5-Star Experience at AutoNation Toyota Cerritos!
5-Star Experience at AutoNation Toyota Cerritos! Team Rush Hour!! I recently purchased a car from AutoNation Toyota Cerritos, and I am beyond impressed with the entire experience! From the moment I walked in, the staff was welcoming and professional, making me feel right at home. My sales consultant was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and attentive to my needs. They listened carefully to my preferences and helped me find the perfect vehicle that fit my budget and lifestyle. The entire buying process was smooth, transparent, and stress-free. No high-pressure tactics, just honest advice and great customer service. The financing team worked hard to get me an excellent deal, and they took the time to explain all my options in detail. The showroom itself was clean, modern, and had a fantastic selection of vehicles. I was able to take my time test-driving different models and asking all the questions I had. Plus, the delivery process was seamless, and they made sure I felt confident with all the features of my new car before I left. If you're looking for a top-notch dealership with outstanding customer service, I highly recommend AutoNation Toyota Cerritos. You’ll get great deals, a wide selection of cars, and an amazing team to work with. I couldn’t be happier with my purchase!
I love my new car
I been looking for a car for a few months so when I saw my Lexus I was so happy and it’s everything I wanted and more

John Rio Jr. was very professional & worked with me during my car leasing experience. He was also very helpful with setting up my car & explaining an EV vehicle! It’s my first Ev!
Exactly what I wanted and need!
Love the luxury of Lexus as I had previously owned one. Car has already exceeded my expectations! Drives and handles like a brand new car. Was fully detailed upon arrival to pick it up. Plan to have this car for a long time. When I need another I’ll be calling Matthew again!

Excellent customer service, detailed oriented, honest
Excellent customer service, detailed oriented, honest deliver what they promised, a lot of selections very very low mileage like a a prenew
After 11 years and 70,000 miles, great car.
I maintain this car at the local Lexus dealership. The performance tires last about 25,000 miles and it does require premium fuel. It’s a 6-cylinder with plenty of power and has a sporty feel. Mine’s AT with paddle shift (which we never use). No real issues, although the carbon cleaning that was recommended was a $250 surprise. Still a solid, dependable and enjoyable car.

Purchased a Mercedes-Benz E55 AMG
I purchased a used Mercedes-Benz E55 AMG from the Carmax in Costa Mesa, CA about a month ago. I started out by calling the Carmax and reaching a sales agent. She worked with me by setting aside the car so that I could fly down to pick it up. She picked me up from the airport about 15 miles away from their dealership. When I saw the car, I found some minor cosmetic issues with the car and Carmax assured me that they would repair them at my local Carmax in Roseville, CA. I will be writing a review about that Carmax as well. They issued me a form stating repairs to be done at my local dealership. I informed the salesperson that I would be pushing the car a bit and she was fine with it. After the test drive, the car seemed to be in great condition, so we headed in for the paperwork. The appearance inside of the dealership building did not convey a welcoming feeling though. It felt like a warehouse with desks in it. The people within the building were nice and friendly though. The paperwork was pretty quick as I already had a loan check from the credit union. It took about 30 minutes and then I was on my way. Overall, I would say the experience was positive.
So dang sexy, powerful, fairly fuel efficient
About 25mpg average. The exterior is just so attractive to me. The user interface control knob in the center console is interesting, but not troublesome. Surprising amount of trunk space!

Very reliable trouble free car.
My biggest gripe with the car is it does not have the performance of my previous 2001 IS300. Lexus could have used a more performance oriented engine. Otherwise, very reliable, trouble free, and handles very well on the road.

Super Satisfied
Very Friendly. Totally appreciate the customer service that I received. Got me financed even with my situation. PS. Arthur was great. Thank you Green Light Auto
If you can get the GS350 or is350 do it
Review from a current 09 is250 owner who wishes he was told these things before buying. It’s small but spacious enough to fit the very basic things. Seats don’t fold down in the rear I never knew that before I bought it so keep that in mind. With that being said the trunk is very large for what you need to put in there on a daily basis. Models before 2010 don’t have Bluetooth music. Engine is a bit more powerful then you think when you first see 2.5L V6 but the torque is really the winner with handling in performance for that category of the car. Car takes 91 octane as a minimum at the gas pump don’t buy a Lexus and cheap out on gas or good oil. Car is great for a basic modification platform if your a young guy looking to get into modding aftermarket is pretty great. If your looking at any of these 2006-2012 IS models CHECK FOR STICKY DASH!!!!!! For me it wasn’t a deal breaker but it does get annoying sometimes if you live in hotter climates. Speaker system is great if you get the mark levinson package in yours. Steering is great as most people say. Gas mileage I get is 26 MPG combined city and highway with shell 91 gas in my tank. Car is great at what it’s meant to do but make sure if your wanting enough power to keep up with most v6 engines (go with the is350) or enough cargo room to go to ikea or Home Depot (go with the gs350). Also if your looking for the is250 for a basic commuter car make sure as soon as you purchase it do this list :Oil change and filter buy high quality oil ( if you live in a warm climate put only 10W-30 oil because the stock 5W recommendation will fail you and the car will burn it all off and run horribly) because yes the 250 burns oil, get the K&N high flow air filter it helps just give the car a little more air to feel a bit faster which helps in this slow thing, general inspection at your local mechanic for rust or general part ware, new headlights because most are fogged from 06-2012 or get headlight clear by McGuires.

Looks caught my eye, reliability sold me
The car has been as advertised. If you know what to expect from the car you will be very happy with it. Its not the 350 so why complain about the performance when it was never meant to be a screamer. You get a great car with some power that will run forever. Its my firs Lexus but wont be my last.

Never a problem with it
Never needed any repairs and it had no problem fixing a 6 foot person without feeling cramped. I see no need for the higher end models, this sporty model has all the bells and whistles.

I recently purchased a 2025 Honda Pilot from AutoNation
I recently purchased a 2025 Honda Pilot from AutoNation in Costa Mesa, and the experience was fantastic from start to finish. The process was smooth and straightforward, the vehicle was absolutely beautiful, and the pricing was right on point. The customer service was top-notch ? friendly, professional, and truly focused on making the buying experience easy and enjoyable. I couldn?t be happier with my purchase and highly recommend AutoNation Costa Mesa to anyone looking for a new car.
The best car I have ever owned
Simple maintenance, super reliable. incredibly comfortable, and defiantly has a wow factor in Star-fire white. Everything in the car is perfectly placed. I can reach everything like switches and buttons without having to look for them. The ability to set the AC, wipers and cruise control and just drive in comfort is hard to place a value on. Defiantly looks good when valetted at the club, and they don't even know how good the gas mileage is. lol.

Great customer service
Although the car we wanted didnt work out, the customer service was excellent. MARCUS is a STAR! He should be in management. I have brought many mercedes in the past. Carmax is turning the tide when it comes to purchasing vehicles. The best thing to do when you buy any car is to take it to another mechanic, and then bring it back to the place to be fixed within the warranty period. The Truck I purchased from them a year ago had a few issues but they did take care of it and I've not have any problems since. Carmax has set the bar high for purchasing returning and anything to do with cars. BRAVO!
Solid Vehicle
I traded my 2009 Acura Tl for a 2015 Lexus Is 250 F-Sport Awd. New to the Toyota/Lexus brand, as I had been a loyal Honda/Acura owner my entire life. My biggest concern when purchasing a vehicle is reliability. The Lexus brand has great reliability scores and reviews from their owners. I have been pleasantly satisfied with this vehicle so far. Great aggressive modern styling, sporty handling and fantastic maneuverability. The AWD has proved to be impressive in snowy conditions. I've owned the vehicle for 9 months with 35k miles and have had zero issues. I called the nearest Lexus dealership to schedule routine maintence and they have a concierge service that will deliver a loaner to you, and then return your car when they are finished. They must not have many cars in the shop to be able to offer this service. This is a 5 year old vehicle and the car still drives and smells like a new car. My only complaints are that there is a lack of storage in the vehicle, the cup holders are awkwardly placed, and the factory remote start requires a monthly subscription (ridiculous!). Overall, a quality vehicle you would expect from the Lexus brand.

I want to give a huge thank you to Salvador O.
I want to give a huge thank you to Salvador O. in the service center at Honda AutoNation in Costa Mesa for his outstanding customer service and professionalism. He helped us with several issues on our minivan and went above and beyond throughout the entire process. What really stood out was his patience?he took the time to clearly explain the repairs, outlined our different options, and even helped us prioritize what needed attention right away versus what could wait. He also walked us through the financing options in a way that was easy to understand, which made the whole experience stress-free. It?s rare to find someone in a service center who combines technical knowledge with such genuine care for customers. Salvador made us feel confident in our decisions, and we truly appreciate his hard work and dedication. If you?re looking for someone who treats you with respect, communicates clearly, and truly has the customer?s best interest at heart, ask for Salvador!
