our loyalty and the extenuating circumstances we experiences that it simply reaffirms our faith in this dealership, their service and commitment to the customer and quality. We would high recommend it to anyone interested in purchasing or servicing a Mercedes Benz now or in the future.

Ray Catena Mercedes Benz of Edison exceeded every expectation one has of a dealership. From the professional way you are welcomed to the dealership, the exceptional well polished salesperson in Allyson Gutman who answered all our questions and quided us thru the process. Upon delivery of our vehicle, we were introduced to their Service Dept who welcomed us to the dealership. I would like to add that this is our 4th Mercedes Benz and our third purchase at Ray Catena MB of Edison, and each time it gets more pleasant.I would without a doubt or hesitation recommend Ray Catena MB of Edison and our lovely sales representative Allyson Gutman to my friends, neighbors and relative's, without reservation.

Just leased a new GL450 through David Wong of Ray Catena Mercedes Benz Dealership in Edison, NJ. Gave me a very good price and service was excellent. I arrived late to pick up the car and he waited for me even though it was the end of the work day. Very satisfied with the service.

We decided to work with David based on the comments from dealer's rater.com, and it was a great decision. David is such a wonderful professional to work with. He helped us find the GL450 with the features we wanted and with a great price! He has everything set up when we pick up the vehicle. The whole process was very smooth and efficient. We have purchased 4 new cars for the last 13 years. The experience with David Wong at Ray Catena is definitely the best car purchase experience that we have ever had. We highly recommend David Wong and Ray Catena to any customers who want to have a pleasant experience in their next car purchase.

I bought my first new car from Ray Catena 15 years ago and Leon was the Sales rep for Infiniti at the time. I had a good experience at that time.When I was ready for a new car, I decided on a Mercedes and fortunately for me Leon was still at Ray Catena and moved to the Mercedes Division. Although I talked to sales reps from other MB dealerships in person and on the phone, there was no doubt in my mind that everything being equal, I would return to Ray Catena and talk to Leon before purchasing a new car. Although all the reps I have talked too at the other dealerships were knowledgeable and courteous as Leon, I have come to "trust" Leon which in my book is the key factor on where to place my business. Ray Catena is fortunate to have a salesperson who will go the extra mile to make the transaction as pleasant as possible for the customer. Thank you Leon.

I lease cars every two years, Brian has earned my trust and loyalty. He has spent a lot of time and energy making sure my sales were handled properly. I have already referred him to friends and family, which is the ultimate complement. I am writing this because I had to look up something on the website and saw that I was able to do so. So thank you again for being of service to myself and my family. Terri Gordon

The quality of Mercedes-Benz is beyond comparison. The reception, sales, and service staff were professional, service oriented, gracious, understanding, and exceptionable. They understood our desires and made certain that the vehicle we wanted also fit our needs. Mr. Robert Gold called us the following day to make certain that we were completely satisfied. Paul our technician was proficient in explaining the functions of our new Mercedes-Benz.

it was my first time purchasing a luxery vehicle, I visited the dealer about 5 times before finalizing the purchase. All times i saw John and he was very helpful, patient and knowledgable. I purchased other new vehicles in the past and they were never an easy and relaxed experiance. Im really happy with my purchase and would highly recommend Raycatena Mercedes of Edison and my salesman John Laviola Jr.

I recently leased a GLK 350 for my wife from John. He made the entire process quick, smooth, and most importantly - fun.He helped us choose the car that would work best for us and fit our budget, came along for the test ride and gave a great explanation of all the features. The actual transaction was quick and easy.We couldn't be happier with the car. It meets all of our needs and wants. I did some comparison shopping and the deal we got is significantly better than anything else we saw.The dealership itself and the service center are gorgeous. There are a ton of incredible cars in the showroom. They gave us our car filled to the brim with gas and waxed like I have never seen.Can't wait to do it again!

I purchased a 2010 Mercedes C300W4 on July 18, 2013. Bob Gold was the salesman who handled the transaction. Not only did he make this purchase "painless", but his professionalism and expertise assured me that I was doing the right thing. He, absolutely, is an asset to your organization. I will recommend Bob, as well as your dealership, to my family and friends. Thanks to Bob Gold and The Ray Catena Motor Car Corporation for a great buying experience.

I am writing to praise the Ray Catena showroom staff in Edison, NJ and salesman Mr. Derrick Fox. From the moment my brother and I entered the showroom, we received a warm greeting and offered a cool refreshment (it was a 90 degree day in New Jersey). Of course, the reason I was in the showroom was to purchase a car. Having read about the GLK 350, I knew that this was my choice; however, I needed to negotiate the trade-in of my 2009 E350. I have purchased two Mercedes Benz autos from Ray Catena auto over the past 7 years and Mr. Derrick Fox helped me with these sales so when I set the appointment I had high expectations that Derrick would know the automobile and he would know how to help me with financing. Derrick is always a gentleman and he is an excellent sales rep. He doesn't rush.....he doesn't push ......he shows the full line of Benz autos and he shows all of the capabilities and talks about the value(s) of the choices available. When I confirmed that I was primarily interested in the GLK, Derrick took me and my brother for a drive.........I drove so that I could see if I was "comfortable" on the road, in Rte 1 traffic etc etc. When we returned to the showroom, Derrick quietly and carefully asked me....."what do you think?" " How do you feel about driving the GLK?" Then came some challenges for Derrick. Frankly, the financial arrangements took patience and persistence on his part. In a very professional and sensitive manner, Derrick explained to me the gap that I needed to cover. He re-did paperwork and re-submitted my application so that I qualified to purchase my third--3rd--Mercedes Benz from Ray Catena Auto!!! I was thrilled. This is why I have taken time to write this extensive review. I appreciate deeply the professionalism, the care, concern and sensitivity shown to me that Derrick Fox and everyone who worked with him extended to me to insure that I, a loyal Ray Catena buyer, was able to purchase yet another Mercedes-Benz from this dealership.My overall rating is AAA++PLattimer

Greg is the greatest sales consultant I've ever come across. He's the only reason why I've switched to a Mercedes from a BMW. Greg understands the needs of the client, works on the case super fast and ensures 100% client satisfaction.

This was my second Mercedes that I wanted, and of course I came back to this dealership because of my good past experiences with them. I called up Eli Sasson, and told him what I was willing to spend, he showed me a few cars and the options I can get with it, I asked for a car with a unique color and options, a few days later the car was delivered and i'm extremely happy with it! I appreciate the service that I was given and will definitely come back to Mercedes Benz of Edison in the future.

I would like to convey my most sincere compliments to Ray Catena Mercedes Benz I'm Edison. Your entire team was excellent and my personal salesman, Anthony Garone is above and beyond excellent! I have bought 4 cars from Anthony throughout the years! He is professional, enthusiastic, and one of the most hardworking car salesman I have ever encountered. In fact, I trust his judgement so well, he picked out my new SLK 250 and it was better than anything I had envisioned on the Mercedes Benz Site. He knows the business and works above exception with customers! Your dealership should feel honored to have him on your sales force! I love my car and as well as your dealership! I will highly recommend it to my family and friends! SincerelyDr. Terri M Fuller

I went to Ray Catena Mercedes for the lease of my new car...E3504matic. It is my second lease from Ray Catena. My Salesman, Anthony Garone, was exceptional. Anthony was my salesman last time as well. It is the second time I had a great experience from Anthony and Ray Catena. Honestly, I have had many cars from BMW, Cadillac, Jaguar, etc. This is the only dealership and salesman I really had anything good to say about. It usually is a back and forth hassle. But, with Anthony everything is prepared, explained to the full extent, no hassle. There are no questions to ask, because they are all answered. From the time you walk in, to the time you leave with your new car, everything is taken care of for you. The staff is extremely nice, friendly and upbeat. Always positive. It is exactly what you want, when leasing or purchasing a new car. Anthony and Ray Catena have been the only recommendations I have ever made and will continue to make.

It was a good buying experience. Tim was very helpful. We were happy when Tim offered to deliver our new car to us at our office location, almost two hours away. It was great not having to travel back to the dealership to pickup the car. Overall, it was good service at a fair price. We would return to this dealership and make another purchase in the near future.

I have been dealing with said dealership since 2005. During that period of time I've found them to be most cordial, friendly and accommodating. Of particular note are my dealings with Mr. David Wong, whom I've dealt with solely since 2005. I feel most comfortable in working with him. He's very knowledgeable about the cars, is open and honest, and always conducts himself in a most professional manner. The staff there is great, always pleasant. They make you feel special when you enter the facility. While there's no doubt that there are many good sales persons at Ray Catena-Edison, Mr. Wong has been the primary reason that I lease from the Edison location. I have been very pleased with the service and would not hesitate to recommend Ray Catena-Edison to anyone who might be considering purchasing or leasing a Mercedes.

She is truly a professional and followed up with me on the C300 4Matic I was looking to purchase. I received a great price on the vehicle and she was so informative and explained all the additional warranties to have the car covered for years to come. The service provided was extraordinary, the service area at Ray Catena Mercedes Benz is top notch and I look forward to taking my car there for service. I am the happy owner of a Mercedes Benz C300 - THANK YOU Allyson for a great experience.

Buying my first luxury car had me quite nervous..Walked into Ray Catena MB of Edison and with the first hello I was hooked. Everyone from reception to the the sales people were great!. Salesman Artie Beyer was the best.He had 2 test drives set up for me he went over the cars with me and before I knew it my mind was made up. Artie was able to locate the color that i wanted and kept me up to date as to when I would be able to take delivery....He was on top of this sale all the way....On the night i went to pick it up we went over to the service center to show me where it was and where I would pull my car up for service. I thought this was great! I was glad Artie was there to share my excitement! He truly made this so easy!!! Thanks to all at Ray Catena you guys are the best! Thanks Artie for your patience!! I would recommend this dealer to anyone !!!!!!!!

Going to the Ray Catena Dealership is second to none. From the moment you walk in, the receptionists are very friendly and always have a drink ready for you. John LaViola is someone who is very easy to talk to and makes sure to deal with you straight and lays every option on the table. He will give you an honest opinion about the features and options of a car and whether spending the extra money is worth it or not. Highly recommended.

I had not purchased a car in 10 years and was concerned about the whole negotiating process so I went through Sam's Club and was referred to Arthur at Ray Catena. Arthur was helpful and very informative about the car I was interested in and the service they would provide at Ray Catena. Unfortunately, the dealership is over an hour from my house and I decided to buy closer to home. Even though I did not make a purchase, I would recommend Arthur to anyone in the area or anyone willing to travel the distance who wants to buy a new Mercedes. Working in the internet space, I know how providing your email address can cause an influx of emails to your inbox but Arthur contacted me just enough and was not over-bearing with his email and phone communication.

My husband and I were very pleased with the customer service from the moment we walked through the doors. The receptionist and Leigh asked our names and were very pleasant and accommodating offering us and our daughter a cold or hot beverage. We were directed to the car selection we were interested in as we waited for our sales associate John Farrell. As not to keep us waiting, Timothy Antoniszyn did a wonderful job assisting us with a few selections along with setting us up with a test drive until John finished with another customer. John accompanied us with two test drives, unfortunately we had to leave abruptly upon return to the dealership and told John that we would contact him within a few days. My husband noted to me that there was no pressure by John to stay and speak the the manager; a practice experienced at other dealerships.My daughter and I returned a few days later and Leigh greeted us by name and again was very pleasant, accommodating and personable. I told John that I was't really satisfied with the selection in the dealership and expressed what I was looking for, he did a search of off site vehicles, found one that matched my requirements and within 20-30 min a service technician delivered the vehicle to the dealership. We went for a test drive and I was sold!We came back that weekend to finalize the purchase and Timothy did a wonderful job assisting us again as John was working with another customer. My husband handled most of that as I sat with my daughter and her friend in the reception area. As time passed, Robert Alfonso, the General Sales Manager came over, said my name along with a "Congratulations." I had never met him but was pleasantly surprised with the gesture. There are more accolades to be told but I think my point has been made. We had a very pleasant experience at Ray Catena Mercedes Benz of Edison and would highly recommend this dealership!Oh, the best part was John delivered "my" E350C to our home...and greeted my daughter by name...Thank you John, Timothy, Leigh and Robert for a great car buying experience!!

I had always heard that Ray Catena dealerships provided great customer service, so I had high expectations upon arrival. And to be honest, these expectations were far exceeded. Everyone that I spoke with from the receptionist, to Len, Dennis, and others were extremely professional, candid, and welcoming. I never felt pressured and I was even made coffee and served chicken marsala while discussing various purchasing/leasing options and different financing opportunities. I will certainly be recommending this dealership to friends and family. Thank you for such a pleasurable experience

My wife and I went to test drive a GLK and an ML. We had setup an appointment but our designate sales person was unfortunately overdue delivering a vehicle to another customer. John came first to introduce himself and when his delivery went longer than expected, he handed me off to another sales associate. Handed! Not passed. He was sure to walk me over to my new sales associate. What's more, while we were waiting, we were asked by several courteous individuals if we were being helped. They offered us water, coffee, juice, etc. while we waited. I felt like I was a guest. This is how buying a car should be!The test drive person, Matt, had 2 cars ready for us, so we did not wait for the vehicles. We test drove the GLK, and then the ML. Matt was very knowledgable about the equipment and the options. He was sure to show us everything with which the vehicles were equipped. Matt was courteous and patient.When were done with our test drive, we were led back to Tim the new associate taking care of us. He was attentive, courteous, and very welcoming. Went on a hunt to find my toddler a lollipop. And most importantly paid him attention (after all, our son is the most important guest).Tim got us numbers for the vehicle and while they were higher than anticipated and we did not lease a car from them, I cannot say enough good things.No pressure and fast. We test drove 2 cars, got numbers, and left the dealership in under an hour.I highly recommend Ray Catena Mercedes of Edison. If you are in the market for a Benz, go here.

Our experience was easy, fast, seamless, and a pleasure; just what we wanted. We purchased two vans and we are very happy with them both. Thanks a lot.

Our experience with Ray Catena Mercedes Benz of Edison was superb. Excellent customer service and unbeatable prices, we called well over 30 dealerships across the country. Everything was ready to go when we arrived at the dealership, received a through run through of how the car systems and navigation worked, signed the paperwork, were introduced to the service department and were on our way. Overall a great experience, Ray Catena will be the first dealership we call when it comes time to look for a new car.

I would like to thank Mr. Robert Gold for another excellent experience leasing my 2nd Mercedes Benz from Ray Catena Motor Cars.Being retired this time around I researched prices in the E350 Convertible in the tri-state area. When I had all my numbers we called Mr.Gold and shared the figures.Bottom line, Bob said to come in and I will again find your E350 for the price to fityour financial situation . We drove the 60 miles (one way ) and leased a beautiful E350 Palladium Silver Convertible with AMG pkg.GREAT JOB !!!

He was able to get us the price we wanted on a 2013 glk 350. Len was professional, friendly, and very cooperative. He was quick to respond to phone calls and emails and helped us to make a deal we all felt comfortable with. He provided great service and I would definitely recommend him and the dealership was a whole.

I had a wonderful experience, everything was explained so clearly and simply which made my decision that much easier to make. Scott went above and beyond to make sure my family and I were we'll taken care of. We will be sure to visit this dealership again for future purchases.

Over the last three years I've leased three different vehicles from Ray Catena. The only reason I keep going back is because of the impeccable service provided by both David and Tim. I would highly recommend considering these two individuals for anyone looking for a Mercedes.

The purchase of my new Mercedes GLK 350 has been a very positive experience, mainly because of the knowledge care and concern of my Sales Repesentative David Wong. Mr. Wong was very knowledgable, compassionate, and understanding in his dealings with me. He is in a class above all other salespeople I have ever encountered.

My S550 was scheduled for service due to a recall. They emailed me twice to confirm the appointment and stated if I was not able to make it there on time or needed to reschedule to call them. I arrived on time only to be told they were out of stock on the part. Absolutely unacceptable.

It was a great experience dealing with Tim, he's young, friendly, energetic, eager to please. We came in and bought an ML350, then sent my son to buy a fully loaded E350 Coup. Tim worked with my son to find & order him the exact car he wanted. He kept in touch via emails to keep us up to date on the cars arrival. We picked it up 2 nights ago, and he made the experience so exciting. He took the time to explain all of the car's features, with plenty of patience. Now, we're coming back to buy a smart car. Tim suggested we take a look, without being pushy. That's what makes us come back to him to buy more cars. I don't know how many mercedes cars we'll end up buying because of him!What a great kid, I hope he goes far...

The salesperson, David W., was phenomenal - he had been working with me even several months before I decided to order the car. He was very patient and helpful throughout the entire process, and helped me place my order in December of last year. Even though I have a short credit history and we faced many obstacles in getting me approved, he worked tirelessly with MB Finance and with several managers to allow me to get the car I've been wanting for the right price and payment plan. What's more, he automatically reduced the price to a very satisfactory amount (almost down to invoice), without me even mentioning any sort of price cut. As this was a special-order from the factory, I already knew I wouldn't have too much leverage when negotiating price; however, he took the negotiation out of the equation and cut the price without any prompting on my part.When I was taking delivery, he already had all the paperwork processed and ready - he was extremely efficient and professional, and significantly enhanced my buying experience. Further, he even had the General Manager and the owner of the entire chain of dealerships come over to speak to me and to congratulate me personally. The General Manager even went as far as to give me a free keychain + all-weather floor mats from the Parts Department (I even get free car washes for life at the Service Department)! When I tried to thank him for the favors in helping me get approved and also for the free gifts, he refused my thanks and instead turned around and sincerely thanked me for my business.My salesperson and also another gentleman (not sure which department he was in) were extremely thorough in walking me through the many features on my new car, and before I drove off, David even went as far as to give the interior of the car a final wipe-down, as he wanted to ensure it was perfectly clean for me.The people at Ray Catena in Edison truly went above and beyond for me even though: 1) I took several months to even decide I wanted the car, 2) I'm only 23, and 3) While the C350 is a truly wonderful car, it is definitely not the most expensive car they sell. One of the other salespeople walking around in the building asked me, possibly jokingly, if I was a famous celebrity. While I am quite obviously not, every single person at Ray Catena made me feel like I was.I apologize for the long essay on the dealership experience, but they truly went out of their way to ensure I had the greatest experience possible, and I will definitely be recommending them to everyone I know. As far as the car goes, the interior is superb - very technologically advanced and very luxurious and premium as well. I wish the seatbelts were a little farther forward so I could reach them more easily, but that's honestly my only issue with the car. The transmission is responsive, and I'm not experiencing any lag or slowness with the pedal response (I drove a Nissan 350Z prior to this car, and if anything, this car seems to be more responsive). All the features work very well and are very intuitive to operate, while the exterior is simply magnificent. As a reviewer of this car said on YouTube, this car isn't measured in miles per hour - it's more about the smiles per hour, and from the moment I see my car to the moment I can't see my car anymore (and even after actually), I am constantly smiling. Great job Mercedes-Benz for making this car, and excellent job to Ray Catena Mercedes-Benz of Edison for making my buying experience so wonderful!

I give Ray Catena's Mercedes dealership 5 stars all the way. I am a first time Mercedes buyer and Craig Harris was my Salesman. Craig was friendly, informative and completely prepared for me when I arrived for my new car. He was awesome and so is my new Mercedes.

I have purchased Mercedes (21 in total) from a total of 5 dealerships over the last 33 years.When I was introduced to the Ray Catena dealership initially I purchased one vehicle and did not return simply because of the salesperson. First, he did not deliver the vehicle himself, he had a mechanic do the walk through. When I had a need to contact him, the return calls took days and sometimes never happened. I went to another dealership for my next several cars. My son also purchased at least 12 cars from Ray Catena and he persuaded me to go back and use David Wong. Well, I cannot say enough about David as person first and then as a salesperson.He gets a 10+ on both scales. David makes buying a car a pleasure and not a poor experience. I have referred several people to David. I get the same feedback from them. If you want to be treated professionally and have a good experience see David and then go elsewhere before you buy. I am confident you will see the difference.

Friendly courteous atmosphere. Sales associates were not aggressive. We were able to look at different models in the lot and inside without being approached until we were ready. We special ordered a car and were kept apprised of the progress by our sales representive Allyson Gutman, from when it was built to when it was shipped and when it arrived in port. Upon receiving the car, a gentleman named Paul went over all the functions and operational systems of the vehicle, taking over an hour to explain all the features. His knowledge and humor made the instruction interesting and informative. A positve experience from start to finish.

We were interested in leasing a 2013 Mercedes-Benz GLK 350. Upon entering the showroom we were greeted by a pleasant helpful receptionist who directed us to an area of the showroom where we could browse the inventory of SUV's. We were given the freedom to explore for a few minutes without any pressure or salesperson. After about 10 minutes we were greeted by a sales rep, Dan Cottrell, and we explained to him what our intentions were. He listened patiently and gave us an extensive description of the SUV and the various option packages that were available. He then took us for a test drive and continued to carefully explain all of the features of the vehicle. Upon returning, we were convinced that we wanted to lease the GLK. Dan explained the different lease programs that were available and negotiated a very fair deal for us. There was no pressure or "smoke and mirrors" involved. We dealt with Dan, and Dan alone. We did not have to play the, "Let me check with my manager ...," game. We agreed to a price and left a deposit. Later that evening Dan called us at home and told us that he had the car in stock and we could pick it up at out convenience.The next day we returned to the dealership and met with Dan to pick up our car.We were given an extensive education on every aspect of the car by a specialist. We were taken to the service area, given a tour of the waiting area (which is nothing short of magnificient), and introduced to our service manager. We then returned to Dan who completed our paperwork and were on our way home in our 2013 GLK 350.The next day, Dan called us to see how we were enjoying our car and assured us that if we had any questions or concerns to call him at any time. In all, it was truly a remarkable experience.

I recently purchased a brand new 2013 c250 coupe this was my first time buying a mercedes i met Ravi about a year ago at the dealership. I used to just go there and sit in all the cars and fantasize about me driving one one day . Ravi came up to me and told me that anything is possible and he said i can own one if i put my mind to it. SO i noticed the 2012 C250 and we sat down and did some numbers. the numbers came out fine at the time i just was curious to see what i would be spending. he told me to come back when i was ready and that he would be here waiting. So This past year i came back and was ready to get my car . he showed me the 2013 c250 and i was amazed with it. All the new funcitons the stitched leather .. it had it all He told me anything i wanted he would get it for me .. and sure enough he did i got the 2013 c250 with AMG grill , and wheels and the premium 1 package all for a good price. He was so excited for me being that i am only 24 yrs old andi was able to get a Mercedes Benz! When all the paperwork was done him and Matt Kratzer surpised me and told me to turn around and there it was my 2013 c250 outside shining on the platform. While Ravi Was preparing more paper work .Matt stepped in to show me all the functions of the new Mbrace the SAT radio and all the dashboard functions.I really appreciated that he took the time to show me how everything works. He was another great person that helped me with finding the car i wanted to. So my overall experience with Ravi and Matt was excellent . i cant wait to buy another car from these two gentlemen again!

This is my 3rd Mercedes and my experience with Ray Catena MB has been excellent. I had the pleasure of working with Allyson Guttman for my most recent vehicle and she was able to find me exactly what I was looking for within my parameters. She was extremely communicative via phone and email throughout the sales process and handled everything remotely for me so that I could drive down to Edison from upper Bergen County and pick up my car the same day. The paperwork was smooth and she had contacted my insurance company prior to my arrival so everything was in order. I'll tell everyone about Allyson!

This is the second time I worked with David on the purchase of a new Mercedes. He is friendly, professional and knowledgeable. He worked diligently to get the car that I wanted in a surprisingly short time and at a good price. I would recommend Ray Catena Mercedes -- and David Wong in particular -- to anyone looking for a quality vehicle and a pleasant buying experience.

We travel from Ridgefield, Ct. To Edison, New Jersey simply to work with Dan Cottrell. His service is exemplary and attention to detail extraordinary. From pricing to delivery, you cannot get better service than the Ray Catena group. Matthew Kratzer was exceptionally courteous, helpful and patient explaining and setting up the systems in my car.This is my fourth car from Dan and , God willing, not my last.I have two Mercedes dealers within 15 minutes of my home (Danbury and Golden's Bridge) and neither can even begin to compare with Ray Catena. Hence, we drive over two hours to New Jersey for our car.When you enter the Catena dealership, everyone is so friendly and you are immediately offered coffee, water, etc. and are made to feel special and very, very welcome. Dan Coteell, Matthew Kratzer and the entire team at Ray Catena deserve five stars!!!Carole Cousins

This was my first experience with Ray Catena Mercedes. I was extremely pleased with the entire transaction. The salesmen, Ravi & Vinc handled the transaction better then any salesmen I have done business with when purchasing a vehicle. The entire transaction took less then 1 hour which included my tour of the showroom. The paperwork was completed and ready upon my arrival. The vehicle was exactly what I was looking for and perfectly presented. The salesmen are assets to this dealership. I cannot say enough for this dealership and their staff. Warm, courteous, attentive and not at all overbearing. The showroom is full of vehicles, and perfectly clean. I have also had the time to visit their service and parts departments (for accessories). I was greeted each time at the door and was attended to by the greeter upon my purchase. The car is a 2013 CLS550 w/sport package and all but one safety option available. This is a fantastic car. I found third party reviews are high and true. The drivers experience is also terrific. I recommend M-brace as I have used it three or four times already. Extraordinary safety features and power. The dealership spent 1/2 hour with us describing each and every function within the car as well. Excellent salesmen, and a fantastic dealership.

I highly recommend Mr. Wong as your salesman. I have been dealing with him for 9 years now.

Allyson Gutman has been outstanding during the recent lease of my third MB. She was professional at all times, was meticulous with the paperwork, was always ready to answer any questions and was generally very helpful and friendly. Even after the car was delivered, I had further questions that required research on her part, and she was most willing to help and returned my phone calls in a timely manner. I have very high expectations when dealing with luxury car dealerships, and Ms Gutman met all expectations.

My experience with Ray Catena continues to be excellent. Just purchased by 4th car from them and will continue to come back and recommend them to my friends and family. Derrick Fox was super professional, very responsive and did what it took to earn my business. Overall, I hate the new car buying experience but Derrick & the staff at Ray Catena makes its super simple and friendly and different from other dealerships. My wife and I love the E350 that we just picked up. Best Benz yet in our garage.

When they say it's too good to be true it usually is, but Ray Catena and their employees proved this statement wrong for me. Experiences at car dealerships can sometimes be stressful and skeptical but I felt like I was treated with the utmost respect and honesty at Ray Catena. From the moment I walked in the door I was politely greeted by Lee Farrell and Brittany Torstrup and treated like family throughout my visit. Matt Kratzer and Greg Giordano were both exceptional in the sales department and were extremely cooperative, friendly and understanding as I made my purchase. They did a great job in working with my financial situation as well as delivery on my new car. I would highly recommend Ray Catena Mercedes-Benz to anyone looking for a personable and delighful experience.

In short I am very happy with my new E350 4matic (2013). I went in at 5pm on a Friday and was received by Ravi. The main reason I am rating him is because he did not come across as a salesman. He let me test drive the E350 and gave me the options that were available. He got me a great price on a 3 year lease and gave us a wonderful shopping experience. I would recommend him to anyone who is looking to lease or buy a MB.

The dealership is extremely friendly, knowledgeable, professional and helpful. Our sales associate Ravi was the best! He is extremely knowledgeable and spent all the time that we needed with us. We went close to closing and he did not rush us at all. He spent time with us even after the dealership was closed! He answered all our questions and went over all the different options we had when selecting the model and accessories... I would definitely recommend everyone shop at Ray Catena and ask for Ravi when purchasing their new Mercedes! I love my car and feel great driving it!! It was an amazing day and experience! And the expresso is great!

Our leases were coming to an end in 2 and 8 months. We were just coming to get an idea of what could be our future cars and we left having signed for new S and C class, exactly as we were dreaming of rthe budget we had. Allyson Gutman has been great and our experience much better than the one we had in MB Freehold a couple of year ago. A week later when we came to get the cars, it was smooth and easy to return the old cars and get the new ones. Great experience.

I happened to be driving up Route 1 and came across Ray Catena Mercedes. I was planning to buy a different brand, but my wife had suggested that I try other cars competing in the same class. So I just pulled in to see what they had to offer and to take a test drive. Fast forward (so to speak), I eventually bought my first Mercedes, and I am very pleased. Aside from the car itself, Ravi Mallela was the reason why I chose a Mercedes and Ray Catena. He listened well and showed me several options that fit my needs and budget. He was very friendly, professional and responsive, not pushy nor aloof like some other car salespersons that had encountered over the years.I eventually bought the first car Ravi showed me, which is rare for me, but not until I looked at others on the lot and at other cars and dealers. Ravi and Ray Catena Mercedes won my business. It was a positive car buying experience.

The overall experience I had at Ray Catena Mercedes-Benz illustrated that the entire staff was friendly,personable,courteous, helpful and honest,but not in any way high pressuring the prospective buyer, and very respectful of my desire to look at cars on the showroom floor without external interference. I am a busy physician so we had to make 2 quick stops at the dealership on different days. My sales rep. Allyson Gutman and the sales mgr. Bill Zimmerman took great pains to make me a good deal price-wise which resulted in the most haggle free car buying experience I have ever had in the last 40 years! Most of the details were then dealt with by telephone and when I had several free hours 2 days later I picked up my new car prepped to perfection. My sales rep. went over the car with me etc. I have to say that the attention to detail demonstrated by the people working at Ray Catena Mercedes is superlative and accounts for the good reputation which they surely deserve. Nothing was left to me to figure out for myself about the car or future service needs at their facility. I do appreciate the sincere attention I received and I believe that this is the usual and customary practice for them based on what I observed while at the facility and on what several other Mercedes owners have said over the years.

I would send all my friends to Ray Catena in Edison and have them ask for Robert Gold.Matt explained the workings of the car to me and he also was very helpful and patient.Thank you for a very pleasant experience.As always, Ray Catena had no trouble in finding the car that I wanteed in fast time. There was not a long time waiting for the car to come in.Phyllis Rich

If you're in the market for a brand new MB vehicle, you have to consider Ray Catena dealership. Once you get there, try to get Scott Clifton. He is the antithesis of 'car salesman'! He is friendly, a true gentleman, and he will work with you to get the best price for your new vehicle! My wife and I just got a 2013 ML 350 truck and the experience couldn't have been a more pleasing one! This is our 4th MB and all of them were purchased at Ray Catena. Scott Clifton will be my choice for my next Mercedes!!!

Being that I was purchasing my first brand new car and a Mercedes, I was a little nervous. As soon as I met David Wong, he made me feel like I was home at Ray Catena. The professionalism that David showed during the entirety of the deal was phenomenal. The overall service and friendliness that you can give on this rating is inaccurate because it does not exceed 5, in my eyes it is a 10! You will not find another dealership or a sales representative like David!

The staff, especially my sales representative Craig Harris, treated my family and me with the utmost respect and displayed a genuine passion for cars that has made Mercedes a prize to be had. My transaction was nothing but professional and I was provided with a wealth of information so that I could discover what was best for me. No pushing or influencing, just passion and facts. Great experience and I highly recommend this dealership.

My husband and I worked with John Wolkin in August, his attitude toward customers is very impressive. When we just stepped in, John Woklin came up to us right away with warm greeting and nice smile, we were actually shopping around and had no idea about MB, he was very patient and introduced almost all kinds of MB to us, we finally found one we like. In the past two months, the car shows high quality in all aspects and makes us like it even more. Many thanks to John and his team, we will definitely come back for another car.

He was so organized as we signed all of the papers to get the car into our hands. His walk-through of the car was very thorough, especially as he explained the navigation system's new features. I would highly recommend Tim to anyone interested in looking for a new car in the market.

Thank you Derrick Fox and Ray Catena MB for always making the car shopping experience a pleasant one. Although we could have gone with a less expensive manufacturer, there is value in knowing that we will be taken care of after the deal is done, whether it is in service or referring friends and family.

When I phoned Ray Catena Edison about a new car I saw on their website, I was transferred to Brian King. What luck that was! While I'm sure everyone at this dealership is trained to give high quality service, Mr. King went above and beyond the already-high standards people have come to expect at Ray Catena.He is extremely knowledgeable about the inventory and finance options and was so pleasant from the very start of our conversation. There was no pressure, only congeniality and good information. It wasn't scripted; it was genuine. I felt like I was meeting a trusted new friend, not a car salesperson. It's great knowing he will be there as things inevitably come up with my 2013 Mercedes Benz E350 4Matic.Maureen S.

I received the professional and personal attention I was looking for in my sales consultant Tim Antoniszyn. He has made my car buying experience exciting and worry free. He paid very close attention into my car buying needs and expectations that he actually exceeded them. This was accomplished through his overall knowledge of the entire fleet of vehicles that I was interested in. His recommendations also allowed me to make the best car decisions which led me to driving out with the car of my dreams!Thank you Tim! I will definitely recommend him to anyone interested in purchasing/leasing a Mercedes Benz.All the best,Faisal OrtizNutley, NJ

This was my first experience purchasing a Mercedes-Benz. I visited other MB dealerships prior to visiting Ray Catena. The moment I met Allyson Gutman I knew this dealership was way above the rest. Allyson is professional, dedicated, sincere, personable and very knowledgeable. Allyson introduced me to Patrick who accompanied me on several test drives (a GLK350, a C-300 and an E-350). Patrick is extremely knowledgeable about the product, very patient and personable. Allyson got me the car I wanted at the price I wanted to pay, handled every aspect of my transaction and stayed past closing to ensure I would drive my E-350 home that night. Even the security guard was nice! Allyson also followed up with me to see how I liked the car and offered to answer any future questions I may have. Allyson and Patrick truly represent the Ray Catena Mercedes Benz brand. I have already recommended Allyson and Ray Catena Mercedes Benz of Edison.

Derrick Fox represnts the company with first class by demonstrating outstanding service. He shows that he is concerned about his client and has their best interest in mind. At no point was he "pushy". This made made me feel very comfortable with having Derrick the the second time around as my sales representative. Additionally, he has a very nice sense of humor and is always professional. I will recommend Mr. Fox to anyone who is interested in purchasing from Ray Catena. I am truly a happy customer!

Overall experience was the best I have ever had thanks to David Wong.I originally started looking at the ML 350 about 8 years ago which is when I met David Wong. David Wong has taken me on test drives and maintained contact with me for over 8 years and never made me feel like I was wasting his time and I appreciate his efforts of keeping in touch with me after all this time. That is definitely out of the ordinary!! Last week I finally achieved my dream and wouldn't think of purchasing from anyone other than David Wong at Ray Catena Mercedes Benz.

Ravi came recommended to be from a good friend and was a pleasure to deal with and worked hard on finding the vehicle I wanted, and also worked around my hectic schedule.He really did go above and beyond to accomodate me , and even brought me to the prep warehouse to inspect my car prior to deciding. He is a good man, go see him.

On 8/20/12 my wife and I bought a 2011 ML 350 Mercedes Benz from Ray Catena Motor Cars. Melissa was our sales rep. She took customer service to a whole new level. We were extremely satisfied with the customer service we received. Her knowledge of the vehicle and the paper work involve was second to none. I gave her a grade of 10 out of 10.I would recommend anyone to Melissa and Ray Catena Motor Cars.Thank you Melissa for helping us with the purchase of our first Mercedes Benz.

My First experience with Ray Catena Mercedes - Benz was fantastic thanks to Ravi. He is one of the most respectful, intelligent, trust-worthy, and caring sales representatives I have ever had the pleasure of working with. He has all the qualities of a great salesmen and made my experience at the dealership the best possible. I appreciate the time and effort he gave and will certainly recommend and continue to work with him in the future.

We visited this dealership twice and on the second visit, we were definite about the purchase and we concluded the deal on the second visit. This was as a result of the courtesy extended by Mr. Pereldik and he was genuinely friendly towards us. He was ready to answer our initial questions and when we left the dealership we were more inclined to purchase the car that we now have. Mr. Pereldik is fully responsible for this decision as he always acted very professionally without any fear or favor. He reinforced our trust in Ray Catena and we would not hesitate to visit again.

We've purchased many cars during the past 30 years and we can honestly say Ravi Mallela was the most professional, most honest & most respectful sales representative we have ever met. Ravis customer service was exceptional. He was non-pressuring and very knowledgeable of the vehicle we purchased, as well as very knowledgeable of the services Ray Catena/Mercedes Benz offers. Ravi, a person of great integrity, has made purchasing a carwhich is a very big decisiona wonderful experience.

Let say first of all I went in on Saturday browsing not sure if I really was in the market for a car, then I met Chuck and by Tuesday we had a new mercedes benz being delivered on a tow truck in my driveway. Unbelievable, I got to day Chuck is a true professional in sales, not aggressive but confident in presenting the car for purchase. And the kicker is he is searching for another car for my wife now. He makes so easy, and I would recommend Chuck to anyone I know who is looking to buy a car. To end I have bought all my cars from Ray Catena's dealerships. A new LX470 from Oakhurst and not to mention their service department is the best.Thanks and keep up the wonderful service.William Mckenzie

We stopped by Ray Catena Edison to simply test drive an E350. We had a deal on the table for another manufacturer's vehicle and were recommended to another Mercedes dealership. After explaining our usage and needs to our sales consultant Ravi Mallela, he encouraged us to consider Certified Pre Owned. Within days we purchased a CPO S550.We generally don't enjoy shopping for cars, but Ravi was honest, knowledgeable, patient and respectful. Ravi did not provide any pressure and he was clearly looking to build a long term relationship. Ravi provided great personal service and I have already recommended him to friends. Within hours of deciding to purchase the vehicle, it was delivered by the dealership, with an offer to deliver it to my home or office. The Ray Catena Edison dealership is friendly and well located. The showroom and service location are tremendous.An overall great experience.

Out second Mercedes from Ray Catina and like always an outstanding experience. Deshone Drummond is an exemplary sales man. We had the deal we wanted in minutes- over the phone! No pressure, no beating around the bush. Just what you expect from a premier car dealership. Mr. Drummond lives up to the Mercedes name. Very professional and truly amazing! Stayed back late after hours as we could only get there close to closing time. Very Very Highly Recommended!

Today we purchased our fourth Mercedes Benz from Ray Catena in Edison New Jersey. Why would we travel almost an hour; cross 2 toll bridges when another dealership is minutes away from our home in Bay Ridge Brooklyn ?Our first experience in 2008 set a standard level that we have yet to find anywhere else. The showroom is packed with choices, the entire staff makes you feel comfortable (not pushy but there when you need them), the vintage car collection upstairs is phenomenal, the service center is extremely accommodating, assigned Service Advisors (ours is Mike Ladani he is fantastic), loaner cars, drop offs to a near by mall, the entire process from purchase to a complete after care makes my wife and I loyal customers.The cornerstone of the operation for us however is our Salesman; Bob Gold. Our first purchased required a knowledgeable individual with a considerable amount of patience. Bob provided us with information that enabled us to make intelligent decisions again and again from our first 3 C Class 4 MATICs to our recent E550. Finally, Bob is available after the sale (most Salesman disappear after the sale) ; because of his assistance there has never been anything that could not be resolved; including an exchange of one of our vehicles.For us there are 3 reasons to go to Ray Catenas;Mercedes Benz, Catena Sales & Service, and Robert Gold

We drove 136 miles from Scranton Pa to Ray Catena MB Edison to lease our new ML350. The price, the selection, and our sales person Leon Pereldik made the drive to Edison NJ well worth it. Having not seen the ML350 in person before purchase, Leon answered all our questions and e-mailed us detailed pictures of the vehicle. When we arrived at the dealership, all the paperwork was neatly organized and the transaction was quick, smooth, and efficient. Every automobile purchase should be this pleasurable. Thanks Leon!

My wife and I can not say enough good things about the Ray Catena Mercedes-Benz Dealership on Rte 1 in Edison NJ. We had done some extensive research on purchasing our new car and we had narrowed down our selection from the BMW 328I, BMW 528I, Mercedes E350 and the Mercedes C300 4Matic. During this search we visited a variety of dealerships throughout NJ. You would think that they would be bascially the same and expect the highest levels of professionalism and service from a high end car dealership, I can assure you this is simply not the case. Ray Catena and his dealership team, especially our salesman Ravi Mallela, truly set a standard that no other dealership could meet. The professionalism, attention to detail, courtesy, and product knowledge started from the moment we walked into the dealership and continued to the point we took delivery of our new 2012 Mercede-Benz C300 4Matic.Thank you Ravi Mallela and the entire Ray Catena Mercedes-Benz team for making this purchase easy and helping us live our life long dream of owning our very first Mercedes-Benz.

He went above and beyond in terms of customer service by delivering the vehicle to my home -- saving me a trip back to the dealership. He also continues to answer questions about the vehicle and is very knowledgeable about every aspect of the car's features and functionality. The dealership is spotless and had every vehicle I wanted to see available in the showroom. I will definitely shop there again for my next car!

John Wolkin is the dealer that assisted me and my wife in choosing the right car for a rignt price. John is very friendly, very hospitable, caring and accomodating and answered all our questions regarding the right kind of car for us. He was the kind of guy that you like to deal with, he was very helpful and even did the job for us in getting VIN number in our BMW car to be traded-in. He offered us drinks that satisfied our thirst due to very hot weather outside the dealership facility. He also let us test drove the Merdeces GLK 350 around and visited the Daimler-Benz service department. In other words me and wife were so happy and very satisfied of John Wolkin incredible and excellent total customer care service. We recommend him to be the model employee of your company.

Robert Gold, the sales rep we worked with is one of the best car salesman i have ever done business with. Bob, is a wonderful Person, very respectful, courteous, talented, informative, smiling and friendly person. He helped us get the best deal. We've been in the market looking for Benz for the past 2 years and no other sales person has helped us getting such a good deal and making our dream of owning a benz come true. So until now we could never achieve our benz dream. He got us the car we wanted, the color we wanted(we were very particular on the color and model) , in the budget we wanted. It was an amazing experience. Hassle free person he is. We thank Mr. Robert Gold for making our dream come true. Thanks Bob for everything you did and we appreciate how you handled our account getting us the EXACT car we always wanted. We are enjoying the car and I recommend and rate Mr. Robert Gold 5 stars!!!.Proud owners of a NEW Benz :--)Mr. and Mrs. kakani

I just leased a 2012 MB GL450 from Melissa Lee of Ray Catena Mercedes of Edison and once again it has been a pleasurable experience. This is my third lease of a Mercedes from Melissa and I find her to be knowledgeable, competent, and a pleasure to deal with. The whole team from sales to service at Ray Catena have been great. The customer service is why I keep going back to Ray Catena. From my sales experience with Melissa to the great service with Fred Della Femina and Guy Paone. I had my brother in-law come from Pennsylvania and he was so impressed with the customer service that he leased a GL from Melissa as well.

Overall great experience buying from Ray Catena, and especially working with Ravi. From the beginning, I had told them of no haggling - give me one price, and I will go with it or not. No negotiation after that. And that's how Ravi made it work for me. The front desk of Ray Catena is also very friendly, responsive, and courteous - they treat you with lot of respect and get friendly when appropriate. I was also very pleased with the amount of inventory they had - plenty of options to choose from.

My husband and I cannot say enough about the quality of service we received from the Ray Catena Mercedes Benz team of Edison. A week before we went to Ray Catena of Union to trade in my 2009 Mazda CX9 and lease a GLK. Needless to say we were not given the type of service and accomodation we should have received, and, quite frankly felt insulted. We then spoke with Doug Wells, General Manager of the Edison franchise who worked tirelessly to find us the right lease deal and took care of the Mazda. This is a team who understands people and will go to great lengths to win their loyalty to the brand and make them feel like they matter. Kudos to Doug, Steve and the rest of the group. We will be telling our friends and family about them and will refer Ray Catenda of Edison without question. They should be rewarded for their efforts and customer satisfaction. Pam and Mike Webb

Walked in this week just to take a look at the cars Ray Catena Mercedes had to offer,I was greeted pleasantly as soon as I walked in, I was offered a drink while I waited for my sales Executive Eli Sasson, Eli was patient and showed me all the latest models, even took me into the stock area to see all the different colors and cars with different exterior options, interior options and colors. I even asked to see some pre owned cars and Eli was patient and willing to walk me around to help me make a decision i was happy with. At the end I wound up with a NEW E-Class outfitted exactly the way i wanted it and at a great price! I would recommend Ray Catena to anyone looking for a luxury car in NY or NJ. i need to mention the dealership itself in Edison is very impressive !

My dealings with Greg Giordano of Ray Catina of Edison for my new M-B GL450 have been nothing short of superb. This is my third lease of a M-B from Greg and I find him to be ethical, knowledgeable, competent, and above all, a gentleman in all dealings. I now do not need to comparison shop at any other dealer since I know that I have already found the best, both in price and in customer service. The selection of cars is always there to satisfy all my needs and the entire process from purchase to delivery is flawless. Greg makes sure I am satisfied not just before the sale, but after as well. In the scheme of quality role models, in the Crosby tradition, Greg and Ray Catina M-B are the top role models. The entire team deserves congratulations.J. Laferrera

Process was very simple. Literally called her up (I have purchased a car from her before), told her what I wanted. We negotiated price over two days via e-mail. When we settled on price I scheduled a time and when I pulled up, the car was in front of the building ready to go. Signing docs at her dest took 10 minutes and my wife and I were out the door after a brief photo opportunity. I got a great deal with more options and a lessor price that what was quoted at another dealer I purchased two cars from in the past. If you want service at a fair and honest price, Melissa is your girl.

I recently purchased a 2012 Mercedes C300 4MATIC Sport from Ray Catena Mercedes of Edison. My expeirence from the minute I walked in the door until the moment I drove my new car home was wonderful. Everyone was friendly and knowledgeable. My particular salesman Tim Antoniszyn came recommended to me by someone at another ray catena dealership and I'm so happy I was referred to him. Tim was very pleasent and accomodating; he worked hard to get me the car I wanted for the price that fit into my budget. Even now after owning the car a few months Tim is still accomodating with any questions and/or services I need regarding my new vehicle. In the end I am very pleased with my purchase and will definitely be returning to this dealership in the future.

After visiting a few different car dealerships that afternoon, we decided to take a look at the different models available at Ray Catena Mercedes-Benz. Our prior experiences that day had left us feeling less than enthusiastic about visiting another dealership, but with my wife's lease ending soon, we felt obligated to make the most of the day. When we entered the dealership, we were immediately greeted, though not by a sales representative. We were afforded an opportunity to look around for a little while. After a few minutes a sales representative (Timothy Atoniszyn) greeted us. We immediately sensed that this would be a different experience. Tim was interested in what we were looking for and took the time to listen to our specific needs and interests. That began a wonderful experience, which concluded with us purchasing and taking deliver of a car that afternoon. Tim made the entire process, from choosing a vehicle that fit our needs to negotiating a price, an unexpectedly enjoyable experience. The entire time we were at Ray Catena, we felt that the staff went out of their way to make sure our experience was first class, which we definitely did.

I just got my third car from Leon Pereldik at Ray Catena MB of Edison and the experience once again left me extremely satisfied. Leon was knowledgeable, professional, friendly, provided the best price around and made very efficient use of my and his time. I want to stress that his involvement did not stop at signing documents. He made few follow up calls to make sure that everything was fine with the vehicle and I received car registration. In the past he was very helpful when I had general questions or needed to set up service appointments. I do not hesitate to recommend Leon and Ray Catena MB of Edison to my friends and family and some of them have already become his customers.Thank you!

Amazing Experience! From my emails with Paula, to my meeting and dealing with John and Gary. This is my second Mercedes and I traveled 50mins. to buy from this team. So accommodating - another dealer was competing for my business and this team handled it so great, John educated me and really worked through the numbers with me so I could make a comfortable informative decision. I had my 10 yr old son with me and they spoiled him (they know how to get to a mothers heart)! Even when he got antsy, they made it seem like no problem. I also have to mention the front desk team... was so pleasant. Overall, all that you would expect from a Mercedes Dealer and then some... professional, polite, considerate, kind and Thoughtful. At one point after we were done with our deal - I thought for a moment, "maybe I want a different color?", and still Gary said; "If you want it, we will change it!" This was truely a guest service experience! Thank you, Angela

Christopher Russo was extremely professional, honest and courteous through out the vehicle purchase process. He went above and beyond in meeting plus exceeding my grueling demands for the vehicle I purchased. I had the vehicle specially ordered to my liking and Mr. Russo kept in constant contact through out the process, keeping me informed of every step in the process. I have dealt with several vehicle dealers in my years of experience and none have come even close to his level of professionalism. It has also been my experience that after you pick up your new vehicle the dealer tends to just disappear and avoid any problems or concerns you have. Mr. Russo has done the complete opposite, in fact he actually contacts me on a regular basis to ask about my experiences with the vehicle and addresses any concerns I may have. Sure, every dealer will be your best friend when you are in the process of buying a vehicle, but we all know that ends as soon as you drive off the lot. I challenge you to find someone more professional and genuinely as caring about their customers as Mr. Russo is. If you do, please let me know, but I don't expect that anyone will find such. I would recommend no other dealer when purchasing a Mercedes Benz!

John Wolklin was our salesperson, and from the start, I was impressed with his professionalism. He was courteous, informative and efficient. He listened to our questions and showed us exactly the kind of vehicle we wanted without trying to convince us we wanted something else. He was very responsive to phone calls and emails. He took photos of a car, inside and out, with his own camera and sent them to me by email. He didn't waste our time, but instead was ready with pertinent information and with organized paperwork. It was a pleasure to work with him. Nicole C.

Excellent service, staff & facilities. I was very impressed & highly recommend using this dealership for anyone planing on purchasing a Mercedes Benz. I also recommend using Eli Sasson as your salesman, he was excellent & very clear on everything a person should know before making a purchase.

This past May, 2012, I leased a 2012 Mercedes GL450 from Ray Catena Mercedes. I had the pleasure of working with Mr. Chuck Luciano. I am writing to commend him on the level of customer service that I received and continue to receive from Ray Catena as a consequence of Mr. Luciano's professionalism and attention to the highest level of customer care. The transaction was effortless without Mr. Luciano resorting to any type of hard sell tactics. Any questions or issues regarding the car, Chuck has been available to provide support and answers. Simply stated, in the future, I will not purchase or lease a Mercedes from any other dealership other than Ray Catena, and I will continue to recommend the dealership and Chuck to friends and family interested in purchasing a vehicle. My positive experience with Chuck has also been followed with excellent customer service provided by Ray Catena's service team of Randi W. and her co-workers.

John Wolkin was very sweet, patient & kind in helping us find the car we wanted at the right price. A true sweetheart of a person with a sincere demeanor and smile. Everyone we spoke to beforehand spoke highly of them and was very pleased with their own experience or knew of someone else who felt the same. Repeat customers and word of mouth mean a lot. Ray Catena is the only dealership we had planned on going to and we are very happy we did. Now I can also say I'm one of those people proud of Ray Catena on my license plate. When you see as many on the road as I have, you know they have to be good!! I'm still smiling!

Dealership is by far better than any other I have purchased or leased from over the years. Besides it being a nice comfortable place, they had all of the cars in there line available which has not been the case at many of the dealers I visited to look for my new vehicle. Everyone was nice and I didn't feel under any pressure to just hangout and browse. When it came time to do the deal Deshone was very knowlegable and pleasant and we quickly got the deal done and for the first time (leasing no fewer than 8 luxury cars over the years) I felt like I got a great deal with no upsale at the end. Priceless!

My family's experience with Melissa was beautiful. She was wonderful to work with and my car buying experience was the best I have had. Her explanations of my options including the color that I wanted was great. Her help in finding the appropriate financing was seamless. The buying experience was straight forward without any haggling. My family and I had a great and friendly experience with Melissa. I will definitely recommend Melissa to my friends and acquintances looking to buy Mercedes to come to Melissa at Ray Catena. I cannot say enough about Melissa!!!!!Thank you Melissa for a great car buying experience. Kwame Sintim-Damoa & Family.

Allyson Gutman was simply a pleasure to work with. She is friendly and knowledgable and was incredably cooperative and responsive to my numerous phone calls requesting information on several vehicles after our first meeting. She took the time to explore all of the options available to satisfy my desire to replace my existing convertible and in the end, when I told her what it would take to get me to buy the CLK 350 I had been looking at, she came back not with the compromise terms that I expected and had decided to accept, but with approval for the deal I had asked for. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a Mercedes at Ray Catena in Edison.

Customer service was really bad, they treated my not like a customer, but like a person who just goes their to waste everyone's time, with out even speaking to me. I felt as if they were profiling me just because I wasn't in a suit and tie. Once I finally spoke to someone they gave me the highest price they could on the car i was looking at to make it almost impossible to for me to purchase, then once they asked what type of car i was trading in I showed them my 2010 Lexus LX570 in which is shows me a value of $68,000 in excellent condition on KellyBlueBook.com which mine is in, they offered me only $42,000 as to almost want to insult me. In my personal experience i have never had a worst one than in this dealership. I do not recommend this dealer to anyone who is looking to purchase another vehicle for either private use, or for their small business/company. They do not treat all of their customers equally, and almost have this environment where if you are anything lower than higher class they will not treat you with the dignity and respect that you deserve. I am really disappointed with the way that they treated me, and cannot say that I will be returning to this dealership under any circumstance. Their are many other dealerships that I have had a much better experience with, and that me being a business owner can refer some of my customers to, and unfortunately this is not one of them.

In our opinion Ray Catena Mercedes of Edison, NJ offers not only excellence and what is undoubtedly the height of professionalism, but an incredible buying experience. This incredibly positive experience is perpetuated through ownership as you become acquainted with their outstanding service staff. We're sure Ray Catena's mission is to make you feel like a welcomed member of their family. My wife and I surely do. We are repeat customers and have just purchased a 2012 model from Ray Catena. Our salesman was/is Greg Giordano. My wife and I have never encountered such a knowledgeable and personable individual in this capacity. He made the buying experience as thrilling as the thought of owning another one of these incredibly engineered machines. There was no haggling or bartering back and forth. We came in the door knowing what we wanted and he surely delivered on professionalism, knowledge, and price. We could not be happier nor can we ever say enough good things about Greg. We also need to mention another reason why we came back to Ray Catena. Their service center. To us this is an extremely important part of where we buy and of ownership. Ray Catena's service center is run by the best of the best, whether it is Linda who will greet you upon arrival or one of their friendly staff behind the counter. Then theres Glen Gaito who is the service manager. Glen has and continues to offer excellence in service that even for someone like me who at times is hard to please wins hands down all the time! I really do wonder how he does it and want to say once again, 'Thank you Glen'. In addition there is one special service advisor we would like to mention. His name is Adam McCuen. Adam just exemplifies once again the excellence that this organization continues to offer and what it is all about!If you are searching for an extremely positive and rewarding Mercedes buyings and ownership experience we would implore anyone to pay a visit to Ray Catena Mercedes of Edison. Make sure to ask for Greg Giordano in sales and Adam McCuen in service(hope we dont overload either one of you!!)These are a few of the professionals at Ray Catena we deal with on a continual basis. However, we are sure you will have the same experience we have had over the years, no matter who you deal with at this TOP OF THE TOP WORLD CLASS ORGANIZATION!WELL DONE RAY CATENA!!

I had internet contact with sale representative Deshone for a long time and was timely informed and followed with him. The experience when I decided to walk in the dealship last week was very pleased. The process of the visit including very nice service site and variety of choices are impressive. No pressure but trying to meet my need turns the visit into a purchasing!

Very coordial employees - as expected for a Mecedes dealer. One of the best car buying experience I've had in the past 20 years. This car dealer was very smart to direct me to a female representative once the the first representative (male) understood that I was buying the car, not my husband. Melissa was understanding, friendly and not pushy. There was very litttle haggling. I new what I wanted and she worked to meet my expectations. She spoke to me, looked at me and dealt with me since it was clear that I was buying the car (although my husband accompanied me for moral support). This is the first time I felt that I was treated with respect in a car dealer and the experience was actually pleasant.

For my first Mercedes experience, I was amazed how different it was from other car purchases. Allyson Gutman was especially knowledgable about Mercedes and was most thorough throughout the process. She spent a good amount of time on a Saturday with my wife and I and never gave any request or question a second thought. Everyone I dealt with during the purchase and especially during the explanation of the car features was amazing. I would definitely recommend Ray Catena Mercedes of Edison and especially Allyson! The process was painless and enjoyable. She followed up the next day to see how I liked the car and if I had any questions.... CUSTOMER SERVICE - How unusual today! Thanks Ray Catena for a great place to do business.

I would like to tell you that I was in the process of buying a Mercedes from a dealership in Little Silver and I decided to go to Ray Catena on a Saturday afternoon just to check out the vehicles to see if any interested me. When i walked in I was greeted with smiles and a lot of energy from the Salesmen at the door. I was very impressed with the employee's you have working for you. Everyone was upbeat and happy. Very different from the other dealership. Also my salesman Ravi Mallela was very professional and informative. I was more than happy to purchase my vehicle from Ray Catena it was a wonderful experience and i would recommend Ravi Mallela to anyone. Thank you...

I had a great experience at Ray Catena Mercedes. The overall staff was extremely professional and courteous. I had the opportunity to work with one of the newest members of the team, John Wolklin. I was very impressed with his knowledge of the Mercedes brands and their vehicles in such a short time. This is a testiment to Ray Catena's commitment to client service. If you are in the market for a Mercedes Benz, I would head over to Ray Catena and ask for John Wolklin.

I couldn't be happier with my new 2012 Mercedes-Benz ML350 -- and couldn't be more pleased with my experience with Ray Catena MB -- and especially my sales representative, Derrick Fox. This is my first MB and I was very excited about the prospect of making the ML my own. However, after an EXTREMELY disappointing experience with one local MB dealer, I contacted two others. However, once again -- actually twice again -- I was shocked and dismayed by a lack of service, responsiveness and, frankly, even remote interest in "making the sale." I was just about completely DONE with the entire MB brand -- until I found Derreck. He was a true PROFESSIONAL, who was knowledgeable, energic, highly responsive, SO PLEASANT (I actually looked FORWARD to his calls!) and so easy to deal with. He respected me as a potential customer and made me feel -- right from our first conversation on the phone -- that my business was valued. For the first time in my MB experience, I felt like I had someone on MY team, who truly wanted me to join the MB family. From start to finish - thanks to Derrick -- the process wasn't just painless, it was actually enjoyable. By truly focusing on the customer, Derrick brought the smile back to the sale -- (it really should be fun!) -- and in my opinion, he saved the Mercedes Benz brand, at least for this family. Just days before I met Derrick, I was ready to go to a competitor product. But now, thanks to Derrick -- and really, the entire staff at Ray Catena MB -- I've got the keys to the exact ML350 I was hoping for -- and it's truly a wonderful vehicle. Service definitely can make a sale -- and in this case, it saved the sale. Now I'm the one with the smile on my face everyday when I hit that keyless go and hit the road in my new Capri Blue ML -- and I feel good about giving the sale to RC and Derrick Fox. Thank you!

Every one was very pleasant. The big plus was I did not have to get involved in a negotiation war about pricing. The lease was very smoothe and Eli Sasson made it HASSLE FREE. I would definitely return when my lease is up and try to lease agasin from Eli Sasson at Ray Catena.

The best car buying experience I have ever had. Allyson Gutman is terrific. She made the whole experience a pleasure. She actually brought a car that matched our requirements to our home for my wife to test drive. When we reached an agreement on the lease of our new GLK, she offered to deliver the car! We opted to go to the dealership to finalize the deal and pick up the car. I am glad we did since we were able to meet the GM and see how completely dedicated to an excellent customer experience everyone at the dealership is. There was no pass off to a financial rep to complete the deal. Allyson handled every piece of the transaction. She arranged for a gentleman to go over all the features of our new car with us. We never felt rushed. I've been buying Mercedes Benz cars for 20 years now and my last 3 have been through Allyson. She is honest, sincere and dedicated to helping the customer get the car they want at a reasonable price minus all the pressure and games other dealers play. She also pointed out that Service would pick up our car and leave a loaner car anytime we needed the car serviced. Why would I ever go anywhere else? She made us feel valued.

Melissa Lee, who engagingly worked with me was easy and fun to work with. She was very professional and did a phenomenal job in servicing me with my new car. I can't wait to visit again, the staff and the atmosphere there are fitting to the goodness of a Mercedes Benz.

My boyfriend and I were looking for our second car and we looked at BMW and Benz. We were interested in the BMW 335 and the new Benz 350. We both have purchased cars from Ray Catena before and we were very familiar with thier excellent customer service. Leon who was our sales associate was extremely friendly and professional. He let us know the car we were interested in was a special order and that it would take a few months to get it. He went over all the options in extreme detail and told us his professeional opinion. We went ahead and ordered the car, leaving a deposit but also went and looked at the BMW. We went to Open Road in Edison and we had a completely different experience. Not only was that dealership unprofessional they were completely rude. They made us feel like we were nothing and they didn't need our business. After that experience we knew we had to go with Ray Catena. Their professionalism and courtesy was impecable. Leon gave us updates on our car and became more like a friend then a sales associate. I would recommend Ray Catena to anyone looking for a car. Not only did they beat other dealerships numbers their service was above and beyond.

The salesperson, Deshone Drummond made our purchasing a new Mercedes-Benz a wonderful experience. Over the years, my wife and I have purchased several Mercedes automobiles. Deshone far exceeded our expectations. He listened to what we had to say and was able to provide us with several alternatives. In the end, we felt at ease and unpressured to make a decision. We would definitely revisit this dealership knowing that Deshone would be able to assist us in our needs.

When I entered the dealership I really thought I was just going to test drive a comparable car and then go buy an Audi or BMW at another dealership. Deshone Drummond, my sales consultant, took the time to learn about my needs and wants more than the other dealers in the area. He offered several solutions and was patient and never pushy while I explored different options and drove different models. Deshone was a pleasure to negotiate with and I am happy with the price we agreed upon. I would highly recommend Ray Catena Mercedes Benz and Deshone Drummond, they are outstanding!

I have been dealing with Ray Catena for 10years. Scott has been my sales rep in all that time. I have gotten 5 new M/B's from Scott and have always had nothing but the best of experiences in all these dealing. Scott is very friendly and professional. He stays in contact throught out the year and will call from time to time just to check on his customers satisfaction. I can not say enough about the great intreactions I've had in all my dealings with Scott.As a dealership, Ray Catena is by far the best I have ever dealt with. From point of sale all the way through serviceing the product they sell, they are the best.I continue to go back to Ray Catena and my daughter has gotten her Lexus at Ray Catena Lexus because of the way she has seen Ray Catena treat his customers.

Today was my very first dealership service experience. I am extremely sad to have to say it was very disappointing. Let me first start out by saying that Ray Catena other staff are very accommodating and treated me very well. There was a women who was making sure all Ray Catena, service customers were getting coffee, something to drink or eat. She (i wish i knew her name) did a fantastic job at making sure service customers in waiting were happy. Ray Catena, service area is awesome, free WiFi, plenty of food and drinks. Now what ruined my service experience. Glen Gaito who is the service manager, the top dog treated me more like a dog then a person. Here is my story. I brought in today my brand new 2012 C300 purchased from Ray Catena less then 2 months ago, with 1,500 miles on it. The reason I brought my car in for service was because I had a blow out on my left front tire. I did not hit anything, nor did anything hit me. The road side Mercedes Benz person from Contemporary that came out to help me the night this happened told me it looks like a defective tire. There was no damage to the rim or any bubbles in the tire. The tire had blown out along the beaded seam right above the rim. When I explained this to Mr. Glen Gaito he only really cared if I purchased a $700 Mercedes Benz Tire Protection Plan. I explained to Mr. Glen Gaito that I did not and it really should not make a difference to fixing this problem for me. Mr. Gaito told me but he could only as a one time courtesy give me 50% off the tire he sells very marked up for $300. And told me it would cost me $150. When I told Mr. Gaito he was not doing anything for me, charging me $150 for a tire that I already got a price on at Costco in Marlboro NJ for $190.99 and $15 to put it on my car. Costco in Marlboro sells and has in stock the very same exact tire. Mr. Gaito also told me that Costco does not sell the same tire. Well Mr. Gaito you are completely incorrect. I even visited Costco after I left your service place today and viably saw the same exact model # tire word for word. I also told Mr. Gaito that I already called Michelin tire company and opened up a case with their warranty dept. Mr. Gaito was extremely rude to me told me to go then get my new tire at Costco and said he will put my blown out tire back in my vehicle's trunk and send me on my way. WOW. This is Ray Catena service manager. Wow what does my service future look like. Mr. Gaito must be a close Ray Catena family member for him to treat a customer this way and get away with it. I am sure I am not the first. But maybe the first with a big mouth. So I told Mr. Gaito that I want him to take pictures of my blown out tire and send it to Michelin so they can make a call on it being defective. I also informed Mr. Gaito that I got in the mail yesterday my 10 page dealership survey and I will be sure to comment on my service experience today that has so far been not so fine and dandy. My service expectations have been hardly met. Rude service manager, that should have taken better care of a new and first time service customer in his shop. I was not asking him to replace my car, just replace a defective tire. Mr. Gaito, came back at me with why because you are not getting something for free. You are going to hold a dealership survey over my head. I said to Mr. Gaito no because you are treating me very poorly and should have just put a new tire on my less then two month old car and sent me on my way. Case closed. While Mr Gaito was playing in his very huge office, I contacted Michelin tire company and explained what was going on at Ray Catena Mercedes Benz of Edison. The representative from Michelin told me to put Mr. Gaito on the phone and they will handle this problem for me. Michelin Tire Co. obviously knows the proper way to treat a customer and tole Mr. Gaito they will pay for my tire. Mr. Gaito has obviously never handled any tire warranty problems from seeing what happened next. He had no knowledge of how Michelin was going to pay for this tire or the form that needs to be sent to them for payment. He called someone from the parts department while putting Michelin on a long hold. Mr. Gaito aren't you the service manager? People are suppose to call you for help. Mr. Gaito you are the service manager. You obviously have not been trained well. I hope your married to one of Ray Catana daughters or something because you are horrible at doing your job. Mr. Gaito also ripped up my $25 off coupon voucher that I was given by the road side service person. Even though I did not need to use it, since Michelin was picking up the tab, it was my property and you did not have a right to rip it up. You should have properly given it back to me. It was good and valid for 30 days. Now to end this story the Michelin phone call was ended at 10:43am. Mr. Gaito should have had the new tire put on my vehicle and sent me on my way. I did not get out of this dealership until 12:15. The reason being is Mr. Gaito was more concerned with processing the paperwork to Michelin then getting his customer out the door and on his way. When Mr. Gaito finally came out with my paperwork, I asked why I waited another 1hr and 30min to put a tire on my car. What took so long? Mr. Gaito told me he was waiting to get the paperwork processed by Michelin. Mr. Gaito you could have spent the whole day in your huge office playing with the Michelin paperwork. I should have been your first priority. Take care of me your customer and worry about the Michelin paperwork later. Wow, this is the worst service manager I have ever met. Chip on his shoulder and told me he is the top dog and no one else can override him. Well guess what Mr. Gaito, Michelin did override you because they know the proper way to treat a customer. Looks like I might have given the wrong dealership my business. Well I hope my review at least is read by others making a decision in buying a new vehicle from Ray Catena in Edison. Sales is just one part of buying a car. IF you are going to be treated poorly in service then your better off giving your business somewhere else.

My father and I purchased a 08 CLK350 cab from Brian King over the summer. Great deal on the car which was in excellent condition. NO HAGGLE pricing, we got the best price on the car in a few minutes without having to haggle and walk out. Brian goes out of his way to make sure you are satisfied with the car even after money changes hands and you leave with the car. I have since then spoken to Brian quite a few times and it feels like you are speaking to an old friend rather than someone you purchase a car from. Genuinely nice, friendly guy and the rest of the dealership is the same exact way ! I would and have recommended Brian and this dealership to family and friends

Ray Catena's Mercedes luxury cars with a heart!Prior to joining Mercedes, Deshone Drummond (my sales representative) worked with non-luxury cars for six years. I believe he has finally arrived! Deshone knows the struggles of the working individual and is willing to help anyone with a realistic budget drive a dream car. I also would like to extend my highest recommendations to Sales Manager Leigh Farrell who managed to pull off what seemed to be an impossible feat with utmost Courtesy and sincere smile. Of note, Ray Catena is a true representation of the surrounding community. It is truly diverse at all levels including sales representatives and management (hopefully it is also diverse on the executive level). You will be assured to connect with a sales representative that shares your background and unique life style. Happy Mercedes Shopping!

why go anyplace else. from the greeting from lee as you enter,it just makes you feel like you are family. chuck luciano is the best. he calls often, not only for sales but to see how we are.could not think of going to anybody else. once you try ray catena,you are coming back.just like the lays potato chip commercial.bet you can't buy one.

This is I believe my sixth car purchased from Ray Catena. I have been dealing with the Catena dealership since the 90's. The quality of a product is an important factor in the overall success of a salesman,I understand that. But it is the undefined tangibles that actually sell the product. From the very beginning of my relationship with Scott,he made me feel secure, relaxed and satisfied,that this sale was right for me. I remember the first time I came into the dealership the constant feeling of trepidation was pervasive. The weight of spending too much money was always hanging over my head, as in a Hitchcock film , the man on the run. Scott changed all that, he made me feel I belonged there, and more importantly that I was making the right decision, financially and emotionally. Scott's calm demeamor guided me through every step of the way. His strong business sense and knowledge of finance,even more important now in this fragile economy, were very strong selling features that really convinced me that a Mecedes was in my future,again. Scott was always there for me in every step of the decision making process, from the type of car that was right for me, to the color, to the packages I eventually chose, Scott's understanding and knowledge were there. I know I can speak for my wife who loves Scott even more than I do when I say I had a feeling of sadness as I was driving away in my new suv,knowing I won't see Scott for at least another 2-3 years, when I lease another vehicle.

She is a very nice person. She called me to let me know that the dealership was short of service associates on that saturday, november 122011. So she asked if i would consider coming back on weekdays for my service and I will get a loaner car.i told her I would call her back and let her know. Beforre I returned her phone call, she called me back and said it was ok to come on saturday as it was primarily planned! That is good customer service. Thanks michelle.

Everyone at the dealership was knowledgeable , helpful and friendly. They acted extremely professionally and they were eager to make sureWe were satisfied with the service provided. The follow up we received after our first visit was not pushy but informative. It left us feeling comfortable and secure in our choice to lease a new vechicle.

If every car dealer acted in the same manor thatChuck Luciano acts, Car dealers would have great reputations.This is the 5th Mercedes Benz I've bought.All from Chuck Luciano.There are dealers closer to my home.There are dealers who are friends of mine.none of that matters. I will only buy from Chuck.Honest, low key, calm and truthful.no one is better Neil Lasher

Called to make an appointment for an "A service" for my S600. I asked if there were loaners available and was informed that since I did not purchase my vehicle there I could not retain a loaner. I went so far as to inform the male receptionist that I was told upon purchase of my $200k vehicle that I could get a loaner from any Mercedes Benz dealership anywhere, he rudely retorted, 'I didn't here that.' I called up the next closest service center whom welcomed me warmly and before I could even inquire, informed that a loaner will be waiting upon my arrival. I'm not even calling Ray Catena back to cancel.

This is my 5th Mercedes Benz I have leased from Ray Catena of Edison and the 2nd from Greg Giordano. Each time I got a car from them they were professional, courteous, and knew all their facts. They don't waste the customer's time and make sure that you leave happy with the price you want and the car you want. Their service center is also much better than any of the dealerships nearby.

I have been with Ray Catena for almost 3 1/2 years now, and I have had a great experience all around. Chuck Luciano was my salesman through recommendation. As soon as I walked in the door and asked for Chuck, he was ready and waiting for my arrival. The keys and paperwork was on the table in front of me. Over the phone, Chuck was patient and thorough. It is why we chose to deal with him. He was no nonsense and true to his word. I love my car and the process at Ray Catena was a pleasure. I also have to mention that Paula (secretary) was tireless in her efforts to help me. She is also a reason why I stayed with Ray Catena. Paula surely deserves some credit for this sale. I recommend using Chuck Luciano from Ray Catena as your salesman. He was a pleasure to do business with.

This dealership is very responsive to customer needs and achieves a well-blended approach to closing the deal. The salesperson, Derrick Fox, was very amicable, easy to work with, and navigated the best interest of customer and dealership. He helped to shepherd the sale through the process and maintained a happy client (I've purchased several Mercedes Benz and my last 2 purchases were from Derrick). As it relates to sales, I would recommend Derrick and this particular dealership.

Gregory Giordano was extremely professional and knowledgeable about the autos for sale. I had no problem eliminating the cars I did not like and choosing the one I did like. He is a very bright guy and I feel he more than complements the Ray Catena Benz reputation. I wish car salesmen were more like him.

I have previously leased before with Ray Catena. Once again I am back and dealing with Derrick Fox. I feel very comfortable and confident with him. The dealership speaks for itself!! The people are always smiling,very friendly and will go out of their way to make you happy. More ownwers should run their businesses like Ray Catena.

Allyson was extremely friendly and made my experience of buying a new 2012 Mercedes E-350 easy and painless. She knew I was interested in buying the 2012 model and kept me up to date along the way as to when it arrived at the dealership for a test drive.

Timothy Antoniszyn, is without a doubt one of the nicest, honest, and just a all around nice guy. I was looking to lease a new vehicle since Feb. 2011 when I returned my Leased Cadillac CTS. I would consider myself being a smart shopper and someone with experience in leasing vehicles. I visited about 50 dealerships while I searched for my new vehicle to lease. I look at Infiniti, Cadillac, Lexus, BMW, Audi, Mercedes, Nissan, Hyundai and even Kia. I actually walked out of an Infiniti deal back in Feb. 2011 because of the way the sales person spoke to my children and sales manager was too pushy in signing paperwork and running my credit card. I have seen in my lifetime all the games and lies and pushy sale men and managers. I was given numbers over the phone at some of these places and when I went to get theses deals the numbers drastically changed. I was losing hope in leasing my new vehicle, until Oct. 2011 when I met Tim from Ray Catena Mercedes Benz of Edison. I first spoke with Tim over the phone. I told Tim what vehicle I was interested in leasing and what numbers I was given from three other Mercedes dealerships. Tim located and pulled from the docks the exact 2012 C300 4Matic Sports Seden, in the color and with all the features I wanted. He actually had my new vehicle trailered in, in less then a weeks time. Tim beat, every deal I was offered from other local Mercedes dealerships. But it meant more to me then just getting good numbers. Tim, handeled my whole leasing deal without having to bring in other mangers or people to get me the deal I wanted. I am sure Tim had to get his managers approval. But I did all my business with Tim directly. Remember my car was not even in inventory at Ray Catena Mercedes Benz of Edison. Tim did not make me sign any paperwork or even take a deposit from me. Most dealerships are so pushy. The want you to sign paperwork and want to get your credit card as fast as they can. Tim was a total gentleman and someone that told me when I pickup my car I can sign the paperwork and leave my deposit. Wow, what a difference from dealing with the other 90% of dealerships. Tim treated my family with respect. Got my kids MBENZ Hats, and through in some other goodies for my kids and I. He even made sure I took their MBENZ Services Plan, at no cost to me, and included it in my deal. Tim honered everything he said he would do for me and never reneged on anything. Tim explained everything to me in detail and went over any questions I had about my vehicle with expertise. I have the upmost respect for Tim and just about every employee I met there. Everyone is so nice and helpful. I can see why Ray Catena has had such a succesful business for so many years. You are always greated in a friendly manner when you enter the dealership. When my vehicle was picked up it was in well prepped conditon. The delivery specialist Mr. Don Dorr went thoughly through my new vehicle with me and showed me how everything worked. I even got a chance today to visit Ray Catena service and was very impressed. I spoke to a service tech about my vehicle. All my questions were answered with expertise and without being rushed. Being a skeptical customer I have to say that my whole experience at Ray Catena Mercedes Benz of Edison was absoultly wonderful. I am happy and proud to have become a new member of the Ray Catena family. Thank you very much for everything and providing me with outstanding sales service. John M.

I had a wonderful experience at Ray Catena Mercedes in Edison. The staff was friendly, they kept the buying process easy and their pricing is more competative than other luxury-brand-dealers in the area. I highly recommend shopping at Ray Catena and working with its professional staff and management team.

In todays hectic environment, we often forget to thank people for a job well done, or complement someone when we receive exceptional service or attention. We often dont forget to complain when we dont get what we expected to. My wife and I had the opportunity to lease a Mercedes from your dealership back in December of 2008, dealing with Mr. Ken Giordano. He made the experience a pleasant one. Coming out of several BMWs my wife was apprehensive about the vehicle, but warmed up to it over time. Fast forward to today. I received a call about one month ago, from Greg Giordano, explaining the programs that were available to us, and he stated if we were interested, to let him know. No pressure, not hard sales pitch. We came in to look at a new vehicle but my wife had her mind made up that she was going to get a new BMW. Throughout the conversations Greg did not pressure us into a decision, in fact he encouraged us to compare what your dealership had to offer and he was confident that we would return. He was right. Once we decided, he made the experience easy, with most of the paperwork being completed via email. He is a professional, and adds credibility to the dealership.Upon delivery, he was again, supportive and knowledgeable, explaining the lease return process and working with the delivery team to explain the functions of the new car to my wife and I.In todays environment, with the proliferation of information on pricing and reviews, many would say that where you buy the car doesnt matter. Based on my experience with your dealership, I can say they are wrong. It is not always about price. Service and integrity are still something we should recognize.

My husband inquired online about a car and got a response back right away. We then went to the dealer and met with Derrick H. Fox 3rd who was great. We have been looking for a car and went to a few different places but when we came to this dealer and met with Derrick the experience was diffrent. From the moment we met him it was a very calm and easy process of choosing the car and negotiating a deal. Other dealers made us feel very stressed and uneasy about leasing a new car. Derrick knew all the answers to our questions and was very nice and also had the BEST laugh ever. The rest of the staff was also very nice and always asking if we needed anything cofee, water etc. When we when outside to get into the car the other members of the staff made it a point to come outside (in the rain) and say congratulations.

Today I purchased my first Mercedes and I say if it wasn't for the outstanding and amazing job and quality of service that I received at Ray Catena Edison I would have never wanted to purchase my car today. Doug and Bob went above and beyond what anyone other dealership did. The quality and the overall knowledge not just about Mercedes but the car industry as a whole was very impressive and I wold deal with anyone or any other dealership going forward. I was first going to purchase a BMW but after visiting BMW I had to what Benz was offering and thanks to the group at Ray Catena I am purchased the car that I wasn't my first choice but will be the only car I go with going forward. Again thank you Doug and Bob for a great job and running a dealership. I shall be referring you guys to everyone going forward.regardscraig

From the moment we walked in the door, without an appointment, to look at the ML350, we were happy with the way we were greeted, assigned a consultant and assisted with our many questions. We had not made up our minds since we were still going to look at an Audi. We made an appointment for the next day to talk some more. After looking at the Audi, we decided on the Mercedes. We arrived the next day for our appointment and our sales consultant was still with another couple so he asked Allyson to continue with us so we were not kept waiting. She was wonderful and we negotiated our deal. We felt the price was fair to both parties. Deshone stopped by to check up on us when he had a break with the other people. They worked as a team to provide us with excellent service and attention. We picked up the car a week later and look forward to a good relationship with both of them and the dealership.

Allyson worked with us very diligently to help out with a complex transaction requiring a third party to ensure that we get the best price. The process went flawlessly. She was even worried that she had to call me often for copies of documents, but it was necessary in order for me to spend less than 30 minutes picking up the car in the evening after work. She's a great asset to the Ray Catena team.

Although I live out of state, I by-passed several local dealerships to go to Ray Catena-Edison because of the overwhelmingly high number of positive reviews. After this experience, I can truly say that they are deserving of all of the accolades. Within five minutes of meeting my Sales & Leasing representative, Derrick Fox, it was clear that I made the right choice. In addition to demonstrating a high level of professionalism, Derrick was extremely friendly and outgoing which immediately set me at ease in a situation that could have otherwise been intimidating for a "first time" MB buyer like me.Although I "thought" I had a clear idea of what I wanted after significant internet research, Derrick listened intently, asked the right questions and ultimately pointed me towards several alternatives that better suited my needs. I appreciated the level of patience Derrick exhibited as I repeatedly revised my "wish list" or asked that he go over lease vs buy options "just one more time". Without hesitation, Derrick explained my options in detail to ensure I was comfortable with the transaction.I walked away from this experience excited, confident and comfortable that I made the right choice due to the expert guidance of an exceptional Sales & Leasing Consultant. Derrick Fox is a top-notch professional and a pleasure to work with. He far exceeded my expectations and I highly recommend him without reservation.

Allyson Gutman is probably the best sales person that my wife and I had ever delt with. Over the years we have previously purchased 4 other Mercedes (one was leased), 4 Jaguars, 1 BMW, and numerous domestic vehicles, so when we say "best", we really mean it. From now on, we will continue doing business with Allyson and Ray Catena of Edison. They are extremely customer-oriented, caring, and very professional. It was a wonderful experience from start to finish. Allyson went above and beyond to provide us with the car we wanted for our budget and we our much appreciative.Also, their Service Department is the best that I've seen to date.

This is my 3rd purchase from Ray Catena and it is by far the best dealership I have ever visited. Their service center is amazing but their greatest asset is their people. I have worked with Derrick Fox on each of my deals and he is the reason I keep coming back. He is always professional, upbeat, pleasant, and greets you with the most inviting smile no matter how busy he is or how late you may be for your appointment. His genuine concern for his customers shines thru as he works with you to craft the deal that sends you home in your new Mercedes. He is knowledgeable and always remembers the smallest details that you may even forget. I consider him my dealer for life. Thanks Derrick, until next time. Saundra James

I worked with Derek Fox as my sales representative and Doug Wells as our sales manager. Very relaxing, no pressure sale, and explored all options to meet our needs. We looked at pre-owned, 2011 leftovers, and new 2012's. We took a test drive and stopped at their service complex. Very organized, clean, and customer friendly. Afterwards, we sat down together and narrowed our search to 3 cars. We crunched numbers on whether to purchase or lease. We ended up with a very comfortable lease on a vehicle that matched our needs. The staff took their time with us and showed us how to operate all options that come with the car.I would definetly recommend Ray Catena of Edison and ask for Derrick Fox. No pressure, friendly, and extremely knowledgable. Thanks Peter and Louise Ruffo

My wife and I just finished acquiring our first Mercedes, and consider ourselves fortunate to have worked with Ed. That being said, every employee of Ray Catena treated us as their 'own.'From a gregarious greeting to a patient and thorough trip through the experience which is Mercedes, Ed was careful to understand not only what we wanted, but what we needed. While addressing the ultimate goal in a professional manner, he never let the spirit of the event escape us; the happiness in purchasing such quality.With that, my wife and I thank him, and highly recommend your Mercedes purchase be through Edward Arbeit, and Ray Catena Mercedes Benz of Edison.

What an excellent dealership! This was my first Mercedes Benz, and I can see that not only are the vehicles superior to other brands, but the dealerships and salesmen are as well. I worked with Eli Sasson and he is a great guy. He went out of his way to make sure I got to and back from the dealership conveniently, didn't pressure me into anything I didn't want to do, and found a pricing plan for me that I simply could not refuse. I'm in love with my brand new C class. Eli will be my "car guy" from now on. Oh, and the showroom is amazing! I wish I could give more than 5 stars!

User Rating: 5 out of 5 stars by Jeff K 08/19/2011 I have been shopping a 2011, MB. ML350 to death. My wife and our 3yr old son have been to several dealerships and this dealership treated us like royalty. We went down there, 40 minutes away because they had a CPO. ML350, the one my wife wanted with the premium 2 package . It had only 10k miles on it. When we got there we saw that the hood looked a little to used for our taste (we are very anal about our vehicles). The General Manager, Doug Wells, offered to repaint it but we declined. While still checking out the vehicle Mr. Wells slipped away and returned with a MB die cast car for our tired and impatient son. It made my sons day and allowed us to keep shopping!! Then to make things even better our Sales Rep. Allyson Gutman got him ice cream!!!! Once we got him settled down the two of them did a search of the entire United States and found the car we wanted. They arranged to have it trucked to us from Colorado!!!!! Out of all of the dealerships we went to or spoke with NOT ONE OFFERED TO DO THIS!!! Not to mention they did this after their hours of operation had passed!! When we left the dealership and got in the car my wife turned to me and stated, that was one of the most pleasant buying experiences I ever had, THIS DEALER IS ACES!!!. Top quality, great experience!! I highly recommend!! Mr. Catena you run a class A , quality dealership!! Your employees really care.

I just leased my third Mercedes-Benz last Friday and I'd have to say that it was the most positive and pleasant experience I've had with respect to purchasing/leasing a car. Everyone at the dealership was pleasant, friendly and helpful. And to top it all, David Wong, the sales person who took care of my transaction, made the process so painless. Besides being so professional and knowledgeable about the product, and credible, he was meticulous in his explanations about the car, about the leasing process, and about the terms of the transaction itself. Car buying/leasing usually comes with some degree of stress, but last week's experience was definitely the most positive one for me. Thank you David! I have already recommended you to one of my friends who needs a car. He has your number :-)

No clue about the R-class,didn't seem like he wanted to make a sale. Also didn't seem sure of what he told me about the vehicle. I mean this wasn't rocket science it was a car (crossover). They didn't want to budge on price either. I wouldn't recommend, go somewhere else.

We were a little nervous when we went into a Mercedes Benz dealer. We have never owned an luxury car. When Deshone introduced himself to us with a beautiful smile and assuring attitude, we immediately felt at ease. Not only was he understanding about our trepidation but quickly assured us that he would work with us to give us the best deal according to what we could handle monetarily. He made us feel so comfortable that we only wanted to talk to him. This man is definitely a wonderful asset to Ray Catena Mercedes Benz of Edison. Kudos to Ray Catena for hiring this exceptional man.

I could not be more pleased with the experience I had at Ray Catena of Edison, and especially my salesman, Robert Alfonso. The experience was quick, efficient and painless. Walking onto a showroom floor that is filled with $100k + models can be intimidating when you are far from a $100k buyer. This was absolutely not the case at Ray Catena. I received the same superior quality customer service as any customer, and Robert worked closely with me to ensure that I was comfortable with the process and got the best deal for my car. I was beyond impressed and I highly recommend this dealership.

Robert is extremely professional! I called to inquire about a deal I found online. After only a short while, Robert found the model and color I was looking for at exactly the price I wanted. He held the car for me until I was able to come to the dealership. My experience with both him and the dealership in person was just as positive. He made everything very simple, no pressure and very fast.

I worked with, Danny Wong was professional, kind, easy to reach and well mannered.On top of that, he gave us the best price out of all 3 dealers we went to. Furthermore, when we had some questions about pricing, he listened to us intently and then went to speak to his boss. Furthermore, the receptionists at Edison Mercedes-Benz are all very kind and professional. As soon as we reach there, they ask if we want something to drink... It is a very high class atmosphere- and very enjoyable. Another thing about Danny was, he was very good at staying in touch, whether via e-mail or phone. If he missed a call or an e-mail, he would get back to me by the end of the day. This was my first experience buying my own car, and I couldn't have asked for a better dealer and of course a better salesman. Thanks again.-Akash

I have dealt with Ray Catena Jaguar in Oakhurst for the past 10 years with excellent results prior to visiting the Mercedes dealership in Edison. John LaViola found the exact car I wanted within 24 hours and I was behind the wheel shortly thereafter. Since that time, I have called with a few "self imposed" glitches and have been treated promptly with patience and kindness. I have decided that from this point, I will only buy cars from Ray Catena dealerships.

Danny understood what we wanted in a car and was very patient with us. From switching from a Suburban to a E350 it was a little difficult for me - test driving the car a few times with Danny's patients was wonderful. He was very professional, courteous and was not a 'pushy' salesman. Our overall was we purchased a used E350 and I love driving this car!!!

Great experience - Derek was a pleasure to deal with, very straight forward and made it simple. He even picked me up at my office to go to the dealership when i took delivery. Great delivery person too - he was also a pleasure to work with.

AS SOON AS I STEPPED FOT IN THE DOOR I FELT GOOD ABOUT THE DEALER. AFTER MEETING WITH ROBERT ALL I GOT TO SAY IS HE IS THE BEST SALESMAN YOU WILL EVER MEET. I BOUGHT PLENTY OF CARS IN MY LIFE AND NEVER BEEN TREATED LIKE I DID WHEN I WENT TO THIS DEALER. SALESMAN IS FRIENDLY AND KIND DID WHAT EVER HE COULD TO GET THE CAR I WANTED AND THE DEAL APPROVED. DIDNT HAVE TO DEAL WITH NO FINANCE GUY LIKE MOST DEALERS DO. IF YOUR THINKING OF BUYING A CAR HERE DO IT THERES NO NEED TO SHOP AROUND THEY WILL GIVE YOU A GOOD DEAL AND DELIVER THE CAR YOUR LOOKING FOR. THANKS FOR THE GREAT SERVICE RAY CATENA KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!

I had previously bought and serviced a Mercedes Benz at Ray Catena or years, so when I was interested in buying a new car I went to them and brought my 2004 Mercedes Benz E320 to them to trade in. The car has never been serviced anywhere else. I even bought new tires there. They went over the car with a fine tooth comb and came back to me with an insulting offer. They had a CarFax report that said the car had a front-end collision. It was absolutely wrong. In fact, with a few emails to CarFax, I cleared it all up. They had put information in incorrectly. First, a message to dealers -- CarFax is not the end all, be all. They make mistakes. Second, a message to Ray Catena Mercedes. You are going to trust CarFax over the word of a repeat Mercedes customer AND repeat Ray Catena customer? Jack Goldberg never followed up with even a phone call. I've never been to a dealer where they haven't followed up after a visit. I guess they don't need the business.Ray Catena -- I bought a BMW and couldn't be happier.

Danny Wong was professional and thorough during my visit. We were totally satisfied at the end of our experience even though this was not the exact model that we were ready to purchase. We drove away in a 2011 GL450 with an increase in our monthly payment. Mr. Wong was determined to get us into a newer vehicle and did everything possible to find the car that was closer to our specifications. After we closed the deal we called him few time for some assistance and he was always there ready to answer our questions. A week delay on the delivery due to the holiday.Thank you Danny!Fortunato and cathy Orlando

I knew exactly what I wanted before calling Ray Catena. I spoke to Eli Sasson who came highly recommended from my friends and family. He quoted me a price that beat the other prices I received from other dealerships. The dealership was very accommodating and as soon as the deal was done Eli delivered the car to my home. The only reason I didn't rate my overall experience great was because I was trading in a car before leasing my Mercedes and the price that Ray Catena gave me was slot lower than the car was worth and I was able to sell my car for about $2500 more the next day and I signed the lease on the new car that night.

Overall experience on a scale of 1 to 10 was an 11. Greg Giordano honestly catered to my every need. Never lost site of my goals, kept my best interest in mind throughout the whole process.

I am elated and thankful for his cooperation and thoughtfulness.Deborah E. Dixon

I have been to many dealers over the past couple of months and I can honestly say that this place was head & shoulders above the rest.I never believed that I would pull the trigger and make it happen in one trip, but I was wrong. These guys are straight shooters, we were extremely happy with our experience at Ray Catena.

Allyson Gutman is truly the most amazing sales person I've ever encountered. Honest, friendly, cordial and just a pure pleasure to work with not to mention her pricing blew the competition out of the water. DO yourself a favor and ask for her if you're in the market for a new Mercedes Benz. I just left there with my new E350 4matic & I could not be happier!

Melissa Lee is one of the best sales representatives I have dealt with. She was extremely knowledgeable, very accommodating, and super friendly. She created such a pleasant experience for us by making us feel special every step of the way. Melissa has a customer for life out if me! I would recommend her whole heartedly to anyone who is interested in leasing/buying a Mercedes-Benz.

Rave Reviews:Over the years, we have leased several cars from Ray Catena in Edison and have always worked with Derrick Fox, who is very professional as well as dependable and persevering. He has always helped to meet our needs in zeroing in on the right car.Clearly, Derrick is an asset to the Ray Catena Dealership sales department. We have been very pleased and satisfied with our car leasing experience(s) and highly recommend him as a sales and leasing representative.

I leased a new E350 on 6/27. Two weeks prior to that I went to the dealership to look around and thats when Chuck Luciano walked up to me and handed me his card and asked if I needed help. Knowing I wasn't there to buy that day he showed me a few cars that were in the price range I mentioned. A few days later I e-mailed him asking for some prices and he got back to me with two payments on two different cars attached with the vehicle sticker. On 6/27 went to Ray Catena of Edison and had by far the best experience ever buying a car! I negotiated a price I wanted to be at rather the price of the car and sure enough when it came down to signing the papers I started questioning the price of the car. It turns out I paid 6k less than the msrp and at no point was that ever mentioned. I thought that was pretty cool that Chuck gave me the car for 6k less and at no point he felt the need to bring that up. Looking forward to doing many more years of business! Thanks!

Theives! I had gotten my smart car from Ray Catena and was told at the time of purchase that service and maintence were included. I wanted about a year to take care of service on my Smart. Only to be told that service wasn't covered and that I owed 300+ for BASIC MAINTENCE. When we tried to speak with someone we were treated rudely and shruged off. The work itself was done well but it was not $300 worth of work. Plus it took all morning for them to even get to my car. Do not to business with Ray Catena. If you have to make sure you get all of their claims in writing and read before you sign ANYTHING they give you. They are a bunch of theives that will run you through to make a buck.

WHAT AN EXPERIENCE!If I was able to rate my Experience 1-10, it would be a "10"+2 for Beyond Accommodating!!!My wife and I are starting a family, so we need a bigger car. I stopped into Ray Catena, to browse some cars my wife & I were interested in purchasing. My Sales Rep. ELI SASSON was very knowledgeable and friendly, he answered all my questions with a SMILE, and DID NOT turn his back, or ignore me when I told him I wasn't ready to buy. The morning we were picking up our new car Eli Sasson was beyond accommodating. He himself Actually picked me up from my home in his personal car with a cup of Coffee waiting for me in the cup holder. The final transactions were quick and easy.THANK YOU ELI!!!ANYONE LOOKING FOR AN HONEST PERSON CALL ON ELI SASSON: 732-549-6600

Eli Sasson was a true professional and worked with us to pick out the perfect vehicle. He got us a sweet deal on a new Benz and we could not be happier. Good Job Ray Catena, and Thank you Mr. Sasson, you've made us a customer for life. We appreciate your assistance, and it was a pleasure doing business with you. We will be recommending friends, family, co-workers and everyone else to shop exclusively with you. Great Job :)

I would rate my overall experience with Ray Catena as excellent! My salesman, Greg Giordano took me for a test drive and he was SO pleasant and patient and did not rush me or pressure me whatsoever and answered all of my questions. I called the dealership and spoke with Dan Cottrell in Greg's absence. In less than 15 minutes we had a deal over the phone and I was scheduled to pickup my new car the very next day! Greg met me at the dealership and stayed after hours in order to accommodate my schedule. There were NO surprises or pressure to make any last minute decisions. The car was EXACTLY what I wanted and the paperwork reflected exactly what I wanted to spend. It was SO EASY and such a pleasure to do this deal! The salesman at Ray Catena are extremely professional and customer oriented and treat you with respect! I'm in love with my new car and even all my follow-up questions or issues were addressed immediately with such responsiveness and attentiveness to help. I would recommend this dealership in a heartbeat and I wouldnt buy a benz ANYWHERE else.

PLEASE READ BEFORE MAKING A TRANSACTION AT THIS DEALERSHIP!I would like to share my experience at Ray Catena in Edison, NJ. Here is the history:My father financed a Mercedes S550 from Ray Catena in Edison, NJ on June 11, 2011. It is relevant that I mention we purchased this car for over $100,000. On June 15 (Wednesday), the car wouldnt start and we called the dealership and they told us to call the Mercedes Roadside Assistance. After couple of hours, someone arrived at the residence and Jump-Started the car. He mentioned that it could be that the battery is bad or it could be that this particular car was at the dealership for months and wasnt started which could be reason for this. Then on Friday, June 17, the car stopped in the middle of the road either because of the battery problem or because my father drove the car through water and it was sucked in from exhaust pipes (there was heavy rain at that time). I would like to also mention here that hundreds of other cars did pass through the same street without stopping while my fathers car was shut down. We waited almost 4 hours for the Mercedes Roadside and they kept telling us on the phone that the tow truck is 10 minutes away. All this while, the cops are getting impatient and they called the local towing company to tow the truck, which they did. Within a week, we had three problems with the car (including this water problem). At this point, I cant help but think that we might have purchased a Lemon, not to mention the amount of money my father spent on this car. So, we are calling the dealership to cancel this deal but no success. Yes, they could probably fix the one or two problems the car might have, but in my mind after spending over $100,000 on a car, I just dont want to settle for band-aid fix, not to mention all of this happened within a week, who is to say the problems wont occur down the road due to all of this. On Saturday, we then arrive at the dealership and ask for the Sales Rep who we purchased the car from. He was apparently busy with a customer and was going to be a while. We then asked for the General Manager to talk to him about the situation and we wanted to cancel the deal. I have never met such an arrogant person and he is the general manager. This is the person who represents Ray Catena of Edison, NJ. Instead of comforting us about the situation, he told us, with his un-professional attitude, that come back on Monday. Might I remind that we had already wasted Friday night, half of our Saturday and now he is telling us to come back on Monday. Are these guys expecting us to take a day off from work and follow them around because we had already purchased the car and they already have the down payment so it is no longer their responsibility to server their customers. I cant emphasize enough that how un-professional this person, Douglas Wells, was. The negligence that my father and I experienced on Saturday was appalling. This person showed no respect whatsoever, we were talking to him and in the middle of the sentence he picks up his phone and starts talking on the phone. Furthermore, my father mentioned to him that, he was planning on taking the new car to Florida for his vacation. This is the response that we got from the GM: Rent a car, and maybe Mercedes will reimburse you. Are my expectation too high, when I thought that Ray Catena dealership should provide us with a courtesy car at the minimum, until the car is fixed? Later on that day, we drove to their service center to get some personal belongings out of the car. The service center couldnt locate our car. They called several other service centers and nobody had our car.This is just one of the many steps I plan on taking against Douglas Wells. I am going to expose this situation and the way it was handled by Ray Catena dealership. Moreover, I am planning on providing the same information on the dealership survey that I have yet to receive.

I must compliment my salesman, Mr. Gold, who is extremely knowledgeable about the car, very helpful and willing to spend as much time as needed with the customer in order to answer all of their questions.

Melissa Lee was an excellent sales person, very knowledgeable about the vehicles . Her attention to detail and assisting a customer to maxium is definitely a understatement about her. Prior to interacting with Melissa i had previously gone to another dealer in Englewood to inquire about the same car and that sales associate was not as helpful and attentive, a few of the features in the car i was asking for he brushed off or suggested what he though would be good in my vehicle not paying attention to what i wanted. With Melissa there were no ifs ands or buts. MELISSA IS GREAT !! She is elaborate and explains everything well. The process of financing my vehicle was easy and fast. I definitely felt comfortable interacting and having her as my Sales Representative .iI absolutely recommend this dealer and Sales Representative. She met all of my expectations and more.

We were determined to purchase and Audi model from Bell Audi and only came to Ray Catena Mercedes Benz dealership for comparision. There was NO comparison between the two. Mercedes Benz customer service was superb in professionalism and service.The price was better than the Audi dealership and offered more in packaging of the car.After searching at othere dealerships and making Mercedes Benz the last consideration, I find that I wasted my time at the other dealerships.Melissa Lee was attentive and accommodating to our needs. I was pleasantly surprised with offers in the car and financing that I never even considered.I highly recommend this dealership.

We were in the market for a pre-owned certified CLK350, and my husband saw one online and called. We were directed to the sales associate Tim Antoniszyn. From the start Tim was excellent. We called on a Wednesday and wanted to come the next day. It was Tim's day off but he came into meet with us which we thought was exceptional. He was very knowledgeable about the car and had done research on the Lexus that we wanted to trade-in. The CLK350 was very clean and presentable. Tim took us for a test drive and made sure that both my husband and I had the opportunity to drive the car. The price based on the CLK350 and the trade-in of the Lexus, we felt was fair though a little higher than we expected based on my husband's research on AutoTrader.com and KellyBlueBook.com. We have purchased two other pre-owned certified cars from Ray Catena dealerships and have been very satsfied with these cars and how we were treated by the dealerships. We felt that it was worth it to buy another pre-owned car from a Ray Catena dealership. When a Ray Catena dealership certifies a pre-owned car, it looks like new, and they make you feel like you are purchasing a new car. When we picked up the car on Saturday, Tim met with us and introduced us to Don Dorr who went over in detail all the features of the car. Don too was super. The Sales Manager Leigh Farrell made me feel like I was a member of her family. Tim is very professional and outstanding. And Ray Catena is the best for a pre-owned certified car. We definitely will recommend Tim Antoniszyn to friends and family.

I was extremely pleased with my experience at Ray Catena MB of Edison. Joseph Pellegrino, my sales associate, made this experience pleasurable and satisfying. His knowledge of the product was an invaluable asset. This instilled confidence in me knowing that I was dealing with a professional. I think we both walked away satisfied with the deal. He made sure that I was fully aware of how the care functioned and assured me that if I had any questions at any time, I was free to call him on his cell, whose number he provided. I would definitely recommend Joseph and Ray Catena to my friends and associates.

Ray Catena Mercedes-Benz is hands down the best dealership because of its sales individuals and management but one individual stands out in particular, Robert Alfonso. He is the the epitome of fabulous customer service. He attentive and thorough. I have just leased my second car with him and will definitely work with him again. There are no other Mercedes dealerships in the tri-state area that are tantamount Ray Catena. Customer service is the ultimate necessity in retail especially in the car business. Thank you Robert Alfonso and Ray Catena for another fabulous experience!!!

My family has been in the Ray Catena family for the last 12 months with two vehicles leased through salesman Robert Gold and now it was my turn. I was greeted at the front door by a very friendly women who offered us a beverage and walked us to Mr. Gold`s area. My first impression of the dealership was very positive. We met Mr. Gold who greeted us with a very friendly attituded and was willing to show us the entire showroom. He was willing to take the time to do this and at no time did we feel pressured and/or rushed. He spent alot of time discussing the vehicle we were considering and discuss all of the different packages the vehicle could have in it. Mr. Gold asked us if we would like to test drive a vehicle which we did. After the test drive, we discussed the different ways of either buying and/or leasing a vehicle. The next day Mr. Gold and I were able to reach a deal. A couple of days later, Mr. Gold called to see if I was satisified with vehicle. I am completely satisified with Mr. Gold and my vehicle.

Joe Pellegrino followed up with me numerous times to ensure I was completely satisfied. I will be a Ray Catena customer for many years to come, and I highly recomend Ray Catena Motors to anyone purchasing a Mercedes Benz.

One of the best experiences I had ever buying a car. Doug and Charles were tremendous in helping me acquire my new car . I would recommend them to my family and any one I come into contact looking to buy a new car from Mercedes. They were very knoweledgeable about Mercedes products and very experienced in explaining details about their product.

I have made a few purchases from other dealerships and have had not so great experiences. My purchase with Ray Catena Mecedes was sooo easy, painless and FAST!!! I had to pinch myself a few times to make certain I was awake and not dreaming at the ease and effortlessness of this company ability to find the car I wanted and deliver it. KUDOS TO THE TEAM & STAFF AT RAY CATENA MERCEDES BENZ!

Chuck Luciano is a pro who makes the best deals for Ray Catena's MB customers. We compared other cars, Porsche Panamera, with the MB S550, discussed when MB will re-make the S model sedans, discussed price points, - then the deal came apart! I wanted a Blue Capri MB S 550 4 Matic with certain options and packages. The car simply was not readily available, not at Ray Catena's dealership or any where else in the Northeast. After searching, a car was found at a great price. No deception, no tricky hidden charges. Just the truth. The service portion of the Catena dealership, makes ownership a great after-sales experience. Knowledgeable and trusting staff , who actually work with their customers and keep the MB cars humming. Chuck in sales, Linda at customer service, andThomas Hoover at service - worth the time at Ray Catena's.

On 4/8/11 I had the pleasure of leasing a mercedes ML350 from Ray Catena. My experience was overwhelming,from the moment I walked into the dealership. I was greeted with respect and friendship.From the time I sat down with Tim, he did everything within his power to accomodate my budget. The employee's took care of me as a whole. As a matter of fact, Mr.Catena was there himself and greeted me personally.He continuously sent his employee's over to ensure I was ok. This is my second time leasing from Ray Catena first with Infiniti and now with Mercedes and I'm extremely happy.I felt as if I was part of a family.

The gentlemen that helped be trough the process of buying my pre-owned Mercedes were wonderful.They made me feel comfortable, they did not pressure me and they know their product very well. They explained each and every feature of the car and showed me how to use them as well. I am extremely happy with my purchase and would highly recommend this dealership to others!

I have been with Ray Catena for 10 years, and in those years from sales which Mr. Giordano was key in continuing my love affair with Mercedes-Benz and in service Mr. Scoles who has always been a great asset for this dealership. I love their commitment to my needs and their professionalism.

This is my first Mercedes and what a pleasure it was to deal with Ray Catena MB and especially Robert Gold. From the time I walked into the dealership until the lease agreements were signed, I was treated like royalty. Robert Gold went above and beyond to ensure that I would be comfortable with my 2011 C300 4Matic Sport, the lease payments and color choice. Robert Gold was extremely easy to deal with, no pressure. Ray Catena MB and Robert Gold have a new friend for life. Nice job.

I have been leasing from Ray Catena for the last 7 years, although prior to 3-19-11 it was Lexus. I recently leased a 2011 Benz CLS 550 AMG from Ray Catena Mercedes in Edison and as usual, the experience was excellent. Robert Alfonso was professional,knowledgeable,courteous and friendly. Ray Catena apparently is a smart man who employs people who understand that customer service is very important. I cant imagine buying or leasing a car anywhere else. The difference in the experience, compared to the Acura dealer i dealt with prior to switching to Lexus and now Mercedes, both of which are Ray Catena dealerships, is just unbelievable. If you like being treated like royalty, Ray Catena is the place to go. If your going to lease or purchase a Mercedes, then I highly recommend asking for Mr. Alfonso. He has been in the business for years, and will make your experience a very pleasurable one. Mike N Staten Island NY

I have been leasing cars from Ray Catena for more than a decade. Catena has always treated me as a valued customer. My most recent experience was one of the best; Catena offered me a montly lease on a new Mercedes that was lower than what I was paying on my older Mercedes. Catena's sales representative, Bob Gold, worked the numbers to give me added features on my new car and still maintain a lower monthly lease price. He was knowledgable,thorough and a gentleman throughout our dealings. He made the experience a pleasurable one.

My experience at Ray Catena Mercedes was excellent. I dealt with sales representative Robert Alfonso, who was wonderful. His professionalism and knowledge of the proper vehicle for me was incredible. This is the first Mercedes I have owned, and he made the experience so comfortable. The level of trust and confidence I had with Mr. Alfonso is what made me want to do business at this dealership. I, along with my entire family, will be recommending this dealership, but more importantantly, we will direct them to see Mr. Alfonso. I have complete confidence that Mr. Alfonso will treat them as well as he treated me. Thank you.Regards,Antonio S. Grillo, Esq.

I came into the dealership already researching the car I wanted online. The overall experience was great. I scheduled a test drive about 5:30 PM. I arrived late and had to wait before meeting the Sales consultant. This dealership is very busy; howerver, they really take the time to make sure you are comfortable while you are waiting. Danny was a great sales associate. He made me feel comfortable with the purchase, even found a better financing deal than the one I found on my own! I would recommend anyone in the market for a Mercedes-Benz to visit Ray Catena in Edison. My next car purchase will probably be from the same Dealership.

From the warm greeting at the showroom entrance to the offering of coffee etc., I felt comfortable in the dealership. My saleswoman, Melissa directed her attention to what I was looking for, showing me the options available in the models I was interested in. After discussing the pricing and options I wanted, Melissa contacted me the following month with the perfect program for me. Finalizing the paperwork was seamless and the gentleman who tought me how to use the cars features was exceptional. Very happy with my choice.

We have purchased four (4) new Mercedes from Ray Catena of Edison over the years and I must say that it is by far the best auto dealership we have ever worked with. Ray Catena of Edison makes the process easy and relaxing from the time you enter the facility with their no pressure approach. However my sales professional, Derrick Fox, takes it to another level. He is a tremendous sales professional whose dynamic personality makes the difficult task of purchasing an automobile a very simple and painless one. He is patient, flexible, offers solutions and always willing to help with even the smallest of details. Derrick has displayed a willingness to always be proactive and that has garnered him a customer for life! Even after we have taken delivery of our automobiles, Derrick Fox always has time for us with the smallest of questions. The service Derrick Fox and the folks at Ray Catena of Edison provide are second to none and we highly recommend them for price, quality and service. Thanks Derrick for a job well done....AGAIN!

In my wildest dreams I did not think I could afford a Mercedes Benz. After looking at several other vehicles from different luxury manufacturers I decided to take a look at a Mercedes. As I entereded Ray Catena Mercedes Benz of Edison I was greeted by salesman Dan Cottrell. He was extremely cordial and offered assistance but we just wanted to look around. After falling in love with the ML350 and GL450. We wanted a test drive. Dan not being too far away but giving us plenty of breathing room was extremely willing to assist us. Dan was very knowledgeable and patient. After the test drive we sat with Dan to go over prices. He gave us many different options to try to fit into our budget. Dan never made us feel rushed. This was a no pressure sale and it was refreshing to deal with such a professional. After signing a deal. I left feeling very happy. Not only because I feel that we got an excellent deal but the class of service that was given to us made us feel very special. The Management of Ray Catena should be proud to have someone such as Dan Cottrell as an employee. After dealing with other luxury brand dealers I thought that it could not get any better but Wow was I wrong! Thank you Dan for such a great experience.

I am usually very leary when it comes to shopping for cars. Listening to the usual salesman 'shpeel', but to my surprise, Ray Catena opened my eyes a bit. I had the best experience, from the moment I walked in to the door, to the moment I drove my new truck off the lot. The entire staff is so friendly and upbeat, it was a pleasure dealing with them. My salesman, Timothy Antoniszyn, was extremely knowledgeable, and helpful...from the car seat adjustments to the Bluetooth set-up. He walked me through the vehicle, hood to trunk, explaining everything and answering any little question I may have had. I love my truck and can't wait to do business with them in the future.

I can't say enough about this place and my salesman Danny M. Wong. The most professional, knowledgeable, and courteous individual I had the pleasure of purchasing a vehicle from. He is an asset to the Mercedes-Benz brand. This place makes me feel like I am home, rather than at a car dealership. Can't wait till next time. Thank you Danny and your entire staff!

Greg was a very friendly and straight forward sales consultant. He didn't waste time playing games and got me as close to the best deal as possible. He was also able to do it as quick and while always keeping my interest (saving money) in mind. I didn't have a great experience three years back but meeting Greg this time changed my mind.

I love this dealership. Everyone is so friendly and cannot do enough for you the minute you walk through the door. The service department is A-1. If you wait for your car for your service there is free wi-fi, an array of complimentary food and drinks, pool table, etc. It is just a first class operation. My sales person, Tim Antoniszyn was very friendly and very professional and knows the cars he sells inside and out. It was a pleasure dealing with him and the entire staff at Ray Catena Mercedes-Benz. I would never think of going anywhere else to buy my cars.

It really helps when the person your dealing with cares about your wants, needs and time! The whole process was effortless even though the selection was endless! If your looking for the best of the best, I found the dealer and sales advisor that fits the bill! Great job Joe! I love my new Mercedes Benz!

Just felt i should leave this review to let people know about the excellent experience I had a Ray Catena Mercedes in Edison. This is a premiere dealership, everything you'd expect from a MB dealership and more. I purchased 2 cars from them in the last year and used thier service center as well all 3 time without a complaint.Great Service, Great Selection, and Great Prices.My advisor was Eli S and he was very accomodating and patient. Would use Ray Catena and Eli for my next car!

Have been buying my Mercedes Benz's from Brooklyn for many years. I was not very happy with the prices and service in Brooklyn. I was recomended by a friend to try Ray Catena Mercedes and was told to ask for Doug. Well turns out Doug is the GM at the Edison location. He was very friendly and helpful. He assigned a salesman named Eli to help me out. He treated me with courtesy and respect and answered all my needs very professionally. The were able to beat the lowest of 3 prices I had. They really made me feel like I was buying a Mercedes. They were even smart enough to suggest I buy a warranty for my wheels if I hit a pothole or anything that would damage my wheels. What a blessing it was that they suggested it. I had damaged my wheel and tire and to my happiness it was fully covered. Thank you Doug and Eli, and thank you Ray Catena for your excellent staff and services. I am a customer for life. Will recomend you to all.

I could never even think of being able to drive a Mercedes, but thanks to Eli's creativity I was able to get a payment that was just right for me. Thank you Ray Catena Mercedes Benz.The only place I will call from now on.

A very good and classy experience. It was the summer and the air conditioning wasn't working so well. While I sat at Ellie's desk, he ran around the office like a chicken without a head getting papers, corrdinating the car with the guys who bring it out, insurance stuff etc..the man was literally sweating to exhaustion. I was cool but the determination on his face and his willingness to please showed what a person and what Ray Catena asks of from a Mercedes Representative. Ellie never lost his cool even though I was asking many questions and the phone was ringing and the fax was spitting out papers. He remained calm and did those things in the order in which they needed to be handled. The price of the car was also very competitive. I know this because I can swap-a-lease the car now, after 10 months, for what I paid then and also make a few dollars. So all in all I want to Thanks Ellie S. and Ray Catena for an excellent job and will be returning for my next car.

I have never felt more at ease and relaxed buying a car and will continue with the service center when it is time for my new car to be serviced

This particular dealership is a mixed bag. I will explain further. Orginally came on President Day to browse and even purchase a GLK350. Worked with salesman Dan Contrell. Discussed a lease payment for vehicle. Would not budge on $30 off the monthly payment on a base model GLK350 they had on showroom floor. Even asked if there was any promotions/incentives for February. Disturbed by this, went home, went on Ray Catena Mercedes Benz website, saw there was a promotional lease on a GLK350 that was $55 less, with less down payment needed.Called up the dealership same day, spoke to another salesperson named ELI, who referred me to Anthony Garone. Spoke about the promotion for Feb advertised on dealer website, asked them if I came down Saturday, would this price change. Is this a bait and switch deal. Read the fine print on bottom of website. Turns out the car they are promoting has more options included into the lease. Came on Saturday, vehicle was already prepped, ready for delivery, just had to sign papers. No see saw back and forth deal. Delievered at the price as promised as promoted on dealership website. Very smooth transaction compared to the orginal salesperson.If I had gone with the orignal salesperson--Dan Contrell, I would have overpaid for a lease. I also cannot belive this salesperson did not promote the dealership website and say YES, we do have promotions and its at this price. He wanted me to pay more for the car than necessary to pad his wallet. To screw a potential customer out of deal when they know there is a promotion going on, that is advertised on their dealership website is quite disturbing and goes to show, the salespersons at Ray Catena, who you work with, makes your transaction a pleasant one or unpleasant oneAnthony Garone, who works there, was very professional, smooth in breaking down the fees associated with the lease, was flexibile and worked on trade in too. If I did not researched on Ray Catena website on their promotions, If I did not attempt to give the dealership a second chance, I would have gone to purchase elsewhere. But because they had their promotion listed on their dealer website. I wanted to see if they would hold up on their own end.The front desk staff are very friendly, if not overly hospitable in offering you something to drink, eat. Thumbs up to Mercedes Benz of Ray Catena for this small gesture. Feels like you have entered a luxury brand with people openly looking to cater your basic needs of thrist/hunger.Otherwise, buyer beware. The salesperson you deal with in this dealership, makes a huge difference in the way you feel about buying from Ray Catena.Ray Catena really needs to put a spycam on their salesman to see who really trying to get one over on the customer. Its not fair to Ray Catena reputation.

I went to the Edison location for service in February 2009.I requested that my passenger side rear fog light to be enabled.After the service I was told by the advisor, it could not be done that day.I know this can be done *via Mercedes SDS* quickly.I wanted this done so it can help prevent rear end collisions.They were done on all my other Mercedes Benz cars.A few weeks ago I got rear ended, I wish the rear fog lamp was enabled.I brought the car to Sovereign in Brooklyn for the repair, Because they have enabled the rear fog-light on another car.Upon the completion of the repair, I did request them to enable the fog light.This was done in a few minutes as I was waiting for the car.Best Regards,Makeuhighataol.com

The service department replaced the transmission of my 2003 C320 in 2005. The transmission is failing again. They did not follow the proper procedure since they did not replace the radiator as prescribed by the mercedes bulletin for that specific failure (glycol contamination). Obviously now they will not stand by their work and parts.

I bought my car at Ray Catena in NJ, The salesman there Frank Fahy, He sold me the car.The deal was considerable less than two others I had been quoted.Most of all, It was the easiest transaction I ever had.I have owned more cars than I can count with all my fingers and toes.But by far this was the most painless, And most pleasant experience I have ever had.I have been in a related auto businesses for 15 years, So I knew what to expect.As long as I can afford Mercedes Benz products, I will always go back to Ray Catena Mercedes Benz.BTW, My friends are also customers of the Ray Catena...Feel free to E-mail me for any questions, Makeuhighataol.com

Today I brought my 1992 Mercedes 500 SL in for a diagnoses. I had no expatiation's of the car being repaired today, but did expect your technicians to have sufficient time to find out what was wrong with my auto. I brought the car in at 830 in the morning and received a phone call from one of your service ad visors informing me that they wanted to keep the car over night that they needed a minimum of 4 hours to diagnose the problem. Since I had an appointment for 830 this morning and my vehicle was there at 815AM I cant understand why the diagnoses couldn't be completed today. I paid 227.00 for absolutely nothing, It's not the money that upsets me! It's the fact that the employees of Ray Catena Mercedes Benz underestimated my intelligence by having me come back for a second service appointment and a second chance to be ripped off.D. F. Orlan

What kind of dealer swaps a real CL55 for a pre-production car?<br><br>This dealer shipped a pre-production car across country(minus MANY options, theres even no open door/trunk/hood light), but faxed a copy of the window tag of a REAL CL55.<br><br>They knowingly sold a different car, and took more money for it.<br><br>They should burn.

The largest dealership in the area. Very nice people, cheap prices on parts, but the worst service department. Their service runs like an assembly line, so one person takes the car apart, another fixes problem, and yet another puts the car back together. This seems fine, except they usually cause more problems then they fix. $5,800 worth of damage to fix an antenna on a brand new car. They broke the seat, the interior door panel, the electric roof, etc...
What’s more, Ray Catena Mercedes-Benz of Edison has been on the market for a very long time and remains the preferred dealership for buyers looking for used cars and trucks for sale.
