| - Best car buying experience I've ever had. The facility is so clean and stocked with a Keurig so that's awesome.
But anyway, to the more important stuff... firstly, my car dealer, BRAD, was so helpful. I bought a 2013 Honda Fit. Obviously it's the car buying business, so you have to know what you're doing. I had to make Brad rewrite his offer like, 5 times.. so I was there for about 4 hours (lol) but the point is this- it was a good experience.
Yes, I had to tell him I wanted more on for my trade-in. Yes, I had to tell him to lower the cost on the car. Yes, I told him to add in the tinted windows for free. Yes, I came in with pre-approved credit so I could tell him, "if you can give me a lower interest rate than THIS, I will go through Honda's financing for my credit" (and they did offer me a better interest rate so yay). I had to do all the things you would do at any other car dealership. But!!! I felt comfortable doing it. The problem in the past I've had is car dealers being rude, acting like you're being unreasonable, taking too much time pretending they're "talking to the manager to see what they can do". Brad didn't do any of that; I knew what I was doing so when I said the word, he delivered.
And you know how they're always like "get it in writing, get it in writing". Well I know I had been promised tinted windows in the negotiating process. When I went to the finance guy to sign my contract, he already had it added EVERYTHING I negotiated. When it came to ACTUALLY getting my windows tinted, I didn't have to bring in my paperwork nor contract. Brad had already set it up with the service department and all I had to do was show up.
To add to the already pleasant experience, they were pretty accommodating with a situation on my trade-in. I had a "fix-it ticket" for my tint on my old Mazda. I fixed the tint to legal limit and didn't have time to get it signed off by Highway Patrol before I bought my Fit. Well, Brad let me pick up my Mazda a week after I had traded it in and bring it to Highway Patrol so I could get my ticket signed off. How cool is that?! They had to put a hold on putting my Mazda on the market, just so my illegal-tint-having-self could get my ticket taken care of.
So. Awesome.
Anyway, I've been so lazy on writing reviews lately but this past Monday, Brad called and wished me a "Happy Birthday" and asked how my Honda was doing FIVE months after I bought my car... So... yeah. Had to finally give credit where credit was due.
