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
Great Place to buy a car. Chris and Isaac were very helpful especially with all the things I had to do before getting the SUV. I like it very much and the 6 month warranty is great! THANKS SO MUCH!!
Want to start off by thanking Sam Noman, he was very helpful throughout this process and very kind to make sure we were comfortable in our 104° shopping experience. About me financially, had an inside down trade-in, had little to nothing of down payment and my credit is not in great shape but I was able to drive off in a 'new' to me Subaru Crosstrek. Very excited for my journey in this new car and thank Sam and the Sales Manager for their help to make the numbers right.Not pushy at all and they had the car up and ready for me to check out upon arrival. Drove all the way from Corona and they did not make me regret it one bit. Definitely will be back or recommend friends and family here as their prices are fair if not better than compared to market value.
So far the best dealer I been to, people are so nice and friendly .they didn’t make me feel uncomfortable or pressured to buy anything .love the customer service .i end up buying the car I wanted for a while but Nellie , Alfredo and Isaac made it easier . Thanks for everything !!!! By the way did I mentioned they payed for my Uber because I live an hour away from the dealer ?
My Husband and I purchased an amazing Mercedes Benz CLA 45 AMG this week, not only do we love it but the process was so simple and quick. Raquel was very helpful over the phone and when we got there Reese took great care of the rest. Awesome customer service and definitely worth the long drive there. Everything was so easy unlike the usual dealership experience. The financial coordinator was very proffesional and all of the paperwork was a breeze. Overall everyone was great and we left extremely happy!
Whet in today with a mission to sell my old truck for a brand new used one. After settling on a price with Driveo (which by the way offered me more than I thought I was going to get for my old truck) they handed my Search over to Chris Samuels with auto city. After answering all my questions about the truck I had my eye on (Dodge Ram 1500 Express.) I did notice that there was a fairly large crack in the front window, but Chris assured me that they will replace it free of charge, and will contact me to come in when the part arrives. Chris let me take it for a test run by myself, so I would be more comfortable driving. Let me tell you, this War Pony can run. After getting back, we agreed on a final price, did the final paperwork, my bank issued them a check, and I was off to the races. Couldn't be happier with my buy, (hopefully nothing Major happens and I will have the truck for years to come.) I think I shall name my new truck "Wolf Dave Kitty Bark."
