I love my Mazda CX-5 Sport. The black model is especially sharp. The manual shift is smooth and I am averaging 37 to 38 MPG. The interior is very comfortable and roomy. The ride is very quiet and despite wh sharp. The manual shift is smooth and I am averaging 37 to 38 MPG. The interior is very comfortable and roomy. The ride is very quiet and despite what some reviewers say the acceleration is fine. The sound system and all the extra features are great too. They are very reasonably priced, and the best crossover vehicle that I found.My sales consultant was Richard Sherb. Richard gets high marks for his knowledge of the Mazda's key features. He does not use high pressure sales techniques. He allows you time to think about the purchase. He is also a person of integrity. He gave honest answers to all my questions,was patient, and made me very comfortable when I took my test drives. My only regret is that we were unable to finalize the deal together, since his salesmanship was what convinced me to purchase the car. The closing consultant was Brian Degitz. He showed me the features of the car and how to operate the systems. No problems with Brian. I just felt I should have been allowed to finish the deal with Richard. Management needs to permit the customer to wait, or reschedule their appointment if their sales consultant is serving another customer, especially if the customer has expressed the desire to close with the consultant who sold him/her the car. The customer's wishes should prevail, since he/she is the one making the purchase. Some final notes on financing and other issues. The document fees are part of the purchase price and taxable in the state of Ohio. Rebates are also taxable in Ohio. Customers with large down payments do not need GAP insurance. Temporary tags cannot be renewed, which you might want to know if you are selling a vehicle instead of trading it in to the dealership. Happy negotiating! Go Mazda! Ask for Richard when you visit Preston. You won't be sorry. More
Bad things do happen to good people. Prestons’ claim to “Finance your future, not your past” is legitimate in the sense that there are lenders willing to finance people that face financial hardship. All de “Finance your future, not your past” is legitimate in the sense that there are lenders willing to finance people that face financial hardship. All dealers have access to these lenders. The “Construction and Touchdown Sale TV Infomercials” leads you to believe that Preston is different offers great prices and has compassion for disadvantaged buyers offering “Top Dollar” for your trade and the ability to get even the most challenged credit financed. I agree that the staff is friendly and there are lenders but as we worked through the process it became more and more clear that making the sale and maximizing profit is actually “What Comes First”. As the process began you get the sense of being kept off balance as a number of people: sales agent, car appraiser, pre-finance and finance seem to be working to set you up for “The bad news”. I went in with the knowledge of what my trade was worth, what the car I was interested was worth and what I could expect for the terms of a loan and payment. All these people seemed to work in concert as they prepare you for “Their Deal”. I don’t know about you…but, I get really tired of car dealers telling you how worthless your trade is and how much you got screwed and how valuable their cars are as they are bending you over further and further… After my car was appraised I had to find my key which is a standard tactic to keep you from walking out while they work to break you down to their deal. As their deal was forming I was diverted away from the car I was interested in, moved towards a bigger loan and payment schedule, I would have to be willing to let them steal my trade, and put $1000.00 dollars down to offset the negative value (Dealer Profits) to consummate the deal. I couldn’t get out of their showroom fast enough and won’t return. When I bought the car I am driving from Fred Martin Ford in Austintown, they gave me a fair deal, got me a decent loan, and worked hard to show me the compassion and respect a person that just experienced a financial hardship deserves. Preston is just another big volume, high pressure, manipulative car dealer that keeps us all leery of walking into a dealership and wanting to buy a car. Buy your next car from Fred Martin Ford. More

I went to Preston Mazda after hearing amazing things from a close friend about the service and helpfulness there. When I arrived, it was quickly shown when I was greeted by Keith. I needed a new car, fast. P a close friend about the service and helpfulness there. When I arrived, it was quickly shown when I was greeted by Keith. I needed a new car, fast. Prior to going to the dealership I had looked at cars that were being sold online. I had in mind exactly which one I wanted. Keith was very helpful in working everything through. He kept in contact with me and made sure everything was just perfect before I drove my new car off the lot. It really surprised me when he contacted me to make sure everything was going good with the new car and to make sure I liked it a few days later. All the staff at Preston Mazda was absolutely amazing and very friendly. I would definitely recommend this dealership to my friends and family! Thanks again for everything! More

I was car shopping as the lease on my vehicle was almost over and stopped at the Mazda dealer. My daughter is driving her second Mazda and loves it so I wanted to drive one. Sean was my salesman and he "d over and stopped at the Mazda dealer. My daughter is driving her second Mazda and loves it so I wanted to drive one. Sean was my salesman and he "did it right". I appreciated his calling to check on my decision every few days ( actually why I went back ). The day I went to drive the car, I had made a deposit on a Honda Accord. When I drove the Mazda 6 I was sold. Sean and Jason worked with me on the deal and I closed it that day and drove my car out of the lot that same day. I LOVE MY MAZDA. Thank you to Sean and Jason and the staff at Preston Mazda in Boardman, OH. You have a new very happy customer. Keep up the great job, Cathy Foster More
Prior to visiting Preston Mazda my car buying experiences have all been relatively the same. An all day affair and a battle, usually leaving with a car but never feeling like I got the best deal. At Preston have all been relatively the same. An all day affair and a battle, usually leaving with a car but never feeling like I got the best deal. At Preston Mazda I feel like the entire team was working for me especially Stacy who worked hard with Bill the finance guy to get me the best deal possible. I never felt over pursued or pressured in any way and they got me out the door in record time. Overall they have given me my best experience and a great vehicle. Many thanks to them, I will recommend them to my friends and family. More

They met our needs in finding the exact Mazda we were looking for. They gave us the right amount for our trade in and came down on the price of the car. They also were willing to fix a few things about looking for. They gave us the right amount for our trade in and came down on the price of the car.
