I'm very excited because we just financed a new car and even cooler, we left the lot with a different car than we had anticipated. First off, I went to the Crown Honda website to see if they would trade in our Toyota Prius--yes, awesome! Then I filled out the details of the car we wanted to trade for, a Honda Fit . I had a very prompt and friendly follow-up call from Mr. Cedric and we set up an appointment to meet later that day. When my husband and I finally made it to the dealership, Cedric was with another customer, but Brandon took right over, with Cedric's okay. Brandon was super nice, laid back and eager to help us figure out what it was we wanted--we thought we knew, but we got there and were kind of overwhelmed. There was the Fit Sport, the Fit Basic, 5spd, automatic, pre-owned, etc., etc. We went for a test drive in the Fit Sport w/ automatic and it was like butter to drive-ahhh, lovely. While driving we chatted to Brandon about Savannah and how he thinks that Paula Dean's restaurant is so not as good as every one might think and how this old man there has a rib stand where you can get a gallon of the most delicious bbq sauce around. Brandon was clearly not trying to sway us one way or another, he was just allowing us to have our own experience. We decided that we did know what we wanted (the Sport), but we only had so much to offer (enough for the Basic). Boy did Brandon come through. After some caffeine-induced bartering from my husband and what was some talented sales-savvy from Brandon, we rolled out of there with a beautiful, blackberry pearl-colored Honda Fit Sport! You always hear about car dealers being so loud-mouthed and sleazy. Well, I'm here to tell you that it does not have to be that way. Every single person we interacted with at Crown, from the lady at the front desk, to Cedric, to Brandon, to the finance guy, Michael, was professional, as well as totally cordial. I know they are trying to sell cars, people, but I really felt like Brandon was rooting for us and no one was
