Love my Subaru!
My only Osijek so far is I bought it so I’d have room to put my grandchildren’s car seat in back. Very little leg room for them

2006 Subaru Forester 2.5X review
Most reliable car I have ever owned.
This car is so much fun to own and drive. The Turbo and manual 5-speed makes this an exciting car to drive. It has more power than the BMW I once owned. You will never regret owning this car.

Elk Grove Kia review
The Kia redesign is real.
The Kia redesign is real. I was really impressed with the style and level of detail. Really love our new 2025 EV6. Tonee Lee was the best salesperson I worked with across all of the dealers at Elk Grove Auto Mall. I couldn't be happier with how engaging he made the test drive and how easy he made my lease of my brand new EV6. He gave me no pressure at all but just wanted to make sure me and my wife got the car we wanted. It was our first time buying a car in 15 years and our first look at EVs. He really gave the best introduction I could've asked for and really tried to make sure we were getting exactly what we wanted. He also made sure to take care of us with ANY issue with the car or touch ups and even greeted us at our service appointments. Go see Tonee. Love our new car - can't stop driving it!

Love my new Explorer
Came here for a really great looking Ford Explorer, the salesman Will was great and had paperwork for the recent suspension components the dealership replaced after finding some issue during their safety inspection. Ended up going home with the rig. I absolutely love it!

Fred Wolfe Automotive review
We have purchased many cars over the years for our family
We have purchased many cars over the years for our family and I must say that this is the best experience we've ever had with a car dealership. Zach and Derrick were very open, friendly and transparent. They were a pleasure to work with and made us feel happy we made the trip from Columbus. We will look to them again if we need another car purchase. We highly recommend!
