Customer Feedback Summary for New City Auto

Customers consistently highlight transparent, low‑pressure sales led by Lawrence, noting clear pricing, straightforward fees, and the freedom to inspect and test‑drive without pressure. Many report smooth purchases and reliable ownership afterward, with several praising prompt communication, delivery help, and small courtesies like fuel or batteries before pickup. Another recurring theme is perceived integrity: buyers mention promises being kept and a no add‑on approach that feels different from larger dealers. Criticism appears around paperwork follow‑through and post‑sale issues: a few reviews cite delayed or missing titles/plates and concerns about undisclosed condition or maintenance, urging basic service before sale. Overall sentiment is strongly positive about the personal, upfront experience, with caution to verify documentation and vehicle condition at purchase.

    Scheduled an appointment with Lawrence and he pulled out the car to let me look at it. I didn’t feel pressured at all and the process was very transparent. When on the test drive I realized I was a lot more rusty with driving stick than I anticipated. Lawrence was very understanding and offered to have it delivered. I told him I’d think about it and the next day decided to buy the car after seeing all my options. Finalized the transaction over the phone and had it delivered to my address. Car has been overall pretty reliable. Spent just around $500 in parts(alternator, battery, crankshaft position censor etc) which I accounted for and is expected with older cars. CPC was covered under warranty too but I didn’t want to drive back down to South El Monte. Pretty smooth experience for my first car purchase. Update: 10k miles later I had to do some more repairs. Wheel bearing needed to be replaced and I guess the previous owner cross threaded the cv axle. Brake caliper pin also failed due to it being over torque. Doing the incorrect torque specs is a common mistake among tree-shade mechanics and since the car came with aftermarket wheels I’m assuming it was owned by a fellow car enthusiast. Other than that it’s just been basic maintenance(brake pads, fluids, oil, tires etc) I’ve done some light modifications too(aftermarket grille, headlights, stubby antenna, led interior lights) Even with its quirks I’m still very happy with my purchase.

    Had the pleasure of speaking with Lawrence about an '02 Mazda Miata today in excellent condition! Unfortunately, it wasn't a good fit for me and I walked away without a new car, but the entire experience at New City Auto was excellent! Lawrence was knowledgeable, personable, and very helpful. After the test-drive, he shot straight with me about price, fees, and the state of the car, offered me everything he could to help me get the car on my terms. I would definitely come back here again and highly recommend Lawrence's services!

    The worst experience ever, 2012 Lexus that he slapped on a 2008 front bumper grill and lights, I had to pay to replace them with the new bumper, he’s acts like a jerk talks like a jerk, cheap crap., stay away from this place, I’m sure not everyone get the same treatment, but what are the odds of it happening to you
