I recently purchased my first car from CJ motors and I couldn't be happier with the experience! From the moment I walked in, Charbel and his family made me feel welcomed and comfortable, which was really important to me as a first-time buyer. They took the time to understand my needs and budget, and patiently answered all my questions without any pressure. They also went above and beyond to ensure the car was in excellent condition, taking care of all the details to make sure I drove off the lot feeling confident in my purchase.I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable dealership in Massachusetts.

C and J sold us a car for my 20 year old to use. It was in good shape, needed a few tweaks like new speakers for the sound system. The car is in great shape. The owners were lovely people, helpful, honest, and kind through the whole process. They were easy to contact when needed, did the paperwork with no issues, and gave us a kind send off. I would highly recommend them.

Update July 2024: It’s almost two years and this 2012 Camry is still awesome. I put in a new battery and wiper blades recently. That’s all I’ve had to do besides regular oil change. Original review: I had to replace my 19-year-old car and procrastinated because car shopping can be stressful. I searched local listings that led me to CJ Motors. Charbel was so easy to work with! I saw a car I liked and he was thoughtful and accommodating (the car wasn’t even listed for sale yet.) Best of all, there was no nonsense and no pressure. In fact, he handed me the keys and told me to take it to my mechanic for his opinion. (My mechanic said: You found yourself a good car.) I got a beautiful car in great condition and I’m so happy. I’d recommend CJ Motors to anyone who needs a car.

I had a great experience at CJ Motor. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable, helping me find the perfect car within my budget. They had a wide selection of vehicles and transparent pricing with no hidden fees. The buying process was smooth, and they offered helpful financing options and a comprehensive warranty. Highly recommend CJ Motor for their excellent service and great car selection. The dealer was really the best!!

I’m so glad I found this place Because they were friendly, super helpful in assistance. They helped explain things really well since we didn’t know much first about buying the car. I would seriously recommend this place if you’re looking to buy your first car or any…truly the best

I needed a newer SUV and had seen a Honda CRV on their website. We went to check it out and met the nicest people there ~ Charbel, his wife and their daughter. The whole process was easy and I got the SUV I wanted. Financing was easy , Charbel found the best rate for me and I couldn't be happier. I totally recommend checking out CJ Motors for a used car and will send anyone I know there. Thank you Charbel !!!

We have bought two cars here and we couldn’t be happier. Charbel is a wonderful man, fair and caring about the happiness and rightness of each car with each owner. At least twice now he has taken time to look at an issue, like a tail light that wasn’t working and has fixed the problem for us and wouldn’t even accept any payment for the help. We highly recommend CJ Motors! Thank you, Charbel!

Rare find! Fair, honest, transparent and communicative car dealer. No games. Charbel stands behind what he sells. Been looking elsewhere for a dependable, affordable car for 2 years and finally went to him on a referral- he delivered in a couple of weeks. CJ Motors will get our business again and again.

After searching for so many weeks in the North Shore and Boston area, I found CJ Motors Inc. near my home. One of the qualities I admire in a person is honesty. Charbel was very transparent about the parts he changed to the car. He showed me the receipts and answered all my questions. I am very happy with the 2009 Honda Civic that I purchased for my son. I will recommend this dealership to anyone; you will find the car you are looking for. This is the advantage of doing business with a small dealership, they treated me like a person, not just a number. Customer service is wonderful. As a teacher I will rate CJ Motors Inc. "A"

Such a great experience buying a car from C & J Motors! Charbel was so accommodating and professional. I was traveling down from Maine for my many trips to purchase my vehicle and he was so kind and generous, offering by meeting me after hours and even offered to pick me up at the train station! Very nice person and a pleasure to do business with. I even took some business cards with me and will be happy to send business his way, as I truly value that old fashioned customer service that Charbel offers at C&J. A very easy and pleasant car buying experience.

Honest, dependable and not pushy. CJ Motors is by far the best experience I've had purchased all 3 vehicles. Very friendly and honest. They did everything in their power to make sure I was happy with my purchase. I highly recommend CJ Motors. If you want a great vehicle for a great price, from an honest and reliable place who stands behind every single vehicle that leaves their lot, CJ is the place for you!

I had exactly $3000 and there was a car for me at CJs it was a 2006 Nissan Altima, besides some minor repairs over the years I am still driving it these days in 2022 mostly for errands/shopping, back and forth to work which is perfect for me it has passed 4 inspections with little effort, I recommend CJ's he and his staff are nice people.
Karen Maden02 Jan 2022
The man is a legend! Charbel is a forthright and trustworthy salesman with great knowledge in the automotive field. He went above and beyond to accommodate my circumstances to complete what was a secure and friendly purchase. Most importantly, I am happy with my new car and I feel good about the transaction. Thanks CJ Motors.

The guy was super nice (i forgot his name) awsome customer service and very helpfull and all the cars they have on their lot look great ! Best dealer ship i have visited?
Katie09 Jan 2021
Very trustworthy and reliable company... I recently went for an oil change and was told by that company that I needed brake pads and rotors. I call Cj motors to take a look and they put the car on the lift and showed me that they were fine and no work needed to be done. Apprectiate the honesty and recommend them to anyone.
Max Silva04 Dec 2020
Truthful and trustworthy! Buying a car is not always a good experience. It is an awful feeling when you feel like you are being pushed into buying something that may not be right for you and when you feel like you can't trust what you are being told. Buying a care from CJ Motors is like buying a car from family. The gave me great advice and helped us in picking a car that would work for our family and be safe for our teenage driver. Thank you George and Charlie for a truly wonderful car buying experience.
Mike and Judy Foley19 Sep 2020
One of the best dealership I could hope for. Very cooperative and respectful people to do business with. Since it was my first car, they explained the entire process patiently and made it super smooth. Got a Mini Cooper from them. So far it's been very smooth. Will update in coming months on how things go. Would definitely recommend anyone to check this place first, as they will never force you into a purchase and give you the freedom to make your own choice.
G R Ramdas Pillai14 Jun 2020
Best experience buying a used car I could hope for! Charlie was great to work with, a very no hassle / no pressure situation. Found them randomly on carfax and purchased in July 2019 - car has worked out great and I'll definitely be returning the next time we need to purchase.
Andrew Smith`15 Apr 2020
I was new to buying a car. I went to a few dealerships and felt the pressure of being signed to a car that I wasn't entirely interested in. I ended up finding CJ Motors in Beverly through Carfax. I couldn't have asked for a greater place to help me purchase a vehicle. These guys at CJ Motors helped me through every step of the way. Extremely nice and provided great advice. I would recommend this place to anyone.
Andrew Condon13 Mar 2020
Most people have some type of opinion on car salesmen. Charlie and George were amazing and not out to take advantage at all. They were very helpful and got me into the car that i wanted . They were kind and explained everything step by step . I really loved my experience here and will recommend them and be back in the future if needed.
Rose Gonzales31 Jan 2020
I can't say enough good things about CJ Motors. I recently purchased a Jeep from them and it is easily the best car buying experience I have ever had. I couldn't be happier with the car, deal and most importantly the level of service provided by George and Charlie. There were a couple minor issues (Battery needed to be replaced and the heater core needed to be flushed) with the car after I purchased it but George and Charlie went above and beyond to take care of them for me free of charge. From my experience in the past I was expecting to be told its a used car and the issues are my problem but it was the complete opposite at CJ Motors. I will definitely be back next time I need to purchase a vehicle.
mike01913 .08 Nov 2019
What a wonderful experience in buying a car. George was patient, kind, and informative with the process. He couldn't do enough for our daughter , a first time car buyer. I highly recommend doing business with this dealership, CJ MOTORS in Beverly, 360 Rantoul St. Ask for George, he's terrific!
Micky Corbett09 Oct 2019
I bought a 2007 Prius hatchback from CJ motors that had only 40,000 miles on the odometer. A few months later, I was rear-ended on my way home from work with damage to the rear bumper. Two months later, I was backing out of a parking space while someone was backing out directly across from me and we hit simultaneously. More damage. I later went to CJ Motors to get another Prius for my son. George, the salesman, noticed the damage to my car and asked me if I wanted it fixed. I dropped off the car and a day later it came back as good as new. I asked George how much I owed for the repair, and he said "NOTHING"!! This business is tops when it comes to servicing its customers and building loyalty. I have bought 3 second-generation Prius's, including my own, from CJ motors. They all are good running machines and now I can depend on a good dealer to assist me if I have any problems. I wish I could add even more stars to this review.
Vernon Cormier Jr.04 Oct 2019
I was shopping for daughter's first car and visited CJ Motors in August, 2019. Both George and Charlie are honest and trustworthy businessmen. Even though, I ended up not buying a car from CJ Motors, I just wanted to express my appreciation to George for his fairness, respect, and consideration. They are not just trying to sell you any car, they really care and want customers to be happy with their purchase. Strongly recommended!

I just had my second experience with CJ Motors in Beverly, and they even surpassed their excellence from the first time I bought a car from them. I had recently been in a car accident, a car that I bought from them and absolutely loved!!!!!, and came back to them to find another vehicle, and it took no time for them to guide me into the right vehicle for me, and at such a tremendous deal!!!!! They are the nicest gentlemen and really take my best interests into consideration. Thank you again to CJ Motors and I sincerely recommend them for all your vehicles!!!!!!!!!

Quality Dealership
I just purchased a new to me Jeep from CJ Motors this past Friday. I came in early knowing that I didn’t have the best credit at this time and am in the process of rebuilding but I also knew that the Jeep they had was the “one” after searching for a few months. The quality interaction I had with George and Charlie made this whole process move along as smoothly as it could of and with a happy conclusion. They both went out of their was to make sure everything was right. It’s nice to know you can still find honest and upfront people these days. The other vehicles on the lot were also very nice, all of quality as well for used vehicles. Will be recommending CJ motors to my friends and family, without a doubt.

Our response: Thank You
Excellent dealership & people, who really care about doing the right thing! No more over-priced and/or sleazy dealerships, or risky private-party sales. I just got a Corolla here and will be getting my next car here, too... If all used car sellers were like these guys, the profession would be among the most respected.

Hello there everybody. I got my car Toyota Camry 2007 from Charlie and I couldn’t ask for a better customer service. Excellent informations and he guided me through everything from the day I made the call. We drove and tested the car and anything I wanted to know he was there for me. Great prices compared to other dealerships and even compared to the market. I left satisfied and I can’t be more thankful. This is my second car and finally I made the right choice by choosing him and his dealership. Thank you buddy you doing great.

Absolutely perfect, everyone was helpful and buying was a quick and easy process, financing and the choices available. At CJ Motors, nothing but the best experience. Worker are nice and courteous. My paperwork was explained to me in full details. Any questions or concerns where addressed by the staff helping me with my purchase. We went over features and they told me I could call if I had any questions. Would highly recommend them. Thank you for making my experience pleasant.

I can’t believe these people and this business is real! Best experience I have, 5 stars, level 10 relationship building. I have a 9.99% loan on my previous car (bought ten months ago) and I got a low 5% loan with the guidance of CJ Motors despite the heavy debt of my first car. I have a beautiful second car now. All I can say is thank you.
Emrah Aras03 Apr 2019
Wonderful experience! No pressure at all from anyone, and it was clear that they were committed to getting me in the right car even if it wasn’t from there. They were extremely open with information - showing me the CarFax and any other information I asked for. Will be bringing my friend who is looking for a car here, and will recommend to anyone looking on the North Shore.
Jordan Pina19 Feb 2019
I brought a friend in today for a vehicle because I have had a experience with George before in the past .. He was able to find me a reliable car and affordable car that fits my lifestyle... He is a great help and willing to go above and beyond for anyone.. I highly recommend cj motors...
James Cowels06 Feb 2019
After grudgingly getting by using just Uber for months, I finally had the opportunity to buy my first car so I could commute to work. Charlie (the owner of CJ Motors) is a fantastic person to work with. The first and for some the most important factor is that he prices his cars very fairly. Going through the Kelley Blue Book and looking through the inventory on his website immediately shows that all the cars are priced at the mid or even low end of the fair category for KBB's price comparisons. The website isn't always a hundred percent up to date though so I would definitely take the time to visit the dealership in person if you get the chance. It's not a huge deal to someone who checks the going rate of a car beforehand, but those that don't know any better would still get by with a good deal. There's no pushy salesman tactics, and the car that he will recommend will always be something that is up to the job you're putting it through. For example, since I was going to be commuting, I needed something reliable and that had good gas mileage. I also needed something that had All-wheel drive for the inevitable winter snowstorms that were sure to come. I was able to find the perfect vehicle in large part thanks to Charlie's recommendations, which truly aim to find the perfect fit for you rather than just trying to offload inventory. I didn't have thousands to spend on a car, but that was okay. I had enough for the down payment and applying for financing through CJ Motors was easy as could be. I worried that I was going to end up with a shady car loan but surprisingly I ended up having options with very reputable credit unions and agencies in the area. I happened to have good credit, so I went through DCU with a very competitive APR, but options definitely exist for those who don't have great credit scores. The lesson is that a plethora of different income levels could shop at this dealership and be comfortable that they will be able to find the right financing for their situation. You can also loop the sales tax into the loan so you aren't hit with a $500 bill at the RMV for the sales tax, registration fees, and the rest of the stuff. For those who have no insurance, CJ Motors also has contacts in the area who can find competitive rates. I didn't end up using one of them, and went through GEICO instead, but that option did exist. The insurance agencies that he recommends even have the option of getting the car registered for you at the DMV for a small fee. I ended up getting the car registered myself, and the whole process probably took less than five minutes with how easy it was. This was thanks to every necessary document having all the right information. It was a truly painless process. The car that I bought runs great, and I haven't had any issues with it at all. I went into the process of buying a used car with heavy skepticism and a mindset that I wouldn't let a used car salesman get the better of me. All of this preparation turned out to be unnecessary, because I didn't have to deal with any of that stuff when I bought a vehicle through this dealership. This is coming from someone who had no idea how to buy a car before. No idea how the bill of sale works, or the title, or the loan process, or insurance, or the registration process, or any of that stuff. I was shocked at how painless the process could be even with a complete lack of knowledge. I cannot recommend this dealership enough, and if I ever feel the need to upgrade to a more luxurious and newer vehicle I will definitely have this place at the top of my list for places to buy from.
Arslan05 Feb 2019
I just bought my car there and I couldn't be happier with my purchase! I highly recommend anyone looking to by a used to do it here, especially if you are not confident or new to the car buying process. They only recommended cars that were within my budget and never pressured me to buy anything I couldn't afford. They were very patient as they walked me through every step in the financial process. They were dedicated to making sure I got a deal that fit my needs/budget and that I was satisfied as a customer. These are good and honest people. Ill probably buy my next car here as well.
Nicholas Aquilante01 Nov 2018
I'm very glad I chose CJ Motors for my first time buying a car. The process was very straightforward and transparent the whole way through — and fast! 24 hours after choosing a car, I was driving my new (to me) 2008 Prius, 100% registered and inspected and everything. They also gave me a good recommendation for choosing car insurance. I am very happy with my purchase and I would recommend CJ Motors to anyone looking to buy a reliable car on a budget.
Kendra Williams10 Sep 2018
I recently purchased a vehicle from CJ Motors and found that dealing with these two gentleman Nick and Jorge was extremely satifying. I needed a dependable, low priced vehicle for my son, and these two gentlemen made sure that I was given the perfect (first) vehicle for my son. They made me feel more comfortable buying an economic car by having my mechanic check the car over, and allowing him to diagnose any issues requiring repair. They brought the vehicle to my own mechanic for me, to make sure that everything was running well, and to have him diagnose anything that needed to be repaired or replaced and they corrected all issues at no cost to me. They didn’t use cheap parts either. For example they did a full brake job on all four wheels. They used the best brand parts and didn’t try to skip anything. Every single brake part was replaced. Ie. brake lines, calipers, discs, shoes, pads, drums and rotors etc. They put four brand new tires on the vehicle, cleaned up the rocker panels which had minimal rust, and they also brought the vehicle to get an inspection sticker, and put the license plates on for my son. They didn’t pressure me to buy outside my price range, while making sure that I bought a dependable, safe car as requested. While my son was pulling out of their lot they noticed that the passenger side brake light was flickering, so the called him back and replaced the brake light. It’s service like this that allows me to put my name on a recommendation for CJ Auto Sales. I would recommend this Auto Sales Company to anyone looking for a used vehicle. You’ll not only be happy with the vehicle selection, and if you purchase a vehicle from this dealer you’ll be very happy with your vehicle, and you should feel more than comfortable knowing that your dealing with honest, fair individuals that are more concerned with you leaving happy, than making a sale and you leaving unhappy.

CJ Motors was great. When I went to buy a car with my aunt they were friendly, accommodating, and real. If you want to get a good used car without dealing with the typical pushy salesmen, CJ Motors is the place to go. It's just real people selling cars, and that's the best thing about it.
Sydney Dominick03 Aug 2018
Cj motors really impressed me I went in thinking I was going to be treated bad like most salesman do but the personal there were amazing they were amazingly brilliant with knowledge of vehicles that fit my needs and they went out their way to make sure I was more than satisfied I recommend Cj motors to all I have not one complaint the process was perfect I was stunned by the kindness and loyalty. I know nothing is perfect but these guys were 99.9% close it I love this car and I recommend you give them a call or visit I promise you will see what I’m talking about.. AWESOME JOB GUYS ... Thanks
Gary Polignone28 Jun 2018
If you're on the fence, go here!! You won't regret it!! Such a friendly atmosphere and wonderful nice people! George helped me pick out my new (used) Prius and I couldn't be happier...he has helped me out so much! I tried out many other dealers before finally coming here and it was the best decision of my life...they know exactly what they are doing and honestly give you the best deal out there and beyond (not to mention all of their cars are in spectacular condition). I will always be buying cars from them :)
Amanda Polnicki13 Jun 2018
Thank you CJ Motors for your help purchasing my 2012 Nissan. I appreciate all your hard work to make this purchase an easy experience for me. You have answered all my questions without hesitation. I highly recommend CJ Motors for their honesty, and for selling good and well maintained cars.
Cyber Spiritz11 May 2018
I had just been a car accident a couple of months back and My car was deemed a total loss. I was nervous about financing another car because of the fear of being scammed by a bad car dealership. George was amazing. He showed me every step that he took to make sure my finance was easy and that he had my best interest at heart . He set me up for a better future and helping me towards a better credit situation in my life. The perfect salesman to have on your side. I highly recommend CJ motors for a great experience.
James Cowels10 May 2018
Our response: Thank you so much James. I am Glad that we were able to help you and erase the bad experience that you had with your old purchase.
My sister and I had the best overall experience right from the test drive to delivering her car. Charlie was friendly, honest, and knowledgeable, not aggressive sales person yet ambition to make sure you don't leave disappointed then Charlie is your guy. I would highly recommend CJ Motors. You can definitely purchase with confidence.
Marcy Rose Rose23 Jan 2018
I've bought quite a few cars in the past and I had a tendency to buy from individuals rather than dealers because of the "pushy car salesman" cliche being true more often than not. With Charlie that was not an issue. He was very pleasant to deal with, incredibly kind, understanding, and patient even when I was uncertain and a bit wishy/washy. He let me think things over at my own pace without making me feel like he was just out for the sale. My price range was on the low end of things and he respected that. He didn't try to up-sell or oversell me into something I didn't want nor could afford. He didn't treat me like a customer with little cash, he treated me with respect and I appreciated that immensely. In a world where money reigns supreme, he gave me a little hope and faith that humanity is still important, even in business transactions. Thus far I love the car I bought from him and I hope others will see this review and give him a chance. I really think anyone who buys from him will have a pleasant and painless buying experience, I certainly did.
Angela Adkins31 Aug 2017
Charlie didn't try to up-sell or oversell me into something I didn't want nor could afford. He listened to my concerns and questions and answered everything readily. Thus far I love the car I bought from him. I really think anyone who buys from Charlie will have a pleasant and painless buying experience, I certainly did!
Angela Ouellette31 Aug 2017
I highly recommend CJ Motors to anyone looking for a used car. Charlie is very professional, and made it easy for me to buy my first car. He was very open to answering any questions I had about the car buying process. The car I got was well worth the price and has been a great vehicle so far. Again, I would highly recommend CJ Motors to anyone looking for a great car.
