unscrupulous and did not honor written commitment

Before you read my review, be sure to do research on consumer reports or edmunds for tips on buying a car. This review assumes that knowledge. Try to avoid this dealership.. I went against all the edmunds reviews of this that warned me to avoid it, because they gave me a good deal for a 2010 Honda fit NEW. They gave me an internet quote and they did not honor this price! Since I dont have a car, I had to make arrangements to there.. I was excited bc I had been looking for a car for many many weeks! I get there.. theres Kuerig coffee maker.. its a standard dealership. The sales manager Joe Lynch did not honor the internet quote his staff quoted me bc he said the quote is based on "Rt 22's price gurantee which means in order to get this price you must present a competing dealership's written quote". I felt so duped! Rakeemah Jordan, the sales rep on the phone, will say and quote anything she wants online and on the phone. She literally said “bring this $500 extra discount coupon in on top of my sales quote. Joe is great. I can't honor it over the phone, but Joe will really help you out.” You always gotta negotiate for the price you want..  dont be discouraged by that! What floored me was that Rt 22 did not honor their written internet price. After feeling betrayed, I went on edmunds to get a price quote from other dealerships. Immediately I got a better price from Madison Honda. This price was 300 dollars less than Rt 22's supposed "best price" which is $1500 more than the internet quote Rakeemah quoted me. Now the price Rakeemah quoted sounded too good to be true bc the price she game me was a price you could only reach if you haggle with a salesman face to face. Rt 22 Honda is known for its gimmicks and trickery. When buying a car, shop around for a reputable dealership with good reviews.  The definition of a good dealership at the very least, is one that will honor their written commitments. But this place will tell you all sorts of lies over the phone to get you into the showroom. And give you a ton sass and attitude on top of their unscrupulous ways.
