My husband was in accident in his 2006 Honda Ridgeline. Insurance deemed it totaled. We looked everywhere to find the same truck. There were plenty of small dealerships that had the Honda Ridgeline but something about the sales person I was not comfortable with. Other sales people I called were pretty iffy. I was so tired of looking but mostly trusting the dealership until I accidently came across VStar in Walnut Creek. I saw their 5 star reviews and I thought to myself, there is no way a car dealership can have so many 5 Stars. These reviews must all be related to one another (LOL!) which I thought. So I said, okay let me give it one last shot, because after this, I am done. So I went ahead and called to see about the 2013 Honda Ridgeline. The sales person I spoke with was very professional so we made an appt to see the truck. We were very impressed that the 2013 Honda Ridgeline was in great condition. We looked around the truck and it looked good just like the photos. It also drove nice. Gino made us feel very comfortable. Not pushy, answered all our questions even asked us if we saw the minor (small) bumper damage on the truck which we did not. He wanted to make sure we knew as much as he did about the truck. Amazing, who does that? It was something about this small car dealership and Gino that I really felt comfortable. I guess it was good energy. Well we did it, we purchased the Ridgeline and we love it. OMG! these reviews are NOT fake. (LOL!!!) Gino thank you so much for your genuine and trustworthy car dealership service. Your honesty and integrity make customers like me want to return again and again. Keep up the good work with your car business! Honesty is priceless. Happy customers......

VSTAR auto is a class in and of its own. Yuriy and Gino were professional throughout when we purchased a stunning 2007 Lexus Rx400h hybrid with only 74k miles. This was the 4th Lexus Rx400h we test drove and VSTAR had the cleanest one out the lot! You can tell they treat their purchasing criteria like a fine art collector with the stable of cars they curate for their customers. I love talking cars and both Yuriy and Gino didn't skip a beat! While testing I noticed the high beam was out and Gino promptly went out to get a new bulb to resolve the issue. I will definitely be back to do business with VSTAR again in the future. You guys give dealerships a good name, I wish there was more like you in the industry.

I am very impressed with VSTAR, Yuri and his team. I purchased a 350Z and the pricing was very competitive. They let me test drive the car and didn't rush me for any step of the process. I couldn't get my down payment because it was Sunday and the banks were closed. Yuri personally delivered the car the next day and when the bank was open. As for the 350Z. The interior and exterior was very clean when I purchased. VSTAR did an excellent job detailing the car. I've been driving the car for a month now and it feels like a brand new car. No issues. I'm very satisfied.

We had an amazing experience purchasing our first 2021 Porsche Macan S from Northgate Auto, and we…read morecan't recommend them enough! A huge thank you to Viva, who made the entire experience unforgettable. From the moment we arrived, she made our test drive so much fun. We spent time talking about our careers, shared some great conversations, and she was 100% honest, genuine, and never made us feel pressured. It truly felt like she cared about helping us find the right vehicle, not just making a sale. We even had a great time bonding with the rest of the sales team while watching the FIFA World Cup game, which made the dealership feel welcoming and relaxed. Her manager was equally professional, and the entire team kept their word throughout the process. They genuinely take care of their customers. The purchasing process was incredibly easy, fast, and mostly virtual, which made everything so convenient. Of course, there were a few terms to work through to finalize the deal, but they were understanding, fair, and willing to work with us to make it happen. As first-time Porsche buyers, we couldn't have asked for a better experience. Thank you, Viva and the entire Northgate Auto team, for making this such a memorable milestone. We absolutely love our Macan S!

A special thank you to Byamba Dandii, who helped us throughout the entire process. I placed a reservation deposit in September, and after about four weeks of waiting, our RAV4 finally arrived. Byamba kept the process smooth and straightforward from start to finish. The entire transaction was hassle-free, with no unnecessary back-and-forth or pressure. Everything went smoothly, exactly as their motto says: "Simple Price, Simple Process." We truly appreciate Byamba's excellent customer service and professionalism. If you're looking to purchase a Toyota, I highly recommend asking for Byamba Dandii. Thank you for making our new car purchase a great experience!

Stephanie Badua is an exceptionally good communicator and just feels like a good human, which is how you feel leaving the interaction. The dealership has a very positive vibe, and I felt like I was somewhere special with great energy. The manager, Jana, was clearly proud of her team, and you could tell she's celebrated by them too. When I met with her she was carrying flowers, and I assumed they were for her. Instead she was giving a beautiful bouquet to a teammate who had been going through a hard time. I was selling a used car rather than buying one, and I was glad my Subie was in good hands to get it to the best next owner. If you're shopping for a car, I'd absolutely go here. They were as honest as I could ever expect from a dealership, and so direct, positive and communicative that it felt unusual. Maybe it's because they sell so many cars they don't need to do it any other way, but they were also fun and considerate, especially for folks with new families. Just good humans. If I could, I'd like to give Toyota of Walnut Creek 6 stars out of 5

I will never buy a car from a dealership again!…read more These guys are amazing and made the process quick, simple, and without any of the shenanigans you find at the dealerships. I was literally out the door with my brand new car in 15 minutes. The last time, I bought a car from a dealership it took me over 8 hours. Never again! Ryan Foley came highly recommended to me and he is one connected guy. He was able to solve all my car problems with an email, a few texts, and 15 short minutes to sign all the papers. Amazing! I learned Ryan has extensive contacts in the industry and could get me a great deal on any kind of new or pre-loved car I wanted. Once I told Ryan what wanted, he started the search. He quickly found exactly what I wanted in both a brand-new and almost-new car with a few thousand miles on it. I loved having options and being able to pick what worked for me with no pressure. I was going to save some money with the pre-loved car, until I saw what a great deal Ryan could get me on the brand-spanking-new car with 0% factory financing. That's right, he was able to offer me all the same dealer incentives and financing without me setting foot in the dealership. It was a no brainer! Ryan got me the car, with the options I wanted, at the price I wanted to pay, with NO HASSLE! Ryan was simply great to deal with and is both super knowledgeable and very easy to get along with. If you need a car Ryan is your guy. I not only saved a ton of money, but I didn't have to waste my whole day in a dealership. I should also say I was also able to trade-in my old clunker and got a more than fair price. Most people know they can sell a used car to a broker, but I think it's obvious that I was also really impressed with what they can do with a new car as well. That said, the trade-in process was just as smooth as the purchase and couldn't have been easier. I can't recommend Ryan enough. He will take care of you!

"I dont have time to answer your million questions" was the response after couple of questions. I don't understand how he does his sales with that attitude.
