Is Tustin Lexus a good dealership? Yes, rated 4.6 stars by 3,465 buyers
Yes. Buyers have rated us 4.6 stars across 3,465 Google reviews (Google, 2026), and the praise covers the sales floor, the finance office and the service drive. The strongest proof is the volume. Thousands of buyers have rated us, and 87 in 100 of those reviews are five-star.
Volume alone does not prove much, so the sentences that matter are the ones buyers write about their own deal. In a March 2026 Google review, Debbie P. wrote: “We just bought a new Lexus and Alissa was our amazing sales person. She answered all of our questions gave us excellent service. We also finalized everything with Baron and he walked us through everything was able to get everything we wanted. Gave us an amazing price and a low finance rate. Thank you Tustin Lexus we are super happy with everything!!”
A buyer who has a question answered, a price explained and a finance rate that works is the buyer a dealership wants to keep. That pattern shows up across the reviews, and it is the reason the rating holds.
What do customers say about buying a Lexus at Tustin Lexus?
Buyers describe a sale without pressure, where the price and the steps are explained before the paperwork starts. 33 of our 366 most recent four- and five-star Google reviews describe that low-pressure process. A buyer who is not rushed can compare trims and financing without feeling pushed to decide.
In a July 2026 Google review, Maria G. wrote: “Excellent service! David was very kind and polite! Mr. Marandi respectfully suggested some good deals without pressure! I will definitely make my next car purchase in the same exact place! Highly recommend Tustin Lexus and the personnel!”
Named salespeople come up just as often in praise. 104 of our 366 most recent four- and five-star Google reviews describe a salesperson a buyer thanks by name, which tells a new buyer who will be sitting across the desk. In a May 2026 Google review, Steven C. wrote: “Upfront transparent deal. Great service. This is the easiest new car dealing I ever experienced. Alex Mattes put extra effort to attend and accommodate customer’s need making this car buying experience so much better.”
The complaints in the market point the other way. Of 90 one- and two-star reviews of other Lexus dealers, 22 cite pricing, hidden fees, add-ons or a charge not agreed to, and 3 cite pressure or upselling. Those are the things to check for when you compare dealers, and they are the things our buyers describe as missing from their visit.
Does Tustin Lexus offer clear pricing and fair trade-in values?
We sell new, used and certified pre-owned Lexus vehicles at market pricing, and you get the price and terms on the specific vehicle you choose. Trade-ins are valued with our online appraisal tool, and the value applies toward your purchase.
A trade number you can see before the visit changes the conversation at the desk. In a September 2026 Google review, Daniel A. wrote: “I leased a UX 250h about three years ago, and when it was time to trade it in for another vehicle, I decided to make it extra special by getting my mom an early birthday gift. I called Daniel Oah and arranged an appointment. From the moment I walked in, Daniel greeted me with respect and made the entire process smooth and stress-free. He gave me top value for my trade-ins, and I drove off the lot in a brand-new NX 350h at an amazing price!”
Clear pricing comes up in the sales process on its own. 12 of our 366 most recent four- and five-star Google reviews describe it, and those buyers talk about knowing the number before they sign.
What Lexus models and certified pre-owned inventory does Tustin Lexus carry?
We carry the full Lexus lineup: the UX Hybrid, the NX, RX, TX, GX and LX SUVs, the IS, ES and LC cars, and the all-electric RZ. We also sell used and certified pre-owned Lexus vehicles, so a buyer can compare new and certified options in one store.
Comparing a new Lexus with a certified pre-owned one takes one visit, because both sit in our inventory. A buyer who wants a specific trim and a lower-mileage car can look at both without changing stores.
The car is only half of the ownership story. Our technicians are Lexus factory-trained and certified, and parts can be ordered online and picked up at the store after we call to say the order is ready.
Is Tustin Lexus’s service department worth using?
Yes. Customers praise our service advisors for keeping them updated while the car is in for maintenance, and our technicians are Lexus factory-trained and certified. 17 of our 366 most recent four- and five-star Google reviews describe those service updates, which is the part of a service visit most people remember.
In a July 2026 Google review, Ed M. wrote: “Maintenance service was great. The key to customer satisfaction @ Tustin Lexus was the outstanding job Rick does in scheduling, providing updates and explaining what was accomplished. He made the whole experience worthwhile.”
Booking is simple, too. You can schedule service appointments online on our website, and our service lounge has Wi-Fi, a complimentary car wash and a complimentary café while you wait.
