Jenny M.

I had my Porsche Boxster S for sale on auto trader for 52k. The man who works in the office offered me 48k and we agreed on 49,750. Lie number 1. Because we agreed on that price I took my car to sell it to them driving 30 minutes each way to get there. They kept me there 2 hours and came back to offer me 47,500. So right off the bat I was LIED to again. Then they offered me 48k and I left. I hate liars. So two hours later I get a call from the manager saying the reason they changed the offer was because the transmission had a leak. Funny there's NEVER been a puddle under my car. Then they said the two back tires were different, big deal, they're expensive speed rated tires, a chip on the windshield (another LIE), and "many costly repairs" All total garbage to get the offer low. The first guy wouldn't even come out to talk to me. I was told that the repairs will cost too much to do so they're just going to sell it AS IS. What a crock of bull. This is classic bait and switch. I brought my car back the next day and sold it to them because I didn't want a hefty repair on the transmission which is very suspect. They low ball and lie. NO ONE came out to talk to me, not even very rude. I'd call that UNPROFESSIONAL... BAD customer relations. I brought an important document of MINE for them to COPY not KEEP, instead The sales man kept it. I need that back by the way. Will I get it? Probably NOT. Fits in with the rest of my experience here. I would say, BUYER BEWARE. I read other reviews before going and they're very bad, (good thing I wasn't buying anything). I can see why. The best customer service there was their free soda. They have nice cars and a LOT of vultures, sales people, on the lot. When I got home I had a text asking me to remove my bad reviews. So I changed them with brevity in mind. I am waiting for the check to clear the bank. I don't trust LIARS. I would NEVER recommend this store to anyone because I was lied to. Look at the other reviews to see how they treat buyers and decide for yourself. I feel sorry for the person who buys the Porsche because they said they're not going to fix anything they had issues with. AS IS BUYER BEWARE. Shame on you STG for your shady business practices. I would NEVER buy a car from you. This is based on my experience and their bad reviews. I've owned a lot of cars in my long life and STG ranks up in my top 3 WORST auto dealers. My suggestions: better customer service and less time on your computer, dress professionally, don't walk around VAPING, stay with your customer during the transaction and don't lie to customers. I'll never return. Now they're selling my car as is with all the issues. BEWARE OF THESE CROOKS. IT DOESN'T HAVE A SECOND KEY and c look at the damage on the bumper and wheel they didn't fix. Mismatched tires still there?

1 Star - Stay away from STG Auto Group Bought an Acura RDX here on 3/13/26 and it was hands down the worst car-buying experience I've ever had. They lied about add-ons being mandatory, claiming we needed them to get a lower interest rate. That's not true. I even found paperwork during signing that clearly said the add-ons were optional. When I questioned it, the salesperson literally admitted he doesn't like working there because of how they do business. They also told me dealers can't mark up interest rates in California anymore, which is false. Later, someone from their team accidentally confirmed the bank approved me at a LOWER rate than what I was given. We put $5,000 down ($2,700 cash), and they refused to give a receipt for the cash. The car had a brake issue the SAME DAY we drove it home (braking on its own + warning light). It's now been in their shop for almost 3 weeks with: no updates conflicting stories constant runaround I was hung up on by their finance manager and even dealt with someone who gave me info and later turned out they have me a name of someone that did not even work there. This place has zero integrity. Just pressure tactics, lies, and terrible service after the sale. Save yourself the headache--go somewhere else. These guys are scammers: Sales: Georgio (should be how you spell it) Sales Manager: Anthony (bald with tattoos on his neck) Financial Manager: Chris A. (Very childish when speaking to you, over talks you and hangs up on you mid conversation) Fake guy: Tony Suarez

Car I bought from STG

I bought a car from there bigest mistake I ever made no floor mats they said going to send me been 3 months should have gave me the stuff from my old car did not get I think they more interested in the money then the customer service don't care

Bait and Switch

The reason for the one star is the bait and switch tactics by this dealership. I understand dealerships need to make money on cars they buy. STG made me a very generous offer of 15,000 over the phone. I even verified whether my vehicle would be subject to reappraisal after inspection. I was told no, that it was "guaranteed," which led me to believe 15k was what I would get (lie #1). I made the one hour drive to Montclair and waited another hour for my vehicle to be inspected. I was then offered 14,700 due to a leaking shock, which I was unaware of, and brakes that needed to be replaced (lie #2). I know this was not accurate because I had the tires replaced less than 1,000 miles ago and was told I had 30 to 40 percent brake life remaining. At that point, I asked for my keys so I could leave. The inspector said he would speak to the manager. He returned 15 minutes later and said 14,700 was the best offer. I took my keys and left. Before I even reached the freeway, the manager called me. He explained why I should take 14,700 and said it was a fantastic offer, which I agreed it was. He talked over me and was very pushy until I told him to stop and let me speak. I explained that my issue was with the principle of the deal. He then went into a speech about how he is honest (lie #3) and trying to get me the best deal possible. We both explained our positions. I told him I understood he needed to make money and said, "after you fix the car, you're probably going to list it for 16 to 17k," based on similar cars on the lot. He responded that if he sold it for 17k he would make a huge commission, but claimed he was listing it for 15,500 and that there would be no profit after repairs. He continued to push, and I continued to decline the 14,700 offer based on principle. He eventually said he was not the one who texted me the offer, claiming he is just the inventory guy and does not deal with sales (lie #4). I pointed out that if he earns commission on a sale, then he clearly does deal with sales. I told him the statement was not honest and that it was fine we did not make a deal. Overall, I would not recommend this dealership as they wasted my time and fuel. They will find issues with your vehicle, and a "guaranteed" offer over text can change. just something to beware of when selling with STG.

They didn't fulfill their promise. They promised to provide us with the missing carpet for the pickup truck in one week before the deal was made. I didn't receive it after a week and went to follow up. They promised another week. Today, it's another 2 weeks , I am here and waiting for the salesman . I will let you guys know if there is any response.

See all

Our experience at Baron Elite was top-tier. Arian does not feel like a car salesman in the best way…read morepossible. He was very honest about the history of the vehicle we went to see, addressed all the concerns we had with the history report as well. I may be wrong but I believe he is a one-man show. He purchases, inspects, repairs himself if viable, and sells the vehicles. He was also hands-off in the best way possible, letting us take our time looking over the vehicle without hovering so we could discuss any matters we wanted to without feeling like we were being listened in on. He allowed us to test drive the vehicle without him present and also took us for a test drive to display his confidence in the vehicle's performance. I believe all the vehicles he has listed on his website are at or below market value so his pricing is rather transparent. Similar vehicles we had gone to see were priced $1-2k more than what Arian had ours listed at. After purchase, we genuinely felt like Arian's main focus was not to sell us car and complete the sale, but to make sure we were confident in our purchase and made the decision that was right for us. I have already referred some family members and if I need another vehicle in the future, I will definitely be coming to Arian at Baron Elite first. Thank you Arian for the smoothest car buying experience we have ever had.

Arian is a great honest guy, the buying process to my vehicle was very fast and smooth.read more

Driving from north Hollywood to get the car that I wanted I would say was worth it for me…read moreespecially other dealerships that I couldn't go to that literally wanted me to sell my soul. I love my car but just know that used cars prices are higher in $$$ due to the inflation. Pay attention to the total price of what you are paying than you payments. Your literally buying a old car with new car prices & more. No lie I needed the car badly for work so this info couldn't stop me The process was so long but the people that work with me there were so great. The only thing I would warn about is to make sure you do a through inspection with the car (drive the heck out of the drive test to make sure the light engine doesn't go off) and make sure you get it done at the dealership no matter how long it takes !!! Do not leave the lot without getting everything taken care of. Trust me . I had a couple issues with my purchase and dealing with Bridgecrest was a horrible experience from my monthly payment to my warranty with the car . Don't have high hopes for them especially during these uncertain times (Covid). My only advice to be on top of your account with them and record any interaction with them as the reps share inconsistency in information. The warranty process is even worse,I gave up . Luckily now , my car doesn't have issues And I can enjoy it Hopefully this help Happy car hunting

Don't sell cars that need repairs within 30 days of purchase or 5 months…read more I purchased a vehicle from DriveTime in April 2024. Within 30 days, the vehicle developed mechanical problems. Rather than resolving these issues at the dealership level, I was directed to use the SilverRock warranty. Despite continued repairs, the vehicle required a complete engine replacement in October 2024. Now in 2025, the vehicle is once again displaying a check engine light, and I am currently addressing possible transmission issues. This has been a long-term reliability concern that has required repeated service visits and significant time and effort. My review is shared for transparency so that other consumers can make an informed decision. I recommend that buyers carefully review vehicle history, inspection reports, and warranty coverage before proceeding with a purchase.
