My girlfriend just bought a new car, her first new car that wasn't a company car.
Below is an excerpt of an article written by Frank at Frank for Cars. Here's a link to the entire article
http://www.frank4cars.fotki.com/other-events/concoursmeetsshowsraces/out-with-the-old-in/
We were at the Mazda dealer driving two different versions of the Mazda3. Joe did a great job of letting Kristen drive two different 2010 Mazda3 models. The question was whether the hatch with its larger engine and slightly better amenities was worth an extra two grand over the sedan. After driving both of them Kristen decided it wasn't. She picked the sedan and we wrote up the deal. Francisco handled the paperwork and we were relieved that through the whole process, none of the numbers changed. Everyone was just as friendly as the first time we had gone in, and although they didn't have the car that night, they promised it would be there from their Tustin location the next day. It went quickly and smoothly and we walked out feeling glad that we had met these guys. The next day, just as they had promised, Kristen's new car was all set by the time we got there. It had been driven over from Tustin, filled with gas, and fully detailed. Dan handled the delivery and did a great job of explaining all of the features and controls. He even pulled out all of the books and entered all of the pertinent information. He showed us around the rest of the dealership and pointed out the service department, the Wahoo's counter being built, the free gourmet coffee stand and the free wifi workstations. It's a brand new facility and it is very impressive. It's the kind of place you wouldn't mind hanging out in if you had to bring your car in for service. Back at the car Dan even helped Kristen pair her Blackberry to the car's system. Now she can just say "dial" and the stereo volume lowers as the car asks for a number to call. It's really an amazing system. Kristen absolutely loves using this feature so don't be surprised if you get a call from her as she shows it off to everyone in her phonebook.One last thing Dan handed me as we headed out was a sticker for MY car. It's just like the one Kristen has in her window. It allows us to stop in any time to get a free carwash. I think Mazda, and the HB guys in particular, really have this whole modern-day selling thing down pat.

What Joe's customers have to say....
If you're shopping around for a new car and looking at a Mazda, you should make your first stop Huntington Beach Mazda to talk to Joe R. or Joe B. I recently bought my first car there from the Joes and had a great experience. I got to the dealership Saturday afternoon to check out the new 2009 Miata and after getting the usual documentation, Joe R. handed me the keys so that my boyfriend and I could take the car out for a test drive. Some Mazda dealerships don't let you take the Miata (and other cars) out until you discuss numbers and even fewer will let you take the car out without the salesperson with you, especially if both people taking the car out are under 25. Joe treated us with respect, rather than like a bunch of kids just messing around, which was a nice surprise. Loved the car, Joe gave us the numbers and let us talk about it without hovering over us at all. Eventually, I gave him the amount I was willing to pay and we settled on a price. I still wanted to think about it overnight, so I told the Joes that and they didn't pressure me to buy the car that night at all, even though I had already spent about 3 hours there. During that time, they were always available to answer my questions and let me take the car out for another drive. Came back Sunday afternoon, took one last test drive, and bought the car from Joe R. and Joe B, who stuck to the price we had agreed on the night before. Overall, incredibly low pressure atmosphere and very friendly salespeople who made my first car buying experience memorable, and in a positive way. My dad was with me on the day that I made the purchase and even said that was the most low pressure car buying experience he'd ever had. Now I have a car that I love and at a price that I was very happy with.
