The staff was courteous and professional. My car was processed well in advance of their initial time estimate. I've been going to Santa Monica motors for many years, and through the ownership of 2 prior cars.

The company is very efficient and timely. As my car had a "tricky" sensor issue, so they took they time needed to double check. Informing Me that they needed to keep the car overnight. You can get both the Smog test/Cert, and the necessary repairs (if needed). Not all Smog places also do repairs!!!!

I never thought I'd so enthused by a smog check that I'd feel compelled to write a Yelp review, but here I am, smitten with this smog check spot. I called when they opened to schedule an appointment, to reach a very courteous man who sounded like he should wake me up on the radio every morning, and he said I could come in at any time and it should be about 30 minutes. Sweet. I arrive, and the man who smog checked my car was equally friendly and helpful, and instructed me to pay in a waiting area that rivals a hip cafe. There was comfortable seating, hispter tables, succulents, and a Keurig machine. Usually, the "waiting area" at a smog check is 3 folding chairs in a small office that smells like motor oil and if you're lucky, perhaps a pot of coffee, a Sparklets dispenser, and some styrofoam cups that make you feel like your carbon footprint just went up a size if you dare use one. This felt like a place I'd meet someone for a cappuccino or write in my journal. I sat down and enjoyed my coffee, and within 10 minutes, I was told my car had passed and was ready. To put the icing on the cake, they parked my car so I could immediately exit (don't you love when someone parks your car so you have to do an 8 point turn and avoid hitting 7 strangers cars in the process?) and even put the seat back to my severely short position. I never thought a smog check would be so remarkable I would only return to one place, but it's happened: I'm married to this place for the duration of my vehicle ownership.

Thanks again, Don, for coming to the rescue of my 2002 VW Cabrio! That old gal has lasted me this long thanks to the stellar maintenance it receives at SMM. Much appreciated.
