I saw an add for a Mercedes that looked sweet and I went down to take a look at it.i was impressed with the quality of used cars they had. The cars all looked nice and clean and in good shape.i ended up buying the car and the owner Zora did some in house financing for me and got me out with my Mercedes. There was a belt that needed replaced and he said bring it in and he would fix it free. Which was awesome. Highly recommend this dealership. They were friendly and efficient. Every question I had about my car he answered. Her had obviously done his homework! read more

I read the other review dated 12/18/2011 and, as a recent and more than satisfied customer of ZRV Auto, felt that I should express my viewpoint. Approximately 2 weeks ago I purchased a vehicle from ZRV. Zora, the owner, was super helpful, super accommodating, and knowledgeable. Very low pressure and very professional. Summary of my experience: I called ZRV, and set an appointment. Zora showed up right on time (in fact a few minutes early). We went to his warehouse of vehicles, and he let both my wife and I do separate test drives. Not only was the financing paperwork conducted smoothly and quickly, but ZRV also gave me a more than fair trade in value on my prior car. This was a MUCH better experience than I have ever had at any other dealership. Don't let somebody else's negative posting keep you from checking out ZRV Auto. I couldn't recommend them more highly. read more

Best deal i got from shopping around other places, big thanx to Zora for helping me out and making it happen! Great customer service! Def telling all my friends n fam to go to ZRV for their car shopping needs! read more

ZRV Auto - My bmw z4 from ZRV! - Used Car Dealers Near Me - Brea, California

Do not even hesitate to make your next auto purchase at ZRV Auto! My husband and I have been shopping for a car for last 2 months and ZRV Auto superseded all our expectations of what the process would be like. We first went to a few local dealerships and got the complete run around. We then met with Zora at ZRV and he finally put our minds at ease. He is extremely knowledgeable and there are no BS games, he is very straightforward and will make sure you get the best deal possible right from the beginning, unlike many other dealers. He made sure to find the exact car we were looking forward, and it ended up having better options than we expected. He also made sure the car was in perfect condition, clean and fully detailed....no other place cares to give you service like that. We are extremely happy with our experience and highly recommend them! Thank you ZRV AUTO!!! read more

These guys were the best to deal with. Quick, hassle free, and they beat my best offer I had when selling my car. Very professional and polite. No games and very straightforward! read more

Purchased a vehicle a month ago from ZRV auto and I keep telling myself I have to find time to get this review in. If you're looking for assurance in purchasing your vehicle from ZRV, well this is it. This is your calling and this is the place to do it! I had the pleasure of working with Zora on closing my deal. My dad thought he was the most genuine and honest car seller he's ever met and I agree! Why purchase a brand new car when you can get an almost new car minus all the extra tax and fees? I was growing out of my Scion tC and was looking for a bigger car. Well, unlike other car dealers, ZRV auto worked with their clients on a personable level. Zora was accommodating and delivered professional service based on my wants and needs in a car. They didn't have a lot full of cars when I arrived, it was a small office tucked away in a business office plaza. I found my vehicle online and and got an appointment the next day. Zora made it really easy for me to purchase my Mercedes Benz GLK 350. The vehicle was very clean and exceeded my expectations. I am very thankful and happy with my purchase:)! Highly recommend my colleagues and any future car buyers to peep ZRV auto out! read more

My wife and I bought a minivan from ZRV, and honestly this was one of the best experiences. I have nothing but good things to say about these guys!

When we are ready to get another vehicle we for sure will use ZRV. read more

This place is awesome I highly recommend this dealer talk to Zora for all your car shopping needs he really knows how to take care of his clients I'll be returning for more cars for sure after visiting over ten others none can compare with ZRV Auto inc they have the best selection and the best prices. read more

ZRV Auto - Used Car Dealers Near Me - Brea, California

So. What to make of ZRV Auto... Well for starters, I had my eye on a very pretty 2005 BMW. I tried using the website to contact the dealership, no response. I tried calling the dealership several times using the number on the website. No answer. I tried emailing them and still had no response. Due to persistence and the fact that I really liked the car I decided to just show up to the dealership in person. Lious was the lone salesman that day and after test driving the car. He, my girlfriend, and I sat in his office negotiated on price and finally left when Lious agreed to hold the car for us for a week. I was going out of town and wanted to leave down a deposit. Lious told me that his boss said it wasn't necessary and sure enough when I arrive again in person, after calling three times, the car was sold. Learned a couple things after all this. Always get the deal and hold in writing. If they can't bother to contact you its a red flag. And never, NEVER, make any deal with ZRV Auto. Their word means nothing. read more

Great service and easy to work with. Made the transaction easy and simple. They made an offer that I could not refuse and beat my other offers. Very happy. read more

I sold my car here earlier this week. Communication was quick and responsive. Owner personally came to me to inspect my car and beat all other offers. Paperwork was fast and Zora even helped me look up a car I was interested in at another dealership. Offered me help if I ever needed it and then got me an Uber home. He's upfront, polite, and would go back to him if I need to sell a car. read more

Really good experience buying the car and spending some time with Zora, but the car that I bought did have some issues I had to fix within a week of purchasing it. The strange thing is they didn't even come up when I got it inspected. I'll be leaving a separate review for the shop that did the inspection, which was quite disappointing. The car I bought was a Golf TDI. Beautiful thing, 2006 with low miles. The dream road trip machine. I liked everything about it during the test drive, and the only funny thing I noticed was that the clutch had a bit of a whirring feel when it was being engaged or disengaged. That ended up not even being an issue according to my mechanic, Top Shop Automotive in Santa Barbara. As I was driving it home on the 101, I noticed something odd: the temperature gauge was running low, and by low I mean 80°F. I kept watching it and found that it bounced around quite a bit and got higher when I was in a lower gear or accelerating more. While I was driving, since there's not much else to do, I called a good friend who's a mechanic and he said it could be that the thermostat was stuck open or the gauge had some issues. When I got home, I took it to Top Shop and found that's pretty close to what happened. The thermostat was an "old black design" which Volkswagen replaced most of a long time ago. They were known for being stuck open, which is way better than being stuck closed of course. (My last car overheated so I watch the gauge like a hawk now.) I also found out that the temperature sensor was faulty. So I got them both replaced, which was about $500 with the labor, parts, and initial diagnosis. I was fine with that -- it happens. But there was one more thing. The front left control arm bushing was broken and needed to be replaced. Sadly not a quick job. That weighed in at around $500 as well. I was pretty disappointed in the inspection shop for missing it because it's a pretty key thing. At this point I'm a bit somber about my purchase with ZRV. Zora was a great guy and I enjoyed the experience, I just didn't expect to have to pay $1000 to make sure I can drive the car safely within the first few weeks. The nice thing was Zora took around that amount off the price of the car when we discussed things. It's hard to see that as a good thing when I still had to pay the money for something later, but I do appreciate him working with me. In the end, three stars seems appropriate. It wasn't bad, and it could have been better, and I'm still glad I chose ZRV. read more

I just purchased by second car from ZRV Auto, and the reason it's only my second car is because the first car I bought lasted 7 years. I bought a 2006 Honda Pilot with 60K miles on it, and I drove it to 200K miles. Zero problems until very recently when I needed to get rid of it. I contacted Zora and he was able to sell my Pilot the same day I gave it to him. I had him search for a replacement car, and he found me a great car just a couple weeks later. Excellent communication and excellent customer service is why I will keep coming back, and why I refer anyone I know to ZRV Auto. read more

Purchased a car from ZRV Auto Inc a few weeks back and never got a chance to write a review till now. One of the most reliable Auto dealers out there. Stright forward no BS going back and forth. Told him the car I want and what I'm willing to pay for it and they made it happen. If your looking for an honest and straightforward place to buy a good quality car. Go to ZRV and ask to speak to Alex. Hands down great guy with quality experience! Thanks ZRV! read more

Purchasing a car from ZRV, was THE best car buying experience I have ever had. Zora is an easy going, good natured individual. All of the paperwork was complete in a very reasonable time. I researched countless vehicles for weeks. Fortunetely for me, ZRV had exactly what I wanted. The price was more than fair as well. There is no doubt that my wife and I will be visiting you when we look for her next car. Thank you Zora, Sam Tapia read more

Thank you to ZRV and Zora for an amazing car buying experience. The entire process from beginning to end was smooth and stress free. I love my Mercedes! The car was exactly as you described and and even provided me with the carfax report. I will be referring all my family and friends to ZRV Auto. Thanks again and I will follow up after a few months in my vehicle and update everyone about how my car is doing. read more

2 months ago I gave 5 stars for the car was running and didn't seem anything wrong and transaction seemed very smooth, Zora told me he would try and get me the cd needed for the touch screen navigation system to call him in a few weeks, but to make sure I gave a review, I gave my review and called he said "oh yes I believe I did get the cd in let me call you right back" didn't hear from him since, now my engine light has been coming on so in me trying to fix this problem I removed the negative from the battery which deactivated the security system so once again I call him asking for it, and was told it should be in the book but the book says to ask the dealer if I do not have it...again he ask me to send the information to him and hangs up, then doesn't answer, he has not been very helpful after making the sale but I guess I shouldn't be surprised, I will give a better rating once I start receiving help to actually be able to use the vehicle. read more

One of the best car brokers in southern cali, hands down. From the first second I walked in, I knew I could count on them to get exactly what I wanted within my price range. Special shout out to Zora, for making it happen! read more

I found a decent BMW here that I inquired about via email. Zora, I believe the owner, responded quickly and answered questions about this car. I scheduled a mobile mechanic to look at this car for the following day since I wasn't in the immediate area and confirmed that with Zora. The following day the mechanic arrived on time, but was evidently on his phone for up to 45 minutes after he got there. Zora responded via email that his appointment was for 2pm and it was now for 2:45pm. I apologized via email, though I don't know the circumstances of why the mechanic was on the phone, and running late. After all he was a mobile mechanic I hired online. Zora then calls me to point out the same thing! So I apologized again, as he seemed to be making a huge stink out of it. While I realize everyones time is valuable, I was clearly apologizing for something that wasn't my fault, and as a car dealer and businessman I figured he could roll with the punches. I felt his customer service severely lacking. After a complete inspection was done, that I paid for, I took two days to think about it, before I emailed Zora back with an offer early morning. In the late afternoon I had yet to hear back from him, so I emailed him again, making sure that he received my email and how he felt about the offer, letting him know I was open to negotiation. Guess what? No answer! The guy that was able to respond to all of my previous emails within minutes was no longer responding to my emails. Now 1 day later, I see the car missing off the website. Im sure this means the car was sold. And since it was sold, I guess Zora didn't value a potential customer enough to respond or even try to make a counter offer if I really wanted the car. I don't appreciate this behavior, and even if they have the exact car I want all over again, will not buy from this dealership. Bad customer service skills. And honestly, I would have paid full price. I would have paid more if someone else was interested. But, Zora will never know that, because he didn't bother to respond to me. Bad business. Oh well......Thanks for nothing! read more

I came here to look at a blue hardtop Miata in August of last year. They let me take the car to an independent inspector, who found numerous problems with the car that totaled over $1000. I'd recommend steering clear of this place based on that alone, but if you check it out be sure to get the car inspected before buying! read more

FRAUD! DO NOT BUY A CAR HERE. I bought a 2009 beetle and twenty minutes later the clutch gave out on the 55 freeway. I was stuck on the side of the road for two and half hours. Zora was not helpful at all since I signed an "As Is" contract. I was given a clean Carfax on the car and Luis told me they put the car through a rigorous inspection but there's no way they didn't know the clutch was bad. I had the car towed- paid $3,000 for a new clutch, $600 for diagnostics when the engine light come on two weeks later. It needs a new fuel pump, brake pads and back tires. None of this was mentioned when I bought the car. I filed a claim with the Better Business Bureau - and I will continue to pursue this company as a bad actor so that no one else will experience what I did. read more

Originally I gave a good review. but three months after I bought my Miata unfortunately the car took a complete turn for the worse.... I had a failed rod. Only thing I could do was buy a NEW engine. When you buy a car that's used you take a risk. At first when i drove the car home the first day the check engine light was on. They helped me out and took it to there mechanic and he fixed it... it happen again a week later. same thing. After awhile I got tired of it and took it into the Mazda dealer. They told me the bad news... I told the guy at zrv what happen and he pretty much was like. Oh that sucks...but of course he's not going to spend 8k to fix a car for me. So I ended up spending 8k on a car worth 8k to have it running good again. Now I would say that's a fluke seeing that the reason I trusted there cars was because of the good Yelp reviews. Unfortunately I recommend them to a family friend. She got a pretty nice looking 06 Audi. After taking it home she was having problems with the check engine light and a couple of other things. Turns out there was a 2k problem with the alignment or something like that... my best Advice to you is take whatever car your interested in to a dealership and have them take a look. Maybe cost you a couple 100 to have it looked over. But could end up saving you 1000s. I wish I did that. read more

You won't have better "car buying" experience anywhere else! Zora was super calm, confident, knowledgable and flexible. He was very reassuring throughout the entire process and it took less than an hour to complete all of the steps. I cannot believe it is possible to buy a car with such ease and trust. He never tried to change my mind, push me in a different direction or take advantage of my price point. Buying this car was a pleasure mainly bc of how Zora took care of us. read more

Let me say one thing first. If you are in the market for a car and you just want someone to treat you fair, look no further than ZRV Auto. Zora is one of the most honest people that I have ever met in the car business! After buying my car here not sure why anyone would want to go anyplace else. Go and see for yourself. ZRV Auto will be the best decision you will ever make when looking to buy a car. read more

Well... I really don't know what the first persons deal was? I dealt with Zora and my exprience was GREAT! The car that I bought was a '99 Audi Avant. The cars condition was pretty good with the exception of a front bumper dent, which he put in a due bill to fix. I purchased my car yesterday and I am still happy with my payment,vehicle, and overall buying experience provided by ZRV. Well gotta go have fun in my new car!!! Thanks Zora, Amanda '99 Audi Avant read more

Sold me a car that within the first week had all kinds of issues from the CD player not working, the passenger side windows not rolling up and down, the 'miles to empty' meter not calculating correctly, and the AC not consistently working. Thanks so much for the lemon and no integrity. But he made sure to ask for a yelp review! Here it is! read more

I've been to a couple appointments at this dealer and that's not at all how he is, was honest about the inventory and the issues if any. I haven't found what I'm looking for yet but He is very patient since the car I'm looking for is an older one. Zora has been very honest and patient with me about the cars he has. So if your looking for an honest used car dealer he definitely should be on the list! Plus I like how he keeps his inventory covered! Probably gonna purchase something from him later this month, Let you guys know how it goes... read more
