I had an awesome experience with Charly, who owns the place. I am mildly up on cars (and people), enough to know when I'm getting ripped off. I think. Charly was awesome. When I showed up to First Foreign, Charly made sure he dropped what he was doing to come deal with me personally. He spent a few minutes going over the car with me, and made sure he understood everything I was having trouble with before he let me go. The next day, he called with a list of fix-it opportunities, and we made a plan on what we were going to work on. He did an awesome job of being consultative, rather than selling--he gave it to me straight, and I was the boss of what we actually worked on. He then made sure to give me price estimates on everything, spelling out parts & labor costs. He made sure I knew about all my options (like with tires, I could pick between the more expensive factory tires and a less expensive after-market brand. We talked about my driving pattern, and he suggested I go for the less expensive option). He gave me a day estimate and stuck to it. The price was awesomely reasonable for all the work that was done (he even took care of a few quirks for free). I picked up the car during the weekend, and Charly made sure to talk to me on Monday about what was done, what he thinks is left to do, and what to do going forward into the future (how/where to sell this car and get a different one, when it's time to move on). He did an awesome job building a relationship with me--I'll be a customer as long as I'm within driving distance. By the way--the car drives like butter. I never thought it would drive so well.

STAY AWAY! Huge part $ markup, questionable work, and Nickle and Dime central. Let me start by saying I was refereed here by a friend who has his work done here and always gets a good deal because he knows an owner. I made an assumption that his relationship with the owner would at least keep me from getting totally screwed on the work that was done. After I saw the bill I was shocked. I told my friend and he said he would talk to the owner about it. Unfortunately the owners response was that my 2007 Pontiac Grand Prix was not easy to work on and he thought the price was fair. The following is a breakdown of the bill based on the work done. You be the judge if you think it sounds fair. 4 New Brake Rotors: $330. (Local Auto store price:$150, and no, they did not install 'high end or gold plated rotors' on my car) Brake Cleaner/Degreaser: $4.73 (You can get a full can of the stuff for this price or less, this is one example of the nickle and dime job) Labor 1 hour ($97.59): One of the few reasonable estimates/charges I found on the bill. Although the cost may seem high the national average in 2009 that mechanics made was about $45 so I don't believe this charge to be outrageous. 6 Spark Plugs: $80 (Local Auto store price:$42 prices on spark plugs range so the actual spark plugs they installed could have actually cost less) Labor 2 hours: This labor charge is ridiculous. Search for an image of a 2007 Grand Prix engine. You will find the 6 plugs are nicely aligned and couldn't be in a more accessible location. 2 hours to change 6 spark plugs tells me they don't know what they are doing. Or this is another excessive charge. AC Expansion Valve: $88 (Local Auto store price:$44-68 depending on brand) R134A refrigerant: $46 (Not sure how much of a mark up this is but based on the other prices I'm guessing its over 100%) Labor: 1.9 hours: This was for: AC system test heating and air conditioning, diagnose/test includes: partial charge, pressure a

I will never go to this gas station again. The gas attendant was very rude and very slow. I believe his name is Richard. I hope he is not the owner.i hope the owner/owners let this employee go they will loose a ton of buisness due to this attendant.

It was my first time purchasing a car and I decided to get a used one so that I can save. AutoDrive1 really helped me in choosing the one that I want and need. They have their own inventory of pre-owned vehicles (cars, SUVs, trucks) that their customers can choose from. It was really easy getting a car with AutoDrive1!

Do NOT go here. Scott rips people off. I stopped going to him after I was told by two seperate mechanics on two seperate occassions that I was over-charged. The first by at least $400, the second time at least $700. I had the final straw when I left my car with him for almost TWO WEEKS and he still had not looked at it! I have been asking friends for rides to work and every time I ask this guy he says "I've been busy". When I asked what's wrong with it he said HE DOESN"T KNOW. That is proof that he didn't bother to look at my car at all! THIS GUY WILL RIP YOU OFF AND CHARGE FOR LABOR WHEN YOUR CAR IS SITTING IN HIS LOT. HE DOESN'T CARE ABOUT HIS CUSTOMERS HE CARES ABOUT MAKING MONEY AND THAT IS SHOWN BY HIS LACK OF CONSIDERATION IN COMPLETING HIS WORK IN A TIMELY MANNER. I understand he's busy, but if you're so busy you cant be bothered to look at my car for over a week and a half then TELL ME TO GO ELSEWHERE!! Seriously, I couldn't be more angry and upset with the lack of consideration and poor treatment at this horrible mechanic. HE IS THE WORST MECHANIC!!! DONT GO THERE!! I've had honda's my whole life and I will never return. BEWARE OF THIS CRAP HOLE SHOP!!!

Chris you should not be in the business of selling cars you are a rip off artist and a sleaze taking advantage of a elderly woman that was interested in a car you had first off the amount of money you wanted for holding the car you only needed about $200 to hold it for her and you where taking half of the money that you were selling the car for then you talked to her son on the phone that wanted to go see the car with his mom to make sure it was a fair price and there was no major problems and you said no problem and she had the cash to buy the car that day if everything was good. So when they went there to see the car you already sold it and didn't bother calling her to let her know it was sold who does business like that but scum like you sir stay away from this business have no idea how many people he has done this too KARMA BUDDY!!

DO NOT BUY A CAR FROM THIS COMPANY! I bought a 2004 Lincoln Aviator off these guys. It took over a week to get the car due to their lack of urgency! They took my trade in for my 02 Chrysler 300 and left me without a car for 11 days!!!! Everyday I would call and they would say it will be ready this afternoon. Finally I get the car, the mirror is still broken, I still don't have the center caps I was promised by the owner and staff, and the center console is still held shut with Velcro. It was written in my Bill of Sale that these items must be replaced, it has been five weeks and I have been getting the run around. After talking with a few people, this seems to be the common theme with these guys. They will not honor the Bill of Sale that I singed in June. They have done everything possible and made every excuse why they have not delivered what was promised in the Bill of Sale.
