    Since BMW wants to create fake google accounts to post false 5 star reviews in the review section to make the 1 star reviews disappear, Does the public want to know why AVOID THIS PLACE AT ALL COST and not get serviced here? Here are some pictures attached on how they leave their customers headlights turned on then they clock out from their shift. This is their way to keep you coming here, your battery will drain out over time and you'll find yourself spending more money here. Let's not forget on how all the gas caps are pried open on some of those vehicles. All these photos were taken on separate days between 12:00am - 2:00am. I have so much more dirt / evidence on this dealership but google won't let me upload anymore. Follow my social media for more content.

    Great place to find a new car for you! Located in a convenient location with great amount of parking. Right beside BMW is the MINI Dealership so if you stop by BMW, why not take a stroll around the new Mini's? Service was great, got the parts I ordered in ample time and had a quick look around the dealership. Recommend for all new car owners.

    Honestly, it was not great experiences I had visiting some BMW dealerships in the GTA(I'm near 401 & DVP). I dono if it was the rusted, old & beaten car I drove or my relaxed clothes but most barely acknowledged me and even told me the cars I was looking at couldn't get test drives. I was starting to lean towards something else after months, but I found the car I wanted loaded with almost every option available(really hard to find) just listed, not even pictures available yet or a price. Thought I'd give it 1 more try before ordering an integra Type-S. Emailed Performance BMW without noticing how far it was just to ask the price and when pictures would be available. Probably less than an hour later, Ruiye (RAY) Ding from sales had emailed me fully detailed price quote, official options list, carfax.... AND A VIDEO OF HIM TOURING AROUND THE CAR IN THE RAIN!... on a Saturday morning just for me lol. Honestly, I felt like I gotta checkout the car just for going extra like that and hope my experience would be better. I even nagged him with a bunch email questions about the car I probably could have waited to answer, he promptly responded to each one when I should've thought of a few and sent one email. Drove like 2 and half hours there because traffic was a bit bad, then had to go all the way home... then do it again to pick up the car when it was ready, and I'd do it again. Everyone was amazing from the moment I got there. I was told there's a bunch of cars I can test if I like but not pressured at all, and didn't feel like they didn't want me driving like the other dealers. Test drove an M240i, looked at a few other cars for fun to browse, and I was discussing my purchase shortly after. If anyone I know considers BMW at all, this will be the first place I check. I even have a car dealer friend who said it was a good price in these times with great option list. Also happens to be the biggest car purchase I've made to-date lol but that long drive home solidified my choice(get Stop&Go Cruise Control, whatever car you choose, trust me). At the end of the day, my experience here was more than good enough to change my mind about BMW to get my M240i in Brooklyn Gray(Thundernight is the best, but the Gray gets better the more i see it). Great experience. I even got some free sunflower seeds from Bruce haha. Thanks to Ruiye (RAY) Ding, Bruce Redwood, Michael Demers, Jon Pagendam for helping me have a great experience. And I'd bet your experience would be similar to mine if you happen to get other workers at this dealer when shopping. Pics of car will be added when I get time to take some good ones.

    My experience at Performance BMW was excellent. Not only did Joe Primerano spend the time to give me a great deal on my new vehicle. He made sure to introduce me to all the great Staff at Performance BMW. I would recommend anyone to this dealership for their next BMW.

    Awesome experience with the team at Performance BMW. Everyone (all of the staff) there are so nice. Free cupcake! LOL Joelene P. on the sales team is fantastic to deal with and patient with busy out of town clients like myself. Jon P. the Finance Manager was the easiest guy to work with and Mike D. the Delivery Specialist walked me through the car and helped set up the MyBMW app. I love my X4 and they made it happen. Thank you. Al.

    Could not put into words how happy we are with our new purchase. The staff at Performance BMW were very helpful especially our sales rep Jansin who was also very courteous and professional. He answered all our questions and left us with a smooth and awesome experience overall. Will definitely be coming back again in the future! Thanks again!

    I am so thrilled to share my amazing experience buying my first BMW from Performance BMW - St. Catharines. I have always dreamed of owning a BMW and the X3 M40i was the perfect model for me. The staff here were so helpful, friendly and professional. They made the whole process smooth and hassle-free. I want to give a special shout-out to Joe P., Mike B., David H., Jason P., Michael D., for their outstanding service and support. They went above and beyond to make me feel welcome and satisfied. They are the best team I have dealt with and I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a BMW. Thank you so much for making my dream come true!

    I was very impressed with the quality service at Performance BMW on my recent vehicle purchase! The entire team went above and beyond my expectations, always very prompt, knowledgeable, and helpful from order date to vehicle delivery. I ordered my vehicle in August, and my Sales Consultant Mike updated me frequently on the vehicle production status and was very attentive to every detail during the entire purchase experience from order to delivery. Denise in Financial Services was extremely accommodating arranging the sales contract, various dealer-installed products, and optional equipment, and had everything prepared on delivery day which made the process very efficient. Whenever I visit the dealership, I am approached by several team members offering refreshments or asking if I need any assistance, not a pushy sales pitch just genuine care and concern for my needs. The facility is clean with very good ambiance, and I enjoy having a quality cup of coffee and browsing the latest vehicles whenever I stop by. This is my fifth vehicle purchase through Performance BMW/MINI, and I feel like a VIP every time whether I am buying certified pre-owned or new, or having my vehicle serviced. I would highly recommend this business.

    We could not be happier with the purchase of our X3 (demo). Was it worth the drive from Kingston to St. Catharines to deal with Performance BMW? Absolutely!!! We received excellent service from Ray, Bruce, Jesse and Jon. Even though there was a bit of a hiccup with a missing door latch cover, that was dealt with promptly and efficiently. We received good value for our trade-in and were treated exceptionally well in all aspects of the purchase.

    DO NOT PURCHASE A VEHICLE OR DO ANY SERVICE AT THIS DEALERSHIP. This is the worst dealership I’ve ever met. They’ll charge you for everything, even the existed problem before you bought it. I bought a BMW 640i GT last year, it’s keeping appearing problems. So I have to go to the service every few months. The most terrible thing is there’s a upper trim damaged before I bought it, they promised me they’ll fix it. Then I’ve booked many appointments for the service, they never fixed it but charge me for the labor fee. Last week, they finally fixed this problem and charged me over $700. The sales department supposed to pay for this fee, but when I find them they are blaming me for paying without telling them so they refuse to refund me. And when I asked the service department, they literally told me no refund with no reason! This happened with the knowledge of both managers! Now I have to ask BMW Canada and consumers ' association for a reasonable solution.

    Excellent service from Ray and Jason from beginning to end. They took my trade-in at a good price. Allowed me to test-drive a couple of cars and ran some numbers to see where my point of comfort was. They made car-shopping relatively stress-free, easy and enjoyable. Lots of choices available but don't wait too long to seal the deal. This is a premium spot where they offer great deals and the car you want today may not be there the day after. It can get super busy sometimes but that's just the ransom of their success.

    Buying our beautiful new BMW convertible was such a pleasant experience. Mike Chiera, our sales person was a joy to deal with, no pressure at all, and he went the extra mile to accommodate all of our wishes. If you are ready for your dream car, I highly suggest that you contact Mike. Truly enjoying the BMW experience! Kathleen Mariani

    Yesterday, we had the pleasure to meet with Jason regarding a vehicle purchase. He was very kind and easy to talk to. Jason answered all of our questions and made sure that all the vehicle pick information we had requested were noted to have a smooth transition for pick up. The Sales Manager Christine was also amazing to deal with as well, very sweet and didn't feel like she was trying pressure us to buy anything extra. Very honest on their recommendations regarding warranties as well. It was surprising to see when car sales very competitive and usually you feel like you are another sale but at BMW Performance in St Catherine's we felt like we were talking to friends. We highly recommend Jason to anyone looking to purchase a new vehicle. Thanks for making such a stressful task so easy. Hope 2022 Is a bright one for all of you.

    Had an amazing experience and bought the perfect first car for myself. Big thank you to Francisco Garcia and Joe Primerano who helped me find the best and most affordable car for my situation. I came in one day and let them know I was looking for a car, gave them my specifications and price range, then within a few days they called me with good news! Francisco found a car that fit my description and hopes, he was so helpful and gave me all the information I needed on the car. Joe then ensured I got the best price possible, which made it impossible for me to turn down the opportunity. I always get treated amazingly at this location and I appreciate the time and consideration taken by all the staff!

    I would like to thank all of the staff at performance BMW for making car shopping so fast, easy and very convenient. We saw a car we loved and Thursday and we were able to drive away in it by Friday. Denise who took care of all our financing for the vehicle went over and above to take care of everything in such a professional and friendly matter. She was an absolute pleasure to work with. Joe our car salesman was patient and very knowledgeable with all of our questions and treated us like family. I will always highly recommend this dealership and will be back!

    Performance BMW St. Catherine's has the most amazing customer service ever. I bought a BMW x5 plug in hybrid from these guys and they went all out, and way beyond to ensure that I got the vehicle I wanted at the good price. Ruiye was my salesman and Denise Michaud was my liason. Both were absolutely amazing to work with. I have to single out Denise for being one of the most understanding and helpful liason ever. Never felt better spending my 💰😄. Denise you are amazing! Love this place! Would definitely buy from these guys again! Service is unparalleled. From seeing the car online to driving the car home was a wonderful experience end to end.

    From start to finish Joe Primerano answered all my questions and let me try four different models. I have always bought X3’s and X5 but I decided on the 5 series sedan. The service at Performance BMW is excellent and Mindy did an excellent job in explaining all the features of my new vehicle. Looking forward to spring and summer driving! Thanks to all

  • 5/5 Bilal A. 1 year ago on Google
    Great experience as soon as I walked in from start to finish. Jason Proppe and the financial services manager Christine Handley were so kind and willing to help!! They were really professional from the start of the process till the end. Constant communication.. always ready to talk and answer questions. I would definitely recommend Performance BMW to anyone who wants to buy or lease a BMW. Also, would like to give a special thanks to Bill the shuttle representative that came and picked me and my brother in Mississauga to take delivery of our vehicle in St Catherines.

    I had an excellent experience buying a used car from Performance BMW. I live in Brampton and I’d been searching for a BMW around the GTA for a few weeks and had even visited other dealerships but the customer experience at Performance BMW was superior. I met with Jason who was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly and made the entire process easy and seamless. He wasn’t pushy and ensured that all my questions were answered and I was comfortable. I would highly recommend working with Jason and Performance BMW as a whole.

    We had such an amazing experience purchasing our new used BMW M340 - don't know where to begin! We drove from Toronto and was so worth the drive to St. Catherines! Let's start with the initial contact - a phone call to Joe Primerano to inquire about the car - what a wonderful man! He was open, honest and so helpful from the start. He made us feel so comfortable, we actually put a deposit on the vehicle before even seeing it. We really appreciate Jesse Young offering a fair price for our trade in vehicle, he met our expectations, as our trade in was in pristine condition. We went in to see the car the next day and the environment was pleasantly surprising, warm and inviting, everyone was so friendly and helpful. The BMW dealers in the GTA have such a corporate vibe. We met with Joe P. and again he's such a super friendly, fun, helpful, amazing man! He helped us with all our many inquiries and questions and even took us to the shop to talk to the service tech (Boris) who did the CPO inspection on the car. Boris was very informative and provided a lot of information about the condition of the car, which very much assured us that we were purchasing a great car. The GM, Mike Bewley got involved with the sale, and assisted with answering questions and resolving concerns. Usually you don't see a General Manager anywhere and he was there front and centre to help us out - amazing! Jody Helsby, detailer extraodinaire! What an incredible man he is! He went above and beyond to make sure our car looked brand new, like it just came off the factory line. And last by definitely not least - Denise Michaud, Financial Services Mgr - she is efficient, knowledgeable and has your best interest at heart (pun intended - she even helped with our interest rate!) She was detailed, organized and very thorough and exceeded our expectations. Other names worth mentioning - Bruce Redwood, Sales Mgr & Michael Demers, Delivery Specialist. The overall experience from start to finish was incredible and left us in aww. We will recommended this dealer to all our friends and family, and already have. Final note - this one's for you Mike B - we normally remove the dealer plate cover/badging from our cars, but this time we are keeping it on and happy and proud to promote PERFORMANCE BMW. Thank you all for such a great experience! R&S
