I bought a 2013 Porsche 911 with 7 speed manual last week from Response Motors -- from Yanni and Nikki Suzuki there. My Porsche garage's mechanics know them and vouched for them, and that was a major factor in my trusting Yanni and Nikki. I've been going to this Sunnyvale garage for 25+ years and they are excellent. Throughout the process Yanni and Nikki were professional, prompt, responsive, and attentive. They performed a thorough inspection of the car and provided those reports. They discussed the car and the 991 generation's advantages and disadvantages, including comparing and contrasting the 991 generation with the 997 and 992 generations. Yanni knows his 911s pretty well and his generation insights were helpful. Since last week I've driven my 911 over 1,700 miles. The car runs great. My mechanic inspected the car yesterday and said it is in great condition. I love this car and my wife and I are really enjoying it. If you are looking for a good quality late model Porsche or sports car go see Yanni and Nikki in Mountain View and take a look at what they have. They'll take good care of you. Thank you Yanni and Nikki, you guys are great and we'll be enjoying miles and miles of 991 motoring from you! read more

i had a very bad experience . i went to see a 911 and the sales person was very hesitant to show me the car. He even signaled another guy to stand 10 feet away from me. I guess being a brown skin is not popular. i said thanks for the time and stopped at Rector Porsche on my way home and bought a new one. read more

Ryan and team made selling my 718 Cayman a pain-free & effortless experience. Car sold within the timeframe Yanni projected and at a price I was very happy with. Would work with them again. read more

Responsive team at response motors! Looking at a car from across the country can be nerve racking, Yanni got me everything I needed to feel assured and comfortable on a great Porsche 911. Honest and fair, thanks team!! read more

These people are bizarre. I inquired about a car two weeks ago, the sales guy gave me his number, and then they refused to answer any basic questions about the vehicle that is supposedly for sale. When you're inquiring about a $200k vehicle it's not unreasonable to ask for some extremely basic things to be answered, like is the car able to be titled? Weird behavior from people who are supposed to sell cars for a living. read more

Nick is refreshingly humble and easy to work with when it comes to Indie mechanics specialized in European cars. They work on exotics of all kinds so a relatively 'normal' car is in excellent hands. Their rates are better than some other independent shops. Their waiting lounge is also their used car showroom that always has a delightful collection of Porsches to give you company along with WiFi so that's a nice bonus! read more

This review is based on my experience working with Nick the mechanic at Response. I brought my Porsche 992 to the shop on August 2024 to install the sport design bumper and a ducktail from Moshammer. Both the ducktail spoiler and bumper were installed, which required using PIWIS 3 to input code for the modification. Nick put so much effort that lasted weeks to months but yielded no success. Initially went to Response because they appeared capable of working on 911's. I was mistaken I asked Nick to bring the vehicle back to OEM spec this past Thanksgiving.(as of today, I still don't have my car back) The communication with Nick to obtain status on my car was sporadic and unpredictable. The hurtful part about this was seeing my car park in the yard at the back exposed to all the elements. (Didn't feel like they cared for the car.) I also didn't appreciate Nick's dishonesty and deceitful behavior when I asked for status updates. As a service customer POV, Response Motors failed to uphold their fiduciary responsibility. These cars are special. We work hard to obtain it. As a car enthusiast I had a terrible year due to this experience. I can't wait to get back on the road. ***Graham, please help! read more

Service department review After purchasing my vehicle from response motors, the Sales Manager & myself agreed that the dealership would fix the broken taillight & the faulty window motor found during inspection. Additionally, at my cost, I request them to program the spoiler to not deploy. 1st Visit - Came in on 12:30pm on a Tuesday & met the mechanic, who stated he was the service department co-owner. I went over what I wanted done & the service owner confirmed it would take a few hours. I agreed to the service & sat in the dealership lobby waiting for 4 hours. At 4:30 met with the service owner, and he regret to inform me the car taillight wasn't fixed because I needed a new harness & can't do the ducktail programming until that was resolved. The service owner however said he was able to fix the window motor. The service owner suggested to come next week, leave the car overnight. I agreed & arranged to return the following Monday. 2nd visit: Before returning back that Monday to Response Motors, I found out immediately that the window issue was NEVER fixed & two loose screws were found near the spoiler assembly. I flagged these issues to the service owner and he assured me he would fix everything & the window. 3rd visit: I returned Tuesday morning after my wife agreed to drive me 45 mins down. The service owner confirmed everything was fixed, OTHER than the window motor as it was more expensive than what the service owner expected. I thought the dealership was paying for it since the sales manager agreed to it. Whatever, as long as everything else was fixed, I'll be okay. As I was about to drive away after paying, my dashboard was lit up with multiple errors: Spoiler button didn't fiction, Engine cover didn't work, Passenger window didn't work, Left, right & plate taillight failure & All moonroof functions didn't work I immediately flagged these to the service owner. The service owner was apologetic & suggested I leave it for one more night & stated he would take care of it for free. I really didn't want to leave it but I couldn't afford an outside repair shop so I left it. 4th visit: I got a text the next day from the service owner stating the car was ready & he checked EVERYTHING. I asked my buddies for a ride 45 mins down south once again. Once I arrived, I was immediately greeted with the moonroof still not working & the first repair I requested, the taillight, wasn't even fix. The service owner panicked & grabbed his tools & started trying to fix things. I waited there for additional 3 hours while the service owner tried to fix my car. The service owner managed to fix the taillight but not the moonroof, this was at the cost of the reprogramming my ducktail. I asked The service owner to refund me, he apologized & I left the dealership defeated with a damaged car at 9pm. Conclusion: Car is now being fixed by OEM manufacturer. They are fixing the damaged & reporting findings to my lawyer Graham Doorley (Dealership owner), if you ever wanted to talk, I'm sure the team at resmo can provide my number. read more

In late 2022, I bought a 2006 Lamborghini Gallardo from Response Motors. I've purchased exotics from other independent dealers but this was my first time working with ResMo and I have to say it was a very pleasant experience. Unlike other independent dealerships, ResMo has an eclectic selection of rare vehicles. Case in point, my Gallardo SE was 1 of only 3 "gated" 6 speed manuals for sale in the US at the time. The ResMo staff are also car enthusiasts who are friendly, knowledgeable and yes, responsive. I worked with Yanni in Sales. Via text, phone & email, Yanni kept me current through the whole buying process. He even came in on Sundays (his usual day off) to meet me at the dealership. Alex, the Sales Manager is an industry veteran and has a wealth of knowledge. Fast forward to July '23 after a weekend of spirited driving the clutch went out (at least that's what I thought). ResMo also offers Service but I was hesitant as these are specialty vehicles. With a Lamborghini in the Bay Area your options are limited to paying a hefty premium through a dealer or waiting, in some cases months, for an independent Lamborghini mechanic to get you in. If you have stable of sports cars that may be okay but I keep just one exotic at a time & didn't want to wait. I had the car shipped to ResMo and after inspection the diagnosis was the clutch itself was fine. There was air in the hydraulic fluid which they swapped out & test drove a few times and that solved the problem. While they had my car in their possession, Melissa, Service Manager, kept me well informed using a innovative software platform that sends you text & email updates as well as the ability to authorize & pay for services from your phone or computer. At no charge the ResMo service team did a thorough inspection of everything else to make sure all is in good working order, including topping off fluids, checking tire pressure, etc. I'd braced myself for what I thought would be a large bill and was pleasantly surprised that it was a small fraction of that. Phew! Yesterday, when I went to pick up the car, it was so clean that it looked brand new! Someone had given it a thorough bath and minor detailing? --also "no charge" But before taking my car home I went to the shop in the back of the building to thank Nick, their lead mechanic. There I found Graham, the owner and all around great guy, working on a pet project GT3 - see story here: https://responsemotors.com/a-ruby-star-is-reborn/ Nick received a firm handshake and a 12 pack of Kona Beer for his excellent work! ResMo has made an outstanding first impression. They will continue to service my Gallardo and I'm confident my next purchase will be through ResMo. Yanni is already searching for my dream F355! read more

I purchased a 996TT from Response Motors (Graham) over a year ago and this company is top notch. There was absolutely no pressure and closing out the deal (and all the paperwork) was easy and quick. Prices are also fair. I've since brought the car in for maintenance and upgrades. The Response Motors Service team (Melissa and Nick) installed an aftermarket wing (with paint match), a couple of go fast goodies and everything is working as expected and looks great. They kept me in the loop throughout the upgrade process/maintenance. Thanks RESMO! read more

This place is a breath of fresh air. The cars are really in fantastic condition and the people selling them are true enthusiast of specialty cars. Really knowledgeable and friendly. One more time I want to emphasize on the amount of effort on selecting great quality pre owned cars and then putting huge effort in making them truly amazing pre-owned cars. Went to local Porsche dealership to look at certified pre owned 911s and they looked very very neglected in compare to cars on this small pre owned lot. read more

Yanni was awesome to work with. I have always had a zippy Benz. Yanni sold me my first Porche. I love my 997.2. Thanks for such a great experience read more

Yanni and Alex are the best! Got me into a 997 Manual with no headaches an a very straightforward purchase and inspection experience. Nick is also awesome on the repair side and I would trust him with any car regardless of make or vintage! read more

I got a Porsche 911 from this place. It's my dream car. So glad I could finally get one! I can check it off my bucket list. Yanni helped me and he couldn't have been more pleasant to work with. No pressure. He just answered questions we had. They have a garage where they made sure it was good to go before selling it. (It was pre-owned. ) I'm LOVING this car! Great experience, great staff, and most importantly, GREAT CAR! read more

I found the dream car I didn't even know existed - Cayman R in dark blue with a 6-speed! Graham and company run a top-notch business. Everything in their showroom is amazing. Had the best first drive ever going back down Hwy 1 to San Diego after picking up the car! read more

Yonni made my experience incredibly informative, clearly explaining every detail I was curious about. The selection of cars was impressive, providing a wide variety of options to consider. Additionally, the staff's knowledge was evident, contributing to a seamless and enlightening visit. Overall, I was very impressed with both the service and the inventory. Update: I ended up purchasing a vehicle along with an extended warranty. I highly recommend Resmo for anyone in the market for a sports car. read more

I purchased my 911 from Alex and Yanni and the experience was fantastic. I started my search looking for a different model and fell in love with a 997 Turbo they had on the showroom floor.. the rest was history. If you are looking for your first or tenth Porsche/Performance car, give them a call and visit their website. They have an amazing selection of 911's with 20-30 to choose from and plenty of rare models. The showroom is clean and well laid out as well. Lastly, they treat you like old friends... no nonsense, no back and forth, not BS. Cars are clean and well serviced - they are very transparent about condition and history. I am so glad I stumbled across their dealership. I can't recommend them enough for a great value and a beautiful 911. They also have a service department in house and a detail shop so they take care of ALL your needs under one roof. Great guys and great experience. I love my new dream car! read more

Response Motors live by a great motto, if it's not fun to drive, they don't sell it. Give them a visit if you are having mid life crisis, made it in Silicon Valley or just a regular Jane who loves cars. I got my 997 here and my experience has been great. Graham will goes extra mile to help you. read more

Purchased a 2005 997.1 S from Graham back in August. Best decision I made in 2019. The car only had ~60k on the clock and was immaculate inside and out. Graham took the time really check over the car and his engineering expertise allows you to really purchase with confidence that the cars he sells don't have frame damage or other sub-system component damage and are ready to go. He won't sell you something he wouldn't drive himself and the quality of the vehicles he offers shows that. He assisted with a few maintenance items as well on the 911 about 6 months post-purchase and I'm very pleased with the quality of the work and the effort they spent chasing a couple little things that were difficult to track down. His mechanic, detailer, and the rest of his staff are fantastic. These guys love what they do and just speaking with Graham for a few minutes you know he's a serious gear head who knows his stuff. This is the guy you want to work with if you're in the search for a well sorted Porsche (or other sports car, as he frequently has some non-P-cars in stock). read more

I have bought and sold cars with Yanni at Response Motors. They have great cars at fair prices!

I recently purchased a 2009 Porsche 911 S from Graham. The experience was excellent and I was extremely happy with the results. As others have noted, when you are dealing with Graham, you're not dealing with a car salesman - you're dealing with a car aficionado. I had been looking at cars that Response Motors had for a bit. Graham understood what I was looking for and when he acquired a matching car he contacted me. The car itself was perfectly prepped. Graham was very flexible with showing me the car and with getting it in for a PPI. When I decided to buy, I was in and out within an hour. I would highly recommend Response Motors to anyone looking for a high-end performance car. read more

I purchased a BMW M5 from Graham sight unseen and shipped it across the country. Graham was extremely helpful throughout the buying process, he took walk around videos, startup videos, additional pictures, you name it.... Buying a car out of state sight unseen is always a concern, but from my experience I would happily recommend Response Motors to my friends and family. read more

Response Motors - BMW M5 - Car Dealers Near Me - Mountain View, California

Recently purchased a 2005 911S cabriolet from Response Motors. Amazing buying experience in every respect. They performed a complete paint restoration and interior/engine detailing so that the car looked showroom new. Before the delivery, Graham performed a full service, replaced tires (without me asking) and belts and pulleys after he heard a very faint pulley squeek which I couldn't even hear. He also ordered (and paid for) a spare key from a local dealership, again without me asking for this. The car was priced very well, no exaggerated asking price with the expectation that there would be an uncomfortable haggling exercise. Graham buys carefully, does his homework and know what the cars are worth. Graham also addressed a mechanical issue after the sale without hesitation. He performed the repairs at no cost even though no warranty was implied after the purchase. He has great integrity and stands behind the cars he sells and the services he provides. He also operates a full-service detail shop and repair service with a Porsche-certified mechanic. Graham is a pleasure to work with; very honest and engaging. He really knows cars, especially Porsches. I highly recommend Graham and Response Motors if you are looking for an enthusiast-packaged 996, 997 or later model 911. read more

I recently purchased a 2013 Porsche 911 from Graham at Response. This was one of the best car buying experiences I've had. They are open during the evenings which works with my schedule. Graham has a lot of passion for all the vehicles that come through his doors, explaining their history and unique details. After the purchase, we needed to repair some screw holes in the bumper caused by the front license plate. Response removed the bumper and coordinated this work with a nearby bodyshop at no charge. Top notch service! Highly recommend for buying/selling beautiful vehicles. read more

At Response Motors, you get more than your dream car at the most reasonable price point possible. You also get an incredible customer service experience that you remember every time you put your keys in the ignition. Graham sold my parents a beautiful black Lexus that looks and drives like new. He even made sure that it got a brand new battery and was polished and immaculate right before they picked up the car. It was amazing to see how happy they were, not just with the car but with the time and attention they received. Unlike other used car dealers, Graham is a successful mechanical engineer at a nearby tech company who races cars as a hobby. He runs Response Motors simply because he is a true gearhead, and he is passionate about the process of finding rare, high-end used cars and transforming them into like-new condition. He is a perfectionist, so every car he sells must meet his rigorous standards. You have his personal guarantee for any car you buy from him. These standards hold for any servicing and maintenance packages you buy from him as well. You will never feel like you are being pushed into buying a car. Graham wants you to love your car as much as he does. Furthermore, his vast fund of knowledge about all kinds of cars is impressive, and clients enjoy picking his brain during their appointments with him. His clients drive to his shop from Sacramento and LA routinely because of the quality of his work. These days, it is increasingly rare to find such a personal customer service experience. Response Motors truly is a gem. Do yourself a favor-- if you are looking for a high-end used car that will seem like new, or are looking for top-notch servicing for a car that you already own, look no further than Response Motors. read more

Don't know if they are any good at car sales, but low integrity when it comes to buying cars. Supposedly had a deal and everytime they reached out they lowered offer price. Foolishly, I waited on them and lost a buyer who ended up buying something else... rather lose money than sell to them my 911, now. read more

Hands down the best auto purchase experience I have ever had. The 2003 Boxster S that I purchased had a thorough history at Response Motors and was meticulously sorted out for a bang on price. I look forward to continuing maintenance and service with the ResMo crew! read more

I recently purchased a 996 C4S from Response Motors. Initially, I sent an email requesting more information about the car and I promptly received a huge jacket of information along with a slew of highly detailed photographs. After reviewing the documentation and telephoning Graham, we were able to work a sight unseen deal. Every piece of information the Graham provided was accurate and I ended up with the nicest 996 I've ever seen. I would have zero reservations buying from Response Motors again! Great product and customer support. read more

We had a phenomenal experience buying our car from Graham at Response Motors. First, the advertisement was well detailed with carfax, full spec sheet and great pictures. Browsing through the cars in the inventory, all the cars had similar high quality postings. He even provided high res pictures of the car that helped close scrutiny of the car. Second, It was clear that all the cars in his inventory were well curated as if geared to an enthusiast and not like the hodgepodge selection that you find at independent dealers. The Porsche I looked at was better than some of the 'certified cars' at authorized dealers. Third, as a picky buyer and one buying remotely, I had a lot of questions and these were answered quickly, accurately and honestly. At some so called authorized dealers that I have bought from in the past, they knew far less about the car than I did which is never a good sign. This was certainly not the case here. Fourth, the car I bought was competitively priced and so the negotiation and finalization of terms was a very quick process. He even threw in a service to keep the car's service record current. All in all a great experience that made me confident enough to buy the car sight unseen. Highly recommend buying from Response Motors and Graham if you want a great quality, premium car and a hassle free experience. read more

Graham and the Response Motors team have excellent customer service skills and are truly passionate about the cars they sell and work on. I am beyond satisfied with their patience and the time they give out of their day to answer any and all of my questions to ensure that I am a satisfied customer. Thank you guys for your enthusiasm for sports cars and fantastic service! read more

I live in DALLAS and had been looking for a RS60 for a while now. Given they're a limited edition Boxter, it's hard to find the right car locally, so when I came across this beauty online at Response Motors I decided to look into it. Graham responded to my inquiry quickly and thoroughly. Still, I didn't think I'd make a purchase like this sight unseen, but I did and very happy I did so! I just can't say enough good things about thus company and Graham in particular! He's honest and very fair to deal with. He not only sold the car at a fair price, but arranged for delivery and extended warranty at very reasonable costs. I've had the car for a month now and thoroughly enjoying it! It arrived on time and as advertised. It looks and drives like it just rolled off the assembly line! I would not hesitate to buy my next Porsche from Response Motors and would recommend them to anyone in the country! read more

Graham is a true car enthusiast, not a salesman. He works as an engineer and does this on the side because he loves cars. I found a 2007 cayman for sale online and it looked like it was in very good shape. After exchanging a few emails with Graham, I decided I wanted to test the car out. I drove all the way from LA to check the car out, and it was totally worth it. Every car he sells is in amazing condition, they all look like brand new cars. I ended up buying the car for a very reasonable price, and Graham fixed some small details before shipping the car to LA. For anyone looking to buy a used sports car, I would strongly recommend checking out response motors! read more

I just bought a vehicle from Graham and am absolutely thrilled with the car and the overall experience. Graham's passion for performance cars shows and my interactions with him were incredibly refreshing after spending a month or so shopping around. The detailing job was impeccable and the car looks and feels brand new. The handoff + transfer of ownership was super streamlined and took less than half an hour. I would highly recommend Response Motors to anyone in the market for one of their cars. read more

By far my best car-buying experience in 40 years. Fair, transparent price. No awkward back&forth with the "secret boss". People here really care about building a long-term relationship with their customers since they cater to a special crowd. Yanni was my sale's guy, nice, friendly, and honest, didn't try to sell me stuff that I don't need. I will be taking my cars here for service in the future. read more

Purchased a 2007 Porsche Carrera S from Graham in early February. Most of the transaction took place by phone/email since I live in the Los Angeles area. Communication was fluid and confidence inspiring. I sent a deposit on a Friday, one short flight and 2 train rides later I was there to see the car in person. It was exactly as described and all the paperwork was signed within 20 minutes. I am a very satisfied customer and will keep an eye on his inventory of vehicles on a regular basis to refer my friends and colleagues. read more

I was referred to Response Motors by a customer on rennlist. We've had been searching for a 997S cabriolet with a manual in gray me for six months. Contacted dealer up and down the west coast. We even missed out on two cars at Response Motors because the sold before we had a chance. Graham, the owner, remembered us and the car we wanted. He contacted us a month later when the "Exact" car we wanted came in. We almost settled but Graham came through. The car was inspected with all issues resolved plus the car was serviced and impeccably prepared for delivery. We Love our 08 997s Cab. If you are looking for a Porsche this is the place! read more

Phenomenal experience buying my Alfa Romeo QV from Graham. He went above and beyond ensuring I am truly satisfied with my purchase. Like others have said multiple times, he is a car enthusiast and knows his stuff. Not a salesman trying to push a sale. Extremely honest in stating known issues with the car. Even helped dealing with the dealership on a warrantee claim after purchasing. Extremely satisfied. Will definitely return if I were to purchase something else in the future. read more

I sold my car here and had a great experience. Graham offered a good price and we were done in less than a couple hours! Thanks!

APPEARANCE DISCRIMINATION. Have you heard "Don't judge a book by its cover"? You might think your 964 is rare at $60k but that is nothing compared to what Porsche enthusiasts drive. And are after. Not allowing customer's request to feel the clutch while idling is a bit too much. You could have sold it right there but we will not drop a penny with that kind of profiling. You are in the Bay Area, grow up! read more
