2018 Volkswagen Golf TSI S review

My dream car!

I had wanted Golf my whole life and now that I have it-it does not disappoint! It is SO much fun to drive and I have an automatic transmission! For being a smaller vehicle you can stuff a lot of things in it when needed.

Volkswagen of Streetsboro review

It was basically a five star experience.

It was basically a five star experience. Rachelle was extremely helpful both communicating and getting connected with Savannah, and Savannah was fabulous and really knows how to get things done when time is of the essence! SO great! Their manager was a little outwardly aggressive when it came to negotiating the deal, but once I identified this as just his sales presentation everything was okay. He gave me a very good deal in the end and it wasn’t even a bad offer up front before negotiating. Brian in finance was great too!

I needed a car that would fit my lifestyle, which means traveling in Philadelphia most days. This car is so compact, yet fits groceries in the trunk and two people in the back seat. The apple car play is terrific!!

Nasir my sales rep was attentive from start to finish. We encountered unforeseen issues that almost cause me to throw towel in but he would not let up. We appreciate all the hard work put in by Nasir and I am enjoying my Rav4, thanks again.

2018 Volkswagen Golf TSI SE review

Love it

Love it! Went from an Audi Q7 to this and this car is sooo damn good! I think that the inside is super nice, not flashy but not bland- it’s just subtle and mature. Everything you touch is high quality, cheap plastics on a lot of cheaper cars are left out of this car. I LOVE that I get all the benefits of a small SUV but I get the gas mileage and the ability to zip in and out if traffic with ease. This car may look like a boring hatchback but the diving experience is super fun! Just push it a little and you'll see the pep this thing packs!

Dream Autos Inc review

I recently had to purchase a used vehicle to replace my car that was totaled in a crash. This was one of many lots I visited in my search over a week's time. Like most people, I hate shopping for a car because of the well-earned, generally bad reputation of car salesmen at many dealerships. At this dealership, Tommy was great, no high-pressure sales tactics, attempts to upsell, or pressure to purchase an add-on warranty. He was friendly, kind and made the experience easy and painless!

Morong Falmouth Mazda review

We recently purchased our second vehicle from Morong in

We recently purchased our second vehicle from Morong in Falmouth, ME and this experience was even better than the first. Miah, our sales consultant, was so easy and fun to work with. Andy, the used car sales manager, was wonderful and so great to chat with about the vehicles that we were considering. We had many questions about the mechanical and electronic systems of the SUVs, and we were very concerned about reliability. Andy really knows many types of cars and the issues with the engines and drivetrains that could cause problems in the future. We felt great with our purchase from Miah and the team at Morong, and will certainly be returning for our next vehicle.

Crafts Cars review

I was searching recently for a Honda Accord for my 20

I was searching recently for a Honda Accord for my 20 year old granddaughter. I started my search at cars.com. Within a few minutes I was able to get a sense of the price range for a good used Accord. I spotted a 2017 Honda Accord with 67,000 miles at Crafts Motors in Lisbon, Maine. Most of the other vehicles had over 100,000 miles. I called the dealership and spoke to Mike Storm. He gave me a brief history of the car. We were able to test drive the car later the same day. Three days later one of his drivers met me at an independent auto repair shop. They gave the car a clean bill of health. My granddaughter purchased the car later that same day at a very competitive price. I highly recommend doing business with Mike Storm and his team mates at Crafts Motors!
