I rated Tameron Honda in this manner because of the experience my spouse and I received during our recent purchase. I consider myself to be somewhat knowledgeable when it comes to buying a new vehicle experience my spouse and I received during our recent purchase. I consider myself to be somewhat knowledgeable when it comes to buying a new vehicle because of the extensive research I perform prior to stepping foot onto any dealership lot, and buying from Tameron Honda, my approach was no different. I was able to negotiate my new vehicle to $6000+ below MRSP because I had all the numbers I needed. Also, once I established an out-the-door price for the new vehicle, I negotiated my trade-in and Tameron Honda wanted to give me $1000 less than what I owed on it; fortunately, I had already got a purchase price (good for seven days) from CarMax for $2000 more than I owed. I presented the certificate to the salesman when I was sure he wasn't going to offer any more. I eventually sold my car to CarMax, put almost $2000 in my pocket, had the salesman from the dealersip pick me up from CarMax, and purchased my new vehicle. My experience was one of the best I have had and I have purchased several new cars and have negotiated deals for my sons. I also take into consideration other factors while at the dealership like professionalism, courtesy, HONESTY, etc.; and while I was comfortable with the deal I made I did have an issue with the salesman sitting at a table near where we were sitting. He was trying to convince a couple (who obviously did no research because the husband was focused on monthly payments instead of bottom line price) to purchase a truck. I wanted so badly to go over and say something and my wife saw it on my face; however, I just shook my head in discuss, not because the salesman was taking advantage of ignorant consumers but because the consumer had no idea what they were getting into. Is this the dealership's fault? I don't think so. Consumers have the responsibility of educating themselves before making such a commitment. Education is the difference between 48 months of payments versus 70 or 82 months which I'm sure I heard mentioned. Bottom line [for me]: Would I buy from Tameron Honda again? I most definitely would because they treated me with respect. The honesty and integrity I created myself when by knowing what I was willing to pay, what I was not willing to pay, when to stay or pack up and walk away (with my money still in my pocket). Ron Nelson told me Tameron Honda would not be undersold and he meant it. I had approx 10 dealerships from Alabama to Georgia competing against each other and no one beat Tameron's out-the-door price. Consumers, educate yourselves! You pay for what you don't know and with the availability of the internet you have no excuse but car salesmen/dealerships will gladly take what you unknowingly leave on the table. More

My salesman, Mr. Simeon Williams, was extremely knowledgable of his job, was very polite, and most importantly was exceedingly patient. He spent nearly the entire day assisting me with making the right decision on the perfect color for me. I strongly recommend Tameron Honda as the perfect dealer to purchase a honda. More

I went to Tameron Honda for trading in my leased sedan and leasing a new Honda Odyssey EX-L. My interaction happened on 5/24/2013 around 5pm. We were originally supposed to see sales rep Mr. Jared Myers, and leasing a new Honda Odyssey EX-L. My interaction happened on 5/24/2013 around 5pm. We were originally supposed to see sales rep Mr. Jared Myers, but as he was not in that day, we were dealt with by another sales rep whose name unfortunately we do not remember. Firstly, their appraisal of my car was way below par for the condition it is in. When I requested the sales rep to see KBB, he gave me a quote based on "fair" condition, while my car is in fact in "very good" condition. He said a very small dent in the car door had brought down its value and that they were indeed offering a better price than what KBB quoted. He then lied blatantly, saying that in KBB, after "excellent", the next grade is "fair"! Secondly, as I was interested in bargaining for a better-than-quoted price on leasing, the sales rep brought in the manager, Mr. Rob Nelson. Mr. Nelson used tactics of intimidation. He asked if we were truly interested in the Odyssey EX-L model or had mistaken it to something else. He went on abusively saying we didn't understand math! He continued in a dismissive tone that he didn't understand why we were there, 'hoping' for things to work out (maybe he truly doesn't understand that people go to dealerships for business, not for taking a math class from him; or maybe he had had enough with the world and badly wanted a break during the long weekend)! I don't know if these dealers realize that with the help of internet, people nowadays are far more educated in the tactics they use with customers. I don't know if Mr. Nelson realized that there are indeed other dealerships where I can lease the car from, for a much better rate than he quoted, without being pressured, intimidated or abused. HE lost a genuine customer. My wife and I just walked out (although I had half a mind to teach him some math and business sense). Bottom line: AVOID THIS DEALERSHIP. THERE ARE OTHER DEALERSHIPS SELLING HONDA VEHICLES IN A MUCH MORE PROFESSIONAL MANNER. More
John Star and Eric at Tameron Used Cars were Fantastic to deal with. I did not experience any sales pressure nor felt intimidated to buy a car I did not want. The staff made us feel at home and assured us deal with. I did not experience any sales pressure nor felt intimidated to buy a car I did not want. The staff made us feel at home and assured us they could get us into a car which met my strict criteria. Although my credit is less than stellar, I was given a 7.8 percent APR. A few other dealers in the area were quoting 14 to 19 percent. We traded in a car and received a fanstasic price on our trade in even though we were upside down on the car. We couldn't be happier, we lowered our payment dramatically, we traded up to a 2010 from a 2005 and we are saving money. Eric is a master of juggling numbers to meet our target monthly price. The Finance guru set us up with a great APR and even a new pen for my wife (inside joke). If you are looking for a no hassle dealer who will work with you to get you in a great vehicle at an affordable price...TAMERON HONDA is your dealer. Call and visit like me and they will meet and exceed your expectations. More

After doing significant research I decided that the best deal and guaranteed excellent customer service would be across state lines in AL (im from MS). And man was it worth the drive. I originally was goi deal and guaranteed excellent customer service would be across state lines in AL (im from MS). And man was it worth the drive. I originally was going to drive further to another Honda dealer for a cheaper internet price, but after stopping at Tameron Honda and meeting Johnny, he assured me he would work his hardest to get me the absolute best possible price, And HE DID NOT DISAPPOINT! Johnny provides calm, knowledgeable, and accurate service with an very friendly demeanor throughout the whole process. He want above and beyond by ordering my car from another dealer (because the exact model/color is very rare) and alerted me as soon as the car was in the area. This dealership and Johnny are unlike any other I've ever been to. Johnny will look you in the eye, and will be 100% honest with you and does not toss any B.S. around, and it was highly appreciated on my end. They want you to walk away happy no matter what and, especially Johnny, will bend over backwards to make sure you're stress free and are getting the exact car you want! A++ would highly recommend. It made car buying a pleasure More
We had purchased a used 2011 Honda Odyssey from Tameron Honda in August of 2012. This week they wanted to know if we would be interested in purchasing a brand new 2013 Honda Odyssey and since we were repe Honda in August of 2012. This week they wanted to know if we would be interested in purchasing a brand new 2013 Honda Odyssey and since we were repeat customers they would "work with us". Working with us included trying to make us pay MSRP for the 2013 Van and trying to give us wholesale price on the van we had bought 9 months prior. DO NOT BUY FROM THEM!! Go to Atlanta where you can pay 8-11% off MSRP! Tameron is all about playing games! More
