I recently bought a 2000 BMW 323Ci from Michael Z at Coastal Auto Connection through the bringatrailer.com auction site. I was hesitant about buying a 20 year old car from Florida and shipping it up to Connecticut – especially without seeing it in person. However, due to the transparency of the listing and Michael’s willingness to answer all the questions he was asked about the car, I bought it. As soon as the auction ended, Michael called me to discuss finalizing the sale and getting all the paperwork in order. He was extremely responsive, helpful and thoroughly professional. Michael, organized the shipping and kept me informed as to the driver’s whereabouts. The end to end process was very efficient and pain free. The condition of the car that I received was as listed and the interior was immaculate. It drives like a dream too. I cannot recommend Michael Z at Coastal Auto Connection highly enough. Should be 5++++ stars!

Coastal Auto Connection is a one-person low-volume used-car dealership that is the passion of Michael Z, the owner. He sells only prime cars (primarily BMWs) that have been gently used and meticulously maintained. He makes sure that each car is flawless upon delivery. He searches out and sources select vehicles from an extensive area.

Michael is extremely knowledgeable and passionate about BMW cars. He is the perfect dealer if you want a classic BMW automobile that is in the best possible condition. He strikes me as deeply ethical and is easy to deal with, exactly who you want to buy from. Highest recommendation.

I recently purchased a 6 speed 2005 TL from Michael. I received the car mechanically immaculate. It starts up just fine, it drives smooth, and it’s comfortable. I trust this car to go anywhere. On top of it being a reliable vehicle it looks amazing as well. The paint is in great shape, the headlights are clear and the interior looks like it was garage kept its entire life. Not a crack or tear in sight. I’m extremely happy with how the car drives and looks. The car wasn’t the only good experience I had during the transaction. Michael is very professional, straightforward, and punctual. If there was anything I needed or wanted to know about the car he had a comprehensive answer. It was unlike any sales experience I’ve ever had and I couldn’t be happier with the customer service and the car itself.

I recently purchased a 1991 BMW 318is on Bring a Trailer. This was the first time I had purchased a vehicle through an auction and was a little nervous on how things would go. Michael contacted me shortly after the completion of the auction and helped me take care of the details quickly and efficiently. He even helped find me a great shipper at a reasonable cost. I would gladly recommend Coastal Auto Connection to anyone who needs a great car!

I purchased a 2001 BMW Z3 3.0 roadster from Coastal Auto Connection that I found on the Autotrader.com web site. After completing the interest query, I had a response from Michael within ten minutes along with links to several videos that provided an excellent overview of the vehicle. Michael answered all my questions and went well beyond to provide images of areas on the underside of the vehicle that were a possible concern to me. Michael's honesty, integrity, and commitment to superior customer service was a standout in today's automotive service sector. When I made the 700 mile trip to view and purchase the vehicle, I was not disappointed with the vehicle or Michael. Every aspect of the vehicle was as portrayed via phone, email, and images. Michael even offered to pick me up at my hotel to get the vehicle. The 700 mile return trip in the vehicle, and the subsequent two weeks spent with the vehicle, went without incident. I am extremely thrilled with my lucky find of both the car and Michael. I would highly recommend Coastal Auto Connection with Michael as a dedicated automotive enthusiast that provides phenomenal customer service and attention to the details of making a great car the best for a potential buyer.

I purchased a car (1999 BMW Z3) from Coastal Auto Connection remotely, which I have never done before. I was being very cautious, but I was lucky to have found Coastal Auto Connection. Micheal was very professional and trustworthy, and made the process seamless for me. Not only did the car itself meet and exceed my expectations, but I was very happy with the level of service and knowledge that Coastal was able to provide to help me with my decision and finalizing the purchase. Micheal & Coastal Auto Connection are bringing much needed quality and honesty to the enthusiast car market, and I was blown away by the level of care and effort put in to making sure I was getting the car I wanted and expected. I had the car shipped to my location and I even received positive feedback from the transporter on the professionalism and care shown by Coastal when the car was being loaded. I could not be happier and recommend checking them out if you are looking for a well cared for enthusiast car.


★★★★★ - T.G.

Coastal Auto Connection is a phenomenal used-car dealership who is run by a passionate CEO, Michael Zaharios. Recently, I purchased a 2006 BMW 330Ci ZHP from him and the process was extremely stress-free and pleasant. Michael was very thorough and knowledgeable while providing me a fully-sorted vehicle that I truly love. The car arrived in tip-top shape at a reasonable price delivered with excellent customer service. Often times, dealership is filled with pushy salesmen, but Michael is one of a kind. He spends the time to find the vehicle that suits the customer and ensures all maintenance is taken care of prior to delivery. Reputation means everything to Michael and I highly recommend for those who have not check out this dealership to give it a try!
