Formula 1 Motors

I would like to say these guys have changed my hole outlook on buying a car. They had me in and out so quick no hassle no waiting hours. I came to the lot when I saw the 2012 Yukon in the back the day before. So I parked in front and walked to the back I was there for about 5 or 10 minutes looking at the truck. Patrick comes out and lets me know the car is open and feel free to open it up and check it out. We then talked and he told me the process. I then asked him how long will it take to do all the paper work he said you should be out of here no more than an hour. He was right got in filled out the forms. There was no pressure no going back in forth. We got the deal done. They also took my Excursion in on a trade and gave me top dollar for it. Best car buying experience ever. If you are looking for a used car this is the place. They even filled the tank up for me. I will be back there to get a car for my wife next. Thanks to Patrick and David

I was recommended to this dealership by a good friend of mine who also made a purchase from them. I came to Alex looking for a car for my dad. Alex had several selections in his lot and also showed me other selections they have in their other lot down the street. I found the one I wanted for my dad, but told Alex that I wanted my brother and my mechanic check out the car first. With no hesitation, Alex agreed and said take the car to your brother and your mechanic. That really made me feel at ease as I felt no pressure in making the purchase. The day after, I came back and bought the car, and traded my dad’s old car (which I could not believe the offer Alex made… it was awesome!). I was really excited as I know that my dad would be so thrilled and happy for this birthday present. When Alex learned that the purchase was a birthday gift, he was sweet enough to put a huge and nice ribbon on the car… to make it even more special when I deliver it to my dad. Alex, we are so happy with our purchase and we couldn’t be more grateful with your assistance in making the process as quick and hassle free as possible. Had I learned about your dealership and excellent accommodation and customer service prior to making my own car purchase else where, I probably would’ve gotten my BMW from you too. Best believe, I would recommend you to anyone I know. Thanks again. :)

First off, there are 3 Formula One Motors (that I know of), 2 in Hayward, one in San Jose. The car I wanted (BMW) was off of the San Jose lot, however; it was challenging for me to drive out to SJ with my schedule being tight. I went over to the Hayward location (25 697 Mission Blvd) and sat down with Alex to see if he has anything similar in his lot. Alex manages this location and is such a pleasant man. Unfortunately, he does not have anything similar to what I have my eyes set on. I also mentioned to him that I have a trade in and to my surprise, after having been to several dealerships (large and small), Alex offered me the highest value for my car (an older BMW)! He contacted the SJ location to have the car I wanted dropped off at the Hayward location for me to test drive. This shows how accomodating he is. While that was a nice offer, I refused to make that happen as I did not want that kind of inconvenience to anyone nor did I want to feel obligated to purchase from them, and told him that I would just find the time to check out the vehicle where it’s located. Alex then told me that If I do decide to make the purchase out in SJ, he would be more than happy to perform all paper work and documentations at his office where I’m closer to make it easy for me.
So, I went over to the SJ location, met up with A.J. and Ali, two wonderful gentlemen who I had a pleasure meeting. I test drove the car I wanted with Ali. He did his very best educating me of the vehicle and I appreciated it. Ali is a salesman, not a mechanic so I did not expect him to know every little detail of what’s right or wrong with the vehicle. If I wanted a thorough check on the car, I would’ve brought my own mechanic, which F1 welcomes as well. To make the long story short, I did make the purchase/​trade in, after a couple of days of debating whether to buy it or not after I test drove it. The car felt like in great condition, mechanically, and there were no major visible wear and tear of the vehicle. The car was pretty much new, as it appeared and car was still under warranty, had it checked out at a BMW dealership and they actually told me it was a good buy as they did not find anything major or defective with the car. As promised, Alex did deliver and performed all necessary documentations at his office and made my experience such a breeze and painless. I’ve purchased cars from known/​large dealerships and independent ones. In my own experience, of course I bite into the nice location, nicely suited salesman and high class facilities that large dealerships offer. Granted, they have more selections, probably higher reputable vehicles compared to the smaller ones; however, I was on a tight budget. I was looking for a well-​maintained, clean and nice looking car, no pressure buying experience, accomodating staff that actually listens to your situation and not just concerned about selling a vehicle, makes recommendation but not pushes a transaction. All that, I found at Formula One, specifically with Alex. The way I see it, if you’re smart you’ll know when someone is just out to get your money. With Alex, I never felt that way. It appears he prides himself with making you happy with your purchase, and that’s exactly what he delivered.
I can’t speak for anyone who’s had a not so great experience with them. I can only speak for my own. And so far, I mean every word. Thank you, Alex… it was such a pleasure!

I came here a few months ago looking for a srt8 and I wasnt ready to buy one at the time. I talked to alex and he was very cooperative. He answered all my questions, helped me out, and overall was a good guy. About a week ago he got me the exact srt8 that i wanted and i immediately fell in love with the car. The car ran great and i was overall very pleased with the vehicle. I would definitely recommend all my friends and family to this place.

this place was great they have really nice cars very professional and they work with people with not so good credit they make sure that their customer leave happy and stay happy !!! and it did take all day they really understood me as a 1^st time buyer Thanks ALEX FOR YOUR HELP I’LL BE BACK SOON ENOUGH FOR MY NEXT CAR!

Very pleased with how we were treated when we purchased a car from Formula 1 Motors. All I can say is it makes a big difference when a person tries to do whatever they can to make sure your happy. No pressure, great attitude– great experience. Alex was excellent he helped with credit problems and all other concerns such as the car fax, I really love him for the great job he did. I am super excited about my new srt8 charger that I purchased. I’ve been driving it all over the place and bragging about the great deal that I got. This is my new favorite and only place for any car purchases and I recommend everyone to not look anywhere else if you wanna buy a car come straight here.

My 2 brothers and I came to Formula One motors to take a look at a couple cars. They had a really nice selection of vehicle. We ended up buying 2 cars from alex. We bought a 2008 dodge charger srt8 and a 2006 mercedes c55 AMG. Alex is an exellent person to deal with when it comes to buying the vehicles you will keep refering family. Will definitely be coming back and recomend my family and friends. p

I bought a Caddy from Formula 1 Motors back in February. It was in FLAWLESS condition both inside and out, and what really attracted me to the car was the fact that the miles were SO low. Anyway, I called up Alex and let him know that I was interested in the vehicle. He told me to come down and take a look at the car and we can start from there. I did just that and within a few days I was able to drive off the lot in my new Caddy :)
One thing I really love about Formula 1 is their customer service! They really do go ABOVE AND BEYOND to make sure that the customers’ needs are met. If you’re looking for a new whip and dont feel like getting the «run around» then stop on by to Formula 1 motors to make it happen… 5 stars is for the HASSLE FREE buying experience :)

Cannot even begin to express my gratitude for everything Alex did. As a first time buyer (with no credit keep in mind) getting a dealership to take a chance on you without having to give up your first born child, is nearly impossible. After a long hard day of searching and searching, I stumbled upon formula 1. I was very irritated and was ready to give up. That’s when Alex came in. I explained to him the situation, my frustrations, and my lack of knowledge of pretty much what I was doing. Any typical used car salesman would have seen me as the perfect victim, a walking dollar sign if you will. But not Alex. Alex was extremely honest, up front, and helped make sure that I was not only going to get the best deal financially, but that I would be satisfied. I ended up falling in love with a little ford ranger truck. Alex worked within my budget and made sure I got EXACTLY what I was looking for. He backs all his cars with a verbal warranty, and he is a man of his word. Not only did he get me a great deal and insurance plan, a week after purchasing the car, the engine light came on, Alex told me to bring it in, and FIXED the problem
FOR FREE. AND gave me a temporary car in the process. This kind of customer service is extremely rare and I appreciated it so much. Alex is a man of his words, he knows exactly what he’s talking about. He’s truthful, up front, and BELIEVES in his product. THAT is an amazing salesman. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to get a car. He is a dream come true. Thank you so much Alex!!!

This is a long over-​due review… I just read the reviews and the good one’s pretty much smell «planted» This is my experience: in March (2014) I bought used Dodge Durango, besides the fact that I waited 45 mins. for a salesman to wait on me, I have nothing but «props» for these guys. They paid for a repair that was needed, They got me the pymt. I wanted, (credit good, income low) the GM (salesman’s brother) even transferred my registration so all I had to pay was like $ 16…for me, they were good

I recently purchased a 2011 Charger and I love it! Alex helped me with the financing and I got a really good rate!!! I’ve been wanting this car forever and I’m so happy I finally got it especially from this dealership. He was friendly and made me feel very comfortable not like he was trying to get over on me. I would defiantly recommend to my friends and family. Felt like I got a good deal!

Alex is honest, up front, and worked to get us the best deal he could. We came to him after having a really bad experience at Hayward Honda where they tried to up sell us on a car we didn’t even want. Alex listens to you and he really will work with you to get you the best deal he can.

What a great experience. Alex worked with us and offered us more than we expected. I left there feeling like I got a great deal and not like I got taken advantage of. Alex offered to wax the van and detail it, only to have it rain when we picked it up. He offered to do it again when the rain stopped. Great service, down to earth. Would definitely recommend to family and friends.

Thank you Alex for the great service. Will buy my next car from you also. I love my 2007 Lincoln navigator. Thanks for all your help

I just bought my 2007 BMW 3 series and had the best experience ever! Alex listened to what my needs were and was not pushy. I was a first time buyer and he was able to get me financing with an excellent rate. I would recommend this dealership to anyone who wants a good quality car for a fair price!

Scam artist they sold me a car that they hot wired to work and refused to pay for repairs until I found the mechanic who gave me all the info about the scam they pulled

3 weeks ago I was in need of a car after wrecking my G35. Since I live in Hayward, I took a cruise down Mission Blvd just looking at cars. Saw exactly what I was looking for at Formula 1 Motors. Went inside and talked to David about buying the G35. Didn’t even have to haggle for a low price. He took off $ 1000.00 from asking price and I purchased the car within an hour. David is a great guy to deal with and very polite and not pushy like some sales people are. He really took care of me and I appreciate doing business with him. Will definitely go to Formula 1 Motors first when in the market for another car. And, its fun to play with his dog Buddy while doing the paperwork. Buddy would also make a great salesman if he could only talk.

Worst private dealer experience ever. They were not up front with their prices and transaction process. Stay away and look for a more honest and customer oriented dealer or private seller. Their sales people are very shady looking and all they are into are making a buck and getting their inventory off the lot.

The most fun experience you can have in purchasing a vehicle. The staff is very honest, courteous and professional. They definitely take their time to understand your needs and very creative on proposing solutions to achieve it. I highly recommend them.
