Had a great experience with Alex G. He drove all the way to West Covina to pick up a car that I liked. Also, they fixed a flaw that I did not like and had no problem with it. They fixed it, detailed it and had it ready when they promised I highly recommend this place it is not shady. All these dealerships in Naco or shady. This one is not.

Hassle free experience, and great selections. I was able to work out a deal with Dillan. He was very respectful. I was even able to call ahead and tell him what car I was interested in and he had it ready for me when I arrived. I definitely recommend this place if you are interested in a reliable car. They have a good stock of low mileage vehicles with single previous owners.
