Fast5xpress is a chain and available everywhere. This one is located in an auto care plaza. It is convenient to quickly get my car washed and vacuumed. Jiffylube is right next door too. I had to dock a star because the spinning towel never reaches my car to dry.

There were different categories of car washes that vary in price and included different offerings. They also have memberships that allow unlimited car washes at any of their 20 locations in the Southern California area. There were multiple lines that you can enter under different signs. One sign was labeled "credit cards only" and another was labeled "all customers". The latter line also had a human operator in case you wanted to talk to someone or get change. I usually choose the bronze car wash ($10) which just includes the car wash, spot free rinse, and free vacuums. After payment, drive to the front of the entrance where a worker guides you to align your car with the tracks. Then follow the signs to the left of the entrance and go through the wash. The wash was quick and was pretty effective in only a couple minutes. It'll never be at the same level of cleanliness as a hand wash but this is a convenient option that is relatively affordable. The free vacuums after the wash are nice to clean your car some more.

Multiple lanes, but gets very crowded at peak times. This was probably the most crowded we've ever seen for a car wash. The lines took forever and were getting so long that it was getting difficult for cars to get through to the other side of the plaza. They obviously can't do anything about it, but they should definitely have cones or some time of barrier to help organize the lines better. * Bronze Wash: 8/10 - good and effective It was also dark when we went yet the lights for vacuuming still didn't go on which made it difficult to vacuum. The machine for members was also not working, but the worker was very helpful and nice. Will definitely stop by again at a different time.

People standing around being lazy.

Service is slow, usually people standing around the booth, one guy just sprays one side of your vehicle to a bare minimum. With all the people working you think things would go by quicker.

Honestly, I usually opt for a hand car wash but since we were just trying to get a little rinse after the unexpected rainy day yesterday we tried this spot down the street from us. When you arrive, there's three lanes to choose from: a members only lane, credit card/self serve lane, and a lane for all other customers. After perusing the options, we decided on the Silver Wash which was still a bargain at $13 compared to our typical hand wash spot. The cashier was friendly and efficient. It was a busy morning but he did a great job controlling the flow of traffic and making sure each lane was entering the wash at the right time. The wash itself takes less than 2 minutes I'd say. It's super easy figuring out entry and exit with the lights and signage. And when you finish, you can easily pull into one of the slanted spots to finish up with a vacuum. Overall, it's a pretty decent wash for a drive through! Will be back.

Prices have gone up way to high, $18 for a drive through car wash insane. Now it just feels like a money grab.

Ask the Community - Fast5Xpress Car Wash

Is this safe to use for teslas?

Steering wheel use recommended, just not too heavy on the turning, & for most passengers to be awake for safe n sane operation of our car wash. Thank you!! 🙌🏻🙌🏻👐🏼

This is the best car wash to ever go to?

No. Scratched my rim and they don't admit

Great car wash?

Yes

Safe for soft top convertible roof?

Very helpful. Great service and fantastic staff

Is this a touch less car wash with their tunnel?

Not really. If their credit card lane is open and working, then the only touch is when you tap on the screen. The other lanes require interaction with the attendant.… Read more

Are there any huge differences between bronze wash and silver one? Should I just do bronze or silver? (This is my first time here;; and I don't know which one will be better.. is there big difference?)

They list what's included in each wash side by side. The more you pay, the more is included, BUT there's not much difference because it's not a hand wash and your car will not be really clean no matter which service you buy.… Read more

Can the Member Pass be used at any location (i.e. sign up in Irvine but use occasionally at Costa Mesa or another location)?

Yes, you can use the pass at both locations

Which option is best for driving a lot?

The best opinion in my own experience has to be the platinum. I know it sound pricey but it really cleans the car good

Does this car wash shop offer a cleaning without machine (I.e. sponge/hand wash?)

No, automated wash only. But there's a parking area after the wash with vacuum stations so you can vacuum your car (complimentary)

They give you a dashboard wipe and trash bag with all the washes and with some you also get the air freshener.

I rarely take my cars to get a car wash since I prefer to do it myself. However, when I do decide…read moreto let someone else do the job, I only go to Ultimate Custom Car Care. It has been over a decade since I've been coming to this place for my car washes and ceramic coating. They do a solid job and the prices are good for the quality you get. Everyone here is friendly and efficient. Steve, the owner, is great to work with and used to man the front of the house here. However, I've noticed that he's not always here and he has someone else taking care of the phone calls and checking in. All in all, great service from everyone. Prices are up-to-date on their website, which I appreciate. They have a really small area to park your car into their garage for the wash, so be mindful of the limited space when you come during busy times.

My girlfriend comes here regularly to get her car cleaned, and since I hadn't had mine…read moreprofessionally cleaned in a couple of years, I was actually really excited to try it out. First thing to note--this place is easy to miss. I embarrassingly drove right past the entrance the first time because it's a pretty small opening and hard to spot if you're going even a little fast. Had to loop around the block and try again. Also, there's only space for about two cars to queue before you're basically spilling into the street. My girlfriend and I parked one behind the other, and honestly, another car behind us would've been halfway in the road. There is street parking nearby though if their little alcove is full. When we pulled in, there was a ton of activity--cars constantly moving through, getting cleaned, etc.--so it's clearly a popular spot. My girlfriend mentioned there have been times she's come and had to leave because the line was backed up into the street, so I think we got pretty lucky timing-wise. Price-wise, I think it's solid. For an exterior wash + interior clean, it felt reasonable. Since we came together, I think they held our cars to finish around the same time, so it ended up taking about 1-1.5 hours. Honestly not bad, especially since there are a bunch of cafes and restaurants within walking distance if you want to kill time. They also have a really nice waiting area--I even saw someone working on their laptop, so I'm guessing they might have Wi-Fi too. Now... my one big issue. They threw away my parking sticker. You know those apartment gate stickers that automatically open the gate? I had mine on my dashboard (still on the original backing because I sometimes lend it to friends who watch my cats). I get that it might not have been in the usual spot, but it very clearly wasn't trash. What made it more confusing is that they didn't even fully clear out small trash in my car--there were still a couple random paper/sticker backing pieces left behind, so it's not like they were just tossing everything indiscriminately. Also, for context--my car was clean going in. I don't keep stuff in my car beyond a reusable grocery bag or my tennis bag sometimes, and this was one of the rare times I even had a little bit of trash. So I don't think this was a situation where my car was cluttered and something got accidentally swept up in a bigger cleanup. That part was honestly frustrating. Overall, I would come back because they did a good job cleaning the car and the price is fair--but I'd definitely make sure to remove anything remotely important beforehand so there's no confusion next time.

Unique Car Wash & Auto Detailing - Had both trucks detailed. They both came out perfect and Vic the owner was very helpful and great to work with.

They pointed out some paint scuffs I hadn't really thought about and offered to fix them at a much better price than a body shop would've charged. They also took care of my cloudy headlights, which made a huge difference. My biggest concern was the interior (years of built-up stains from daily driving), and they were able to get them out way better than I expected. While they worked on the car, I just walked over to a nearby coffee shop, which made the whole process super easy. Overall, really happy with the results. Great service, fair pricing, and just a down-to-earth team. They even offered a free wash if it rains, which is a nice touch. Would definitely come back!

From the moment I pulled in, the team was friendly, professional, and genuinely passionate about what they do. First off, the attention to detail is unreal. I thought my car was "pretty clean" before -- I was wrong. They made it look BETTER than the day I drove it off the lot. The paint was glossy and smooth, the wheels were spotless, and somehow they even got rid of little interior stains I had completely given up on. Every surface inside felt fresh and restored without that overpowering chemical smell some places leave behind. What really stood out was how thorough they were. They didn't rush the job. They treated my car like it was their own -- carefully, meticulously, and with real pride. You can tell this isn't just a quick in-and-out wash spot; this is true detailing. Customer service was also top-tier. They explained the services clearly, didn't try to upsell me on anything unnecessary, and made the whole process smooth and stress-free. Pricing felt more than fair for the level of quality and care they provide. If you're in Costa Mesa (or honestly anywhere nearby), do yourself a favor and bring your car here. Whether you need a quick refresh or a full detail transformation, this is the place. My car has never looked this good -- and I'll absolutely be back.

Orange Hand Car Wash is still the best hand wash I've been able to find in the area. Though I will…read moresay, the prices have gone way up and I don't come as often as I used to. It's just too expensive. However if you can afford it, as the name indicates, everything here is done by hand. This is important when it comes to car washes, as the process allows for greater attention to detail and an overall superior result. Mechanical car washes tend to be indiscriminate and rough. Plus if you have a really expensive car you would not want it getting messed up by a machine and this is the solution to that issue. If you have specialty paint, or your vehicle is unusual in some way, this is also a good option. I've seen all sorts of different cars here from huge trucks to lowered vehicles. They offer the full range of standard car wash services from basic car washes, to detailing and waxing, to headlight restoration. They also have a ceramic coating treatment which I have been considering.

I specifically asked for no interior dressing, yet the inside is so greasy it looks worse than before. The dashboard and surfaces are slick like a teenager's forehead. The exterior isn't any better. The roof is covered in streaks, and there's an entire section of the car that looks like it was barely touched. For the price charged, this level of work is honestly unacceptable. Please do better. If you're charging premium prices, the results should actually reflect it.
