CMA's Colonial Honda

Facebook already has my review posted, but I thought I'd share my experience here for others to read. I needed a new vehicle that had lots of space, plenty of power and good gas mileage. A friend suggested I try a 2012 Honda Accord V-6. I did, and I loved it. After deciding on the EX sedan with the V-6, I began my search. This particular vehicle seems to be a bit rare compared to the 4cyl versions of the Accord and the EX-L V-6 version. There was only one in the immediate area I live in and I never got a price quote from that particular dealer. Then came Angela Ramsey's price quote, and after reading it, I thought it was a gimmick. I didn't believe I could get a price quote as low as she gave. After we talked on the internet about the vehicle, she called me and promised that the price quoted would be the vehicle price. I scheduled an appt for that Saturday and then decided to take Friday off, secure a loan and visit Colonial. I called Angela to inform her of my intention to visit and she was more than happy to see me. When I got there, she had the car ready for a test drive and I was sold. We sat down and discussed the price and paperwork. Angela went to verify that her numbers were correct with her sales manager, came back and informed me that she was mistaken......SHE WAS $1 OVER THE PRICE QUOTED!! Needless to say, we completed the paperwork with the price that was offered over the internet minus the $1, and within an hr or so, she had sold me a new car at a price that was below anything that's suggested as an asking price. The longest part of the process was waiting for the insurance cards to be faxed to the dealer. I had to come back the next day to get the car because I din't have a second person with me. I showed up around 3 pm and Angela had the car prepped by 9 am for me to take home. At 43 years old, this is only the second car I've purchased new, but this ranks as the most satisfying large purchase I've ever made. When customers think about Honda, they think about the quality and pride that Japan puts in every vehicle. Well, Honda should be beaming with pride the way that Angela Ramsey and Colonial Honda treat their customers. Sometimes, it's hard to separate business from personal and they seem to integrate the two seamlessly. If you live in the Richmond area, or like me in the Hampton Roads area and are looking for a Honda at a truly unbelievable price with quality service, give Colonial Honda a chance to earn your business, I doubt you'll be disappointed. I have nothing negative to say about the Honda dealers in the Richmond metro area or the Hampton roads area, Colonial met my budget and buying a car from them just had that small town family owned feeling. Angela, I owe you an apology for not believing you on the phone, I hope you forgive me, you not only earned my trust but future business as well. I only hope you feel the same way. I'll let readers here know what I think about their service department when I use it, which I plan to in the future.
