We walked in and walked out 2 hours later with a Q5. Everyone was great, helpful, lovely and it was the smoothest car experience I have ever had.

My Review of Pacific Audi:
Purchased a so-called NEW 2012 Audi Q5, it has 2 dents caused by the dealership that I didn't notice until 3 weeks later. They did not perform a walkthrough of the car and because it was night time it would not have been spotted due to the location. Spoke to Fred and Bernie about it, very nice guys but they and the dealership refuse to assume any responsibility. Even after submitting solid evidence that it occurred on their premises. Spoke to Audi corporate and they don't want to do anything because it's a dealership issue. I paid for a new pristine vehicle received damage goods. Shop elsewhere where sales and ownership walk the walk and not just talk the talk. This was my first and last Audi I ever purchase.

Employee(s) Dealt With: Kevin Sarrafieh, Byron, Rosa

My Review of Pacific Audi:
Kevin was an absolute delight to work with on the purchase of our Q7. We came down to the dealership having seen a couple of their Q7s on the internet. Everything was as advertised and Kevin was extremely helpful in answering our many questions. He was honest and focused on our needs as opposed to trying to sell a car. Byron the sales manager was also fantastic -- both helpful and responsive to our needs and concerns. And Rosa (who handled the final process of the sale) was clear, enthusiastic, and delightful. The entire process was as good a car buying experience as we've had.

My Review of Pacific Audi:
BEWARE OF....I purchased (with confidence, I thought)a Certified used 2008 Q7 from Pacific Audi (Torrance)in June of 2010, the car was nice, sales and financing was OK. BUT when I wanted to trade the vehicle in March of 2011 somewhere else, I was shocked to find out that the vehicle had been painted on the right front fender and door,hence being worth $2000 less vs the no paint work value. In disbilief,I went back to Pacific to ask for an explanation. There, the salesman and his manager, without skipping a beat said that "the car probably had some scratch or something, needing touching up"! followed by presenting a Carfax report that did not show any damage report. This was supposed to make this a non issue, even though they had previous knowledge of it and chose not to disclose it at the time of sale. To make matters worse I had them appraise the vehicle themselves and their figure of $26000, was $3000 less than CARMAX offered me on an outright purchase, just 1/2 mile down the road. I contacted Audi customer relations for assistance and after a week of "investigation" all they had to say was that as long as the Carfax is OK and there is no major structural damage, this would not be a disclosure item. Here I am, having paid good money for damaged goods which I cannot re-sell or trade in without taking a beating for what I had no knowledge of. If I had my guards up as if I was buying from any corner car lot then I would have had it checked by a third party but the "Audi Certified" thing, ended up to be the catch.
Also just a word of advice for the dealership management;

"There is a difference between what is legal and what is moral". We'll see how the court rules.

My Review of Pacific Audi:
Was here shopping for a A3. Waited in the showroom for a while til someone asked if we needed help. Can't recall who helped me. Might have been Rick or Jim. We tested the 2.0T and 3.2S. Went for a long test drive. Not pushy at all. No "what I can do to get you in a car today" attitude. I like that.

Employee(s) Dealt With: Ryan Shipton

My Review of Pacific Audi:
Came in looking for a new Audi to replace a lease that was ending this month. I had a great dealership experience with Ryan. He was professional, knowledgeable and represented the Audi brand very well.

Unfortunately, the vehicle we wanted was not available anywhere in the Southern California Area and we couldn't wait 60-90 days to order one.

We ultimately purchased our Audi from a dealership about 400 miles away and had it shipped.

When I'm in the future for our next Audi, I will definitely look up Ryan and Pacific Audi.
