From my Google review: I had an excellent experience purchasing my 2025 RAV4 Plug-in Hybrid at Ventura Toyota. Jim McArdle was my sales agent and I also originally went on a test drive with Luis Martine purchasing my 2025 RAV4 Plug-in Hybrid at Ventura Toyota. Jim McArdle was my sales agent and I also originally went on a test drive with Luis Martinez. What I really liked was neither were high pressure salesmen which immediately made me feel comfortable, unlike the dealership in Santa Barbara. Jim was patient and responsive to my phone calls. By the time I made up my mind to purchase this car (took a few months), there were none left at any of the southern California Toyota dealerships in the color and trim I wanted. So Jim went the extra measure to find one that was due off the ship later in the month to a different dealer and did some sort of magic to have it go to Ventura. The price they quoted me early in the process was the same as what I paid in the end. No pressure to purchase any add ons. I really appreciate how my experience was so straightforward! More

We had a very positive overall smooth and even enjoyable experience working with Jim McArdle. He was professional and provided excellent support throughout the process. We found the car online and left our experience working with Jim McArdle. He was professional and provided excellent support throughout the process. We found the car online and left our information and Jim followed up quickly with a phone call. Since we live in Glendale we could not just drop by, it required some planning. He was very helpful in setting up a time when the car would be available for us to see. Jim was knowledgeable and good at guiding us with different options during the finance process which we really appreciated as we already had one big Mercedes payment and wanted to keep this payment lower, so needed to know how much to put down. Thanks for making the sometimes stressful part comfortable! Shout out to Anna the financial person for making her part enjoyable for us! The Ventura Toyota seemed to have an all over positive good vibe! More

We just wanted to personally thank Jim McCardle for the exceptional service he provided during our recent visit. We visited Ventura Toyota on Thursday while exploring our options for a new vehicle, and exceptional service he provided during our recent visit. We visited Ventura Toyota on Thursday while exploring our options for a new vehicle, and although we ultimately decided to go with a Honda CR-V (due to its cargo space and comfort), we felt compelled to share what an exceptional experience we had — all thanks to Jim. Jim was, without a doubt, the best salesperson we interacted with throughout our entire car search. His genuine Midwest charm, professionalism, and deep product knowledge made us feel at ease right away. He was patient, honest, and never once made us feel pressured — just incredibly helpful and sincere. He went above and beyond to walk us through features, answer every question, take a test drive and make sure we had everything we needed to make an informed decision. If we were choosing purely based on the sales experience, Jim would’ve won hands down. Toyota is lucky to have someone like him on their team, and we would wholeheartedly recommend anyone in the market to go see Jim first. Thank you again, Jim — you truly set the bar high. More
