I needed a new clutch (and I thought possibly a new transmission) and they were upfront and honest about the parts and work needed for my RSX Type S. Turns out a new clutch and resurfaced flywheel did the trick. They were also the only guys that were able to give me proper, knowledgeable feedback on my aftermarket supercharger that was making noise. If you have a modified car, this is the place to take it, period.

I had a HONEST, professional, and straightforward no pressure sales experience. Pat handles everything on the backend and makes sure that you are satisfied with your final purchase. Unlike other dealers I'd been to, Pat was very transparent and upfront about numbers, and the car itself - WITHOUT tacking on any BS fees to the total cost of the vehicle including APR (cough cough* Audi/Range Rover SF). They are also quite popular, as there were many inquiries about vehicles from potential customers both by phone and in-person while I was browsing. Overall, the prices are fair, financing rates are solid and hard to beat, and you can trust that you are getting a quality vehicle. Highly recommended! Thanks Pat and Molly

I purchased several very inexpensive used cars from small dealers over the years as there are great…read moredeals to be had. I was interested in a car on this lot that dropped to half the original price in 3 months and couldn't get a response from two websites (Carfax, their own), phone or text, so my gf and I showed up on a Saturday morning. I was informed by the attendant that the car was stored off-site and he could not drive it as it had a manual transmission. The manager would bring the car from storage in a couple of hours. My gf and I drove almost an hour to get there, so we found ways to kill time (Oakland flea market, Crown Beach and a coffee shop across the street). Four hours later, the car finally arrived. I knew the vehicle was crashed from the photos posted, but the attendant did not share that it had been broken into. It not only had the absolute dirtiest interior I have ever seen in a car at a lot, there was broken glass everywhere, the stereo was gone, wires were hanging out of the dash and most of the HVAC controls were missing. I was surprised they would even show it in this sad state. Despite all that, I test drove it, without my gf who couldn't get in because of the glass all over the passenger seat. It drove well and I was assured they would fix the window and clean up the glass. When I followed up with the attendant a few days later via text, he shared photos of the repaired window and gave me an out-the-door price that was significantly more than expected. Remember, I have experience with these transactions, so I asked for an itemized list of the fees. That's when I balked. The last three cars I purchased, all from similar small dealers, were in the same price range and included the typical additional fees (document processing, smog, smog certificate, etc.). The total percentage of the tax, title and license, plus fees relative to the purchase price for those cars was 23%, 24% and 25%. Reasonable. When I calculated the total percentage Axum was charging over and above the purchase price, it was 39%. I shared a screenshot from the DMV website with the attendant that illustrated the estimated sales tax and registration fees at less than $400, yet he was quoting me $450 before their additional charges (for a total of nearly $600 on a car that wasn't even $1500). At this point, the attendant stopped being polite and curtly informed me that was the price and if I could not pay it, they could not sell the car. It was easy for me to walk away because I don't need a vehicle. Had I been in a different situation, I might have paid the inflated price. I checked the out-the-door cost for a different car on another lot yesterday. The percentage of the purchase price for TT&L, even with higher doc fees: 18%. I received a sincere apology from the owner for my less-than-ideal experience. Added a star for the follow-up/accountability and improved customer service.
