Andrew Hidalgo was our salesman here and he was very helpful and thorough. He guided us through the whole process with as much transparency as one would hope.. The manager of the dealership made sure we were happy with the car before we signed off.

Amazing service, Justin at here is very helpful and amazing, he put his everything to try and help me as much he could , amazing guy

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.

I am very appreciative with the help we received. The process of purchasing was smooth. Very happy with Andrew’s service.

**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!

I had an amazing experience at California motors direct! Andrew was incredibly helpful and made the entire car-buying process smooth and stress-free. He worked with me to find the perfect car and went above and beyond to get me a great deal. I was able to trade in my old vehicle for a very fair price, and he made sure I drove off the lot the same day with a low monthly payment that fit my budget.
