I recently purchased a Certified Used 2011 Honda Pilot from Martin Main Line Honda. I had already visited several other dealerships in the area, such as Conicelli and Piazza. I was 100% positive on the model and features of the Pilot I wanted by doing my research. At the other dealerships I felt like I was going back in time and dealing with the typical BS Old School Car Salesman where you spend hours haggling and being BS'd to death by cheeseball tactics. If you end up at Conicelli and deal with an old dude name Charles Blue, just run. Hes still stuck in 1984. The prices at the other dealerships were obsurd. Conicelli was also trying to sell me a damaged vehicle. They were trying to sell me an LX model with 44k miles on it for over 30k. I know more about cars than Conicelli does. Terrible place. Who cares if you are nice to me while you are ripping me off. \r

I inquired about a Honda Pilot online at Martin Main Line Honda and was contacted by Joe Sabatini. We scheduled an appointment and he was right on time and available to work with me. We took the vehicle I was interested in on a test drive and I immediately loved it. However, during the paper work process someone swooped in and bought the car before me. Sometimes that happens. Joe Sabatini was awesome at finding me an even better vehicle with lower milage and at the same price. Amazing!!! Joe also did a great job working with me on finding a good price that would fit my budget. Remember people, the salesman doesn't know how much the manager has invested in the car, so its really not up to them. Joe made the entire buying process easy and relaxing. It was the first new car I bought in 10+ years and a lots changed. A lot is better, especially when dealing with Joe Sabatini and Martin Main Line Honda. The finance department was awesome. They never once pressured me into buying all the extended warranties and junk. \r

A couple weeks after purchasing my vehicle I noticed some damage on the rear subframe. I informed Joe Sabatini and the Service department and they went above and beyond to rectify the problem. The replaced the rear subframe for free and it only took a day. They also put the car up on the lift and let me inspect it further for peace of mind. I was amazed that they let me do this. I can't say enough about how great my experience has been at Martin Main Line Honda. \r

I wish I needed another car because I'd go right to Joe Sabatini and Martin Main Line Honda. Steve Bloomer and Dean in their service department are awesome to work with.\r

Guess what? I ended up purchasing another new vehicle from Martin Main Line Honda. I'll keep it short this time, but I again had a wonderful experience. Joe Sabatini and Mike Freeman were awesome to work with. I'm shocked by some of the lame bad reviews people have given this place. My only thought is the people that left the bad reviews were probably difficult annoying people and didn't deserve the respect they think they deserve. I typically remove dealer installed Tag Brackets from my vehicles because I don't believe in free advertising, but this time I'm leaving it on. \r

Thanks again Martin Main Line Honda!
