Michael quickly made time for me and expertly showed I was in the market for a new car, Wilde Honda was the most responsive out of three dealerships. Michael quickly made time for me and expertly showed me the 2016 and 2017 CR-V family. I was able to get more car for the money as well as a stress-free car buying experience. The whole team is great and customer focused. Love way each of them is willing to jump in to help any of the others. Very refreshing! Ask for Michael, he’s the best!! More

Awesome Communication We inquired the dealership about a certified used Civic Si they had on the lot, and Michael replied back to us the same day letting us know it was sti We inquired the dealership about a certified used Civic Si they had on the lot, and Michael replied back to us the same day letting us know it was still available and we set up a time the next day to go down from Tampa and test drive the car. We let him know when we were leaving, and he held the car for us to ensure it was still available while we were on the trip down. Michael was extremely friendly, and was able to answer all our questions about the car buying process. We didn't feel any pressure to purchase the vehicle, and he went out of his way to make sure we got a good deal on the car. Michael made the process of buying a car very smooth, and efficient. His team was even able to get us a better rate on our loan than the one we had from our credit union! I wouldn't hesitate to purchase another vehicle from him, and would highly recommend him as a salesman! More

Great overall experience We called ahead of time looking for certified pre-owned Honda CR-Vs. We spoke with Kim, who was very helpful and informative. It was our first day of We called ahead of time looking for certified pre-owned Honda CR-Vs. We spoke with Kim, who was very helpful and informative. It was our first day of car searching, so Kim was able to show us multiple vehicles of interest, which we got to test drive as well. When it came to pricing, the dealership was very straightforward about the cost of the vehicle, tax, dealer fees, registration fees, etc, and even worked to help us get the cost down a bit. No pressure to buy that day, including the usual "what can I do to earn your business today?". 2 days later we had reevaluated our budget, and called Kim to let her know we wanted to come back. She helped us get the price down a bit more towards our budget line, and was very helpful with making sure the vehicle was cleaned up and filled with gas before we even arrived. When we got there it was waiting for us right outside the front door. We met Kim, filled out a few forms, and met with Yani to inspect the vehicle. Yani was very helpful as well. She showed us all the features available to us, which we were not accustomed to after driving 2001 and 2004 model cars to date. Afterwards, we met with Steve to fill out our final paperwork. Steve was very efficient in explaining what each piece of paper was for, and was very friendly. When it came time to pay, we were presented with the agreed upon price we negotiated over the phone earlier that day; no unexpected fees, no inflated price. In fact, the price came down a bit because the estimated price to register the car was higher than expected. They could have stuck the extra cost on us. They didn't. When it came time for extended warranties, Steve laid out all of our options, and even suggested that we decline some of them as they were less applicable. When we respectfully declined the other offers, there was no pushback. By the time we were done, we had a real metal license plate on the car and registration in the glove compartment, no temporary documents. Overall, we had a very pleasant, stress free experience. We felt very confident in our purchase, as the certified pre-owned vehicles undergo rigorous inspection for the certification process, which also extends the bumper-to-bumper warranty by 1 year/12,000 miles, and the powertrain warranty by 3 years/30,000 miles (I believe these values are accurate). The staff was all very helpful and laid back. We were never made to feel pressured to do anything we weren't ready to do, which is very different than most other dealerships. I would absolutely recommend Wilde Honda, Kim, Steve, and Yani to anyone looking to purchase a vehicle, and would definitely return in the future. More

What a difference I've bought more cars in the last 20 years than a sane man should, and have delt with some good and some not so good dealers and sales people. My expe I've bought more cars in the last 20 years than a sane man should, and have delt with some good and some not so good dealers and sales people. My experience with Larry Briden, as well as everyone I dealt with at Wilde Honda, was amazing. The most low pressure relaxed atmosphere I could have imagined. A manager, Greg Cox, stopped in early on in the negotiations and was straight forward, here are the facts and numbers, and no pressure. Even the finance guy, Stephen Morris, was a nice guy. Seriously, a non-pushy, nice guy in finance? This does not take into account the incredible deal Stephen got me for my financing. (Thanks agian for that Steve) My wife was at my with me the whole time and even she never felt the least bit anxious. We love the used Tacoma we took home, Wilde Honda was such a great experience that I highly recommend anyone looking for a car in the area, new or used, stop in and talke to someone. Thanks agian Larry, Greg, and Stephen; Trevor and Stephanie Bradenton, FL More

Customer friendly dealership First time at the dealership and we were met by Michael, who was courteous and cordial. We liked him right away. Knowledgeable when it came to pres First time at the dealership and we were met by Michael, who was courteous and cordial. We liked him right away. Knowledgeable when it came to presenting his product and he did not come off like some "pushy salesman" He was extremely attentive to detail and even though he was dealing with several other customers , he was always available when it came time to ask questions and to sit down to "do the deal" Stayed with us throughout the whole process; which ended with our purchasing a Certified pre-owned Honda Pilot.

Our Salesmen Michael is a family friend for 7 years and he helped me with the entire process, step by step. He's helped my family with all our vehicle purchases at Honda. He sold my Fathers and Mothers car also and is someone trustworthy you can count on if your interested in purchasing with Honda. I couldn't recommend anyone better than Michael for Honda. More

When I clicked on the dealer contact link I received a text within 5 minutes on superbowl sunday night at 6:45pm. Wow! The salesman was polite and courteous and NOT high pressure. His name is Diego Barona. A fair price was offered and I drove 200 miles to see this car. It was as nice as described and the deal was made.

Great Sales Experience! On February 1st and 2nd, 2017, I had a great experience with the sales staff at Wilde Honda Sarasota. GSM Jay Alexander and Sales Representative Mart On February 1st and 2nd, 2017, I had a great experience with the sales staff at Wilde Honda Sarasota. GSM Jay Alexander and Sales Representative Martha Calero were exceptional. Both of these individuals made the car buying experience very pleasant and with little to no stress. I certainly would recommend that you meet them yourselves on your next new or certified used vehicle purchase. By the way, I drove off the lot with a beautiful white 2014 Honda Accord model with less than 35,000 miles. And, I traded in a 2004 Mercury Grand Marquis that had way too many miles on it. I think the trade-in was more than what I ever expected. Stop by and see these folks, they'll really work with you! Thanks to Mr. Alexander and Martha....I really appreciate the assistance from both of you! I'll see you again on the next time, too! More
