Let me first start off by saying that Enthusiast Auto Group is undoubtedly the ///M "Mecca" of the United States. Their selection of used ///M cars, as well as their attention to detail is absolutely second to none. Furthermore, their knowledge of the cars they sell is simply outstanding, which is a rare trait in the industry. Just over a month ago I inquired with EAG about a Jet Black 2003 e39 M5 I saw on their website. The car had some extensive modifications, including tuning work, aftermarket suspension, aftermarket brakes, an aftermarket exhaust, etc. Buying a modified car, especially a modified ///M car can be a daunting task. Maintenance and installation records can be hard to come by, and making sure the parts were installed correctly is paramount. I gave Eric a call and told him I was interested in his M5, I also told him I would be trading a 2007 Roush Stage 3 Mustang should we come to terms on a deal. Eric remembered me immediately (my Dad had purchased an immaculate M Roadster from EAG 6 months prior) and proceeded to describe his M5 in great detail, disclosing every minute imperfection (although there were very few). Eric also went on to tell me that the car belonged to a personal friend of his (a BMWCCA member), and that EAG had done all the work on the car (including installation of the modifications and maintenance) for the past 32k miles. Eric then sent me an email with the entire history of the car attached (including all maintenance and modification installation receipts, as well as a myriad of professional photos of every square inch of the car). When it came time to talk numbers, Eric went out of his way to find a buyer for my Roush, and after merely a few days the deal was done. After driving the car for over a month now, I couldn't be more satisfied, and I have Eric, Evan, and the EAG team to thank for that. Additionally, after receiving the car I realized that it had enough Dinan parts to earn a Dinan deck lid badge (the previous owner had not applied for the badge). I gave Eric a call, he and his team got in touch with Dinan, and the badge was shipped  to me in under a week (I was expecting the inquiry to take at least a few weeks). In closing...Eric, Evan, and the rest of the EAG team are first and foremost BMW enthusiasts, and their love of the cars they sell transcends  an exemplary car buying experience. I take pride in saying that I'll be an EAG customer for life.

I just wanted to say thanks for the great car and the great service I received from yourself and all the staff at EAG. My M5 is a truly great automobile and it's condition, both cosmetically and mechanically, is flawless. EAG knows these cars and knows how to put them in absolutely like-new condition. I appreciate the diligence and knowledge EAG devotes to the task. It's not often that one gets to make a significant decision in hindsight, but that is what EAG makes possible. A little over 10 years ago I considered buying a new M5 but deferred. I occasionally reflected that perhaps I had made the wrong decision. But after discovering EAG, I realized I could possibly still own a virtually new one. And buying in hindsight, with the advantages of experience, selectivity and availability, is actually a great way to go. But this is only practical if there is a business like EAG to screen, collect and refurbish cars like this. When the right car came along, it was an easy decision. The M5 is spectacular. Thank the entire EAG staff on my behalf.

After looking for an E39 M5 for months and being disappointed with the quality of the vehicles available through private sale, I found my M5 for sale at EAG through Cars.com. When I inquired about the car, EAG immediately sent me detailed condition related photos, a build sheet, and documentation of the (extensive) work they had put into the car. This helped me to feel more confident that there weren't "hidden flaws", which concerned me with such a long distance purchase. I put a deposit down and booked passage to Cincinnati for that weekend.  The purchase itself was seamless - they picked me up at the airport, had the car detailed and ready for a test drive when I got there.  The car was spotless cosmetically and perfect mechanically. Before purchasing the car I had nightmares about rod bearings, VANOS issues and gas filler rust... among many other things. Once I arrived at EAG and got to see the extensive (and immaculate) fleet of M vehicles, their shop area and staff, I knew that my car had been thoroughly looked after and examined for common issues. I mean, where else, even at a dealership, will you hear someone say "Can you move the Estoril E36 into the detail shop"? If you are an M enthusiast, these are your people, and they will take care of you and your car. After purchasing the car I drove it 2,600 miles back home. It was perfect. Through 14 hour days, interstate speed runs, passing on back roads, sweeping turns and even snow, it kept on going, as reliable and bulletproof as an Accord. That reliability and cleanliness is why EAG cars are worth the cost and the trip to Cincinnati.

Eric, I received my 2002 BMW Z3 Septmenber 16, 2013 in perfect condition from EAG BMW. It is everything that I hoped it would be based upon your description. As you know, I bought this car sight unseen, so I was somewhat anxious about buying a car out of State. I can honestly say that I would buy another car from EAG and I have already told several friends and family members about my very positive experience dealing with EAG. Thanks to you Eric, and your associates to include Blaire S., Josh, and Todd. I have put about 150 miles on the Z3 so far and have found no problems whatsoever. The car is in truly "as new condition". I am sure that I will enjoy my Z3 for years to come. I could not be happier with my purchase.

           Who buys a used car from 2500 miles away?  Well, surprising even ourselves, we did.  When our computer kept showing the majority of the good E46 M3's residing in Cincinnati, we looked into it and discovered EAG.  As old timers, the idea of buying a car on the internet sight unseen is still a reach.  However, we thought a one-way plane ride to drive two or three possible choices followed by a cross country road trip home just might work.  A few phone conversations with Evan at EAG confirmed that idea, and we planned our trip with about four or five real possibilities based on information sent by Evan.                 We showed up at EAG to find a lineup of four of these M3's all shined up and ready to go.  We spent most of the day driving, re-driving, and discussing the pros and cons of these four vehicles.  We narrowed the field to two.  After sleeping on it, we made our choice, relayed that choice to Evan, and by the time we showed up on day 2, Evan had done the minor things we requested on our choice.  The financial paperwork was done very efficiently, and we were on our way west by early afternoon.  Our leisurely trip home was very enjoyable and our Competition Package '05 M3 performed flawlessly, sometimes a little too easily cruising in the 90+ MPH range.  Our radar detector also performed well.                 We thank Evan especially, and also Eric and Josh for making our purchase a positive and enjoyable experience.  We remain very impressed with the business model at EAG. 

Big thank you to Evan, Josh, Todd and Blaire for all their great communication, professionalism and interest in their customers' buying process. I never dreamed of buying a car sight unseen. This car is awesome. At first, I thought the price was high but your getting a car that is in great condition, low miles and they fix things ahead of time to get you driving right away. I love this car and If I ever trade it in, I am looking to get an M3. Great work guys! 

In my family, we've had 8 E36 M3 variations since 1995. It sounds crazy, butsome of them were leases, others were track cars and then others were transportation that filled the gaps between other M Car acquisitions.It seems that no matter what happens, all roads literally lead back to an E36 M3. They may not be held in the highest "M esteem" among purists, but I have always believed they offered the most fun for the best value. So, when it was time to find E36 #9, I wanted to find a really special E36 M3 to distract me from missing my beloved E90 M3. There was only one place to turn: Enthusiast Auto Group. I got a good trade price for my 2011 and exchanged it for one of the sweetest low-mileage M3 4-Door survivors in the USA. Before delivery, the EAG team went over and and over that car. I've spent a week in my new time capsule and I am loving it's many 20th century virtues. It is small, light, and even more fun than I remember from when these cars were new. Thanks, Enthusiast Auto. I'll be back in the future.Dave Flogaus

I was looking for an E39 M5 for a little over a year before I visited Enthusiast Auto, and after a few minutes talking to Eric and seeing the car I knew I was at the right place. He has the best examples of M cars and a wide selection available. All I can say is that I couldn't be any happier with my choice, and if I was looking for another M car I'd know exactly where to go.

Eric, Evan, Blair, Todd and all others at EAG Thanks so much for all the care in the sale and transfer of my latest M Coupe. Over the years we have had many transactions but I never cease to be amazed at the wide range of services you offer. The personalized attention to the quality of the cars you deliver is beyond compare and even when I send a "Repeat Visitor" I always feel that I am treated fairly and that my wishes are respected. You guys have a unique place in the US BMW M-Car Culture and I will never hesitate to recommend you for anyone who wants a well cared for and properly prepared BMW. I think I'll keep this Coupe for a long time, but I look forward to our next interaction (maybe an Alpina?)

Evan, Eric and staff,Thanks for a great buying experience and an even better product.  I traveled 700 miles round-trip to do business with EAG and would do so again without hesitation.  Truthfully, if I had an open garage spot I would do so again tomorrow.  My 06 ZCP M3 was exactly as described.  Actually it was even better in person.  The numerous photos and detailed work orders give an accurate description.  I knew the car pretty well inside and out even before I set foot on the lot.   Mechanically, the car is in stellar condition.  It needs nothing except a skilled driver and an open winding road.  I've enjoyed driving it tremendously.  Even my local BMW center was impressed at the car's condition.  For me it had been 6 years between M car ownership.  I must say the old adage does hold true; absence does in fact make the heart grow fonder.   The idea of buying a car across state lines, sight unseen sounds like a scary proposition.  But doing business with EAG is simple and painless.  The transaction was quick and there were no surprises.  I'd highly recommend you to anyone.

Thank you EAG for a seamless, efficient and very high quality buying experience. I have spent the past six months doing endless research on various M3- related forums and in working through the internet looking at M3 cars for sale. In very few instances, was I comfortable even contemplating buying a car sight unseen. Then about a month ago I came across your web site and did the requisite research on EAG. After the research, I was comfortable buying a M3 sight unseen form EAG and did so in the past week. The process was seamless and, as I stated above, was a satisfying experience. Just as well, the car arrived very quickly and EAG arranged the transport, thus saving me from another painful experience (I collect vintage Porsches so I have some experience in arranging transport). When I got the car, I was most impressed. This is like a new car and is just perfect. The work that EAG did in the work order also brought the car up to a perfect standard. Thank you again and I most appreciate the EAG service and ability to deliver.

I have spent the last 10 days and approximately 900 miles getting thoroughly acquainted on the back roads of NH, VT, and eastern NY with my "new" 2005 E46 M3 Convertible purchased from EAG, and I just returned from getting her State inspected at a local shop, where the Mechanic's exact words were, "So, what are you going to drive in the Winter, because this car has obviously never seen snow; it looks basically new to me"…this vehicle is flat-out awesome!!  Sign me up for the official EAG fan club, because their bold claims and all the praise they receive out there in online community are spot on. Evan was great to deal throughout the transaction and I feel I will be able to call upon him as a resource for years to come; Blaire efficiently and courteously handled all of the paperwork aspects of the transaction; and, Todd and Evan ensured the vehicle I paid for on Tuesday and had upgraded through the EAG shop on Wednesday, was securely delivered 850+ miles away into my driveway on Saturday.  Like so many others before me, I researched and pondered for 2+ years buying an M3 from EAG site unseen/in an entirely virtual capacity, and I am now so glad I finally did, because for basically the price of a well-equipped new Accord, I am now the proud owner of a legitimate super car that is in great condition, which I realistically plan to own and enjoy for the next 20+ years…if you are a car enthusiast and you have never had the chance to experience BMW's S54 M3 engine in-person, put it on the bucket list asap, and then figure out how to buy one from EAG…I cashed-in a few chips earlier than expected to make this happen, but the experience and enjoyment this vehicle provides now is worth a lot more than merely having a larger pile of chips later, because as the saying goes, you cannot buy back time!  Lastly, it is true that you will pay a premium when you purchase from EAG, but what that premium really buys you is the invaluable peace of mind that comes with purchasing a quality product….remember: when you buy quality, you only cry once!

Thanks to all of you at Enthusiast Auto Group I have a lovely topaz blue Z3 in my garage.  The car is simply gorgeous!  It is, in fact, more stunning than I anticipated.I hesitate to continue with superlatives, but this vehicle is far beyond anything I anticipated.  It certainly exceeds my expectations in every way.  Driving the Z3 is a bit different than motoring around in my 34 year old TR6!  I'm sure you can appreciate my initial reaction to the ease of shifting gears and power of this engine today. No complaints.  I'm looking forward to many wonderful adventures with this car. Northern Michigan is the perfect place for a sports car, and this is such a perfect vehicle for summers here. The most outstanding aspect of this purchase has been the quality of service provided by you and your staff.  Your extensive knowledge and honesty certainly made a difference when I was contemplating an Internet auto purchase. Blaire and Todd could not have been more supportive with the actual purchase and shipping arrangements.  Everyone was so very easy---and delightful---to work with.  Jeff, the transport driver, was equally courteous and conscientious.He took good care of this car in transport.  As the car rolled off the trailer I was aware of your words that it "is stellar and will not disappoint".  It is! But what was really stellar and did not disappoint was the professionalism of everyone at EAG that I dealt with.  You all did a exemplary job...and that is greatly appreciated. It has indeed been a pleasure to do business with EAG.  Thank you. Jackie Olshin

Eric and the rest of Enthusiast Auto Group, I just want to say thank you for an outstanding (and fun) BMW buying experience. I appreciated being handled with kid gloves (like picking me up at theAirport) and also being shown around your facilities while learning about the history of some of your beautiful and rare BMW's. My M3 was exactly as (maybe even a bit better) than advertised. The transaction was completed smooth and trouble free. Even the one little glitch with the brakes during the test drive was handled immediately and professionally. To borrow a comment from another customer..."EAG has set the bar extremely high in the sight-unseen car buying world and, after my experience.100% endorsement!!" I couldn't agree more!  After my purchase, I made the 600 mile trek back home to New Jersey safe and sound. The car drove like a jet!What a pleasure to drive. It fits me like a glove. They may be the most comfortable seats I've ever had, with a perfect driving position.  I had the top down the whole way.  Eric, you were right, with the wind screen up, it was very comfortable at any speed.  The entire EAG team went above and beyond my expectations and I look forward to continued smiles every time I hop in the car!

Thank you for making such an IMPORTANT transaction in one's life (i.e. purchasing a home/car) easy and painless.  I found your car listed on the internet at AutoTrader.com back in late 2012, and went to view your website linked from Autotrader.com.  I was NOT expecting to see an independent BMW dealership that ONLY sells used yet in pristine condition, BMW M cars (M3, M).  This was like a god-send.  Then when I saw the prices, they were warranted due to the condition and the extremely low mileage.  And the color combinations that most BMW M enthusiasts seek, were available at your dealership.  Finding a late E46 chassis M3 in Alpine White with black interior and manual 6-spd transmission and relatively low-miles is difficult.  Finding yours with only 32k+ mileage and in almost new condition was like finding a needle in a haystack.  The price I paid was worth every penny.  And on top of that you pointed me to a great financial credit union that I had never heard of (PenFed - Pentagon Federal Credit Union) whose rates are un-matched by both my own credit union and my main bank that I was going to use.  1.49% interest rate on a used car loan can't be beat.  Having the whole transaction done over the phone and e-mail and working with me on the financing was great.  And even doing this over the holidays so that I can finally have my new (new to me) car for the start of 2013 was a present/gift to myself.  And that you're a BMWCCA member, then you understood my needs as I too am a BMWCCA member.  I have mentioned your website to others, and some have actually heard of you and even Mike Miller from The Roundel magazine (BMWCCA's magazine) recommends your dealership to discrete and very particular customers who only want top-notch M cars.  The best compliment that I can give to you was the one that Chapman BMW on Camelback in Central Phoenix told me when I brought in the car to have the factory alarm installed.  My service advisor said that he and the service technicians in the shop said that they haven't seen such a CLEAN, well-maintained, low-mileage used E46 M3 like that in their lives!  And that IF I was bored with the car and I wanted to sell it, that he has 5 people in line that want to buy it! :)  Well I know you have first rights to buy it back from me if I decide to sell it.  That's a BIG IF and I doubt it'll happen.  I love my M3.  Thanks again Evan.  Here's some pictures of my car after getting the car covered in a 3M clear-bra and adding SunTek tinting for the vicious Arizona summer heat that is coming.  And some tasteful decals along with BBS CH wheels on Michelin-shod Pilot Super Sport tires!

Good morning EAGTeam,I would like to thank you guys for an outstanding sight-unseen BMWbuying experience. Exactly one year ago, I finalized my purchase of the E36 M3C. After many unsuccessful internet searches, I found your website while browsing through listings onAutotrader. Immediately, I realized that this was the place I had been searching for topurchase my future M car. In no time, I was able tofind the car I was looking for. From the day Ibookmarked your website,to the hour the car arrived - I was completely content with thetrouble-free purchasing experience. From the initial phone conversation with Eric, to receiving Emails complemented with an ample supply of pictures, to receiving detailed history reports, arrangingtransportation - everything was handled in a professional manner and went just as expected. Through your service, an M3Coriginally from two towns over from where I reside in is back to happy garage in Massachusetts!  Thanks again for the great experience and I look forward todoing business again with you in the future.  Kind Regards,

Thanks to EAG for an outstanding experiencing purchasing our “new” 05' M3 ZCP! Not only did they have the exact car I was looking for (and are EXTREMELY knowledgeable about these cars), but they went out of their way to make sure the purchase process was above and beyond what my wife and I were expecting. Their obvious commitment to excellence was refreshing and made the whole process enjoyable and stress-free.  First, we were on the fence about either flying the 1k miles up to CVG to pick up the car, or having them put it on a closed car carrier and ship it. The decision was made easy when Evan offered to have one of his staff drive an HOUR up to Dayton (best ticket prices) to pick us up.  Upon arriving (a bit early, before they were even really open), the car was pulled up in front of the office, fully detailed and ready for inspection. It was exactly as advertised, with any minor blemishes that Evan noted in the 50+ photos he sent me previously barely even noticeable. Evan noticed my wife and I were in a rush to get on the road, so he let us do a test drive, then had all the paperwork ready for us when we got back. We signed the docs, got some free T-shirts, and went on our way smiling.  To top it all off, we had an O2 sensor fail on the drive back (Sunday), Evan got back to me that same day and reassured us it was safe to drive, apologized for the inconvenience, and told us to take it to a reputable indy shop back hope to get fixed....ON THEM. (Subsequently, Josh was also a pleasure to deal with, friendly and coordinated with my local shop to fix it) This blew us away, because O2 sensors sometimes just go, and there's no real inspection or preventative maintenance for them, and therefore it was not their problem to deal with. Couldn't have asked for a better experience. Evan and the crew at EAG went above and beyond in all aspects of our experience with them, and deserve the stellar reputation they have.  Thanks again! 

Working with Evan, Eric & all the guys at EAG was & stillIS great. If you want someone to trust & be up-front with you, these guysare it. They're my friends & no matter whom I spoke with over the phone,whether Eric or Josh or whomever, the communication & purchasing processwas clear, concise & forthright. They broke down all the numbers &didn't make me feel uncomfortable or put-off, which, made me trust them &their service. I wanted to buy from someone I trusted & who speak thelanguage of an enthusiast & gear-head. They do that allllll day long &it made me feel secure in what I was buying & the history of myvehicle.

I was in high school when the E46 M3 came about.  At the time I was probably reading three separate car magazines a month and poured over the reviews of the M as though I were deliberating on the purchase in a most serious manner.  Not only did I fall in love with the looks of the car instantly but everything I read painted a picture of the perfect drivers car.  Sure there were some driver aids but the car had purity and simplicity.   A few years later I was working at an upscale deli and catering establishment in town, about my senior year of high school.  One summer day with the door open I heard an engine coming into the lot and caught sight of a neon yellow E46 pulling in.  It turned out to be a friend of the owner and when he was leaving, they called to me to come out and see the car knowing full well how much I adored it.   This was the first day I ever sat in an E46 M3.  The position felt completely natural.  I had driven some expensive sports cars but never felt quite right in them whereas this made me feel at home.   My yearning for the M3 never dulled even when the E92 was released, it just didn't seem right to me and thus I never faltered.  After two years of seriously pouring myself over car adverts online and routinely having five tabs open on my web browser of various E46's around the country I decided it was time to pull the trigger and my search intensified.   I knew I wanted a number of things, deep blue exterior, standard transmission, the nineteen inch double spoke, heated seats, sunroof and a generally stock car.  I also wanted the interior to be something a bit out of the ordinary.  My daily driver is a conservative Volvo that is all comfort and while quite classy and pretty in my mind, is not overly gaudy.  I wanted the E46 to have a little something different.  The cinnamon interior was what I decided on.   I searched for a few months and finally found what I thought was nearly the right car at Enthusiast.  I spoke with Evan on the phone a few times, finally realizing that maybe we could change out the 18's for 19's and the car would be perfect.  We sorted out the details and I was down in Ohio a few days later to pick it up.   When we pulled into the lot, everything I had imagined the car would be was parked in front of me, real enough that I could reach out and touch it though I dared not set off the alarm.  Evan walked my friend and I through the car, explaining details I hadn't known about despite reading the owners manual on my computer.  Driving it for the first time was sublime.  I had worried that I might have set my expectations too high and set out unrealistic expectations but that all faded away from the first notes of the low rumbling exhaust.   Back at Enthusiast I signed some paperwork, picked out a t-shirt in my favorite color, shook hands and took to the road back to Michigan.  I take every excuse I can to drive it, surprising some of my friends and catching myself grinning every time I walk out of a shop and into the parking lot to find my car, then realizing what I'm looking for and feeling myself filled with glee.   I could never have asked for a better experience buying a car.  Professionalism on the part of everyone at Enthusiast left me feeling completely at peace with the purchase and only concerned with the details of how soon I could make the trip.  The reputation of Enthusiast left my worries in the rearview mirror as my confidence in the integrity of the car grew with everything Evan told me about their process.  I'm not sure when (because I love this car so much) but I know I'll be back to see them again, likely sooner rather than later.Thanks Enthusiast, Sincerely, 

EAG,    I wanted to write a note of thanks, to express my gratitude for an outstanding BMW buying experience.  EAG has set the bar extremely high in the sight-unseen car buying world and, after my experience…100% endorsement!!  From the initial email to transporter delivery, every step was carried out with professionalism and pride.  My original E30 was every bit as you described and illustrated in the excellent photographs.  The transaction was completed professionally, every promise kept and zero delay.  EAG is truly “THE” BMW resource.  From the inventory, to the wealth of product knowledge, to the service, to the purchase, it was the best vehicle experience I have ever had.     Give me a few years to treasure and preserve and I might let you have this E30 as a “repeat visitor.”  Your whole team went above and beyond my expectations and I've been enjoying the car ever since.  Thank you again!
