THE AUTO CITY STORY
When we started Auto City nearly 10 years ago, we looked at all the things we knew people disliked about car shopping and made sure we did the exact opposite – Like up-front pricing that takes haggling out of the equation. Our early customers loved not feeling the pressure of trying to negotiate a lower price, and we’ve stuck to that approach ever since. Then we added in our you know what we know concept – every vehicle listed on our website has a history report with it, so you’ll know as much as we know about the vehicle, including accidents and major repairs. But then we decided to go even further and we made sure all our staff worked together to make buying a car from Auto City a relaxed, no-pressure experience – that means not rushing people to make a decision, or pushing towards higher-priced vehicles. You set the pace and we follow. We also made sure that every single vehicle on our lot was only of the highest quality – that means choosing only the best and still giving it a thorough inspection, servicing, and detailing. Finally, we worked hard to establish relationships with many of the top banks and lenders to make sure we can help you find the financing you need, whatever the status of your credit.
Within two years of opening at our original location, we were successful enough to open the spacious new location in El Cajon where we remain today with its full service department outfitted with the latest in automotive technologies and certified technicians. We’ve put the final nail in the coffin of bad used car shopping with an approach and a team dedicated to one thing and one thing only – making the used car buying process something you will love. Come experience the difference for yourself.
Auto City is also proud of the following:
- USAA certified dealership.
- Member of National Independent Auto Dealer Association.
- Carfax partner.
- A+ Better Business Bureau rating.
- Nearly a third of our customers are repeats and referrals.

What Our Customers Are Saying
Had a very easy, pleasant experience with Ramil, Obed and Stan at Autocity. Was in and out in under three hours and left with a great vehicle. Thanks guys.
Having contacted the dealer and requesting financing was near closing, so, I was not able to speak with them until the next day. I was contacted and although I had a hold on the vehicle, another buyer was there. I was not happy about that until they called me to tell me it was available for me to purchase. I went to the dealer with the proper paperwork and was done and in my new vehicle driving off in just over an hour. It was the easiest and best vehicle purchase I have ever been involved with. Extremely friendly folks that provided a super quick, hassle free experience. I highly recommend this dealership!!!
Just purchased a vehicle at Auto city in El Cajon. Worked with Obed Pizano and it was a great experience. He was very helpfull with the whole process and felt like I got treated like family. Everybody was very helpfull and worked really hard to get me financed on a great deal. Need a great deal, come to Auto city.!!
I purchased a beautiful 2016 Toyota Corolla in less than one hour and a half. J R and the manager both hustled to sell me the car of my dreams and constantly reassured me that they were doing everything in their ability to get me the lowest deal on my new car. The car was clean, had a friendly staff, and a wide variety of vehicles available. The transaction was smooth and quick and I would defiantly recommend Auto City to anybody wishing to purchase a car.
As a first time buyer, I was scared that I would be roped into something I would regret. I had seen the reviews and seen the website and it sold me. I had visited other dealers and they asked too much. Everyone is helpful and I do not regret (yet) coming to this place.
These guys are pretty dope. No haggling, no sitting around for hours, no BS. So I was in the market for a car. But until next year, I was trying to get a feel of what I could get with my horrendous credit score. I first saw this one one tiny 4 banger but the payment was ridiculous, I guess because the car was pretty much brand new lol so I decided to step down my pedestal and test the waters with this sexy vw Passat that happened to be a bit older. And dang. I was astonished. I was approved and my monthly was actually reasonable. So not only did they approve me on a sweet deal they gave me some cash for my trade in. I think I spent a total of like 2 hours there, mainly because of my picky ass but it was awesome. The reps definitely work with you and are very kind and knowledgeable. I love my vehicle. But should you return it for whatever reason then cool. They got a 3 day return policy no questions asked and they have a 6 month warranty on their vehicles. Plus they have an affordable service center there as well.
