In early May I approached Stirling Honda concerning the purchase of a new vehicle. I went through Truecars.com, a widely used internet buying service, that provides a price quote and eliminates the need to negotiate in person. Sterling refused to honor the quote stating that it is based upon old incentives. They provided a price approx. $700 more, which included a $500 military discount which they acknowledged that I qualified for, although I clearly told them that I was retired military. Over the course of 3 days, the dealership offered me an additional $150 discount. I agreed to the purchase price, asked for a price breakdown and then spoke to the sales rep. over the phone. I was told that I did not qualify for the $500 military discount because I was retired (even though I told them that in advance) and the $150 discount they had agreed to provide was suddenly used to pay for the document fees, which the price breakdown showed as a cost of $0. Seems like less than transparent business practices to me. read more
