The employees were very helpful and professional. The consideration of my needs and wants were fulfilled, allowing me to make a reasonable decision. I expressed my parameters to my sales person (Jovi) and he thoughtfully presented vehicles which I could choose and afford.

When I called I was immediately given an appointment. Got there early. Was accommodated. Luis and Jose was of great help to my husband and I. The vehicle we went to see and purchased is great. We recommend them for your need to purchase a vehicle. No pressure. No non-sense

Positive experience. I have terrible credit and other obstacles that made getting financed for a vehicle almost impossible for me. California Motors Direct worked some magic and made it happen. Yes they did jack up the advertised price on the car, which is why I’m giving four stars and not five , but for people like me with challenged credit and non traditional income, I don’t expect the same deal as someone with a 750 score and years of high income paystubs. The salesman and manager came through for me and I’m so grateful to be given a second chance and finally driving again! Definitely recommend this place to people having a hard time getting financed. They financed me so they will likely help almost any one. Thanks guys!

They have plenty of good choices for used vehicles. Just do your research on the vehicle you really want and understand the process of purchasing a vehicle. Use the internet to educate yourself. Make self-improvement and learning a way of life. Last but not least, take care of your businesses and be a responsible adult to have a really good credit score. I left so happy driving away in a 2008 Honda S2000 that only had 74K miles. Ask for Yami Lopez to get the best service and best understanding of dealership process.

Cristian was my salesman for my 2007 Ford Escape limited vehicle. He was very friendly , accommodating, and patient with me , which I greatly appreciated. His level of professionalism and punctuality was of very high regard. So I suggest booking an appointment with Cristian if you want to finance a vehicle. This was my first time purchasing a vehicle at a dealership and he made the process very quick and simple. I would definitely return in the future and purchase my next vehicle at California Motors Direct, Santa Ana. Thank you to all the staff whom attended me, and made my experience worthwhile! :)

Walked in and was helped immediately by Angel who wasn't pushy at all and took time to carefully explain the important details. Left with a great car that's been fantastic. Would recommend to anyone looking for a replacement vehicle to visit California Motors Direct!

Patrick was such a huge help. Things went pretty much as quickly as they could go in a car dealership, and he was very sweet to our rambunctious two year old. Super happy with our car and service.

My experience here at california motors direct Santa Ana location was excellent. I did my research on what I wanted and they had one. I inspected the car fax and was happy with the vehicle. They only had it for about a week so there were some minor issues that we addressed and we came to an agreement with. They replaced the tires that were balding (very much appreciated). It’s a used car so it’s not perfect. They were very curtious and were patient with me as I wanted to test out several cars before I finally settled on the one I went for. They entire time I was not rushed nor was I pressured into anything. I asked questions and got answers right away and once I told them which car I wanted the paperwork was fairly fast. All in all I had a very good experience here. I’ve seen some bad reviews but I don’t see it while they attended to my needs. Oh and yes, I flew in from Fresno ca to this dealer because they had the car that I had been looking for.

Wow! Beat all my expectations! The lots were full of customers viewing cars. The dealership was more than ready with sufficient staff to help every customer out.Angel was very kind and helpful, he showed us every single vehicle we were interested in, During each test drive he would share detailed information about the vehicle and it’s Carfax history. We did in fact make a purchase and of course during the signing process he took care of us and made the whole experience hassle free and definitely amazing! Thank you so much for everything Angel!
