Wilde Honda of Sarasota

We had a great experience with Bob at Wilde Honda! I would highly recommend stopping by to see him! He really helped my boyfriend find a car for HIS needs! Bob was very knowledgeable, honest, and patient! We were able to see new and used cars and test drive to compare. Great customer service! They even suggested a pizza place for us when we bought the car to celebrate (we drove up from Fort Myers). He was so patient answering all our questions and even staying late so we could take the car home! I'll be stopping by to see him when it's time that I need a new car! Thanks Bob! more

Michael Malmsbury at Sarasota Wilde Honda is undoubtedly the most conscientious, knowledgeable, customer accommodating sales representative I have ever done business with in my 55 years as a car owner. We traveled 350 miles to do business at Sarasota Wilde Honda because of his honesty and ability to put us in the perfect fit of our choice at a price we could afford. We spoke with Michael on the phone and when we arrived from out of town, he validated everything he had promised on the phone. It was well worth the trip and we are most satisfied with our new Honda. It made purchasing a new car a most pleasant experience. \r Their financial department is a little overwhelming in trying to convince you what a sacrifice they are making to give you the great deal you are getting, pressuring to sell you things you don’t need and can’t afford but Michael Malmsbury does such an outstanding job of listening to your needs & requests it overrides the finance departments razzle dazzle ‘em pitch. \r We will do business with Sarasota Wilde Honda ONLY in the future because of Michael Malmsbury’s sincerity. . He made us feel like he was working for us not the dealership. I would recommend Michael Malmsbury to all family, friends and anyone else that is looking for special attention and performance in purchasing a new or used vehicle. \r more

Quite simply, when a person walks into Wilde Honda they are getting the sole experince of being welcomed as a friend, a neighbor, and as a human and being offered\r one of the strongest automotive products : HONDA.\r \r My new car experience was a little unique. The company I work for is a company that does business with many local dealerships. So, I get to see some perspectives the average person does not. Fom the very beginning, Wilde Honda set itself apart. The GM & Sales Managers ( Skip Strasburg, R.G. Stathas, Craig McGregor, J. Alexander) have always been just very genuine, very nice, very fair and very kind. After a couple years of seeing this constitency of character from the leaders of this dealership, I knew without a shadow of a doubt that when the time came, I would give my own personal business to these people. \r \r I have never owned a Honda and had many questions. I was thrilled when Craig took time out of his busy day to speak with me regarding my future Honda. J Alexander, Craig, and R.G. each spoke with me several times, without pressure to me, about the many great vehicles offered by Honda. Skip even shared his personal experiences and really took the time to welcome me into what I'm calling the wilde Honda experience.\r \r Micheal Malmsbury is my salesman and he is fantastic! I say ""is"" because he has sent me a birthday card and still calls to make sure I'm loving my new 2011 Honda CRV. I'm honestly stunned that Micheal has taken the time and still takes the time to do this act of recognition. He knowledgably explained the CRV to me and went out of his way for my convienance. I cannot stress enough how impressed and pleased I am to have had the experience and advice of the staff of Wilde Honda, especially Micheal Malmsbury.\r Another pleasant surprise in the finance office with Lon Vickery! Lon informed me of many wonderful options and chatted pleasantly with me! Wow!\r \r I love..LOVE...my 2011 Honda CRV that came fully equipped with comfort, vehicle traction control, and plenty of room for my son, the dog and beach supplies! This entire experience has been completely unlike my previous car buying or leasing experiences. I left Wilde Honda with my new vehicle thrilled, informed, and relaxed! I still consider this experience with Wilde Honda as a miracle and example that happy people and 'happy cars' do exist. I have named my Honda CRV ""Angel"" and I take my ""Angel"" to Mark in the Wilde Honda service drive. I hope all my friends and associates get to have similar experiences!\r Thank you Wilde Honda! more
