Stacy,
 
I'm a very happy new owner of a Honda Accord. Your dealership was at the top of the heap. Quite frankly from the first time I pushed the send button requesting an equote to driving away from your lot on Saturday morning, we were never treated with anything but kindness and consideration.
 
Ernie has to have provided us with the best salesmanship to fit our buying needs, low profile yet all the information and cooperation that any customer could possibly want.
 
Janelle was very helpful and informative. She processed us quickly and knowledgeable, even sold the extended warranty when I had convinced myself that I'd never buy one again!
 
We also met Mary in service and now have been convinced that EVERYONE at Honda of Keene is dedicated to their customers. You will definitley see us there as often as we have automotive needs.
 
Thank you personally, as you are aware I'm sure, first impressions are lasting. You made our buying experience enjoyable, I used to hate buying cars. It's not a bad thing anymore.
 
Thanks again,
 
Jon and Lois Reed


Hello James,

 

Thank you for making the purchase of our new CR-V happen in Keene. We feel it was worth the extra drive from Worcester for me to have your support and a great service department. Your store is also very clean and customer friendly (unlike other dealerships we visited on our CR-V search). No big pressure, whew what a relief.

And again thank you for the excellent service in selling and explaining the operation of our new CR V. Your professionalism is in great part why we bought from Honda of Keene.   

Thank you,

Laurie


Dear Stacy,

I LOVE MY HONDA !!!  

Both George and Tim should get a raise for being such GREAT people to work with. They made my experience stress free and that was very important to me.  I am still amazed that I was able to buy a car by internet and phone and have the car delivered to my driveway at the exact time expected! And your price was lower than the other dealerships I contacted. So, all in all I had an A+ experience!

And if that picture is of you and your children, you have a lovely family!

Sincerely,
Catherine

I just wanted to thank Scott in service for helping me out recently. I had my catalytic converter stolen and needed my car asap for a trip I was going on. Needless to say I was worried that I would never get the car back in time to make it but Scott got the part overnight in from Ohio and had the car ready for me by Friday afternoon. (the car got to you on Thursday morning) So, many thanks to Scott and all the folks behind the scenes that made that happen!

I just wanted to thank you and your staff for terrific service!  I hate to waste time, in fact I have been told I am impatient!  Your people got in and out quickly and with no BS!  Thank you so much!  Oh, a special thanks for sending me home with a full tank of gas!  Wow, that was great!  I love my Pilot!!! I am hooked on Pilots.  The only thing that could be better is if they made one as a convertible.  I wish your dealership much success and your staff a healthy, happy new year!  Thank you again for making this vehicle purchase for so easy! 
 
Sincerely,

This dealer was a pleasure to work with as they are dedicated to customer service. They quickly made up for a communication error by driving a car over an hour to my home town for me to test drive.

The staff from the internet manager to the finance manager were all very friendly, helpful and professional. Sales consultant, James Geniewicz, is the nicest, most professional and customer service oriented young man I've had the pleasure of dealing with in a long time. I highly recommend James to anyone putting off buying a car because they don't want to haggle with sleazy, unenthusiastic or high-pressure sales people. James will make you feel completely at ease, make your car buying experience a pleasure, and give you a good deal to boot.

My experience at Keene Honda was definitely worth the hour plus drive.

Lee,

It has been a pleasure to meet you and we appreciate your help purchasing our new vehicle.  It was nice not to feel pushed into purchasing.  It turns somewhat uncomfortable at times during the car buying process.  Sometimes like the dealer has locked the doors and not letting you leave until everyone in the place has cornered you and pushed you into a decision.  The experience with Honda of Keene has been the complete opposite.  We appreciate the friendly, professional and fair atmosphere of your dealership. 
 
Thanks again and can't wait to drive our new CR-V.

Dear George,
 
I'll be sending a letter to Mr. McLean about the absolutely fantastic experience we had today in leasing my new Civic at Honda of Keene but I wanted to get this quick note out to you first.  All of you made this transaction a wonderful experience - thank you to Don, James, and especially to you for making this a painless and easy lease. 
 
Our first favorable impression was when you greeted us at the door upon our arrival and that you already had the car pulled up and waiting for us to test drive.  Ron is usually one who enjoys bringing auto salesmen to "tears" in his dealings with them (he can be merciless) but you offered us such a great deal up front that he didn't have the heart to try to negotiate any lower price. Thank you, too, for your assistance with the leasing company relative to the fraud alert and with our insurance company for the binder - saving Ron from having to make the call. Don made completing all of that voluminous paperwork very painless - explaining everything as we went along - and James did a great job in explaining all of the features of the car - even programming in the few radio stations that I listen to. 
 
We were also extremely impressed that we were able to drive home with the car today (rather than having to return to Keene to pick it up thereby saving us another 100+ mile round trip) and couldn't believe how great the car looked when it was done being prepped - there wasn't a speck of dirt or dust to be found - your service department did a superb job.  I only wish we lived closer to Keene because I'm sure the service department would be as great to deal with for service as the remainder of your dealership was to deal with but you can be assured that the car will receive the same loving care that my Del Sol has received over the last 13 years - my mechanic in Milford is wonderful and I trust him implicitly with my cars.
 
My ride home in my new Civic was a joy and I thought you'd like to see it parked in our driveway.
 
Again, George, thank you for everything and please convey our thanks to Don, James and the folks in the Service Department.
 
Sincerely,

Honda of Keene - It was an absolute pleasure doing business with you!  Thank you for all your help!

Dear Mr. Fenton,

I have a few minutes while my car is getting some care and I am writing to let you know that the Honda Dealership is staffed by a GREAT team of people.  They are totally professional and thorough.  I'm not sure when I bought my first car here, maybe 15 years ago and I have experienced consistent, friendly and knowledgeable service.  I have loved every Honda even though I buy American as often as I can.  Randy, Greg and Michael are totally cool in the Service Department.  Lee, Jason and Donald on the sales floor have been extremely helpful in making the right purchases with fair pricing and trade-in values.

I have been in business for 35 years, 24 employees and I pride myself on having a great reputation through my employees.  We feel like a team and a "family" and our clients really appreciate the experience and say so.

I feel the same about your people here and your establishment.  Thought I'd let you now.  Congratulations and keep it up!  I'll be back.

Most Sincerely,

Michael Humphries



"I just wanted to make sure that your local Honda system knows how great I was treated today (Friday 5/15). My 85 year old mother's '05 Civic had gone dead this winter and the security system shut down the radio etc. I had called for instructions at that time and was given some procedures to follow. Naturally, I couldn't get it to work. So, Finally, I brought the car in today and Jeremy Trow was sent out to deal with it. I can't tell you in words how great he proceeded to fix the whole security dysfunction in minutes. It was apparent that if he doesn't make it as a mechanic ( no problem) he certainly knows what to do with the computer systems that run our cars today. Jeremy Trow was so excellent, and attentive in this repair. Just needed to make sure you know."

Dear Mr. Fenton,

 

I would like you to know what a superb sales staff you have at Honda of Keene.  Today, I purchased a car at this dealership, and I must say it was the most pleasurable three and a half hours I have ever experienced at a showroom.

From my initial conversation on the phone with George Thompson, to my congenial salesperson Ken Colby, to the knowledgeable and personable finance manager Donald McKinley, the transaction came together seamlessly.

Over the past few years I have been purchasing vehicles at ?mega? dealerships, due in large part to the competitive pricing they can offer.  However, purchasing a car was akin to putting on a full suit of body armor before entering the dealership, prepared to do battle.  While I ?won? the car, I was always totally exhausted by the ?experience?.

What a refreshing difference at Honda of Keene!  I was treated with courtesy and good humor throughout my time in the showroom ? and I received a great price on both the new car and my trade as well.

I thought you should know what a great team you have at Honda of Keene.  They should be commended for their efforts.

"When Arthur woke up this morning he said maybe we should go to Herb Chambers because they had a red CR-V and a white one.  When we both discussed it, we decided that the salesman came on too strong yesterday when we were getting comparison prices.  One of the things he said to us when we told him we were going to do business with you was that he spent "all that time with us". He didn't have to show us the car or take us for a test drive, that was all ready taken care of elsewhere.  After he said that, we were even more certain we would be coming your way. 
 
We are glad we did.  It was refreshing to walk into a dealership where there is no high pressure.  We felt comfortable trying to negotiate a better deal with some one as honest and forthright as you.  As far as Ernie is concerned, we feel like he is an honest guy, too, pleasant to talk to and do business with. 
 
We usually do not keep any advertising on our vehicles, but we do plan on keeping your frame around our license plate.  We really hope you sell the Accord without having to take it to an auction.
 
You must be doing something right in running the show because, in talking with some of the sales people and other employees, we could see their is a lot of harmony in The Honda of Keene dealership.  Keep up the good work."

" Normal 0 false false false MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 Armed with consumer ratings, blue book values and a 'how to negotiate a car sale' handbook committed to memory, my husband and I headed off to Honda of Keene to buy a car for our family. We were not looking forward to the task after years of bad car buying experiences with hard-sell salesmen at other dealerships. We were in for a surprise. Hal Horowitz approached us immediately, which we expected, but everything from then on was not like any car buying experience we had ever had before. We test drove two vehicles, a CR-V and an Element. Hal gave us a plethora of information on both and answered all of our questions. No pressure and no talk of money at all. When we decided on the Element and were ready to talk about price and financing we proceeded to the "negotiating" table, but to our surprise there really wasn't much negotiating. He gave us a fair price right up front and told us to think it over. No pressure and no hard sell. We had some questions about interest rates and terms and Don McKinley came out and gave us various options, allowing us to choose the financing that best suited us. Needless to say by the end of the weekend we owned a beautiful new Honda Element with a loan that we were completely comfortable with. We were amazed at the quality of the customer service and the no fuss, no pressure approach that Honda of Keene uses to sell cars. We have already told a dozen friends that Fenton Family Dealerships and Honda of Keene know how to take care of their customers. Thank you so much for the wonderful experience and we will be back the next time we are in the market to purchase a new vehicle."

"We have bought our last 5 Honda's from Laura Lee Koski, and are so very much satisfied that our last 3 were bought over the TELEPHONE!!!!!  Told her even to pick out the best color for us!  All we had to do was drive down and sign the papers and DRIVE AWAY!  And we will be on the TELEPHONE for Honda number 6 in the near future!"

-Gail Richard

"I am enjoying my 2009 Honda Civic VP.  Honda of Keene was a good dealership to work with.  They offered the best price and answered my questions promptly."

-J. Kelly - Concord, NH



"I just had the most wonderful new car buying experience of my life.  I can't say enough great things about Hal or Jason.  They both went above and beyond any of my wildest expectations.  They put up with my many, many emails and many phone calls.  I wish there were salesmen and General Managers around my area which is upstate NY.  I would gladly travel the distance again to buy a vehicle from them.  I am now a customer for life.  I am going to recommend your dealership to everyone I know.  It is so refreshing to be treated as well as they treated me.  I have always loved New Hampshire and it's people and this only confirms it.  Thank you Hal and Jason for everything.  Lunch was excellent Hal.  I appreciate everything both of you did for me."

-Ron Orlando - Oneonta, NY




?It?s simple ? You were a pleasure to do business with!  Thank you so very much for making the transition so easy!?

 -The MacLellan?s

"It was a real joy working with George to get our new car.  I was very impressed with your his technical expertise with all the details of the Hybrid.  He made it easy to understand how everything works.  His fast response, quick answers to all my questions, and smooth negotiating made buying from him and the whole Honda team very satisfying and professional."

"We are very pleased with the Honda and we look forward to many years of enjoyment with our new Civic Hybrid!"

-Dick B

"Hello!  I am just writing to tell you about the wonderful experience I had at Honda of Keene recently.  I had been looking around at dealerships in the Keene area for a car and stopped in at Honda to look at some different options.  When i arrived, Casey McBrien came out and introduced himself and asked if I needed any help.  I told him what I was looking for and he took me inside to discuss the options he had available.  Though I was not able to find a used car that appealed to me, Casey was a wonderful help.  He did not make me feel pressured at all and was truly interested in meeting all of my needs.  He was incredibly patient, as I returned several times with questions.  Finally, I decided to look into leasing and Casey explained the process to me, as I have just recently graduated from college and have never leased before.  He showed me a Honda Civic that I instantly knew I was interested in.  I kept looking around at other options, but inevitably returned to Casey and leased the Civic.  He was able to answer all of my questions and made the difficult decision ten times easier with his personality.  He made it very clear that it was important to him that I be 100% satisfied with my choice, which I am.  He even make the experience exciting and fun!  I thank Casey and Honda of Keene for making this experience as enjoyable as it was.  I have recommended Casey to other friends who have become interested in leasing a Civic after hearing how easy he made the process for me.  Thanks again!

"I wanted to let you know that my wife loves the CR-V - thanks to you, Ernie, and Jason for making this happen.  We will be back when it's time to replace the Ford in about a year and a half.  I already sent your dealership name to two friends looking to buy.  Again, many thanks on a terrific car buying experience."

-Greg

"Thanks to Ken for my CR-V!  I absolutely love it, and people are jealous!  It's nice to have the "good car" that everyone wants to drive in.  Thanks!"

-Leah

"Funny how things work...They made the whole process very smooth.  I never thought I would spend this amount of money over the web!  The no hassle approach that they showed us made it an easy decision.  Not too often you can work with a dealership and feel good about the whole deal.  Thank you!"

-Frank C.

"Thanks for everything!  I absolutely love my new CR-V!  Again, I appreciate your efficient and hard work in getting me into a new car.  You made the buying process pleasurable and easy.  I will definitely recommend Honda of Keene to any and all of my friends!"

"I always service my car at Honda of Keene and the staff is very courteous and experienced.  They take care of my car like their own."

-Srikanth G

"Hi again.  I just had to write again to say thanks to Don McKinley for helping me so much with the business and financial end of the deal.  He took his time to carefully explain everything to me and was extremely patient with me.  He didn't try to pressure me at all to buy anything I didn't need.  He helped make my new Honda buying experience a very pleasant one!"
