Commissioning or acquiring an exquisite motor car should be an experience marked by ease, poise, and total confidence. When you are investing in peak automotive craftsmanship, every interaction ought to reflect the same effortless composure found behind the wheel. At our Rolls-Royce retailer in Westlake Village, personal integrity and attentive client care have anchored our salon for generations.
Today, the California CARS Act reinforces that standard under state law, guaranteeing full transparency from your earliest conversation through final delivery.
What Is the California CARS Act?
The California CARS Act is state-consumer legislation established to ensure total openness and accountability throughout the vehicle acquisition process. Whether you are selecting a Cullinan for scenic family travel across the Conejo Valley or commissioning a bespoke newRolls-Royce Ghost for quiet weekend drives along Pacific Coast Highway, the statute ensures you never encounter hidden contingencies, fine-print traps, or ambiguous terms.
By requiring straightforward disclosures on pricing and financing before contracts are executed, the Act provides California motor car enthusiasts with a relaxed, transparent, and thoroughly dignified purchase experience.
Upfront Pricing at Our Thousand Oaks Rolls-Royce Boutique
Under the CARS Act, every motor car presented features a clear, all-inclusive figure right from the start. Deceptive "starting at" figures, placeholder pricing, and mandatory dealer accessory bundles added during closing are prohibited. Any enhancement pre-installed on the vehicle must appear in the quoted total, ensuring non-standard bespoke touches remain entirely at your discretion. When reviewing lease or loan structures, the law mandates full disclosure of the entire financial commitment, clearly stating both the total capital paid across the complete term and the initial sum due at signing. Furthermore, credit pre-qualifications must be anchored by genuine underwriting requirements rather than generic promotional promises.
This direct and honest approach reflects the way O'Gara Coach has managed client relationships since 1976. Recognized internationally as a premier purveyor of luxury motor cars, we combine a private, unhurried showroom atmosphere with an extraordinary selection of Rolls-Royce models. Whether you are joining us from neighboring Encino, Malibu, or Calabasas, you can tour our collection with full assurance that every quotation presented is genuine and respected.
Your 3-Day Right to Cancel on Used Vehicles
California law also includes a statutory 3-day right to cancel on qualifying pre-owned vehicles. To ensure complete clarity, this regulation is strictly limited to pre-owned models priced at $50,000 or below. The provision excludes commercial lease payoffs, wholesale auction purchases, and motorcycles, and it becomes void once the odometer accumulates more than 400 miles post-handover. In the event of an authorized return, statutory restocking and mileage expenses may also apply.
Because handcrafted motor cars from Goodwood almost universally exceed this state-mandated valuation cap, our boutique advisors take the time to review every contractual term with you before final signatures. It serves as an additional layer of clarity while you evaluate our curated Provenance collection, and our Westlake Village staff is always ready to detail how California sales statutes relate to your specific selection.

O'Gara Coach Westlake Village California CARS Act FAQs
What is the California CARS Act and how does it protect me?
The California CARS Act is state consumer-protection legislation mandating upfront pricing transparency, clear financing terms, and a pressure-free acquisition process. For guests visiting our Westlake Village showroom, it codifies the open, bespoke client care O'Gara Coach has championed across Southern California since 1976.
Can I return a used car after I buy it in California?
California provides an automatic three-day cancellation window exclusively for qualifying pre-owned vehicles priced at $50,000 or below. It excludes commercial lease buyouts, auction purchases, and motorcycles, and expires once 400 miles are driven. While hand-built Rolls-Royce motor cars sit well above this price ceiling, our Westlake Village advisors review all terms with complete clarity before you sign.
Will I see the full price of the car before I buy?
Yes. Dealers must disclose the complete, all-inclusive vehicle price up front, eliminating deceptive teaser listings, stripped-down MSRPs, and unannounced add-on fees. Every pre-installed feature is included in the quoted figure, allowing Thousand Oaks and Conejo Valley motorists to review our inventory with total certainty.
Does a dealer have to show the total cost of financing, not just the monthly payment?
Yes. Advertised lease or loan options must clearly present the entire financial picture, detailing the cumulative amount paid over the complete term alongside the exact capital required at signing. Our luxury car finance center team in Westlake Village walks you through every figure line by line.
