Wonderful experience
Written by 04/06/2010
onI was pleasantly surprised by the experience that I had while purchasing my 2010 Honda Odyssey at Gilman Honda. Initially, we went there just so we could test drive the vehicle. I told the sales consultant, Kevin Hellums, that we weren't interested in buying it, just driving it. He was very respectful to our wishes and didn't attempt to sell us the vehicle. We test drove it, then inquired about used Odysseys. We went to CarMax and then determined that it would be in our best interest to purchase a new Odyssey; therefore, we went back to Kevin and informed him that we wanted the price for a new Odyssey. After receiving his price, we were up front in telling him that we were going to Gunn Honda to compare the Gillman offer with the Gunn offer. Gunn offered us their "low simple price," which was much lower than the Kelly Blue Book value...and slightly lower than the Gillman price. Since Kevin was so respectful to us during our two visits, we decided to return one last time and make him aware of the Gunn Honda price for the van. Most of this deal was conducted by my wife, who is familiar with one of the desk managers at Gunn Honda; therefore, I didn't expect Gillman to beat the Gunn price, but they did. They also had the color van that I was looking for (Alabaster Silver Metallic). Kudos to Kevin for his professionalism and easy-going attitude. I know he wanted the sale; however, he kept his cool demeanor throughout the entire experience.
