We were in the market for an SUV, but were really in the market for the best deal and experience overall. When we focused our consideration set towards SUVs with 3rd rows, the Mazda CX-9 really started to market for the best deal and experience overall. When we focused our consideration set towards SUVs with 3rd rows, the Mazda CX-9 really started to pop to the top. Once we decided that that was the vehicle for us, we started taking a look at inventory around the Chicago area. We went to Carmax and 2 Mazda dealerships before we met with Lewis at the Autobarn in Evanston. Having been soured by a particularly poor experience in Schaumburg, we were refreshed by Lewis' no-nonsense style and desire to help our young family have a pleasant and well-informed shopping experience. From start to finish, he was courteous and helpful, with a non-pushy, friendly attitude. He answered plenty of questions, was fair when we discussed pricing and didn't flinch when we made requests to update some of the pre-owned car's minor imperfections. He even followed up with us to ensure we were content with our purchase and made us very comfortable to know that the quality customer service extends beyond the close of the sale. We'd definitely recommend Lewis Belcher, and The Autobarn Mazda dealership to anyone considering purchasing in the near future. More

In the market for a new Mazda CX5, I got the contact information about this dealership through the Costco Auto Buying program for Costco members. Of the 3 authorized dealers in my area participating in information about this dealership through the Costco Auto Buying program for Costco members. Of the 3 authorized dealers in my area participating in the program, Autobarn (and their sales person Kissy Freeman) was the first and the fastest to contact me by email and then by phone. Kissy was, throughout the entire transaction, professional, helpful and positive; she never said, "I can't do that" in regards to our offer(s) on the car we wanted. She kept on going back to her sales manager to present our offer. In the end, when the deal was down to 2 dealerships, Kissy and Autobarn worked the hardest to earn our business, gave us the best price by quite a bit and when we went in to purchase the car, the experience was quick and had no hidden features or charges.

I found that the people whom I dealt with were very professional, knowledgeable and fun. Lisa and Kissy were very knowledge about and gave me great information about this great vehicle. Mike Allegretti, their manager, used his professionalism and understanding to lead this to an easy sale without the pressure or bad tactics that are often used by their competing dealers in the Chicago area. The two finance people, Scott and Doug, also displayed great skills and knowledge in handling the finance side of the business as well. Oh, yes, I love the car. Highly recommended More
