Mike was great. Sold my Tesla model3 and got a fair price. They found a few dings and lowered the estimate by a fair amount. Overall I'm please with the experience and will use them in the future. read more

I wasted my time driving all the way to El cajon to try and sell my car to them. They are very picky about the condition of the paint and turned me away. The car is 10 years old of course the paint is not going to be in perfect condition. I just wish they were more transparent with their offer, so I didn't waste my time taking time off of work to just be turned away. read more

Pretty positive experience. Very nice and quick response. I submitted info online and got information right away. No pressure, just very informative. read more

I waited 2 weeks to have someone come inspect my car, the inspector canceled on me a couple hours before he was supposed to arrive. Not only that, they didnt have anyone else available. I took a day off of work for this which is SUPER rare and difficult for me to do. And to top it off they wont try to beat or match any other offers until they inspect the vehicle. We all know how that goes. They will 100% low ball you when they get there and hope that you will just accept it since they are already there. Total waste of time, this is the absolute worst experience ive ever had trying to sell a car. Oh and they offered $950 extra if you "accept offer now" which was total BS. Not even in the price they sent me today. read more

Second time selling my car on this place and Mike always giving me the good deal way better than KBB and Carvana. Definitely recommend this place for my friends and family if they plan to sell their car instead of trading it to the dealership. read more

This place is great. Honest, quick, they'll cut you a check before you leave, AND get you a ride home. The whole process was easy and they'll pay more than anyone else for your car. I ended up getting really close to what I actually listed my truck for on marketplace. read more

Contacted Driveo and got a quote. It was much higher than Carnac or carvana. Set up appointment Greeted immediately by Mike. Did the inspection. Came back with a couple items revised the final quote which was very reasonable and 96% of original offer Did all the paperwork work for us and left with a check! They were fast, efficient and very professional If you selling a car in san Diego definitely Contact them. Very honest read more

Highly recommend selling your car to Driveo in El Cajon. Service was fast and efficient all thanks to Mike. Sold my 2025 Toyota Camry today and it was the easiest process! They beat Carvana and Carmax prices, so don't even bother looking elsewhere. read more

They give you a estimate for what they will give you for your car and they set a appointment to come look at car and call a hour before and say they can't give that and cancel. So we went to CarMax and got alot more money for our car! read more

They gave us the highest offer for our car and made the whole process fast and hassle-free. The customer service was excellent. Friendly, easy to talk to, and made us feel comfortable the entire time. read more

They were Easy, fast and overall higher amount offered for my vehicle than other companies. I was in n out and they offered Uber to take me home. read more

Amazing experience using Driveo! Was an extremely quick and painless process selling our car to them. The amount paid for our vehicle was very fair and the staff was courteous and efficient. The Lyft home after the sale was an unexpected bonus. Will definitely use again in the future. read more

Quick (less than 1 hour), easy, painless. I requested 3 quote from Driveo, Carmax, and Carvana. Driveo was the best offer and above KBB range. Mike helped me and he was super quick with the process, I was in and out within an hour and he ordered a Lyft for me as well to get home. read more

Driveo - farewell to my first adult car. - Car Buyers Near Me - El Cajon, California

Sold a 2023 VW to Driveo and everything was simple and perfect. Mike and Fareez were extremely helpful, pleasant to deal with, and very laid back. It was honestly refreshing to have this experience at a car dealership. I was not expecting this, but they are truly the gold standard. And best part.... Not only did they offer a great buy out price, but at the very end they offered and paid for my Uber home! Thanks again Mike! read more

We went to the Spring location. I was unsure at first. It was amazing. My price was lower than expected due to a few flaws. Adrian was amazing. I was in and out with a check in 1 hour. Loved this service!!!! read more

Sold my car to Driveo, after receiving a quote online. They offered the most money compared to dealer, Carvana and CarMax. They honored the full quote value and process was quick and easy. Mike was very friendly. I would sell a car to Driveo again. read more

Quick, easy and honest. No bait and switch. Mike was excellent, very professional. Highly recommend for a car sale. Higher than Carmax!

This was our fourth time working with Driveo. They make selling your used vehicle simple. The quote is simple. The evaluation is simple. The process is simple. If everything checks out as stated in your quote the payment process is even simple. Albeit, your vehicle has to be in the condition as stated. However, that being understood this is the way to sell a vehicle. You might make slightly more selling it yourself, however, time is money. IMO showing your car to strangers is not the best way to spend your time selling. We'll be back. Thanks again!! read more

Very convenient, efficient and Mike provided great service. Filled out the vehicle information online, took 3 minutes. Got an offer in less than 10 minutes, made the appt the next day and they handled all the paperwork quickly. Their offer was almost 10% higher than CarMax and Carvana. read more

I've been to several vendors to quote my car, and they all provided me a lower quote despite their positive feedback of my car. I've taken really good care of my car both interiorly and exteriorly. Then I came across Driveo online, and was initially skeptical, as it seemed too easy. But since their reviews were good, I decided to go forth. I answered some questions about my car and its history online. Then was provided a quote the following morning (super quick). The quoted estimate was about $2.5k more than the other places. If I decided to sell within the week, their offer was $550 more. I was contacted by them several times, but due to my work schedule, I couldn't schedule as soon as I would've liked. Then finally, I was able to schedule on a weekend. Scheduling an appointment was easy to do online. Mike called me the day before my appointment for confirmation. Asked me a few questions regarding any scratches on my car and the condition of my tires. He said he would have the paperwork ready in case I decided to proceed with the sale. I received a text stating to click the link provided to let them know I have arrived in their lot. I got to the Driveo/Auto City (Driveo is a sister company to Auto City) lot a bit early (sales lot, not services lot- there are 2 entrances) and clicked the link to let them know I've arrived. I was then greeted by one of the salesman later, and they asked for my key to take my car for inspection. I was able to wait inside their office (spacious). They had coffee there too for their customers to drink. The inspection didn't take long, as I was out of there in about 45min or so. I was given what I was quoted online, which was great! I felt that they respected my efforts of taking good care of my car, and gave me a fair quote. I signed all the paperwork there, including the liability release to them (DMV paperwork). They were very efficient throughout the whole process. I also would recommend removing all personal items from your car and bringing along all car keys, vehicle registration, and your title (if you've paid off your car) to your apointment just in case you do decide to sell your car. It makes the process so much more efficient! They don't pressure you to sell your car, which I also appreciated. They were professional and efficient, which I truly appreciated. I will definitely return to sell my car in the future or refer my friends to them, as they are great! If you are looking to purchase a used vehicle, they are also willing to assist. Great experience overall! Definitely worth the 1 hour drive! read more

Easy process! The quoted amount via online was the amount we received with a check handed to us immediately. They made selling our car stressfree. read more

Sold my 2021 Dodge Challenger and it was the easiest and smoothest transaction I have ever experienced at a dealership. Mike was great, straightforward, and made everything seamless! They honored the quote I was given online and cut me a check right after they evaluated and ran a diagnostic on the car. I will definitely be using them again in the future. Highly recommend! read more

Driveo - was able to give me fair price for my car. Staff was friendly and helpful. Everyone here seems willing to help any way they can and is patient with each persons financial situation. I felt they gave me the best price around town and made it easy. I would recommend this place and drive across town to get there. They even got me a Lyft for the ride home. Thank you Mike at Driveo for your hard work and fair deal. read more

Sooo 6 months ago asked for a quote, it was followed up with a text and new quote days ago. After some research and looking into this company we took the 45 minute drive with an appt From start to finish was about 45 minute! Very kind, greeted and very helpful. Even their inspection report was fair! They had 1 issue and to resolve was fair with labor (we thought they would jack up the cost or inflate) Offered an Uber to take us home at their cost! Wrote the check, paid off the balance to take bank and we were out the door. Thank you Mike Manastyrski wonderful job! Wish much success and a sweet raise' total professional without being the cheesy car salesman - thank you highly recommended read more

Sold my car with driveo and it was a very easy process. I was a bit hesitant as other reviews online were explaining their negative experiences but I'm glad we came regardless. Got a quote online, they checked my car, signed some documents and I was on my way. I recommend them to anyone who is wanting to sell their car. read more

Got quoted online higher than everywhere else. Was very skeptical at first but it was the easiest and fastest process ever! We made an appointment, they did the inspection which took about 25 minutes and honored the online quote! Fareez was AMAZING and so helpful. The entire process only took about 45 minutes. Would definitely recommend selling your car here! They are the best. read more

I came in after seeing a promising offer compared to CarMax. When I came in they said about half hour wait for an appraisal. I waited an hour. Assuming these people went on lunch while I'm waiting. Then I came back and they said they deducted $1150 because of my fender benders that had minor body work. I ran out quick and back to CarMax and sold it to them. Honestly driving to El cajon city is never an area I would ever drive too. But seeing where it was located and the size of the dealership. I should have realized it was a mid to low experience place to lure cars in at a high offer and then low ball at the appraisal. read more

These people are simply a joke and I don't recommend anyone to do business with them. I got offered 21000$ online for my Prius, and asked to make an appointment to sell them my car. When I got there, I got asked to wait for 30 minutes so they would do the Mechanic inspection on my car. After waiting and getting the results, Mike told me that he just got the CarFax results and since the damage on my car was between Moderate and Severe, they can't buy my car even though it was fixed. So I'm not sure why I got offered 21,000$ and why they made me drive to them and even wait for the Mechanic Inspection if they could have first asked for my VIN number and run the CarFax report or simply get it from my Plate number that I provided online for them. I should mention that Mike was professional and nice and tried giving me tips to sell my car somewhere else. read more

Driveo - The CarFax results - Car Buyers Near Me - El Cajon, California

awesome experience!! easy, polite and in and out. highly recommend. most hassle free experience selling my car

We sold our van to Driveo and the process couldn't have been easier. After getting a few estimates from other places including Carmax and a dealership (trade in value), we got an estimate for our car here, setup a time to come in and then sold it! They inspect the car once you come in to make sure it is what you say it is, then if there are some discrepancies they may need to adjust the price. But it was higher than other places even after a slight adjustment. The folks here are professional, they are fast and efficient and you walk out with your check. ________TL;DR________ PROS: fast, great price on my used car after doing some research and comparisons CONS: none, it was so easy BOTTOM LINE: when I have another used car to sell, I will definitely consider selling it here again. read more

I'm going to tell anyone selling their car to check out Driveo in El Cajon! I was selling my 2020 Honda CRV w/ 99k miles on it and got an online quote from Driveo that was $2,500 more than carmax, $3,500 more than Carvana, and $3,500 more than Norm Reeves Toyota! I was greeted by Mike and he immediately took my keys to have my car inspected which took about 45 minutes. He was no nonsense and very busy, so he didn't have time to chit chat. He was able to offer the same online quote they gave me originally. Though I ended up selling my car to the dealership I bought it from, I was grateful to have had the driveo quote as leverage. read more

Great Experience in selling my vehicle to Driveo. They were straight forward, honest very easy to business with. Relaxed approach, paid more than CarMax or Carvana. Whole process took less than 1 hour. Even gave me a ride home. Highly recommend! read more

Plan on selling your car? This is the best place to do so. I bought a new vehicle and thought about trading in my old one, problem is, I was being offered too little for it, not even KBB range. I went to Carmax, Carvana, and reached out to a few dealerships, but all lowball offers. I decided to sell private party since this was the way to get more money for it. One day I go online and come across Driveo. I enter all the vehicle's info/details. About 20min later I get an email with an offer, $6k more than Carmax/Carvana! I set an appointment to have the vehicle inspected a few days after. I show up to the inspection and I'm greeted by Mike. He is clearly expecting me and asks for the car keys. He tells me the inspection should last about 30min. I wait in the lobby and shortly after Mike walks in and escorts me to his desk. There he gives me the final offer, which is $400 less than the original offer due to minor cosmetic issues. I take the offer no questions asked. I have to say, the initial offer seemed too good to be true and thought it was perhaps a hook to get me in the building, and expected a much lower offer after the inspection, however that was not the case at all. They fully delivered and I walked out of there with a check in hand. Thank you Mike and everyone at Driveo, you guys were solid! Seriously, if you ever want to sell your vehicle, this is the place to do it! I cannot stress this enough! read more

Driveo - SOLD!!! - Car Buyers Near Me - El Cajon, California

Everything was as advertised. The bid was solid. There was some work the car needed when inspected and the price adjustments seemed reasonable. I was in and out in 45 minutes. Sooooo much better than the nightmare experience at Carmax. I tried to sell there and was tortured with wait times. read more

After wasting our time by going to CarMax first (they said due to the economy no one is buying cars, so their offer was so low I would say that either they were trying to steal the car, or testing us to see how stupid we are), we looked around and found Driveo. Worth the drive to El Cajon. But first, the online process was a breeze, and we felt good about making an appointment. The ratings on Yelp are great - can they be real? YES! Made our appointment through their site, they called that morning to verify (very professionally), and started the process right on time. We knew that our car wasn't perfect (it's 10 years old), so we were very surprised that their final offer was only a couple of hundred dollars less than the online number. It took a few more minutes to complete the process and get the check and we were on our way. We certainly recommend this business and urge you to contact them if you need to sell a car. They have a broad selection on site, so buying a car from them might suit you. read more

I highly recommend selling your car here. We sold my jeep here in September and then came back a couple months later to sell my husbands Chevy. The process was easy, straight forward and no stress. For both cars they offered us a better rate than Carmax. We were in and out both times in less than 2 hours. Ask for Mike, he helped us both times and was extremely personable and straight forward. read more

I decided to sell my Jeep Rubicon Recon, so I went to the normal places like KBB and others, but Driveo offered the best price. Not only that, but they took the time to not just auto-calculate a market price, but tool condition, extras, into consideration. Further, in order to give peace of mind, they provide pricing if you sold it on your own, if they bought it or if you traded it in.. John was my Driveo rep, and he did a great job throughout the process- fast and efficient! I went to their El Cajun office expecting some pricing negotiation, but instead, I was happy that their official offer matched their quote without any haggling. Of course, it helped that my Jeep was pristine. They do all the paperwork, and you walk out the door with whatever equity you have in the vehicle. This is FAR BETTER than others out there, who will payoff your car and then make you wait for the title before they cut you a check. I would highly recommend Driveo to anyone thinking of selling a vehicle. I got a great offer ($1.2k more than Vroom, $3k more than Carvana and $5.4k more than KBB)! Overall, very pleased :) read more

The online quote was easy to get and I never got annoying emails.or calls from them. When I was ready I made an appointment online, I had to reschedule a few times and there was no problem at all. When I came in, I checked in with a link they sent so they knew I was there right away. They quickly took my car in for inspection. After the promised 30 minutes they offered me the highest value for my car compared to other dealers and it matched what Driveo had quoted for me online. I was so happy with the offer. They did the paperwork in less than 10 min and I had my check. I loved the easy process. I will recommend this to family and friends. read more
