To say Matthew Haiken is an innovator would only scratch the surface. Building on the dealership Leonard Haiken founded, Matthew has continued his father's commitment to customer service while modernizing the way Prestige Volvo sells cars. He recognizes the importance of online market structure and has overseen the exponential growth of the dealership since he took over. Prestige Volvo under Matthew's direction has won the notable President's Club award every year since 2006. Last year, Prestige Volvo became the #1 Volvo Dealership in the country. Although it was his vision that helped nurture such explosive growth, Matthew always brings the focus back to his clientele. As Matthew puts it, "There's no such thing as no. If the client wants it, they'll get it." This commitment to his customers has led to Prestige Volvo and Matthew Haiken's continuing success as a leader in the automotive industry.

Matthew proved to be reliable, knowledgeable and instantly responsive, especially after hours on line! The Prestige purchase price offered a considerable savings compared to other dealers. Pat Masone went out of his way to satisfy us and have the car delivered in perfect condition. The entire purchasing experience could not have been easier! More

Matthew and PJ were excellent to deal with when purchasing our second Volvo. The negotiation was fast and efficient, as was the paperwork. PJ offered to show us the new car, even though we were pur purchasing our second Volvo. The negotiation was fast and efficient, as was the paperwork. PJ offered to show us the new car, even though we were purchasing the exact same model as our old car. Everything was as smooth as could be. It is no surprise that they are the #1 Volvo dealer in the US. Jay was also excellent at handling the body shop, mechanical repairs and insurance company with regard to our old car. His knowledge of the vehicles was unparalleled and if wasn't for him and the staff at Prestige Volvo, we may have ended up back in our old car. Thank you, Matt, PJ and Jay! More

That was a Chevrolet Cavalier in 1987 when I Matt, After you and Deborah delivered my C70, I began to think about the first car that I purchased. That was a Chevrolet Cavalier in 1987 when I was 26. I purchased that car as it fit the insurance profile that would allow me to have, relatively speaking, affordable insurance coverage while existing as a single male under the age of 30 living in Brooklyn New York. Man, have times and experiences changed. Since that first car, including the C70 there has been a total of 12 new cars that I have been involved with over the last 26 years. Which of course makes for a good average of a new car almost every 2 years. With each shopping trip, I have noticed the inevitable written testimonial as to the expertise and care of the dealership that I was visiting. I have to tell you that I always looked at these with a large amount of skepticism. After all, the average persons experience buying a car is so bothersome, how could anyone be so moved as to write such a letter. Now I fully understand. A year ago, when I started this process, there was no doubt that I wanted this car. What I could not have imagined was what a great experience lay in store for me when ultimately I was able to close this deal. That Saturday in March 2012, when you had the paperwork out and the pen in my hand, and I ultimately had to pass the deal by, you were understanding and never once tried to pressure me into the purchase. As you recently told me, you knew that I would be back and you gave me all the latitude I needed to make the decision on my terms, and in fact getting the terms that I wanted that best suited me. Your showroom is welcoming, your support staff has been nothing but great and we haven’t even begun to discuss Deborah and Pat. Pat, was great. He had everything that I needed ready when I picked up the car. He made the purchase of the car, straight forward and had me taken care of quickly without any issues at all. He obviously understands even to a car buying veteran how difficult a process this can be, after all we are not talking about a can of peas. He made sure that I was comfortable with each decision, explained all of the paperwork and making sure that my final package included all the information that I need. Deborah, what a great test drive that we had. When you consider, how concerned you all were, considering that my Mom had just passed away less than 24 hours earlier, she made that afternoon a pleasure for me. She was lighthearted and gave me a chance to think about the fun side of life, in the middle of all the chaos that I was facing. Then on top of that, she was able to answer almost every question I had about the car, then demonstrating one of the best traits a salesperson can have. When she didn’t know the answer to a question, she told me to wait a moment while she looked it up. She didn’t try and come up with an answer, she took the time and made the effort to get me the right information. Outstanding! I guess the real star of the show, is the car itself. The C70 is an amazing machine. I am still learning my way around it and each day feel more attuned to its nuances. It is without doubt the single best car that I have ever purchased. I am so looking forward to years of enjoyment. Of the cars that I have purchased, this is my fourth convertible. Each time, I have gotten the next one, I have wondered if this is the last convertible that I will buy, if it is, then I have truly saved the best for last. When anyone mentions a Volvo to me, you and your dealership will always be my first response. Bob Robert H.

This is our 5th Volvo. My wife, as do I, simply love the Volvo automobile. We have been dealing with Prestige Volvo, East Hanover, NJ since our first Volvo in 2000. Everyone is always friendly and profess Volvo automobile. We have been dealing with Prestige Volvo, East Hanover, NJ since our first Volvo in 2000. Everyone is always friendly and professional, making you feel comfortable. When it come to service, they are not demanding, only recommending in optional service items. The service team is outstanding, just to mention Bill Dempsey and Patricia Sommerville, who we've dealt with the longest. Bob Knott is proving himself to be a great addition to their team. Christian Parada originally contacted me about a week ago to get our interest in getting out of our current lease, due to expire in Dec 2013, a bit early and find us a deal we were happy with. Christian then asked PJ Lee to research our current lease to see what he can do. PJ called me the other day, professionally, asking a few questions as to what we were looking for and went into action. He called me on Friday, gave me a few lease term options and left it in my lap, not pressuring me as to when I was going to come in or trying to get me to commit. We met with PJ yesterday, Saturday, he showed us a few vehicles and we decided. We re-confirmed the lease options he originally presented to me and we left in our new XC60 comfortable that we were treated fairly, professionally and respectfully. PJ was a pleasure to deal with, very knowledgeable and straight forward. He not only talked business, but personally about his nephews, who he adore's, and interests. There was no reason for haggling, going back and forth. Thanks for such a pleasurable experience, my wife loves her new XC60 !!!! Anthony Mutz More
