Virgil ensures my ride is always in prime condition, making recommendations only when necessary. No matter the issue, he knows my truck, the service that's needed, and keeps everything ready to go for whatever I throw at it! I always enjoy chatting with Virgil at the end of the visits! There is no other place I would take my 4Runner.

Virgil and his crew are absolutely brilliant mechanics. I truly believe they could fix any problem. I have taken my 1989 Toyota pickup to them 3 times now, and they have done a perfect job every time. They repaired the EGR system when Chk Eng light came on, fixed the throttle position sensor when truck was running rough, and installed new timing chain set. Virgil knows Toyotas inside and out, 30+ yrs of experience, and you will not find a more honest, hardworking and knowledgeable guy. He's a nice guy to talk to too. Do yourself a favor, go here. You won't regret it

Virgil and his team are extremely trustworthy and straightforward with their diagnosis and pricing. Always keeps to schedule - and I never had an issue Virgil fixed that I had to go back again for. Top notch service here, highly recommend.

I love this shop! Very honest and friendly. The owner runs a great business and is very fair with prices. Another shop spent a month with my Yaris and couldn’t figure out the issue - Toymasters figured it out in a day. I can’t recommend this shop enough! Thank you!

Been going here since I had my first car in 2003. Whether I had a Toyota, Honda, Lexus they would always get my car running right and maintained well. I've taken my cars to other shops for location convenience, but the job just doesn't get done right. Then I end up taking my car to Toymasters to fix the last shop's mistakes and corners that they probably cut. I've learned the hard way and is why I'm willing to travel a bit to always take my cars tk Toymasters. It's well worth it. Virgil is super helpful making sure my car is in tip top shape and makes sure the work completed thoroughly. I always recommend friends and family with Toyotas, Lexus, Hondas or any other JDM car to get their car serviced here. I'm even surprised I see my friends there that I've recommended years ago. This place is also perfect for getting a pre-purchase inspection when buying any used car to make sure you're getting the best deal. Virgil, the owner, really knows his stuff being in the industry for 35+ years. They got my 1999 Tacoma running like it's brand new.

Had an issue where my car alarm was going off at random times (day & night) which was a major issue for my neighbors. My mechanic couldn’t figure it out and told me to see a key/alarm shop. After 3 weeks of effort and $$$$ they still couldn’t figure it out either. Took to Virgil and within three days he had it solved and it hasn’t been an issue since. He was beyond thorough and very transparent about where he was in the repair! Fair prices and amazing service. It’s great to know I don’t have to look any further for a mechanic!

This is the place if you drive a Toyota or Lexus! They really are experts when it comes to Toyota! I came in THINKING I knew what was wrong with my car (parts in hand..) and I was wrong, most shops would have taken my money and sent me on my way... the owner at Toymasters did the opposite, he tried to talk me out of throwing my money away! Super nice people, honest, and experts on all things Toyota! This is my go to now!

I can't praise Virgil enough for his exceptional service at Toymasters on Ventura. I've entrusted him with my 2005 4Runner, 2007 RAV4, and 2007 Mazda for over four years, and I've consistently been more than satisfied with his work. Virgil's honesty about repairs and his reasonable pricing have made him my go-to mechanic. What truly sets Virgil apart is his commitment to customer service and the quality of his work. He consistently goes above and beyond, providing not just repairs, but an outstanding experience. Whether it's his expert advice, friendly demeanor, or meticulous attention to detail, Virgil ensures every visit to Toymasters is worthwhile. If you're in need of reliable, trustworthy, and skilled automotive service, Virgil at Toymasters is your man. He's not just a mechanic; he's a genuine, helpful, and skilled professional who's always willing to lend a hand. I can confidently say that Virgil has made my experiences at Toymasters truly exceptional, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend his services to anyone in need of top-notch automotive care. Five stars and two thumbs up for Virgil and the team at Toymasters!

Virgilio at Toymasters is the best mechanic I've come across. After the Pep Boys (poop boys) wrote off my electrical problem and made it worse, Virgilio took my 1999 Toyota 4Runner in and fixed it and got all my battery level output and wiring up to Toyota standards. Seriously, if there's anyone who knows cars- especially your old Toyota off road toy, Virgilio is your guy WITHOUT breaking the bank. There is no hustling, misinformation, or malpractice performed here that you do see with other mechanics, such as Pep Boys. When you go to Toymasters, you are ensuring the best mechanical care for your car hands down. I would recommend Toymasters to anyone with any car issues. Thank you Virgilio!!!!
