I was in the market for a new car and used a couple of online services to contact the internet sales departments of multiple dealerships. This Honda dealership was fast to respond and gave me concrete pricing for models that were on the lot. Some other dealerships only send a cut and paste general email that doesn't help a car buyer with specific prices or models.

Ryan in the internet sales department was fast to respond and went the extra mile for me. I felt a little more at ease going in to the dealership because I had already got some very reasonable quotes by email before even stepping foot in the showroom. If you are shopping for a new car, the only way to go these days is to use the "contact dealers" option on sites like Edmonds dot com or Carsdirect dot com and let the dealers compete for your business. Since the dealers know you are getting prices from several other dealerships, you get a bottom line price a lot faster than you would just walking in cold to a dealership. Some interet sales departments are better than others and this Honda dealership understands the internet customer (busy, wants a firm price quickly without a lot of drama).

I was also impressed with the service area of this dealership which is right in the main showroom. It was clean, lots of snacks and drinks for customers getting their cars serviced and everyone looked content. I've been to some dealerships that have service in a separate area and often the service area is not that well maintained and people don't look glad to be there. The fact that this dealership included it right in the main showroom tells me they have nothing to hide and they are there for the life of your vehicle.

I was impressed with the people and process at this dealership even though I did not end up buying a Honda. They really tried to assess what I wanted and select models that suited my wants. They did not try and push things on me I was not interested in. I would recommend this dealership if you are shopping for Hondas.
