European Collectibles

Can confidently say Chris met and exceeded my expectations from day one. His level of communication and transparency made me confident right out of the gate and I would recommend him and European Collectibles to anyone looking for a well sorted vehicle. Thank you again for making it happen!

I bought my 2006 Cayman S from European Collectibles and had an exceptional experience. Chris and Nick possess an unmatched level of Porsche expertise and high level of customer service. They made the process of buying my car a joy from start to finish, I will return to them for all of my future Porsche needs.

Can't say enough good things about these guys. Erick was very personable and was great to work with throughout the process. Good communication and was very knowledgeable. The car I bought was in very good shape, but not restored and it needed some extra work to address some shifting / safety issues which Nick and the team took care of it with no questions.

Can’t say enough good things about Erick Quintana in sales at European Collectables. As I was a potential buyer Erick walked and kept the proper balance of the line between the competing interests of seller and buyer. He responded promptly and accurately to all of my questions; he negotiated a fair deal for both seller and me of a ‘60 356B Porsche, arranged an excellent transporter for cross country shipping and followed up with answers to my questions well after finalizing the sale. I would rate Erick a 10 out of a possible 10 point scale!

I bought my first classic Porsche (a beautiful 993) from Chris here at EC, came in to test drive a 944 Turbo and then mentioned I’d been looking for an affordable 993 for almost a year, and it just so happened that they had just got hold of one. Even though the car I was buying was a tenth of the cost of some of their incredible collection, I was still given excellent service and response from Chris the whole way. If you’re in the market for something special I can’t recommend them enough.

This is truly the best experience I have ever had working with car company. The sales team, mechanics & owner are world class. 100% honest and trustworthy. More companies should be this great!!!

I purchased an XKE/FHC from European collectibles in April, 2022. The salesman was Todd Wertman. I found him to be extremely responsive to ALL of my questions and requests. He also arranged for great shipping at a great price and, quick as well. I believe the car I purchased was probably a reasonable deal but not at the asking price. I don't believe it was a bargain, but it was fair.

If you read the description of the car and paid very close attention, you would’ve noted the car’s paint got well-deserved accolades, but the interior was only described as having supposedly high quality materials. (From what I could tell that was also true: the materials were excellent.) However, no kudos we're given for the interior; and that was also accurate. The interior was okay but given that new, quality materials were used, the install was sloppy and well below the quality of the paint and mechanicals; I knew that when I purchased the car.

Buying a car from European collectibles is definitely a do over with this caveat, or two. Make no assumptions that are not in writing. And, definitely get a PPI. I got a great recommendation for a gentleman named Steve Leyerly of Exotic Motorcars in Upland California ? Pomona. He did a superb job, underpriced and certainly was the best and most thorough PPI I've ever received. (OK, OK! tie game with Patrick Ottis in Berkeley, California.) I would not be surprised if Steve has been banned from ever setting foot on European Collectibles property!

Wandered in to European Collectibles a few weeks ago, after seeing their cars online and having seen the shop while driving around Costa Mesa. I was curious about classic Porsches in general, a few specific body styles, and the current market. I wasn't sure where to even start the process but Chris was helpful answering my questions. I returned a few weeks later to take a look at an '82 911SC that I heard about, and spoke with Erick. Erick was very knowledgable about the car (and classic Porsches in general), patient with answering all of my questions, and professional throughout. I enjoyed working with Eric and ultimately bought the car on the spot after a test drive. Couldn't be happier with my experience overall with European Collectibles, and especially with Erick's service!

2002 open house to Porsche weekend

Restored a 1955 Mercedes Gullwing for me. It was so good it now resides in the Mercedes Museum in Germany! Could not have happier! So much they restored a Ferrari 275 for me. Absolutely perfect!

Chris is great to deal with, easy process and sticks to his word. The car was better than described, could not be happier.

Impressed with the workmanship of the many cars that were there. Friendly service especially by Tim Rivera who personally spent time to answer our questions.

Great selection of mainly air cooled Porsches

Go see Chris and let the good times roll.
