When I walked into Germain Mazda and told them that, expained exactly what I wanted, and asked for their very best quote they did exactly that. Not once did they question my choice or try to sell me something else - which is what Byers did...Ricart didn't seem the least bit interested in my business. The guys asked for my business and stood behind that. As a woman, many people told me to bring a man. Not necessary at this dealership; respect is their priority and they earned mine in return. Germain Mazda employs people who are honest, caring, and enjoy what they do. I anticipate that my future interactions with Terry and the other staff will be positive as well (so much so that less than 24 hours after buying my car I have already confidently recommended them to a friend.)

He was very understanding of my needs, he wasn't pushy and really listened to what I was looking for. He found me a few different options and let me decide what I wanted. He answered all of my questions and was HIGHLY personable. The staff, in general, love working there. You can really tell that they love working for the company and what they do. They provided excellent service and I didn't feel pressured to make a decision. I did end up buying a car but not because I was pressured into it. I would highly recommend this dealership and I would highly recommend asking for Rusty. Best experience with a dealership! More
Fantastic service from Bo and Germain Mazda. I was quite impressed with the efficacy and amicability of the sales team at this establishment. From the time that I stepped in until pulling out in I was quite impressed with the efficacy and amicability of the sales team at this establishment. From the time that I stepped in until pulling out in my new Challenger, I felt very satisfied with the interactions I had with the crew. Bo, the salesman, was informative, congenial and down to earth. His friendly approach was very welcome, especially considering that he was handling two clients at once. Id highly recommend his services to anyone looking to purchase a new vehicle. The offer I received was directly in line with my stated budget and desired payment options. Damon attended to the financial transaction and was extremely affable and helpful. Everything he explained was clear and concise, and I felt no undue pressure to purchase anything I knew I couldnt afford. I truly had no intention of buying a car that quickly, but the stars aligned and I couldnt be happier! More
Flexible, helpful and honest I went into Germain knowing I wanted the Mazda 3, but I was looking for a better customer experience. I had two negative experiences at Byers and Rica I went into Germain knowing I wanted the Mazda 3, but I was looking for a better customer experience. I had two negative experiences at Byers and Ricart and was just wanting someone to work with me a bit more than the other dealers. Terry was helpful and honest. He was straight up about cost and fees and worked with me to make the car work in my budget. The service Terry and the Germain team provided me was (and likely will continue to be) great. More

It was like dealing with family m At 62 years of age, I have dealt with many car dealers...most were weasels. This dealership is a refreshing change. It was like dealing with family members..honest and kind. I would highly recommend visiting this dealer and especially the two salesman Terry Johnson and Tim Nilsen. They both were excellent. More

I was in a bad car accident July 4 2014 and totaled my car so I was on the hunt for a new one. Told him my price range and what I wanted to pay a month. We found a car I fell in love with and he did everything to hold onto it while we got everything settled with the insurance. never once was too pushy and even after I bought my car has made sure everything has been okay! Def recommend Rusty! I will probably never go anywhere else to purchase a vehicle again. More

Respectful, helpful, and thoughtful. A great experience. We started shopping for a new car seven months ago, and needed quite a bit of time to research and study all the possible makes and models available t We started shopping for a new car seven months ago, and needed quite a bit of time to research and study all the possible makes and models available to us. Terry patiently walked us through what we wanted to test drive. We came back six months later and changed our minds to a different class of car and he never applied any pressure. Although a deal did not materialize right away, he let me know about a new financing offer the following month that saved me some money. Throughout the sales process, Terry recognized and respected that we didn't want to be sold a car, and that we needed time to reach our own conclusion. We wish all our big purchases could unfold as pleasantly as our experience at Germain Mazda. Thank you, Terry! We're proud to recommend you. More
Excellent purchasing experience! I was interested in a pre-owned certified Mazda. Terry detailed the features of the car and patiently explained the pre-owned certified warranty and c I was interested in a pre-owned certified Mazda. Terry detailed the features of the car and patiently explained the pre-owned certified warranty and coverage to me. He is definitely the opposite of that kind of person who would do anything to trick you into buying their cars! Everything is transparent and honest. Damon was also nice and helpful. Manager Sonny Sosniak was friendly as well. He came to greet when I came in. When I met him, for some reason I could see the resemblance between him and Channing Tatum lol! The over experience was great and I would definitely recommend this dealership. More
A great experience while purchasing a vehicle. As most people know, buying a vehicle can be a daunting task. You spend hours browsing different dealerships and models, then still worry about whethe As most people know, buying a vehicle can be a daunting task. You spend hours browsing different dealerships and models, then still worry about whether or not you're making the right decision. I know people that have driven Mazda vehicles, and all of them highly recommended getting one. I spent the week leading up to the day I purchased the vehicle online discussing options with Bo Stranzin, one of the sales associates at Germain. So, I finally decided to purchase another vehicle. My family and I were greeted at the door by Bo Stranzin. He welcomed my family like he had known us for the last twenty years. An appointment had been made a couple days prior to view the car I was interested in, a 2013 Mazda 6. Mr. Stranzin had the vehicle ready and we almost immediately went out for test drive. Bo Stranzin did an excellent job explaining the features of the vehicle and made some good conversation about the area, my family and I not from the Columbus area. After the test drive we heading back to the dealership. Next, came the part we all enjoy, cost. While initially the vehicle was outside of the price of what I was willing to pay, who really wants to pay more then they have to pay? There were no pressure sales techniques used, Mr. Stranzin asked what price we thought was fair. Then Mr. Stranzin spoke with the GM at Germain, Mr. Sonny Sosniak, and after a few conversations we were able to come to terms on a price. Neither Mr. Stranzin nor Mr. Sosniak attempted to pressure me into buying the vehicle at a price I wasn't comfortable. After a price was reached I then moved into the financial office with Mr. Damon Shorterage. He did an excellent job explaining the contract terms and warranties for my vehicle. It was a short visit in the financial office, but Mr. Shorterage was professional and friendly. Bo Stranzin meet us at the door on our way out and thanked us, it was like saying goodbye to a friend. It was a great experience overall. I was able to get the vehicle I liked at the price I wanted. If you are interested in a Mazda, I would recommend going to Germain Mazda and ask for Bo Stranzin. More
