  • They don’t like selling cars. They’d rather insult, lie and deceive!!!

    1 out of 5 starsby Jem on 04/12/2025

    I've been leasing Hondas for over 15 years. The last 3 leases I've tried to keep my money and purchasing local. Shop local right? Impossible with First Honda Simi. They just don't like selling cars apparently. It's insane the difference in monthly payments for the same vehicle, like I said they don't like selling cars and are so tight - they're impossible to work with. JOHAN is rude and thinks I'm stupid. Treated my husband differently years ago but I'm a woman so I'm sure that's why. My car is worth $31,000 on the low end up to $36,000 and I own 27,000. 2022 with 12,000 miles in excellent condition on top of it. Johan is trying to tell me I have no equity in my car and also giving me price on a car thousand more than what's listed right on the website. Insulting !!! Treating me like I'm stupid and don't know what I'm doing leasing a car- or the value of what I have! He started with no equity $3000 down $575 a month and now he emailed me $3500 down for $595 a month. What a freaking joke! It just keeps getting worse I WILL NEVER SHOP SIMI. Treating people with deceptive practices, lying, scamming and treating women like they're stupid and don't know how to lease a car. Insulting !! Years ago with Marlon and Bobby were there it was different, it was wonderful to work with them and I got a few leases there. Never again.. 3rd lease trying this time and I won't be back. Different note I LOVE the service department! Everyone is great in there! Sales team just sucks unfortunately

    • I ended up getting $4000 in equity, and got into a new car with the same down but my payment is $195 less than what Honda Simi offered. I knew what I could get and Simi just loves to try and screw people. They have this reputation through the city, and when you tell other dealerships the issues they always say “we hear that all the time.” Sad!

  • Great experience!

    5 out of 5 starsby Naz on 09/03/2024

    Johann and Bob were kind and caring. Very professional and honest. Something that’s hard to find at dealerships nowadays. I shopped around and numerous dealerships looking for the right deal and right car for months and this experience was by far the best. I didn’t feel pressured like they were just trying to make a sale. I would definitely return for another Honda!

  • Worth Checking Out!

    5 out of 5 starsby Ian K on 04/21/2024

    First Honda impressions: professional, friendly, low key atmosphere. Clean, modern facilities. Small town hospitality in Simi, a quick 15 minute drive from the West Valley. Sales rep Zabi, nicknamed "Z" was great to work with. Negotiation was brief and cordial. As with any dealer, do your homework first so you're prepared to make the best deal. Recommend putting First Honda on your list of dealers to visit.
    • Ian, we are truly dedicated to providing quality customer service in all areas of our dealership. Thank you for taking the time to notice those efforts and for leaving such an awesome review! Sincerely, Charles & Dean Honda Sales Management 805-306-1094
