Here's a recent customer review on Honda of Gainesville: 

"We have always serviced the car here, and they have always been super-courteous, organized, careful and I think the prices are reasonable. It might be a bit cheaper at a Tires Plus etc but I feel that it's well worth the fact that they know the vehicle inside and out and have a reputation that they will stand by. Anyway, Honda's don't require a lot of maintenance; I had to junk my 8-year old Chevy Venture with a perfectly good motor and body because the maintenance costs were unbearable. [Remove the motor to change the spark plugs, replace the door to fix the power window.] The waiting room is nice and they will give you a courtesy-shuttle."

Thanks for the feedback!

Keep your child safe during Child Passenger Safety Month

September is Child Safety Passenger Month, and child safety in the car is always a top priority. Here's a quick, simple checklist to make sure that your child passenger is safe during your next errand:

1. Right Seat

Check the label on your car seat to make sure it’s appropriate for your child’s age, weight and height.

2. Right Place

Keep all children in the back seat until they are 13.

3. Right Direction

Keep your child in a rear-facing car seat for as long as possible, usually until around age 2.

4. Inch Test

A properly installed seat will not move more than an inch.

5. Pinch Test

Make sure the harness is tightly buckled and you are unable to pinch any excess webbing.

Honda introduces the all new 2013 Civic Type R

For most consumers, the Honda Civic is a vehicle that will do its job as a compact car; it can provide good mileage and a solid driving experience, but it’s not the first car you'll look at for sportiness.  This might change soon, as Honda will soon be launching the Type R, a new twist on the Civic that will debut initially in Europe.  According to Takanobu Ito, president of Honda, offering customers “something sporty” is very important for the Japanese manufacturer.  The Type R is a higher-performance Civic hatchback that should eventually be sold domestically.   Another vehicle, a yet-unnamed compact SUV, should also hit European retailers soon, according to Honda.

Honda has been developing Type R vehicles for close to two decades now and their experience is definitely trust worthy.The Civic Type R like all its other siblings sport the red Type R badge on its back and this makes the vehicle look even better than the original.

As a sportier hatchback, Honda should be joining manufacturers such as Ford, Hyundai and Volkswagen in adding excitement to a car class many consider unexciting.  The compact SUV, on the other hand, will be based on Honda’s existing Fit/Jazz subcompact cars.  Still, Honda hasn’t revealed any specifics on the Type R or the compact SUV, except for the fact they will be first launched on European soil.

We've Received a 5-star Review on DealerRater!

Here's a recent customer reviews on Honda of Gainesville:

"This is our sixth Honda Accord, and from time of arrival to leaving in new car was less than two hours. We really appreciate that Olumide was straightforward and well informed, and the sales managers were friendly and not too pushy. The car we wanted was parked right out front, like it was waiting for us. We like the new features of the 2013 Accord, and it is parked right next to our 2009. (We traded a 2003).

We had test drove the Toyota Camry Hybrid in late August, and were ready to buy. Our experience at the Gainesville Toyota dealership had us running into the pouring rain (they held the keys to our trade until it was storming.) They played every one of those dumb games about financing, value of trades, hanging on to keys, special deals. Argggh. We were paying cash, and we just wanted to buy a car.

Thanks for not doing all those things."

Thanks for the feedback! We appreciate our customers!
