While they offer all the dent protection and extra features, they do not pressure you about it. I got a great price for a great car, will be returning for my next car. More

The salesman were honest, helpful and very informative. They were more concerned about meeting our needs than earning profit. Highly recommended!!!!!!BEST IN THE AREA.... More
Nice Cars, Average Prices, Great Transaction If you are looking for an easy, breezy car buying experience, and aren't concerned about getting the best possible deal in the county on your purchase If you are looking for an easy, breezy car buying experience, and aren't concerned about getting the best possible deal in the county on your purchase and trade-in, then this is the place is for you. I was looking for something very specific, this dealer had what I wanted, and the whole process was quite quick and painless. Don't be tricked by the whole 'no haggle price', 'discounted price' bit. Many of their prices are listed just shy of Kelly Blue Book fair market price, including the car I purchased. That being said, cars similar to the one I was purchasing, were selling at other local dealers for the same price, WITH the wiggle room of 'haggling'. I wanted a specific color and package, so I still chose to work with Twin Pine, knowing I would likely not be getting the best deal around, but pleased to be getting the exact car I wanted. They are a business. If they were selling every car below value, they would not have the enormous business they have today. Their philosophy is to sell a larger volume of cars with smaller margins, as opposed to less cars with greater margins. This sounds cute, but there is more to the story. If you are trading a car in, they will likely offer you quite a bit below Kelly Blue Book value, telling you that if you want KBB price for your trade-in, then you should be willing to pay KBB price for your new car. Again, I knew that the car I was buying was a reasonable price, but did not agree that it was a 'deal'. The price they quoted me for my trade-in was well below KBB, even in the POOR category, and they will not haggle on trade-in quotes either. This being said, I had just had my trade-in at the mechanic where the mechanic confirmed that the clutch needed replaced, my bushings were shot, my air conditioner compressor needed replaced, and my steering column was cracked and leaking fluid. These repairs were estimated at around $4000, including labor. These repairs are generally more than a dealer would want to take on, and I assumed they would take my trade-in to auction. I was wrong. I waited to write this review until they officially posted my trade-in for sale, because I was curious as to what price they would put on it. They have it listed around $1500 more than KBB fair market price, and it's an older car and selling for less than 10k, so $1500 is a decent chunk of change. Their selling price is a full $5400 more than they gave me for the car, which again is a lot considering the car is in the <10k category. I am hoping that this enormous price discrepancy is because they DID fix all the costly things wrong with the car, and that someone else won't be inheriting my lemon. So, even though they gave me a good price on my purchase, they made up for it by giving me less on my trade-in. Their other cash cow, is likely the extended warranties they offer. The extended warranty they offered me DID come in below the national average, and the woman walking me through the options was knowledgeable and also great at selling her product. I went into the dealership 100% against buying an extended warranty, because according to Consumer Reports they are a financial loss for most people. However, like I said, they are great at what they do, they had several options, and the pricing was affordable. I left with a warranty. If you are dead set against the warranty, refuse to even meet with the women explaining them, because once it's laid out in front of you, it's pretty enticing. As someone raised in a family business, and prior business owner myself, their business strategy is tight. They run a well oiled machine, present well, are knowledgeable, efficient, have a nice selection of domestic cars and imports, and have an answer for any argument you may have against their pricing. They know what they're doing, and I was impressed with the ease at which they do it. The buying process was professional and smooth, and I felt that the sales people did a great job at selling their business and cars. Just go to their dealership with reasonable expectations. Don't expect a bargain car, and don't expect top dollar for yours. DO expect to shop without a salesperson hovering over you, to shop without pressure, and a seamless transaction. I've had my car for around a month and I've gotten so many compliments on it. She is so beautiful! I washed and waxed her today, just because I wanted to, not because she even needed it. For me, I wasn't going to dicker over a few dollars. I knew what I wanted, and I got it. :) More

My salesman Wyatt Zong was very helpful and patient while I spent several months weighing the many cars I could buy. When I finally decided on a Honda Accord was ready to help me and the buying process ended up taking about an hour and I was out the door in my beautiful car. I always highly recommend this dealership and Wyatt to anyone looking for a used car. More
very helpful- ecstatic with purchase I recently purchased a Honda Accord here and I am so happy with how the process went. Test drive- great, wonderful help and step by step process. The I recently purchased a Honda Accord here and I am so happy with how the process went. Test drive- great, wonderful help and step by step process. The price of the vehicle I was looking for was slightly higher than I had originally planned for, and when they tell you "no negotiating".... that REALLY means no negotiating. This was, however, the best possible find in comparison to all other dealerships and was well worth the price and more. Additionally, entire signing process took me a total of 5 minutes. More
