Used Cars Los Angeles

I don’t trust anyone to sell my used cars to but Chris from Used Cars Los Angeles. I would never buy a used car from anyone else either. He’s always up front and so honest with me, he never plays games. I’ve bought a couple of cars from him in the past and they are always in tip top shape. I always recommend him to my friends and family because I know they will be in good hands and will continue to go to him for years to come.
Chris has never been pushy or greedy like the typical car salesmen. I can trust him thoroughly and know that he is giving me the best deal. I highly recommend Used Cars Los Angeles, they have a great reputation!

Chris was amazing and helpful and did NOT take advantage of the fact that I was first time buyer and a girl on top of that lol. I love my 2001 Honda Accord! It’s been 6 months now and I love my car just as much as the day I got it! I never got that pushy car salesman vibe! Great service! I have called before with questions about my car and he was happy to help me over the phone! He even sent me a Starbucks card as a thank you for doing business! My fiancé had bought several cars throughout the years from this family business! If I ever get a car again I will absolutely come back here! So happy with my car!

If your looking to buy a good used car or sell your car this is a reputable business. Chris has a great reputation for being honest, friendly, and trustworthy.
Used Cars Los Angeles has a decent inventory of vehicles competitively priced. The inventory will have good cars priced to meet most anyone’s budget.
I wouldn’t hesitate to pay Chris a visit when the need to purchase a vehicle arises.

I wish you the best Chris. May your business flourish and may you continue to make your customers happy :)

My parents just bought me my first car (1993 JEEP WRANGLER) from Chris at Used Cars Los Angeles. We’ve never been more satisfied. Chris was awesome! He was 100% honest and gave us a great deal! I recommend Used Cars LA to anyone looking into buying their child’s first car! They have a wide variety of cars and great offers! He also followed up with us too see how things were going with the car. Chris runs a great business and it is definitely worth looking into!

I just sold my 99 Honda CRV to Chris!!! First off, this was the most relaxing sale I’ve ever done. He is genuinely a nice, honest person, ya’ll. Not once did I feel like I was being ripped off or being undermined. I mean, it’s kind of hard to rip me off because I do my research, and mainly because I’m Asian, we’re bred to find good deals. I’ve gone on KBB and looked on craigslist and other sites to see what my car would be worth. BUT I walked out today feeling great and that the price I was offered for it was fair.
I just got a brand new car and had a hell of a time haggling for it at another dealership, so I didn’t feel like having to deal with that again when selling the CRV. Plus, craigslist is a pain in the butt, especially when you’re trying to sell stuff as a woman… I also lost my pepper spray so… no CL.
Chris asked me what I was hoping for it and what he can offer. No arguing, nothing, just two people talking. He listened and we agreed on a price. You can just get a sense of people and he’s one of the good ones. Probably because it’s a smaller place so you get honest people instead of folks trying to hit quotas.
If I was looking for a used car, I’d definitely go here in a heartbeat.

Chris is really great. He runs a great business and will help you the best he can. very easy to buy a car from this guy. Will not hassle you like other places. This does come at a price as his cars tend to sell for more than other places. Negotiate and know what the car is worth.
In regard to the bad reviews here, understand it’s important to do your homework on any used car. Never buy a used car without having a trusted mechanic give it a thorough inspection. If you don’t get what you expected, it’s your own fault.

Was definitely the right choice walking onto the lot and asking Chris what kind of car would best suit me. I walked away happy with my new 4Runner!
This is the best used car lot I’ve seen out there, this guy is actually here to help us!

I really love my toyota highlander! !! We had a couple of fixer upers on it but that’s how it is with used cars. We had an issue with the mechanic but chris dealt with the issue professionally. He is after all very considerate and sincere. I had miss interpreted him at first due to miss communication. He took the initiative to get a hold of me and to hear my concerns. After that he solved our problem! 100% customer service!!! Thank you chris for hearing us out and taking care of business fairly.

Great service. Chris is a really nice guy & we’ll try his best to accommodate you & your needs.

I just had a great experience with Chris at Used Cars LA! He is a true professional and an honest, unpretentious, man. I found out that my 1998 Avalon needed some extensive work and decided that I would rather put that money into another car. I always buy used and I prefer older cars. Chris had a great selection and went out of his way to meet my expectations, questions, and concerns. In the end, though reasonably priced and mechanically sound, I decided that I don’t want to part with my car just yet. I have gotten quite use to no car payments, low insurance, and the great way it drives. When the day comes that I HAVE to make a change, I will certainly go see Chris and know, without a doubt, that I will be well taken care of. Thank you for taking so much time with me!

Chris has sold 2 of my cars for me. He was very professional, honest, and knowledgeable about how to get my car sold fast. He told me upfront how much his selling fee was, and got me my portion of the money as soon as my car sold. I would definitely recommend Used Cars LA if you are looking to sell or buy your pre-​owned car fast!

Very knowledgeable and friendly. Can help you find any vehicle you are looking for the price you won’t be able to match.

We Love Used Cars Los Angeles! Chris is the best. He really knows his stuff and he was so helpful. He spent hours helping my sister and I. Thank you for all your help we will be back!

I needed to get my husband a car. His was a gas guzzler and needed more and more repairs. I looked around at a few dealers, Craigslist and CarMax. Then I heard about Chris and Used Cars LA from our son’s friend.
We aren’t car people particularly, but knew we wanted something clean, economical and reliable. I contacted Chris, went to the lot to drive a few cars. I really liked a Prius he had, but the price was more than we cared to spend.
He made some other recommendations and then started searching for the right car for us at the right price. He is easy to work with and no pressure at all. As it turned out he found us another Prius at a lower price. Since it really was the car I wanted, we spent more than planned, but not beyond our comfort level.
We couldn’t be happier with it. Chris has many years experience and made sure it was a good car. He grew up in the car business so has at least a 10+ year advantage.
I took the car on a weekend trip and am so pleased. My husband loves it too. It is a great car.
A headlight burned out. (or maybe none of us noticed it?) Chris said no problem, bring it by and he will replace it. I appreciate his willingness to help even after the sale.
I am very happy with the entire search and buying experience so can easily recommend Chris. He will take care of you too. We stayed in touch with texts, phone and email throughout the search.

These guys took care of my car for a great price — it’s hard to find an «honest» person in the business, but have found someone here.
Very friendly and would definitely use again.

I have been looking and saving up for a car for the past few months and I had my mind set on a 1^st generation Toyota Tacoma. I had spent a little over a month looking on autotrader, craigslist, and driving around my local used car dealerships, before finding the car that suited me best.
I was pretty set on buying a truck I found in Arizona, but before leaving for my credit union (to get a loan) I decided to check autotrader ONE last time. Lucky for me, I saw a new truck had been added, and that it was on my way to get financing.
I stopped in, met the owner Gale and his son Christopher, and within 10 minutes I KNEW i had found a great place to buy a car, and to top it off they had the EXACT car I had been looking for with LOWER miles, and in better condition! Not to mention it was at an incredibly competitive price.
I decided then and there that this was the truck for me and told them to take the «For Sale» sign off, that it was already sold! I was instantly approved for a very low APR at my financial institution, and thought I would have my new truck within 24 hours… Man was I wrong.
My companies current accountant decided to pursue work elsewhere, and left without updating months of financial information. Since this was my first time getting a loan I didn’t really know what to expect or what I needed to show my credit union. I quickly learned that the information that I had from my accountants records were patchy at BEST. They told me that they couldn’t approve me with incomplete financial records… The excitement that I had felt about buying my first truck were slowly crumbling before my eyes.
After talking to Gale, he assured me that there was nothing to worry about, and that we would find a way to make it work. Suffice to say it took over a week, but I finally managed to get my loan approved through a different bank, all thanks to Gale’s recommendation. I have to admit there were quite a few times during that week where I honestly thought I wasn’t going to be able to buy the truck of my dreams at a price I could afford.
I have worked in sales my entire life and this is a place where I didn’t feel like I was being «sold». Chris and Gale were just a couple of guys trying to help me find the vehicle that best suited my needs, at a price that wasn’t going to leave me hungry. I am extremely thankful that I decided to check autotrader «one last time.»
After I picked up the truck I brought it to a toyota specialist «Lextech» that I had found through reading Unilocal reviews. After a detailed inspection they confirmed what I had hoped, that the car was in AMAZING condition, and they could not find anything wrong with it. After the inspection a couple of the guys asked what i paid for it, and when I told them their only response was «MAN, YOU SCORED»
I recommend this place 100%, Give these guys a call and if they don’t have what your looking for… They’ll find it!

We almost purchased a used car at this friendly establishment. But alas, we had to reconsider once we realized what the finance terms/​repayment terms were. But, I still wanted to write a review in regards to Christopher’s service skills and very generous behavior at the end. When the deal fell through, on our end.
Christopher and I had been in touch for a few weeks in regards to purchasing a car. He was always easy to reach and thorough in his explanations by email. He assured us that he could get us into a proper car, even with not so stellar credit. And he almost did! So bravo for that.
We hit a few bumps along the way though. We went in on a Saturday and settled on a car. He asked us to put down a couple hundred to insure that we would be purchasing through his lot, pending approval on the application. He said we would hear back in a few hours (but aren’t finance co’s usually closed on Saturdays?). But we received no call. So we called him. He said he was very busy with clients and that no word had come yet. So we let it go.
The next day was Sunday and he did call to apologize for not phoning back (mind you, this was Labor Day weekend, so we suspect he was having a good time somehwere and perhaps put work aside for a moment, which we understand totally– we just wish it wasn’t on our deal). So we started to lose hope and steam.
From then on, we had very good communication with him. We were informed that the finance co’s were closed on Labor Day. Fair enough. He called us early the next day to let us know that we would have an answer in a few hours. He did call us within a few and gave us good news. We were approved and the car was ours. But the truth is, after hearing the very firm terms (high interest rate and short repayment period) we started to have second thoughts. We also worried that the car was not under any warranty. I think we basically had enough days to really think about what was happening. So we decided to wait on it. We told Christopher that there was no deal. He was very upset but not rude. We said that we would like a refund on the deposit amount. He did re-​iterate that he was upset that the deal fell through after all of his hard work. We understood but at the end of the day, it is our money and we have to do what we feel is best.
There was another deal breaker. The deposit amount seemed to be in flux. First, it was set for $ 1000, and that was okay with us. But then later it jumped to $ 1250 and that didn’t sit well with my husband and I. I know it seems like small change in the scheme of car things… but it’s the principle– if you give your word, why must it change so. It felt shaky.
So I went over to get the $ 200 deposit back. He did not reprimand, glare, or give me any hard time at all. Basically, he didn’t act like a bitch, which was what I expected (Oh me of little faith). I was with my ma, she felt very bad as well. He just politely handed over the money, definitely bummed but not rude to us. I felt pretty bad, that’s the truth. I would like to work with him again in the future after building our credit so we can do this proper and smooth. Good down payment, good terms. No problem.
Christopher is a very nice guy all-​around. Professional when it came down to it. I am pretty sure he can get you into a rig if you want one. Seems to work magic. But, go and find out for yourselves!

We bought a Toyota Prius from Chris last week. When we showed up, he had the paper work ready to go, and the car was clean. What impressed me the most was that Chris put principle over profit. Before we purchased the car, Chris had the mechanic go through the car, and the car had a couple of minor issues. Rather than sell me the car «as is», he had the small leaks fixed, but still honored our agreed upon price, cutting into his profit. You don’t find that very often in the car business. Chris earned my trust and deserves yours too.

I sold my 1990 Ford Festiva on Saturday of last week and was in NEED of a low cost reliable car to get me back and forth to work. Mind you, I «put the cart before the horse» so to speak and just like always had to make something happen — QUICK! In my search for used car dealers who who accept a not so great credit score — I stumbled upon Used Cars Los Angeles.
When I found the car I had to have I contacted Chris on Sunday morning and left a message. He called me back within minutes and I told him my situation. He not only was a «down to earth» kind of guy he was thinking ahead to help me expedite the process. He sent me a credit app to get pre approved and I was VERY satisfied with his customer service skills. GO CHRIS! Monday morning rolls around and Chris is still contacting me to get the necessary items for the financing. In a mater of a couple of hours I was approved and on my way to pick up my new beauty.
When I got there all the paperwork was prepared and the car looked fantastic and was ready to go. They gave me all the CARFAX info and had their master mechanic explain all the ins and outs of my car.
The bottom line is folks, if you want someone who will look you in the eye and say he has your best interest in mind, I highly recommend Used Cars with Chris. The only thing in life that you have in your «word» and if you want a trustworthy «family» run dealership — go here.
Can’t wait to cruise PCH in my new Miata! Thanks Chris — see you soon!
