The best car buying experience I have ever had in my last... - P George
The best car buying experience I have ever had in my last 30 years of buying cars. 1.) No pressure and 2.) No hassle. Bob "Gio" was a class act. He really tried to understand what our need was in terms of a car, and then made, what I felt was, unbiased recommendations leaving us to choose. Was very gracious and generous with his time and sharing his thoughts and views on various options. And, yes he did work with us to accommodate into what we could afford explaining pros and cons. Classy and gentleman.
Usually at the close (finance, when you sign on a million documents) is when dealers in general try to push through a million cr@p that is overpriced and does not make sense and do it in a breakneck rush that you can not think. No such hassle here. Clearly explained 3 or 4 offerings without making any recommendations, just clarifying over and over again "entirely up to you." No pushy salesmanship.
Overall, Island Acura is something I would highly recommend visiting. From the receptionists - alternating between two ladies every time we went in there - both of whom were very pleasant and left you alone, they have a very relaxed environment where the potential customer is given space to explore, think and deliberate. They do a good job of distinguishing themselves from the stereotypes of a prototypical car-dealer/dealership. If they can't help with your budget, they will not impose on you a financial burden you can't or don't want to take on. Class all around.
Bob knows Acura - I think the Instruction manual is his bedtime reading.
