Customer Testimonials
The best experience my partner and I have had buying a new car! Tommy was a very helpful, low-pressure sales associate who communicated promptly and listened to what we asked for. We chose Mazda because we liked the car and because the service at the dealer was head and shoulders above others from test drive to signing.
Great experience purchasing from Autobarn Mazda in Evanston. Thanks Layla Hill for hooking us up with our sweet ride!
Although I ended buying another car from a different dealership, Tommy at Mazda was so great during my hunt. Very fast, thorough and not pushy at all. This was a great experience.
My wife and I just bought an almost-new Mazda 3. We had a good experience working with Tommy. We live out of state and knew it was the car we wanted and drove in 3.5 hours to pick it up. Things all went really smoothly throughout. Our only slight frustration was driving off with only a couple gallons of gas in the car, which meant we had to stop for gas before leaving Chicago.
My first experience with Mazda and all I have to say is Christopher A. has given me the best car selling experience thus far! I appreciated the fun test drive, and impeccable understanding of business in making me feel the most comfortable with my purchase. Happy to be a part of the Mazda family!
Chris was awesome! Very helpful and insightful. Made my time very easy going looking for a car!
Purchased my first Mazda (CX-5) March 2023 and just loved it! I was assisted by Ivan who helped make sure everything went smoothly and I drove off with my new car that same day. When my Mazda was totaled last month, I was so impressed by the safety features that engaged on impact that I knew I wanted the same vehicle. Before I could even think about my next move, Ivan reached out to me to check in, as he was alerted that I had filed a total loss claim. I was so impressed with his follow up a whole year ...

Layla was absolutely fantastic!
My husband did a lot of research on a new car for me, and found some of the best deals on what we were looking for at Autobarn.
Jason Harris was our rep, and he did a wonderful job, answering questions and helping us negotiate the best deal. After the sale was done and we were ready to pick up our new car, he went through all the features and and showed us how to connect car play, and what all the knobs and button’s functions were. He took an extra half hour with us, AFTER the sale was ... Read More

Excellent service from Layla. Very happy with purchase experience.
Hi I have to add another review for Chris Allegretti. We came back from a week long trip and found our car battery to be dead. I called him for advice and whether the Service Department could help and who to call. Chris hopped in his car and was here within 20 minutes with a portable charger and Boom we were on our way, Thanks so much Chris, you weren't kidding when you said we could call anytime!
Just had a really great experience with Autobarn Mazda. It starts and ends with Mauricio Rubio who worked his tail off to make the deal happen. There was a great deal of "back and forth" in this negotiation, and Mauricio kept it moving. I was also glad it was such a nice day, to enjoy some air while the discussions happened inside.
I'd also like to mention Elias in Financing. Moving on to him, after the work Mauricio put in, was like the frosting on the cake. Elias walked me through options, got a lower than expected ... Read More

My husband and I were looking to buy two used cars. We went to a few different dealerships in the Chicago suburbs and Autobarn instantly stuck out to us as professional, respectful, and accommodating to what we needed. We worked with Tommy for a few weeks so we could find exactly what we were looking for and he was extremely communicative and patience with us. He explained the whole process very well and made sure we got the cars in the time frame that we needed them. We're so thankful to Tommy for making it a smooth process and ... Read More

Bought a cx5 from Jason. He is a great person in general. He never pushed hard to sell but gave a lot of informative information to help the decision to buy. The dealership is top notch and everyone is very professional. If anyone is thinking about buying a Mazda this is the place. Also I must include the financial person Jamal He was very professional and thorough and pays great attention to detail and made sure we understood all of the documents . Thanks again what a great team of people.
We were here on two occasions and we worked with Jason (sales person), he was genuine and up front. He never pushed us he was just informative. He gave us time to think. We also met the upper management or first time out and he just talked with us. He didn’t overly push us either. We’d recommend this dealership.
I had a wonderful experience from start to finish at this dealership. Chris Reis was very knowledgeable and I had a great experience.
Wonderful associates, wonderful and helpful technicians, wonderful and clean design. I have taken my car to Autobarn of Evanston for years, and each time it gets better and better. In addition to Buti Poldino being very helpful and informative with my car needs, while waiting my phone needed to be re-charged, and he went out of his way and lent me the most interesting phone charger. Thank you for being there! Conveniently located!
Nice clean drive-in facility, friendly staff, and modern updated waiting room. When the mechanic had a question about something I requested I was able to go into the back and show him what I needed done. I wanted the sway bar mount and bushing lubricated. Most shops seem to keep the owner and mechanic separated at all times. I had requested the same service at another dealership, and they said it couldn't be done.
Layla was absolutely amazing in helping me test driving the Mazdas. It was a welcomed, customer focused, no pressure experience, filled with Layla’s enthusiasm and detailed knowledge.
My wife and I purchased a new car from here, and Mauricio made the whole experience great. He was patient, knowledgeable and answered all our questions. We'd certainly recommend The Autobarn!
I flew all the way from Kentucky to purchase a Certified Used Mazda from Autobarn Mazda. It was a fantastic deal, the sales associate, Tommy, was pleasant, helpful and knowledgeable. It was an all around wonderful car buying experience.

I came into autobarn Mazda in Evanston to pick out a new suv, Patrick Levy helped walked me through the process from beginning to end. We looked at different options that would work for my family.

Eric at Mazda of Evanston was professional and knowledgeable. It has been awhile since I have had a car, and happily this experience was very efficient. All my questions were answered with patience and courtesy, and that was very much appreciated.
I recently purchased a new vehicle at this dealership. I was dreading the process, as my last purchase 12 years ago from a different dealership was not pleasant.
I am happy to report that my experience this time was 180 degrees opposite and was really enjoyable.
We met with Layla Hill. She could not have been nicer, more pleasant and was very easy to talk to and deal with.

I had an excellent buying experience purchasing my 2022 Mazda CX5 Preferred. Tommy was a great sales person and made the process fast and easy. Also dealing with the managers, Brady…Ross and Jeff guaranteed I received a great price and very competitive financing. I highly recommend the group at Mazda of Evanston
I bought a car from out of state over phone, and Tommy patiently discussed everything with me. It took us a few days to reach to an agreement even though they are somewhat flexible in negotiations. I picked up the car and everything went smoothly thanks to Ivan. They treat customers well and the service is great. If you have a car in mind, I’d recommend to give them a try.
I had a fantastic experience at the Autobarn! Ivan Saez was incredible and truly went above and beyond to ensure that my experience went smoothly. He answered all of my questions and worked with me to ensure that I felt confident in my purchase and was aware of all of my options.

Quite a refreshing experience for car shopping at Autobarn Mazda Evanston. Jason Harris was great to work with throughout the entire shopping and decision making process. I enjoy Jason's straight forward style in addressing and responding to my questions and requests, which effectively facilitates the decision making process. Another thing I like about this Mazda dealer is they offer more choices of trims, including entry level ones.

If you need a Mazda in the Chicagoland area, this is where you need to go. I recently purchased a new CX-50 and I love it. Layla and Brady guided me through the entire process.They were so knowledgable and were able to answer every question. If you need a new (or used!) Mazda, go to Autobarn in Evanston and ask for Layla and Brady.
Jeffery Williams has helped me with purchasing two vehicles in the last two years.He helped me get my dream convertible the first year… when it was almost impossible to find the Mazda Miata ,helped me through the financing details, patiently answering all my questions, directing me to make certain I also purchased Gap insurance, which I knew nothing about. Thank goodness he wisely prompted me to pay extra coverage, because barely a year later, my car was totaled and I would have had to pay for the r remaining amount owed that my regular insurance would not have covered. ...

2 leases in a row. Great service and nice home town feel. Definitely ask for Mr. Patrick Levy.
We very much enjoyed working with Chris A. Some parts of the process were rocky, but he helped us through that, and in the end we were satisfied with the experience.
I had a great time buying my car at the Mazda dealership in Evanston! Eric Fragassi was incredibly knowledgeable about the cars I was interested in. It made the experience of buying a car very easy and enjoyable! He answered all my questions and provided helpful information.
I highly recommend this dealership and more so Billy Maio the sales agent who was laid back...honest...good sense of humor (important to me) and knowledgeable. Simply put he made it NOT stressful and stayed late after they had closed. I will send my friends and employees here when/if they need a car. The way things should be at all dealerships.
Prompt, professional, and excellent service
We worked with Jeff to purchase a CPO CX9. The process was pretty smooth, and we are very happy with the new (to us) car. Jeff is extremely knowledgeable about Mazda vehicles, and was able to provide a great amount of detail about the different cars we were considering. In the end, he helped us make the call between two cars we were considering, and actually suggested we take the slightly cheaper vehicle that better met our needs. He's also a friendly dude, and the few hours we spent with him were enjoyable. Would highly recommend.
Efficient and friendly service from Oscar. Job completed on time as promised. Explained why reattaching the rear bumper reflector needed to be done by a body shop.
My husband and I worked with Tommy, who was open and transparent and worked really hard to help us find a good deal. I cannot recommend working with him and the Autobarn people enough.
Was just in with Sean Drake was so amazing with selling me my vehicle had an amazing experience definitely recommend coming here to get your next vehicle and working with him very professional!
I recently purchased a Mazda CX 50 from Autobarn Mazda Evanston and had an exceptional experience, thanks to Lyla Hill! From the moment I walked into the dealership, Lyla went above and beyond to ensure I found the perfect car to fit my needs and budget. Her knowledge, professionalism, and genuine care made the entire process smooth and enjoyable. I highly recommend both the car and Lyla Hill at this dealership for anyone in the market for a new vehicle. Thank you, Lyla, and Mazda Autobarn Evanston, for exceeding my expectations!
I've taken my leased CX30 twice now to be serviced and the experience has been great. This last time, Oscar managed the process flawlessly and made me feel like a valued customer. Love the fact that I get a video report!
Had great experience with Jason Harris, and his manager Dan! Both were very helpful and walked me through the pros and cons of leasing. Satisfied with my CX-30, which align with my current car needs. Thank you!
The staff at Autobarn Mazda were very helpful during my purchasing process. Layla from the sales team was especially helpful going up and beyond to ensure I had a smooth ownership process. Would definitely recommend this dealership to my friends and family.
We had an excellent car buying experience with Autobarn Mazda. Layla is incredible and she made the experience so much positive. Her follow up is excellent and I am truly impressed by her excellent communication skills. The company is very lucky to have excellent team members like Layla. We tried other places and came back to Autobarn Mazda mostly because of the positive experience we had with Layla. She is very respectful of our commitment and time and does not rush you which is not always the case when you go to other dealerships. Thank you, Layla
Jeff was a great sales person, respectful and not pushy, made the process fast and easy. Jonathan and the team helped me out with a great finance rate on my new CX-50!! Everyone was very welcoming and helpful. They have great inventory at the Autobarn. I will definitely recommend checking them out 🙂
Everyone I dealt with here was extremely nice and professional. Jason Harris was the salesman I worked with for the purchase of my 2023 Mazda 3 Hatch. He was pleasant to deal with while I was at the dealership, and then went above and beyond answering questions I had the following days after the purchase! One of the best dealership experiences I've had so far.
Jefferey Williams made my buying experience an excellent one. I was able to find a car within my budget that I'm extremely satisfied with. He followed up with me after my purchase and continues to be available should I have any questions.
Working with Jason and Dan was an absolute pleasure! Jason is extremely patient, I never felt pressured to make a decision, and most importantly, a professional - who knows the car business inside and out. The buying process of my Mazda took only 1 day. I highly recommend you talk to Jason if you are considering buying a new Mazda.
PROFESIONAL WORK
As completely new to the car buying process, Tommy was extremely helpful in explaining the auto loan process and getting me set-up. The entire process was quicker and easier than expected and I was able to complete the paperwork and pick-up the car the next day! He answered all my questions thoroughly in addition to reviewing the price break-down, warranty coverage, etc. Took a nice test drive and even a buyers photos with a BIG RED BOW on top! Thank you! Love the Mazda CX-30 Select! I'm ready to ZOOM ZOOM!

The entire experience from start to finish at Autobarn deserves high marks. The communication and continuity of care between team members solidified my sale and made me confident in their care. We were lucky to work with Jason Harris who treated us with respect, patience, and and seemed genuine throughout the sale. He was personable, transparent, and never pushy or "salesy". He's the only person I ever want to buy another vehicle from. Thank you!
