I went in today determined to buy a car at my price point. I had spoken to Brian through offer up and he assured me that they would be able to help me. I rode my bike to the dealer ship and Brian himself said he couldn’t let me leave on the bike. I do feel like I am a bit picky I didn’t want leather I wanted the outside to look appealing. He showed me a couple cars, he let me test drive two cars and I was really stuck on this Ford(a bit out of my price range). Brian heard all my concerns and tried to work with me. Now I am an official owner of this Ford Edge and I couldn’t be happier. Honestly they were all nice and had positive vibes even joked about buying my bike, I would absolutely recommend them for anyone looking for a car.
I took a friend to look for a used car here. I was NOT looking forward to it. Even though I have been purchasing all the vehicles for our family and business for over 40 years, it is one of my least favorite things to do. I was pleasantly surprised. The employee who helped us was Brian Knights. He listened carefully to my friends budget and what she was looking for. They have many many cars to choose from. After driving quite a few cars, Brian suggested what he thought what might be the right choice for her and why. There was never at any time pressure to look at or purchase anything, and even after having spent a lot of time showing us vehicles, he continued to help her decision with again, no pressure. It was a a gratifying experience and a I recommend this place to anyone looking for a car.
THIS IS BY FAR THE BEST DEALERSHIP IVE EVER BEEN TOO! Went to buy a car and they were so nice to my family and I got us a great SUV and I highly recommend them for all car truck and suv purchases! They have a wide variety and fair pricing.
I purchased two BMWs at great prices considering the post Covid price increases found everywhere else. The staff and owner where great and even delivered one of the cars to my home, because I cant drive two cars at once, obviously.
I’ve been here twice and man Brian is awesome. I didn’t get pressured into buying a car and he was honest! That’s the type of customer service that brings customers back. Definitely would recommend and they have nice cars!
We had initially put down $500 to hold a truck for us, and when we pulled into the lot we were told he wish he didnt take the deposit because someone offered $15,000 ( the price we settled on) and he could have had the money Saturday instead of Monday (today). Then he said he was going to get the truck for us from the other lot, came back empty handed and left again and tried to sneak away with jumper cables because the truck was dead. Then after further inspection of the truck there was multiple things wrong that was not listed or discussed beforehand. After we said we would pass on said truck he said that he already lost on it and that we lost as well; saying if we wanted power steering that worked we should go buy a new truck.
Great experience buying a truck from Brian. Laid back and let me make the decision without pushing me one way or another. Before making the 900 mile trip to look at the truck he sent me pictures and video upon request without hesitation. Would definitely do business with them again.
Kyle took the best care of us! He went above & beyond and made sure we got into the car we wanted at a price we could afford. Great selection of nice, dependable cars. The whole staff is friendly and accommodating. They really make you feel like family. When its time for another purchase we will DEFINITELY be back to South Texas American Auto. Kyle said it best I believe in helping people out. 😊👍
I highly recommend this dealership if you’re in the market for a used car. I bought my car about a month and a half ago and I am very happy with my purchase. Brian is attentive and professional. I didn’t feel pressured to make a decision on the spot. Once Brian knew what sort of vehicle and price range I was looking for he presented me with multiple options and the best price he could do for each. The dealership is laid back and all the employees there are very professional which made this purchase easy and stress free. No bs. Thanks
Bought a car from this place about two months back and I am happy with it. I talked with Brian, who is super cool, but all staffs are friendly. The vehicles are fairly priced and they give you the information you need. Brian even took me to a nearby mechanic on my request to get the vehicle inspected in front of me. I would recommend anyone to these fair business people!
I was recently in the market for a vehicle and wanted to go with an auto dealer I could trust. Upon the reading the reviews and seeing South Texas American Autos overall rating on both google and Auto Trader I opted to stop by and see what they had available in their inventory.I initially met Nicole on their lot, and shortly thereafter had the pleasure of meeting Kyle as well. Both Nicole and Kyle were the epitome of professionalism, but also came across in a way that was friendly and reassuring. As much as I hate to generalize and paint with a broad brush - their approach was very much the opposite to that of a typical car salesman or dealership.As I am not very mechanically inclined myself I leaned on Kyle to help walk me through some of the items I wanted to have addressed. I had numerous questions throughout my shopping process, and throughout it all both Nicole and Kyle were incredibly patient, thorough and responsive.Perhaps most important of all - when my shopping experience was concluded, they continued their trend of responsiveness and professionalism. I have been thoroughly impressed by them and their dealership and would highly recommend them to any of my friends or family.
My son purchased a used car today, great price, very clean . They had a great selection!!!! The difference in this lot is Brian and his assistant, easy going, knowledgeable, yet no pressure. This has been the best experience I have ever had at a car lot . I highly recommend this car lot !!!!
Just got a car from these guys. They helped save me so much money. I initially went to look at an suv they had and when I went up to talk to Brian he told me that the gears weren’t catching right and he didn’t want to put me in something that he didn’t trust so we looked around and I ended up finding another car that I really liked. They’re so helpful and understanding with my situation. Definitely recommend!!!!!
My friend recommended this place to me and I’m so glad I came by. Employees were all very nice and professional. Very good selection. They were patient with me and let me test drive a couple cars before I found the one that was perfect for me! Now I have a car for me and my family and got it for less than I thought I would! I couldn’t be happier I came here. Highly recommend.
Purchased a 2003 Honda Accord May 16 and I still haven’t received my title or plates they mentioned it would take 4-6 months and I will be getting paper plates till then which isn’t right I will be going above and beyond for my title and plates I will be getting my lawyer involved. My car was considered totaled sold with no airbags and after driving 300 miles in a month my radiator has been smoking. I know if I don’t get my title and plates I will be suing the company do not get a car from these dealership.
Not a great experience. All vehicles were very dirty, food left inside, soiled upholstery-no attempt to clean. Engine Oil was dirty and no info given on vehicles besides engine is good. We were told to look for a new car if we are going to complain.
Brian is the best Sales man in TXThey blessed me with a vehicle 🙏He went above and beyondWe Love you thx so much
This is my second time buying a car from you guys. It been a pleasure working with you guy. Noah and Brian were helpful as always I got a car that am really satisfied with your dealership and will definitely recommend them.
I brought my car from here and the service from every single person I encountered was beyond excellent. Fare deals I will definitely come back for my next vehicle purchase. If you want to feel like family and not be cheated come to South Texas American Auto.
The people here is very friendly and help when shopping with a car I will most definitely be back Noah was great help and he was every where helping people all around hands on very active guy and friendly
Perfect staff of people that are thinking of an customers satisfaction and most importantly service. I def recommend to any and all.
Rudy and Kyle were amazing, real, extremely helpful and knowledgeable dudes. Cadillac SRX I purchased from them yesterday is beyond sweet, especially for the price they made happen for me. Ive been talking about and recommending these guys to everyone since I drove off the lot. If youre looking, check them out.
Very very good on the price. Very honest about issues on each car. Ask for Noah. Great guy.
Great service from Brian and Kyle. They were very patient as we looked around and test drove different cars. Got a great deal on a nice clean car. I highly recommend this dealership!
I personally had a great experience buying my Acura RDX. Brian was even able to get me picked up (since I drive a semi) from a local truck stop. I appreciate the kindness they showed me. We had good laughs and a great sale. I would go back to them again. Thanks guys!
Bought my first car from here! Really great experience, friendly faces everywhere. They took care of my plates and everything, and even put them on for me.
Love everything bout this place so helpful, I’m now getting my second card with that. All the staff is super helpful and sweet specially Brian who remembered me. 10/10 recommend
Bryan helped me out with a great deal on a vehicleI needed for work! Easy to work with and great offers!
Great customer service. Very helpful in finding me a vehicle that was in my budget. Ask for Brian.
Great customer service. Brian was very easy to communicate with through text and phone calls. I got a very reliable vehicle for a great price, super clean and detailed. They are very upfront about what they are selling. If youre looking for a used vehicle, check them out.
Very helpful quick and easy and they also help out on the prices very good customer service as well.

Con men sale junk cars and lie to you. Dont buy from here!!!!!
Not bad, but not what its made out to be either.
Got two cars here great customer service and good reliable cars if I need another car most definitely coming back here .
I have delt with these people . They are very nice and honest. They are highly recommended.
Great company worked with me nice people ask for Brian
Awesome experience, first rate service. Great staff that totally accommodated me through the process. Pleasantly surprised. Thanks again!
Extremely friendly staff.
Be very careful with this auto sales place they sold me a lemon I paid 2200 cash on a car and within a month the motor blew and when the mechanic was checking it they had said that it was gonna blow anyway cause there was liquid were liquid should have been they had said that that car was way or needed several times and this company lie to me and they told me that the oil leak was just a gasket would judging the gasket and it didnt stop so they knew this car was messed up already and they still proceeded to sell it to me I am a single parent and I live out of town and I do work in San Antonio so near the dependable car and they took my last time knowing said that there were selling me a lemon. And the AC didnt work either. It worked at the moment but because they just put in freon to make it cold for the test drives
Got a great deal for a 2016 Toyota Corolla great service from Brian .
Fair pricing, large inventory, friendly and helpful staff
We’ve bought multiple cars from South Texas American Auto and usually they’ll need some cosmetic love or an oil change, something manageable and for the prices I’d drive a cardboard box if they sold it to me . Kyle is amazing and a very understanding person if there’s ever a problem with a car or payment you can work with him so all in all great place! 🙌🏽
Great people.Went to look at a truck that I ended up buying. Very professional and explained everything very thouroughly. Were more than willing to work with me on a down payment and montly payments.When an issue did arise they went out of their way to rectify the issue and make sure I was happy with the results. Great people and would definitely come back and recommend to any new or experienced buyers. Amazing people and customer service.
Affordable cars, brian helped us super cool guy helped me stay in between my budget. (:
They tried to pay me to give them 4 or 5 star. Hell no. They sell lemons like all the negative reviewers tell you on here. Buyer beware they sell headaches and wallet breakers. I know bought a car on may 5 2020. It had the check engine light on. Brian tried to turn it off but couldnt. It took me almost 3,000 dollars to fix a 1,500 dollars car. Keep driving and dont shop at this car lot. You cant buy my vote on Google.
I was afraid to buy a car by myself. But they made the whole experience easy and comfortable. I ended up getting myself a reliable good running car. Thank you South Texas American Auto 🙂
We drove in from out of town to look at a vehicle; Brian was extremely helpful and friendly and we ended up buying the vehicle! Nicole was very timely, efficient and friendly while assisting with finalizing paperwork! Will definitely come back for future needs!
Brian was awesome and listened to all of my concerns. Was looking for a new car for my son, and he was patient as my son looked at multiple cars. Test drove a 2012 vw cc that is extremely clean. Nicole was awesome too! She was able to get me the price I wanted on my trade and the vw. Would definitely buy here again.
Brian helped me out with my car! He was very informative and helpful through my car buying process! He definitely knew what kind of car I was looking for. He sold me my 2008 Hyundai Sonata that I love! Thank you so much! Definitely come by and visit them!
Great customer service From Brian!!!Thanks again will be back forsure..😁
Excel-lant purchase. I will definitely be buying another car. Nicole was an amazing sales person.
Nicole did a great job getting me into my new car. Would highly recommend!
Just bought a van from Brian. Gave us an amazing deal thx Brian
I found 2 cars here for the family, great employees and Nicole was very helpful. Best car buying experience I have ever had!
I work here and I love it. The owner is cool and we always try to help every customer out that comes through
I went in looking for a specific vehicle but while I was waiting for the salesman to free up fell in love with another vehicle. I test drove the car and from the time of payment to the time that I left was under twenty minutes. The guys there are very nice and the vehicles are priced to sell! Take a look for yourself. I’ll definitely be going back once I decide to purchase another vehicle!
THEY HAVE DEPENDABLE CARS FOR UNDER $5K, MY FRIEND WENT AND GOT A RUNNING IN DRIVING CAR FOR UNDER 3K$. GOOD DEAL
Nice people i brought my car from there
Brian helped us out drive out the perfect car for us and our budget! One stop shop got out plates and off to enjoy the car
Brian is the guy you want to talk to. Was able to work a great deal out for the AMG Benz!
I was treated like I was not a serious buyer, and had a level of distrust in my ability to pay for the vehicle I put a deposit on. Even after showing that a wire transfer to thier bank was deducted from my account they demanded a $100 deposit to hold the car ...once the wire transfer went to thier account there was a noticeable change in attitude! Good selection of decent cars, I think it was chris(light skinned fellow), he was a good salesman and treated without biasness. Btw my transmission went out a week after I bought my car, the check engine light was on. I did get a good deal though about 1/2 the value...if they had treated me better probably 4 stars
If you are looking for a reliable, used vehicle this is the place to go!! They have a varied selection of cars for affordable prices. The people were all so friendly and helpful. I had the pleasure of buying a car from Brian and he was so professional and so kind. Such a great place to go for a used car!
Rude. Not worth the money. Showed and was told repeatedly that they closed at 6. Ok but i drove from Austin to view a vehicle that I possible wanted to buy. So customers should be treated better, especially if they are driving from far. Was mad that I didn’t buy their rattling vehicle with many malfunctions flashing as we test drove it. Cussed loudly and slapped a car as we left because we didn’t buy the trash can of a car.
Got a really good deal on a beater, I was looking for a really cheap car but was nervous about buying from a private party. I saw an ad on OfferUp, so I stopped by and took a look. Kennedy was the guy that helped me out and he was real friendly and honest about the car I was looking at. It was definitely a beater, I would definitely have to throw some money into it, but thats what I was expecting. He told me it needed a few things but did not rush to get me to buy it right away. He wanted to make sure I was making the right choice and was trying to negotiate a good deal. Now they are still Dealers and theyre trying to make the most out of their business. They talked me up a little bit more than the initial offer to cover some of the TTL but it still wouldve been better than buying privately. Overall really happy with the deal, they have a huge inventory for a range of different vehicles. They offered me discounts at a nearby mechanic since my car needed some work. And was just real friendly and made sure I was satisfied. Good bunch of guys doing honest work.
Very helpful, patient and friendly staff. Nice selection of cars, with great prices and they work with you on down payments and monthly payments. I would recommend this place. We talked with Brian but everyone helped out and directed us to the best vehicle at our budget. We got a great deal.
Kyle is the best!!!
Great group of guys..3rd jeep I bought from this spot. Thanks Brian knights/kyle.
I had an appointment yesterday to see a particular car. I emailed for an appointment and we set it up. When I arrived all the way from the other side of town the car was sold. They didnt email me to save me the trip.
Excellence all around dealership!!!! Couldnt be happier with Kennedy Johnson...he was a pleasure deal with!!!!!
LOVE!!!! GOOD CARS, PRICES AND PEOPLE!!
Purchased my daughters first vehicle here today! Very pleasant and helpful, nice selection of vehicles.
I went into this experience with a lot of skepticism and walked away with a car I love and an overall enjoyable experience. Brian was a real joy to be around without compromising professionalism and Nicole was sharp and efficient. At no point did I feel like my time was being wasted or like anyone was trying to sell me. It was genuine and helpful. Pleasantly surprised. Just very pleased! Thank you guys!
South Texas American Very grateful for their customer service and kindness.
Nicole was so amazing and helpful answered and my questions very patient and professional
Junk vehicles I don’t recommend this place at all there not even honest with what the car has they just sell them all defective
Im pretty sure weve never dealt with a staff at a car lot as awesome as these guys! Honest, genuine, personable and just pleasant, all around. My daughter bought a vehicle from them yesterday and its great. Im also talking with them about an SUV I would LOVE to have! If youre looking for a vehicle thats older, clean and reliable, go see these guys!!
Very helpful, wonderful staff, excellent service. Definitely recommend
Wow. Ivan and Kyle really went out of their way and stayed late to help my family out! Will forever be grateful to them! Will definitely buy from them again!!
The customer service is amazing and I just want to say I did enjoy my experience there. However I did post my review too quickly because my car started messing up in June so 6 no after purchase. I did get a great price but I also wound up putting another 2,000 into the car maintenance by September and still had it completed breakdown and lost it something was wrong with the engine I had no idea it was a salvage title which is my bad for not checking but damn in my opinion just be cautious like any other used lot
This is a great place to buy a car. The people are friendly they really work with you!
Bought a good running bmw for a hell of a deal. They got what your looking for. I definitely recommend
Bought a car from here a month or so ago and drove it for about a week before I had to get it fixed and no matter how many issues are dealt with another one pops up, there are tons of issues with the car I was not made aware of and they told me there was no transmission issues. They lied. 0/10 was sold a straight up lemon, if youre looking to buy a used car Id look elsewhere or you risk getting ripped off.
As far as used car sales go this place is okay. I would return
April I was in a car accident. I came to American auto because I saw a 97 dodge. Unfortunately the care of the truck was In poor condition and it has now failed me not once but 5 times since buying it. I wish I knew the history of the truck before buying it but it wasn’t discussed with anyone at South American. They buy auction cars. Not saying all of them are bad but I’ve put into the truck what I paid for it already and it still needs more. And now I’m stuck with no vehicle. I just wish they told me the history
Brian was very patient and helpful. I came here to buy my first car, and was really happy with what I ended up buying. Would highly recommend to anyone wanting a used car.
They are very nice. But I got ripped off really bad on the the key to the doors and the AC. The owner said he would get with a locksmith to help with the keys. To date 8mths later I cant lock my door. After having the car two weeks, I had to pay a locksmith to open the car. Once I had to get in through my sunroof because the door lock issue. 🙁Also, they put freon in knowing the AC would only run 1 day. I left there with my check engine light on which was my fault. But you can blame that on me being a woman and my disabled hubby was with me and knows nothing about cars 😊. Lesson learned....but again they were very nice.
JUNK And prices were way too high
They will try to scam you with the condition of the car. Do not buy from them, and if you do, check car with a michanic. Car purchased had lots of hidden damage
Brian was super cool and honest. I got a great deal and I’m happy with my purchase. Thanks y’all.
They helped me and my man out picking a nice car out. Reasonable prices! Def. Keeping a look out for more sweet rides!!
