Easy, smooth, fast experience buying my second car from Anthony Fernandez. The manager Ben was very helpful and kept me updated with everything. Strongly recommend to ask both of them. Also another employee Adan was helpful there as well. Over all this company is great

Zach got me what I asked for as far as monthly payments after a bit of negotiating. He was pleasant and professional. He even went above and beyond by transporting vehicles closer to me from other lots so that I could test drive them and even taking pictures of me in the cars so I could decide on which one I would look better in lol. I would recommend buying a used car from this place and I just may be back myself.

Financing a car is never an easy smooth thing but I personally felt ready to come in and go through the process. Eric is the person who assisted me buying my new car. We did a lot of messaging before I physically came in, he waited late night for me to test drive and encouraged me to trade in my Old car. His advice and guidance helped helped a lot. I recommend anyone to come in and meet with Eric for your next vehicle purchase.

My wife found the car we needed online. We setup an appointment in the morning for the next day with Nick. He made the entire buying process very easy and we were able to make a deal that was beneficial to the both of us. I very much recommend coming to see California Motors Direct. The car had a small dent and paint chip and he offered to have it repaired at no cost. This is the company you need to buy a used car from!
