First let me say that I’ve always hated buying a car. - TorinoMan

First let me say that I’ve always hated buying a car. The thought of traveling 1500 miles to buy a car was never going to happen, until I spoke with Ahmed. There was no pressure and I immediately could sense that he was a decent person that cared about trying to make his customers happy. I worked a deal with him on a certain car. I flew into San Diego and he promptly watched my flight and picked me up at the airport. He had me drive the car away from the congested traffic so I could get the feel of it and open it up and be assured there were no problems. He had already replaced a couple of items and changed the oil to guarantee a safe trip home. Wow, A Fantastic experience here. If I were to hit the lottery tomorrow this is the kind of person that I would want to start a business with ! A+ Cali-Auto Sales - A one man operation that will take care of you ! R.L.

OK experience - Ahmed A.

Dealership closed down, car had lots of problems, and things just dragged on for months and months. Tough lesson learned which is don't buy used cars.

If any of you have been shopping for a vehicle in the - DAVETKACHEFF

If any of you have been shopping for a vehicle in the past month or year you may know of this new dealership tactic… near as I can tell a dealership will absorb a trade-in some night (to close a deal) then, as soon as the sun comes up, the vehicle’s posted on the web for sale. The trade-in hasn’t been safety inspected, detailed, or SMOG’d yet the dealership’s advertising this vehicle for sale. In most cases I wasn’t allowed to road-test the vehicle, and in some cases, inspect the vehicle. Yet, they want to talk terms and conditions right away… that’s CRAZY! I’m here to tell you that California Auto Sales (in Auburn) isn’t that kind of place. My wife and I had appointments scheduled to view cars one Saturday morning. Mind you, we could only schedule appointments for viewing not test-driving (because I’d been searching for a rare breed of Honda truck). But, we decided to drive up to Auburn to take a look at a unit just posted on the web at California Auto Sales. Without appointment, without notification we showed up and were greeted by Haidar. Immediately he offered up the truck for a road test. The truck was in very fine condition, the shakedown cruise proved it was as drivable as it was clean! Without haggle, without pressure to add warranty work or other up-pricing techniques. Haidar cut the paper work, we went down to the Auburn Golden-1, delivered a down payment check (followed by a residual payment on Monday) and drove the Honda Ridgeline home that Saturday. After visiting several dealerships from the bay area to Sacramento I can only say that dealing with the folks at California Auto Sales was the most pleasant and satisfying experience we had the entire month we’d been searching for a vehicle to buy.

The car was already sold. - Bill

The car was already sold. They had The add still up. A disappointment for us . We were going to drive over and buy it.

2017 Kia Rio - Brianna21

I had an amazing experience purchasing a car at the Laurel Kia of Maryland! I didn’t have to spend hours at the dealership everything was smooth and easy! Darrel was my salesman and was extremely professional and helped me find the perfect car!!!!

These guys were real nice when I came in to buy my car. But since then, they have been punking me on my spare tire, and the $1500 warranty that I paid for when I bought the car. They have nice cars at decent prices, but after sales service sucks big time. I got a good deal but for all the trouble it was not worth it. If you buy from them, make sure you thoroughly check your car so that it has EVERYTHING because you will not get any after sales support.

What to say about Cammisa Motor Car Company. First, the... - dwrightsman

What to say about Cammisa Motor Car Company. First, the salesman, Ron de Vogel rocks. Genuinely nice and attentive. In fact all their staff was top notched. The real bad experience comes with the financing and what has to be the most "paranoid" approach to financing. The vehicle I was to purchase had an out the door price of 28k ( a good price for the vehicle). Half that amount I would pay cash for the remainder I had a pre-approval from my lending institution. So basically a done deal. However, regarding the financing Cammisa chose to send the loan application to two additional institutions even though my Credit Union had pre approved. Cammisa received full payment when promised consisting with my own funds as well as my Credit Union however the other two financing companies who received the loan application denied the loan and thereby hurt my credit rating for the future. Now for what I find most upsetting. I have made numerous contacts with the loan manager, Jim Morrison, and to date have not received a single word or contact back. So I rate the salesman quite high. The friendliness equally as high. But if you plan to finance a vehicle with them do not trust them to do the right thing. If you have cash or are pre financed do not use their financing. In that situation I would recommend them.

Excellent experience - j.davis

I just had the greatest car buying experience thanks to car1234. They’ve attended me beautiful, showed me the car I saw online and made the magic happen. My wife and I are super pleased with our new car. The guy from finance was probably the best finance experts we’ve talked to, he explained everything thoroughly and gave us the best experience when it comes to financing. It’s my first car and it was the best experience I have ever had. Definitely, recommend these guys if you want the best car buying experience! Thank you!

A Blessing - animarie79

Car Champs helped me when nobody else would! They were courteous and understanding. They listened to what I was looking for and gave me options. I recommend Car Champs to anyone that has been unsuccessful in purchasing a car or had a downright bad experience with other dealers.

Buyers beware! - beads.chili

Buyers beware! We were excited to buy a Jeep 2012 for the advertised price of $11,995. When I asked Martin, the salesman, why the price was bumped to $12,995 he told us it was for bank fees. Shady way of doing business!

I have nothing to say since there was no response. I merely inquired whether a particular vehicle remained available

Exceptional service ! - Raeofsonshine

By far the best vehicle buying experience my husband and I have ever had. Thank you so much, James, John and Chris.You will be highly recommended to everyone we know who is looking to purchase something to drive.

I had an awesome experience with this dealer! - Laura A.

Mike and Marco at Carco Sales expedited my transaction--as I asked them to. One month after I bought my car--I complained about a charge on my contract and much to my surprise they were eager to make sure I was totally satisfied with my purchase. They are refunding the charge I have contested. I have bought a lot of cars in my life and never been treated this good from a used dealership. They are awesome! I will tell all of my friends and family and I will definitely come back to see them for my next purchase. (LA)

I think each of the 100 miles each way was worth it - VikyAsta

When you go to a high-end, classic car dealer, you might not expect the Maserati treatment when you're buying a three-year-old MINI Cooper. But that's just what I got from Tom and Brent. I couldn't be happier with my purchase or the easy and respectful dealings from these guys. The car is pristine! I drove all the way down from LA to get my car, and I think each of the 100 miles each way was worth it.

Dishonest, Cheat, Liar, Thief - PabloBened

We bought a car from Curt Bettiker, CAROLOGY off of EBay. The pictures looked good, as did the description. It was described as "clean and recently serviced." The sales agreement stated that there were NO undisclosed defects, damage or mechanical problems. When the vehicle arrived, we discovered $7,000 of mechanical defects and hidden damage. The vehicle had body damage, cracked windshield, torn seat, broken seat belts, ripped window screens, transmission and engine troubles. We tried for over a week to contact CAROLOGY via email, telephone and EBay messaging - to no avail. When we finally posted negative feedback on EBay, Curt Bettiker suddenly arose from his coma. He offered to pay $1,500 towards the defects, but ONLY after we removed the negative feedback. We finally agreed to accept $500, before removing the feedback. Of course, you guessed it... he went dark and fell off of the grid never sending the final $1,000 that he promised. EBay Motors stepped in. After reviewing the images in the original auction listing and the sales contract with the NO DEFECTS claim, they agreed that CAROLOGY had been fraudulent. We realized that CAROLOGY had cropped the images or had taken them from angles that did not accurately reflect the condition of the vehicle (they hid the damages). EBay's Buyers Assurance Program eventually paid for our losses. CAROLOGY is not to be trusted. Curt Bettiker is a a thief and con-artist. Do your internet search engine research on him and his company. You will find many moral, ethical and legal transgressions . I wish I had done more due diligence prior to entering into a purchase agreement. I would have started taking the bus to work.

I purchased my Tesla model Y from Cars Delivered and I’m glad I did. Harry was awesome from start till end. The car was exactly as advertised. It’s a small dealership and I like that I was treated like their number 1 priority every time I called or text. Harry was patient with working with my credit union for financing and made sure I got my car as quickly as possible. I will definitely come back and recommend anyone I know that is looking for a new car! Thank you Harry and Cars Delivered.

Buyer Beware! Dealer not honest... - di9959

Buyer Beware! Dealer did not disclose my car had body work on the passenger side and the entire passenger side was repainted when I bought the car. The Carfax was clean but the Lexus dealership told me that the Carfax is only as good as the body shops that report on it. This dealer first told me the dent was made by someone leaning up against the car, then the story changed to multiple dents(have texts of conversation) Point is he wasn't honest, I could have walked away and purchased another vehicle but it was too late, it was a good price for a car that didn't have body work. It is going to a good body shop for repairs on the passenger side. Don't trust him, or the Carfax on the car he is selling, buyer beware!

It's a good dealership and will work with you no matter - anthoneeo1218

It's a good dealership and will work with you no matter the look of it

They helped me so much with my car and I'd just like to... - Richardgreaney

They helped me so much with my car and I'd just like to express my thanks. My check engine light was on, and I wasn't sure what to do. I stopped by there office and they took a look at it for free for me. They even offered me some really useful advice on how to fix it. I have to say for any car stuff this is the place to go. They didn't try to push anything on me, and helped me out, in my book that's an awesome company.

Word Not to Be Trusted - Robert

If a repair, part or action is needed on the vehicle you want to purchase at this dealership, DO NOT sign the purchase agreement until that repair, part or action is completed. A handshake or verbal agreement is not to be trusted. I purchased a 2009 Lexus SUV "as is". I was OK with the car except for a cargo cover that was missing. Mark Jaffe, general manager, agreed to provide one and gave me a due bill for same. Check back in a week, he said. I did. Oh, the pick and pull didn't have one. They would order one from E-Bay, have it next week. No luck again, but now they were able to get one from the pick and pull and they were taking it to UPS for shipment. Nothing received. Oh, the guy taking it to UPS lost it, couldn't explain how, so they fired him. Finally, a call from Mark saying they were shipping one via the US Post office with a tracking number. The USPO confirmed they were told to expect a package with that number, but that no package ever arrived. Could you go to small claims court and get a judgement to enforce the due bill? Yes, but you still would need to actually collect on the due bill. If they weren't so pathetic, their excuses would be funny. Bottom line: don't trust these guys farther than you can throw them. If a part, repair, or action is needed for the car you want to buy, be willing to walk away from the deal unless it's completed before you sign anything. Oh, by the way there may also be a level of incompetence here. Turned out paperwork with the state DMV was also messed up.

The people at norm reeves honda (used car lot) were very helpful and i found the car i wanted in less that a month. I told them what i wanted and as soon as a vehicle hit their lot with my criteria they called me and it was a done deal. Thanks Ceasar at Norm Reaves Honda

Peaceful Relaxing Experience - Jeanette

Very impressed with this dealer! I had made several phone calls/texts asking many questions about the 2014 Van I was interested in and he responded quickly and never sounded like a salesman. I felt like I was talking to an old family friend. I went down to test drive the van and he was so pleasant and easy to talk and deal with. Never even acted like he was trying to sell a car. I was so relaxed by this easy way of selling a car. Absolutely no pressure. Clean nice lot. I drove the van on a heat wave day 110+ and I wasn't sure that the a/c was cold enough and he said he would guarantee it. I drove it again and it was fine. Two weeks after we bought the van the tires were found to have a manufacture defect and he replaced them. He offers a 30 day warranty. My husband didn't have the time to look and talk with dealers so I need to (not something I really wanted to do!) I definately recommend Chris!

Found these guys online on cars.com and realized they had one of the lowest prices around on a honda civic I was interested in. I called them and was transferred to the sales dept. A gentleman by the name of Amir answered the phone and I told him I lived a few hours away and that my credit was not the best. He had me fill out an application online and got back to me within 15 minutes or so which was great because I had not yet heard back from any of the other dealers I had acquired at. So I went down and within an hour after drove off in my lovely Honda. Overall it was a great experience and I highly recommend Corona Motors!!
