Ravi has been exceptional in providing service and made the whole process of buying a new car very pleasurable. He was very accomodative to all of my requests during the purchase. He was upfront with what the whole process of buying a new car very pleasurable. He was very accomodative to all of my requests during the purchase. He was upfront with what he could/could not do with respect to pricing. He never pressured me into making a decision and always gave me the space and time to come up to the decision. He never promised what he could not deliver. He took the time to demonstrate all the features and he went out of his way to get the vehicle that I was looking for. If you are buying a new car I would recommend the Mazda line of cars, and highly recommend working with Ravi Sapkota @ Russell & Smith before visiting any other mazda dealerships. More

Went b for a test drive, then bought a car the next week. I had communicated that I wanted a specific model and brand and that we could get together on Wed, when the sales person wasn't going to be in the o I had communicated that I wanted a specific model and brand and that we could get together on Wed, when the sales person wasn't going to be in the office for Mon & Tues. I got there on Wed, but he didn't have the car I had asked about. He had to get it from another dealership AFTER we negotiated the price. That added nearly 2 hours to the time. I was there from 11:30am-5:00pm - tough day for both of us.' The Sales Mgr (Gen Mgr), Steve, never interacted with us, which I thought was strange. I introduced myself to him after having met him the week before. He was nice, but didn't really act like he was interested in supporting Ravi's sales effort. Ravi had to go to another dealership (Deeter Mazda) to get my car. Steve finally came in at one point and said that Ravi had just called and that he was 10-15 minutes out. I do not mean to be negative about Steve; only an observation, as I watched other managers get REALLY involved with their salespeople. It felt like Ravi was left on an island, in my opinion. Ravi was GREAT. He was very involved in making sure I had all of my questions answered and I felt like he worked with me on my pricing. His explanation of ALL of the functions of the car were amazing. There are so many that I am quite sure that I will have to spend a while studying the manual. But he made it seem so easy. i was surprised that the car that I had asked about wasn't there, and that it took 2 hours to get it. That made the sales experience a little longer than I had expected, but i also understand that you aren't going to get a car from another dealership unless you are sure you are going to sell it. Ravi did his best, in that respect. Overall, it was a good, if long, experience and I applaud Ravi for his patience and salesmanship. i would definitely buy a car from him again. More

This was my fourth car bought at Russell-Smith Mazda and I'm totally satisfied. I got a great deal during the buying process, no to mention Mazda 3 is an exceptional car and looks and feels way more expensi I'm totally satisfied. I got a great deal during the buying process, no to mention Mazda 3 is an exceptional car and looks and feels way more expensive. About that, Sutoyo is a great salesperson. Despite I've gotten the best deal in Houston, his commitment for customer satisfaction is so high that he always want you with a happy face before, during and after you close a deal. He's always taking care of you, giving you a clean car, a full tank, and even with your car services reminder during the first months. For me if I'm thinking in buying a car, my option will be Russel & smith Mazda. Honestly I could do it again!. Keep it up Sutoyo & Russell-Smith Mazda! More

I was using a car purchasing perk from my employer and was connected to Russell and Smith Mazda because it was one of the dealerships used for the program. Michael Villarreal contacted me via email the ne was connected to Russell and Smith Mazda because it was one of the dealerships used for the program. Michael Villarreal contacted me via email the next day, and introduced himself. He made the car buying experience real simple and easy. There wasn't any passing the customer around to different Sales personal. I had previously mentioned to him what vehicle I was interested in (CX-9 2013), and was well pleased with the purchase. I would recommend this dealer to my family and friends. More

Professionalism and knowledge by Gilton Huggett made me very comfortable with my Mazda purchase On another occasion when I was stranded after dealership closing time, Gilton went above and beyond his ob very comfortable with my Mazda purchase On another occasion when I was stranded after dealership closing time, Gilton went above and beyond his obligations and stayed over after hours til the tow truck got me to dealership that night, so I could get a loaner car. There was an associate with him and I am sure management supported his actions to help a customer. I never expected such a level of service as I have received from this gentleman of a salesperson.
