Very rare that I would consider giving a car dealer 5 stars, but this team deserves it.

My wife likes to drive her car into the ground before getting a new one, and that is where she was. old car about dead, and needed a new 9or new to her) replacement quickly.

We visited 5 or six established dealer and 3 or 4 car lots, and received the typical sales job and pushy treatment.

Not here though. These folks were great, and they had a few cars recently in off leases that that offered to let my wife try 9and even rive home) if she liked. One of those was a 2012 Mazda3 Grand Touring that had low mileage and was in almost perfect condition.

She took the car out for a drive and loved everything about it, then called me to come check it out. Nice car. Fully loaded. About $1K under KBB "Good" condition average pricing yet it looked new and we would classify it as Excellent.

No pressure sales here. Pearson told us to take the car for the day and check it by driving it around, so we took it to our local mechanic (for their $40 used car checkup) and they said it was in outstanding condition as far as they could tell.

Easy decision for us. Even though we returned near closing time, the sales and finance guys had no problem at all hanging around for an hour after closing time to get the paperwork done. We had a pre-approved deal through our credit union, and the Pearson finance guy even called his fiance contacts then made an offer to beat our pre-approved rate.

Not only did Pearson do a complete glossy clean-up job on the car before we came to pick it up, but they also ordered a second set of electronic keys (the lessee only turned in one set of keys...) at no cost to us.

Was an easy, smooth purchase and has been a trouble-free car so far. very please with Pearson Mazda and with this car. Would recommend to others and would return again for another car.
