"Great Buying Experience"
This was the first time I have ever bought a car at a dealership and it was a great experience. Nick the sales rep was very helpful, knowledgeable and a great person to work with. Highly recommended.
"This Is The Way To Buy A Car"
Just bought a Lexus GX460 from Stuart Cohen. Stuart is not pushy, he truly wants to help people, not just make a commission. Stuart listens to what you want/need. I have a injured/sore shoulder and am 6 3 so I need a seat that really fits me. Stuart actually e-mailed a custom upholstery company photos of the car seat with measurements that would help them do something custom. I actually have a Lexus dealer (Lexus of Manchester NH) 4 miles from my house, but because theyre sales managers Nigel and Ed are so arrogant and pushy I went two hours away to buy my car from Berlincity Lexus in Portland Me. Please go to stuart if you want a relaxed, speedy and fun buying experience.
"Excellent"
I had the pleasure of working with Nick Nadeau of Berlin City Toyota and my experience was nothing short of fantastic. I put my trust in his hands and through every expectation I had he came through ten fold and always went above and beyond for me and ALWAYS had my best interest as a consumer in mind. He was personable and very professional and above all else he helped ease my mind of the whole dreadful car buying process. Id been to several other dealers and hands down the comfort and trust Nick gave me reassured me that Id never have to search for another dealer/dealership again.

I appreciate the experience of shopping for a new car with Nick Nadeau at Berlin City. I shopped around, they gave me the best price. Nick spent time with me, never made me feel rushed into making a decision and even picked me up after I dropped off my rental car. I know if I have any questions down the road he will be there to answer. Great experience!

"Great Dealership - Great Car!!"
We are retired military and used the USAA car buying service to find a dealership in our area (Maine) that had the car we were looking for and the right price. Within a couple of minutes of filling out our request, we received a call from Steve Lawrence at Berlin City and that was "the beginning of a beautiful relationship." A couple of phone calls with Steve to sort out the details and we were picking up our 2017 Prius within a few days of our original search. We are ecstatic over the car and the service we received from Steve and the staff at Berlin City. Thanks!!

We really enjoyed working with Tony Lekas. He was very professional, patient and attentive to all of our questions. He was great, as were his all colleagues at Berlin City. Best car-buying experience we have ever had -- by far!!
"Great People To Work With."
Nick Nadeau was extremely helpful. More like a consultant than a pushy salesperson. He helped me get set up with what I wanted and went above and beyond to work with me and make sure I was taken care of. Thank you.

We (My husband, Dave and I) were in North Conway, NH on a short three day get-away. We live in the Burlington, Vermont area. Dave found a 2008 Acura MDX online at Berlin City, that looked like a good deal. We needed a newer SUV to tow our boat for the upcoming summer/boating season. Dave emailed Berlin City first thing on a Saturday morning, and Nick Nadeau, the Salesman, responded with in just a few minutes. He answered all of Davids questions. Then we decided to take the 1 plus hour trip to Portland, to check out the car. Upon arrival we asked for Nick. He was paged and came right away. He was quick, efficient, not-pushy, informative, pleasant, accommodating, and really went above and beyond his regular responsibilities. The extra care he took to make the experience positive and easy for us made a real difference.He himself, took the MDX out back and touched up the trailer hitch with black paint, put some floor mats down, that werent there, looked up the code to the radio, and got it all dialed in, so when we drove away, we could listen to the radio, and just did everything he could to make our MDX as perfect as he could. He even printed out the owners manual, that the previous owner didnt return with the car. He looked up and printed out information on how to obtain a second key for us, and even had the car we came in washed for us. I was amazed! Nick is the best car salesman weve ever come in contact with, and in the future we would drive all the way to Portland, to have him help us with the purchase of a used car again. Look for "Nick" at Berlin City Portland! You wont be sorry!!!
"Great Experience Overall"
04-27-2017
A know a few people who work here and theyre wonderful. Steve Lawrence helped me get exactly the car I was looking at, in my budget, and really took time to show me all the features and make sure I was comfortable driving it. Really appreciate the positive, non-pushy attitudes Ive encountered here and will be back (hopefully not for awhile) next time. The space itself is really nice, too- comfy waiting area and sunny facility.
"Best Car Buying Experience!"
Nick Nadeau Was by far the best salesman Ive dealt with. He made the process very easy and enjoyable. I never felt that I had to buy anything. I strongly recommend going to this dealership for your next car, new or used, and make sure you ask for Nick.
"Used Car Buyer"
04-08-2017
This is the second car I have purchased from Berlin City. The first car was a Honda Pilot in 2002. The service department at the Honda dealership was always fair, great service and honest and pleasant. I owned that car for nearly 15 years and it had been driven over 280,000 miles. My experience in buying a used Lexus was just as pleasant as my previous experience. Tony, my salesman was very knowledgeable about all the technology, the mechanics of the car. Dan, the general manager was also very helpful regarding the Janus program. There is a very relaxed atmosphere at Berlin City and there was absolutely no pressure. I was able to see any information I was given regarding price etc. on a computer screen specifically there for the customer. I so appreciated the transparency in my used car buying experience. I have recommended Berlin City in the past and will continue to do so in the future. They are a very honest organization!
"Returning Customer"
We were met at the door by Jack Vincent who introduced him self and explained he was a new sales person, he was very polite and offered to help in any way if we needed anything. Jack put no pressure on us to buy. When we found a vehicle we liked and went back to meet with Jack, he did a great job answering all our questions, and when we had questions he could not answer he did not hesitate to ask for help from another sales person with more experience Nick Nadeau. The two did an outstanding job getting us all the questions answered and getting all the paperwork in order to purchase the vehicle we wanted.
"Confident New Lexus Is300 Owner"
Excellent experience with this dealership. Salesman and general manager projected a complete follow-through environment which gives confidence to prospective buyer. I look forward to driving my new Lexus with the sense that I can refer any questions to the team going forward.

Nick Nadeau was tremendous. He was more than helpful and went out of his way to accommodate my family and I. He is the reason I bought from Berlin City.
"Such An Uncomfortable Experiance"
02-22-2017
In regards to the Service Department: Told over the phone total repairs, (made sure to verify both parts AND labor) totaled $198 and change (part was on special for $125, 1/2 hour of labor brought this up to $198). Went to pick up my car and was handed a bill for $306. Went round and round with rep until he corrected my bill to $202 (which included tax). It was such an uncomfortable experience, I will never go back there. My car runs so thats why "quality of repairs" gets 3 stars.
"Awesome Experience"
True online buying experience. On the phone with Josh Bisson for 15 minutes and car was at my door step 1000 miles away in 2 days. I did pay $500 for the delivery but a very minimal amount considering the savings I had buying the car. Josh is great and I would highly recommend him and the dealership any day. I would also like to thank the drivers Penny and Barbara who drove the car through a blizzard to have it delivered on time. Great ladies, very friendly. The whole paper work at home was over in 10 minutes.

Ive been looking for a new truck for a few months. I started the search with Nick Nedeau back in Nov and left the lot with my dream truck yesterday (1/11). Nick was extremely informative, very knowledgeable and his no pressure mentality led me to the purchase of my new truck. He and his team took such great care of me that I can without hesitation recommend him if you or a friend are looking to make your next auto purchase. Weve all been there: there are times you feel like youve been "sold" a car and other times like youve "purchased" your car and I have to say, if youre looking to make a purchase for you or your family Nick and Berlin City is the place to go!
"Great Buying Experience"
It was very refreshing working with Nick Nadeau, Internet Sales Manager and the staff at Berlin City. I had emailed Nick what I was looking for and the deal I wanted on a new Rav4. I received their best price upfront and when I went in, it was exactly what they had stated. In fact, the deal was so good my wife ended up purchasing a similar vehicle as well. I must say it was the best car buying experience we have had in the 30 years of buying new vehicles. Hands down, the best dealership I have worked with in Maine.
"Helpful"
I inquired about a used vehicle. It was no longer on the lot, bUT the salesman was happy to find other cars that were similar for me.
"Nick Nadeau"
Our most recent experience with Berlin City and Nick Nadeau was more than a vehicle purchase, it was a life style change for our family. My in laws were at a point in their lives that they needed to downsize from two vehicles down to one. This was an emotional decision for the two of them as one would giving up a portion of their independence. Nick immediately understood the family dynamics and responded with compassion beyond that of a dealership salesperson. He arranged to have a new Tacoma brought around to a secluded area of the service department do to the outside temperature and away from the crowd, let my parents take as much time as they needed and only offer advice when asked. When the decision was made to trade their two vehicles in for a new Tacoma ( as compromise decision for both of them), Nick arrived early, had all of the paperwork prepared which made the sales transaction time to take less than twenty minutes. My wife and I can not express our gratitude enough. He treated our parents with dignity and always had their best interest at heart. I will sing the praises of Nick to any person who in contemplating the purchase of a vehicle. Berlin City has a has a great representative for their brand as well as a superior customer advocate.

"Bay From Cumberland"
Purchased a 2016 Tundra in October 2015 from Steve Lawrence, great experience, he listened to my needs and found the vehicle I was looking for in the price range I wanted. When it was time to help my daughter purchase a car we went back and saw Steve. He worked up a nice lease package in her price range.

Nick was quick to communicate and talk through items in a direct matter-of-fact way. His attention to details was refreshing as was his commitment to his work.
"The Future Looks Bright!!!!"
One Sunday, I drove through your Toyota lot and saw a vehicle there that said safety, smiles and so much more. I returned two days later, met your wonderful salesman, Nick and my hopes began to take shape. With fair salesmanship and integrity, Nick helped me to capture the future I was looking for: safe travels to family far away, smiles of fun enjoying driving a wonderful vehicle and loads of extra special things about owning this great vehicle! Nick took the challenge out of buying a car by being honest and a person of integrity. I will recommend him highly to friends and family and will seek him out years down the road when it is time to enjoy another wonderful car buying experience. Thank you for everything, Nick! You made the difference in my present and future! Thank you, Nick and Berlin City! Sincerely, Lisa M. Raft-Douglas
"Toyota Tacoma"
The best experience Ive ever had purchasing a vehicle. Nick Nadeau is top notch. Never felt pressured at any time. He went out of his way to help us-much appreciated. I would recommend this dealer to friends. I bought what I wanted at a price that fit my budget. Berlin City A+
"Good Deal"
Good experience, Steve Lawrence gave us good advice on a lease, made the deal as painless as possible. Would recommend dealership and will shop there again.
"A Pleasant Surprise!"
I was not looking forward to buying a new car. The last time I bought a car the salesman wanted to know if my husband would be coming in soon...ugh. Tyler greeted me at the door and was interested in putting me in the car I wanted right from the get-go. I wanted to go a bit smaller than my Honda Accord and the Corolla has comfort, style, good mileage, a large trunk, and is perfect for my needs. It all happened so quickly. I was stunned to drive away a few hours later in my beautiful new Corolla. I love, Love, LOVE it. Thank you Tyler!
"See Melanie At Berlin City"
Melanie provided terrific service - she is smart, fast, warm, and knowledgable.
"Dave Campbell"
This was the least hassle and most fun I have had in purchasing a new vehicle in over 45 years. Mark Hunter was great to deal with, has a great sense of humor, provided excellent knowledge of the vehicles and presented no pressure at all.
"Nick Was Awesome!"
Nick went out of his way to keep the lines of communication open from the very beginning. He kept his word & made sure I was happy from start to finish! I love my new Rav 4 !! Thank you again Nick!
"Its Easy"
I have contacted Berlin City Toyota for a quote , worked out with Stephen and it was amazing experience. Everything sorted out in emails, when I went to showroom, helped me with the finance options/got Special APR from Toyota and it all done, came out with vehicle. Stephen was very quick and knowledgeable to answer our questions and take decisions immediately .
"Best Car Buying Experience Ever"
First let me thank my sales rep, Nick Nadeau for doing an efficient, informative and honest! job of helping me buy the exact car I was looking for at a the best price. He was respectful of my wishes and answered all my questions respectfully and completely. His "agenda" was to make sure I was a satisfied customer. Period. This is very refreshing and I am grateful for that. Everyone I met at the dealership acted similarly. There was no back-room hardsell, and no bull. I did this transaction over the internet and by phone, since I live in NY during the week and only am in Maine for the weekends. It really was EASY, like their slogan says. I am a very satisfied customer

I purchased a Brand New 2016 Toyota Corolla S Plus. I thought it was going to be impossible to find the right car for the right price. I spoke to Nick Nadeau and he helped me understand the car buying process as well ad helped me get into the right car. He went above and beyond any other salesman I ha ever delt with. Nick Nadeau was very kind, understanding and made me very happy. Anyone who goes to Berlin City Toyota ask for Nick Nadeau!
"Anita"
Mark was a wonderful sales person. He was knowledgable about the vehicle and explained all of its features. He has invited me to come back to see him if I have other questions about learning the multitude of features of the car.
"Toyota. Rav4"
My experience buying my car was a very positive and helpful one. I had many questions to ask and got prompt answers that were very helpful plus some lessons on how to work the information on the panels for radio,gps and telephone etc. I wanted to know especially how the safety features worked and the warnings given when you were too close to an object. All this was answered in the most helpful and patient manner. My dealer even came to my house to get the title and extra key from the Toyota I was selling. I have gone to Berlin City for all of my services in the past and find everybody very helpful , prompt and thorough. I find their place cheerful and welcoming plus excellent service!
"It Really Was Easy!!!"

We were in need of a new car and headed over to Berlin City. Their selection was outstanding and we found exactly what we were looking for in a short period of time. The no haggle pricing was great and all the sales staff treated us so well. We would recommend this dealership to anyone.
"2012 Rav4 Purchase"
I recently purchased a low mileage 2012 RAV4 at Berlin City in Portland, ME which was the fifth transaction Ive had with them over the past seven years. As usual the sales and finance staff were helpful and courteous and I think that all involved with the transaction were satisfied with the results. I will definitely be returning and recommend others to do the same. Who would have thought that purchasing a new car would be pleasurable!

"Puchase Of 2012 Prius"
05-23-2016
I cannot say enough good things about Berlin City Toyota. Their customer service was exceptional, and they did a great job with my vehicle! On May 16, 2016, Monday, I called the dealership and spoke with Jesse Tavares. He answered my questions and invited me to stop over, and I did, about 90 minutes later. I was there all day till about 8pm. He took his time to answer all of my questions. I felt a great connection with my salesperson. By evening, I put down a deposit of $500 and returned on Wednesday, May 18, to finalize the purchase. It took us about three hours total. I decided on a 2012 Prius. They did such a great job with my vehicle that my friends and family thought it was a brand new car! Their detailing crew were exceptional! My car is now registered, plates on, title is on its way from Augusta. Berlin Toyota applied for the title for me. I am a very happy customer, and I HIGHLY recommend my salesperson, Jesse Tavares!!!! He is someone who will take time with you and personalize your visit so that you dont feel just like another customer. Even after the purchase, Jesse is happily available. He loves his customers, and he is passionate about his work. Michael Q.
"I Will Never Buy From Berlin City Again"
Terrible dealership. Could careless about the customer after you buy from them I would not recommend Berlin City Toyota to anybody nor will I ever purchase from them again.
"Great Experience!"
05-20-2016
After spending days online shopping for a RAV4 that would meet my needs/wants/budget, I had found two in the Westbrook and Saco areas that I was willing to drive down from 200 miles "north" to look at and take for test drives. Then my niece from Saco discovered one from Berlin City Toyota, a 2013 RAV4 Limited, that she thought I would be interested in. It surpassed my expectations and was listed at $2500 less than its "twin" in Westbrook with an added bonus of a navigation option. The mileage was higher than the one in Westbrook but was the same mileage and price as the XLE model in Saco. I expressed an interest online and was quickly notified by Jenn Rose who confirmed the price and availability. She knew I would be coming to the area on that Saturday, would be meeting my niece and her husband at the dealership and that I would have an older dog with me. She made me feel that everyone would be welcome when I arrived, and she was right! We had confirmed the price, fees, tax over the phone the night before, so there were NO surprises. Jenn took the buying anxiety completely out of the equation! After a longer-than-expected buying process, I was driving off their lot in a car I feel confident will last for many, many years. I want to add that the buying process was due to inadequate paperwork from my local credit union. I am sure many other weekend shoppers encounter the same issue. Credit Unions and banks need to find a way to ensure that dealerships will have their money on the day of sale and keep their customers from making several trips back and forth to complete the process. Thank you, Charlie, for finding a way to make this purchase possible on that Saturday! My niece drove my 2008 Toyota Camry back to their house; her husband drove their Toyota Camry back to their house; and I drove over a few minutes later in my new RAV4!
"Horrible Dealer"
All this dealership cares about is the Toyota Survey that rates their performance. I will Never do business with Berlin City Again.
"New 2016 Rav Berlin City Sales Rep. Harold Blaney"
Berlin City Motor group did a very good job of providing the information we needed to make a valid choice of sticking with Toyota I would check them out again when making another car choice in the future. No pressure sales pitch. Berlin city should be very lucky they have a salesman like Harold Blaney
"New Tacoma From Berlin City Portland, Maine"
Just bought a new Tacoma from Berlin City in Portland Maine. The whole process was actually really easy and stress free. Steve Lawrence went above and beyond to help us find exactly what we were looking for and for what price we were looking for. He made it happen and was very upfront, understanding and was extremely knowledgeable. I wouldnt shop anywhere else for a Toyota!
"Catching Up"
05-09-2016
My16-year old car had served me well, but it was time for another car, my mechanic said. The search began. Having arrived early at Berlin City Toyota, I walked around the lot, drawn immediately to a cheery new-leaf green Prius. Metallic lime, maybe chartreuse, its easy to find in a parking lot, and highly visible on the road. Chris Green was helpful throughout my selection of the Prius. Jared Grant patiently led me through leasing the car, a new experience for me. Any wear and tear or appearance changes you are going to pay for, one way or another, in addition to the basic lease charge. Dont be surprised. Did I get a good deal? Who knows? Im not a negotiator. I enjoyed my time with Chris and Jared, a real gift. And I like the Priuss fuel efficiency, though I may never plumb this cars tech-y depths!
"Leasing Experience"
05-07-2016
I conducted my research through the Berlin City Toyota Portland ME website. I was contacted by Chris Green, Sales Guide and met up with him at Berlin City. Chris was accommodating with my option requests and I ended up with a new 2016 RAV4. I am very happy with my RAV4. I want to mention that Charlie Burns was also helpful in ensuring the financial business was processed as quickly as possible. My overall rating is four stars due to the length of time it took for me to drive off the lot with my new RAV4. Outside of a one hour lunch break, I was there close to six hours at Berlin City Toyota. Too long for an old man. Need to improve.
"Very Happy"
Friendly staff- not aggressive. Made the process seamless and did not try to upsell more than I wanted or needed.
"Excellent Buying Experience"
After having been in a car accident during a recent snowstorm and totaling my car, I was not looking forward to this unexpected shopping trip. At Berlin City Toyota, we found Justin Rinfret to be pleasant, efficient, and compassionate as he helped us quickly choose a new car, a used Toyota Corolla. The process was quick and painless, and we appreciate Justins professionalism and knowledgeable help. We liked him so much that weve decided to bring our college-age daughter to see Justin in a few months so that she can purchase her first car at Berlin City.
