After a few dealerships, our last stop was this dealership. I was very specific in what car I wanted, and Zach was able to help me find it within my budget. The manager and everyone there was also very friendly and welcoming! Had a great experience finding the perfect car for me. Much better than my first car buying experience.

The staff was really welcoming and helped me in finding the car for me! Anthony helped with getting the perfect price that met my budget. Tamer also made sure the car was functioning properly and replaced anything that may have been missing and met my expectations before driving off the lot. He made the process super smooth and was very detailed with what I was getting into and explained thoroughly every detail about financing and answered every question I had. He also helped get a reassurance if anything was wrong with the car that I could go back to him for help. Overall exceptional!

No complaints for our sales rep. Justin Flores was very accommodating and patient with the sale and was able to answer all of my questions. Fees are negotiable so I was happy to get some discounts on that side of things. The purchase worked out in the end. Watch out for fees and unnecessary warranties. Good people.

**5 Stars - Exceptional Experience!** I recently purchased a car from California Motors Direct, and I couldn’t be more impressed with the entire experience. From the moment I walked in, I was greeted with warmth and professionalism by Johnny, who made the entire process smooth and stress-free. Johnny took the time to understand my needs, answered all my questions, and walked me through every step of the purchase, making sure I felt comfortable and informed. The selection of cars was top-notch, and Johnny went above and beyond to help me find the perfect vehicle within my budget. The dealership itself is clean, well-organized, and has a friendly atmosphere, making the whole experience enjoyable. What really stood out was Johnny’s genuine care for ensuring I was happy with my choice and that I fully understood the details of the financing options available to me. I left feeling confident and excited about my new car. I highly recommend California Motors Direct, and especially Johnny, if you're in the market for a new or used vehicle. They truly make you feel like a valued customer every step of the way!
