I flew out to Cali to buy a 2005 S2k from Southern California Auto Sales in Jan, 2012. I get to the dealership and after a long flight and they tried to switch the price on me. I looked at the car and it was definately not as described and the employees there seemed very shady. The ad(which I still have) said the " car was "clean as the day it was purchased new from the dealership", which it wasn't!!!! The roof had holes in it and the car had a few dents. When I opened the hood, I noticed the washer fluid resavoir was removed, which in my mind I thought the car was raced and someone wanted to save a few pounds of weight. Also, the 17" AP2 wheels were switched out to 16" AP1 wheels and the alignment was all jacked up. I brought all this up to the sales manager, Mike. I left the car there for them to fix it. I came back 2 days later and they seemed to have fixed everything except the wheels. I got a good price, so I took the car. When I got the car to Denver, I noticed a small amount of fluid in my garage. I took it to the Honda dealership and they told me there was a crack in the oil pan. I immediately called Mike at SCKars and he told me I had to take it back to Cali(1100 miles away) so that their mechanic can look at it. I fixed it out of my own pocket and not 2 weeks later the clutch, flywheel, and motor died. I contacted Mike again and he basiccally told me tough sh*t. I'm in the process suing them. This place sells about 5 S2k's a month, so don't get ripped off by these guys. I'm flying out to Cali soon and I will be standing outside the dealership in a lemmon costume with a sign letting people know that these guys rip people off. If you Google them, like I should've, you'll see similar reviews of these guys. BUYER BEWARE!!!!!!!

Ouch, you got burned. Per reading their reviews, they advertise cars they don’t have, so I doubt they sell that many 2sk’s per month.

I’d be sure to contact the local BBB. Unless they sold it with a written warranty, you purchased it as-is.

Do you know what is wrong with the engine?

Thats painful to see! Throw integra seats, civic steering wheel/air bag, civic shift knob and then sell it with out telling the buyer? I am going to email and pretend I am interested...

This dealer is local to me. I believe they have two locations... one in Stanton and one in Fullerton. If anyone has been looking for an S2000 in socal, you're guaranteed to find 70% of the sales ad on craigslist and autotrader are from SCKars.

They're the shadiest of the shady.

DO NOT BUY FROM THEM!!!

I'm disgusted that people still have to ask ... there's a new post about them once a month which makes me go

I found them on CL. They had 6 S2k's on the lot and one blue CR broke down in the back. I bought at the Fullerton location. I'm putting ads on CL telling people not to buy from them. My S2k won't stay on and dies after 5 min of driving. The oil turned black after 2 weeks. My shop did a oil analysis and said there was copper in the oil. I'm not that knowledgable about cars, so I don't know what it means. Please help me get the word out and put these a$$holes out of business!!

Thanks guys

I can't stand SHADY A$$ people. I suppose we all can start by posting bad reviews about this place in all car forums, YELP, FB, etc.. This people needs to be shut down.

Holy F***!!!!!! 15499 for a MY05 with 95k miles! And with seats that are worth 2 dollars and a steering wheel from the early 90's. And why does it seem that most of their ap2's have ap1 wheels?
