Tampa Honda

I had overall a horrible experience at Hondaland in Tampa, Hondaland lied to me and my husband to sell us our new 2011 CRV-EXL instead of a 2012 in October 2011 by telling us that there was NO differen Tampa, Hondaland lied to me and my husband to sell us our new 2011 CRV-EXL instead of a 2012 in October 2011 by telling us that there was NO difference except a few cosmetic changes between the 2011 and 2012 so we should take the lease deal on the 2011 instead of waiting for a 2012. They said they were not on the lot yet. Just a month or so later Hondaland sent us one of their mass mailings about how dramatically changed the new 2012 CRV was from the 2011 with now standard fog lights, backup camera and econo mode engine features along with other upgrades.. plus.. the lease payment was much less now for the same car, and at other Honda dealerships we received mailers indicating even less payments and no down payment required.. we had put $2K down and were paying well over $100 per month from what they were advertising to same lease on 2012 CRV! We were disgusted and let them know the answer basically was "uhh"... or in effect so what... More

Dealer very annoying and actually almost eliminated themselves from my search process. Calling me every hour and several times, calling me three times within five minutes, in spite of my request for t themselves from my search process. Calling me every hour and several times, calling me three times within five minutes, in spite of my request for them to stop calling. I was considering paying 500 more at another dealer because of the number of calls I received. I doubt if I would ever consider going back to that dealer when it is time to replace one of my other cars. To who ever reads this: PLEASE DO NOT call me with an apology or explanation. NO CALLS PLEASE. More

When we asked, they said you signed the papaers for it. Its been a month now, I am still getting letters from banks. More

My daughter and I had a positive experience at Tampa Hondaland. She is thrilled with her new Honda Civic. I wish the dealership rating process was easier - I really don't want to register just to answe Hondaland. She is thrilled with her new Honda Civic. I wish the dealership rating process was easier - I really don't want to register just to answer a short survey. I think a mail-in survey would be easier. Also - a suggestion for improved customer service.....this is the first vehicle I ever purchased where all of my papers were handed to me in a a white business envelope. The small business envelope was really not large enough to hold all of the papers so I just kinda crammed them in there. All of the dealerships I have bought cars from in the past gave me at least a folder that would easily hold my paperwork. I actually thought the finance guy was kidding when he handed me an envelope to put all of my papers in.......he wasn't kidding!!! More

The service department is excellent, makes it a pleasure to bring your car in, which is normally not pleasant. Sales, Paul, and the sales team including the sales manager and the finance dept., made it as to bring your car in, which is normally not pleasant.

We had very bad experience with Tampa Hondaland dealership. The reason we went to Tampa Hondaland because my friend bought a car there. We went there in Dec. 20 and asked Gary Drews if can give us dealership. The reason we went to Tampa Hondaland because my friend bought a car there. We went there in Dec. 20 and asked Gary Drews if can give us same price as my friend. He said the Manufacture suggested sale price went up $1000 every year, then he print price sheet from 2009 to 2011. We found the price in 2009 is little higher than 2011. We also found the sticker price(price on car window) he shown to us was even higher than the real price shown on the cars. He didn't believe me when I told him the price was wrong, then we went outside to check. He just realized he was wrong and offered a new price to us. We didn't buy a car this time because we didn't trust what he said. A dealer even doesn't know the price for a car he is selling and says anything he wants. How can they give you a reasonable price?

I have now bought two vehicles at your dealership both through the internet. I have found buying this way, I get the best price with no hassels this way, its fast and easy. The only reason I gave you a 4 through the internet. I have found buying this way, I get the best price with no hassels this way, its fast and easy. The only reason I gave you a 4 is I had stopped in and recived a price on the vehicle I eventally bought that was higher than what I got thruogh the internet, that I did not appericate. Otherwise your dealership is great I only wish it was closer to my house. More

This was the best car buying experience I've ever had. Darius was straight forward and no nonsense. I feel like I got a good deal on the car and I didn't have to deal with silly games (running back and f Darius was straight forward and no nonsense. I feel like I got a good deal on the car and I didn't have to deal with silly games (running back and forth for the manager) to do it. We worked the deal over the Internet and the out the door price was agreed upon before I ever set foot in the dealership. I will totally recommend Darius Carson and this dealership to my friends looking to buy a Honda. Thanks! More
