Review of Sam Swope Honda World, Sam Swo...

Professional car dealership, but some aspects were...

Professional car dealership, but some aspects were slightly shady. For example, we received "Conquest dollars" from Honda, which required we finance through Honda. We had a better deal somewhere else, and our sales guy tells us, "No problem. You can always just refinance next week through your other place and keep the conquest dollars as well as your better interest rate from the other place." But when we get to the finance guy, he says, "Oh, I'd hate for you to lose your conquest dollars by refinancing." When I pushed him on the other, he says, "Oh, I'm not sure you'd lose them, but that's what I heard." Shouldn't a finance guy know that?

They also got us on the trade-in, offering a ridiculously lowball amount then coming up. The sales guy said, "Well, you might have bit so we had to try." I laughed, but I admit it bothered me.

Overall, it's a car lot and I guess you should expect crooked little things like this. They were professional in other aspects, and had a nice selection. No major gripes.
