Matt was great. Purchased at G550 and love it. Matt is very knowledgeable and great service. Highly recommend.
Recently purchased a new GLC300. Worked with Jadrian and Joe Calderone. Overall a very positive experience.
Matt is not your typical car salesman. He is very friendly and very knowledgeable about vehicles and is also helpful when comparing Mercedes to competing options. It’s a low pressure, high touch experience and Matt makes the whole process easy to understand.
Matt was wonderful! He patiently answered all our questions and helped us out immensely. i found the exact car I wanted and completed the entire process within 2 days!

I traveled from Michigan to Illinois to purchase a luxury vehicle from this dealership, expecting the level of service and professionalism associated with the Mercedes-Benz brand. Unfortunately, what should have been an exciting and memorable experience has turned into a month-long frustration due to poor communication, unresolved issues, and a lack of accountability.
Before arriving, I had spent considerable time working with a salesperson and had built a good rapport with him. However, I was never informed that he had left the dealership until I arrived ready to purchase the vehicle. My deal was then handed off to another salesperson, ...

I traveled from Michigan to Illinois to purchase a luxury vehicle from this dealership, expecting the level of service and professionalism associated with the Mercedes-Benz brand. Unfortunately, what should have been an exciting and memorable experience has turned into a month-long frustration due to poor communication, unresolved issues, and a lack of accountability.
Before arriving, I had spent considerable time working with a salesperson and had built a good rapport with him. However, I was never informed that he had left the dealership until I arrived ready to purchase the vehicle. My deal was then handed off to another salesperson, Andrew, who appeared unfamiliar with many of the details and did not seem invested in ensuring a smooth customer experience.
One of the biggest issues involved my license plate transfer. Prior to my arrival, I provided my registration and clearly requested that my existing plate be transferred. When I reviewed the paperwork, I discovered that a new plate had been ordered and charged instead. I was assured the issue would be corrected, but more than a month later I still do not have a clear answer regarding the status of my plate transfer or reimbursement for the fee I was incorrectly charged.
I also have not received reimbursement for the Uber ride from the airport to the dealership, despite being told that it would be covered.
Another disappointment was the lack of communication regarding warranty options. Questions I asked could not be answered without repeated trips back and forth to the finance department, and I later learned there were warranty coverage options available that were never fully explained during the purchase process.
Perhaps most disappointing has been the lack of response from management. I contacted the Pre-Owned Sales Manager, Darren, multiple times regarding these issues and was repeatedly told to wait for updates. I also contacted the General Manager by both phone and email more than three weeks ago and have yet to receive any response.
While waiting at the dealership, I also noticed other customers being offered refreshments and basic courtesies while I was largely overlooked. Although minor by itself, it added to the overall feeling that my business was not valued.
More than a month after my purchase, I am still waiting for answers regarding my plate transfer, reimbursement for expenses, and acknowledgment of the concerns I raised. A luxury vehicle purchase should not end with this level of uncertainty and lack of follow-up.
Based on my experience before, during, and especially after the sale, I cannot recommend this dealership.
Matt and the entire team were incredibly helpful. Since I purchased my GLC from out of state, Matt handled everything remotely to save me from making multiple trips. All I had to do was sign the paperwork and pick up the car. He also provided a very thorough walkthrough of all the vehicle features and functions. Highly recommend! 😊

Beyond the accent, Matt is absolutely brilliant. He knows Mercedes-Benz inside and out, answers questions honestly, and never makes you feel pressured. In an industry where transparency can sometimes be hard to find, Matt is refreshingly straightforward and trustworthy.

What really sets him apart is his personality. He's funny, engaging, and somehow manages to make the car-buying process genuinely enjoyable. Instead of feeling like a sales transaction, it feels like getting expert advice from a friend who happens to know everything about Mercedes-Benz.
Matt made our entire experience seamless, stress-free, and even entertaining. If every salesperson were like him, people would buy cars for fun. We couldn't be happier with our experience and highly recommend asking for Matthew Colrain if you're shopping at Mercedes-Benz of Barrington.
Five stars — and a few extra for the accent.
Buying a car is usually about as fun as getting a root canal while doing your taxes, but Matthew Colrain at Mercedes-Benz of Barrington completely broke the system.

If you want a fantastic Mercedes and a buying experience that actually lowers your blood pressure, go see Matthew. The man deserves a medal, a raise, and possibly his own sitcom.
Matt was fantastic, wasn’t even looking to buy a car. Was just driving by and stopped in. So glad I did, leased a stunning CLE 53 AMG. Matt is epic, go buy from the Aussie!
