What clients say about Corner3 Garage in Laguna Hills (CA)
From start to finish, I had a great experience here. Nima was incredibly transparent and communicative throughout the entire process—he made sure I understood every step and felt confident in the work being done. His attention to detail and professionalism really stood out.
Steve, the technician who worked on my car, clearly takes pride in his craft. Everything was handled with precision, and you can tell he genuinely cares about the quality of his work.
John, one of the owners, was also very involved and easy to talk to. The whole team gave off a very welcoming and down-to-earth vibe. The shop is well-run, efficient, and you can see why they’re booked out in advance—good work and honest people are always in demand.
Highly recommend Corner3 Garage if you’re looking for quality work and a shop that treats you right.
excellent service and the most honest group of mechanics i have ever met. we will continue driving all the way from north oc so they can keep our cars in great shape!!
Corner3 was fantastic! They treated me like a priority and took care of my car timely and effectively. Just pulling up to their garage speaks volumes about their capabilities based on the vehicles you see both inside and outside the bay area. They are entrusted with some very collectible cars as well as family cars, ranging from older to newer. Both my son and I drive hours for an appointment with Corner3, and it is absolutely worth it.
Kind, knowledgeable, and great people to boot - decided to try an independent shop for the first time instead of a dealership, and they were able to take in my service history, explain which of the Toyota-recommended service items I needed and which I didn't based on the health of my vehicle, and fixed up my vehicle lightning fast! I'm used to having to pay an arm and a leg and wait all day for my car to get its regularly scheduled tune-ups, and they had me in and out in a little over an hour with a bill even smaller than what they quoted me. Extremely capable, great customer service, overall fantastic folks!
I took my Lexus LC 500 here for an inspection and oil change. When I was told they'll be using LIQUI MOLY, I knew this was definitely going to be my shop.
I have been coming to this, amazing, place for years. In my opinion this is the best car repair shop in California.
Mr. Nima and his co-workers, all, go above and beyond. There is plenty of free parking. The customer service is amazing and the prices are amazing! They do a phenomenal job too! I highly recommend this place. Keep up the good work 'Corner3 Garage'. Five out of five stars for everything. Well done!
Thank you!

I discovered this place in 2011 and i haven't been anywhere else since. Nema is very nice and helpful and you can trust him because he doesn't take advantage of you if you don't know anything about mechanics.It is so refreshing to find people that are ethical in this industry because it is so rare nowadays. I have been taken advantage so many times before i found this place. I would say the only downside of this place is that they specialize in particular brands which are Toyota and Nissan but you should call to have a confirmation. I highly recommend this place.
02/28/24 Update. I love this place. I wouldn't go anywhere else. I was there yesterday.
getting pricing and communication was relatively painless. had to wait about a week for a slot to do brakes and coolant. Pricing for brakes and machining rotors was about $260, slightly less than Toyota dealer service mailers for $280; original dealer price for brakes is like $330-380.
Nema was on top for recommendating which services should and shouldn't be done. Ended up not needing a differential gear oil change due to misinformation from my side.
A few demerits: other than the longer wait for a slot, Corner3 only works on Toyota, lexus, and Nissan cars, and only uses OEM parts. The 2016 sienna has the original semi-metallic OEM brake pads part number, an updated nonsqueak oem pn, and a cheaper "ceramic" oem part number, all sold by Toyota. Corner3 wouldn't tell me the part number they were going to use, and it ended up being the original while checking during the vehicle drop-off. If you want flexibility with parts, this dealer doesn't seem to provide that.
Finally, the brake job was recommended by a Toyota dealer who told me I was at less than 3mm left. I had asked Corner3 for the pads to be shown to me after, so upon pickup of the vehicle, was told that the brakes still had 3.5mm left. I probably could have waited another 6 months before a change then, but not communicating that until afterwards was just a minor irksome thing that I think could have made the experience a 5 stars.
Been going to Corner3 for nearly 10 years - you can’t find a more honest, transparent and caring team than Nima and his crew. Always providing guidance and solid advice. From my son’s Subaru (general service) to my 220k Runner (All in Care) - Total Trust in Corner3 Garage!
We have been going to Nima for over 13 years. He has always been very honest, the most knowledgable and his pricing is very fair. I appreciate how he would explain things in clear, simple terms to me (female customer) and at one ocassion he actually took us to see the underside of the car to help me understand the problem. Thank you, Nima!
I would highly recommend Corner 3 Garage to anyone looking for a reliable and honest mechanic. I have been a customer for several years and have always been impressed with the knowledge, service, and integrity of the staff.
Nima, the owner, is always willing to answer my questions in a clear and concise way. He never tries to upsell me on unnecessary repairs, and he always makes sure that I understand the work that needs to be done.
The mechanics at Corner 3 Garage are also very knowledgeable and experienced. They take the time to explain the repairs to me in detail, and they always make sure that the work is done right.
I have never had a bad experience at Corner 3 Garage. I always feel confident that my car is in good hands, and I know that I am getting the best possible service.
They are honest and their communication with me was excellent. I have a Nissan 370Z with a STILLEN supercharger that has too much boost for my engine and it slew out my 4 cylinder. These guys were the only one who helped me fix the car. They were honest and told me I should buy a new engine and didn’t clean me out tying to fix it. Another place said they could fix it but their estimate was more then a used engine and never gave me a choice.
Had my S2K serviced here. They’re fast, convenient and priced competitively. The staff are highly knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. Highly recommended!
Called them to get my OEM spoiler installed on my Honda Civic, and getting an oil change done. Took about 3 hours. I have met Nima and John while waiting for Steve the technician to finish working on my Civic. Nima and John are honestly genuine people that actually care about their customers cars and getting them the best available price. Will come back next time if I need some maintenance work done or something else installed.
We only use a Corner3 for maintaining our Toyota vehicles. Nemo and the staff are awesome and thoroughly communicate all the necessary details we need to make informed decisions on repairs and maintenance. We’ve been able to trust all their recommendations are honest and in our best interest. They give us all the options and don’t push unnecessary maintenance or repairs. They only work with Genuine Toyota parts. As long as we have a Toyota we will always come back for our regular service.
Bought an intake manifold from them online and have yet to hear anything, Emailed and called them but nothing. Do not deal with these people, they're a scam. Hopefully paypal gives me my money back
Perfect place for modified cars. They were extremely helpful to an amateur like myself. I got held up at work and missed my appointment by two hours and they were kind enough to fit me in. Great prices too. Can’t say enough good things about this place.
This is for the online store. I've purchased from Corner3's online store in the past with no issues, but something must be going on because I had the exact same experience as the other, most recent 1-star review where I purchased a clutch kit on 9/30 and received a confirmation email, but since then I have received neither the clutch kit or any kind of communication from the Corner 3 despite emailing them and calling them. I've escalated this via PayPal to try and get a refund, but we'll see.
Not sure what's going on, but buyers beware!
Disclaimer: this is regarding their online webstore corner3motorsports
I purchased a set of front and rear brake pads over a month ago and was emailed saying they were working on the order. I emailed them after a month of no contact asking for an update (they don't have order tracking or past orders available on their site??) and no response. I called their store twice and left messages, no response. I'm currently in the process of a charge back with PayPal due to them ghosting me. Hopefully their garage does good mechanical work because their customer support for their online shop is garbage.
If the store owner sees this and wants to provide some information on my order, please feel free to message me. I've tried contacting every way possible.
EDIT: The store never responded to me or PayPal. PayPal sent my money back due to 0 communication from the seller.
Amazing support and top-notch service. I ordered a racing helmet that was by no fault of Corner3 being discontinued, so they got me the updated helmet in time for my racing event. Made protecting my melon painless and easy. 10/10, will shop again.
Love this shop. Absolute best. They look out for their customers. They typically specialize in Nissan/Infiniti but I take my other cars to them as well because of their honesty.
Genuinely the best people ever. They take awesome care of my BRZ and I can't imagine taking my whip anywhere else. They are great for routine maintenance and use genuine Subaru parts. No cutting corners at corner 3! No b.s. staff is super friendly, knowledgeable and helpful, courteous, etc. Their techs also take pride in their work and it shows. Thanks corner 3 for an amazing experience full of value for the dollar every time. Kudos.
Tried to order some DRFT merch on their website. After a month of no communication I called in to find out that they could not find any stock on the beanie I ordered. I gave it until the end of the week and I called again and found out my order did not ship as yet. I asked the gentleman named John if he could refund me for the beanie and ship out the t-shirts and he apologized and advised me that they will be shipping it out (John did offer to add in free stuff for the inconvenience, but I just wanted the t-shirts). I waited another week (5 total) decided to cancel my order. Pretty disappointed since they have good reviews. I have no beef this business or anything, but I would strongly advise calling first to find out what they have in stock before ordering.
The only shop I trust and go for all my cars. Nima is honest and does a good job in explaining exactly what is going on with your car and what the options are. He will always let you know what is absolutely necessary to fix and what are things to keep an eye on. I’ve recommended a ton of folks for his shop and all have had similar experiences.
I was looking to have some lowering springs installed on my G37 and sent here by Eibach. Good staff, helped me out with a lot of newbie questions I had, car looks & feels great. Recommend.
Great, and trust worthy. I brought my FRS here for it's 60k major service which includes spark plugs. Nima is very knowledgeable, and the customer service is great. If you have any questions about parts, John is also very knowledgeable in road racing
There's many places where I would rather order online from than pick-up in person but this isn't one of those places; I like visiting this place in person. It's has a very friendly and helpful environment and when I ever need parts or special fluids for maintaince on my car I make sure to ask for John. If something isn't in stock he manages to get whatever I need that some other shops won't make the effort to find or have brought it. And John gets things done quickly! Everyone at C3 Garage is great, they're the go-to shop.
Nima is always great at letting us know what parts we need to get the most out of our cars. Great communication, quick service & very fair prices. My husband & I have been going to this shop for at least 5 years. I have a 14 year old Toyota Echo & my husband has a 5 year old Mazda Speed 3, both running in excellent condition due to Corner 3 Garage's great service & advice!
Wonderful experience here for everything from oil change to transmission replacement. The owner is very up front and thorough and explains everything. Very high quality work. He works with your budget to take care of your car. It feels like we're on the same team. I highly recommend this place.
