I have been doing business with Gettel for the past 5 years, since moving to Florida. They have been servicing my 2004 MDX, and I have been very pleased with the outcomes. Lucy Aguilar has done a fine jo years, since moving to Florida. They have been servicing my 2004 MDX, and I have been very pleased with the outcomes. Lucy Aguilar has done a fine job in recommending the neccessary services to keep my vechicle in top notch shape. I've also had the pleasure of working with Tom Marcado when a problem arose on the weekend and I was extremely pleased to find that Gettel service is open on the weekends. Most recently I decided to purchase a new MDX and chose Gettel. John Giunta represented the dealership well with excellent people skills and a true sence of being a customer advocate. I find these qualities very important when making large purchases such as a vehicle. He interacted very well with Emilio Torres in meeting all my needs and expectations. Additionally, Dave Fishburn made the "paperwork" part of the sale extremely easy. Based on my 5 year experience with Gettel's service department, I have full confidence they will keep my new MDX running flawlessly. More

My experience at Gettel Acura was above and beyond my expectations. I had visited other dealerships in the last several months in search of the perfect car for me and other dealers did not come close to expectations. I had visited other dealerships in the last several months in search of the perfect car for me and other dealers did not come close to the comfort and satisfaction that I felt the moment Michael Martin greeted me. He took the time to show me several vehicles in my price range and answered all my crazy questions. I was then introduced to the sales manager Emilio Torres who also further assure me it was the right Acura for me. He was very personable and extremely patient with me and my concerns. Even after my perfect purchase Emilio went far beyond my expectations to address some minor repairs and even provided me with transportation while my vehicle was being serviced. He was very honest and helpful from the beginning. I never thought purchasing a vehicle would be so enjoyable. I have recommend Gettel Acura to my family and friends. I truly look forward to purchasing my next Acura from Gettel. More

Extremely happy with my Acura TSX, being in sales myself I typically dislike the car buying experience, Emilio and the staff at Gettel were friendly and even stayed late on the night that I bought my car an I typically dislike the car buying experience, Emilio and the staff at Gettel were friendly and even stayed late on the night that I bought my car and unlike most dealerships I did not feel pressured. Emilio helped me to make an informed decision, gave me what I felt was a fair value for my trade in and treated my sale like it was more than just getting me into a new car to add to the numbers. I have not owned an Acura in the past and this is by far one of if not the nicest car I have owned to date. I definately will buy another Acura and definately will buy it from Gettel. More

My experience at Gettel Acura was surprisingly enjoyable. I'm always a little ambivalent about the car buying (or in this case leasing) process, and dealing with the staff at Gettel was refreshing. The sal I'm always a little ambivalent about the car buying (or in this case leasing) process, and dealing with the staff at Gettel was refreshing. The salesperson I dealt with was Emilio Torres, and he couldn't have been more knowledgeable or accommodating. Going in, I knew which model I was interested in and through my own research I had a good idea of what my lease payment should be. Emilio didn't try to sell me, or negotiate me into a higher payment. To the contrary, he was actually able to save me a little on my payment through a special only Gettel was offering. How often does a salesperson try to save you a few bucks? Usually they wear the carpet out between their desk and their manager's office before you can get any real numbers. There was none of that. Even dealing with their finance manager David Fishburn was easy and straightforward. The numbers were exactly as Emilio said they would be, and David had me signed and in my new car in no time. All in all, I was very impressed with my experience at Gettel Acura, and I know that when my current lease is up, I'll be going back to see Emilio and David. More

I had the horrible experience of meeting with Pete Mishos and Laura Lockwood yesterday regarding a 2000 Mercedes ML 320. I explained over the phone that I would be traveling 2 hours (+) in order to see the and Laura Lockwood yesterday regarding a 2000 Mercedes ML 320. I explained over the phone that I would be traveling 2 hours (+) in order to see the vehicle on their lot. When I get there I asked for Pete. After waiting approx. 15 mins, Pete immediately passed me off to Laura (I guess he thought it wasn't a big enough sale for him). Laura was hospitable all the way up to the point when she pulled the vehicle up front. First, I looked around the outside of the vehicle and there was significant deep scratches around the entire vehicle especially on right side. Being that the vehicle is a 2000, I do not expect mint condition by any means but I do expect normal wear and tear not the appearance of a "side-swiped" or "keyed" vehicle. As I was looking around the vehicle, Laura quickly stated there was a $800 "dealer fee" and mentioned their "as-is" warranty which surprised me because you would think that she would walk with me around the vehicle and give her feature, benefit and impact statements rather than giving me the impression that I am being cheated and taken advantage of! This lets me know that Pete and Laura knew very well the vehicle was in lousy condition! I have never paid an additional "dealer fee" for any car I have bought and even looking online most dealer fees were in the $300 range (At least, other dealerships tell what the additional amounts are instead of clubbing the consumer over-the-head in "caveman fashion" with an additional $800. By the way, even though this dealer would have you believe that all car dealerships charge "dealer fees" aka "COMMISSIONS" that is not true at all. I opened the doors and trunk to the vehicle and the carpet and upholstery was in horrid condition. It looked like someone played rugby in mug and drove the vehicle right after. Being that Laura stated the vehicle only had one previous owner I was totally shocked at the extreme atrocious condition. Now the kicker! Laura and I sat in the vehicle and the buttons on the left side of the center console are hanging somewhere within the inside of console so all you see are HOLES where the buttons should be! Who in their right mind is going to buy a vehicle that appears to be the recipient of a police narcotics raid? I never been in a vehicle where their were holes where your heating and cooling buttons are suppose to be! That was the last straw for me! I understand that car dealerships want to get the consumer to come to their lot but should it be at the cost of dishonesty and deception? Keep in mind that I told Pete that it would take me 2 hours (+) for me to get there, I expect Pete to be a man of integrity and make sure I am aware of the vehicle's condition beforehand. Furthermore, if the HONEST and ACCURATE condition of the vehicle was appropriately displayed in pictures on autotrader.com and/or indicated in the SELLER NOTES, I could have assessed the damage and decided not to make the trip! This dealer has the audacity to state "this vehicle is still in good shape" in their autotrader.com ad! Far from! The condition of the vehicle is so horrendous, Kelly Blue Book wouldn't even have a category for it! In poor car-saleswoman fashion, Laura got defensive when I told her that the vehicle is in extremely inadequate condition and they should really take the high road and accurately illustrate a vehicle's condition when placing online ads. I believe every consumer is OWED that right! When a car dealership's business is largely based upon repeat business and word of mouth, you really should not be misleading and deceptive to the consumer! The Mercedes ML 320 ad only had 2 pictures (none on which were from the inside!) That should have been the first red flag! In conclusion, Laura made a pitiful attempt to save face and tell me that since the vehicle was priced at auction-level that somehow justifies the wretched condition of the vehicle! This dealership would have you believe that you can not get a great deal on a pre-owned vehicle in very good condition! To my abundant satisfaction and to GETTEL ACURA's dismay, I purchased the same ML 320 from a dealer in Tampa without a ridiculous and offensive "DEALER FEE", in wonderful condition, added sun roof feature, heat/cool controlled seats, less miles, 6 disc cd changer for only $109.00 more! Even came with original owners manual! Plus, the vehicle color is black, which is what I really wanted, instead of blue! As I told Laura, deals are out there, you just have to decipher through the SWINDLERS like GETTEL ACURA! I will never ever entertain the idea of buying a car from these CROOKS! On a more positive note, I was greeted by a gentleman named Chuck whom I must say was very friendly, helpful and informative! P.S. Can you believe that Laura tried to get me to purchase another car from their lot after they deceived me so badly. Trust me, there is a reason that Mercedes ML 320 is still on the LOT, I guess GETTEL hasn't figured it out yet! More

I am so pleased with every experience I have had at Gettel Acura.... You work with my schedule and are extremely accomodating. Last year I had an issue late in the day with a motor going out in my wi Gettel Acura.... You work with my schedule and are extremely accomodating. Last year I had an issue late in the day with a motor going out in my window (I live in Parrish)- this was a Friday night. I was leaving for Orlando the next day. Lucy was able to wait for me and get the motor fixed. Amazing - these are things you don't forget. My last experience was the same - I am so appreciative to have such great people to help me with my "baby". I truly love my MDX and hope to have it for many years. When I am ready for something new - I know I will be staying with your dealership. Thanks again. More
