I am very pleased with East Coast Totoya. This is my second vehicle I have purchases at East Coast Totoya. Carlos had sold me my first vehicle and I was very happy when I left the dealer, the price was second vehicle I have purchases at East Coast Totoya. Carlos had sold me my first vehicle and I was very happy when I left the dealer, the price was great and the customer service that was given to me was wonderful. I live in Brooklyn and I have been to other toyota dealers but wasn't given the same treatment like East Coast Totoya. I would rather drive to New Jersey and be very satisfy with my decision. I couldn't see my self going to purchase my second vehicle at any other dealer. I decided to go back to East Coast Toyota for a trade in. Carlos was the sale man I wanted to help me on my second vehicle being that he was very kind and helpful and made you feel comfortable, I knew Carlos would help me pick the right vehicle for me. I am very happy with my new car and the treatment I received from my sales man and East Coast Totoya was great. I couldn't see myself purchasing a new vechile any where else but East Coast Totoya. I recommended anyone that wants to buy a Totoya and have questions on purchasing should go to at East Coast Totoya. More
I feel that East Coast Toyota employes were very knowing and professional with helping me purchase and work out a good deal for leasing a new Camry.

Animatedragin, my heart goes out to you for all your trouble in getting a refund, but I do have a friendly advice for you too. Anyone that can be persuaded to put a downpayment of $5,000 to show that he trouble in getting a refund, but I do have a friendly advice for you too. Anyone that can be persuaded to put a downpayment of $5,000 to show that he/she is serious about buying a car, should really go with another person to buy anything more than $150. I am trying to be helpful and I hope you take a friend/relative along when you go to a dealership for service too. Remember most dealerships operate on a simple premise - do everything to maximize their profits. When a customer walks in the door, they try to get the maximum downpayment and the maximum Sale price from the customer. All the customer has to do is stand up and say "NO, Thanks". More

I Purchase a used car on November 2009, the car came without a spare tire and the salesman and manager told me that they will get me the tire that I should not worry about it. I havent receive the spare without a spare tire and the salesman and manager told me that they will get me the tire that I should not worry about it. I havent receive the spare tire and every time I call they avoid me. Also I only receive one key for the car I bought and the salesman told me that they will give me the key when I pick up the registration but that didnt happen. Maybe I should have got everything in writing but I thought I could trust this thieves. Do not trust this dealer. The sales guy was Luis Castillo and manager was Rod Solis avoid at all cost. I regret the day I dealed with these thieves. More
Followup to my previous review on Purchasing experience that went sour.. this is regarding the refund of my downpayment for the new car that they refused to sell to me. I had placed a total 5000$ downpa that went sour.. this is regarding the refund of my downpayment for the new car that they refused to sell to me. I had placed a total 5000$ downpayment on the RAV4 in their suggested "good faith" that Im serious about purchasing before continued negotiation on the price. (BAD IDEA!!) This isn't just $200 that most people would put down.. this is FIVE THOUSAND$, Im SERIOUS about buying that day. SO i gave them $2000 in Money Order (VERY BAD IDEA- ALways in Credit Card!!) and $3000 in Credit Card since they refused to accept more than that via CC. But they still insisted on $1100 ABOVE invoice (quite outrageous btw, an avg deal is about 500$ above invoice), with a nondocumented promise of $100 referal refund at signing. After unsuccessfully trying to forcefeed me added charges by lieing that they're neccessary, they refused to sell me the car because I refused the extra charges. So I ask for my $5000 back. They refused that also. They said refunds are only processed on Fridays (It was Monday). I asked about my 2000$ Money Order.. and they said "it's already in the safe, we'll issue a check refund on Friday". Fine, I left, very upset they wasted 6 hrs of my time. Come the FIRST Friday, I called EastCoast to make sure my refund will be processed. They tell me I have to Drive back into the dealership for a magnetic card swipe for the refund (they didnt mention this Monday), and the $2000 check will go in the mail that day. I'm outraged, they want me to rent a car to drive across state lines paying 20$ tolls each way for a refund they owe me. I call my CC company and my CC confirms that a Magnetic swipe is NOT necessary for this refund, all they have to do is refund it from their system. EastCoast is LYING about physical CreditCard Presence. I filed for CC Chargeback of $3000 and CreditCardCompany says they will refrain from a forced chargeback until 30days after the initial charge, they will give the merchant 30days to refund themselves. I wait until the following wednesday and still NO CHECK in the mail. From NJ to NY, if they dropped the mail on Friday, I should have it by Saturday, LATEST would be Monday. **when i had called eastcoast, the CSR transfer me to Orlando, the Sales Manager that i dealt with that day. My fiance actually spoke to him since the car was to be under her name and he went off on a rant trashtalking about me of how obnoxious and unreasonable, and difficult I was in negotiating the price. Professional? I think not, it was hard to keep him on topic about the refund. Come 2nd Friday, I called EASTCOAST again for my refund. Again, we were forced to speak to Orlando, which we really didnt want to since in every instance of interaction w/ him, he seems to have no interest in cooperating. He again, reaffirms that we MUST come to locatin for the CreditCard refund, and he'll followup on the Check refund and call us back and send us a fax confirmation. He never did. Next week rolls around.. NO CHECK IN THE MAIL. 30Days later, we have not received our $3000 CreditCard Refund willingly by EastCoast, so ChaseBank pulls the funds back forcefully. EastCoast can still appeal the chargeback and recharge us again requiring us to re-appeal, but fortunately, they didnt.. but i don't see why they would since all the paperwork we initially sent in was pretty open&shut clear what happened. 50+days later, we still have NO CHECK REFUND for $2000 from eastcoast. I filed reports with the BBB.org, FTC, Attorney Generals of NY and NJ, and filed a complaint with Toyota Headquarters, and researching Small Claims Court against EastCoast. Unfortunately Toyota HQ can only note the complaint and alert the dealership, but cannot authoritively instruct them to refund. ToyotaHQ instructs me to contact EastCoast again and ask to speak specifically to the CustomerRelationsSpecialist. So i called eastcoast and ask for CustomerRelationsSpecialist and was transfered accordingly. Spoke with Mark Catalano on a Monday, he said he'd research the matter and return my call the next day. NextDay Tuesday, Mark calls us back and says he will issue a check refund for $2000 that same day, if i could come in for pickup. I said no to pickup so he agreed to mail it. I asked for a fax confirmation and he said OK. I never recvd the Fax confirmation. Wednesday =NO CHECK. Thursday =NO CHECK. Friday ("refund day") and it's his day off, I leave a msg. Friday Night, I find my $2000 check from EastCoast, FINALLY. The check was printed on Tuesday, and obviously mailed BEFORE Friday if It's in my mailbox by Friday. REFUNDS ARE ONLY PROCESSED ON FRIDAYS? I call BULLS8lT!! Now if Customer Service didnt INSIST on having us speak with Orlando & Rolando, this wouldve been resolved a LONG time ago. Thank You Mark Catalano, but no thank you East Coast Toyota. I will never buy from them ever unless they can beat my best offer by 300$ OTD with no xx from the salesman nor the F&I, and Im not putting more than $100 downpayment. More
I bought a used car here, a 2004 Echo with 27k. The carfax was clean. The price was very fair, in fact it was exactly the Blue Book value! I really was so surprised! The salesperson was Luis. He was so carfax was clean. The price was very fair, in fact it was exactly the Blue Book value! I really was so surprised! The salesperson was Luis. He was so kind. El fue tal caballero! (He was such a gentleman!) He and John in financing were so efficient, I drove the car home the very same day! When I had it inspected, the mechanic loved the car and said it would take me to California and back and more! I paid off all the financing right away, and they actually sent me a refund check! I highly recommend East Coast Toyota, they are great, you can really trust these guys! More

They have good price, they can match Edmund price for car itself. But the sales LIED TO ME TOO MUCH!! 1. We are dealing with $1000 cash rebate, the sales try to tell me " if you use cash rebate the car itself. But the sales LIED TO ME TOO MUCH!! 1. We are dealing with $1000 cash rebate, the sales try to tell me " if you use cash rebate the car price will get even higher " , with the most stupid math work I've ever seen...I taught university physics in college...I can't believe people will do this. 2. Hidden charge : document fee $300, window etching fee $200 which is totally useless...Toyota itself has vin number sticker on car EVERYWHERE! I can accept price fight, but don't lie to me for useless charge! More
