I’ll keep it nice and simple. Ali was hospitable for the most part and is a very nice person like the other reviews say but I’m sure that just comes with being a salesman. Only pro tho sort of, now let’s move on to the cons.
Now when it comes to the 2008 ES 350 I purchased, it’s a different story. It’s been 3 months since I purchased the car now and I am running into so many issues starting from brakes to misfiring/evap fault codes. Car seemed a bit off to begin with but it didn’t have any codes at the time so I went ahead and bought it. After 3k miles of driving that’s when the issues started to happen. Absolutely no hard driving and even did a fresh fluid flush, which the previous owner and both dealerships neglected to do under their ownership. The fluids were bad, beyond bad. I tried to negotiate the price because I had a hunch this car was going to need minimum $1.5-2k to get to good condition but unfortunately the negotiated price was not close to my counter offer. But either way I purchased it because I didn’t think it would have more underlying issues. I am definitely regretting this purchase.
Will update this review as my mechanic starts to tear down everything which would of been impossible pre purchase since these issues wouldn’t have been found unless we took apart the car or ran it for thousands of miles which is not possible without purchasing. Should have kept my options even wider than it already was, not very happy with this purchase, kind of feel like I was mislead/duped.

I had a great experience when I recently purchased a 2016 Kia Sedona from American Motors. The team was kind and professional. They ensured I had a warranty that was suitable for my purchase, and reviewed all the features of the vehicle. They even allowed an extended test drive. The manager Saeid "Sam" was friendly and efficient and had me finished with my purchase in 30 minutes. He even offered me a ride from the train station Overall, I'd highly recommend American Motors to anyone looking for a great, honest, car buying experience.

I saw an add for a car on the Internet & within 24 hours it was mine! I arrived and immediately the man brought the keys we drove and he pointed out some stuff and there was no hard salesman ship just a conversation. It's a small place but clean and the 2 gentleman that assisted me was super warm and friendly. There was no confusion and everything was explained. We moved the process at my speed and I felt at ease. I don't remember feeling comfortable at a dealership before. I've had the car for almost 2 months and I love it. I discovered that the radio face doesn't work and the CD player but I didn't ask and as long the engine and brakes and all that is good then those are superficial and unimportant - I make do. I recommend going here.

Sam and the other guys were courteous and professional to work with. They really have a wide selection of used/new vehicles to choose from. I would recommend purchasing your car here. Really like the Nissan I purchased from them.

After doing months of research on how to inspect/purchase a used car, I had a good experience here. Ali was very patient, he let me inspect the car for about 30 minutes - 1 hour and we then went on a test drive. Car worked really well and Ali also did mention some dent that used to be on the side of the car which I was fine with, so I like the honesty. Of course not all cars are perfect so I hope everyone is doing their research beforehand, my car is workin good though :D

First time car buyer and I never realized it could be so smooth! Kudos to Sam and team for accommodating and making things so easy, especially driving up from San Diego. The car was recently serviced and detailed with new tires, can't ask for much more!

I live in San Diego and I was searching for a late model Mini Cooper Clubman. I came across a beautiful Mini at a great price. I messaged American Motors though the website and a short time later Ali reached out to me. The next morning he called me again and I agreed to drive up to Stanton. When I got there I was very impressed with the quality of his cars on the lot. I drove the car and loved it. I had a trade in and Ali agreed to give me what Cramax offered me. Then Ali arranged financing for me at a local credit union. Everything he did in the deal was for my benefit. This was the best used car purchase experience I ever had.

Ali at American Motors was super nice, low pressure, answered phone calls and seemed very genuine... I got the feeling he wanted me to be happy with my purchase. No one likes car shopping, but I would go there again if/when I need another car!

Ali and Saied both made the car buying experience very pleasant. Carfax info included and everything. No complaints whatsoever. I wish them nothing but the best and if I know anyone in the market for a good used car I know where to direct them. I will always keep American Motors in mind from here on out.

I had been shopping for a Toyota Sienna minivan for my son. I found a beautiful example of one at American Motors. This minivan has a brand new paint job and an absolutely beautiful interior.
I spoke with Ali over the phone and I liked him right away. He is friendly, personable and straightforward. I have bought and sold many cars, And this was by far one of the smoothest transactions at a dealer I have experienced. We came to an agreement over the phone on a price, and in person the price we agreed on did not change one penny.
If you are in the market for a used car, I can definitely recommend American Motors!! Speak directly to Ali, and tell him that David sent you.
