Mike Aziz worked with us on a purchase of a Wrangler. No haggle, fair pricing, no pressure and great conversation. One of the best experiences buying a vehicle in a long time. Highly recommend you ask for him by name. Thanks Mike! I'll be back for the Matching green Lambo haha!

Trevor made selling my Jeep super easy. When I posted it to KBB I was flooded with texts and call from dealerships offering me way less than what KBB had estimated. Trevor was up front, honest, and also not pushy. He gave me a fair price, and best of all, the whole process took about 30 min once I arrived at the dealership. Don’t waster your time with Carmax or other dealerships. I almost guarantee you that Phillips will have the best offer.

Worked with Trevor to sell my car and had a great experience. There was no pressure and they made a very fair offer. I will definitely be doing business here again.

Edited: *Had to change from 5 to 3 stars due to the last interaction I had after signing all the paperwork. Selling my leased car here made the process smooth until the very end. They were able to talk with the leasing company, and handle the paperwork. Bianca gave great customer service answering my questions and provided a great experience overall--amazing to work with. There was a situation at the end where they had to go with a lower offer that was discussed prior on the phone with Trevor(before seeing the car) than the price discussed in person after inspecting the car which was very confusing especially after all the paperwork was signed, but besides this, it was a positive experience. Unfortunately, the last situation left me not feeling great leaving, hence the edit.

Sold my car here recently, great experience overall! Trevor was awesome, he is super professional, helpful and patient. He explained everything clearly, gave me a fair offer, and wrapped up the paperwork in no time. Highly recommend this place and Trevor if you want a smooth, no-stress sale.

Jerry has the best energy and sense of humor! He made the whole process so fun and stress free. Not only did he keep me laughing the entire time, but he also helped us sell & purchase my dream car quickly and smoothly ! His positive attitude and great personality really made the experience enjoyable. Highly recommend working with Jerry you won’t regret it!

9/2025- I just finished working with Trevor and his assistant at Phillips Auto in Newport Beach. I walked out a very happy guy with a smile on my face. What a fabulous collection of cars, must be several million dollars inventory, in several price ranges. Great Porsche Carrera collection and a vintage VW Karmann Ghia! You can see their inventory online. I was very impressed with the level of service there and would recommend this dealer to anyone looking to purchase a great used vehicle. The level of Customer service is a 12 out of 10!! Every customer there was smiling and happy, as they drove off in their newly purchased vehicle. And they will give you a good deal on a trade in, too. But I think they specialize in making the customer happy.

I always wanted to purchase a Porsche from here every time I passed by, and finally my dream came true! I had an amazing experience at Phillips Auto! Mike Alibrando was friendly, knowledgeable, patient, and went above and beyond to make sure my first Porsche experience was good. Strongly recommend this place for good customer service and amazing car selections.

I’m leaving this review for Jerry at Phillips Auto. My experience working with him was excellent. I came in to test drive a 2018 Audi SQ5 and the car was exactly as described online. It was immaculate. There was not a scratch, dent, or even a speck of dust on the outside and the interior was just as spotless. The car drives like a dream and I could not be happier. Jerry made the whole process quick and easy. We wrapped everything up in about two and a half hours. He even helped me get insurance lined up and made sure I was able to drive off the lot that same day. He stayed past closing to get everything finalized and worked around my timeline, which I really appreciated. He was professional, friendly, and an absolute pleasure to work with. If you are in the market for a clean and pristine car and want a smooth buying experience, I highly recommend checking these guys out. Five out of five stars.

Bianca is the best! My elderly parents needed to sell their car and she went out of her way to make it as easy as possible. She gave us a fair price, no haggling and was responsive throughout the process. She even came to the house because it is difficult for them to get around. Thank you!!

Sold my Boxster directly to Phillips Auto. Very smooth and reasonable negotiation and quick transaction process with Trevor. Friendly and comfortable place and I’m satisfied with the fair offer.

Trevor was friendly and a total straight shooter. They gave me a great trade in offer for my Corvette. Selling my car to Phillips Auto was a quick and great experience!

I have had an excellent experience with Phillips Auto in Newport Beach. I have called them for information in the past and they’ve been super helpful and today I was able to make a fantastic deal for them to buy my Mercedes. Mike made it so simple and so professional. I will be a customer for life!

I had a great experience selling my car to Phillips Auto in Newport Beach. Trevor was super helpful and transparent throughout the whole process. He always remained in contact with me during the process of selling. When it came time to complete the paperwork, Trevor remained swift and efficient. There was no pressure and was an overall positive experience. I would recommend this dealership.

Trevor was an easy going guy. He worked with me on price to buy my car. Laid out the facts and didn’t dance around his expectations or mine. Easy process and definitely open to business in the future.

Best car buying experience ever! Michael was over the top with shopping the right deal, kept in communication with me, knew what car I would love by my description. I had a trade in that was done so smoothly. All the staff, including Jerry, were great to work with and all had positive attitudes. No pressure sales.

Such a good and seamless process with Phillips Auto. We sold two cars to them and would highly recommend. They were honest, transparent, and buttoned up. We went to Audi first and that was NOT a good experience — so I have a good comparison.

Jerry is the best! For me as a first buyer of Porsche sport car, his explanation was thorough and comprehensive. He actually extended his explanation to sites and restaurants of Newport Beach and Irvine as I am new to the town. Other staffs were also super friendly and welcoming. It was super cozy to wait in the office while processing documents! Satoshi

My experience at Philips Auto was really great and the Sales manager Jerry Fontain were fantastic. I felt comfortable throughout the entire process and makes me very convenient. Suprisingly this dealership is different from the other dealers. Wonderful experience. Good job.

This is a made up review from my previous one below, I was disappointed by their offer for my old car while Carvana bought it for 40% more but…this gentleman named Trevor reached out and tried his best to help out, I really appreciated it and showed me these folks really care for their customers so I give then 5 stars, great customer service! “I went there to try to sell my old car, they were extremely nice and professional which I surely appreciated but their offering didn’t met my expectation so I sold elsewhere for 40% more..”

Trevor was great. We had been talking for a few months and he kept checking in every so often. Never any pressure and when I was ready to sell my car they made it very easy and provided a very competitive price. I would do business with them again!

I had a fantastic car-buying experience with Phillips Auto in Newport Beach. From start to finish, Jerry and the team made the process of buying a fantastic Porsche Boxster smooth, transparent, and enjoyable. Taylor was incredibly knowledgable about the Boxster during the test drive, Mike offered a fair value on my trade-in, and Jerry helped me navigate extended warranty options and financing without pressure. What really stood out was Jerry's patience and professionalism as I worked through some unexpected delays with my bank. He never made me feel rushed and stayed supportive the entire time. Special thanks to Mike, who went above and beyond, meeting me after-hours near my home to personally deliver a few items I had left behind at the showroom. Truly top-tier service. I highly recommend Phillips Auto to anyone looking for a positive car-buying experience.

I’ve dealt with some slimy car salesman in the past that left me wondering just how badly I got screwed on the purchase of the vehicle. Jerry Fontaine at Phillips Auto was definitely not one of them. Very helpful, genuine, and overall easy to work with. He took more time than necessary to make sure everything was done right. I left the dealership feeling good about the deal I got on my 2020 Ford Raptor. I would definitely buy from them again. Thanks!!

First, this review is overdue. Second, I normally do not write reviews but with the service I received at Phillips Auto in Newport Beach, I decided I should share my experience. I was very pleased with the whole experience. From the process of the trade-in of my old vehicle to the purchase of the new (used) vehicle, I was completely satisfied with my purchasing experience. I first made contact with Mike Aziz via email who then followed up with a phone call. I told Mike that it would probably be a couple of days before I could come down to Orange County to check out the vehicle and he set up an appointment. Mike did not hound me with phone calls or text messages about coming to the dealership to view and test drive the vehicle. Mike did follow up the night before to confirm the vehicle was still available and the appointment was set. Upon arriving, Mike was tied up with a walk-in customer. Mike quickly arranged for Jerry Fontaine to assist me with viewing and test driving the vehicle. Jerry was very patient and walked me through the traded in and buying process. Once I made the decision to get the vehicle, the purchasing process was so smooth and painless. It was the best vehicle purchase I have ever had. Thank you,

I sold my Mazda MX-5 Miata to Phillips Auto today and had a great experience. I dealt with Trevor, who was professional, friendly, and made the whole process smooth and easy. Everything was transparent and handled quickly. Whether you're selling or buying a car, I highly recommend checking out Phillips Auto. When I decide to buy a car in the future, I will definitely check with them first. Thanks again, Trevor!

I sold my car here and it was the easiest process. They honored our Kelly Blue Book instant cash offer, it took less than an hour, and the guy who helped us, Trevor, was so great to do business with. He had contagiously positive energy and was so easy to talk to and made me feel really welcome to ask dumb questions. It was my first time selling a car and I felt like I got really lucky having his help. Would highly recommend this place and specifically Trevor’s help.

My first ever review online and it took something special for me to write this review! It was the professionalism and caring of Jerry Fontaine that made my purchase a fast and a smooth transaction! I was very hesitant to buy a car from California being from Washington State. Jerry worked with me way past their closing time of 6 PM and made sure I was satisfied with my purchase. After taking the car for inspection, he did a Freon service for free. I purchased the car and it was shipped and delivered within 9 days of purchase. The car I received blew past all of my expectations, it is a brand new car even though it is 10 years old. I am not sure how to express my gratitude for his service. Words wouldn’t do it justice!

I was very satisfied with my purchasing experience from Phillip's Auto. Mike Aziz was my salesman and his years of experience showed in his care, attentiveness, customer service, and adaptability with outside the box thinking. I highly recommend others purchase from this dealership, and I continue to bring my business to them. I came in from out of state and Mike had me out the office and on the road in half an hour or less. A. SM

Where do I start. Jerry man, thank you for providing the best car buying experience I ever had. He sacrificed so much to get our deal done in less than 6 hours on approved financing! Jerry is funny, a great listener, transparent, and just an absolute vibe to be around. I’ve never had that level of hospitality when buying a car. Proud to be his client!
