On Saturday July 26th, I purchased from World Imports USA a Crimson Red 2013 BMW Z4 S28i. When I reviewed the ad for this vehicle several days earlier, and emailed Paul C. to inquire about the Z4, I found that it was a BMW manufactures buyback. This gave me uneasy feelings about what I might be getting into by purchasing a so call Lemon automobile. I read their section on manufacturers buyback information and questions, where it said that the remaining original warranty would still be in effect. So being concerned, I called Tom Bush BMW in Jacksonville and gave them the vehicle identification number for the advertised 2013 Z4. They told me why it was bought back and what was done to fix the issue, (which, by the way, was the same information I received from World Import USA). Tom Bush BMW stated that the remaining full BMW warranty on the Z4 was in effect until March of 2017 including the free scheduled maintenance. This gave me a more secure feeling towards purchasing the car. I went to the dealership and spoke with Paul Cicchinelli, who was very helpful in answering every question I had from initial walk-in introduction to the final handshake and turning over the key fob. I next examine every section of the car to see if it was as good as the pictures in the ad. (We all know how pictures can sometimes be very deceiving). But to my amazement, there was not so much as 1 scuff mark on the drivers inside door panel or the entrance threshold. And for a tight enter/exit sports car, that was a big plus. It was, in my opinion, well taken care of during its initial ownership and subsequent buyback period with BMW. And since I went to see the Z4 the actual day it arrived at the dealership, I saw it even before they had a chance to detail it. Aesthetic wise, it was everything they promised. I then took it out for a ride and experienced what it was like to drive the Z4. It was everything I thought it should be. Then I noticed that there was a fault code for the DSC that was on. I took it back to World Imports; they put in on the analyzer and said that the code needed to be reset, and it should be done under warranty. I called Tom Bush BMW and set up my first scheduled free under warranty oil change and to have them reset the fault code. I picked up the Z4 at Tom Bush, the oil was changed and the code was reset and the cost was $0.00. Everything was under the original BMW warranty. The Z4 is my daily driver and it has now been over a month since I purchased it from World Imports USA. The Z4 has performed flawlessly, and puts a huge smile on my face every time I get behind the wheel and push the start button. Im even surprised at the MPG that I am getting. I have actually averaged around 28 MPG/week so far. Im not too aggressive with the pedal. World Imports USA delivered what they promised. They gave me an acceptable trade-in value on my car and presented a reasonable price for the BMW Z4. If youre looking for a luxury vehicle at a good price, dont pass up the manufactures buyback program. Its OK in my book. Michael Fargnoli Jr. Jacksonville , Florida

Drove 1.5 hours to dealership to check out cars seen online. Very nice lineup of cars, knowledgeable sales team. Shook hands on deal to be finalized the next morning. The next morning, we called to finalize, get the tax, title price and was told deal was off - owner?, manager? decided they would not honor the handshake on price - said it was a mistake - raised price back to sticker. It was to be a cash deal to them - I leave it to you to decide integrity. Me, I have decided. Oh - get agreements in writing......

My husband was at the dealership this week for over 6+ hours looking at a uses 2011 BMW X6. He brought it to me to look at (6pm) and since we live 45-69 minutes away he told them he would bring our trade in which he did at 9am the following morning. We agreed to purchase the car and he filled out a credit application and was waiting for them to call him back at work to go over the numbers. He was told they would clean the car and have it ready to go that afternoon. He received a phone call from the manager that afternoon saying that another guy had looked at the car a few days prior but did not fill out a credit app or anything. He apparently came back the same day all this was happening and bought the car right underneath us! They allowed this and barely apologized. Apparently the first come first serve rule does not apply here. Very disappointing. There are no extenuating circumstances. We had a good condition 2010 Suburban as a trade and excellent credit.

My sales rep Jeff was knowledgeable, transparent and good to work with. The no sales pressure environment was refreshing and they made the buy process stress free. I would purchase from this dealership again.

We are in the process of moving from Richmond, Virginia to Palm Coast, Florida over the coming months and need another car. We are interested in an Infinity G37 convertible. World Imports had a few but not exactly what I was looking for. I sent in a note to be advised as new cars came in. Josh gave me a call the following day explained what he had and promised to update me as other G37's came in. He has been doing just that. Looking forward to working with Josh and World Imports when they have the "right" vehicle come in.

From the times I corresponded with with a service rep, I gathered that they did everything they could to accommodate my queries in purchasing a vehicle.

I just bought a used car from World imports. This was definitely the best experience I have ever had buying a car! They were so easy to work with. Paul was great. I will definitely refer friends to buy from there:).

Moved to Jax in 06 and take all of my cars (4) to Pat Ojeda, Service Mgr at World Imports because he is more interested in helping the customer rather than ripping them off. I consider it a relationship, one of trust, that I know every time I bring one of my cars in for service he will have it evaluated, give me the costs, and perform the task. I've had several occasions by which they have adjusted, or even changed something without charging me a dime. Loyalty is a 2-way street, and I feel lucky to have have that with their Service Dept. They also have very reasonable rates. I recommend them to everybody I know.

What a nice change. I found what I was looking for online and contacted the sales department. Don described the car to me, worked figures and arranged financing for me the same day. I picked up my new car and there were no surprises at all. I wish all my shopping was that easy. Thank you for a very nice experience.

I purchased my ML350 in 2006 and it has been the best car ever. I now have 275,000 miles on it and it is running like a champ. Jimmy is great in sales and Pat is the man when it comes to quality service. These guys here really take pride in their customers and I enjoy working with them.

I just stopped in to compare to a vehicle I was getting ready to buy. Found a better car at a better price. No pressure made everything easy. I'll buy my wife's car there when she's ready.

Pat and his crew at World Imports are the best. My husband and I don't know a THING about keeping our vehicles running but Pat takes care of them and we appreciate everyone's expertise and hard work. Can't thank you enough for your superior care and integrity.

I have brought my Volvo to Pat in the service department for the past 6 years. He helps me with regular service, as well as with car crises. Pat is a very knowledgeable service pro. He thoroughly explains all options in a comprehensible manner. I don't pretend to know anything about cars. I totally trust Pat... and when he takes a rare vacation, Justin is similarly helpful. World Imports service department rocks!

Pat is always helpful. I was in and out within 30 minutes. The shop was full and he still managed to squeeze me in. We take all 4 of our cars to World Imports for service.

Since I started using World Imports (WI) for service approx. 7 years ago at the recommendation of another mechanic that worked for another import car dealership, I have never been more comfortable with the trust in an auto mechanic than I do in Pat Ojeda and WI. I take and have taken all of my vehicles there (Tundra, BMW, Maxima, Jeep Wrangler, Tahoe). The pricing for the repairs is always fair and I never feel as though I have had to pay for something that wasn't needed. In being a business owner myself, it is all about providing a good and fair service which relates to trust which develops the business relationship. With Pat and WI, I feel as though I have that and more. They have exceeded my best experiences anywhere else in my 32 years of adulthood. Thanks Pat for many years of worry free mechanical support!

We bought a Limited Grand Cherokee and have never had any issues with this jeep, it has been a wonderful vehicle! The prices are more than reasonable!! If I could give World Imports a 10 plus, I would!! Love Love them!!!!

Went to my local BMW dealer looking for a 5 series. I found one I was interested in but the salesman went out of his way to warn me about World Imports. I decided to stop by and had a very pleasant experience. Bought the vehicle I wanted and saved money. Glad I stopped by.

The experience that I had at World Imports is second only to the experience that I am having in my Lotus. Not being a person that knows everything about sports cars, Jimmy answered all of my "stupid" questions with professionalism and honesty. No snickers behind his answers, just giving me the informaion that I needed as a novice. I have always been a fan of nice cars but have never been in the position to buy one until now. Jimmy made my purchase an easy one and now I can honestly say that I know more about this car than any other that I have ever owned. Thank you everybody at World Imports and Lotus of Jacksonville!

I experienced exceptional service and professionalism when dealing with the entire World Import Staff, I was treated with the utmost courtesy and help in buying my new-used vehicle. All my questions were answered and I am completely satisfied with the experience. The service department was also extremely courteous and available to me if needed in future.

I have bought over 25 cars in my life in over 6 cities and for the most part they have nothing less than tedious. Recently I purchased a high end sports car from World Imports and my buying experience has given me new hope for the proverbial "car salesman". I not only was treated with respect, but they actually listened to what I had to say and made the purchase seamless and actually fun!

I've been shopping cars for 45 years and HATE it, but if those experiences were like the one I had at World Imports USA, I'd look forward to it! I stopped to check out a car I was interested in, and fell in love with a different one. The salesman was super with absolutely NO pressure. I went home to do a price check and found the car to be $1200 under BlueBook. I returned to find my original salesman busy, but another, equally gentile compatriot picked right up. A short while after an easy bargaining and I was on my way! A week later when I found a minor problem with a rear window switch, they fixed it in 20 minutes without charge. I highly recommend World Imports USA without reservation. They are a great TEAM!

After several failed attempts at other local dealerships,I found a BMW at World Imports that was the right mileage,options and price range. When I came to the dealership I was pleasantly surprised by how professional and organized this dealership was compared to others I have visited recently. The process of direct answers and easy negotiations is a lesson other dealers could learn from. I not only got the car I wanted at the price I WANTED TO SPEND, I also was treated with the up most respect. I highly recommend this dealership, and all ready have to my family members.

My husband and I both have vehicles from World Imports. After we purchased my husbands Late modle Toyota SUV from the dealership, we had such a great experience, and got such a great price, we decided to replace my vehicle with a 2008 Nissan SUV from the dealership as well. Everything has gone so smoothly with both purchases we would not dream of going anywhere else, and once my factory warranty runs out on my car we will be going to World Imports for our service as well.

This is now the only place that I will buy another car or take my car to be serviced! World Imports has it all right when it comes to sales and service. They treat you like you are family from beginning to end of the sale and treat your car as if it is their own when providing any service that might be required to your vehicle. I have purchased 5 cars from this dealership and have been very satisfied with the quality and price each and every time. I recommend World Imports to everyone. . .
