This review would have been either one star or five stars depending on which employees represented the dealership.
This was not just another car purchase for our family. It was a nostalgic purchase to create a modern-day tribute to Herbie the Love Bug. My son has loved Herbie since he was five years old, and now he has a five-year-old son of his own. We had been searching for a very specific Volkswagen Beetle 1.8T Convertible to recreate those wonderful childhood memories, and Bud Clary had exactly the car we were looking for.
Unfortunately, our experience with salesman Michael Caretti ... Read More

Tay and Gary made this one of the easiest dealership transactions I've ever had. Tay was an outstanding sales consultant, and Gary was great to work with as well. The process was transparent, low-pressure, and refreshingly free of the typical dealership games. Pricing was excellent, upselling was minimal, and customer service was top-notch. Most importantly, we ended up with the right car for us. Highly recommended.
The Staff here was amazing and Rodney is super personable. Unfortunate we couldn’t come to an agreement on a car but, I appreciate how much they were willing to work on it with me. Great environment!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had a great experience working with Clyde Warehime. We showed up early for our appointment to look at a car, and he was more than willing to help us right away. Clyde was incredibly friendly, patient, and never made us feel rushed. He took the time to answer every question we had and made sure we understood everything throughout the process. His positive attitude and willingness to help made the experience enjoyable and stress-free. We truly appreciated how kind and accommodating he was. We would definitely recommend Clyde to anyone looking for a great car-buying experience!
Due to some unfortunate life events I had to sell my Passat and look at getting into a new vehicle. The Bud Clary VW Team were able to help me out and also made sure at the end of the day things fit within my price range. I met quite a few of their team and not only was everyone happy to see me, they all were looking out for me.
Great experience buying a car from Mike Sylvan at Bud Clary. Really pleased with his forthrightness and integrity.
Decided to go to VW Auburn after terrible customer experience at VW Puyallup. We already knew what vehicle we wanted. Andrew M met us outside and listened as we told him our specifications. He had just the car we asked for. The whole process was seamless with fair negotiations. Really glad we decided to come here. Good job Andrew, we will definitely be back!!!
My 2nd time finance and received wonderful customer service and support they worked with my credit score and helped find affordable, reliable, safe for my family etc
Mike was absolutely amazing helping my son buy his BMW. From the very first phone call, he was helpful, kind, professional, and had great communication the entire time. As a mom, he is literally a mother’s dream to work with when helping your child through a big purchase like this. The whole process with Mike was smooth from beginning to end, and you can tell he genuinely cares about people, not just making a sale.
Fast forward to Tyler in finance he was nice overall, but the experience changed a bit when it came to the warranty sales. I ... Read More

I had a great experience at this car dealership. Mustafa was very friendly and patient. He answered all our questions clearly and made sure I understood every step of the process. The selection of vehicles was good, and everything was clean and well-maintained. What I appreciated most was how honest and straightforward they were about pricing and financing. He was no surprises, and he worked with me to get a deal that fit my budget. The whole process was smooth and quicker than I expected. I would definitely recommend this dealership to anyone looking for a reliable car and stree-free ... Read More

I came in for a Volkswagen safety recall to replace my airbag. The team contacted me, scheduled everything, and made the whole process really easy. Everyone was very kind and professional, and they provided a shuttle both ways which I really appreciated. The shuttle driver was a very friendly girl, and I actually had a really nice and fun conversation with her on the ride. The whole process was very smooth, which made the experience even better. I felt taken care of the entire time ❤️
They also followed up after to make sure everything was good, and now there’... Read More

Would like to discuss a recent situation. Please let me know who would want ro resolve an issue from this review site.
I brought my VW Atlas in for a simple oil change and was overcharged for work that wasn’t even done. Less than 24 hours later, my car was throwing a low oil pressure warning and leaking oil everywhere because the job was not completed properly. That’s not just sloppy, that’s outright negligence that could have destroyed my engine.
From there, it only got worse. I had to repeatedly call just to get help, was passed around between staff, and received little to no communication. Promised callbacks never happened, and no one took accountability.
Even more concerning, Service Manager ... Read More

Thank you brother, your professionalism & great customer service deserves recognition and attention from higher ups as we customers need this positive energy u provides. 10/10 for u!!!! I am recommending you to my Pacific Islander families.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My experience with Volkswagen has been excellent from start to finish. From the moment I walked in, I was welcomed into a clean, organized, and professional environment. The staff was courteous, knowledgeable, and respectful, taking the time to listen and answer questions without any pressure or rushed interactions.
On a rainy Washington day, I walked into the VW dealership feeling discouraged—until I met Mustafa. His energy, professionalism, and genuine enthusiasm immediately stood out. He embodies what true customer service should look like.
Throughout my visit, he was attentive, knowledgeable, and consistently upbeat. Even in the pouring rain, he went above and beyond to make sure I felt taken care of and confident in my decision. It’s rare to meet someone who brings that level of dedication and positivity to their work, and Mustafa does it effortlessly.
To his manager: you have an exceptional team member who ... Read More

i had a great experience. they took very good care of me ! i feel satisfied and overall happy with my purchase
Recently bought myself a brand new vehicle over at VW Auburn. It was a smooth experience and I was well taken care of. I feel like I was treated fairly and got the best value for my vehicle and I was able to drive away with something that I really like! No complaints!
We shopped at several dealerships before deciding on Bud Clary. Younus was very patient and showed us several vehicles. After a couple of test drives and some negotiating we got the car we wanted at a great price. Definitely recommend shopping at Bud Clary if you are in the market for a new Volkswagen!

Friendly and easy to deal with. Great selection of new VW's. Bought a 2025 Taos. Great suv!
Our time at Auburn VW was truly wonderful! We brought our two little ones along. The waiting area has a great spot for them to play while we wait. Our sales rep, Jamari, was incredibly patient with us. He was also super responsive from the moment I contacted him, so I could get a look at the vehicle as soon as possible. He worked hard with us to help us find a price that we were happy with. We’re so happy with our vehicle purchase and the excellent customer service we received. Thanks a bunch, Jamari!
Janar is an amazing kind hearted person! He ensured that we were all completely comfortable before making a significant purchase! -Elijah’s family
Yayha was awesome! He took good care of me and my car buying needs he is my new car guy.

I had a great experience at Bud Clary Volkswagen. Janar helped me the whole time. He stayed patient and focused on what I needed. He explained everything in a simple way. He made the process smooth and stress free. I felt respected and taken care of. I would go back and ask for Janar again.
I had a very great experience here one of the best dealerships I’ve been the customer service here is out of this world the employees there are the best of the best especially janar he was so helpful and kind one of the best sales men I’ve talked to
My boy Janar was doing great business with me and sold me a Volkswagen. Need a car hit up Janar.
One of the workers named Janar Muradov is phenomenal in their work as they show how professional, friendly and patient they are as well as how amazing their customer service is when I needed help he gave me the best advice on which car to choose and why. I prefer that dealership than others and their customer service is very good , I recommend everyone to go there as I had a very good experience.
Janar is such a nice guy helped me look for the exact thing I came there for and for the price I want Thank you man
Jimari was professional honest reliable and trustworthy through the entire process. My kinda salesmen thank you Jimari look forward to many future deals
Excellent service and great customer attention. I had a very good experience bringing my car here. The staff was professional, kind, and very attentive. I really liked that they sent me a video explaining the details and condition of my car, which made everything very clear and transparent. I highly recommend this dealership.
Great service! I hate car buying, and these gentlemen made it very smooth. I love my car. I’m very content with my purchase. The only con is regardless of getting a car from them and financing still couldn’t get a full tank of gas.
I reached out looking for a deal on a new VW. Elman, the sales manager here immediately stood out. He got on the phone with me after I submitted my trade-in for online appraisal, he truly listened and helped get me exactly where I wanted to be on both my trade-in and the new vehicle they had available. He genuinely worked with me and made some magic happen—we had a smoking deal all set shortly thereafter. When I came in, the entire team took outstanding care of me. Janar, Jamari, and Gary went above and beyond to get the ... Read More

I recently purchased a vehicle here and had a smooth experience. Jamari helped walk me through the process beforehand and answered my questions clearly, which made everything feel easy and comfortable. Communication was straightforward, and I appreciated how supported I felt throughout. Overall it was a positive experience
I came in to test drive a vehicle but I fell in love with it and ended up leasing it due to an incredible offer. Yahya was my salesperson and was beyond helpful. I’ve owned 3 vehicles prior and have been through the sleazy salesman experience twice in my life. This dealership felt relaxed but knowledgeable and I unironically felt like I was in the drivers seat every step of the way. 10/10 would recommend to anyone who’s looking for a VW.
Very happy with the assistance we got in finding our car Mustafa is our Hero very helpful and kind he made sure we got what we wanted with.And the other staff In general were very helpful and showed us around the shop and treated us so well.will be back to buy our next car!! Very Happy and satisfied 😁
Thank you guys for everything
Mustafa was fantastic.
I showed up an hour before close, and Mustafa was more than happy to take his time in showing me the car l was interested in, and never made me feel rushed or uncomfortable. He was very charismatic and really does try to give you the best deal they possibly can.
I realized I only got 1 key when I got back to my house, and Mustafa took it upon himself, even after the paperwork was all signed, that I got my key. I will for sure return when it's time to look for another car, and ... Read More

I bought a car a couple of year ago from Bud Clary in Auburn. I recently had some issues with the car that I needed to take the car ( Not a Volkswagen) to another dealership and did not have access to my Warranty information. Jace in the service department was extremely helpful when she pointed me in the right direction of contacting finance, and even took my information to then for me when I was struggling to connect. She was so very kind. When I did not get the information, I follow up with the dealership and connected with Derrick ... Read More

I had the best experience working with Jamari! He was extremely helpful, knowledgeable, and patient throughout the entire process.

Highly recommend checking out Bud Clary Auburn Volkswagen if you are looking for a new VW or a used car. We were care shopping for our 16 yr old son's first car last weekend. After driving from Sumner to Everett, we happened to find what we were looking for 15' before the dealership closed. We talked to a very well spoken young salesman, Christian, who answered all of our questions and we made an appt to meet with us the following morning. He set it aside as requested (with a "VIP" sign on it ;). These people get it - ... Read More

Kevin was exceptional. Talk about dedicated to his clients. He surpassed that helped us in a tough situation and was honest and made sure to get us a car we loved ! Looked at other cars in different cities to help find us a car that was what we wanted and fit our situation. Through out our enter experience not once was the ball dropped. He made sure to clarify everything ! THANK YOU KEVIN forgive me forgetting your last name. Tall guy who loves Hawaii ! We will be coming back and sending ppl your way !
I recently purchased my very first car — a 2025 Tiguan SLE — from Bud Clary Volkswagen in Auburn, and the experience was outstanding! Jimmy made the whole process seamless, honest, and stress-free, getting everything wrapped up in under 2 hours. His friendliness and professionalism truly stood out. Even the F&I department made the process seamless! I couldn’t be happier with my experience and highly recommend this dealership. What could have been a scary experience transformed into something truly fun and memorable- and it’s all thanks to Jimmy and the team at this store.
Tyler did a great job getting me my Jetta S. I came in on a weekday and the whole process only took about an hour. Nice showroom and professional staff.
Christian was awesome. He was knowledgeable about the product and was easy to deal with. I would buy another car from him.
When I bought a ignition key for $282, I was not told I would I would have to pay an additional $121 to have it programmed to my car.
Really cool experience, I found the SUV I was looking for and Jimmy made the whole process super easy and fun!
Santiago was my salesman and he was absolutely amazing! He was very helpful and made it his mission to make sure I was a happy customer. He was very welcoming and made me feel like family, right at home. Thank you Santiago and VW team!
I had the brake system on my 2016 GTI SE serviced (i.e. all existing brake fluid flushed from the system, replaced with new fluid and the brakes bled). From past experience, I know that it normally takes about two hours to complete, but somehow the guys managed to get it done in a little over an hour. So a gold star for the technicians and staff at Auburn Volkswagen. : )
It started with my husband calling Channig to ask for some information on pricing on any 2022 taos he could send us for insurance purposes to help settle a claim. He was nice enough to do that. A few days later we went to the lot to buy a car. Channing was very helpful, He is very easy to work with. I highly recommend working with Channing if you are in need of buying a car. He is very good at his job. And he does not pressure you.
Just purchased a vehicle with them. I had a fantastic experience at this dealership! Everyone was incredibly friendly and helpful, making the whole process smooth and stress-free. A special shoutout to Santingo, who went above and beyond to assist me. He was super patient, took the time to explain everything in detail, and answered all my questions thoroughly. I highly recommend this dealership, especially if you have the chance to work with Santingo!
I'm very happy with the 2018 Tiguan that I bought yesterday. Channing was helpful, knowledgeable, & friendly. The co-workers worked well as a team. The entire process only took about 3 hours.
Really happy with my experience purchasing my ID Buzz through Channing and the whole team at Bud Clary. From beginning to end they made it a pleasant experience and I wouldn’t hesitate to buy from them again. Shoutout to Loren who is a shining light of his community. Thank you!
Kevin K made the buying process quick and painless. Was in and out of the dealership within three hours. I love my new car! Thanks Kevin!!!
I had an excellent experience purchasing a car at Bud Clary Volkswagen of Auburn. The courteous sales staff helped make the whole process easy and worry free. Special thanks to Kevin K, for all of his help!
Great service and good communication. I will always bring my car in for service thank you
From the first moment Jimmy approached me in the parking lot,he was so kind and polite, he made sure I was taken care of,he answered all my questions and was very patient with me,we also had fun while I decided if I was going to purchase a car or not,he and I laughed a lot,he made me feel very comfortable with him, keep up the amazing work Jimmy,PS I love my new car.
Channing and Mike made everything super easy. It was probably the fastest car buying experience I’ve ever had. Good group of guys. Very happy with my car. Not a fan of finance managers, though. Ha ha. Okay okay okay. I’ll be serious. Thank you for everything, guys.
From meeting to out the door had a great experience working with Channing & the team at Bud Clary VW. If you’re in the market for a used car or a new Buzz (I might get one when if they force us all to EVs) give Channing a holler. He’ll hook you up.
Kevin was amazing to work with when I bought my car at Bud Clary Volkswagen. He was kind, super easy to talk to, and made the whole experience feel really comfortable. I never felt overwhelmed or confused. He took the time to walk me through everything and made sure I felt good about each step.

Channing was amazing! He really took care of me and the difficult situation I was in. I’m mobile again!
My personal car buying process was a lengthy one but found everything I was looking for in a VW! Assure that this team will provide you with great customer service dedicated to supporting you throughout the process. Thank you Jimmy for getting me the perfect car, I’ve been to many dealers before Bud Clary and there’s a clear difference between “making another sale” and caring for your customers.
Kevin K & Channing were great. Friendly and no pressure. I appreciate those kind of salesmen. I’ll definitely recommend them to the next person(s) wanting to buy a car. Also the kid who put on my temp plates. I forgot his name but he was very friendly too. Happy all the way around. Thanks guys!
Thanks for all helping my sons car jimmy. I am very satisfied his all work.
Santiago was awesome 😎 highly recommend him, very knowledgeable informative and considerate. Made buying a car and enjoyable experience. Thank you Santiago 🤘
Great experience at this dealership!!! Easy, quick, and convenient. The sales person that helped us a lot was Kevin Bender. He is really helpful and responsive to any questions that my family had.
My husband and I are very pleased with the sales experience Jimmy provided us. Within 24 hours the purchase was completed - most of it done online and through calls, we had chosen a car, been provided extensive information, videos, and photos, and had an appointment to complete the purchase. It was a pleasant process due to Jimmy's responsiveness and attentiveness, and we appreciated that he understood that we didn't have the time to sit at the dealership all day. Thank you to Jimmy for his good work!
Great experience. Went in, test drove the car we were interested in, got the out the door price with no hassle, negotiated the price down a little bit, did the paperwork, and was out the door in about 3 hrs total. Worked with Jimmy. No annoying sales pitches or hassling and provided all the help we needed. Would go back here for our next VW!
This has been the best auto dealership experience I’ve ever had! I recently purchased my VW here last month, and I was assisted by a great guy named Jimmy. He was incredibly helpful, professional, and very responsive always quick to reply and ready to answer any questions I had. I highly recommend this place if you're looking for excellent service and a smooth car-buying process.

Was dealing with Jimmy and Daniel the finance manager along with Michael and all 3 were absolutely fantastic! I was in and out of the dealership in less than 2 hours from test drive to purchase. Jimmy was exceptionally helpful with getting me all the information i requested and going above and beyond with helping me get my old vehicle serviced while i took my new car home. Cannot recommend these gentlemen enough!
We had a great experience selling our car to Bud Clary. They made a competitive offer when we listed our cars and quickly had paperwork ready for a quick transaction! Santiago and team were incredibly easy to deal with and made this a complete no hassle situation!
