After visiting several other dealerships looking for Certified pre-owned, and getting very frustrated, we gave Princeton Honda a try. I first emailed to get some details, and was directed to Matt Brokaw Certified pre-owned, and getting very frustrated, we gave Princeton Honda a try. I first emailed to get some details, and was directed to Matt Brokaw, who set up a time to meet with us. The dealership has exactly what we looking for in a Pilot, and Matt was very friendly and answered all of our questions. We are very satisfied with our purchase, and had a very pleasant shopping experience. More
This is our second purchase from Princeton Honda, thanks for making this purchase just as easy. Himanshu our sales guy was super nice and accommodating to our family as for the rest of the staff as well. I for making this purchase just as easy. Himanshu our sales guy was super nice and accommodating to our family as for the rest of the staff as well. I'd have to say that I left the dealership feeling comfortable that I quickly got a good deal without too much the back and forth manager stuff. They took a good amount off the price of the 2012 CR-V and gave us more than expected for the trade. More
We were looking to lease a car. It was the best experience I had at any dealership. Every place I visited there was a lot of pressure to buy. Chay provided me with a very compeitive online quote, w experience I had at any dealership. Every place I visited there was a lot of pressure to buy. Chay provided me with a very compeitive online quote, which made me visit him. I entered the dealership with my mind set to by a Honda Civic, but ended up buying a Honda Accord LX. We test drove the Accord and fell in love with it. I was given a really excellent price / deal which was not very different from the online quote. My experience with the other dealerships was that there was always some addition to the price quoted online(that was a major put off). Chay made it possible for me to walk away with a new Honda Accord with the least out of pocket expenses. My family and me just love the car and are very thankful to Chay and everyone at Honda of Princeton for making this happen for us. I would highly recommend speaking at least once with Chay @ Honda of Princeton before you decide on your final purchase for a car. More
Overall my experience with the purchase was fine. I dealt with Joe Sheridan back in the fall when I was looking and again for the actual purchase. Although I don’t think favorably of the whole car pur dealt with Joe Sheridan back in the fall when I was looking and again for the actual purchase. Although I don’t think favorably of the whole car purchasing process and the culture it creates, I didn’t feel pressured, and never felt worked at any time. This was also true back in the fall. Lisa Madiara was the bright spot out of the process. Without her initial online quote I would not have shown up to test drive the vehicle. She also took the time to speak to my family and after the purchase went the extra mile to bring me an item left in my trade-in. I do have some criticism. Upon picking up the vehicle it was suggested that we were expected an hour later instead of the time agreed to. Waiting for the car was not a problem but the car wasn’t as clean as I expected and once home required additional cleaning. In fact there were two spots on one speaker that I couldn’t remove. Obviously not dirt so I’ve concluded these are permanent scrapes. I was also asked to sign a document that indicated the car had 10 miles on it, however, upon pick-up learned that the car actually had 47 miles. Upon driving out of Princeton Honda I also noticed the steering wheel was not nearly close to being balanced and centered. Overall the sales and negotiating was fine but the car itself left me feeling like I’ve just purchased a dirty used vehicle. More
Steve was very friendly and easy going. He did not pressure my husband and I. He was honest which made us feel safe and comfortable. A very down to earth guy. I will send business his way.

About four years ago I went to another dealership looking to purchase a new car and I almost got swindled. Luckily, my neighbor reccomended Honda of Princeton and Gary Kafitin to me. I am glad to say that bo to purchase a new car and I almost got swindled. Luckily, my neighbor reccomended Honda of Princeton and Gary Kafitin to me. I am glad to say that both in 2012 and in 2008 everyone at Honda of Princeton gave me an experience that was way above and beyond better than the first dealership. Gary Kafitin and Jonathan Dorf, not to mention Evan Perreault, are who I worked with and they all deserve ratingings much higher than a five. They stayed late to finish paperwok when I couldn't come in earlier in the evening, they were accomadating and patient when I wanted to make changes to things even after most dealerships would have said it was to late to change your mind, they were friendly and always made time to answer any questions I had, they made sure I got the best financing for my FIT in 2008 and I got an even better price in 2012(the same model,newer year). Even the service center is excellent. With my 2008 car, they did a great job fixing the tires and gave me a great price when I hit a pothole one week after I bought the car. With my 2012 car, they did an fantastic job putting on the accessories. I would and have recommended this dealership to anyone I know who is looking for another car - new or used. More
I contacted dealership via Internet, received a response within the hour. Sales associate offered to run my credit, which I knew was not the greatest and let the associate know. he responded that's ok an within the hour. Sales associate offered to run my credit, which I knew was not the greatest and let the associate know. he responded that's ok and they also deal with third party lenders and will call back with what we can work with. I than received a call from Steve Hoffman, which notified my that the car we were interested in was being looked at by another customer. He also notified me of my options, due to my credit, of how we can finance. I let him know that I was looking at other dealerships and would call him back if I was still interested. He was understanding and did not harass me to visit his dealership. After a couple of hours shopping around and not happy with inventory and or service, I went to Honda of Princeton. I was helped immediately and to my surprise the vehicle I was interested was sold. Steve was apologetic and offered to show what else they had in inventory. He spent about three hours between test driving vehicles and answering our questions. He was very patient. The particular vehicle we were interested in did not qualify for financing. Still patience he offered other avenues for financing. The time now was after 7:00 pm, which my bank was closed. Steve said no problem and let me now what to do. The following day I went to my bank and received a loan. Immediately I called Steve and let him know. Just on my word of loan approval and without a deposit he put the vehicle to the side for me. I had to work and could not return back to the dealership till the following day. Finally made it back to the dealership and finalized the sale. The car was detailed and ready to go. Not once did I feel pressure into buying. After comparing prices on similar vehicles by dealers and buy owner, the sale price was very reasonable. More
The reason I am writing this review is simple. I have been buying or leasing Hondas from Brian Watkinson at Honda of Princeton for over 10 years. This time period covers 4 different Honda Accords. He i been buying or leasing Hondas from Brian Watkinson at Honda of Princeton for over 10 years. This time period covers 4 different Honda Accords. He is extremely professional and actually fun to deal with during this normally aggravating process. Brian helped me find the car and color that I wanted that was not on their lot and in a few days i was driving away in my brand new 2012 Accord SE. I would strongly reccomend Brian and Honda of Princeton to any of my friends, family members, or anyone else looking for an enjoyable car buying experience. More
Both Sean and Maxine were great to work with. They took what could be a difficult process (buying a new vehicle) to a very easy going and simple process.
