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 found Hamer Toyota through an internet service. Skip Reese contacted me and addressed all my questions before I went to the dealership. I had a little concern about the car after the first test drive. Reese contacted me and addressed all my questions before I went to the dealership. I had a little concern about the car after the first test drive. Skip let me have the second test drive until I felt comfortable about my decision of purchasing the car. Skip and the Hamer Toyota staff made the car buying experience as less stressful as possible. Thank you so much Skip! It was a pleasure doing business with you. More

This is the third car in the last year that our family has purchased and it was hands down the best experience. Julio was a joy to deal with all the way through. The online price I was given was honored has purchased and it was hands down the best experience. Julio was a joy to deal with all the way through. The online price I was given was honored exactly as promised with no "dealer add-ons" that had turned me off on my other car purchase experiences. Even my 16 year old daughter commented on how easy this purchase was. Julio was very easy going, with no pressure, and no nonsense. I highly recommend this dealership! More

Ms. Marylou Santiago and Mr. Nilo Ortiz made my buying experience much more wonderful than my previous one with another car dealership. Granted, I've only bought one other car before, but this experience experience much more wonderful than my previous one with another car dealership. Granted, I've only bought one other car before, but this experience definitely tops that. They've made everything simple, quick and, dare I say, fun! They were able to answer all my questions, explain everything in detail and help me get a deal that I couldn't just say 'no' to. I especially liked the way they treat you as if you've known them forever. This is something that I don't think any other dealership inherently have, much less, care for. I definitely would be coming back here just because of Ms. Marylou and Mr. Nilo. If I were to rate them from 1 to 5, I would, hands-down, give them a 10 (yeah, they're that great)! I would definitely recommend them to others. More
