They were friendly and responsive but the car had some issues that they said they would either fix or look into fixing and then they wouldn’t budge on the price. I think that’s they’re style, no haggling, which I can appreciate but we bought the same car without the issues for $1k less at another lot.

Me Dmitry Starbucks is one of the sale advisor I would like to buy a car from.. he is very professional and patient .. a carefully listener and good advisor .. I wasn’t able to purchase the car a like from him due doubt on the reliability of the car I wanted to buy and the price but I’m sure one day I will make a deal with him.. Promote him now to sale manager !
Jun 2, 2023
Quick communication and they answered what I
asked. Unfortunately the car sold before we arrived but
we will try them again.

van was $41000. I called
them back asked about the
out the door they said it would

market was getting that. I
thought ans decided to wait.

Professional client attention
Very informative and friendly
Feb 21, 2021
very responsive, friendly and helpful.
WORST DEALER! I contacted them about a deal for $13,500 and after asking a bunch of questions and tear driving it, we sat down to go over the all cash deal when they dropped another $4,500 onto the prices for fees and additional unavoidable packages that they supposedly already installed. It is absolutely insane what they did and no one should work with them.
I see that they have done this to multiple people based on the reviews... they are a really disrespectful and bad company.
Nov 25, 2020
Very quick to respond to my inquiry, unfortunately the vehicle they had was not the one that I was interested in.
Nov 12, 2020
Communication, on site experiences, great customer service, I will recommend you

Mar 7, 2020
Nellie and Alfred made us feel very comfortable with their no pressure approach. They answered all our questions and were helpful. Bought our 2017 500e with very low miles. Paid a great price.
Jan 17, 2020
Beautiful truck, as advertised. Custer service was good.
Aug 9, 2019
Awesome no pressure car buying experience.
Jul 5, 2019
outstanding service. courteous and attentive. pricing is pretty much non-negotiable from the quoted price, but on this car they did offer 6 mos. warranty and a full tank of diesel. I paid more than Los Angeles, but I saved a lot of time, gasoline and hassle by buying local. A QUALITY DEALERSHIP!
Jun 2, 2019
Great response time.

Wonderful.
Jan 24, 2019
These guys were really attentive and helpful. Very professional. Felt like a franchise dealer. Just didn’t have what I needed.
Jan 2, 2019
Hats off to the guys at Auto City, they really bent over backwards to make my buying experience second to none, and it was New Years Eve to boot!
Dec 19, 2018
Great car buying experience. Dimitri, Alford and Franck were knowledgeable, helpful and professional.
Dec 17, 2018
Eric was very responsive
Nov 19, 2018
It was great. Auto city made it so easy to buy the scion t.c.. we where in and out with the car in 2 hours. It was simple from test drive to leaving with the car. Great place to buy a car. When it comes time to buy a new truck we will be going back to Auto City.
Jul 28, 2018
Awesome service!! Quick and easy...Also, great financing
May 1, 2018
Very knowledgeable sale staff. Courteous and accommodating. Large
inventory of good deals. And very flexible financing. I would recommend
them to anyone looking for a quality used car at a reasonable price.
Apr 27, 2018
Efficient and friendly.
I attempted to contact this dealer by email regarding this car. No response. A few weeks later I called the dealer and they said the car was sold. 2 week later and this car is still on car guru. I believe this post is just bait to get people onto the lot. The old bait and switch. Sketchy...
Mar 19, 2018
Mike contacted with in a few hours , I set up a appointment to see a few cars ....... test drove
A Toyota Rav / Mike answered all the questions I had , was very professional and friendly as well ...... I put a hold on the car for a few days to think it over called back and bought the car ........ The whole experience
At Audio City was efficient and painless ...... easiest car buying experience I ever had. They also allowed me to take the car to my mechanic to check it out ....... got the thumbs up on the quality of the Rav and that sealed the deal for me .
Mar 14, 2018
Excellent...service..friendly people..good experience...

Great car buying experience
So far 2 stars, I spoke with one gentlemen who was going to get back to me and he never did, I called and then was helped by Robert, Robert was very helpful and got me a price a little over what the other guy promised (sadly I don't remember his name). I wasn't sure on that price since it was just a bit over, and later that afternoon I kept messaging Robert and nothing. This morning I thought ok let me follow up, sent a text nothing, called him and sent me to voicemail. Once I ask for something in writing that they will get me a deal I don't hear back. Sucks because I was really interested in getting SUV but I guess not! Not even a call back to tell me no they can't
Dec 22, 2017
Response from current dealership:
Hello Gabby, thank you for the review. We do not have an employee named Robert and never had. Could you please verify that you wanted to leave a review for Auto City in El Cajon? Additionally, we are a one price store, so there are never price issues as you are describing as there is only one price for a car and there is no haggling. Thank you!
Oct 11, 2017
It was a great experience, I love my Nissan Rogue! Thank you Auto City!
Jul 26, 2017
I went from walking in the door for a test drive to walking out with my purchase in 60 minutes. Excellent service and a no haggle atmosphere.
Jul 19, 2017
Very helpful, made video contact which I liked.
They reached out promptly. However when I mentioned
there were several similar Frontiers - similar mileage and
features and asked about the price - once - the contact get
super defensive and said they were no haggle and I was
trying to "grind on dealers for hours." That turned me off
and I bought somewhere else.
Jul 9, 2017
I had the opportunity to work with Tim. Very helpful and knowledge.
Jun 24, 2017
Great service, contacted me right away, never pushed me to get anything I didn't want, friendly and very professional. Am very happy with my car -- highly recommend Auto City!
They're a bit excessive. They call several times a day asking the same questions about my car of interest. I guess in some ways it shows they want your business and will work to get you a good deal, but it's more of a turn off to be called by multiple people at multiple times a day. I guess it's better than not hearing from someone at all ? Maybe ?
Jun 3, 2017
they were very helpful.
Apr 22, 2017
Ramil was amazing to work with. He was extremely knowledgeable about the vehicle I was interested in and went above and beyond. He seemed genuinely interested in helping me find the best fit, which doesn't seem very common. Unfortunately the vehicle I was interested in was sold by the time I was going to commit. Looking purchasing my next vehicle from Ramil and Auto City.
Apr 21, 2017
It was a great experience. Very relaxed, no high pressure. Ramil was
wonderful to work with. Love my Mini Cooper! Would definitely recommend
Auto City.
Apr 17, 2017
This was the quickest and most pleasant experience I've had buying a
car. Our sales person was so neat and thorough. And, the car is great,
very clean and well-prepped.
Mar 29, 2017
Satisfied with response.
Mar 29, 2017
The best car buying experience ever.
Mar 28, 2017
Pleasant respectful and fast They went out of
their way to make the day easy. No pressure. Very
pro and low key. Would buy another car there.
Mar 24, 2017
Great people.
Mar 7, 2017
The experience I had with Auto City was great. There was a huge selection
on their website and when I visited their store the vehicles were neatly
organized and very clean. They had several fuel efficient vehicles to choose
from which was the main consideration for my purchase. The price included
a warranty and return policy which put me at ease. I had the vehicle
inspected by a third party and everything checked out. Great job Auto City!
My purchase experience was fast and easy!!
Jan 1, 2017
They have great prices and you don't have to haggle.
Nov 17, 2016
Very helpful!
Oct 19, 2016

Was a descent man and seemed very ready to make an appt. unfortunately I was very busy that week and haven't had time to go by yet.

So this was my first time buying a car and I had gone online to find what I wanted. After I submitted that I was interested in a car, Abel from Auto City got back to me almost immediately and was more than willing to help me find what I needed. He gave me a call and we set up a time for me to come look at and test drive the vehicle. Although I was pretty set on the car I wanted and knew just about everything I needed to know about it prior to arriving to Auto City, Abel still asked if I had any questions about anything through the duration of the sale. The test drive was amazing! I felt good being able to drive around before a bought the car. Granted just about every Lot allows test driving but, I thought I was cool. Especially since I didn't know the area, Abel rode along and gave me directions as we went along. Also we had a tendency to nonchalantly crack jokes during the signing part; which was a lot of signing but, that brought a bit of humor and helped pass the time as we went through. After everything was done and the paperwork was finalized I had a friend of mine snap a few pics and Abel snapped a few too. He made sure to send the picture to me along with a follow up phone call to make sure everything was still running smoothly. I've had my car for about 3 weeks now and it is still treating me well. I believe I made the right choice coming to Auto City for my first car purchase. They made it clear that they want me to enjoy my new vehicle and I think I will.
May 9, 2016
They were friendly and let me test drive the car alone. I did not end up
purchasing a Toyota but would recommend anyone to them.
Apr 29, 2016
I did not purchase a vehicle form this dealership. However, they did respond quickly and did follow up shortly to answer question. I couldn't speak beyond that regarding the actual experience of purchasing a care.
Apr 28, 2016
I got a quick response.
Apr 6, 2016
promptly , great job ,I will be going back ,great cars and friendly
folks

Excellent Jose Martinez responded to all my questions.
I bought this gem and Jose made this an thoroughly enjoyable
experience
Feb 29, 2016
Good deals
Oct 28, 2015
Went to dealership no one
acknowledged me looked for the
car I was interested in myself
which I didn't find. There was
another customer looking for a
car by himself as well. So I must
say poor customer service!!!
Oct 21, 2015
They were fantastic! I ended up purchasing this car. I worked
with Fraser and he was extremely helpful and kind. I would go
back to Auto City Sales again!
While I did not purchase a car with Auto City Sales, I found Ramil to be a wonderful car salesman in my interactions with him. He was very low key and respected my time by not calling to hassle me about the latest deals. I contacted other places through CarGuru and I was called three to four times a day. I called Ramil several times but ultimately found another one via a private transaction. I had originally looked at cars through a well known resale place and had a horrible experience. I found a car I liked and was going to purchase it but changed my mind. The salesperson went into a tirade about how I was making a big mistake, was being ripped off, etc. Basically this salesperson was telling me I was wrong, totally disrespecting me and showing me the worst customer service I think I have ever experienced! I was just a number who would provide the salesperson with a commission. Am I going back there??? No! If things do not work out for me, I would definitely deal with Ramil again. No tirades. He said just call me back if I can help you. I am really impressed by him. I think the low key approach that Ramil has is the way to go
Oct 8, 2015
We found Ramil to be easy to deal with, helpful and honest.
Sep 12, 2015
I had a great experience with
these guys! The whole staff was
friendly and humble. I purchased
my car from them and would
recommend them to all my
friends and family. Thanks Auto
City!
Jul 27, 2015
Auto City has the best deals and best customer service! We would
highly recommend to others!
Jun 14, 2015
Only contact was by phone. Polite and efficient.
Jun 4, 2015
Good price on my vehicle. Trustworthy
company.
Apr 5, 2015
excellent dealer, helpful, good prices
Dec 15, 2014
Excellent experience. Got a return call quickly after my inquiry. They were very professional and did everything they said they would do.
Oct 26, 2014
Tim is a great help, no pressure but available to answer questions. All their cars are ultra clean, they look new. I was told their vehicles are re-conditioned so they are pretty much turn-key (no pun intended)... new tires, brakes if needed, etc. I was hard-pressed to find any dings or scratches on a 2011 car I test drove. Prices are no haggle but fair. They allow customers to have their mechanics inspect vehicles prior to purchase.
Jun 22, 2014
Great
Jun 19, 2014
Ramil contacted me within
minutes and kept in touch while
waiting for our insurnace payout.
We ended up not buying here
because the car was manual, but
I would highly recommend this
dealer to all of my family and
friends!
May 8, 2014
excellent service and awesome people nice doing biz
with them
Apr 9, 2014
I ended up getting a 2008 ford fusion for
6,995. They we straight forward, and
not pushy at all. Great experience.
Mar 2, 2014
Honest. Helpful and
accommodating.
Feb 15, 2014
They were all awesome, we really got a great car gor a great deal.

Nov 11, 2013
I didn't buy but was impressed with the person I dealt with.
Oct 1, 2013
The customer services was out standing and they were very
aggressive on getting me a low APR car loan. Thank you Auto
City Sales for making everything as painless as possible. I will
recommend you to everyone.....
Sep 15, 2013
excellent
May 28, 2013
Sales person was very curt and borderline rude when I asked if
there was any room to perhaps come down a bit as the vehicle was
for my daughter and she had limited funds.
Apr 18, 2013
Very courteous and professional. I went to get a toyota 2007 LE.
Very prompt and helpful.
Apr 9, 2013
Exceptional service, great car! What else can I say? In contrast to CarMax in particular, and other small lots in general, they were candid, kind and sold a great product. I couldn't be happier.
Feb 24, 2013
easy in, easy out
Feb 12, 2013
It was so easy and calm no hassle or pressure
Feb 9, 2013
They are not your stereo typical USED car dealership. We were searching for a decent car that was resonally priced.A used toyota Matrix. The advertised price was firm but lower than others. We went for one car with our own car fax but saw another one that we liked.They gave us a free car fax for the other car.They are very helpful. and were not pushy. Let us take both cars for a test drive with no hassle.They let us inspect the car engines. Once we chose the one we wanted, they even put it on a lift so we could inspect the under carriage. they even offered for us to take it to our mechanic if we wanted. Once were were satistified we proceded with the deal. All the guys are very respectful. We dealt with Stan, who was very patient. Since we just recently bought the car, it is hard to say if we will have any problems, but so far no problems or unusual noises. I would highly recommend them.
Dec 7, 2012
salesman was straight forward, didn't volunteer any bad condition of the vehicle, and they did offer to either fix the simple stuff, but otherwise car condition was "as is". No pressure on sales, so overall a good experience.
