The car was spotless. Kovacs Motors had detailed service records on the car and were very helpful! The technician who drove the car from auction to Sonoma provided us information on the remaining battery range for the car. We are thrilled with our purchase! Note: We were at CARMAX earlier in the day looking at the same model car. The salesman there was not nearly as knowledgeable about the car.

I wish there was more transparency on the issues the vehicle has had since after all buying from a dealership is more trustworthy than from a private seller. Here's a list of issues I've encountered after the first 6-months: worn-out struts, outer trim of the vehicle is worn out and barely held together, discovered unloosened and missing bolts in the A-pillar, undisclosed oil leak from the engine, and welded-on catalytic converter which cost me extra to remove and replace. I usually give local businesses and have been refraining to post this yet appearances from this business left me deceived unfortunately.

I hate car dealers, I really really despise them and have literally walked away from buying $20-30k…read morecars simply because I couldn't bring myself to buy a car from a salesperson who was such a low-life. I mostly wanted to stay away from San Jose because I had phone and email conversations with some of the Subaru dealers up there and that alone was enough to know not to give them my business. I kept seeing a few nice looking Subaru's online, and although the dealership was about 2 hours away decided it was worth looking at since they had the exact car we were looking for. I checked Yelp to make sure the dealership didn't have 2 stars like some did. Nope, perfect ratings. I called up and was hoping to get Bob on the phone since so many people mentioned him in their reviews and sure enough Bob answered. Little did I know that Bob and Ginger were the only two people there. Bob was so good on the phone and just exuded honesty that I knew we had to go up there and buy the car if it drove like the rest of them. I love the idea of not haggling over a price...it's all really stupid and I just wish every dealer would give you a price that you pay, not one that's inflated for no reason. We drove up and took a few test rides with Ginger. She is great and helpful as well. Then we met with Bob who helped us sort out the paperwork, actually SAVED us another 2 hour trip back up since we had pre-arranged financing from a bank, encouraged us to use our existing financing rather than what he had because we already had it. We drove out of there with the car same day and I'm still glowing about how good of an experience it was, I really am. Can't say enough about Family Motors. The cars they sell are really the ideal used cars too because Bob seems to only buy really pristine condition, late models, with low miles and their detailing on them makes them look brand new. If family motors has a car that you know you want or you're just interested in used Subaru's or Saabs you really deserve to buy a car from someone who has tact and is friendly. We ended up saying goodbye after discussing non-profits and volunteering with Bob...that's not a typical used car buying experience to be sure.

I've never bought a used car before, so to say that I approached this experience with trepidation…read morewould be an understatement. I was referred to Family Motors by my trusted mechanics at Embarcadero Automotive in SF, because they didn't have what I was looking for, and couldn't get one at that point. I'd recently been in a bad accident with my trusty 10 year old Saab 9-5 wagon, was in a lot of pain, and wasn't interested in dickering around, exploring other options, or even thinking about trying to get used to a completely new make of car - I just wanted another one of the same thing with no hassle. I didn't see any reason to argue with the engineering excellence that had just saved my life. You don't always get to just pick the used car you want off a tree, though, which is part of why I've never bought one. As others have said, the whole experience was a complete pleasure. I called Bob when I saw a car that interested me on his website, and a few short hours later, after going up for a test drive, it was mine. I absolutely could not believe I'd found a 4 year old car with only 21,500 miles that was still in factory warranty, and obviously in absolutely cherry condition, with a clean Carfax, etc. - or a used car dealer who was actually a really nice guy who genuinely wanted to be sure I got the right car and wasn't the slightest bit pushy, especially on my very first experience with this sort of purchase. It actually turned out that Bob and I have some mutual friends, too, so that was fun. But I felt totally taken care of, and he even knocked an extra $600 off the price without my even asking. I still can't believe that I scored such a good car, and practically brand new, for such a low price, and that the whole experience was so easy. It's also obvious that he takes great care of clients, because the place is tucked away in a field, invisible from the street, so you'd have to know it's there and be looking hard to even find it. There's no way he can be getting the walk-in business that your average car dealer gets, so you know it *has* to be all word of mouth. Which indeed it is. Driving in is a bit of a surreal experience, because it's like you're going to someone's private farm, turning down a dirt road, going along the fence of a field - and then suddenly the vista opens up, not to fields full of growing things, but to a field of shiny, spotlessly clean, mint condition Saabs and Subarus. This is, indeed, what buying a new car ought to be like. If Bob's still carrying Saabs when I'm ready for my next one (and indeed if they're still even being built), I'll go right back up to him and get the next one there, too. BTW, if Bob doesn't have what you're looking for in stock, he'll go out and search one down for you, still with the same requirements of being low mileage, cherry lease returns.

Buying a classic car can sometimes be a very difficult process. It's dealing with the fear of the…read moreunknown, a limited history, and difficulty trying to determine true value of the car. Not at Left Coast Classics. Donn Dabney is one of finest marketers of classic cars I have ever had the pleasure to work with. His cars are well prepared, his website and pictures are second to none, and his pricing is fair and honest. I purchased a 1946 Mercury Eight Town Sedan from Donn this month. I made the trip from Reno to Sonoma to inspect the car with a friend who had extensive knowledge of Post War Fords and Mercurys. Donn gave us the time and space to evaluate the car, took a test drive in the beautiful Sonoma countryside, then returned to his business to discuss the deal. I felt like Donn treated me like a friend rather than a customer while still looking out for his client's interests. I will say that we faced some challenges completing the sale that were in no way due to issues with this company. That's not uncommon with some classic car purchases. But Donn and I were both determined to get this sale completed. With a little extra effort we pushed past the obstacles and made everyone happy in the process. I can't tell you how pleased I am to have found such an honest and trustworthy company to do business with. I would buy again from Donn's Left Coast Classics in a heartbeat. If you're in the market for a one of a kind classic car, don't hesitate to give Donn a call. You won't be disappointed.

My wife and I recently purchased a classic car from Donn, and the entire experience exceeded every…read moreexpectation we had. We had never purchased a car remotely before, so we were a little apprehensive, but from start to finish, the process was seamless, transparent, and incredibly professional. The car was exactly as described online -- actually, even better in person. Every detail was accurately represented, from the body condition to the interior and mechanical performance. It's clear Donn truly understands and respects classic automobiles. The care, knowledge, and passion he has for these cars really shows. Communication was outstanding throughout the entire transaction. Every question we had was answered promptly and thoroughly, and he made sure we felt completely comfortable before moving forward. Donn was never pushy and we never felt rushed thru any part of the process. We originally looked at some shipping options on our own but ended up relying on Donn's recommendation, which turned out to be the right decision. Shipping ended up being as smooth as the purchase process and the pick-up and delivery was quicker than I had expected (they actually delivered it a day early due to my conflict) and it was in pristine condition. With me being in Texas, Donn coordinated the entire pick-up process and was an incredible advocate for us. It is extremely rare nowadays to find someone with Donn's friendliness, attention to detail, personal integrity and his desire to exceed his customer's expectations. I wouldn't hesitate to buy from Left Coast Classics again, and I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a high-quality classic car and an honest, stress-free buying experience. Since we were in Sonoma, CA on Valentine's Day weekend without any plans, Donn even suggested a local restaurant on the square, which provided the perfect backdrop for my wife and I to grab a celebratory drink and a memorable meal. Five+ stars all the way! Greg & Jen G - Plano, Texas
