Read the reviews here and decided to call Cash For Cars. Spoke with Tony and he was pleasant & even was already ready to help out w/a registration issue i had with another car! My car was 20 years old and the price Tony gave was generous! It took less than an hour after the initial call, Tony came by, we did the paper work, he handed me the cash and that's all it was to it. Real good people and extremely pleasant and easy to work with. I highly recommend calling Tony for this!

My 14 year old car finally gave in and I didn't want to put any more $ into her. I called cash for cars and spoke to Tony he happened to be in my area and said he could be at my house in approximately 10 minutes. He arrived with a mask on, looked at my car, made me an offer that I accepted. He was so patient and kind and respectful of social distancing.

We sat in my front yard he explained the paperwork, which was minimal. I signed and he left. Hours later a tow truck came and removed the car. It couldn't have been easier. I was so apprehensive. But thanks to the reviews about Tony I am pleased to say I made the right choice.

Tony was a pleasure to work with! I reached out to several car buyers in the area and some responded but never followed up or were just difficult to communicate with. Tony was lovely - professional, prompt, and punctual. I had some paperwork issues and he was knowledgeable and helpful with what I needed to do. The whole transaction took maybe 10 minutes? Highly recommend anyone in the SD area looking to sell a car for cash!

Tony at Cash for Cars San Diego was terrific and I left a satisfied customer. After deciding to sell my car and checking out the A+ Better Business Bureau San Diego rating, I found Cash for Cars San Diego (619) 464-1717. (Be sure not to get a different website/phone number for similarly named businesses). Within an hour from inquiry to sale, Tony handled my transaction with professionalism, courtesy, honesty, and fairness. I would happily do business with Tony again.

Nope. I have an ancient Dodge Caravan (still runs), but my mechanic informed me that its reached a point of diminishing returns in terms of keeping it on the road. So I called Cash For Cars, explained my situation, told them where I live (easily accessible) and was told I would receive a callback in an hour or so, but I never got the call. Never, ever use any vendor who promises a call back and then doesn't. Also, if you peruse the other yelp reviews you'll find several other folks that experienced the same thing.

Aaron was patient and worked with me and my schedule. He is a very nice guy and made you feel comfortable. He ask me what I wanted for it. I negotiated a price I felt it was worth. He was very detailed and helpful. He answered all my questions and he didn't fell rush. A pleasant experience. I highly recommend this company. The best price with the best experience. Thank you!

I was truly impressed with how easy it was to sell my car. Tony gave me an estimate over the phone, came to my location within a very reasonable amount of time, and paid me in cash on the spot. My car had been parked for months with a dead battery, but he was able to jumpstart it and drive off. The whole process was hassle-free, and it was a big relief to have the car off my hands. Tony was a pleasure to work with, and I'd definitely recommend Cash for Cars.

Thank you Tony for making this process so easy! I had been delaying the inevitable and Tony was able to come help me out at the 11th hour of needing to get rid of my car. He was able to come check out the car shortly after we spoke on the phone and gave us a very fair offer. Thank you again Tony! It was a pleasure doing business with you.

I called in for a quote on my old car. I wasn't looking for top $$ I know my car is old, I just wanted to get rid of it without the hassle of selling it on my own. I called, gave them the information, I was told i would get a call back. I never did get that call back. They should have the common courtesy of calling back with an, "I'm not interested"

Sold my 2006 trailblazer just earlier today and it went great! Fair price and they were extremely accommodating and kind. Locked my keys in my car and they were so nice about waiting while I went to get my spare set. Awesome guys! Very personable. Would definitely recommend to anyone.

I can't believe how easy it was to sell my old shitbox of a car! I am not kidding. This thing had a broken steering wheel, a cracking hole in the roof, and a totally stripped paint job from multiple years at the beach -- and that just barely scratches the surface. The only thing worth a damn on my car was the engine, which had been replaced by the dealer during a recall 35,000 miles ago.

I called up Cash For Cars from my office. They had someone out to my parking lot the same day, who shot me straight and paid me in cash that day. They couldn't have made it any easier, and they even saved me some additional money with the way they performed the transfer. If you have a car that's just not worth enough to list and sell privately, call up Cash For Cars. I won't need to use them anytime soon, but I definitely would again.

Tony is the man! We had a great experience with Cash for Cars. Our Highlander had 325,000+ miles on it. Tony immediately called us back and offered us a fair price. He was easy to work with, very polite and the transaction was seamless. Thanks Yelpers for not leading us wrong!

I wanted to sell my car because it didn't pass smog and the people here were extremely helpful and nice. They got everything done easily and fast. I called them and they came the same day! They gave me the money, took my car, and did all the dmv paperwork for me. Would highly recommend!

I had the pleasure of working with Tony at cash for cars this last week. If you want to sell a car but don't feel like buying a new one or dealing with private parties then I certainly recommend this option. Tony was able to give me more than other dealerships offered, and I wasn't pressured into purchasing a car from his company. Super easy and very friendly person to work with. I enjoyed the service very much.

My wife and I wanted to sell our spare car since it was just sitting on our driveway collecting dust so we decided to sell it without the hassle of private selling such as low ballers and negotiating. After visiting many dealerships including car max, we decided to go to cash for cars. We met with Tony. He is a very nice, honest and straight forward person.

He didn't try to lowball nor pressure us to sell our vehicle. He gave us fair pricing and my wife and I were in and out in 30 minutes. We highly recommend his service. Definitely a 5 star service *****

Great experience selling my old car. Called a couple of times to get information, the gentleman even remembered me from my first call. The car was picked up the same day I called, cash was offered and provided on the spot. Fast, professional, easy to use service. Will use again if needed. I would highly recommend this company to others.

Selling a car to cash for cars was so easy. The people I spoke to and worked with at the company were all so kind, and eager to assist me with the sale of my vehicle. When they appraised my vehicle, they looked it over rather quickly and gave me a solid price. They did not mess around; they are friendly and to the point. They made my life a lot easier, because selling to them was so quick.

If you want your car sold and are looking for an easy way to make that happen, this is the place you've been looking for. Cash for cars worked hard to buy my car and for that I am super happy with the company.

When I wanted to sell my junk car I a few places and everybody gave me a lower price than these guys. They were very responsive and helpful through the whole process and paid me cash for my junk car. If you want to sell your car in San Diego I would highly recommend this company.

I had an excellent time using cash for cars to sell my old car. My vehicle was no longer running and it was going to be very troublesome to sell it to someone. I started researching alternatives to a traditional car sale online and that's what led me to Cash for Cars. The staff members were kind and they got me an offer relatively quick. After that I arranged for an appointment and one of the team members came out and gave me cash for the car. It was very easy and the process went exactly as advertised. In the future I would surely consider selling them another car.

This is a reliable company to deal with if you need to sell your car. From the start I knew I wanted to have my car sold fast and that's actually how I came across Cash for Cars. I was doing some research online, I found them and spoke to someone who worked there. The gentleman I spoke with was very kind, he asked me a couple of questions about my car to gauge the value. Then they gave me a price and paid me. It was very easy and I ended up having my car sold within a couple of hours from calling in. I'm impressed still at how fast it was.

I'm really thrilled that I found this place. The man I spoke with over the phone was helpful and got me an appointment setup. They sent out an appraiser to come see my ford Fusion. I got paid cash for my car and everything went as stated. I'm feeling pretty satisfied that I sold my car and I had to thank them for it.

I found Cash For Cars San Diego online and they were extremely friendly in person and over the phone. At first, I was a little hesitant to contact the company. But, once I spoke with the representative I knew everything would work out well. They gave me a very fair value for my car and made it, the paperwork and every part of the transaction, very simple for me.

Another plus with Cash For Cars San Diego is they are actually a member of the Better Business Bureau (BBB) which is always a good sign for a business. I highly recommend Cash For Cars San Diego.

Thank you guys so much for buying my old car. I had the desire to sell my car quickly so I contacted Cash for Cars. They were extremely helpful and extremely quick. Throughout the duration of the entire car sale the gentleman I worked with was super friendly, and willing to help answer any of my questions. Great company!

Working with Cash for Cars in San Diego was a very pleasing experience. My 2004 saturn Vue was getting towards the point of breaking down. I knew that I should probably get rid of it and that brought me upon cash for cars. So, like many others I was a bit skeptical of using a service like this at first. But the first phone call to the company took that skepticism away.

The staff was amazingly sweet, and super diligent. They scheduled an appointment for me, and helped me sell my car the same day that I called them. Overall I'm pretty shocked at how simplistic the company made selling a car. I do recommend them. Just to let everyone know, while chatting it up with the lady on the phone I found out that they pay cash for junk cars, damaged cars, and running cars. Which means pretty much any car qualifies. Really cool service you've got here.

My wife and I already sold one car to Tony (for a great price), but only a couple of days later our other car broke down out of nowhere, and we were literally on our way to leaving the country. We called Tony and he offered to come to us immediately, gave us several options on what we could do (including rental car suggestions, where to go to get repairs, and he even tested the car himself to confirm the mechanic's diagnosis and see if the car were safe or not to drive across the country). There was no pressure, and he was very nice and efficient. Highly reccomended!

Last Tuesday I sold my non-running vehicle to Cash For Cars. Overall I had an excellent experience. Tony was extremely efficient, helpful and knowledgeable. He managed to purchase my vehicle within an hour of my calling, which was very impressive. The company handled everything for me which made selling my car extremely simple. Tony filled out all the paperwork for the DMV and arranged for the towing of car, since it was not running. as far as the pricing, Tony made me a good offer, which I thought it was fair. Honestly I didn't think anyone else would want to purchase the car since it had some very serious engine damage.

All in all I feel this is the most convenient way to sell a vehicle, I didn't have to deal with any paperwork, the towing was taken care of and most important, I didn't have to spend time trying to sell my car. Personally I recommend this service to anyone.
