"Wonderful! Great vehicles, competitive prices, and with knowledgable and helpful staff. Thanks!"

"I don't really write reviews all that much, but I wanted to make an exception for this business. My wife and I needed to buy a used vehicle recently, and we were looking for a particular make, model and year. After going to a number of ‘shady’ used car dealerships in the Valley (disorganized, dirty, full of either impatient or apathetic salesmen looking to make a quick buck with overpriced, crappy-looking used cars)... finally the car we were looking for showed up in a search engine that brought us to California Auto Resources. When we arrived, we found Bill's zero-pressure, "take your time" approach with us so refreshing! This meant a lot to us because this was a big purchase decision and we’d already been practically traumatized by our experiences at most of the other dealerships. Turns out California Auto Resources is a husband/wife owned and operated business. Bill is the meticulous mechanic who flips the cars, while his wife, Angela, handles the business/bookkeeping end of things. After a thorough examination, we took the car for a test drive, and it decided we really liked the car. However, we still had some hesitations before purchasing, some of which could be alleviated by a third-party pre-purchase mechanical inspection. Bill allowed us to take it to a nearby mechanic to have it inspected. Upon inspection, the other mechanic discovered the brake pads were a little worn and might need replacing. Bill said, “No problem,” and he made sure we had fresh brake pads on the car before the ink was dry on our contract. But the story doesn't end there. After we took it home, we started to discover that the power locks started to malfunction intermittently. Also, since we were so used to only using the key-fob to lock/unlock doors, it took us a while to realize that the actual physical key didn't work on the door or the trunk (only the ignition). This resulted in running the risk of getting locked out of the car. I tried trouble-shooting the issue myself, but couldn’t find a solution. So I called Bill and asked him if he had any suggestions on what to do. Legally, we had bought the car “as-is,” so I wasn't really expecting much help. However, he told me to bring the car into his shop, and he ended up fixing the problem – free of charge! We recently got the car back from him and things are working smoothly now. Bill really went above-and-beyond for us, even though he didn’t have to. I just wanted to write this review in appreciation to Bill and Angela. It is rare to get this level of honesty, integrity and customer care when purchasing a used vehicle. So when you experience it, you simply can't help but to tell everyone you can. Thank you, Bill and Angela, for patiently working with us, answering all of our questions, and taking great care of us! We have been, and will continue to, point all our friends to California Auto Resources when they are in the market for a used car."

"I bought my second vehicle from them today and am very pleased with the vehicles and the service. This place is a real gem. The owners Bill and Angela are very polite, kind, and low pressure. I always feel comfortable there. They specialize in low milage, older vehicles and the quality control is excellent. This is the place to go if you want to pay a reasonable price for a unique and quality older used vehicle. I have driven all the way from Lake Isabella to purchase from them twice."

"My daughter found the car online and knew it was what she wanted. The 1999 Acura Integra LS was in very good shape and had been well taken care of. We bought the car in August and it’s running great. Bill and Angela are very professional, honest and fair. If you’re looking for people you can trust when buying a used vehicle this is the place. I plan to check in with them again when our son is ready to buy his first car. Thanks Bill and Angela."

"The owners are so helpful and very transparent. Bill was answering questions before I even had a chance to ask them. He was patient as I went over the car and made me feel very positive about buying from them. Angela walked me through the lending process and held my hand every step (not literally though cuz they were very conscientious about covid safety protocols). Definitely would recommend them."
