Where do I begin. California Motors Direct is not only one of the best car dealerships I’ve ever been in. As well as extremely low prices that match what they are offering. I got to thank Deshan and Johnny! Deshan hands down needs a raise or something! The way he handled my car as well as keeping me updated throughout the whole process is what I appreciate the most. He understands people’s concerns as well as walked me through the whole deal start to finish! If you going in, always as for deshan! He will make sure you always walk out with a nice car as well as great savings!

Overall it was good experience. Paul was very helpful in getting the car I wanted to fit into my budget and was knowledgeable about the car and all processes.

Deshan is a very nice and efficient salesmen. He tries his best to get you in and out of the dealership without waiting for hours and hours. He also tries his absolute best to give you the best interest rate and price so that you can be happy walking out of the dealership. CMD Montclair is a great place to buy your next car from and not like any other shady place nearby, especially like STG, who has hidden fees and markups! Make sure y’all come in and ask for Deshan for your next car.

I had the pleasure to work with Jesus Felix. It was a great experience, he was honest, professional and friendly. He got me in the car that I wanted. I have great mileage now and although they were about to close. He helped us out. I didn’t feel rushed and we closed the deal! IEAuto exchange works with a reputable bank, offers a known good company for their warranty and I received an awesome interest rate with no down and I have a grace period to go with my own credit union! Thank you Mr. Jesus, you have a very satisfied customer😉❤️🙏🏽 and of course thank you JESUS CHRIST for making this possible.

Called ahead of time, Josh and Abe had everything ready. Although I didn’t opt in on these 2 extras, they have real great prices on Warranty and Theft Protection. I did opt in on gap insurance which was a great price! Great service, car was exactly as advertised! I would come back.

Visited over the weekend. I was impressed with the customer service. A salesman by the name of Noah greeted me soon after I exited my car. He greeted me and allowed me to talk about what I was interested in without being pushy or overbearing like I’ve experienced at other dealerships. Although I wasn’t buying that day as I am working toward a bigger down payment, I will be buying my next car here and hopefully I can have Noah assist me with my purschase.
