I recently purchased a car from Desert Auto Dealer and the customer service was beyond fantastic. After a long day of hitting every dealership we could find, we stumbled upon this lot and thank goodness! Found a great car at a great price and had it on the road three days later safety and even with tinted windows. Everyone around was extremely helpful and I will 100% return and recommend over and over!

We had a great experience from start to finish! I was very skeptical about the process and buying a car sight unseen without even a test drive. They answered all my questions. Easy to deal with! At desert auto dealer, all the paperwork was done in 15 minutes. All in all, desert auto dealer made buying a car a fun and enjoyable experience. Thank you for delivering a beautiful car to our front door! :)

Very strange experience today. My fiance called about a Jeep and was given a time to come in and check it out. We get there at agreed time and are directed to said vehicle to check it out. We were looking at it for about 5 minutes when the dealers apologize and say it was sold only minutes ago over the phone. We leave and have our son call a few hours later to find out vehicle is still for sale. Not sure what their deal is, but they lost a for sure sale. I work AAA roadside service here in the desert and will be sure to let members know about my experience. I help hundreds of members a month so this dealership really screwed up.

I bought a sl 500 from them last month the car is great no problems runs and drive great the car buying experience was easy and fast no sitting around for hours waiting. I had a trade and got a good price for it and they have good prices on their cars. I would say give them a chance they are good people with good prices and some very nice cars I will buy from them again. I would like to say thanks for the great car buying experience that is rare these days

Desert Auto Dealer of Palm Desert had extremely kind salesman and the owner, Avi even came out and helped personally. I bought a Bentley that I searched for over a year. Avi gave me the best price that no competitors could come close to. The car was fully detailed and clean with not even one scratch on it! I am beyond satisfied with my purchase and I recommend any serious customers to stop buy for a great experience! Definitely a FIVE STAR review. Thank you...

Avi from Desert Auto Dealer is a great guy. Hes smart and an expert on his work. He can suggest the best car for his customers while remaining true to the choices of given by his customers. He helped me think of the budget and things like that before i settle in for a car randomly. Of course he did that while remaining within my area of choice. I will happily recommend using his service for anyone.

This review is long overdue! We bought a Toyota Prius on our 2017 winter vacation in Palm Springs and drove it back to Illinois in April. Avi helped us out and it was an excellent experience. He also went above and beyond to help us get the documents we needed for our out-of-state plates in a timely manner which we really appreciated. We love the car and would buy again from Desert Auto Dealer! Great experience and service especially compared to some of our other interactions with high pressure sales dealerships!

I saw a vehicle that I liked online. I called to check on its availability but due to my work schedule I was not able to make it until after work. Which was after their closing hours. Fadi told not to worry that he would wait for me. Upon my arrival he was kind and friendly. He took the time to show me the car with no pressure. I was pleased with the car but noticed some scratches. Fadi told me he would fix it and he did. I purchase the car. Fadi was very knowledgeable with the finance process and took care of everything. I will shop there again and recommend friends and family.

Desert Auto Dealer is one of the best family owned dealerships in Indio. They sold me a good car at a fair price when I went there. My credit was a little challenged but they explained to me that financing a car in my budget would help me bring my credit score higher and instead of living above my means that I should re-build my credit by buying a vehicle I can afford. My vehicle also wasnt starting one morning and realized the battery was dead. I called Nora and she sent someone out to jump start me so I wont be late to work. They didnt have to do that since the vehicle was purchased as is but I thought that was very kind of them. I would highly recommend buying a vehicle from Desert Auto Dealer I believe in keeping the money in the community small businesss.

Hello everyone, I personally had a great experience at Desert auto dealer! Got myself a 2012 Lexus RX 350. Avi was prompt to answer all of my questions and got me an incredible low rate on my finance. It has been now two weeks and Ive not encountered any nuisance, tags and registration were delivered a week later! I would strongly recommend this business to anyone, specially in our desert, I looked around prior to buying the car, best prices ever!

While car shopping should be an enjoyable process, majority of dealerships are known to turn it into a dreadful experience. However, not Desert Auto Dealership. They are unquestionably the most honorable place I have ever found. Desert Auto Dealership truly care for their customers and really are the real deal delivering top notch exquisite quality service. They make purchasing the perfect car a breath of fresh air experience. They have surpassed my expectations and I couldn’t be more happy with my vehicle.

We went in to look at Cars after visiting several dealerships and having sub par experiences. As soon as we walked into Desert Auto Dealer we were welcomed and didnt feel pushed into buying. There was a genuineness about both Dan And Avi that we were impressed with. It was refreshing to deal with a company and sales team that wants to get to know us and cares as well as earn business. Least pushy sales team and all very knowledgeable. We will definitely be returning for future business.

I purchased a car from them September 3rd 2020. September 4th I had to replace the battery because if a bad start issue. By September 5th it was in the shop because they sold me a car with no radiator fluid. I called the shop and they refused to tow my non driveable car in and only offered to pay half the repairs. I took it to my mechanic for a full inspection st this point. Not only was it $500 to fix the radiator, theres a rack and pinion problem that is $1.2k to fix as well. Well, I was just going to swallow that loss as well. Now the car I paid $7,500 cash out the door is going to cost me a whopping $9,200 to be driveable.But wait, theres more! I went to roll my window up, and guess what? it just fell down in the track and is now stuck in the door. Desert Auto Dealers decided the best plan of action was to tell me to find the part on Ebat and bring it to them to fix free of charge.No thank you. I bought a car trusting I could get a reliable vehicle. You guys got $7.5k cashier check in hand you didnt delay in cashing, my dudes. What did I get? A lemon with almost $2k repair bills ALREADY and who knows what else at this rate. Oh and today is September 15th. Ive now had the car only 12 days and put less than 200 miles on it.Update: another $1k into it.Save your money, folks.

I got suggested by my Sister in law. She even gave me a quota given by The Owner. She said they are amazing also she have found this so far so good that she never experienced before. So without any further delay i visited them. My experience with the Owner was actually a very pleasant one. I searched for the parts online I needed. Found that they have all 4 pieces that I needed, and at reasonable prices. I called in advance to make sure they still have them. The Owner answered the phone. He was very courteous and professional. He verified that the parts were still available, and even sent me pictures, so I could see the condition of the parts, because I didnt want to drive 260 miles round trip for nothing. I called back and told them I was on my way, and could they begin removing the parts off the vehicle. And thats what they did. Other than the drive from this far away, which was very worth it, everything was easy, and went exactly as planned. That is kind of unusual these days. I would use Desert Auto Dealer again, and would recommend them to anybody. Those people who expect red carpet service from a wrecking yard, and gave bad reviews should go to the dealer. Thanks man, and the team for a job well done!!!

They have a vast range of cars to chose from so anyone can get the car they want from here. I really liked the way Avi deals with his customer. Hes very friendly and easy to talk to which makes the process of chosing and buying much more smoother than your regular car salesman. He helped me narrow down his gallery of cars from my choice. I got my car from him. And Im satisfied with the car right now. I highly recommend them.

I had an absolutely amazing experience purchasing a car here...and wanted to share. I would not hesitate to shop and buy here again. Everything is legitimate and they truly just want you to get the car you want. I went in with my daughter and met Sunny and his wife, and they basically treated us like family. Helpful, giving, no pressure, just happy to help and make sure we were well taken care of.I didnt buy on day one...no pressure there. Came back the next day and I wanted to test drive...car was waiting and no problem to drive it. It was a pre-owned car so I asked if I could take it for a third party inspection...again, no problem there!Sunny was easy and great and just wanted me to be happy. And everything he said he would do in the deal for the price he did. No questions asked. No games. He loves cars and wants you to love your car.I wanted to finance the purchase and was concerned about getting the best rate and being treated well...I usually shop at car name dealerships, like Mercedes or BMW dealers, etc, so didnt know what to expect when it came to doing the actual financing/paperwork... But when it was time...I was so excited to see don there managing the finance department, who is a well known and trusted finance manager and car dealership manager in the Desert....who had processed other financing deals for me in the past, such as at Infiniti, etc. So, I was so happy to see him there and knew Id get the best rate and no funny business. He is a 100% stand up guy with solid reputation and you are in the best hands letting Mike manage the financing and paperwork.So bottom line, if theyve got the car you like, go in and test drive and enjoy! Youll be well taken care of and if you need anything or have any concerns about the car, just ask Avi and hell do whatever he can to answer your questions and help. I actually saw him do this with many customers, not just me. Really great experience. thank you

I stopped in to see a car they had advertised. It wasnt yet available. But within a minute I was surrounded by no less than three very pushy salesmen. I have rented several cars over the last few months to narrow down the field Im looking through. One salesman tried pushing a model that I had already rented, and decided wouldnt work for me. He actually argued with me, trying to tell me why I should want it instead of the car I had decided on. I tried to explain why that car wouldnt work for me, only to be interrupted with contradictions. I couldnt get out of there fast enough.

The entire team have always gone above and beyond. They are honest, friendly, and we can always depend on them to give us great service. During our most recent service, my husband was unable to take me to the shop so I could pick up my car for medical reasons. They asked if everything was okay and offered to bring my car to me so I didnt have to ride my bike the short distance to the shop! They are definitely one of the best shops around!

As an out of town buyer I was impressed by Avis willingness to work with my travel schedule and his honesty in keeping his word to not let someone buy it out from under me. He allowed me ample drive and inspection time and followed through on his end of our agreements and as a result I completed this purchase and parted as an extremely happy customer. I expect to do more business with these guys in the future and would be happy to refer my friends in the desert.

Prior to buying a 2011 Subaru Forester from Desert Auto, I responded to a craigslist ad and flew into LA to buy a car. Unfortunately it turned out to be a scam. The flight was a one way ticket and I had a rental car for a day. Avi stayed about 3 hours past closing on a Saturday night to help me get a car to go home. I was very impressed by their flexibility! Unfortunately I had some car trouble about 8 days later. Although Avi didn’t have to help me, he provided $2,000 to help make things right. I am very grateful!!

A terrific car buying experience. This little place is really the jewel of the desert when it comes to buying used cars. I dont write a lot of reviews however this place really deserves tons of kudos for the exceptional job they do working with their clientèle. Normally buying a used car is a hair pulling experience but these guys made the process so simple. Integrity is not usually a word used to describe used car salesmen but this little shop deserves it. Integrity with a capital I. Thanks Avi for treating us with such respect and courtesy. I would highly recommend this place for anybody looking to get a great deal and service on a used car here in the Valley. Thanks.

This is the place to go for great used cars. I drove all the way from Arizona to buy a car they were advertising on the internet. The car was even better than they described and everyone there was great. They went out of their way for me because they knew I was driving so far to get there. They helped me out with a rental car and gave me rides to and from the rental agency. They even texted me to make sure I had a safe drive home. I have never had such a great experience buying a used car. Desert Auto Dealer was worth the ride and is the only place I will ever go for a used car.

Dealership did a great job working with me on buying a 2011 BMW 750I. Only issue is always check out the top five issues with whatever vehicle you want to purchase to find out what issue they have and then make sure you ask the dealership if those issues are with this vehicle youre purchasing. BMW 750s are known for consuming oil and this one burns a quart every 300 miles. Did they know about the issue and didnt tell me? Dont know, but I should have done my due diligence to find out such issues before purchasing. Still a great place to buy a vehicle!

I bought a 20011 ford F250 XLT and had an amazing buying experience! As a woman in her 20s, it can be a very intimidating process to buy a car from a dealer. However, I have nothing but good things to say about my process with DESERT AUTO DEALER . Avi, the owner, was very accommodating and trustworthy. As an out-of-state buyer, I was weary of how the transition was going to play out to get the registration and title taken care of, but it couldnt have been a smoother process thanks to Dave. I would definitely recommend this dealer to family or friends looking for a reliable used car from a dealer who is truly honest and helpful!

Never made it in.If you happen to find yourself here as a result of craigslist searches DO NOT waste your time. They dont deal with bad credit like the post stated, just move on to the next post about a 1100 dollar camry with lifter noise and save the 5 minutes.Plus side: they were very honest and direct in telling me no. They did not waste my time or bring me in to apply for a loan they knew they wouldnt shoulder, and I appreciate that.I went with three stars because I think its a bit silly that they wont finance when i have 24.5 percent down and proof of net income in excess of three times the monthly payment.

Buying a car, new or used, can be a difficult and stressful process. Most auto salespeople I have encountered didnt care about me as a person.Avi kindly made us an appointment on a Sunday so my daughter could check out a couple of cars we had seen on their website. He wasnt in the least bit pushy. My daughter liked one of the cars and snap! an hour later she was driving out of there and on her way to San Diego. The car was fairly and affordably priced and there are only a few minor things wrong with it which is surprising for a 9 year old vehicle. We are more than delighted and definitely will consider buying from them again. I trust them, which is saying a lot! Thank you Avi

I always get nervous going into car dealerships thinking I would be pressured into unnecessary deals. However, my experience with Desert Auto Dealer was astounding. I had found a vehicle I was interested online and at first I was hesitant because it looked like a small dealership and worried about how reputable they were. I was contacted by the internet saler. The Owner who answered my question about the vehicle and backed it up with the vehicle info. I decided to make an appointment just to see the car since his communication through email was pleasant and reassuring. The next day, I went in and met with him. He was awesome, charismatic and very helpful. He showed me the vehicle and I fell in love with it. When we sat down and did the numbers, at first I did not know how their payment method. He worked with me and talked about how we can make this work. However, it wasnt going to where I wanted it to be. He was patient and not pushy, I was about to leave empty handed until He introd

Make sure you get a full inspection of your vehicle prior to purchasing they sold us a car that needs an engine replacement and didn’t inform us about it when we asked about the condition of the car and now they refuse to do anything to help resolve the issue!!!

I bought used car today. My salesman Avi was amazing. He got things moving quick so I didn’t spend all day there. I told him what I was looking for he made his recommendation and that’s what I drove off with! I love my new GMC Acadia. Thank You Avi.

Had a great experience here. They sales people are attentive, and not overly pushy. They want to make the sale but also want you to have satisfaction with the experience. Avi helped us explore different models and he tries to understand you as a customer to not waste your time and quickly find what you need. The managers here give very aggressive discounts and negotiating was a very reasonable and respectful process. Avi was a big help with many administrative issues. I highly recommend putting this dealership on your list as you are hunting for cars. Great staff and great deals to be had here.

Avi was very helpful and the entire buying process was stress free with no pressure. I took the car on a road trip immediately after purchasing with no problem. I would recommend Desert Auto Dealer to anyone looking to buy a car.

To make a long story short, I purchased a Nissan Xterra from Desert Auto Dealer as a tertiary vehicle and it turned out to be a total lemon that cost more to repair than I paid for the car. The first time I actually drove the car after bringing it home, the check engine light turned on and it turned out that the car had massive transmission and other issues. Furthermore, I found out that instead of fixing the issue that made the check airbag light turn on, which was a part of our verbal pre-purchase agreement and which he swore hed fix because it was a safety issue, Avi just had it reset.When I went to tell Avi, he told me that because I bought the car as is he didnt have to fix the car, take it back, or do anything for me. If you look past all the glowing five star reviews from people who have mostly only ever reviewed Desert Auto Dealer on Google and on Yelp (under Desert Import Export) there are other reviews that mirror mine. If you decide to buy from these guys, a mobile mechanic (like I hired) is not enough. Make sure to take it to a mechanic and pay for a full diagnostic. It will cost you a few hundred dollars but it may save you from the type of major bills some of their other customers (including myself) had to pay to fix a highly problematic car.

I recently bought my BMW from Desert Auto Dealer and it was the easiest sales transaction Ive ever conducted. Avi was knowledgeable and courteous and I was given a very fair price on the car; all paperwork was taken care of through his staff; never had to go to DMV. I will refer all my friends here because you do not get the usual B.S. of car lot salesmen. Thank You Avi.

I bought the car. They were easy to deal with, had a decent facility and negotiated reasonably. I am now in the process of executing sale documents and all is going well. They agreed to make some minor repairs that I requested.
