Amazing work , I would buy a car with me again if I can find , I definitely recommend coming here

DO NOT COME HERE TO LOOK FOR A CAR. I came looking for a truck and the guy helping me talked about how he used to sell weed which is a huge red flag to begin with. Secondly, none of the people working there seemed to know anything at all about the truck. They then proceeded to ask me completely inappropriate questions such as how much my house was worth. Who asks something like that to a complete stranger? To wrap things up, they made me wait over an hour to appraise my car and proceeded to offer me $2000 for a car well worth over 15k. Do not waste your time with these weirdos. read more

Such an amazing company. Sam was wonderful and helped us so much. we were not very prepared and this was our first time buying a car, he had so much patience and helped us through every step. 100% recommend this place, they have a lot of nice cars for such a good price. read more

after purchasing my car ( bmw) within less than 250 miles the entire emission system flagged codes (4) requiring replacement and will not pass smog. $700-$1000 job to fix and they offer 3rd party warranty only, not valid for 90 days. my car has issues at less than 14 days. they refuse to pay for the repairs after i paid for car in full and have 100,000 mile warranty, but havw to wair 3 months to be effective. i dont feel luke a rockstar. i feel taken disadvantaged of by the crook salesman.I WOULDNT RECOMMEND THEM TO ANYBODY UNLESS YOURE READY FOR EXPENSIVE REPAIRS. read more

"Call/text for details" they say... came across a car I was interested in but was listed with no price. A handful of unanswered calls over a couple days, an unanswered text, an email that was kicked back with an invalid address still no response. The posting for the car has been updated and even "promoted" on OfferUp since I began trying to contact them.... Either a scam or just a scummy dealer dodging calls from unhappy customers read more

Good service, would recommend people these cars! Came looking for a Brz and they had it.

Welcome to rockstar rides, we want to help anybody out with a new car (as long as your military) and give you an excellent price (far above blue book) for a car that is in great condition (high mileage included for free) and the best customer service in the industry (we won't ignore you when your check engine light comes on tomorrow). The most honest employee in the entire business falsely claims to be prior military, which he clearly isn't. Enter at your own risk with these conmen. read more

CUSTOMER BEWARE.Just another basic stereotypical rip off used car dealership that sugar coats high mileage overpriced vehicles. Unfortunately the customers best interest is not a primary goal. In reality dealerships in general that don't post online prices lure customers and send you to finance elsewhere to collect their ends and leave you with a high mileage un-inspected vehicle. Besides the fact that they have a lousy unprofessional and very vulgar sales team that know nothing about the used cars they sell, profit and getting the customer out quick on over priced high mileage cars is what drives this dealership. Do not recommend better options elsewhere. Especially this Dimitri seller, with a horrid attitude and gets quite rude when talking about walking on a deal. Had an argument on a "fully loaded" car when it was missing features like adaptive cruise, driving amenities, etc. Mentioning to my face "some customers just don't know" while obviously referring to me. So when I proved him wrong he got offended changing the story on me. In conclusion he is ready to lie to you, attempt to belittle you and sugar coat high mileage over priced cars read more

Buyer beware: this company uses "offer-up" and Craigslist to sell their vehicles which is never a good sign. They will not answer questions or be cooperative if you are inquiring about a vehicle. Stay away. read more

Walked in yesterday and met with Demetri about a 2013 Evo and walked out with the keys. He's a REAL person and won't bull shit you or sugar coat anything. Amazing service for me because I'm 5 months pregnant so I was LOADED with snacks and tons of water. Car payments are low and he made everything simple and even called the bank for us to set up our account for the loan. Over all great experience and my husband is very happy with his dream car read more

Called to inquire on a truck that I had seen on their lot. They would not give me a sale price over the phone, nor were they interested in showing me the truck after being informed that I am not military. Military stay away ! read more

I brought a 2013 Mercedes Benz cls550 and I am have numerous amounts of problems with the car, it is not safe to drive on California roads I am in the military and I got brought over here by someone by coincidence, I haven't driven my car 1,000 miles when I am now faced with 22 problems on this vehicle, it is currently at his mechanic shop which I brought the vehicle to and I have not received 1 update on the vehicle in over a month and my bill is due, from oil leaks to suspension leak to bad tensioner belt you name it and it has the problem read more

Horrible service , I call no one ever answered, I send messages no reply's. I decided to drive. I get there and no one is there to help. The car I wanted wasn't there as well, Looks like there cars have issues. Another customer also brought there car for a check up. Short staff is there excuse. Waste of time, waste of gas. Never again. read more

The experience was upfront, honest and personable. The best place to go buy a vehicle, good selections, great pricing and deals and the employees are all very helpful. Dmitry was an awesome sales associate and great help! read more

Nah don't bother, just go to a real dealership. Bought a 2014 Benz with "minor" issues that turned into really big issues a month later and they told me not to worry about it......so I traded it in for something better at a different dealership that actually took much better care of us. Unfortunately it was a huge mistake buying from here. They're also super pushy I almost felt like I HAD to buy from them. read more

I completely got ripped off! This has been the worst purchase of my life ! after a few months of purchasing the car, it completely stopped working . read more

TERRIBLE service. Theyre all liars and the cars are all scratched and smell horrible. I bought a car as a gift for my wife and 2 days later it breaks down. They rush through paper signing and do not fully explain whats wrong with the car, they gave me an innacurate car fax and lied about the car being in perfect condition. To respond to what the gentlemen below said, yes they attempted to fix the car through a mechanic that has nothing but "rockstar rides" in his shop, the manager personally deleted the check engine light off of my car before any work was done to it. Saying it was a "piston misfire" the problem didn't go away until I had to take it to BMW myself come to find out the entire gas tank was messed up. A $3,000 fix. When I asked one of your employees why the car only would fill to a quarter of a tank y'all simply stated "oh, that's just how it is". Not to mention the car still has problems to this date. I've wasted over $5,000 repairing your "quality used car" that you sold. read more

When I got my first car here there was a check engine light on I asked about it they told me it has been serviced their mechanic just didn't know how to clear it. Keep in mind I was a boot at the time and thought hell yeah 18k for a bmw that's gold! Nope car broke down 6 months later front struts are blown out completely severe oil leak etc. since I didn't learn the first time I went back to look at a cheap Subaru, I picked it up since I need a ride to work and home 4 months later as I'm driving doing 35 at 2k rpms the engine just blows up. Now when I got the car It had a check engine light they cleared it said it was good that they took it to Subaru and had the whole thing inspected for me. I trusted them and now I completely regret it as I have a 20k loan for a blown up vehicle that I can't drive I can only sit in it and resent rockstar rides. I asked the dealership several times what they can do about the check engine light before it blew up they said sorry you drove it off the lot it's your problem now. Y'all stay away from this dealership and make sure your boots come no where near here. Update: I never raced the Subaru I never red lined it as the second day I had it Off the lot I got a check engine light and I brought it back immediately that night. Yes I had plans for the car to build a different engine for it but as it was I wanted to have a get to work and home car. Bottom line is rockstar rides is a scam dealership that'll sell you cheap cars that barely run they do a quick fix and get it off the lot before a check engine light came on Another update, just went under the car to finally get her fixed a year later, and this is the kinda weld job they'll do to your car if you buy it from them catless! It's a terrible weld job. No wonder I thought I heard an exhaust leak. They even put the wrong bolts on it! Strait up terrible dealership these guys are absolutely trash. read more

Demitry was amazing! He gave me an incredible discount! I'm so so happy I came here to buy my new car! The trade in process was so easy! 1000000% recommend! Ask for him you won't be disappointed best decision ever. Completely professional and they make you feel like family. IF YOURE A MILITARY FAMILY THEY HAVE YOUR BACK WITH NAVY FED!! read more

Just listen to the reviews and don't come here. I came here with my husband who is former military and Dimitry claimed to be prior military (other reviews also state this) but all the info he gave about his service was wrong (he never served) not a big deal though - whatever. We asked to test drive two vehicles and he said not unless we got approved, why would we apply for a car we can't even drive? For one car he stated it's because it's luxury (it was 10 years old) but the kia we also wanted to test drive isn't luxury .... Extremely unprofessional, pushy, and terrible sales pitch. We repeatedly told him we do have a trade in but don't want it looked at unless we can drive a car. There is no point to appraise my vehicle if I can't test drive a potential buy. The key fob didn't unlock the back doors to the vehicle we wanted to test drive, he didn't know mileage or prices of any cars anytime we'd ask he'd say (I don't know I would have to look). Said the cars had warranty when the signs on the car said "As is no warranty". Told my husband the Kia Optima he wanted to test drive for himself was (girly). This was our second attempt at this lot, the first time we showed up and waited on Dimitry for 20 minutes no show and no answer.Nice cars for good prices but very shady place. Just stay away. read more

DONT BUY A CAR FROM HERE. They sold me a car with a bad transmission that blew on me a year after having it. Now I'm in debt paying off a loan on a car that doesn't run. I had to have the car towed to a transmission shop and the mechanic told me its going to cost $9k to get a new transmission put in because they can't rebuild the one in it. Wish I can give this place 0 stars. Buy your car anywhere else but here. I bet their lot is full of unreliable cars. read more

I have purchased many cars in my life but none of my experiences were handled so quickly, so professionally, and by such a good-looking staff as when I went to Rockstar Rides. These guys knew there stuff. Not only were the cars on the lot sparkling, the office was spotless and smelled so good, and the salesmen cared enough to dress for us, the customer, with ties (for goodness sakes!). Yes, I was there to purchase a car, and I got a beauty. But I could have bought a car anywhere. Their presence, clear dedication and good looks only sweetened the pot for me. So lady's (and gay guys), go to check out one of the like-new cars on the lot. It was actually hard to make a choice because they looked and sounded like new, but make that purchase to keep the eye-candy there. All of you RUN to Rockstar Rides. read more

Don't come here bad service, they only want sales after sale are done they won't answer your call if you questions, had terrible situations where they won't release the car to me if no insurance and the insurance need to take pictures, I order to add insurance, dealer wont help by bringing the car to get insurance..... bad service won't recommend at all. Yea read more

The people here are very pushy. I went here when I was barely 18 told them no but somehow got talked into buying a 2014 challenger from them. I was excited and loved the car for the first few months. After less than a year the abs light came on from problems with that I needed new tires in that same time frame the stereo stoped worked the brake pads and rotors both needed to be replaced after being as assured everything was recently replaced. I would never come here or refer anyone here. If I could I would return my car and get a refund ASAP. They are great at covering up all the problems but after having this car for still less than 2 years and having so many problems they are all showing now. read more

Dmitry is what I call a magician not only did he sell my truck for exactly what I owe in one week. I mean come on. He had me picked up and brought to the dealership I'm 45 mins away what company does that. These guys are awesome hands down. They made me feel like family. read more

I had a great first time car buying experience. I was really nervous but a close navy friend recommended me here. He purchased a Ford fusion here from Sgt Perez. I have a deep admiration for our service men and was thrilled too see his commitment not only to his country but to his community. He got me an amazing deal and worked with me to get my monthly payments to only 200 a month. Adrain the manager personally assisted me in getting a great insurance rate. Ask for Sgt Perez he is truly an absolute gentleman and honest salesman. Thanks again. 5 stars all the way. read more

They have cars listed both on their website and on Craigslist that they "just sold" and then try to sell you a different car. Many cars listed with "call for pricing" and person answering phone doesn't have a handle on inventory or pricing. read more

Don't even waste your time here. Went with my husband to look at a WRX Impreza and right off the bat the guy starts talking about getting approved for a loan, financing after we had stated we just wanted to look... anyway my husband is an avid car person and looked at the vehicle wanted to make sure everything was fine, looked under the car and something was leaking, husband told the guy and he barley even looked and immediately said "no that's not from this car it's from another". The lost has absolutely no room to move any of the cars they would have to move the cars hours before and the wet spot would have dried. And after kind of getting pushed to see if we got approved for a loan, which by the way we had to open a whole other account through navy federal. After an hour of doing all this stuff these guys (Dimitri and Daniel) start to hardball us and throw all this stuff like "if you get approved we can pick up a check today and you can take the car not a problem. We get denied that's fine, it was for a $25,000 loan, my husband is a LCpl in the Marine Corps, not gonna happen. They say after we get denied to try for a smaller loan of $1500. At this point we are like "no it's coooool" especially cause the car was way over priced and had a ton of scratches. Then as we are tying to get out of this really awkward stressful situation, Dimitri starts to talk to us about our credit situation (we have no credit and knew we wouldn't get approved but tried anyway cause ya know pushy people) he starts to tell us quite aggressively that we need to build our credit and that no one will ever give us loans and that we won't be able to get a home when my husband is out of the military. All this stuff that you don't say to prospective customers. As we are like "no it's fine" and get up to leave one of them says "it's okay we don't need you guys to buy from us" and with that we left. Point being horrible place. Don't go there they are pushy and can be quite rude. read more

Dmitry and Ceaser hooked me up with a badass blacked out 2013 convertible mustang. Very polite and respectable men who did nothing but help me out in so many different ways today. If I could give them 10 stars I would. I will be in touch, soon! read more

Military guys new to California, don't go it. The whole getting picked up and taken back was nice. Even though I had a ride there with a friend of mine that is an experienced mechanic. They said I'm not allowed to be there with anyone else besides myself. Extremely pressuring. Didn't like any of the cars and was kept until past midnight. I blame myself for actually buying a car that was pre-owned certified but the car came with a lot of issues that was covered up pretty well. Had to replace the control arms, water pump, EVAC system, rotors, some interior components, and papers never told me car was re-ended before until I went to the actual model's dealership. Highly don't recommend for anyone who doesn't know much about cars and is turned away for wanting to bring an experienced mechanic. read more

Best dealership to go for for sports bike and amazing cars love the service, especially from intelligent marines. I'm sold . Ask for Dimitry, he's the main man. read more

Everyone was very helpful no questions went unanswered I was highly recommend purchasing a car here

Major scammers here. They showed me a car overpriced by 50%. It's value is 10,600 mint condition and they have it tagged at 16k. And the car was damaged inside and outside. When I asked about it the guy said that they overprice cars so that they can get them financed. And try to explain to me that the bank will only loan more money than the car is worth. After reading other reviews I can say yes this place is a con shop and should be avoided at all cost read more

Great customer service, Demitry was helpful and kind. Awesome selection of cars and great prices. Definitely recommend them.

Worst place to get a car do not recommend for military personal to come here, complete rip off I got sold a salvaged car and got lucky to have hoen cars helped me get out of that car that didn't run good and into another car that didn't break down. AGAIN WOULD NOT RECOMMEND TO ANYONE read more

Ask for Dmitry!!! He's very good with customer service and will put you in the ride you need.

Alright so I message these guys like 6 months ago about a car and no respond I'm like hello spamming them and everything nothing so I gave up but I bought a item from them cause they sell other stuff and when I tried to use it it didn't fit or work it was a fake nock off DONT BUY CARS OR STUFF FROM Rockstar Rides just a bunch of fakes!!!!!! Go somewhere else read more

See all

A scam! Please do not go with these guys for anything and don't let them sell you on helping you with a better deal if you are military. Like most of these reviews they say they have the vehicle you acquired about and then happens to sell a few days prior to wanting to set up and appointment to view it. Then they want you to look at their other inventory which all high mileage junk... I'd give no stars of course but whatever JUST DONT GO HERE !!! read more
