Good deal? Nahhhh, no car fax history of it ever being to a dealer for any work. That's not a good sign.

Tricky, tricky, remember you are the buyer. Take as long as you need, do the research enough, bring someone who can check the car out for you. No matter the pressure, you don't have to buy it. That was the case for my coworker, I am glad I was able to go see the car before she made a mistake. Funny how the seller kept calling and bothering her for a car that isn't even worth the amount they are asking. Leaks everywhere, suspension, axle, everything is leaking. They saw her and tried to push it on her, karma. The tires have rivers, that's a $700 investment. Front rotors are done, $600 job minimum. Alignment $140 Axles $500-1000 It needs a valve reseal job, that's another $1,000 minimum. Sheesh, that's a lot of work for a purchase for anyone.

ZAS Motors had the Viper I dreamed of, they were great! They are an amazing family run local business!

Happy that my wife and I purchased our dream car from a local, family car sales dealership! Thank you Zamir, Thomas, and our sales rep JERSEY for a wonderful car buying experience:) I've looking for this model car with low miles for 2 years and here I found it 1 mile away from our home in Kensington! Do yourself a favor and check these guys out. I'd write more but we're going for a cruise up the coast with the top down on this beauty:)

I normally don't review car dealerships but I felt this one was necessary. Let me start off by saying that my overall personal interaction with the salesperson working was pleasant, not pushy, and relatively transparent. I feel the salesman wasn't familiar with Jeep's which I can understand, it's hard to know every car make and model front to back, so I don't discredit his efforts. He was generally very nice and pleasant. My complaint with this company is they're selling this particular 10+ year old Jeep Wrangler Sahara for $4k-$6k more than the blue book priced value. The other issues above this ^ are as follows: Upon inspecting the vehicle, the appearance is polished which I can tell they made this car appealing to the buyer. However, it quickly became a smoke and mirror situation. Popped the hood and the radiator cap was missing. Red flag. The back seats were also removed from this vehicle, which the salesperson did offer to go to the Junk yard and find some for me. The car sounded like it was idling ok. The aftermarket off-roading tires were at 40% tread which for me, would be an additional $600+ to replace them, you cannot just buy 2 tires on a 4-wheeling vehicle. Another expense. The car seems to ride ok, whoever had it before made the differential much More dramatic for crawling, so the steering was extremely loose even on city roads. Took this baby on the freeway to see how she did, I had to flinstone my foot to the ground to even get it to go above 60mph, took time and effort. Then the entire car began shaking tremendously, it felt like it was going to fall apart. Yes, that's an exaggeration but it was pretty bad. The car then coming to a stop, I had to slam all my energy into the breaks to get it to stop, meaning the breaks had a malfunction or have not been refreshed for resale. After this scary test drive, I then drop it off at the lot where I went to roll up the driver side window. Which, would to my surprise not roll up. The lot assistant said he informed his tech guy and that there's a way to get it up but it's a sweet spot. I drove by this morning, that window is still down (I live a few blocks away). The reason why I'm going into detail is because Had I not known what to look for, I may have purchased what appeared to be a cool great car, and then been stuck with a 10 year old car that needs constant upgrades and repairs. This car also says " CLEAN TITLE" but when you review the car auto report it has had structural damage twice which means, no! It's likely a salvaged title. To anyone who is young or inexperienced with purchasing cars. Please take someone with you who can look out for these things, I've made this mistake as a kid and don't want someone to be sold a car that's not worth it's value like this. Good luck.

After test drive.

This past weekend I went to ZAS Motors to see about a BMW Z Roadster. The young man "helping" me did not seem very happy or motivated to be there. I asked to test drive the car and during the test drive he was in his phone the whole time and didn't care about any of the questions I had. I asked about the previous owner and if the car was properly maintained. His response was I'll give you the car fax and you can do your own research on the car. I asked again, about how the car was acquired. I was finally told "by auction". I asked, if there was any issues with the car? He replied, all cars from auctions have problems. That the price tag on the car meant it had no problems. I further asked questions about the BMW I already knew like the size of the engine. If it where either an inline 6 or 4 to see if he was really acting the way he was acting. He gave me all wrong answers. Getting back to the dealership I inspected the car for oil/ radiator coolant leaks. While looking under the car I noticed engine oil accumulating at the bottom of the engine. I asked about it, to which he replied he'll have it looked at during the week. The car was also $4k-$5k over Kelly blue book. In closing I told the sales associate if I where to make an all cash offer of top Kelly blue book price and I was told no. He can only do $500 off, keep in mind I had the cash on me. I won't be going back there again. Potential buyers be warned.

Pretty new BMW parked touching the metal chains :(

Thomas at Zas Motors was a very personable and helped me find an acceptable rate for financing, as I found myself in need of a car after my daily threw a rod.

Paykan Auto in San Diego? Oh man, buckle up, because you just asked for the…read moreyou-can't-handle-the-truth truth about these guys. Most mechanics in SD see a car with a weird noise, a dashboard lit up like a Christmas tree, or something that's been Frankenstein-ed together from three different continents, and they immediately hit the panic button: "Nah, too complicated, take it to the dealer," or "That's gonna cost you an arm, a leg, and your firstborn." They run faster than you do when someone yells "free In-N-Out." But Paykan Auto? These legends look at that same nightmare job--the timing belt on a 20-year-old import that's been babied by someone who thinks "maintenance" means prayer, the transmission that's been slipping since the Obama administration, the electrical gremlins that make your car randomly play polka music--and they just crack their knuckles and say, "Challenge accepted." They've been fixing cars (and selling solid used ones) at 5486 El Cajon Blvd for years, with reviews screaming honesty, fair prices, and straight-up wizardry. One person literally said their family has used them as mechanics for 15+ years while buying multiple cars there. Another called Hadi and the crew "THE BEST!!!!" They tackle the stuff that makes other shops sweat: weird European mods, beat-up daily drivers on their last legs, you name it. It's like if Jack Reacher was a mechanic--quiet, no BS, gets the job done right, and leaves you wondering why everyone else is so scared of hard work. You roll in thinking your car's doomed, you roll out thinking, "Wait, that was actually affordable AND it drives better than when I bought it?" Truth bomb: In a city full of mechanics who ghost you harder than a bad Tinder date, Paykan Auto is the rare shop that doesn't flinch. They handle the repairs everyone else runs from... and they do it with a smile, fair pricing, and zero drama. If your car's throwing a tantrum that would make a toddler jealous, take it to Paykan. Just don't blame me when you become one of those people who starts every story with, "These guys at Paykan fixed my [insert horror story here] like it was nothing." (Pro tip: Call ahead--Hadi and the team are busy saving San Diego's sanity one scary repair at a time.)

I bought a car from there a week ago. They are nice people excellent people the owner he's…read moregentleman.Thanks Hadi
