Make sure you speak to Johnny! Super helpful, was desperate for a car as my transmission went out. Called and spoke to Johnny and told him hey I have a repo and a credit score of low 500’s but I can put some money down if you can help. Filed out credit app and he got back with me in 5 mins, held the car I wanted and sent me pic and videos. I had to catch a train from LA to get here he even offered to pick me up from the train station. Pulled up and he had me drive off the lot the same day and was in and out in less than 2 hours! Highly recommend Johnny and this cat lot!!

Josh is a great sales person he made everything run smooth. He even booked me a trip over here all the way from Santa Clarita (3hr trip). I would say he went above and beyond and would highly recommend him to all of my friends and family. He definitely exceeded my expectations. At the end, he even filled up my gas tank and had my car fully detailed. Wonderful person.

Amazing experience from the moment I called to see a vehicle was still available. This is my 3rd vehicle I’ve purchased from them. Josh and Keith made my 3rd time buying experience with them better than the first 2 times. Caring to my my family and even help keep my 3 year old daughter calm during the process by offering snacks and pen and paper to drawl not including the awsome Christmas ornaments they gave her. Very detail process they have will be back again thanks fellas
