MODERN MAZDA makes it easy

5 out of 5 starsby D Mancinone on 08/01/2025

I appreciate the outstanding customer service I received during my recent purchase of a 2025 Mazda CX-30 today. My sales consultant was Steve Duffy, his professionalism and personable nature, in an industry where high-pressure tactics can be common, was a refreshing exception. He was patient, taking the time to answer all of my questions and allowing me to explore my options without ever feeling rushed. I honestly came into the process expecting it to be difficult, but Steve made it easy. His transparency during the entire process was appreciated. I've done business with many car dealerships in my life and service like this is rare, and it deserves to be recognized.

  • Amazing service at Modern Mazda

    5 out of 5 starsby vinmazda on 09/06/2017

    My family and I were looking for a car that could accommodate our family’s needs. We had our eye on the Mazda CX-9 based on many outstanding reviews. Reviews are proving to be very accurate, as we love the car on many levels. We worked with Jose Medina who was knowledgeable, thoughtful, and provided excellent service. Jose and Modern Mazda went out of their way in effort and care to get the model, trim, mileage, and color options that we were hoping for. We would use Modern Mazda again in the future and will continue to recommend to friends and family. Thank you Jose Medina and the Modern Mazda team!

    I'm so happy with my new 2017 Mazda CX5! Thanks to Gary Sumlin and the rest of the Mazda staff for a very easy and pleasant car buying experience!
  • Great buying experience

    5 out of 5 starsby Diezalnut on 09/02/2017

    I just bought a new Mazda CX-5 (which I love) but this deal would not have happened if Gary Synott had not continued to contact me, he was the salesperson I dealt with. He was knowledgeable, patient and trustworthy. He made this deal happen without high pressure...Thank you Gary!!! I enjoyed working with Modern Mazda and plan to continue to do business with them in the future.
  • Sweet new Mazda 3

    5 out of 5 starsby happycamper on 08/25/2017

    I recently purchased a very nice Mazda 3 from Modern Mazda. I had looked at their website and picked out 2 different cars that I wanted to test drive. Upon arrival I met the sales rep John "Fish" Salmon who was very helpful and knowledgeable about the vehicles. I test drove both of them, worked out a trade in for my old car and purchased the perfect car for me. My wife likes my car so much I will probably have to return and get a new one for her as well. I will surely buy from Modern and Fish again in the future. Ed F.
  • Great place, great people

    5 out of 5 starsby RamFan24 on 08/21/2017

    Modern Mazda Dodge Ram is definitely a great dealership to go to if looking for a new truck. My sales rep "Fish" had great knowledge about Rams and is part of the reason I bought my truck from Modern Mazda Dodge Ram.

    Modern Mazda Dodge Ram Car Dealers, Auto Parts & Supplies 68 Waterbury Rd Thomaston, CT 06787 8/20/2017 The experience I had at Modern Mazda was wonderful. This was my first car through this company.  The Salesman John "Fish" Salmon explained everything to me thoroughly and made sure I knew how to work everything. He followed up with an email and also a phone call to make sure I was pleased and didn't have any other questions.  I would definitely come back again.
  • Great Staff

    5 out of 5 starsby beaconJJ on 08/20/2017

    I purchased a 2017 Mazda CX-5 at Modern Mazda and the vehicle has been fantastic so far. My sales associate, Fish, was very patient and incredibly knowledgeable not only about Mazda but also about other brands. The information Fish provided was very helpful and made me feel he had my best interest on his mind. The staff at Modern Mazda was amazing, too. They created a friendly, respectful environment that made their customers really comfortable. Thanks Fish and Modern Mazda!
  • Pleasant process to purchase a car

    5 out of 5 starsby NWCT333 on 08/01/2017

    Dealt with John "Fish" Salmon to buy a car this past weekend and felt very comfortable with the process. Fish is knowledgeable and not overly "salesmanly". I traded in a Mazda I've had for over 9 years and knew I wanted another Mazda.
  • Excellent!

    5 out of 5 starsby phildodge on 07/31/2017

    Vinny Valenti was excellent and thorough through the whole process. One of the best car dealers out there. No pushiness, no typical salesman tricks he was straight forward and honest. I you are looking for a vehicle I would highly recommend Vinny if you want a hassle free time to look and/or buy a car!

    5 out of 5 starsby gkoetzner on 07/30/2017

  • Excellent Buying Experience

    5 out of 5 starsby suluca2 on 07/24/2017

    I've been buying cars from Modern Motors for nearly 20 years. Sales and service staff have always been exceptional. Just purchased a Mazda 3 5-door. Sales associate, Kim Gelada, made the whole process smooth and efficient. She got me exactly what I wanted. I couldn't be happier with my car buying experience and I'm in love with my new 3!!!

    Great experience buying my first new car from Modern Mazda! Vinny explained everything about the CX-5 and gave me a great price. Would recommend Modern to anyone shopping for a new vehicle.
  • Great sales experience

    5 out of 5 starsby nu2diesel on 07/05/2017

    John "Fish" Salmon made our purchase enjoyable. From the first call and the personalized video tour that followed, to the test drive that let us truly test out the car, to the detailed explanation of the ins and outs of our preowned CX5. We couldn't have asked for better service.
  • Modern Mazda - Great Dealer

    5 out of 5 starsby Kathy1234 on 06/23/2017

    I was shopping for a Mazda and looking for a reliable and honest dealership after going to local dealers. Modern Mazda was just the place! Even though it was over an hour away, it was the best car shopping experience I've ever had. John Salmon (aka "Fish") took us out in both a CX 5 & a CX3. He saw the delight i had with the CX3 and followed up the next day with a personal video of the car I eventually brought. There were a few glitches during the purchasing, but John fixed the issues and kept me in the loop the whole time. Johns' level of professionalism was beyond anything else my family and I experienced during this most recent car shopping experience.
  • Great Experience

    5 out of 5 starsby mrenduch on 06/22/2017

    John "Fish" Salmon was a great sales person. Extremely knowledgeable and not at all pushy. After test driving a car he made sure to send me a video detailing the car that I had test driven and I thought it was a great touch!
  • amazing

    5 out of 5 starsby LBurr1990 on 06/23/2017

    My family and I were looking for a car that would fit our family. I kept an eye out for a minivan and when we saw one we wanted we went down. My fiance and I talked with Vinny Valenti, took the van for a test drive, and fell in love with the van. A little while later we filled out paper work and came home with our 2017 Dodge Grand Caravan SXT Van. We would use Modern Mazda again in the future and would recommend friends and family to go down and buy car. Thank you Vinny Valenti.

    I had a great experience at Modern Mazda! Jim and Vinny were extremely knowledgeable, professional and honest - making them the #1 choice of dealerships to trust when looking for a reliable vehicle. I am in LOVE with my MAZDA 6 and am looking forward to many years and miles with it. Patti Paganucci
  • Great Experience

    5 out of 5 starsby jjmarch on 06/22/2017

    The Mazda 3 we purchased was my 4th Mazda purchase with Modern Motors. All 4 buying experiences were very good, but I have to say that Vinny Valenti made this one an easy process. From understanding what we were looking for, to showing us only what we wanted to see, to giving us the space & time to make our decision. Then the actual purchasing process was as smooth as can be. Thanks Modern Motors!
  • Great experience!!
