Leith Honda

Reason for Visit: Sales

I recommend this dealer: No

My Review of Leith Honda:
Visited this dealership 3 times in past 2 years. Got badgered by lot salesman every time. They will not listen and will not answer questions directly. Very difficult to negotiate with and there is no negotiation on subcompact cars (e.g. Honda Fit). "Add-on" fees are very high, e.g. "Documentation" fee is $399.00! Parts department: Prices are ABOVE retail...if you need to ask what the price is, you can't afford the part. Order online and pay up to 50% less.

My Review of Leith Honda:
We researched our last purchase online. We contacted several dealers in our area as well a the RDU area. Local dealers did not seem interested in working with us, but Leith and another dealer in Cary did. Leith offered us the best price, we completed the application online, arrived at the dealership and walked out in an hour with the car. This was the best car buying experience ever for a few reasons. One, we did the research and knew what we wanted. Two, we knew our credit and knew that we were eligible for the 2.9% rate. Three we settled on a price and did not have to haggle. Dealing with the finance manager was a breeze because I had alreay looked at warranties on my own and did not need to finance that. I would recommend people doing their research and haggling online rather than spending hours trapped at a dealership. Less stress. Good experience for me, and I will buy another car from Leith.

My Review of Leith Honda:
I had a HORRIBLE car buying experience at Leith Honda in Raleigh! Not only was I begged time and time again by the dealer to make sure to visit the website and give him a good review... after he treated me poorly, but when I told them that my bank had a better interest rate than they could give me, he told me that I could not leave by myself to go to the bank. Instead, he had to drive me there and walk inside the bank with me to try to get the loan. This is NOT the right way to treat someone purchasing a car from your establishment. You do not force yourself along with someone to their bank to overlook their private information while they get a car loan. No, I did not get the loan there. We turned around, came back and then they tried time and time again to screw me over with a terrible rate unless I paid an additional $3,000.00 for an unnecessary warrenty. It was a horrible experience! The price they quoted when I visited the first time was not the price that they gave me when my car finally arrived. I do not trust them and will never use them again! They were not straightforward when I asked questions and the dealer was not helpful at all. He wouldn't quit begging me to give him good online ratings when I got home. Haha! Of COURSE he's getting HORRIBLE ratings...they were mean, PUSHY PUSHY PUSHY and I will always remember the terrible experience at Leith Honda.
