Customer Testimonials
Just made our purchase with the wonderful help of Kelsey! Excellent customer service and kindness. Also greatly appreciate the speediness of the whole process!
Purchased a used BMW X5 and was pleased with the deal we had negotiated, until I found out when I was signing the paperwork that the car had a lemon title. I was absolutely livid this hadn’t been disclosed earlier and I should have just walked away, since the price was about $10k over what a car with a lemon title was worth. If I hadn’t been an informed buyer, I feel like they would have kept it all on the DL and brushed it off as a minor detail. I generally keep my cars for 5 years or ... Read More

Our experience here was great! Kelsey was amazing! She was extremely helpful and friendly! Definitely recommend car shopping here!
I purchased my first BMW after my Honda was hit and totaled. We had a couple of communication issues during the financing process, but I love the car and in the end, the dealership made it right.
Good experience from start to end. Special shoutout to Mike, the Sales GM. Mike and his team were very engaged and transparent on all aspects of the purchase.
Great buying experience. No pressure, friendly staff.
Kelsey was a very good saleswoman , and helped me a lot . Got me a really good deal and was really patient with me .
Had a great experience buying an M3 from them. They were able to secure me a good allocation. Only negative is their pushy finance manager who was in disbelief I wouldn’t want all the extended warranties despite it not meeting my needs and rudely hanging up on our zoom call. He also needs to learn a little bit about M3s before trying to sell me the product. He couldn’t believe that the OEM brake pads on BMW M3s produce a lot of brake dust (that’s a well known fact). He kept trying to sell me ... Read More

I have been here at least 3 times to resolve an ongoing special issue with my car over the past year. Dave and Kayla have been very professional and willing to listen to picky pestering customers like me with superhero like strength. I also appreciate Robert for making sure all steps necessary were taken to resolve the special case my car has. Much appreciated.
Working with Kelsey, Mike G, and Abdul was great, good experience overall and definitely will be back whenever its time.
Recently purchased a new BMW from Sam Leman BMW of Bloomington. Professional sales approach made it a very positive experience. I would not hesitate to do business with them in the future.
We drove over 2 1/2 hours to purchase a vehicle. We purchased it before we ever got to see it because the staff especially Kelsey Phelps was so friendly and answered all of our questions with videos and pictures of the vehicle. When we arrived we were treated with nothing but kindness. I highly recommend for any vehicle purchase
Baily was great! Mike was great! Easy negotiation and vehicle was as expected. Would recommend
Today we worked with Alan, the Tech, from this dealership to better understand all the technology in our new vehicle. He spent 2 hours listening to our questions and concerns about settings and adjustments to our vehicle. He was extremely knowledgeable and patient in solving for our needs. He encouraged us to contact him in the future if we had any additional questions. Alan is a great advantage for this dealership with respect to customer experience and customer loyalty. Thanks for the great service Alan!
Huge shoutout to Baily at BMW of Bloomington for helping me get into my 2020 BMW M235i! From the start, he treated me with respect and really took the time to help me find the best car that fit my budget and what I was looking for. He worked hard to make the whole process smooth and helped me get accepted into a car I genuinely love. You can tell he actually cares about his customers and wants to see them leave happy.
Also, none of this would’ve been possible without the help of his manager Kimberly. She was ... Read More

My reviews tend to be more like short stories, so bear with me.
A few days ago while moving my oldest son home from college for the summer, we blew a tire about 10 miles outside of Bloomington at about 8pm. We were on the interstate with a car so full of my son’s stuff there was no way to get to the spare tire.
We had the car towed to the BMW dealership, locked it up, and caught an Uber to a hotel a half mile down the road.
The next morning I called the dealership and spoke with ... Read More

Courteous and prompt service.
The General Manager Mike and associate Abdul made the process very smooth and efficient. Go for it!
I was looking to buy an M2 and no dealers local to me had any stock, so I expanded my search and found a gorgeous M2 CS listed with Sam Leman BMW. I sent an inquiry online, and Baily was promptly in touch to provide me with a walkaround video and let me know the car was available and able to be shipped to me in Indiana.
Baily was responsive and got me a fair deal on a hard-to-find, limited run car. During the deal, I worked with Mike and Jeremiah, who were both also great to work with. The ... Read More

I wanted to buy my desired BMW. Kelsey was my consultant who did an excellent job in making me feel less anxious and helped me in choosing what was best for me. She was very kind and friendly and honest. I highly recommend her if you ever plan to come to Bloomington and see the variety !
Excellent Dealership. Completed Purchase and Trade in remotely. Management, Financing, Salesperson, and even Transportation of the Cars was top notch. Highly recommended!
First car buying experience. I would really like to emphasize how helpful Mike, the general sales manager, was in the whole process. He worked to address any issues and made this experience much smoother! Thanks as well to Abdul who was the salesman for the vehicle. 👍
Jeremy always goes above and beyond to help his customers!!!
Exceptional experience-yes, it can be true even when you buy a car! Bruce & Mike were great: very patient & professional during my first online purchase of a car. It can be a bit daunting & time consuming but, within a week, the paperwork was completed (with knowledge I gained from Cargirl via tiktok) & now I'm just waiting for shipment. If you haven't tried online purchase & you're on the fence, give it a shot-it's worth it & you may get a better deal than an in-person visit!
We have visited BMW of Bloomington and had a great experience with Kelsey, ending up leaving with a car. super excited and highly recommending working with Kelsey!
I had a great experience here! Kelsey was friendly and extremely helpful. It was a quick and easy process. If you are in the market for a BMW I would highly recommend BMW of Bloomington!
Bought my car here last year. Had a decent experience buying the car, not really any issues other than the salesman not telling me the car I was supposed to be looking at was not for sale anymore and showed me something else. Ended up liking and buying it anyways.
Fast forward to almost a year of ownership. Car breaks down on the way home from work late at night. BMW roadside spends 1.5 hours trying to find me a tow truck without any luck. Abandon my car and get picked up, becomes 6 hour ordeal. Get car towed to dealership the ... Read More

BMW of Bloomington has NEVER steered (get it..LOL) me wrong! My latest visit to the service department, was handled above and beyond my expectations! The Service Manager, Jeremy Goad made sure my issues were addressed immediately and more importantly and from a thorough inspection - a whole lot cheaper than originally anticipated! Super Happy with the team at BMW of Bloomington!!
Fantastic and seemless transaction, knowledgeable staff. Very professional start to finsh. I have purchased dozens of cars over my life and this was definitely the best buying experience!
Great service! Great advisor! Staff was knowledgeable, friendly, and more than accommodating to their clients needs and concerns. Highly recommended
I had a great experience at this dealership. I thought that the fact that I was buying a used vehicle that I might not be treated like a buyer coming in for a new car but that was not the case!
I was able to quickly make an appointment for a test drive using their online system. When I arrived, they were prepared with the vehicle pulled to the front for me and we immediately got on the road for a test drive. The sales team didn't put pressure on us at any point in the process and was ... Read More

Thank you very much! The experience exceeded our expectations.
This was the first experience purchasing a BMW. Wow... we were impressed. The cars are amazing, however what sold us on BMW was the service provided by our sales associate, Bruce Spencer and the sales manager, Mike Gargano. They made this experience so pleasant and enjoyable... almost like we were working with family or friends. True care in service and help with navigating the process.
I was very impressed by our sales consultant, Bruce Spencer. He was very knowledgeable and spent a significant amount of time with us explaining about the vehicle and purchase options.
After spending a lot of painful time in other dealerships finally found the right guy. Bruce Spencer was awesome, answered all our questions and took care of everything. Been buying cars for 40 years, best buying experience we ever had. Highly recommended.
We had a great experience purchasing our new BMW at the Leman BMW dealership in Bloomington. It's always a pleasure working with the Leman team.
Their delivery service was amazing and efficient.
I had an outstanding experience from start to finish. I worked with Bruce Spencer, and he couldn't have been more professional, responsive, or accommodating. Bruce managed every detail of the buying experience and made it very easy. He did what he said he was going to do and even picked me up at the train station and greeted me in the lobby when I arrived. In the dealership, I needed to take a meeting during the signing process, and Bruce made sure I had private space. Bruce went above and beyond taking care of every detail and making it ... Read More

My husband and I had an excellent car buying experience with Bruce Spencer. He was extremely knowledgeable and prompt to respond to our questions. We love our new vehicle!
Working with Ernest is great. I have purchased multiple vehicles from him and he is always incredibly knowledgeable and helpful.
Everyone at the dealership was great but Ernest was great to work with, made the process smooth and easy. He was able to get me the numbers I was looking for, and made the deal happen! Made the trip from out of state and was well worth it. Ask for Ernest Williams if you want to leave with a smile!
We had a wonderful experience with Bruce Spencer at BMW as we always do. He is professional, honest, and extremely knowledgeable. I would strongly recommend BMW of Bloomington and Bruce to anyone looking for a new or used vehicle.
Very easy to work with!
I had a great experience with BMW of Bloomington. Ernest, my salesman, was very helpful and professional.
Excellent cutomer service.
Bruce was the best. He is knowledgable, low pressure and fair. Highly recommend!
I had the pleasure of being greeted by a guy named Ernest hopefully im spelling that correctly. He showed us around gave us facts and was very friendly and polite, not once did i feel like i was being judged and he made me feel like i could afford everything on the lol. Customer service was 20/10
Thank you Ernest - great service!
Excellent responsiveness from the sales team, they went the extra mile to find me the perfect 3 series I was looking for. Helped me with options for lease vs buy. Virtual finance experience was a little clunky from a communication standpoint, but great to do all the paperwork digitally.
My salesman "Greg Franklin" was awesome
We recently purchased an X5 from Ernest and the team. The team was great to deal with, and Ernest was very responsive at every message and phone call. Ernest was very accommodating when it came to scheduling a test drive and also the sale. I'm definitely looking forward to continuing the relationship with the dealership into the future.
BMW of Bloomington IL was outstanding w/ great customer service. Shout out to Greg Franklin as our Client Advisor for doing a great job on a very busy Saturday. Thank you!
I’m so happy that I decided to go back to driving a BMW. My 2025 X3 is amazing!! Ernest and JP rock! The process was a little rocky but everything worked out in the end. Thank you!!
I recently purchased a new BMW from Sam Leman BMW of Bloomington, and the experience exceeded my expectations from start to finish.

Great process, Shawn was super helpful in answering all my questions. Price was fair. Would definitely do business with Shawn and BMW Bloomington again.
Ernest Williams was great and I would purchase through him again. I wired the full payment in advance. I wanted no hassle pick up 4 days later. I spent 2 hours on the computer and phone with finance trying to upsell me $15000 of additional coverage.Thats 30% over what I paid for car. Picked the car up after 4 hr drive. Process was perfect. Ernest Williams was waiting for me at the rental car place. I signed the tax and licence documents and was done in 5 minutes!!
I had a great experience at BMW of Bloomington purchasing my new car. Greg was excellent to work with, and his managers Nikita and Kimberly made the process smooth and enjoyable. Highly recommend!

This was my smoothest car buying process yet. Everyone at this dealership have been extremely kind. I worked directly with Ernest and he was nothing but a pleasure to work with!
We came to BMW of Bloomington after seeing a pre-owned Jeep Grand Cherokee online. Greg Franklin worked with us to get the deal we needed to fit our budget. He really went to bat for us on our trade-in. Greg is a great guy who is friendly, knowledgeable and created a no-pressure environment. He listened to what we needed and made it happen. We highly recommend working with Greg on your next purchase from BMW of Bloomington.
Greg my sales rep. was by far the best sales rep my family and I have worked with during our car search. From the moment we met him, he made us feel comfortable and never once tried to oversell anything. He was patient, genuine, and took the time to answer all of our questions without any pressure. Over text, email, call or in person.
What really stood out was how he went out of his way to help. he stayed late to meet us after hours for a test drive and made sure the car was in the best possible ... Read More

Absolutely loved working with Greg on purchasing my pre-owned Tesla. I came from out of state, and it was 100% worth it. The team discovered a crack in the windshield the day before I arrived and immediately arranged for it to be replaced — no surprises. We handled all the details through email and text, which made the process incredibly convenient. Zero pressure from the sales staff, and even the finance department wasn’t pushy — a rare find. Highly recommend BMW of Bloomington!
I had an excellent experience working with Ernest Williams. He is knowledgeable, patient, and truly listened to my needs without pushing me into a decision. He made the entire process smooth and stress-free, from test driving to ordering a car to final paperwork. I appreciated his honesty, transparency, and attention to detail. It’s clear he genuinely care about his customers. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy BMW/any car for that matter
Greg was very helpful and professional, I would recommend working with Greg.
I found the exact car I had been searching for and sent an internet inquiry to BMW of Bloomington. Fortunately it was Trent Bankes who contacted me to let me know the car was still available. My only problem was the dealership is 1,700 miles away from me in Florida. I have never purchased a car site unseen without driving it and was extremely nervous- especially considering the car I was purchasing (M850i Convertible). Trent was patient and reassuring and worked closely with me to ensure all my questions were answered. I never felt pressured to make a decision and ... Read More

Worked with Greg on my pre-owned purchase and he was very supportive. Was very knowledgeable and not high pressure. Allowed me to make my decision with all the information over the weekend. Would recommend him to anyone wanting a car from BMW of Bloomington.
Bought a 2023 BMW X7 this week. I am so grateful for the dealership and especially Trent the sales person and Shawn the general manager. Trent was VERY responsive to my texts emails and calls…. Far too many in my opinion. When he didn’t know the answer to my question he found it out very quickly and got back with me.I had a 7 Hour drive to get down to purchase the vehicle, during that drive there were some changes to the financing which made it difficult briefly. They jumped through many hoops and got it done by the time ... Read More

Amazing service and so helpful! My sister and I had to get our car towed here overnight. I’m still amazed at how prompt, accommodating and caring they were. The concierge driver was so nice and made multiple trips to our hotel. They were able to get us up and running before we even had to check out! Couldn’t be more grateful, especially considering the situation we were in. They also quoted us a fair price for the services.
Greg had a great personality and he helped me get the car I wanted. What more could you want?
We recently had the opportunity to visit this BMW location to purchase an X1, and it was a fantastic experience from the moment we arrived at the dealership.

I recently purchased a used BMW X5 from Ernest and had a fantastic experience. I visited several dealerships in the area looking for a luxury SUV, and the only place I really felt valued was at BMW.

Great service from Rachel Gaines, right from the start of the sale. She was wonderful to work with from the back and forth of calls to when I showed up to finish the deal. I also had the pleasure of working with Ernest Williams. Ernest answered all my questions about the car and helped me with syncing my phone. Great job by both of them!!
I recently leased a BMW X5 from BMW of Bloomington—all the way from Miami—and wanted to share my experience. I had the pleasure of working with Greg, who was incredibly professional, responsive, and transparent throughout the entire process.
Leasing a vehicle from out of state can be challenging, but Greg and his manager, Nikita, made it remarkably smooth and efficient. We encountered a minor hiccup with the financing department, but it was handled quickly and professionally.

Greg was great to deal with. He is not a pressure salesman. Down to earth and respected our time. Will do business with Greg in the future. The new General sales manager Nikita was great to deal with as well. Although new, he showed he is focused on customer satisfaction. Great experience overall !
Ernest was very communicative throughout the whole buying process even though I was purchasing out of state. Even stayed late to finish the deal and took care of a problem that came up right after the car purchase. Would recommend!
My experience purchasing the car from BMW Bloomington was excellent. The process was very quick and professional. Ken and Greg were excellent in guiding me.
As much as I don’t like car-buying, the experience was smooth, and my new BMW is great.
