Great place! Will is super friendly and very flexible. When I first dropped off my car for a Smog check, it didn't pass because the car just came from the dealer and the computers were reset, meaning the onboard systems were not ready to evaluate the car. Will was nice enough to not charge me. He told me to drive the car a bit and come back tomorrow. I did that and passed with no problem. I'd definitely recommend this place to anyone looking to get their car smog checked! read more

Got me in same day, prompt, 10 min experience with a clean waiting area and good customer service.

Such lovely customer service, quick turnaround in a pleasant space! What a surprisingly pleasant experience for a mundane task!

Angie is a RockStar!! Not only was she able to fit my car in for a smog check without an appointment, but she did so with amazing efficiency and wonderful hospitality. Also, the lobby is very welcoming and clean! I will definitely come here again and tell everyone I know about Soco Smog. read more

Fast, friendly service! Angie responded to my quote request on Yelp and gave me a competitive offer. I definitely recommend going here if you need a smog check read more

Soco Smog Test is run efficiently, priced competitively, and has great customer service. The whole experience felt more like waiting in my living room for my bread to toast than getting a smog test. It's a woman-owned small business that puts all other businesses to shame. Angie really has this operation set up well and it shows. read more

The nicest company. Angie was so helpful, I can't express how thrilled my experience was. Having been in the auto repair for over 45 years I'm confident in recommending this shop to anyone. read more

Great place for super quick smog check! I emailed Will last night because I needed my smog check done today or my DMV renewal was going to expire. He replied very fast and schedule me for an appointment. The smog check last 5 minute. Gladly my car passed and I went back to work within 10 min. Will was super nice and welcoming. The price was very cheap and if my car didn't pass he would have not charged me at all. Had a great experience here. Highly recommend! read more

Soco is my new fav smog shop and I really liked the shop I previously went to! Wide open fresh air, super clean shop, great signage, easy to find. Angie makes you feel like you are stopping by a friend's shop, right when you walk up. Super cool chick! It is so rad to support a women-owned business!! All the best, Angie. read more

Highly recommend soco smog test. Angie is great and does everything herself. I'll be back with my other car soon.

My wife and I bought a new Porsche Macan in Oregon. In order to register it in CA, we needed a smog check. My wife wanted to use a woman-owned biz. Angie was the answer to my wife's prayers. Welcoming, competent, fast, and value based. We are so pleased to have found Angie and Soco Smog Test, and we will be recommending her to both men and women acquaintances who want the best in smog checks. Paul and Ronnie read more

A1 service over at SOCO! They were so quick and made sure i was comfortable as could be while they serviced my vehicle. Really wouldn't go anywhere else read more

In and out in less than 20 minutes (10 of which was the owner driving my car from the wrong lot wherein I initially parked). Support a woman-owned business and get some free drinks while you wait. This station is also within the cleanest/neatest set of car maintenance stalls in Costa Mesa, which made it easy to park. read more

We needed to get a smog for a title transfer and Angie had the car smog check completed in 15 minutes. The place is super clean, affordable and Angie is super professional. Soco Smog is a great choice. read more

I needed to have my VW smogged so after checking YELP I went to Soco Smog, and was greeted by Angie, the owner/operator. She quickly gathered my information and hooked my car up to the smog test computer. Angie knows her business, and in under 15 minutes I was in and out of her shop, my car passed all tests, and was on my way down the road. I would highly recommend Soco Smog. read more

This was the best smog check experience I've had. The lady who owns this place answers your questions, your phone calls and helps you feel more comfortable. She does it right in front of you so I felt more at ease. I 100% recommended this to anyone and especially other people who don't know much about cars or smog checks. read more

The fastest, easiest no hassle smog I've ever had done! By far! I don't know why every where else isn't this way. I will always come here from now on! Great service! read more

I needed to get a Smog Check, so of course I googled places in my area. After reading a couple reviews I had narrowed it down and decided to stop by SoCo smog. I am soooo happy that I did. The owner Will greeted me in the parking lot with a warm and friendly hello. He was genuine, easy to talk to and very good looking :) From start to finish he took care of all the details and had the smog done in less then 15 min. I would highly recommend SoCo Smog! Be sure to go visit Will for your next smog check! read more

Will was super cool and great to work with. Found this spot near my office and shot down during lunch. Got me in and out in 15mins.

Will was very professional and informative. As like most car owners I have been to many different places to get my car smog checked, none that were as fast and clean as Soco Smog Check. Thank you Will! read more

I can't recall the last time I had smog check, but this experience is memorable one. They are open until 6:30pm and I was in and out within half an hour. The waiting area felt more like a hotel lounge then that of a grimy garage. Angie was so gracious and accommodating and her furry dog was very entertaining. I will definitely be back and also recommend her service. read more

Read the reviews and decided if I need to get a smog check done I might as well support a woman owned business. Angie was incredibly sweet and I'm a sucker for dogs. She gets you in and out very quickly. Thanks again. read more

SoCo made smogging my car a breeze! They were quick to answer the phone, scheduled my appointment for within the hour, gave easy to follow directions to their location, and got me in and out in under 15 minutes. The employee took the time to explain all charges and some helpful tips regarding my vehicle registration. When I mentioned thinking about selling my vehicle, he provided even more helpful information regarding smog requirements and vehicle sales. Definitely appreciate the good work! read more
