Our Story
From OC Auto Lease to Coastal Motor Group.
One goal from day one — help people get better car deals without the stress, confusion, or pressure of a traditional dealership.
Coastal Motor Group started with one simple goal: help people get better car deals without the stress, confusion, or pressure of the traditional dealership.
The beginning
Before we were Coastal Motor Group.
We were OC Auto Lease — a one-person operation helping family, friends, and our Orange County community lease cars the right way. The focus was simple: help people understand payments, compare programs, and get into the right vehicle without spending hours negotiating.
What started as a favor for people close to us grew through word of mouth. One happy client referred another. Then another. Before long, we were helping friends of friends, families, business owners, and professionals across Southern California find the right cars at the right numbers.
The rename
Why we became Coastal Motor Group.
OC Auto Lease fit when we were focused on Orange County — but our work outgrew one area and outgrew leasing alone. We expanded across Southern California and the state, into financing, purchasing, trade-ins, fleet, and wholesale.
The name represents where we started, where we serve, and how the experience should feel. California is built around movement — coast to city, work to family, commutes to weekend drives.
Drive Coastal is more than a tagline. It's a smoother, easier, more elevated way to get your next vehicle.
How we operate
A preferred vendor — not a middleman.
Real relationships
Strong ties to dealerships, fleet managers, finance teams, brand reps, and California's largest wholesalers. We're treated as a trusted preferred vendor — that's access, speed, and insight most customers can't get on their own.
Deals penciled in-house
We evaluate programs, structure options, and identify the right opportunity before bringing it to you. That means faster turns, clearer communication, and deals built the right way from the start.
Built by car people
Former dealership professionals, experienced sales consultants, and veteran sales managers. We know the business from the inside — which makes us a lot harder to push around.

Why clients stay
Most of our business is repeat or referred.
Over the past two years, we've helped clients secure 1,500+ vehicles — everyday commuters, luxury cars, family SUVs, EVs, business fleet, and wholesale. Every deal helped us grow, but the approach hasn't changed: treat every client like a referral from someone close to us.
That's why so much of our business still comes from repeat customers and word of mouth. People trust us because we make it easier, keep it honest, and earn the relationship beyond one transaction.
From OC Auto Lease to the team we are today, the mission hasn't changed.
Get the right car, the right deal, and the right experience — without the hassle.
