April 22, 2025 Crown Acura 18911US Hwy 19 N Clearwater, FL 33764 Attn: Bill Knopke Dear Sir: I had been driving my 1996 Acura Integra for almost 30 years. With 10 grandkids and a bus N Clearwater, FL 33764 Attn: Bill Knopke Dear Sir: I had been driving my 1996 Acura Integra for almost 30 years. With 10 grandkids and a busy life I needed a vehicle with more room. I just did not want to deal with a “car salesperson experience”, I dreaded even walking on to a car showroom floor. I finally did what I had to do and showed up at Crown Acura in Clearwater. Evan Lantry introduced my husband and I to Bill Knopke. There was no pressure to buy and no fast talk. Bill was knowledgeable, answered my questions, showed me some SUV’s and explained the differences. He was very professional and patience as I needed to sell my 1996 Integra first, that took almost 2 weeks. Bill kept in contact with me, still giving me more and more information about the RDXs. It took several trips to Crown Acura for me to really make up my mind. I purchased my perfect SUV on 04/15/2025. This was such a fun and wonderful experience. On our visits to the showroom Evan Lantry always made a point to ask if he could assist in anyway, answer any questions or anything. We were always offered coffee too! We love coffee! Once we made a decision, Jay Rudio prepared all the financial and necessary paperwork. He was very professional and efficient. He explained each and every document we signed. We appreciated that. Jeremy Stebbins was prompt in getting in contact with me to schedule the 9H Ceramic Coating. He worked with me, as we had some conflict in available days, to bring our RDX in for the coating process. He also was professional and courteous and helpful. All in all, buying this vehicle from Crown Acura was a fantastic and enjoyable experience. Over the years we have heard some terrible experiences from friends and family who visited other car dealers. I highly recommend Crown Acura to anyone who wants a great experience with buying a vehicle. Sincerely, Diane and Ken Christensen CC: Mike Langel, Assistant Vice President, Acura National Sales More
