What Clients Say

Joseph SoraciJoseph Soraci ★★★★★ Siraj is the man.This was my first supercar purchase, so I quickly learned that financing one is quite different from buying an ordinary off-the-shelf vehicle. Siraj guided me through the entire process step by step, answered every phone call and email promptly, and made sure I felt comfortable as we navigated the details. The Woodside team came across as extremely professional from start to finish.This is my first purchase with them—hopefully not my last—and I won’t hesitate to work with Woodside (and Siraj) again for the next one.Adam TrompAdam Tromp ★★★★★ I can't say enough great things about how pleased I am with Woodside. I had them help me with a Ferrari purchase back in the early 2000's, a car I always dreamt of and a true bucket list car! Fast forward to 2026 and a bit more complicated situation since I am now a business owner / entrepreneur as opposed to my Corp job in my past life.Where most lenders just plug your stats into a finance model and shoot out a quick "yay or nay", Woodside gives you the chance to explain specifics and tell your story. My wife and I own multiple businesses and pay ourselves JUST what we need and continue to put our surplus funds right back in the companies. Most banks don't understand that which is very frustrating!Beyond the above, excellent customer service, great follow up and a team that genuinely cares about their clients. 5 starts all the way! I'm so excited for my "new to me" Porsche GT3, thank you for making my dream a reality...again! I'm a client for life!Anthony FloresAnthony Flores ★★★★★ Q at Woodside Credit was incredible to work with. He was always available, made the entire process painless and streamlined, and truly felt like a partner throughout the deal. He helped me secure my dream car, funded everything incredibly fast, and even the seller commented on how smooth and impressive the process was. Super cool, extremely effective, and knows classic cars inside and out.

But with my plans as they are, the low payment was great. Thanks Woodside (Scott).Gina IrwinGina Irwin ★★★★★ Jacob Freeman was absolutely incredible to work with. Provided a quote and answered questions immediately after my request and even after hours. Loan approval and financing was completed within 2 days. He also has a Hagerty Insurance rep on-site and was able to get coverage immediately which allowed the loan to be processed quickly. If I could give Jacob and Woodside more than 5 stars, I would!!!!!

Makes process so easy!Scott GreenScott Green ★★★★★ Robert Ramos with Woodside Credit was my finance guy and he made the entire process from start to finish an easy and fabulous experience. He even went above and beyond after the deal was closed to answer some of my concerns.Ryan NickolRyan Nickol ★★★★★ I had an excellent experience with Woodside. I have a high credit score but like most small business owners the debt to income on the credit check isn't accurate because it doesn't tell the whole story. Chase, my rep, was able to identify that after I sent over a couple tax returns. 5 minutes later I was approved for more than I needed. When it comes time to buy the next toy, Woodside is the only call I'll make.Jim AndersonJim Anderson ★★★★★ What can I say woodside credit was a pleasure to work with thay answered all my questions and I always got timely answersThanks so much for all your help two thumbs 👍 upJimJoseph PizzimentiJoseph Pizzimenti ★★★★★ Art and team from Woodside made my experience “scary easy”!

I only wished I would have known about. Woodside credit years ago.⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Jacquelyn VJacquelyn V ★★★★★ Prompt, responsive, knowledgeable and fair.Q looked out for me from start to finish!What more can you ask for?Richard HartzRichard Hartz ★★★★★ a pleasure to work with!Johnny EdwardsJohnny Edwards ★★★★★ Great rates and great terms. Easy application process. Great customer service. I got my dream car at an affordable monthly payment. I know that everyone complains about the length of the term, but if you get your dream car and plan to keep it for life, 8 - 10 years is worth it. Especially if the car you purchase holds or increases in value. You can always walk away and sell your vehicle for a profit if your financial situation changes. At the end of the day, spoil yourself. I'm driving my dream car for the monthly payment of a well optioned BMW 5 Series! Just be ready to put up 25% as your down payment. That's the only real hurdle.Balthazar MejiaBalthazar Mejia ★★★★★ Debbie was Great to work with.Answered all my Questions, we had fun during the process and great experience overall.
