Driven Auto of Oak Forest

I strongly recommend that you get a pre-purchase inspection from an independent inspection service before purchasing a used car anywhere. I knew this, but decided to trust this dealer. After viewing the pictures, I chose this car over a similar one at Mich’s Foreign Auto in North Carolina. It was a couple thousand dollars more, but lower mileage, also looked great in the pictures. But this one had the color combination that I wanted. They were waiting on some replacement motors for the soft top. After the parts were installed, we settled on a price, & I purchased with a bank transfer for payment. They shipped the car to me (I live in Northern Kentucky), I looked it over, test drove it & accepted it. After parking it in the garage I lowered the top & noticed the plastic trim around the roll bars was broken up, lots of little pieces laying around inside. So I moved the seats forward & found that all of the trim was broken & cracked badly. The pictures didn’t show this. There was a strong smell of oil inside the car’s interior & trunk area. After about three or four cycles of opening & closing the top, it stopped working. I noticed the oil smell got stronger. With the top down I could see down inside the well where the top is stored there was a puddle of oil. One of the cylinders was leaking. I filled the reservoir and it lasted about three more cycles before running empty. After several attempts to contact them with no response, I’ve decided to post this review. I’m keeping the car because it runs & drives good, & looks good. I feel the dealer shouldn’t have concealed the problems from me, & I should have gotten a better price. I purchased the car (2007 BMW Z4M) in December 2025. I priced replacement parts for the interior trim at over $2,000 new OEM some weren’t available. I found some used on eBay, but they were not in good condition, some cracked or missing mounting tabs, but not as bad as mine. I have opted to try to repair the parts as best as I can. No dealer purchases & offers a vehicle for sale without fully checking the condition of the interior & exterior. If they had revealed the condition of the interior behind the seats, I would have purchased the other vehicle from Mich’s Foreign Auto in NC.

I had an amazing experience working with Carlos on my Tesla Model X purchase. Even with the holidays, he went above and beyond to make everything happen smoothly. The car arrived the day after Christmas, which honestly exceeded my expectations. Carlos expedited the entire purchasing process and coordinated delivery from Illinois to Florida seamlessly. Communication was clear, fast, and professional the whole way through, and he made what could’ve been a stressful long-distance purchase feel effortless. If you’re looking for someone who actually follows through, moves fast, and takes care of their clients, Carlos is your guy. Highly recommend working with him.

Leon was phenomenal! He exuded professionalism remaining attentive from the moment I walked through the doors. After asking what I was looking for he was patient and very informative as I explored my options. When I found my perfect fit he and the driven auto team ensured I was aware of the various features and how to adjust them to meet my needs.

Yazz was the one that helped. I went in a few months ago and he was very polite and professional. Although I was just looking, he wasn't rushing me to make a purchase. I went in yesterday and he remember the car I wanted. Went in about 1hour before closing and he let me test drive it and made the purchase be smooth.

Angelica was amazing to work with! She made the whole process of buying our new truck easy and stress-free. She was super helpful, answered all our questions, and never made us feel pressured. We really appreciate her help and would definitely recommend her! Jim was great to work with during our application and approval process. He was very patient, especially with my anxious husband, and took the time to explain everything clearly. He made the whole process feel smooth and less stressful. We really appreciate his help!
