This dealership is a lemon lot. My husband bought a car from here and two weeks later the transmission failed. The cars are sold AS IS, so do not expect any assistance from the dealership if something goes wrong with your purchase, even if it s within the first month. The warranties offered are practically useless, they will offer to pay for the cheapest repair possible; if you want anything other than that (a better quality option) be prepared to pay at least 75-80% out of your own pocket. Lucas is a polite scammer, beware of this whole establishment.

Please beware of this dealership. It is a LEMON LOT. All cars are sold AS IS and the warranties that are provided to make you feel protected really don t cover anything ESPECIALLY if you want the best quality for the part you re replacing.We bought a car from here and two weeks later the transmission failed. The dealership was no help and said they drove the car and it was fine. Lucas lied to me stating he drove the car for a year on the phone. When I arrived to test drive the car it appeared it had been sitting for a quite some time I pointed that out and he then stated he had been driving it for the past month.He stated that s why you purchased a warranty .In VA there is no return policy, so you re basically stuck with a big bill or no car. It s unfortunate places like this stay in business and continue to get over on people. Please think twice before visiting this place.

Lucas was super nice and respectful, made sure everything in the car worked perfectly fine and had no issue explaining and answering any questions I had about the car. Everything was handled for me and any issues that came up were immediately reported to me and handled efficiently. Highly Recommend

Lucas was great. He made sure we were well informed and helped us choose the best warranty option. Good customer service and fast without feeling rushed.

Do not buy from this man he sells lemons and if its any issue with the vehicle he does not like to refund. He sold me a Mercedes with a cracked windshield body damage and a cracked radiator. He treated me like trash and made me beg for my money back and would not give me a receipt for my refund.

I live in Southern Illinois and work overseas.Michael still made it very easy to buy the car , he responded with great timing and even helped with shipping the car. It only took a day coming from VA.From my experience I'd recommend his dealership!

We live in Washington State and my husband found a beautiful Prius V5 online in Arlington VA. He spoke with the owner (Loukas) several times. Loukas sent additional photos of the car and we were satisfied enough to fly my husband to Virginia to look at the vehicle. It was in very good shape, He paid for it and drove it back to our home in Washington State without any problem. The car drove beautifully even through snow storms. Everything we were told about the car was accurate, the price was reasonable and we are happy to have it. We highly recommend this dealership. They specialize in hybrid cars and we found them to be service and customer oriented. We are very pleased customers.

Horrible, drove from Baltimore to Virginia too look at a car we were pre approved for. When ee arrived the man tried too add an additional 1,000$ too the price that was listed, after confronting him about it he then said he was closed and couldn't help us. I was like wow this was insane, do not waste your time or money. Find a different place too get a car, these guy's are looking for people too scam!!!!!

Really disappointed in how this car lot handles business and potential customers. Looking at their $25,000 Lexus suv, and asked for some pictures of the underneath and a video of it running. I live over 3 hours away and was refused. Shady much? Especially when this vehicle is from Pennsylvania and Maryland. STAY AWAY!

I had a very good experience with this dealership. Both employees I dealt with were knowledgeable and pleasant. The one issue that I was not happy about is the fact that there was only one key for the vehicle I purchased. Other than that the vehicle was sold under price and in excellent condition. 2004 Jaguar xj8. Average to low mileage for its age. So far so good 3 weeks after purchase. Thumbs up !!!

Bought an 05 F250, after another buyer turned down the truck for listed issues wrong with it, when the dealer declined to have them fixed at a loss for his business. After getting called back that the sale fell through, the dealer worked with me to come get the truck, as is, after business hours. His employees even stayed an extra half hour after me and a mechanic friend of mine went over the truck. Minus the listed issues, nothing else came up until I discovered a rust hole on the underneath drivers side cab corner. So, I called the owner and he issued me a refund check to help with repair costs. Rarely do you come across used car dealers that are up front about the issues concerning the cars they are selling. What's even rarer than that, is one that'll give a refund check for issues that we're discovered upon pick up of the vehicle. The owner was up front and kept his word. His employees were friendly and patient. I got the truck I wanted, knew what was wrong with it and got it for a very decent price. Very satisfied customer.

While many dealerships will mislead you, this one will outright lie. They leave vehicle postings up on AutoTrader and other websites of cars that have sold. I called for availability of a vehicle that I heard from a friend had sold; I called Car World and the rep said it was still available. This was a bald-faced lie.They pulled the same scam on my friend, who drove hours to see a car that was no longer there. They said that he "just missed it," it had sold while he was driving up.My friend called 2 minutes AFTER I called, and the rep confirmed the car was sold. They'll give different answers to different people, and lie just to get you in the door. I've dealt with dozens of awful car dealerships before, but this is likely the worst. They should be reported for fraud. Listen to the other reviews and do not support this business.Also, note that virtually all of their 5-star reviews come from people with only one review. If you're not suspicious, you should be.

DO NOT BUY VEHICLE HERE. THEY'RE LIERS AND SCAMMER. EVERY VHEICLE HAS A "AS IS" SIGN ON AND THAT SHOULD TELL YOU SOMETHING....These guys are very nasty, the owner was constantly cursing and using vulgar language while i had my 15 year old son standing next to me. I tried to negiotate, but these won't come down a penny (Which i didn't mind if they were telling me the truth about the vehicle(s)). Here what i got. 1st-Went there they were friendly time, 2nd time kind of rude, 3rd time very rude (I guess they were thinking i wasn't going to buy a vehicle), and 4th time i went there with a check and to buy Mercendes Benz Gl350. The salesman guy was changing tire on another vehcile was no rush to help me; he said something in spanish to one of his buddy and his buddy went to the vehicle that i was going to purchse, i followed him and saw him pulling out a vehicle scanner from the vehicle. I asked what was that about, he stated it was to make sure there were no issues with the vehcile (i believed him). I was going to sign the contract, but my head was kept on thinking and wasn't sure so i went back to the vehicle and started the vehcile and long behold they vehicle had "check engine" ligh on. I went back to the sale-man and told him about the issues. He simply smile and said "what, the vehcile has a engine ligh on"? i told him that he was F$%K lier and he doesn't deserve my hard earned money. He was like i didn't know "blah, blah, blah".

I wouldn t even give them one star but you have to . We offered the gentleman on Facebook a price and he asked where I came up with that offer . Clearly that s all I have to spend and wanted to know if you would come down on the price . Not only was he rude to me he was rude to my fianc� about it . The car has cosmetic damage to the interior and to the front bumper . In my opinion running a company you should not be rude . He simply could have said yes or no. I m sorry I m not in the car business to know what cars are actually worth . I d rather catch an Uber than to give this company my money

A T T E N T I O N : : : : :CAR WORLD IN ARLINGTON VIRGINIA NEEDS TO BE SHUT DOWN IMMEDIATELY.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!THE WORST CAR BUYING EXPERIENCE EVER!!! BEWARE OF THE CON ARTISTS AND SCAMMERS OF THIS FAILED BUSINESS. PRIMARILY THE OWNER OF THIS SLOPPY ESTABLISHMENT. THEY WILL SELL YOU A NON FUNCTIONING VEHICLE AND PASS THEIR OWN INSPECTIONS SO THEY CAN GET THE PIECE OF JUNK CARS THEY HAVE IN THEIR LOT OFF THE LOT. MY CAR LASTED 4 DAYS AND THEN CUTT OFF ON ME WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. THEY DIDN'T EVEN OFFER TO COVER AT LEAST THE COST OF THE PARTS THAT WERE NEEDED FOR THE CAR TO RUN AGAIN. THEY GAVE ME AN OLD OUT DATED CAR FAX REPORT THAT WAS NOT UP TO DATE OF THE VEHICLES TRUE VALUE. THE ONE STAR IS FOR HOW THEY CLEAN THE CARS VERY WELL. AND THAT IS ALL. EVERYTHING ELSE WILL BE A HORROR STORY AND NO STARS. DO BUSINESS WITH THEM AT YOUR OWN RISK. AFTER THEY SELL YOU ONE OF THEIR AS IS LEMON VEHICLES THEY WILL GLADLY ACT AS IF THEY DO NOT HAVE ANY IDEA WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT AND NO SOLUTIONS TO HELP. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THEM TO ANYONE. THIS COMPANY NEEDS TO BE STOPPED FOR WHAT THEY ARE DOING TO PEOPLE. THE MAINTENANCE COSTS WERE TOTALING UP TO THE PRICE THEY CHARGED ME FOR THE VEHICLE.- MY BEST-rMd
