Eastside Motoring

Lorenzo Alonge is a thief,scammer and a rat lier garbage of a man pretending to sell vehicles a his dealer ship when all he does is steal people’s money I’m still waiting for him to return my $ 18,195 dollars that I paid for a car on November 17 2025 that this garbage sold to someone else I just hope that by tomorrow march 6 he doesn’t pay so my lawyer can take him to court. This man is a THIEF AND A RAT

This dealership is a scam. We paid for a vehicle the did not give us. They lied and said they are waiting on the title and it never came. We are now seeking legal action because they would not reimbursed us the money nor give us the vehicle we paid for.

This dealership is a scam and an absolute embarrassment of a car dealership. This dealership deserves to have its dealer license taken away. They stole 18,000$ dollars from us and refuse to give the money back or the car we supposedly purchased. Lorenzo is a con man and a horrible human the way he dismissed us and treated us. Please don’t get scammed like we did.

Dishonest dealership. They will sell you a misrepresented car. Stay far from this location. They are fraudsters.

Recently purchased a car from Nick at Eastside Motoring. Had an amazing experience from start to finish!! I would recommend Nick and Eastside for their next car purchase.

seller is false advertising on multiple platforms, hiding a cars accident history! i checked carfax saw the accident and proved they lied

So, in November 2024, I bought a vehicle from Lorenzo at Eastside Motoring who also go by Specialty Auto Sales. This is my 60th car so I’m not new to the process. I purchased my last eight from other states and had them shipped to me. I expect dealers to avoid mentioning issues with vehicles if they can. I also understand that I’m buying a used vehicle and cannot expect it to be pristine. Here’s a list of what I encountered and accepted without complaint. • I didn't negotiate the vehicle price. • I didn't xxxxx about them sending only one key fob, when replacements are $300+ • I didn't whine about them saying on video that a paint chip was "tree sap". • I didn't complain that they assured me the leather was in great condition when there are four separate dark spots measuring 4"+ • I didn't complain about the undisclosed 4-foot-long scrape deep into the plastic molding and down to the metal of the rear passenger door along the bottom on the driver's side. • I didn't complain about the multiple dings in the bodywork. • I didn't raise xxxx about the poor paint work on the passenger rear window pillar. • I didn't xxxxx about the multiple electrical glitches •       Driver's headrest won't adjust •       Temperature adjustment glitches, and won't work sometimes •       Warning light at startup • I didn't complain about the sunroof sounding like it's shredding metal when it retracts and closes • I didn't complain about the loud suspension squeak whenever the front-end goes over a speedbump I know the dings, chips, and scratches were already on the car, because they are on the shipper’s BOL and noted at pickup, before loading on the transport truck. At the front end, Lornzo was on the ball. Answering enquiries, and even taking video to show me the vehicle’s condition. However, once they had my $16K deposit, they stopped being responsive. I now had skin in the game, so they didn’t feel obligated to do anything without me having to chase them. Add to this that they required a $250 deposit to hold the vehicle. I paid by AMEX and after the deal was concluded and the vehicle shipped, it took two weeks and multiple texts, emails, and calls to get them to refund the deposit. I now have no doubt that they would have kept it, if I hadn’t been persistent. Lorenzo blamed it on his assistant failing to process it, but I am suspicious. And after all that, the one thing that really bothered me is that they shipped the car with the center rear seatbelt unanchored. The bottom anchor-plate was just hanging from the seatbelt. That’s a serious issue. A fifth passenger would not be secured, and in an accident the anchor-plate which is a 3”x3” hunk of metal, would whip around the cabin, hitting the rear passengers. Lorenzo was “shocked” that it shipped in this condition and offered to reimburse me for getting it installed at the dealer. Well, that was the last time I heard from anyone at Eastside. I sent repeated requests for their agreement that I could take it to a local shop for the installation which saves me from a trip to the dealer and them from paying dealer rates. All I got for the past two weeks is… crickets. They never intended to reimburse me. It was just to shut me up. The joke’s on them. I have time and motivation to inform others of their practices. I have every video, text, and email to substantiate all my assertions. If you are considering a vehicle purchase, stay far away from Eastside Motoring AKA Specialty Auto Sales.

These people should be put in jail.I'll leave it at that absolute worst experience.I ever had purchasing anything in my life

Had an amazing experience at Eastside Motoring! The team was professional, friendly, and genuinely invested in helping me find the right car. The process was smooth from start to finish, with transparent pricing and no pressure. I’d highly recommend Eastside Motoring to anyone looking for a quality vehicle and outstanding service. Will definitely be coming back!

They really deserve a zero. Do not buy a car here, instant regret! Dry rot in the tires, nail in a tire, cancelled warranty for non-payment, near impossible to get ahold of someone when there’s an issue. Run, don’t walk. Many people with similar issues- obviously there is a pattern of dishonesty.
