About Us

Thank you for the opportunity to earn your business. Since 1950, Marquardt of Barrington has been serving customers' automotive needs throughout the Barrington area. The late Larry Marquardt purchased the dealership and built the company's foundation upon the principles of honesty and integrity. Larry always looked at each transaction as the start to a long term business relationship. Far before Customer Satisfaction Indexes (CSI) became common vocabulary in the auto industry, Marquardt of Barrington has embraced treating each and every customer exactly as we would like to be treated. Seventy years after our company began; we still strive to exceed our customers' expectations in everything that we do.

Today, 2 of Larry's sons, Kurt and Dan own and operate the dealership and have not only followed in their father's footsteps, but share and embrace their late father's business philosophy and personal convictions. Our goal is to always provide competitive pricing in both sales and service while offering a "World Class" customer ownership experience that is second to none. Our quality and experience is an immediate differentiator that will be noticed from the moment you enter into our dealership. In addition to our quality professionals, our facilities and setting are beautiful! Hundreds of customers have told us over the years that we have the most beautiful dealership they have ever seen and we are very proud of that! We continue to invest to ensure that your visit is comfortable and the facilities are accommodating. From the expansive cedar trusses in our showroom, to Italian porcelain tiles throughout, the warm and inviting earth tones will set you at ease. A low pressure environment with helpful and courteous staff that is here to serve you will be a breath of fresh air. We are here to serve you.

Whether you live in Palatine, Hoffman Estates, Schaumburg, Lake Zurich, Cary, or anywhere else in the Barrington area, we are easily accessible and centrally located. In addition to new cars, trucks, SUVs and crossovers, we offer a wide variety of pre-driven certified vehicles. If you are looking for a pre-driven vehicle and you can't find what you are looking for in our inventory, let us know and we'll try to locate it for you.

You service your vehicle a lot more often than you buy one, so the service experience you receive is critically important. We also understand that even when you purchase a vehicle from Marquardt of Barrington, if you don't have a great service experience, we are not likely to see you again. Your service business is not something we take for granted. We always have competitive pricing; the most experienced and best trained technicians, and an array of benefits and rewards for our service customers.

Lastly and certainly not least important, as a Christian owned company, we desire to glorify God in all that we do!

"Whatever you do, do it all to the glory of God." 1 Corinthians 10:31
