Had nearly 10 emails with them and they never mentioned "administrat "administrative fee" on me. They refused to take the administrative fee off. xx!

I went to the Nalley Acura dealership in search of a used Acura MDX and was looking to trade in a used Yukon. I dealt with a very personable salesman, Antonio Gary, and was initially pleased with our dealin Acura MDX and was looking to trade in a used Yukon. I dealt with a very personable salesman, Antonio Gary, and was initially pleased with our dealings. He didn't have any used MDX's that were of interest to me, but he did show me a few other used cars that I was able to test drive. I decided against the other cars and asked him to contact me if he got any other MDX's in inventory. Antonio called me several days later to say that he had just received a 2007 MDX Sport with 50K miles and the sales price was $27,900, so I went in the next day to look at the car and take it for a test drive. Antonio was busy with another customer when I arrived so he asked a co-worker to show me the car. His co-worker showed me the car and emphasized the fact that his dealership had done over a $1000 worth of work to the car in order to get it into condition to be classified as "Acura Certified", which meant the warranty on the car would be extended. He even pointed out that they had put brand new tires on the car. When I looked closely at the tires, I noticed that they were not the Michelin tires that were standard on all the MDX's, but were some unrecognizable, third rate brand (in other words, they were junk). I mentioned that it would cost me an additional $1000 to get 4 Michelin tires put on the car and would need to take that into consideration if I purchased the car. After taking the car for a test drive, I decided I would like to purchase the car, assuming they gave me a decent price for my Yukon. When we sat down to begin negotiations, the salesman brought over his manager, Fred McClure, to do all of the talking. He put down an official worksheet showing the selling price of the MDX minus a discount he would take off of the asking price, minus the trade in allowance for my Yukon, plus tax and an administrative service fee. I looked at the selling price, which said $28,991, NOT the price of $27,900 that Antonio quoted to me over the phone. When I questioned Fred about that, he tried to brush it off as if it didn't matter. I told him that I wanted my husband to take a look at the car before I purchased it, so we made an appointment to come back the next day. When I got home I decided to do some pricing research on 2007 Acura MDX's and I found this exact car on a National Acura website where all Acura dealerships can advertise their inventory. The VIN # on the car matched exactly and it was the same dealership, Nalley Acura on Cobb Pkwy. The only difference was the price......the asking price was $26,991......$2,000 less than the Fred McClure asking price. I called Antonio the next day and told him everything that happened and said that I would never do business with such deceitful and dishonest people. He asked me to speak with Brian Echols, the branch manager, and explain what happened. Speaking with Brian only resulted in hearing more lies from this dealership. First he tried to tell me that they had the car in inventory for such a long time that they decided to lower the price to $26,991 and Fred must not have been aware of that. I told him that Antonio said they "had just gotten the car in" on the day he called me, to which he replied "well, he must not have known that we had it in inventory." Then he tried to tell me that they had just lowered the price the day after I was in the dealership. I told him that was also a lie, because I saw the car on the website the same day of my visit. Every time he opened his mouth, he lied. Then he tried to convince me to do business with them by saying they "would make it up to me." I told him that I don't do business with liars or cheaters and he could keep his car! My experience with this dealership was the nightmare story that you always hear about and hope never happens to you. Stay away from Nalley Acura!!! More
My husband and I are in the market for a used Acura TSX, so we decided to visit Nalley (waste of time and gas). Although we were able to test drive the car, Charlie Barlow did not make an attempt whatsoeve so we decided to visit Nalley (waste of time and gas). Although we were able to test drive the car, Charlie Barlow did not make an attempt whatsoever to negoitate prices. His demeanor was very flat as if to say "take it or leave it" even after we mentioned a huge down payment. He continued to say this was the best he could do and could not lower the price or he would lose out. If you are ready to pay the asking price on the window without any possibility of receiving a price decrease then go see Mr. Barlow. More

Brian Echols was my first contact with Nalley. Over the telephone he answered every question I had about the three vehicles I was interested in. I drove to Nalley still undecided as to which vehicle I wan telephone he answered every question I had about the three vehicles I was interested in. I drove to Nalley still undecided as to which vehicle I wanted if any. Ken and Brian patiently answered my questions treating me with respect and not pressuring me in any way. When I made my decision, the deal was consummated efficiently. We arrived at a mutually satisfactory price quickly and the paperwork was completed with Rene in an efficient, professional manner. That completed, Ken showed me the salient features of the vehicle and set security items(door lock/unlock)to help protect me. He went with me on a test drive to demonstrate the paddle shifting feature. Every employee I encountered at Nalley was polite and accommodating. I was offered food and soft drink/water on numerous occasions during my stay there. This is the second vehicle I have obtained from Nalley and certainly will consider returning there if/when I need another vehicle. The attitude/service there far excedes other Acura dealerships I have encountered. More
After taking my son's 96 Acura TL to the local Honda dealership in Cartersville where they could not fix the car, I decided to take it to Nalley Acura. Al McGowan was very nice and valued my business. dealership in Cartersville where they could not fix the car, I decided to take it to Nalley Acura. Al McGowan was very nice and valued my business. Before installing a timing belt and fixing an oil leak that I had asked them to do, they called me to tell me that their diagnostics indicated I was having a transmission problem. So I decided not to invest any more money in a 15 year old car that was having transmission problems. I picked up the car later that day and they Al didn't even charge me for the diagnostics work!!! Fantastic service from a great guy. My experience from both the Nalley Acura and the Nalley Lexus dealership has been fantastic. When other mechanics or dealerships were not willing or able to tell me what kind of problems that my cars were having, both of these dealerships were comprehensive and straight with their diagnosis enabling me to make an informed decision about fixing my car. Thanks. More
