I can't say enough wonderful things about the sales team at Cutter Mazda. After a truly awful experience at JN Mazda (I literally left in tears), I decided to talk to the guys at Cutter about trading in my 2011 Mazda3 sedan for something a little bigger.
Gavin Yamane was my sales agent, and he was incredible! Not only did he answer all my questions about the 2013 Mazda3 hatchback I was eyeing, but he even took me to check the surf on my test drive, and showed me all the local spots for the best plate lunches. We are buddies now, and I am genuinely happy to see him whenever I go into the dealership! He went so far out of his way to make sure I was happy and comfortable with the process, and took really great care of me.
Brehon is the Sales Manager, and was instrumental in helping me find pricing and financing that worked for my budget. Another person that I look forward to seeing, and who went above and beyond to help me get a great car that I love (and could afford). He helped me figure out the trade-in, and paved the way for all of my DMV transactions to turn in my old car. He was always accessible by email or phone, and stayed late on more than one occasion to help me out. He also made sure that the few little marks on the car from sitting in the lot were taken care of, and that I got to go home with a shiny new car.
Financing - Mark Price is awesome. Diligent, meticulous, super honest and helpful. This was great for me as an inexperienced car buyer; he explained every detail and made sure I was comfortable with everything I was signing.
The Service Team is also really great - Mac, Presley and Francis have all helped me at various times, and are easy to reach and very accommodating. They took great care of the old car AND are now taking care of the new one.
The ONLY aspect of Cutter Mazda that I can't rave about is the lot team, or whatever they call the guys who move/store the cars on the lot and in service. The car I was trading in came back from service with a huge dent on the passenger side, and my headphones had been smashed in the door as well. Nobody from the service department said anything, but luckily Gavin and Brehon are awesome, honest guys who made sure I was aware of all damages to the car, and promptly took responsibility. Gavin could have let me drive the car away with a huge dent on the passenger side that I might not have noticed for days, and then claimed that it wasn't their fault, but instead he walked me around the car to inspect it and took care of everything once I pointed out the dent that had NOT been there before.
Again, I think this just emphasizes the honesty and level of service at Cutter more than anything else. Accidents happen, but the team there took FULL responsibility and fixed everything.
Buying a car is a process that I'm not very comfortable with. It's a lot of money, and a lot of decisions to be made, and I find it overwhelming and scary. But the guys at Cutter made it as painless as possible for me, and I feel like I now have a long-lasting relationship with the sales and service teams at this dealership. I will be returning here for all my servicing, and for any cars I might buy in the future.
Thanks for helping me to finally get the car I've been wanting for years! read more
