Desert Auto

I had a great experience with this place. The owner is very friendly and the Mercedes I bought was very clean as he promised me. I will definitely recommend them to all my friends and family.

Watch out for this business. Check engine lights and codes have been reset I know at this place and engines have been fixed temporarily to get you off the lot. Spit shines on the cars and sales people promising great deals are the norm here. Most of these cars have been turned into local dealers and end up here because of problems or high miles. Don’t let a shiny paint job fool you. Do your homework and check local dealerships for service records for these cars. You will be surprised at what you find and will run like hell from this showroom!
Stick to reputable dealerships that have a track record of honesty and morality.

This place is fantastic! Great selection and very nice people!
I would recommend this place when looking for a car 100%

Maybe I should have done my research first and looked up the car for any problems but these guys sold me a Mercedes that had a bad transmission. According to another mechanic after I bought the car he tells me that the brain inside the transmission was reset with no errors so that when these guys sold the car it would seem like a good transmission. These guys knew what they were doing and pulled over a good one on me selling me a car for nine grand with the transmission going out.
Be very careful trying to buy a car from these guys don’t be like me do your research before you purchase a car. I am now out $ 9000 and I have no car.

This is like buying a car from a old traveling show snake oil salesman. They sold my car knowing that it had problems, admitted changing the spark plugs, because a mechanic told them to do that. The reason they did that was because there was a HUGE problem — oil on the spark plugs, bad. Then they tried to step up for about a minute, wheel and deal for the repairs, offer to buy back my car for $ 4,000 less„ cost me an additional $ 5,000 and think they can get away with it. Was told by the tow truck driver that they always had to tow cars when people bought them here — I was the 3^rd one in three weeks from the same driver. Was told by the owner to take them to court — they had been five times recently and won on the cases. Buyer beware.

Great guy, Edon, very nice, funny and smart. He has some great cars. Small showroom, but good deals. Lots of imports, BMW, MBZ, Audi’s, low miles and priced right.
My friend bought a MBZ E350, what a wonderful car and about $ 1500 below anyone else in the desert!!!
Not sure why the other review means, everybody should always take to a mechanic or be aware of the item before they buy… Duh! But if the car breaks you cant blame the auto store, they didnt build it…

Nice guys… but you need to be VERY careful. The cars might LOOK good, but if you can’t TAKE to your mechanic and let him inspect it ON A LIFT, walk away … fast. Forget how it LOOKS… get a thumbs-​up from the DEALER’S MECHANIC… not some crappy cheap greasy mechanic. Or you might be sorry! Went in with 2 friends a few months ago. Bought what I thought was a nice shiny import. Lots of problems… and it’s a good German car. The cars are sharp… but some of the cars are those that other dealers would send to auctions.

I typically don’t write reviews, but every once in a while you have an experience that makes you wanna ‘spread the word.’ That said, I just had a really great experience purchasing a 2004 BMW 330 ci from Desert Auto. From the get go, both Vanya and Sunny were friendly and personable — but more important than that… they were knowledgable about their inventory. (Pretty fun, high end inventory as well)
When I think about the time between definitively deciding to purchase the car to the time I drove the car home, well, let’s say «integrity» comes to mind. There was a small dime sized dent/​blemish on the rear passenger side of the car — they agreed to take care of it for me. They delivered on their promise; going above and beyond to honor their word. Getting a nice finished look required painting that whole side of the car. They did an immaculate job.
Let’s face it, going to buy a car can put one on edge… feeling like you’re gonna get ripped off and/​or buy a lemon. It’s that whole «car salesman thing»…try as you might, you just can’t put it out of your head. Vanya and his team blow that stereotype outta the water — a great example of how to run a first-​class, fair and honest auto sales operation. I’d recommend Desert Auto to anyone I know.
