My Review of Cleo Bay Honda:
After doing my research on a Honda Odyssey 2008, I submitted my information including trade-in on several websites. Cleo Bay Honda replied with an offer that was somewhat better than all the others and they had the model I wanted. At first I was reluctant to drive the 60 miles to get there but Elaine assured me over the phone that they would stick to their end of the deal. So, I went there and it was the best car buying experience I've ever had. There were some minor negotiations regarding the trade-in value but it was all fair and they came within $200 of their "sight unseen" offer. I asked not to be bothered with extended warranties and so the subject never came up [that's a first!]. In my opinion, this is the way car buying should be. The friendliness, professionalism, service and efficiency of Cleo Bay Honda exceeded my expectations.

My Review of Cleo Bay Honda:
Looked at a car my wife wanted, their prices were way off in my opinion (but you know women- if they want it price doesnt matter). Got to talking about financing and a trade on our car, so they took me outside to look over our trade in. When I came back the salesmen had already signed my wife to lease telling her thats what I wanted!!! NOOO!! Leases are traps!! I got the paperwork and looked it over, didnt seem like a bad deal the way THEY explained it, but after the deal I got home and re-figured the numbers. I was paying $300/mo for 4 yrs and had to give the car back??!! Financing thru my bank was $340/mo 60/mos and OWN it...Anyway,they are slick enough to "devide and conquer".so dont let them push you around. Ends up I went back and voided the whole deal and bought the car outright.
whole thing in a nutshell: go elsewhere first, unless you like pushy slick salesmen..
