BEST CAR BUYING EXPERIENCE had in 50+ Years of buying Cars! This Dealership EXCEEDED our expectations in EVERY way. From top to bottom, it was the most pleasurable car buying experience we've EVER had in 50+ ye This Dealership EXCEEDED our expectations in EVERY way. From top to bottom, it was the most pleasurable car buying experience we've EVER had in 50+ years of buying cars. The owner, Ed Howard, is the most honest, accommodating & stellar Gentleman. His EXTREMELY KNOWLEDGABLE salesman, Jim Halas, was absolutely INCREDIBLE! Between the two of them, a "10-STAR" experience & 110% SATISFACTION Rating!!! We've come to know Ed Howard, the Owner, as a very trustworthy person in our Community. It made us WANT to do business with him. He personally introduced us to the Navigator L & it was love at first sight. His entire staff is second to none, but especially his Salesman, Jim Halas. They are all extremely professional! It was surprising to find such an unbelievably polite, knowledgeable, trustworthy & dynamic staff. They couldn't have been nicer, or more helpful, or more ACCOMMODATING in anyway. They really made it a PLEASURE when buying this vehicle! From the Owner, to the General Mgr., to the Salesman and finally the Finance Mgr., they truly have a winning combination! We look forward to doing business with them again in the future!! 10**********'s!!!!!!! More
Fantastic experience! Looking at Cadillac, BMW, Audi or Mercedes? Stop!! Traded my 2012 Cadillac CTS for the beautiful Lincoln MKZ 3.7. It's AMAZING! The technology and ret Looking at Cadillac, BMW, Audi or Mercedes? Stop!! Traded my 2012 Cadillac CTS for the beautiful Lincoln MKZ 3.7. It's AMAZING! The technology and retractable panoramic roof sealed the decision on this vehicle. My salesman Dana went way above and beyond to get me into "exactly" what I wanted and at a price-point I preferred. Let's be honest... It's a sexy, fast, eye-turning car! I've purchased 6 luxury cars in 10 years and this was by far the most streamlined process. I highly recommend Ed Howard Lincoln and look forward to what Lincoln will have to offer in the next couple years. More
This was our first time buying a car from long distance (800 miles away). So it was a bit worrisome for us. Jim Halas made the transaction so simple and kept us informed of every details involved in the (800 miles away). So it was a bit worrisome for us. Jim Halas made the transaction so simple and kept us informed of every details involved in the process until we showed up 2 days later. Everything went so smooth. The distance to this dealership might be a bit of a stretch for us (a lot), but with such service we will certainly consider them again the next time we purchase a car. Thank you Jim. Elizabeth More
My initial relationship with this dealer was very bad, but after going to dealer and test driving a car of interest and informing Tom of my bad experience, he responded professionally and assisted me in t but after going to dealer and test driving a car of interest and informing Tom of my bad experience, he responded professionally and assisted me in the purchase process. I still paid more than I wanted, but I needed a car and was not interested in getting into a long negotiation process. Tom did a good job and overall experience was good. More

We moved to Florida a year ago and started bring our car to Ed Howard Lincoln for service. Everyone has been friendly and completely professional. Lenore explains everything that they do to the car and alwa to Ed Howard Lincoln for service. Everyone has been friendly and completely professional. Lenore explains everything that they do to the car and always follows up with a phone call to make sure we were satisfied with our service and if there else she can do for us. Steve Fine also stops by the waiting room to make sure every thing is going okay with our service and if we need anything. We were traveling on I-75 coming back from Miami when we hit a 5 gal. bucket of paint sitting in the road. The bucket was stuck under car which we managed to remove. We took the car to Ed Howard so see if we had any damage under the car and Steve and Lenore immediately took the car back and put it up on the rack and made sure a thorough inspection was performed.. Lucky for us all was well . More
Being a walk-in new customer at Mazda, I am writing to tell you the great experience I had at your dealership in Sarasota. Buying a car as a woman can be a difficult task due to the male chauvenism that w tell you the great experience I had at your dealership in Sarasota. Buying a car as a woman can be a difficult task due to the male chauvenism that we can encounter. None of which I found at this dealership. Everyone was very accommodating, professional, kind and staff always went the extra mile to satisfy the customer. I was very impressed with your staff's knowledge to make the process of buying a car a smooth operation- from sales to the closing! A very nice touch: Adam continually checked in on us to answer questions, made sure we did not need anything and made sure the staff was on task. Kiddos to Adam!! I returned to check a indicator light problem and was given the same professional, informative and kind service from the manager to the service man. "I will spread the word about Ed Howard Mazda dealership !!" Thanks to all the staff. I am sure I missed a few names. Dayle K. Renalds More
