Our founder Lee Hamer started this company on April 19, 1939 as an automobile general service and repair station on the corner of Sepulveda and San Fernando Mission Boulevards in Mission Hills. With your help and continued patronage Hamer Toyota has continued to grow into the state of the art Automotive Dealership we know today!
Mr. Hamer has won many awards for his charitable contributions to the community as well as for his impeccable reputation for honesty, integrity, and fairness. Lee was very active in the San Fernando Valley including the development of youth, sports and welfare projects that have greatly benefited our community. He was an active community leader in the Mission Hills Chamber of Commerce, served two terms as President of Los Angeles Fire Commission in the 60s and was a founding member of Holy Cross Medical Center Century Club. Lee was the recipient of the Fernando Award in 1989. The most prestigious award that can be earned, for philanthropic and charitable works.
Over the years he has been an automotive dealer for Hudson, Studebaker, Mercedes, Citroen, Volvo, MG, Triumph, Fiat, Renault, Borgward and Datsun. In July of 1965 we became an Exclusively Toyota Dealership. Mr. Hamer sold an average of about 10 cars a month back then. Today the Dealership average is closer to 500 cars a month and we are among the top 3% of Toyota Dealers in the nation.
Lee Hamer passed away November 15, 1995.
Today we continue in the tradition started by Lee Hamer; offering friendly, honest, customer service and prices that almost make you feel like you're back in the "old days." We are committed to your satisfaction and a lifetime relationship dedicated to your automotive needs. Our goal is to be recognized by our customers as one of the most respected and successful dealerships in Southern California.

I called Hamer Sunday morning and wanted to see a particular car, a nearly new GR86. I connected with Oscar and he invited me in. I liked the car but told Oscar we had just transferred money to my ch particular car, a nearly new GR86. I connected with Oscar and he invited me in. I liked the car but told Oscar we had just transferred money to my checking account and we wouldn’t be buying today. He asked if I was interested in buying the car and I said yes but probably not until Tuesday when my money would be in the account. Well, we went through the pricing, settled on a reasonable price and I decided to buy now. I used a card for the down payment. There was no high pressure so the whole experience was painless and positive. I think the price was reasonable and I went home with the car. I went back on Tuesday with a check. So, all things considered, a good experience with Hamer and Oscar. So, thanks Oscar and I’m enjoying the car. More

Coming to Hammer Toyota is a relaxing experience. Employees are cordial and pleasant to talk to. They are not pushing you to buy, nor forcing you to choose. I had a great personalized service while Employees are cordial and pleasant to talk to. They are not pushing you to buy, nor forcing you to choose. I had a great personalized service while getting a new car from the dealership. I am very thankful to Oscar. Oscar P. is a very knowledgeable person, very helpful, he assists with things that are not even part of his duties. He goes the extra mile to help the customer. He is patience and shows lots of empathy. When I arrived at the dealership, I explained to Oscar what I wanted and he made it possible for me. He arranged a manageable financing program; although I wanted more aid, I understand that in this economy everything is much more expensive. Once I got the car he showed me how to set up my vehicle. With all these new technologies, Oscar taught me the most important elements for setting the vehicle properly. And if I had questions on how to do a specific feature, he would answer it. He knows how these new vehicles operate. I had a small issue with the manufacturer painting, and here is where Oscar went beyond his duties, helping me to get the car fixed and look as a brand new car without any problems with the painting. It took a while, but it was done. It was no longer in the hands of Oscar to be done quickly, rather the management and the service center. Hey, better late than ever. I highly recommend Oscar who can assist you with the process of getting your brand new car whether you prefer a lease or a purchase, Oscar is there for you. I’m very grateful for excellent service.
