    Lexus RZ 350e Premium

    Working with Yohan at SMG was a super smooth experience. He's locked in when it comes to the car market in LA. Knowledgeable about availability and what's a good or a bad deal, with very solid ties to dealerships and their managers. He helped me decide on my new Lexus model (I wanted a change, switching from a Mercedes), then tracked upcoming inventory with my desired color and options. Handled all the communication and negotiations with the dealerships. Once the deal was done, I signed contracts at home on my phone. This beauty was delivered to my door without my ever stepping foot in the showroom it came from. Thanks again, Yohan! 10/10 experience.

    This is the 2026 Kia Carnival that SMG helped secure for me, all via text, phone, and email.

    Good service. I didn't lift a finger until I was signing for the car delivered to my door.

    My wife loves her new car. Thanks SMG!

    Second time I have used SMG and once again they delivered. Yohan made everything go smooth and found a great deal!

    If you're in the market for a new car, SMG Auto Brokers has to be your one stop shop. After having a particular car in mind, I contacted SMG Auto Brokers to help me find the best deals so I could avoid the hassle of dealing with multiple dealerships. Yohan was super helpful and went above and beyond to negotiate a deal that saved me so much more than I'd seen at any dealership! Once the deal was in place, the car was delivered to my place within a few days. The entire process from communication to final delivery couldn't have been any smoother thanks to these guys

    Yohan was great. This turned out to be a protracted process and there were many texts and voice calls. Yohan was always friendly and helpful throughout the process and in the end I'm driving an exciting new car. Thank you!

    Update: Clyde @ SMG is the real deal. This guy has the resources and live data that most brokers don't even have. That alone should convince you... and no I'm not getting paid to write this review. I feel that business owners like Clyde who go the extra mile deserve public recognition because he's one of the good ones in this extremely frustrating industry. But why stop there? Let's talk about his pricing. He doesn't pad his numbers and screw you over on the back end with the dealership. His flat fee pricing is transparent and he truly cares about the overall client experience. Clyde went above and beyond to provide white glove service to me and adapted to my difficult situation. Admittedly I can be a difficult client and I have VERY high expectations. Yet, he still performed and got me what I wanted in the limited timeframe I presented him with. He got me a better deal I could have ever secured on my own. I'll leave you with this final thought: We all have our go-to Hair Stylists or Barbers, CPA's, Financial Advisors, etc. When you come across a really good one, it's rare. But you can rest assured that they'll take care of you and you can take comfort in knowing this. That's how I feel about Clyde. That's why Clyde is my guy now. I don't hesitate to recommend him to family, friends and anyone reading this because you don't need to put up with dealerships anymore. Clyde can be your guy too.

    My new car :)

    Recently my existing car was deemed a "lemon" by the manufacturer so they purchased the car back. I was not looking forward to having to go thru the car buying process again, going to the showroom and playing the car buying game.....I decided to try and go thru a car broker this time, I did not have high expectations. I spoke with Yohan Marshall on the phone and explained my situation. He was great to work with, no high pressure, just listened to what I was looking for. It took about 3 weeks to find the right car and then to go thru the process of getting it to their preferred dealer. Once there, we agreed on the price and the car was delivered to my house. Wow! I have never had an easier car buying experience. I highly recommend SMG and Yohan.

    I live in the bay but would like to use SMG when I look for a new lease in 2 weeks or so. Would I have to travel down to LA to pickup the car?

    I was in the same boat as you. I'm from the bay area as well. I was planning on having the car shipped up from SoCal for a fee, but I ended up being down in the area when everything just ended up working out. Hope that helps.

    Is there a fee associated with the Car being delivered to your Residence or Work?

    Hi Rene, I've gotten at least 4 cars through SMG and I have not had to pay a delivery fee. There… 

    Do you deal with used cars well?

    I want to know this too.

    If you get the car for me, does that mean ill pay you the monthly for the car now until it ends?

    No not at all. We link the client with the car and make the deal happen. The money transferred monthly is between the client and whichever financial institution they financed or leased with!!

    Do you pay a fee if they can't get the deal you are looking for?

    Nope! We only charge a fee when you get the car through us, at the very end of the deal!

    How much does it cost to use a broker? Will I need to pay anything out of pocket for this service? Is this only for luxury cars or will you find any make and model?

    They charged me a $299 flat fee for any car.

    What if I want to sell my current car and use that money for lease/purchase? Would a broker be a better route than visiting a dealership and vice-versa? Thanks.

    Hi Howard! Using a broker is always the better route! The dealership employs salespeople and those… 

    Hi, do they do short term leases, too? 12-18 months?

    Hi Tabea, Some manufacturers do offer 12-18 month leases, but they often residualize different and the payments can range wildly. Give one of our brokers a call and any one…

He was patient, respected my budget, listened to exactly what I was looking for, and never pressured or gave me the runaround. He even got the car delivered to San Diego on a Friday night (!!) so I didn't have to make the drive. An absolute angel. I recommend EZ Auto to my friends & family. They're honest, easy to work with, and make leasing stress-free. Thanks again, Sam!

Just license, fees, and first month's payment DAS (due at signing). I started the process on Sunday afternoon when they were closed and went to the dealership on the following Saturday to pick up the car. This was the most stress free car buying experience of all time for me. Once I told Sam about the make, model, and trim I wanted with no add-ons, he went to work getting me the best quote. There was a dealer that quoted $13 more than the first dealer and Sam tried to get the dealer to come down in price to match the first offer. He didn't so we went with the first dealer to lock in a low monthly payment plus tax. None of that "cap cost reduction" nonsense you see in the car dealer ads that fool you into thinking you got a deal. You are just prepaying the lease and lowering your monthly payments. The deal that Sam got me was low selling price for the car, standard residual (set by the bank), lease rebate, zero upsell. In fact, I just dealt with Sam 100% of the time. I got the contract emailed to me to sign. Sam met me at the dealership to sign a couple of DMV forms. I wrote the check to the dealership, then Sam drove the car out to the pick up area. ZERO CONTACT WITH ANYONE AT THE VW DEALERSHIP! No games at the finance desk, no wasted time going back and forth, honest selling price of car, and standard money rate with the lease. Sam basically shielded me from all the high pressure sales tactic and made sure I got the best deal. Do yourself a favor and hire a professional like Sam to battle the dealership. This was truly and EZ experience and there was no fee or bill from Sam.
