    All I can say is I have bought many pre-owned cars in the past and my experience with OC Auto Wholesale was beyond stellar. Tim (The Owner) was absolutely amazing to work with. He is a genuine mid-westerner with those sensibilities. Honest, fair and a gem of a human. I was looking for a very long time to get a low mile Range Rover for my son and found one and jumped on it. One of the cleanest I came across and my son was so stoked when we surprised him. The whole process of purchasing my vehicle was seamless and easy. Tim has a large swatch of amazing, low mileage automobiles that are in pristine condition so we will be back for sure. I highly recommend Tim and his business. It's rare to come across a used car dealership where salespeople aren't wearing leisure suits and trying to pull the wool over your eyes. Tim is a great owner, a kind human and has great business acumen. Please give him a visit you wont be disappointed!

    As someone that has owned 46 different vehicles in my lifetime, I am what most people call "a car guy". I know a lot about cars and their offerings. After losing my MBZ CLK 55 AMG convertible to an accident (not my fault) I was looking to replace it with something comparable. I saw an ad on line for Orange County Auto Wholesale and found something I really liked. The pictures and description was remarkable and I was able to get a copy of the CarFax report. I called Tim and asked about it. He gave me detailed information and answered all my questions with perfect knowledge and understanding of my wants/needs. After about 45 minutes of conversation and some emails, I purchased the car, sight unseen (except for pics). I got a very fair price compared to many others I had looked at for a very long time. Everything was done on line and, Tim even had a connection to have the car delivered to my home (about 1.5 hours away). The vehicle arrived and I was even more impressed with it in person. It was a previous lease that was taken care of by the owners and only MBZ dealers. Very low miles and not even a scratch on it. I also noticed that the car was detailed inside and out, including a ceramic coating. This was one of the best experiences I've had with a vehicle purchase, even better than most of the brand new vehicles I've purchased over the years. Tim knows his stuff and does not sell crap cars. He stands behind his word and was an absolute pleasure to work with. A big thank you again to Tim for the great experience.

    I love the 2009 Cadillac Escalade EXT pickup & bought it! I picked it up on a Wednesday, picked up my Son & drove to San Diego to go fishing! It was very smooth, powerful, & got 19 MPG. The brakes squealed all the way down & back & Tim, the owner, sent me to his mechanic who changed the rear brakes. I've also had to service it because I did not receive any service records & had to repair the mirror motors & the door latches. But, over all it the best truck I've ever owned.

    Don't think I'll be coming here for maintenance anymore. I came in today for a simple oil change…read moreand was quoted nearly $1,000 for a 30K maintenance service. Reza T didn't initially show me a breakdown of the pricing and pressured me to sign while saying the wait would only be 3-4 hours. I mentioned there was a 20% off coupon, and he said he would apply it, so I agreed. Later, while I was already waiting, he had me sign another document that finally included the itemized breakdown. I also reminded him that I had a buy one get one free oil change, and he said he would check on it. In the end, I waited nearly 5 hours and still had to message them myself just to get an update. My car only has around 33K miles, and I've stayed consistent with maintenance every six months, so I'm not sure what justified a service quote close to $1,000. When I finally reviewed the breakdown, a large part of it was for things like a throttle service and cabin filter replacement, which actually had coupons available that I wasn't allowed to apply. On top of that, they now charge a 2% fee for credit card payments and no longer include a car wash. Overall, the experience felt disappointing and not very transparent. Unfortunately, the long wait times and pushy upselling tactics made this a disappointing experience, and I won't be returning.

    I had already done my research, test-driven & decided to lease a Kia Sorento Hybrid, and started…read moresearching for my deal. I have no patience for games or sitting in dealerships, so I contacted several different dealerships through the greater LA area to get the rather aggressive deal I was asking for (including no dealer add-ons, etc). I had contact with 10 different dealerships & multiple auto brokers. I went back & forth with quite a few, and only Ricky in Internet Sales @ Kia of Irvine came even close to the numbers I was working for. He fairly pushed back on my numbers, but made a very competitive offer, and we compromised & met very close to what I was looking for. Even though I was pretty on-guard, there really were no games. Very little of the traditional "when can you come in [so we can pressure you]" or "let's get on the phone." He accepted my boundaries & worked with him It was clear that it was simply about selling the car, and working towards the deal. Day of, I drove pretty far (past several other Kia Dealerships) to sign & drive off. Ricky was tied up, but had Arthur give me another tour of the car, and he taught me more about the car in 10 minutes than I learned in an hour & a half of driving, sitting with other salesmen, and researching online. Kudos to Arthur for making the process simple. They presented me the numbers, and after the correction of a small oversight (honest mistake from having dealt with Ricky originally), I signed a lease exactly as agreed to. Signing paperwork with Aydin in Finance was as smooth as could be. He showed me what was available as add-on charges, but was already aware that I was not interested in anything, and just walked me through signing off the declines. I walked out with paperwork in hand (well, in my email inbox!), ready to go. Like I said, I drove pretty far for this deal. There were at least a half-dozen dealerships that were closer, but no one else seemed serious about sharpening their pencils & making a deal that worked for me as well as the dealer. Can't recommend Kia of Irvine enough, especially if you're like me & have no patience for doing the whole in-dealership, in-person "let's meet my sales manager" four-square shuffle.
