I was drawn to Chico VW by the care that was shown for me personally. My inquiry about financing was the start of a beautiful relationship. The owner, Mark, made it his mission to find me the lowest possible payments, even when it looked impossible for me to buy or lease. And just like Rocky Balboa, he was a champion in making my dream come true. I hadn't read the website description about his dedication to customers or his goals of providing an enjoyable experience, but this is how he came through. I was treated like family by all of his staff, including Brandon, Taylor, and Hailey. They patiently provided a seamless, enjoyable experience, focusing on my immediate needs, making sure I had all my questions answered. Chico VW provided excellence and stellar customer service. You won't find another dealership like this. read more

Not impressed. Love the car I got from them. But that was in APRIL and it is now OCTOBER and they have not figured out how to get my vehicle title or registration to me. I don't even know if my car is in my name yet. The vehicle's registration ended in July and it is now 3 months past and I could easily begin to get pulled over now for lack of sticker. This team has been slow - and nice - but slow and doesn't seem super adept at their job. read more

Just picked up my new VW ID.4, and I couldn't be more impressed! The entire process was incredibly fast and effortless -- the paperwork was ready before the car was even done being detailed. From start to finish, I was in and out in under two hours. Mark and the sales team really listened to what I wanted and matched me perfectly with the right vehicle. The new ownership has truly raised the bar -- it shows in every part of the experience. You've earned a customer for life. read more

Hands down one of the best car-buying experiences I've had! Mike, Mark, and Symmony were so patient, kind, and genuinely listened to us.

New management really shows!! The team was welcoming, professional, listens to their customers and focused on making the whole experience enjoyable.

Love, love, love my Tiguan. So much fun to drive and new ownership at Chico Volkswagen has proven trustworthy and reliable. They are so friendly and make the experience enjoyable and easy. One of the most approachable dealerships I've been in. Even ordering accessories for my ride was super easy. The order came in the next day and they were so knowledgeable about it. The service department has alot of friendly faces and feels comfortable to drop off my car for the regular maintenance. Great place. I recommend Chico Volkswagen and a Tiguan to anyone read more

I have a question does anybody that works there try to use their phone system. No one ever answers and no one calls you back. I bought several cars from there in the past the latest in 2024 had a good experience up to then. Most of change management or something trying to call and get recall done The only person I talked to was a total waste of time Didn't say they 'd called me back didn't say they might get the part didn't say they had the part really didn't know anything What a horrible experience So now I'm going to take my car to Oregon to get it repaired this looks like the only way to do it or drive Spend an hour of my time to get there and ask them the same question they should be able to answer over the phone. PS I've tried get ahold of management with no avail Nobody answers nobody calls back Not a way to run a business if you want to stay in business. read more

When it comes to buying a car, trust in the seller is as important as the vehicle. I live more than 2 hours away and gambled on a long trip to see a used car. Bought a low mileage VW beetle that is like new and filled with extras. It was everything they represented and more. I couldn't be more pleased about the team and how they facilitated the process. will happily look first to Chico VW for my next car. read more

Everyone was insanely nice and accommodating! Got some yummy oranges and some coffee, very thorough and helpful in explaining. Thank you for your kindness! read more

We had an amazing experience at Volkswagen, seriously one of the best car-buying experiences we've had. Mike, Mark, and Symmony were all incredible so patient, respectful, and genuinely listened to what we wanted as customers. There was zero pressure, no runaround, just honest communication the entire time. They worked with us and were able to get us the price we were looking for. We drove off in a beautiful 2026 Tiguan SE, and we couldn't be happier. You can really tell the new management is doing things right the whole vibe was welcoming and professional. I'd highly recommend anyone looking for a Volkswagen to come here you won't regret it honestly! read more

Purchased a car this month from Chico Volkswagon. After requesting communication online about a vehicle, Rian was professional and on it but not pushy and over the top. I then filled out my application for loan and it got denied through the auto system (I have a colorful and complicated credit history..all on me) but he called and let me know that it would be worked out in person with more documentation. We then set up a time for me and my husband to come in and set up a test drive as I was coming in from out of the area. When we arrived Rian walked out and greeted us and we got right to it looking at all the vehicles we wanted to, I had originally thought new but switched to used and that was no problem. We went out on a test drive and Rian was very knowledgeable and able to find my answers about the vehicle I was driving. Came back looked at another vehicle but ultimately decided to talk numbers. Rian made that part of the process easy. The numbers guy the negotiation guy, didn't catch his name maybe Corey, he was too much. I guess there's a reason he doesn't have much human interaction. Once me Rian and my Husband shook hands on a deal we moved to paperwork with Nathan. Who was excellent and thorough at explaining things. They were very clear that if we needed anything later to contact them. Another great peace of mind thing is all of their vehicles new or used come with a bumper to bumper power train warranty. I know that doesn't cover a lot. But it's something and I think cool they do that. Anyways, great experience, Rian and Nathan were great will hopefully be able to continue to buy cars here. Worth the drive. And I love my Used Honda Pilot already. read more

Buying a new car is always stressful but Chico Volkswagen/Mazda is under New ownership! The new owner was amazing, very personable and friendly and it's still a family business! They were open to all of our concerns and haggled appropriately as you would expect at any car dealership. Press and Mike were the ones that helped us the most and went on multiple drives with us to make sure we were completely happy with our purchase. Even though I was unhappy with the trade-in value on my car, it was expected and I knew going in that I would be negative on it. It was a bad decision on my part to even get that car in the first place but I can't tell you how happy I am with my Mazda CX 50 hybrid. Truly recommend this team! read more

Chico VW reached out to me to buy my car I had listed online. We went back and forth on the price and finally agreed to a price assuming the car was in the excellent shape that I listed it for. I rechecked 2 times with the staff Preston that he had confirmed the price with his boss and that's what they would be willing to pay before taking time off work and coming in to seal the deal. As I walked in I'm immediately handed off to another staff who is the "appraiser." I told him we had already agreed to 22k. He went out and went through my car and came back in and said " I'm not the final say but 22k seems like a reasonable ask for that car. Next it goes to the manager to approve the price. 30 minutes later he comes out and says "yeah there's a car with lower miles than yours for 17k in Roseville. We can offer you (insert much less than 22k)." (I checked later and it was a salvage title) I said what about our agreement for 22k? He said oh that staff is new we can't offer you that much. So thanks for wasting 2 hours of my time with a bait and switch Chico VW. Will never work with you again. read more

Well it was time for my annual service for my 2015 Beetle convertible. New here to Northern California, I bought Buttercup brand new from Autonation Volkswagen in Las Vegas NV. Drove her off their lot with 3 miles on her, and to date - she just rolled over 20,500 original miles. I was really anxious about this new service place, as any car owner who treats their vehicle like family is. My anxiety was quickly put to rest as Jesse (service rep) took Buttercup in and got her up to date with an oil change and standard 32- point inspection. I had opted for the Winter Care package, although if anything else had been needing attention I'd have addressed it of course. Buttercup came back with a great well-check, only needing the tires rotated, oil change and new wipers...all included in that Winter Care package. Jesse stayed in contact all day via text messages, and the tech working on her even sent me a video of Buttercup at her "well-check". Here's what cinched the deal for me: When I arrived to pick her up, she had been 100% detailed. Interior and exterior and I swear that car is cleaner now than when she was brand new. Thank you to Jesse and the entire team at Chico VW/Mazda for looking after my baby. From the bottom of my heart, the care and attention we received from this dealership will keep us coming back. read more

Ugh...can you give less than 1 star. Not only did this dealership try and charge me $5,000 for a WARRANTY repair, they have had the vehicle in the shop multiple times and haven't fixed anything. The latest response from them is basically that I should try another repair shop, or I should just call the manufacturer. Shady, dishonest, and everything that you could expect that traditionally makes a car dealership act and appear to be the scum of the earth. Buyer beware... read more

They are also a Mazda dealer. We bought a 2025 Mazda 3 from them and it developed a small annoying rattle. The sales department worked with the service department to get us a loaner while the vehicle was repaired. Jesse Redding was our service advisor and he did an outstanding job of being sensitive and smart in terms of diagnosing the issue and getting the vehicle back to us. We had several other Mazda dealers we could have purchased the car from, but I am very happy with Chico Mazda and the extra effort they went to to make sure we were happy with the vehicle. If you have an option between a larger dealer and a smaller town dealership, I would recommend always going with the smaller town dealership because you generally get better service, and they are easier to work with. read more

Nathan, was an amazing. I came all the way from Sacramento!! The guy knows his stuff. I came in fathers day wanting a used car that they had in stock.

Ive bought several cars from this dealership and they've always been willing to work with me and keep me as a customer. Unfortunately though, with Dustin Drenon as the sales manager, we are no longer going to be customers of Chico Volkswagen. Dustin was incredibly condescending and rude toward me after our Tiguan we bought from them last year was totaled by another driver. He basically called me a liar several times when I said my GAP insurance would give me 1000 toward the down payment of a new car. He acted like it was a waste of his time to show us an Atlas. I don't know how this 20-something year old who has only been at this dealership since May landed himself a sales manager position when he has the worst customer service I've ever experienced from this dealership. read more

I want to start out by saying that in total, between my husband and myself, we've owned 7 Volkswagens in our adult lifetime and will continue to own Volkswagens. My husband purchased his GTI and has taken vehicles in for servicing for years and has had a pretty good experience. My experience wasn't all that great. My 2015 Jetta broke down on a Thursday afternoon. There was a problem with clock spring. I called them and set up an appointment for the following morning, which I was very grateful for. I had my car towed to the servicing center same day as car broke down, called an notified them it was on the way. Friday morning, I got a call from Jesse, he called for more information about the issue. He said he would look up some information and call me back. 10:00 am came around and I still hadn't heard from him. I called him back, he said he had no information yet, but would call me back later. 2:00 came around and still no call. I called again, he said he's been really busy, they were short-staffed. He said it was indeed the clock spring and that the part is 2 weeks out. He said it was safe to drive, however. I asked him if he was sure, the reason i had towed my card was because of the steering not working correctly. I asked if someone had driven it to make sure. He said no, would look into it and call me back. 4:00 on a Friday afternoon and he hadn't called me back. I called again and there was no answer, the call went to voicemail. They closed at 5:00 p.m. and I had no return call. I stopped by the dealership the following morning, but the service center is closed on weekends during winter hours. I stopped by Monday morning and spoke to the manager, Barry. I expressed my frustration, he commented on how they had been short-staffed and that Jesse had gone home sick around 1:00 that day, but then corrected himself after I pointed out that I had spoken to him after 2:00. He asked Steve to look into the status of my card and handed me off to him. Steve was the most helpful person in this department. He provided me with a status of my car. He said he would look for the part and try to get it shipped sooner. After this, he kept me informed with status updates and returned my calls promptly. My car was ready for pick up by Thursday evening. If it wasn't for Steve stepping in and providing excellent customer service, I would have given 1 star (because I couldn't give zero) and I would be taking my business elsewhere. Should I return, I will only be dealing with Steve. As for everyone else, you can do better. If you tell a customer you are going to do something, do it. A 3-minute phone call at the end of the day Friday would have made all the difference. read more

I will never buy another car from Chico Volkswagen. We set up an appointment to view a car that the dealership said they had in stock. So we drove two hours only to arrive and the salesman said they don't have that car on the lot. We ended up test driving a car they did have on the lot and decided to buy it. During the process the sales manager kept going back-and-forth between us and an office with someone else. This played out over a 2 and a half hour period. Eventually we were able to get a price on the car and a good trade-in on our car. Everything was signed and we were just waiting for them to bring the car around for us to leave. This process alone took almost an additional hour. When we ask the salesman what was going on but he couldn't give us an answer. We finally got upset and asked the sales manager what was going on. He tells the guy bringing the car around the front of the dealership ended up scraping the side of it against something else on the lot. He apologized and said we could either take it as is or they could have it fixed but we would be without our car for two weeks. We told them there is absolutely no way we are taking a new car with a scratch down the drivers door. So they gave us a rental to use for two weeks. We then had to drive two hours back home without our new car that we had just purchased. We did get our car back within the two weeks but still had to drive two hours back to the dealership. I believed they scratched the car before we signed the paperwork but they figured they wouldn't tell us or maybe we wouldn't notice. The sales manager was one of the most insincere people I've ever spoke to at a dealership. I will never purchase another car from Chico Volkswagen and I encourage others to shop elsewhere. read more

Can I give less than 1 star? Have had to deal with this dealership several times (leased a car for 3 years and then ended up buying out the lease). We had mostly good experiences with the service department, but every interaction with a salesperson or manager they would waste our time, drag things out so you just sign on the line to get out of there, and straight up lie to us every time. We wanted to use our own bank for financing? No problem, the manager will give them a call (he didn't). Oh look, we actually found you a better rate than your bank offered (it wasnt). Yes that is standard APR for used vehicles (it wasn't). 3+ hours to buy out a car we were already leasing thru them. Called our bank the very next day to find out no, they never inquired at all, and while VW was using "an amazing deal" at 4.9%, our bank was like, "uh, our standard is 2.9%". Had our bank buy out the financing and went through them (we never want to speak with Chico VW again) and immediately saved $150 per month. (This interaction was a few months ago, actual interest rates may have changed by now, but wanted to be clear how much they were attempting to rip us off) Would I buy another VW? Yes. Would I ever use Chico VW again? No. They will straight up lie to your face every single time. read more

I purchased my first car back in October 22' from Chico VW! it was one of the easiest decisions I have ever made ! even with it being one of my biggest purchases i can't rave enough about how comfortable everyone made me feel ! Jack Traylor in service sold me my car:) We went for a test drive and he showed me everything in the lot with no pressure! Nathan Hitchman and Sam Hopper went above and beyond to finalize everything ! Recently, I had to bring my car in for a small malfunction with the steering wheel. Bowe Blanyer took such good care of me, got my car fixed in 3 days, and hooked me up with a beautiful rental car! All I can say is the experience I have had with the team at Chico VW has been nothing shy of perfection !! Very happy customer. and know I made the right decision choosing VW! read more

Price you see online isn't the price you pay on used they have add on such as glass coverage $1800 that they required be added to the price but not listed on website. When we negotiated we told them we wanted two keys for the car got to the end of the signed contract all the sudden they couldn't find the other key and wouldn't provide one. Push the extended warranty saying it was for 100,000 miles but during financing found out it was only for 65,000 and isn't like an extension of the factory one at all. Purchased the car in a Saturday evening by Monday didn't remember the transaction at all or your name. $16,000 car ended up costing $22,000. read more

Though we ended up purchasing our ID.4 from here, it was not an easy or pleasurable experience. The finance manager, I think Greg, was condescending and a bit rude. He plays the typical car salesman games, in my opinion. The sales people that helped us were friendly, but lacked knowledge of the vehicle. They also seemed to hover around while we discussed what we wanted to do, which was uncomfortable. We waited two weeks for the car, and had actually gone in and canceled our deal. We just never felt like our business was appreciated and when we would call to check in to see if they had any status update, they were not friendly that did not know anything, rather annoyed that we were asking. After canceling, Dustin reached out and apologized and asked what he could do to save the deal. Of course they got the car the day after we canceled. He ensured us that it would be a better experience. He also got us matched up with the girl that actually knew about the car. She was FANTASTIC! My recommendation to management/leadership. Take the time to train your employees and empower them with knowledge. Hiring people that do not know everything is ok and understandable in todays world; however, teach them that when they do not know, to simply tell the customer that. But then respond with "I am unsure, but let me find out for you" and then actually follow back up. Again, my opinion is that they need a complete overhaul with training and customer service. And the guy that deals with finance and trade ins, I think Greg?, he needs an attitude adjustment. His smug attitude and overall demeanor, I would simply not tolerate in my own business. You are a reflection of your team and your people. If they are not doing well, it is not their fault, but your own for not leading them. read more

First of all, I'm a 3x Mazda owner. So naturally when my wife needed a new car, we went to Chico Mazda to buy our 2nd car from them. I worked with Aden, who was nice. We inquired about a special via their website & they said they didn't have that model in stock, but one was in transit. We tried the premium model & asked for some #'s on it. After an hour we were given 3 different figures on one car. Corey (sales manager) went & talked to finance when I asked about the inconsistencies. He came back and said they had made some mistakes in their calculations but would follow up later w/ correct #'s. No problem, he agreed since they had that model in transit that we they would honor the special when it arrived if we didn't like the premium model #'s. Nathan (Sales Manager) called me 2 days later, he immediately threw Corey under bus and said "he was having an off day." I said Corey was nice and we had thrown a bunch of #'s at him so understandable for any confusion. I didn't really like the figures on the premium & asked about the original special. He said "let's test drive the car when it comes in" and he stated could definitely get us that special. When l asked for it in writing He went on to say he didn't want to look bad to his bosses if he fought for that special, if we didn't end up wanting that car. Understandable I guess, so we agreed we would come back when the car in. It came in on my wife's birthday so we carved out time before dinner to drive it and we liked it. Aden said Nathan would have the #'s reflecting the special when we got back. After returning Nathan was nowhere to found, they said he should have been back from UPS a while back but never returned. That was fine, we had dinner plans anyway. Aden confirmed that he knew the special we were promised & said he was told there would be no problem with getting us that deal. The next day Nathan calls and the payment was $100 more per month over the special. I pushed back and said that we were assured that they could get us the special several times. I stated that I felt mislead that after doing everything they asked, such as coming in 2x's & they didn't even come through. He told me he did his best & I was "going down a rabbit hole" with my complaining. When I stated I planned to share this story with others, he just hung up on me. Trust, I wasn't rude, nor disrespectful. Just obviously perturbed they mislead me & we packed up 2 small kids & made adjustments on my wife's birthday to make this work. I texted the salesperson about our concern and said I was not happy how this went down. Nathan texted me back on Aden's phone and said he hung up on me because I "threatened him" with writing a review. So here's my review... Overall, they lied repeatedly, had us come in several times under the guise they would do what they promised and then tried to hustle us into taking the car at a 25% increase over what was promised given the time we spent trying to get this done. This was the 2nd time I have had an issue with sales here so I would think twice before doing any business here. read more

THE WORST EXPERIENCE EVER!! I wish I had had the time to read previous reviews before I brought my 2014 Tiguan to this dealership. I had just moved to Paradise and my car overheated. I called AAA and had it towed there. They gave me a quote of about $300 and I left the car with them. 2 days later I received a call saying the repair would be about $8400!!! I told them to fix what was wrong and not to worry about the "add ons" they found. All said and done the repair was $5700. It took 3 weeks and they released the car to me with no oil in it!! What they fixed failed again 2 days inside their 1 year warranty but 39 miles outside the 12k . Would they honor that warranty? NO!!! I would NEVER EVER take my car to this dishonest rip off joint again. STAY AWAY!!!! read more

HORRIBLE SERVICE and super UNTRUSTWORTHY staff. I drove an hour and a half to pick up a car I had came to look at a couple days prior just for them to tell they "sold" the car even though I signed paper work for them to hold it for me. They never communicated that the car was "sold". Instead they gas lit me into believing the car was gonna be available for pick up, and was texting back and forth about the gas in tank and the time I'll be in. They waited until I drove there which was again an hour and a half drive to rely the news. Once I asked "why wasn't I sent an email or a text about the purchase?" The manager Nathan Hitman had NO F*cks to give. Instead he said he could Wh*re out any other car, banking on me to desperately buy any car. After our conversation which he clearly cared nothing about, I saw while leaving the dealership the Car I had came there to buy parked in the back poorly hidden. DO NOT RECOMMEND instead niello Volkswagen on Arden in Sacramento! Way better customer service. read more

First I called last week and gave my name and number for the recall coordinator to call me back. Never got a call back. So I called the next day and spoke to someone and scheduled for the following week. Came here to get car serviced and recalls completed. No one even acknowledged me when I came they the door and waited in line for 10 mins. Had about 4 different staff look at me but say nothing! Poor unfriendly customer service. Was told 3 hours at third hour I called and was told another hour. Then told that I would need a tire rotation that is not included in my pre packages service deals. How is a 19.99$ tire rotation not part of a 20,000 mile car serve package?!? I declined it as I use another place for all my tire needs. This VW location out of SF, Sac and ABQ is the worst. Think I will just drive further to have more friendly service. read more

i have a really bad taste in my mouth about this dealership. great experience with a warranty repair, terrible experience with another car. i expected to be their new cheerleader, but after the last conversation with the service manager as well as how i felt after the repair on my second car, i am not. i am not sure how to feel about recommending them; it occurs to me that i would wish to take the vw to sac or roseville if further warranty repairs were needed because trust issues; i am looking for another repair place for my second car. read more

I can not speak to the sales side of this dealership, however, the service department is a disaster. I have brought my vehicle in for warranty repairs several times on a coolant leak, I live over an hour away and every time I return home, the issue has not been repaired. The service department lost my information, delayed repairs and seemed generally disorganized in every facet. I eventually paid out of pocket to have the issue repaired by a competent shop. The manager, Barry was very rude and shouted at me over the phone blaming me for the issue. I would recommend having your vehicle repaired/serviced elsewhere. read more

In December 2020, I purchased a new Mazda CX-5. I went to the dealership three times before I made the actual purchase. My sales lady, Jenna, was so honest and kind. She even came in on her day off to let me test drive cars on 'my time'. She arranged for me to drive the five different versions of a Mazda CX-5. She even washed the cars I took for a test drive and my actual care in the evening after the sale was over. Then, she drove my car to my house in the rain to deliver it. Only in Chico do you get this kind of personal yet professional service! Nathan and Jenna answered many questions via email and texting and never got frustrated with me. General Manager, Dustin, Store Manager, Brandon, and Nathan all made the purchase smooth without any smooth-talking. They even registered my new beautiful car with the DMV--saved me time afterward. Whoever thought buying a car could be a totally positive experience?? I'm glad I was able to spend my money locally and have no regrets. I highly recommend the Chico Mazda Dealership!

Stay away from this dealership. We found the Sales Manager Dustin to be dishonest and rude. What could have been a easy sale with satisfied customers turned into a waste of time on top of a 2 1/2 hour drive.

So I have never written a review before, good or bad. I usually just chalk it up whatever. This time that is not happening. My wife went to Chico Volkswagen to purchase a 2024 ID4, as normal everything is great while you are in there. They told us about the 3 year free charging with an ID4, wow that was going to be great we are going to have the car for 3 years perfect free charges. That was a deal maker. we traded in our pathfinder as we are going over the new car with the lot attendant, my wife asked about how the free 3 year charging works, the lot kid says you only have 500 free not 3 years free, so the lot kid and I went in to get it cleared up. We went to the GM that is who we started with, his response was I dont know, go talk to my son. So we did, he told us he could deal with it right then but would get it figured out. We tried contacting both the GM and his son and CRICKETS, a month and half or so goes by and we finally get the GM on the phone who says he is going to make it right, he didn't say how exactly but he said please don't worry about it, What a bunch of BULLSHIT, we got your money so F$%# you now. I have purchased literally 20-30 news cars in my life. I understand that every car dealership needs to make money, wow, never been so disappointed in the follow up to a situation like this before. THERE IS NO WAY WE BOUGHT THIS ID4 IF IT WAS NOT A 3 YEAR FREE CHARGING. So we traded our pathfinder in and we went on our way. The pathfinder was a lease, what they did not tell us was you have to take a lease back to the dealer. now 5 months has passed and I received a phone call saying my Pathfinder is behind on payments. WTF!!! I have a perfect credit score and pay everything on time. These assholes did not turn the car in, I had to go deal with it yesterday and had to pay 632.00 because Chico Volkswagen didn't do what they needed to do. So if you want a VW and don't care about how you are treated the Chico Volkswagen is for you, if you expect any kind of follow up or service from the GM or his son then this is not the place to buy a car.

I was interested in a Mazda CX-5 so I emailed Chico Volkswagen Mazda as well as a few other Mazda dealerships in Sacramento, Ukiah and Santa Rosa. I live in a rural area, it's at least a 3.5 hour drive to the nearest Mazdas and with internet sales managers at every dealership, I decided it was best to contact the sales reps ahead of time to gauge prices/promotions before I made the drive to whichever locations. After filling out a contact form on Chico Volkswagen Mazda's website, I was contacted by an Internet Manager. I was given the MSRP on the model I was interested in and I emailed back with my situation. "I live in a rural area.... Want to gauge prices first.... Corresponding with a few other Mazdas.... Narrowing down which Mazda to go to based on price and promotions offered". The internet Manager replied with "I can put you on the books for Saturday morning". She never offered me a price on the vehicle like Maita Mazda and a Mazda in Santa Rosa offered me. Instead, she kept showing me the MSRP and wanting me to come in for a test drive. I said no thanks for many reasons. What's the point of having a internet sales department when they are absolutely unhelpful and do not offer you a price on the vehicle other than the MSRP? Every other Mazda offered me a price. I didn't care for this dance Chico Volkswagen Mazda was doing with me so I figured if this is how they are now for an inquiry, I don't want to know what they'll be like when I'm actually there trying to make the deal. I didn't like being pushed to test drive without being given a price. Maita Mazda and Elk Grove Mazda didn't push me at all. Great communication via email the whole way. Right after I declined the invitation to test drive and thanked him for his time, the internet Manager frantically emailed me 4 times within 10 minutes, still just giving me general pricing after rebates and not actual numbers like the other Mazda dealerships so happily did for me. You're better off dealing with Maita in Sacramento or Elk Grove Mazda. read more
