Route 9 in Freehold is home to plenty of dealerships, but Ray Catena stands apart as the new car dealership that puts your actual driving needs ahead of a quick sale. We work with shoppers from Freehold, Lakewood, and Toms River every day, and the common thread is always the same: people want a Mercedes-Benz dealer who explains options clearly instead of pushing a script.
That approach shapes everything here, from how we walk you through the current Mercedes-Benz lineup to how we lay out financing paths, to how our team handles a simple maintenance booking for a car you already own. You won’t find pressure tactics on our showroom floor, just straight answers.
Here’s what regularly brings Central New Jersey drivers to our new car dealership over the competition:
Stock at our new car dealership changes often, but the breadth stays consistent. Here’s a snapshot of the Mercedes-Benz sedans and SUVs Freehold-area shoppers are choosing from this season:
Not sure where to start? Tell our team what you’re actually using the vehicle for, daily commuting, road trips, hauling kids and gear, and we’ll narrow the list down fast instead of walking you past every model on the lot.
Buying from a new car dealership is only half the relationship. Our service center is staffed by technicians who work exclusively on Mercedes-Benz vehicles, using genuine OEM parts and diagnostic tools built for this brand specifically, not generic scan tools meant to cover a dozen makes at once.
Whatever stage your vehicle is at, our shop covers it:
We know sitting around a waiting room isn’t anyone’s favorite part of car ownership, so we’ve tried to make it painless: a loaner vehicle if you need one, a car wash before you leave, and a café stocked with food and drinks while you wait. Plenty of drivers from Lakewood and Toms River skip the closer options and make the drive here specifically for that combination of expertise and comfort.
Before you book, take a look at our current service specials, we roll out new monthly offers regularly to help keep costs down on the services people need most.

Financing conversations shouldn’t feel like a negotiation tactic. Our team lays out your real options upfront, whether you’re weighing a lease on a new C-Class or a loan on a GLE, and helps you land on the structure that makes sense for your budget, not just the one that moves the most inventory.
Our finance department handles:
Whether you’re eyeing a new C-Class, weighing the extra room in a GLS, or just need reliable service on the Mercedes-Benz you already own, our Freehold showroom is set up to make the process easy.
We’re centrally located for drivers coming from Lakewood, Toms River, and everywhere in between across Monmouth and Ocean Counties. Stop by, or reach out to our team to set up a test drive whenever you’re ready.
