    Just leased a Range Rover velar! And had it delivered to my house! Want to thank Clyde and his team for the great service and easy process!

    One of my favorite things in life is getting a new car every three years. One of my least favorites, however, is going to the dealership. *Ugh* Well SMG and Clyde have put an end to that dreaded visit! Wow, what a relief -- just tell someone what you want, no B.S., no hidden costs, no shady business! The up-front fee is immediately offset by your savings on the back end, so no one should even think twice about it. THANK YOU CLYDE! I hope you're in this business forever because I still have a lot more cars on my list. #shelbycobra ;)

    I asked for a Porsche and got a Miata... and couldn't be happier. Ok, so the Miata is actually an Aston Martin. It was my first time working with a car broker as well as my first time in the exotic car market. I was certainly apprehensive about using a car broker, but read a lot of good reviews about SMG and Clyde. I was fortunate enough to work with Clyde and he is 100% as advertised. He's an authentic dude, who is into cars and even more into providing the most value/ service for his clients. He educated me quite a bit and happily answered all my questions, even the ignorant questions and didn't make me feel stupid for asking them. He was extremely responsive and was looking out for my best interest the entire time. I said I wanted a Porsche and after speaking with me, Clyde got a good feel for what I was looking for in a car, even if it meant going outside of a Porsche. We looked at several Porsches, but the numbers and value didn't make sense. I relied on his expertise and I'm sure glad I did. He found my car and in a timely manner. I think the whole process took less than 2 weeks. He worked within my budget and got me an insane deal. I can't thank him enough. Clyde and SMG are legit and I will most definitely be a repeat customer.

    I can't say enough good things about Clyde. From day 1, I knew he was a car guy and enjoyed his work. I love cars but don't like the time and effort needed to find the next deal. I had used a different broker in the past and they were good, but I still felt it was a bit like the old-school used car salesman. So I thought I'd use a different broker and that's where SMG and Clyde come in. Wow, talk about exceptional service. My ask during our initial conversation was very broad, but speaking with Clyde, I could tell, he knew his cars and wouldn't steer me wrong. I asked him to help me narrow down my next car based on what I had driven in the past. We discussed at least 5 different cars that I was interested in. Not many brokers(like the one I used before) would have taken the time to really listen and get to know my wants in a car. On top of that, he researched all the cars I had mentioned and given me a breakdown of numbers, value, and impression of each car. Right from the get go, he had a car in mind that would fit the bill, but didn't push it upon me at all. He was very open about the whole process and would tell me straight out, if it was a good deal or if I shouldn't even consider it. He updated me with pics of the the different cars. He also showed me a few that we hadn't discussed but knew I would be interested in. It made my decision a little harder, but nonetheless, Clyde was really looking for that car that I would be happy to drive and would fit within my budget. Boy oh boy, did he deliver. I was in town for the week and thought, maybe if we found a car that week, I could drive it back. Oh, did I forget to mention, I live in NorCal. As luck would have it, he found the car that fit the bill and everything just fell into place. After a few text exchanges, pics, and a phone call, we made the deal happen and I picked up the car. On top of the whole process, Clyde met me late in the evening to finalize and sign everything so that I could drive the car back up to NorCal. Man, what better way to enjoy a new car than to go on a road trip and 'break it in'. Thanks again to SMG and Clyde for being patient, honest and providing an exceptional buying experience. You know who I'll be contacting for my next ride....

    This was my first time trying an autobroker, and Clyde and Kaynan really did an amazing Job! When you first call them they explain what they do and are upfront about their retainer fee. After giving them the specs of which car I wanted, they canvassed different dealers and got me a good deal from one. After verbally agreeing to the terms, Kaynan finalized the deal with the dealership and personally delivered the car to my home in Simi Valley. All in all taking delivery of the car was a painless 15 minutes. So I can't recommend them enough for their great service!

    Only Custom green 2018 Range Rover Sport out there!! Thanks SMG!!!!!!!
    Emily O.

    I am so thankful for these guys!! First off I know I am picky and not that easy to work with! I wanted the impossible. I wanted a 2018 Range Rover Sport in British racing green. It seems they stopped making that color unless u special order it!! I was a bit thrown off and thought maybe they were lying to me, so I went to my local dealership in Encino (btw, they are so rude) but anyways, it was true. No more green on 2018 and up. LIKE WTF!!!! So Clyde, my broker was telling the truth. That was cool that he wasn't lying to me like the rest of the car people I had spoken to. Only thing that threw me off was the 500 dollar service fee. Of which he explained they take 250 upfront to get started. I thought this was a bit sketch then later realized why!!! Clyde is so awesome. He really truly cares and made sure I got exactly what I wanted. He worked it all out for me. He got me a black on black with the wheels I wanted, then had it wrapped for me in green vinyl. It's so PERFECT!!! I love my car and I can honestly say I'm the only one out there with a green 2018 Range Rover sport lol. Once the deal was done he asked me to go the there website and pay the final 250. I did gladly. Best 500 I spent and well worth it. I didn't have to do a thing. He brought the car straight to my house and I was just in awe and in shock. Love love love my new range. I've referred my mom to Clyde as well. She's gonna get a Range Rover also and Clyde said he can arrange shipping to Hawaii. What a great service and so happy I found this place!! Thanks again SMG and I'll be sending all my friends your way!!!!

    See all

He took the time to answer every question, never made me feel pressured, and worked with me throughout the entire process to make sure we found the right vehicle. I ended up purchasing a beautiful Range Rover, and Matt went above and beyond to make the experience smooth and enjoyable. It's hard to find dealerships that genuinely care about their customers, but that's exactly how I felt here. If you're looking for a dealership that treats you with respect and stands behind what they sell, look no further. Matt and the team at Authority Auto will get the job done. They've absolutely earned a customer for life, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to my friends and family.

Matt helped me navigate purchasing the car 90% virtually. He even did me the service of giving me a ride after I flew into LAX to check out the car. I can't say enough about how much easier and more enjoyable purchasing a car through Authority Auto was compared to dealerships or other private sellers. He gave me a great price that was too good to pass up. Great stories and a great company. Can't wait for my next car purchase. It will definitely be through Authority Auto.

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.

Initially I had planned to sell through Carmax, Carvana and Bidbus. All of those options fell very short of my expectations numbers wise, especially Bidbus! The dealership I got paired with tried to scam me with extremely shady practices so I left promptly. Which lead me back to Abe and his team, I made an appointment online and was seen a couple days after, Abe greeted me after the appraisal and gave me a very fair number. He was also very transparent on the value of the car and what their price would be when they decide to sell it. Very rarely are car dealers so accommodating and kind when it comes to this business so I am very weary. Thank you Abe! I'll be back again in no time.

She was warm, helpful, and never once tried to push me toward anything. I told her I wanted to come in Friday and asked if they could hold the car. She said yes, no deposit required. That alone told me a lot about how these people operate. When I got there, the boss was around too -- relaxed, straightforward, no pressure. The young guy who took me on the test drive was great -- you can tell he genuinely loves what he does. That kind of enthusiasm is rare, and it made the whole experience easy. And at the front desk, I was greeted by a young lady whose name -- I promise I am not making this up -- is Jennifer Lopez. Lol. I bought a 2021 Tesla Model Y. When I got home and ran the numbers myself, I was off from their figures by three dollars. Three. No hidden fees, no surprise add-ons -- just taxes and DMV, exactly as discussed. They also buy and sell used vehicles, electric cars especially, so whether you're buying or selling it's worth giving them a call. Couldn't be happier with the experience. Would absolutely go back and would recommend them to anyone tired of the usual dealership runaround. Thank you to Jess, to the boss, to the test drive guy, and to Jennifer Lopez -- you're all great.
