Terri was very personable and good at putting us at ease with the process and helping us learn about the vehicle. She was also good at listening to what we were looking for and did not try and "up" sell us on features or services until we inquired about them. This is important as our experience at other dealerships was not this way.

After my disappointing search in Washington, we looked to our neighbor state, Oregon, to find a good, used car in our budget with an affordable monthly rate. I contacted the Internet Sales Mgr., Amanda B., via internet and received pleasant and informative contact right away. We then made an appt. to drive down the following day to view and test drive the car I had found on their website. We were referred to another Mgr who introduced us to our sales person Myke Thompson. Myke was fantastic from the get go. Polite, real, genuine & personable.....he did not come on strong or pushy in the least. Before test driving he made smart recommendations for me to adjust mirrors, rear view mirrors, get acquainted with the vehicle before test driving. No other salesperson had done that before...so it was a 'catered to' experience that was well received. Even though it was a Honda dealership, my vehicle of interest was a used Jeep Grand Cherokee and Myke was very knowledgeable about the Jeep, which was helpful. Myke provided us an extra spare key for our vehicle and a cable for our ipod. Car was washed and cleaned, filled up with gas, mats back in place and waiting for us after our purchase..Myke saw us out and made sure we had all of our answers we needed. Everyone went the extra mile, no pun intended! It was quite fun driving my new 'used' car back to Washington that evening.
Beaverton Honda dealership facilities are clean, updated, stylish and well appointed meeting/negotiating spaces, large TV, pleasant music, beverages, coffee, etc. It was very comfortable there while we needed to wait for our great selling experience was finished. Don Holden was fantastic, hard working and patient with us; he didn't want us to drive our rental car back! Don let me ring their 'sold' bell after our purchase and all the staff applauds and cheers...pretty funny.
Although we live the state of Washington, I will now include Oregon's Beaverton Honda in my searches for future vehicle purchases.
