I had such a wonderful experience working with Mr. Zach Harper when purchasing my car! From the very beginning, he was incredibly kind and welcoming, making the whole process feel easy and stress-free. He has such a great sense of humor, which made what could have been an overwhelming experience actually enjoyable and fun. What impressed me the most was how helpful he was every step of the way. Zach was patient in answering all my questions, explained everything thoroughly, and made sure I felt confident in my decision. He went above and beyond to ensure I got exactly what I wanted without ever making me feel pressured. It’s rare to come across someone who combines professionalism with such a genuine and friendly personality. Zach made buying a car not just simple, but truly a positive memory. I’d absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a car you won’t regret it!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I had an excellent first experience with California Motors Direct in Montclair. From the very beginning, the team was responsive, professional, and efficient. I came in pre-approved with Capital One, and within minutes they reached out with clear answers to all my questions. The entire process was seamless, and I truly appreciated the level of customer service provided. A special thank you goes to Zach, who assisted me directly, his professionalism and knowledge made the experience smooth and enjoyable. Moving forward, I definitely see myself continuing to do business with California Motors Direct and highly recommend them to any buyer looking for a trustworthy and reliable dealership.

We came out this week looking to get a car and initially went to STG, but unfortunately, they couldn’t accommodate our needs. Shortly after, we received a call from an online agent at California Motors Direct, located right next door. We made an appointment to see a Nissan Pathfinder, and upon arrival, we were introduced to Zach Harper. From the moment we met Zach, he was sharp, attentive, and genuinely focused on helping us. He listened carefully to our needs and concerns, and worked tirelessly—going back and forth with options—to get as close as possible to what we were looking for. Thanks to Zach’s determination and outstanding customer service, we drove away with a 2024 Nissan Pathfinder that same day. We couldn’t be happier with the experience. Thank you, Zach!

Thanks to his outstanding customer service, we walked away not only with a great vehicle but also a truly positive experience.
