Very quick, but paid $60 rather than the $35 that the coupon pictured lead me to believe. This is just for a basic smog test on a new 2012 5 door. Pep boys will do it for $40, and I would have gone there had I known the actual price.

No wait. Smog check done in less than 10 minutes. Super fast and convenient. Price was as quoted and same as the shop I used to go to. I’ll be coming here to see Paul on all future smog checks. Highly recommend.

My experience was excellent! Fast, courteous and efficient service! The man who ran the test was very nice! Best price I could find in the area...took only a few minutes (less than 10 min). Highly recommended!

$48.35 for a smog cert.??? Unbelievable! First time since owning my 2014 Hyundai Santa Fe that I had to pay $10 extra because the guy called it the "SUV price." Funny how they did not quote me their $10 additional fee when I was talking to them on the phone. I highly suggest staying away from here. And, to add insult to injury, they didn't miss dinging me for the debit fee of $0.35. I laughed at the guy behind the desk when he told me, "oh, everybody gets $0.35 nowadays!" I WILL NEVER GIVE THESE PEOPLE MY BUSINESS AGAIN! EVER!!! DON'T MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE I DID.

Great service and honest. I needed to get a smog check for an out of state brand new car and I called several places and the prices fluctuated from low 40’s to high 70’s with condition ( if you pay with coupon, if you pay cash etc). When I called Anthony’s he gave me the price with no condition and was actually the lowest price in the area. I would go back to him.

OMG. Others are right that this guy is a scammer. I went there with a coupon from his website. He said the website people didn’t change the price like they were supposed to. So the price went up from $29.75 to $75 plus $8.25. The thing is that I called before going there, telling him that I am using the coupon from his website. He said okay just come. Then when I got there, he said he didn’t talk to anyone. Don’t waste your time driving all the way here because you saw a deal. He won’t honor the coupon. You’ll pay $75 plus $8.25.

I was able to get in right away to get my car smogged. Anthony was pleasant, efficient, professional and he provided great customer service. I was a first time customer that will be back. I would highly recommend his shop to anyone that will listen.

Literally was in and out in about 15 minutes. Great customer service, I even showed him the coupon and he told me he already added it in. Paid $50.00 and was all done. Even before going I called asked if they were busy. They told me no, I drove in and was in and out. I will definitely continue to use this spot for my smog check, and I recommend this going.

Good check but misleading ad - 1. Cash only but website says "Acceptance of any credit cards, debit cards, checks, or cash" 2. Unlike other Smog pro coupons theirs does not state that SUV, truck, etc are extra, just says most cars $29.75

Great experience! Will definitely be back for our other cars. This was the 3rd shop I called this morning, the 1st wasn't STAR certified and the 2nd was rude. No wait and great conversation with Paul. Paul is a car guy and we spent more time talking cars then it took to complete the smog test. Highly recommended, best shop and operator I've worked with in years.

After reaching out to numerous smog shops and receiving inflated quotes, I came across Paul’s Smog Shop through a Google and Yelp search. Despite some of the negative reviews, I decided to give them a chance as a final option and it was a decision I don’t regret. My phone call with Paul was brief and to the point, lasting less than a minute. He provided a quote that met all my criteria and was more competitive than any other offer I had received. There was no unnecessary sales pitch — just a transparent, out-the-door price. Upon arriving at the shop, Paul greeted me and guided me through the process. He asked me to relax while I completed the necessary paperwork, then took my keys. In what felt like mere 3-5 minutes, the smog check was completed. The efficiency and professionalism were impressive. I was in and out in no time. For anyone looking for a quick, reliable, and straightforward smog check, I highly recommend this Smog Shop!

29.75 coupon?? This is deceptive. Fraudulent. I was told “it’s $71 for my MKX “ WITH the coupon! ($50 if I pay cash and the income can go unreported. ) He said, “this is an SUV”. But it’s gasoline engine with the same OBD connector as every other car. The same program, the same 10 minutes to run the test. Fraud. I wonder if DMV and FTB know about the under-the-table cash discount. I’ll look into it.

Similar to what others have said; advertised price was $29 but ended up paying about $71. To be fair, it’s on the higher side of a smog check but within the $30 - $80 range of what you can expect. Process was quick. It is what it is

I took my wife's car for the required smog test to renew her license plate tags and was in and out in less than 10 minutes. Paul Abboud is professional, knowledgeable, kind and efficient. I take all my cars to Paul as he is honest and runs a terrific shop. Paul also has a clean shop with state of the are equipment. Paul also accepts coupons that are available online and provide discounts. Highly recommended!

I had a very disappointing experience with Paul. My car passed the emissions test, but he decided to failed it claiming the engine had been tampered with, and wanted to charge me an extra $600 just to diagnose a problem that didn't even exist!!! I went to another smog shop right after, and they passed it immediately with no issues. Unfortunately, I ended up paying for a test that didn’t need to be failed. This guy is a scammer.

Great service and no wait, not to mention the best prices in Mission Viejo. If you are considering any sort of smog check i would highly recommend this shop as it's the best, coming from a returning customer of four years.
