I'm a foreigner and came to SD for 6 months for work. I've never owned a car before when I bought a 06 Honda Civic from Gerry, only a few days after I had arrived in the US. I knew I wanted either a Honda Civic or Toyota Corolla, since they're very standard sized and equipped cars and known for their reliability. Gerry was very friendly on the phone and in person. He took the time to answer all my questions and explained a lot about the car. For the cars age, Gerry had prepared the Honda Civic he sold to me quite well, done some replacements and had the car cleaned thoroughly inside and outside. I was and still am very happy with the car. The whole buying process was easy and Gerry/Car King took care of the vehicle registration at DMV (a car dealer is obligated to do so). Gerry and his colleague have an office in San Marcos, but they store their cars elsewhere and bring the cars to a public place (in my case a parking lot near to Gerry's home) to meet the customer and show the car. This does at first seem like an unusual practice and maybe a little shady, but don't worry, you are in good hands. Overall I had a pleasant experience that also ended me up with a car in only a few days. I definitely recommend this dealer and Gerry at Car King. read more

Gerry at Car King is the best salesman I have ever worked with! He went out of his way to make sure the Subaru I bought was in perfect condition before he handed over the keys, performing numerous services and had the car looking good as new. He was very friendly and able to answer every question that I had. We met for the test drive at a random parking lot which I thought was strange at first but I was immediately impressed by Gerry's professionalism and passion for his job. I could tell that he really wanted to provide the best possible cars for his customers that would last them a long time and be dependable, which so far my Subaru has has no problems whatsoever and run great in the five months I have owned it. I feel so blessed to have found Car King and love the car I got, and 100% would return for my next car purchase after the great experience I had. Gerry changed what is usually a stressful time in finding a used car into an enjoyable and most importantly trusting experience knowing that Gerry does everything he can to give his customers great cars. Thanks Gerry! read more

Gerry is awesome! I flew from Las Vegas to San Diego to look at a car. The car was in excellent shape. The maintenance on the car was exceptional. Clean throttle body, new spark plugs, new control arm bushings and sway bar bushings, new Bluetooth stereo with back up camera.. The car was a 2008 honda civic and the interior and exterior of the car was in excellent condition. All automotive dealers should be like Gerry! He really tries to sell a car in the best possible condition so his customers will be satisfied and happy. He even sent me a visor that was missing from the interior that I received in the mail the very next day. I drove the car from San Diego to Las Vegas, over 300 miles with more than 1/4 tank of gas left and it handled like its on rails. Even though the car is 16 years old, it felt like it was new and handled like it was on rails. Very happy with my purchase! Thanks Gerry! read more

Needed a reliable car since my truck is having issues. I've been searching the internet for a Toyota Camry/Corolla that has decent mileage and his affordable. Found a 2006 through here and got in touch with Gerry, who informed me the car was manual and when I told him I couldn't drive manual, he showed me options that were even better and still in my price range. Gerry was enthusiastic about the cars he sells and I can tell he isn't in it for the money, but because he loves getting people into good reliable vehicles. I am in love with my 2012 Scion tC that I would not have known about had it not been for Gerry's sincere effort. I will definitely be recommending anyone I know to go to Gerry if they need a car and will be going back should I ever need a car again. Gerry's genuine care and effort is standout in todays world of car dealers, he is definitely one of kind! read more

Gerry is a great! He sold me my VW Tiguan a few days ago and I am more than pleased. He met me last minute on a Sunday to see the car, let me test drive, and had all the stats and carfax right there for me to see. He knows his cars so he was able to answer every question I had with ease. He offers great fair deals and you get what you pay for. He is easy going and I am overall very happy I bought my car from him! One minor thing; he is a little disorganized. He didn't have a pen, the car interior wasn't super clean (crumbs), and we had to drive him to Staples to print some paperwork. The paperwork process took a while as well. But he took care of every last thing and really made the process easy, albeit long. My advice is BUY YOUR CAR FROM HIM but he patient with him along the way. You can trust Gerry to give you the truth and be a fair honest man. read more

We were looking for a car for our teenage daughter. We had a limited budget but wanted something safe and reliable. We had been searching for 4 months when we found Sherif. He agreed to meet us last minute. He explained what he added to the car and reviewed every part. We inspected the exterior and test drove the car. We thought it was perfect. Even though by this time it was early evening, Sherif offered to close the purchase that night. It was a seamless process and you could tell he took pride in giving people a good value. He was not out to gouge us or hide any imperfection in the car. We had it checked by our personal mechanic and they thought it was a great car (especially for the price). It's been over a month and the car runs perfectly. We are very happy with the purchase. I would highly recommend Sherif and Car King! read more

Just purchased my very first Audi from Car King Inc. it was recommended by my friends who were really impressed by Sherif's customer service and current inventory. After visiting Sherif's dealership, I have to say, Sherif is the only type of sales person I would want to deal with when purchasing a used car. Sherif is very friendly with no pressure to sell cars. He was very thorough when answering my questions. The best thing about his service that he told me every single detail about the car to help me make a wise decision before purchasing the car. He was genuine, friendly, and made my best experience in a dealership so far. I was really happy with the service and on my decision to buy my first Audi. I highly recommend this dealership to my friends and family. Thanks Sherif for making a smooth and painless car buying experience! read more

After reading others experience, I decided to find out for myself. Looking for a car is intimidating, at best, for me. A used car, even more so. So I was intrigued to see if there was actually a car dealer with integrity, patience, and professionalism who'd care more about my needs vs. sizing me up as to what's in it for them. I'm happy to say I ditto what others are saying about Sherif - it was 5 star experience! He listened to my needs and quickly identified some great inventory. Never any pressure. Extremely pleasant to work with. Very responsive to all my questions. Not only will I return when I'm in the market again, but I will also be referring him to friends when they're looking to buy. read more

I recommend Car King. They gave me the best price on my practically new honda civic 2016 only 31k miles. After looking for cars for a month, other offers would be neither really expensive or the sellers didn't bring me much confidence to trusted on what they were selling. The decision to buy a car it's not as easy as I thought. Car king made sure to answer all my question about the financing process and history of the car I was buying. They sale cars with carfax clean. Great prices. Easy process. I recommend if you are going to finance you car to have your credit already aproved by the bank so the process it's early for you and the seller. Totally recommended. I would buy from them again! read more

If I could give Sherif more than five stars I definitely would! My experience with purchasing a car from him was by far the best I've had! He's an honest, genuine person who doesn't pressure you into buying. I ran into issues with purchasing the car I wanted & instead of moving on to another buyer, he worked with me and was patient until I got everything cleared with my bank, despite the many calls he was receiving about the car. What more could you ask for in a dealer! On top of being such a great person he also a collection of cars at affordable prices & I've already begun to tell my family and friends about him! Thanks again Sherif ! I love my Altima !! read more

I purchased a Honda Pilot today from Sherif at Car King. I had never met Sherif before, but he was totally honest, polite, professional, and accommodating. Unlike other dealers, there was no pressure at all! Today was a very pleasant car buying experience for me. I got a really good deal on the car that I purchased, and I am already thinking about purchasing a second car from Car King. I compared prices with different dealers, and Car King's prices are very competitive and fair. I have already told friends and family about my positive experience today at Car King, and I will definitely be back for my next auto purchase! read more

I had a great experience purchasing a car through Car King. Jerry was helpful and responsive. At first, I was cautious after Jerry explained to me that they did not have their own lot and that we would be meeting in a Best Buy parking lot... However, when I went to go look at the car in person, I saw that the car was beautifully maintained and in excellent condition, with the CarFax to back it up. Jerry even went above and beyond to deliver the car to me 25 miles away. Its been two weeks since I bought the car and it has been running wonderfully. Thank you, Jerry!!! read more

I was looking for a commuter car that was inexpensive and didn't have to pay monthly installments for, yet it needed to look nice enough to want to drive. I searched everywhere and i found newer nice cars vut salvaged titles or okay looking cars but too old for my taste. My friend bought a car here and was happy so she recommended I try Car King. Thank you Car King for providing such a clean and reliable car. I had been looking for months at this point. I'll keep you in mind and refer you to any of my friends who are in search of something similar. read more

I've have bought a few cars over the years and many salesmen try to bargain for their commission. However in this case I've earned a great deal of respect from the gentlemen that sold me a 2013 BMW 28I X3 at a reasonable price. With creditable documents such as Carfax, Car guru and Kelly blue book. I must mean that he was not concerned about commission/profit but more concern about what is suitable for my family needs and safety. Car King name superceded itself. Going over and beyond for the people and there wellbeing on the roads. read more

do not buy any cars from this dealership. they have lied to me through the entire process. we waited months for replacement parts they said they had ordered and mailed out to us. haven't received anything. we are still waiting for a key so we can start the car. that's right, they sold us a car with a broken key and promised to replace it. even had it written down in the contract. this dealership is full of liars and people that don't stand by their products or words. don't buy from here. you have been warned. read more

Great Experience buying from Gerry! Really feel Gerry was upfront and honest about the car. Took the time to explain everything and best of all he follows up with you to see how you are liking the car and if any issues have come up that need addressing so he can help. Alot of dealers here San Diego just do the minimum on their cars and you are just a dollar sign to them but dont feel that way with Gerry, good guy and good cars, great combo to find a reliable used car. thx Gerry read more

Bought a Mini Cooper from Gerry at Car Kings on 1/14. He got back to my initial inquiry immediately. Does maintenance on vehicles prior to listing. Showed up quickly when we texted we were at meeting place. Some running around to get payment and paperwork together. Gerry is pleasant to work with; fixed a window chip while we were in the bank. We are grateful he found a second key when he went to print paperwork. The car is as advertised, good value for money. Thank you, Gerry. read more

I was looking for a good used car for my daughter under $10,000 and saw a Honda Civic on this website. This car was in great condition and at a great price compared to others I'd seen advertised. Gerry made sure that we were happy with the car and even followed up the next day too. It's very hard to trust car sales people but Gerry is honest and only sells cars that are reliable. I would recommend him to anyone that is looking for a quality used car at a great price. read more

Definitely 5 stars for Sherif and his team. I was looking for a car for my mom and she wasn't quiet decisive on what she wanted, but with Sherif's help, we were able to define exactly what my mom needed!!! Him and his team were patient and helpful in the process. Thank to Car King my mom is driving exactly what she wanted and needed. We highly recommend CAR KING to everyone in the process of buying a car who doesn't want to be tied down for 5+ years of payments. read more
