Corolla Dream Car
Toyota salesman Arnold Balboa was excellent in explaining car features, expectations, and model's data. He was very informative, patient, reassuring, and answered all questions asked by my husband and daughter and me. The deal he presented was just what we wanted and made it easy to understand each and every step to finalizing the sale. We appreciate the way he explained the car's features to our daughter about her dream car. His dedication to contacting her and us through emails and calls each day after we left was very reassuring. We are very very pleased with his dedication . Toyota dealership with Albert recieves high marks from us. The whole experience will have us returning and spreading high praise to all our family and friends. Thank you Albert for a great experience and a very happy daughter !!

Kenny Mejia, at AutoNation Toyota Corpus Christi
Mr. Kenny Mejia, sales associate from AutoNation Toyota, was very thorough in selling me a 2014 Rav4 vehicle. My intention was to just get a possible price, but left with a new Rav4 2014. Mr. Mejia presented all details of the vehicle in a very professional, non-pressured manner. He was very polite and courteous in all aspects of the sell. In the future I will continue to buy Toyota. Mr. Kenny Mejia, did an outstanding job and Toyota is very fortunate to have him selling such a great product.

Relaxing and easy going purchase experience
Had a great vehicle perching experience at AutoNation Corpus Christi. David Mendosa was our car salesman. He was very knowledgeable and professional in assuring that all our questions were answered regarding our vehicle. David did an outstanding job in explaining to us the all of the features, safety aspects, and capabilities of our new Toyota tundra 1794. We were impressed with his desire to fully educate us on our impending purchase to ensure that we would be comfortable and content with our purchase. In the end we were pleased with our experience and highly recommend you seek out David Mendoza at AutoNation Corpus Christi.

Saved money. Avoided annoyance. Received great service.
I recently purchased a new Toyota Corolla back in May from a one Joe Harris at Autonation Corpus Christi. A first car purchase can be a pretty daunting task, not to mention an obnoxious one. As I learned, many salesman can sense your inexperience and try to coerce you into thinking that their car is the only option and you'd be a complete idiot if you do not purchase their vehicle. Yes, a great way to get customers right? They refuse to understand or comprehend the phrase "I am not looking at buying today" and continually pester you that the 2013 car that has been there for over a year may be gone by tomorrow morning. Nice try and a hurricane may hit Corpus next week. My experience at Toyota was different. Joe was actually the first salesman I went to in my two week dealer hop in search of the best deal. Joe was also coincidentally the first one to not obnoxiously and incessantly flood my inbox with annoying voicemails. I jumped from Toyota to Honda to Mazda to Nissan. I simply wanted a plain reliable car to get me from point A to point B. Something that all these brands could obviously offer (no respective salesman would of course tell you that, I guess you can't expect them to). Toyota, more specifically Joe, offered me the best customer service and price. On top of all this, Toyota had by far the least annoying staff. Joe was willing to work with me on prices and I was able to drive away satisfied that I got the best deal I could find. Car salesman naturally get a bad rep from, well, everyone. There is some validity to this, at least at the other dealerships in Corpus. But Joe is one that is actually respectable. He doesn't act like a conniving annoying sleaze ball that will treat you like a prisoner at Guantanamo Bay in order to convince you to "drive off of the lot with a car today". No water boarding at Toyota. If your in the market, go see Joe and get a Toyota. Toyota as a brand sells itself, I have nothing but awesome things to say about my new car but the awesome service is what put me over the top. No one wants to buy a car from an ass. What you will find at other dealerships: Mazda: Pompous jerks that wear their aviator sunglasses inside while talking to you, you know who you are, this isn't Top Gun Honda: Cocky annoying kids that can hardly grow facial hair and a Godfather type manager that interrogates you with his car salesmen disciples, nice try with the cult interrogation tactics though Nissan: actually pretty nice staff, but I found out that Golden Corral gets better reviews than the Sentra engine. Only black mark of the dealership is an annoying lady that constantly leaves you voicemails even a month and a half after your visit, and she never sent any selfies either! (this sort of applies at all the other dealerships other than Toyota) All of you dealers, take a lesson from Joe Harris.He understands that the best looking girl at the party isn't going to beg to go home with you. Cheers! Andrew

Best Salesman Ever........Arnold Balboa!!!
If you want a great salesman, go see Arnold. This is our 2 Toyota purchase with him this year. Wife ordered a 2014 SE Camry and it had to come from somewhere else. When the car showed up it had 6000 miles on it. What did Arnold do? He had another one delivered the same day, plus got the windows tinted for free. Always a full tank of gas and other perks. We couldn't believe how great Auto Nation Toyota Corpus Christi really is. Not only did he have my wife's car detailed on time for delivery, he wash my Tundra while we were waiting. Best service ever like back in the 50's............See Arnold, he'll take care of you and treat you right.

2012 Tundra for 25K complimentary service
Took my 2012 Tundra for 25K complimentary service. The service advisor call me an hour later, that my right rear tire had a sidewall puncture and required replacement. And told me he could get me a new one for $277.00 dollars. I told he that I would take care of it. When I pick up my truck I notice it had grease stains on the door sill scuff plate, which when I drop it off the service writer told me how clean the truck was. when I got home I took the both right side tires and start to inspect them and I found no nail or puncture sidewall as the advisor claimed. I did fine that they had left a bolt loose on my front skid plate and had request the tires to be top off at 35 pounds. when I checked them one had 47 pounds and the other three where between 42 to 44 pounds. So please be aware it can happen to you.

I know I'm taken care of
I have bought both new and used cars at this dealership and have been pleased with every experience. Paul Beaudoin is patient and helpful and eager to get you what you want. Not pushy like other salesmen I've come across in the past. Pleasant experience when buying vehicles! Scotty Evans in Service is always clear with his explanations as to what my car needs and doesn't need done. I never feel like I'm being taken advantage of. With Paulie and Scotty, I know I'm going to be taken care of not only when buying a vehicle but also in the long run for servicing it.

AWESOME PURCHASE FOR 1ST-TIME BUYER
My daugher, husband and I had a very pleasant experience purchasing a pre-owned vehicle at Autonation Toyota. The facility is nice, the employees are so pleasant and happy to help my daugher make her first-time buyer experience a good one that she will always remember. She is sold on Toyotas and that is exactly what she found at Autonation. The price was very reasonable, the finance managers, Jeff and Steve were so very helpful and patient with my daughter in the purchase process. David Wickwar, our salesman was very down to earth, personal, and his assistance and service was one that ANYONE would be delighted to be assisted by when purchasing a car. If you go to Autonation, tell David that M&M sent you! FYI: My daughter is so totally excited about her car.

Great Experience!
Working with Paul was great. Was not pushy like most car salesman. Listened for what I wanted and worked to find a vehicle that matched my wants and needs. Even went out of his way to find a vehicle at another lot in another city and worked to get the car to me because it matched what I wanted. Will work with Paul any time I need another car and will make sure I refer all my friends and family to him.
