Client Experience: Marty O, Pacifica

Share on Facebook


Pacifica resident, Marty, was ready to replace his aging Camry. After talking to his daughter about her experiences with our service, he gave us a call to help find the car he wanted at a great price.

Q. What made you realize it was time for a new car?

A: My 1995 Camry Wagon was rusting away in Pacifica. Washing and waxing were always an uphill battle against the heavy fog we live in. Then, failure to start on wet mornings was making things impossible. Mechanics told me my 196,500-mile wonder was edging toward retirement. I loved the car but its time was slipping away.

Q. How did you choose the Toyota RAV4?

A: I wanted another Toyota because of the brand’s longevity. I needed more height to help my fiancé’s 93-year-old mom and 88-year-old uncle get into the car for trips to the store and doctors and I also needed a car to fit my fixed retirement income. I had heard great things about the RAV4 and I thought it fit exactly what I had in mind.

Q. Why did you decide to use Cartelligent?

A: My daughter, Melissa, had bought three cars in the past from Cartelligent and was totally satisfied. I looked up the website, filled out the questionnaire and was on my way toward a new car.

Q. What did you like best about working with Cartelligent?

A: Everything was super – from the first contact to driving away in my new RAV4, the entire process was easy and convenient. Above all, no trip to a dealer! My agent, Mark McDowell, is intelligent, responsible and caring.

Q. What surprised you about the Cartelligent car buying experience?

A: It was easy and painless – Cartelligent found the perfect car, and saved me time and money. The orientation after the purchase was important and beneficial.

Q. What would you tell a friend about us?

A: Don’t look anywhere else! We’ve already referred five people – six including my insurance advisor.

“I cannot recommend Cartelligent and Ethan Sparrow enough. An excellent experience of buying a new car and selling my old one. So simple. All completed within four days. All of the paperwork simply completed and they were able to make a super deal on the price of my new car. Couldn’t be happier. This is a service that takes the anxiety out of car buying and selling while also saving you money. Hard to beat that!”
