Michael and the crew were absolutely amazing.
Michael and the crew were absolutely amazing. I bought my daughter a 2016 wrangler from the team and I couldn't be happier. The most personable local dealership around. They helped from A-Z. Financing, securing the car - and we left happier than a chipmunk. Thanks again fellas.
Incredible Ride
I've owned a BMW Z3 2.8 L - it is truly one of the best balanced cars I've ever driven. It can take corners at speed as if it is on rails. The 6 cylinder engine sounds like no other. The power and torque curve are continual and strong. Maintaining an older Z3 is very easy. Top mounted oil filter element and plenty of room to work in the engine bay.

Honest & Fair
Purchased a 2017 BMW 7 Series here. Pricing was fair, they were very upfront and honest. I've bought many cars in the past, it was very refreshing to be treated like a human and without the typical "games" that dealerships play. Thank you!
Purchased New
Wife’s second car, driven sparingly, garage kept, fun car to drive, 5 speed manual, 23,477 original miles. We have gotten old and it is a young person’s car.

Meritxell was very professional,friendly,give the deal perfect for me , I’m very happy Whith the deal and Meri, I like the dealership.
Best value car I've ever owned
I have owned a 97' Z3 2.8i roadster for 3 years now and have loved every second of my experience. I have never had any serious maintenance problems with the car, and it was always gotten me where I needed to go. It is a blast to take corners in, it's quick, it's everything you want from a roadster. The only thing I wish it had was a little more power. It's certainly not a slug, but it doesn't put you back in your seat like a muscle car will. For being a cheaper version of the M class (and costing about half the insurance as an M) this car brings the most value for your dollar you can get.

Myles the sales person was very helpful he bent over
Myles the sales person was very helpful he bent over backwards to help us find a truck he was very knowledgeable and very patient with us. Glen came out and spoke with us and gave us the pros and cons of buying a new truck or used we decided on the new truck and thanks to the finance guy.
Emaculate Engine Condition, easy manuvuer,Sporty
This Z3 is a well maintained by mature owner when I bought it in 2004, I put extra care of engine and scheduled maintenances, it needs a new canvas top; you can buy generic canvas top at the cost of $350 online. Excellent for pleasure driving BMW Z3 along the coastline of California with the roof top off.

My husband and I just purchased our 3rd used vehicle from St. Charles Toyota and couldn't be happier (The other two cars are still running beautifully). Thumbs up to Bob Pearson and the management team of Joey Mahoney and Efren Martinez in making the process pleasant and seamless. Did I say this is our 3rd vehicle we have purchased from them?

Car Source David Gurevitz Oct 13, 2025 “ This is the 2nd car I bought from Alonzo at Car Source. I found him to be one of the best. As the same as the last time, I told him what I was looking for and a few days later he found it. In the past, I have tried this with numerous other car lots. And needless to say, have never been successful. Alonzo always comes through. He's very professional, but also honest and down to earth. Thank you for being my "go to guy". I appreciate you...

THE EXPERIENCE IN BUYING A CAR I'VE EVER HAD. I DIDN'T HAVE TO DO ANYTHING EXCEPT TEST DRIVE AND TELL BOB WHAT I LIKED! I COULDN'T GET FINANCED ANYWHERE ELSE, BUT AT MARTINS, BOB WAS NOT JUDGMENTAL OR CRITICAL OF MY PAST. MARTINS GAVE ME A CHANCE AND IM SO APPRECIATIVE! CARING, QUICK, AND CORRECT SHOULD BE MARTIN'S MISSION STATEMENT!

Matt Spady Professional
Matt Spady was very professional and helpful during his demonstration of a 2017 Avalon Limited. His efforts assisted me to narrow down a wide range of cars I was considering. Even though I ended up purchasing a different car at another dealer, Matt emailed back congratulating on my purchase. I would recommend Matt to anyone wishing to shop at Toyota of Danville.

Awesome Service
I had great service from Jessica who got in touch with me soon after I looked at a 2018 Honda Civic online and she was very helpful in getting her guys to get the car ready for me to test drive. I would definitely recommend going there if you are looking for a used car. They have a good selection of vehicles to choose from.
