Prior to going to Checkered Flag Honda, I had been to several different dealerships and NONE of them had the customer service nor patience like the people over at Checkered Flag Honda! As soon as I walked in, I was greeted by several of their employees. Mike was my car sales man and did an AMAZING job! I felt ZERO pressure to purchase my new car. His customer service skills, knowledge of the company and all of the cars I took a look at is what I will expect out of anyone here on out in the car business. I couldn't thank Mike and his team for a great experience with purchasing my brand new 2016 Honda Civic!!

No pressure. That was what stood out the most. Charles understood that I needed to discuss the options with my wife and said he understood and let me out the door without the typical overcoming the stall sales technique. I paid more for the car than I would have at another dealership strictly because of that and what an overall fantastic experience Charles provided.

When my 2014 Honda CR-V, that I leased from Checkered Flag Honda, was flooded out by Hurricane Mathew, & rated totaled by USAA Insurance Company, I called the dealership immediately to get a replacement. I reached salesperson, Laura Vaughn, & explained my problem. I told her what I wanted, including color, extras, & she found a 2016 that matched with only 2 miles on it! She put a good on it, I came there on Saturday after the storm, signed some papers & left highly satisfied with the whole operation at Checkered Flag Honda!!

LOVED the new buying experience at Checkered Flag with their "Fast-Simple-Smart" way of buying a car! I was in and out in no time! I can't tell you how relieving that was! As far as price goes, the price of the car is listed on the window. No going back and forth but always getting a great deal! I worked with Larry Brown on my new car deal thankfully as a friend had recommended him to me before I went. When you ask to work with him, make sure it happens. All of the guys there have his number I have no doubt! I promise you won't regret it! I knew going in what I wanted warranty wise, price wise, etc but the car part I was hazy on. Larry simplified the process and before I knew it I was driving off the lot with my baby!!!! He was very efficient, patient, knowledgeable, and exceeded my expectations in many ways! If you want someone honest and forthcoming make the trip! What else do you have to lose?! But I know you won't be disappointed! Thank you again Larry Brown for making my time used well spent and for being awesome! I will definitely be recommending you to everyone and look forward to future purchases down the road!

Someone to greet me in the service lane when I pulled my car in. My service advisor treated me like a person and not a number. They made eye contact and didn't rush me through.I inquired if my seats could be cleaned so my service advisor drove me over to the detail shop to make sure they could it done. Excellent service!When I return to pick up my car I'm not ignored any service advisor will ask me if I have been helped. My service advisor knew where my car was parked. I didn't have to go find it somewhere in the parking lot. The small things matte. Thank you!

Most professional, open, and honest approach to prospective buyers. I came in after being skeptical about their simple and upfront culture to buying a car. George Hall was my Honda Checkered Flag Product Specialist that walked me through their philosophy and approach to customers. What a world of difference in the new way to buy a car. I could not be more please with the staff and my new Honda Civic!!!

Friendly environment, professional workers. Only reason I'm I'm rating this place a 3/10 because, I came in for an oil change and ended up paying nearly $500. I read the receipt and it was literally a couple filters changed and liquids were topped off. Labor was half the price. Because of this, I wasn't able to send money back home to my family and it was the first time I wasn't able to do so.

If your going to go in and shop for a new car go in and see Larry Brown. He went above and beyond everything i could imagine to get me into a vehicle with him. Came in on his day off to give me 5 star service. There isn't anything bad i could possibly say about Larry Brown at all or checkered flag. I will definitely be buying future vehicles with checkered flag but most importantly with Larry Brown.

Showed up without an appointment and was told it could be as long as 3 hours for the services I requested. That's a long time but understandale so I decided to wait and do some work in the waiting area. To my amazement Shelby, the service agent, showed up about 45 minutes later saying the services were completed! That's service! Thank you Shelby and the team.

Janeya Myers was an absolute joy to work with at Checkered Flag Honda in Norfolk. It was my first car leasing experience, and she made everything plain and simpleand even more importantly, she made everything Fun! I was immediately delighted with how down-to-earth she was. It was incredibly relieving because I thought the whole process would be cold and therefore a bit terrifying. That wasn't the case at all, so I deeply appreciate her enthusiasm and SUPER high degree of helpfulness. If youre considering buying or leasing at Checkered Flag Honda in Norfolkyoure in great hands if you get to work with Janeya Myers. (The rest of the staff I got to communicate with was also lovely and personable!!)

Janeya Myers was SO helpful and patient looking over several options within my budget until i found the right car. I could not be more happy with my experience and purchase of my new Honda Civic Touring !! Two days after I bought my car, i hit a pot hole on the way to work & got a flat :'(!!I let Janeya know, they got me in immediatley that day and had the pleasure of having Shelby Martin take care of me in the Service Department :)!! Shelby and the Checkered Flag service team had a new tire on and back to me like new in no time for a very reasonable cost .The short time I waited in the customer area, I was pleased to enjoy a fresh, hot cup of coffee and relax for a bit after a long day's work in the comfortable, clean, lounge area.From Janeya in Sales to Shelby in Service, and everyone I encountered, I could not be more pleased with my experiences with Checkered Flag and highly recommend them:D!

I would have given it a 5 star because the service was fast, I was very comfortable in the waiting area, and the gentleman who I worked with was great, but whoever worked on my car left it a mess. Usually when I have my oil changed somewhere, they vacuum and clean the windshield - it's pretty standard everywhere I've been. Also, there were huge grease smudge footprints left on the plastic rails next to my driver's seat up against the carpet. I had to SCRUB it for 10 minutes to get it off! My car shouldn't get returned to me dirtier than when it went in. That was disappointing.

Bethany Moore obviously enjoys her job and was eager to be helpful in our quest to check out a Honda Odyssey. She had knowledge and a great sense of humor. She was thoughtful in her explanations and gracious in her introductions to the person who would check out our old car and to the financial adviser, both of whom were top notch. I loved working with Bethany and the others. I give all of them high praise as I do your company. Thanks to all for a great experience and a great car.

What a refreshing change of the way you buy a car. Checkered Flag with their "Fast-Simple-Smart" way of buying a car couldn't be easier. The price of the car is listed on the window. No going back and forth. Also the price listed is well below MSRP which is rare for a Honda. Another Honda dealer up the street had a CRV with a price tag that had $2000 market adjustment added to it plus another $1000 for nitrogen tires, air freshener, paint sealant and pinstripes raising the MSRP by $3000. Checkered Flag had the car listed at $2600 below MSRP. Checkered Flags price is not negotiable but when its that low it isn't necessary. For the trade they give you two offers, one from an online program and one from one of their team leaders. You get the higher one. I was very satisfied with their offer. Finally, Larry Brown was the most pleasant person to deal with in my 40 years of buying cars. He is so laid back and a really nice person. I recommend him to anyone who is looking for a new car or even if you have questions about a new car. Very very happy that I chose Checkered Flag Honda!

Mike Evans provided my fiance and me with a fantastic car buying experience. He was extremely patient with us and answering all of our questions, was very knowledgeable about the car we ultimately purchased, and was very genuine. What we valued most was that he put no pressure on us. He made sure we had all of our questions answered, and let us take time to think about it without the constant phone calls or harassment of a traditional car dealership. We went to other places to compare prices but truly felt like Checkered Flag offered us the best overall deal, and best customer service. We would definitely buy another car from here! Thanks again for everything, Mike!

As always Shelby is knowledgeable, through and has excellent customer service. Making sure I understand what will be done, estimate length of time I'd be waiting, etc. I know my car is in good hands when Shelby and the Checkered Flag Service team are servicing the car.

My Honda buying experience was one of the best I've had. Mike Evans was our product specialist and he was very knowledgeable, honest, and helpful during and beyond the buying process. Buying a car has never been this pleasant and easy going. Mike is Awesome! Thanks for an Exceptional Experience!

My salesman Mr. Benjamin Mungaithi was outstanding. His attention to detail nd his ability to ease the buying of a new car was outstanding. I would recommend Ben anytime to future car buyers. I have been a customer of Checkered Flag Honda for many years. My service manager Terry Ruffin is the reason I continue to come to Checkered Flag Honda. His attention to detail and his caring about his customers brings me back again and again.

Larry was simply amazing. I would highly recommend him to anybody looking for a new or used car. He was extremely helpful, professional, knowledgeable and just all around a nice and pleasant guy that made the whole process extremely easy. He really had our best interest in mind and was very thoughtful of our needs. He changed our car buying experience and, the only problem now is that all future car salesmen that we use will be compared to him and probably loose. Thank you for all your help Sir. You are just awesome.

I recently purchased a 2016 Honda Civic from Checkered Flag Honda, and I could not be happier with the results. Product Specialist Larry Brown guided me through the vehicle selection, and I must say he is a blessing to Checkered Flag. I never felt pressured in any way, and Larrys professionalism, patience, and understanding are qualities that everyone in the business world should have. Larry made the process extremely smooth, and kept me informed of the status every step of the way. It is people like Larry that will make me a loyal customer. I rate my experience an easy 5 stars, and highly recommend Checkered Flag Honda and Larry Brown to anyone considering buying a vehicle!

We came with a 1 yr old literally only back for a few hours from living overseas for 3 years unannounced and Mike Evans dropped what he was doing and got to work showing us what we needed. We already knew what we wanted and this dealership didn't hassle us with add-ons. We were out of there in no time with our new CUV. Great dealership and Mike was a great Product Specialist.

After fifteen years my, wife and I decided to replace her 2002 turbo VW Beetle. We purchased this vehicle at Checkered Flag VW. I also have a BMW that although purchased in Massachusetts was serviced at Checkered Flag BMW. Our service from both Checkered Flag locations was in the beginning barely tolerable to ending in horrendously. I have gone out of my way to tell friends and acquaintances to avoid any dealing with any Checkered Flag. Yesterday I decided to search for a replacement for the VW. After recommendations from a number of sources we settled on 3 choices, including the Honda Civic, Toyota Corona and the Mazda 3. While running errands yesterday I asked a business owner, where,near his location, was one of the aforementioned car dealerships. He informed me that Checkered Flag Honda was just down the road on Virginia Beach Blvd. I informed him I would have nothing to do with any of Checkered flag dealerships. However, being near I did decide to go to Checkered Flag to price shop with the determination to spend no more than 10 minutes there.To make a long story short (I know, too late), I spoke with a sales associate Laura Vaughn, returned with my wife several hours later and bought a new Honda Civic. I could shower Laura with praise as to why I purchased a vehicle from her but surfice it to say that without my interaction with her and her natural personality and knowledge attributes, I would never have bought the vehicle. The personnel in the dealership, no matter what their job, were inherently friendly, not a Im doing my job attitude. Laura was the only reason I bought the vehicle.Other individuals that I encountered who contributed to my decision were the receptionist, Aron in finance, the appraiser, the floor manager and many others just walking by. This is a not hyperbole. I will recommend Laura Vaughn and the Honda dealership highly. The VW and BMW dealerships are still on my X recommendation list.

Since the truck that I bought was not ready, Mr. Carl Dyson, offered me another truck to drive while my truck was taking care of. So, I kept the Toyota for 24 hours and got my Nissan looking like new the next day.

The first employee we met was Kaleb, he was very nice, informative, and showed us the way they did business. It was late and the dealership was closing, but we enjoyed the brief 15min experience with him that we decided to come back. When we came back, Kaleb had a previous appointment already since we just walked in without notice, so he directed us to Sherri right away to save us time. After getting to meet Sherri, she had the same AMAZING customer service and took care of us over the next couple of days. She didnt pressure us in anyway; she informed us of ALL the features in every car we took so we could make the best decision for us. We test drove a few cars and actually ended up falling in love with an affordable loaded 2014 Hyundai Santa Fe Sport. The amazing customer service experience even extended to the team leader (Sammy), he was also able to help us make the best decision for US when comparing the vehicles and given our credit situation. OVERALL AMAZING EXPERIENCE, WILL SHOP HERE AGAIN!!

Shelly believed in my ability to get a car more than I did. Being in my late 20s , with low income, and without a drivers licenses, owning a car was mostly wishful thinking. She called me each day and took me out practice driving. She was patient, positive, and encouraging. The process took a couple weeks, but I was able to take the drivers test and pass! I was still nervous about affording a car, but she worked that out as well! She manged to get a car for me within my budget including a 3yr warranty. My car has low miles, is good on gas, and is a super cute red Mazda 2 2013, AND low cost insurance! With the help of Sammy I got less than a double digit interest rate on my loan! With God leading us all of the way I have no regrets and recommend them to everyone know.

It was a three our drive from my home but she was able to get all my details online, and all i did was go in and sign off and car all mine. Ms shelly morris went above and beyond on giving me service. she even filled up my gas tank for making such a long drive. I would recomend this dealership to all my friends and recomend Ms Shelley for her great service.

It took about a min or so for someone to great us. Even when employees walled right by us and you could tell we needed some help. I was nervous at my sales reps first impression. We mentioned what we were there for and she made the comment "You will not be driving away in that today." In the long run she explained why but it made me feel like we were about to be hassled. The process was very long, to the point I was getting impatient. I realized why though when we were just about done. Our finance guy was definitely working them numbers. The sales person as well as the finance person were definitely making sure we got the best deal and the best rate. Overall I had some mixed emotions but am happy with my purchase and will go back to checkered flag in the future!

If you need help looking for a new car, LARRY BROWN is the man you need. He is very helpful and knowledgeable, he does not waste any of your time trying to sell you other vehicle , nor give you the feeling of pressure to buy any vehicle just so he can sell something at the end of the day. He is very patient and because of that it allowed me to make the right decision and end up buying the vehicle I was looking for. Just tell him what vehicle type, features you are looking for, what are important things you need in a car, he quickly gives you all the options they have available. My experience having him as my sales dealer made my car search much more fun and I feel very comfortable telling him all my true opinion about each car I encountered and did test drive. Aside from having good variety vehicles in Checkered Flag, I strongly believe that sales dealer like Larry makes a big difference giving this company an excellent reputation and I definitely highly recommend them as well as their vehicle to all of my friends and family.

I really like the straight forward pricing - they had the best price around.

I stopped by Checkered Flag Honda last Monday afternoon with friends to look at CRVs. I was tired after going by another dealership earlier. Sherri approached me and offered assistance. I listened to her but was only interested in maybe a CRV Ex. I left because I was tired. I located 2 used Pilots on the Internet so I called Sherri and made an appointment for Saturday morning. I can not express how impressed I was with the people that work for Checkered Flag Honda. Everyone was in a great mood with positive attitudes. So helpful to me. Sherri was eager to help me find a car that I would be happy with. We first drove the CRV. Then went to another place to look at the pilots. I test drove one of those and knew I had found a car. All though the process Sherri was so helpful and guided me though the process with ease. She and her team did everything to assure I got my car that day. I had never had a Honda nor had I ever been to that dealership. I was impressed by the happy attitude and customer service. I highly recommend this dealership if you plan to buy a car. By all means ask for Sherri!

I purchased my 2016 Honda HR-V on Saturday with the help of Larry Brown and couldn't be happier with my experience at Checkered Flag Honda. Larry came highly recommended by a family friend that also bought her Pilot there and the recommendation was spot on. From the initial test drive, to the programming my phone to my car after I had purchased it Larry was helpful, funny and never made me feel pressured. He was patient and ran through all the possibilities to get me the best deal and I have to give a shout out to Sammy in finance as well! I will absolutely recommend Larry & Checkered Flag Honda to my friends in the future. Thanks guys!

She was not overbearing like some of the car salesman can be and she was a very caring person. She is someone that I would suggest buying a car from for anyone who enjoys nice people, great deals, and honesty.

Upon the finance part, it did take a while to get back to that office, and once I was the power went out! But all in all everyone made sure I was comfortable and always checked on me to see if I needed anything .. I absolutely LOVE my car and I would definitely recommend Checkered Flag to everyone!

Three years ago I leased a 2013 Hyundai Elantra GT from Larry Brown at Checkered Flag Hyundai. He has since transferred to the Honda location. As always, Larry remained in constant contact and was always available whenever I had concerns or questions about anything. So when it came time to get a new lease I knew exactly who to call. Checkered Flag's Fast Simple Smart process and Larry's ability to still help me at the Hyundai location made this a truly easy and enjoyable leasing experience again. I was a little undecided on which model I wanted and Larry showed GREAT patience and concern that I got the PERFECT car to fit my needs and wants. Larry Brown and Bryan Lane again went ABOVE and BEYOND to make sure I got the features I wanted within my budget. I highly recommend Larry Brown and Checkered Flag for anyone's next lease or purchase. Just ask for Larry Brown at Honda and he will meet you at any location and give you the five star experience!

I traded a 2013 Civic for a 2016 Honda Civic with this dealer. First, Kaleb showed me in detail how they service their customers and what tactics they use to make purchasing a vehicle easier for the customer. Second, he was very knowledgeable about the vehicle and made sure I was comfortable during the transaction. We took it for a tail spin and to my surprise, he was more enthusiastic about the vehicle than I was, which made me realize; he is passionate, respectful and positive about what he do, more importantly, going the extra mile to ensure each customer is satisfied.Thanks Kaleb, #Youthebest :-)

Had a great experience today at Checkered Flag Honda! We were helped by Amy Smith, who was very professional, patient, and knowledgable. Not only did she tell us everything we needed to know about the car we were interested in, she also presented us with our financing options. Today was the first day of our car hunt, so as difficult as it was we decided to keep looking; however, we will definitely be back and we will definitely ask for Amy! Prices were very fair, and we felt no pressure whatsoever.

First I want to say I'm not someone who writes reviews, I usually leave that to my wife. But this is one review I had to write myself and express the exceptional, outstanding service that I received from Chad and Sherri at Checkered Flag Honda.I recently bought a new 2016 Honda Accord Sport Sedan and the experience was incredible. Chad greeted my wife and I upon arrival and we immediately established a great rapport. Chad's professional, personable and knowledgable persona set the tone for the entire process. Sherri and Chad stayed past the hours of operation to assist my wife and I, to ensure that we were happy with our decision.They were upfront and honest about everything and went out of their way to make sure all of our needs were met. These professionals have set the bar high for all of the dealers in Hampton Roads and personally I have been to several dealers in the Hampton Roads area in the last two weeks and from my point of view Checkered Flag Honda is untouchable. If you are shopping for a new vehicle, then I would strongly recommend you visit these guys. Even if they don't have the car on their lot, they will do everything they can to get it delivered for you. 5 STARS are not enough for these guys they deserve TEN STARS !!!!

Your Service Department is second to none. The service is completed on time, and every person I have ever worked with understands the importance of customer service, which unfortunately seems to be a vanishing idea these days in many businesses!

The team at Checkered flag was nothing short of outstanding. My experience started with a very professional email from Brendan Powell after I had signed up for the Team Honda Pricing Program. Brendan and I met where we went over my expectations and then had a very thorough briefing of the Honda Civic EX-T I was considering. Brendan displayed a very professional yet casual demeanor during the test drive and was extremely knowledgable about the product and features of the vehicle. Any questions I had that he didn't have the answer for he made sure to follow up with me on what he'd found. Brendan's attention to detail and expertise was a deciding factor in why i chose to purchase my Honda from Checkered Flag. He and the team made sure I had a hassle free experience and met my every expectation. Would highly recommend the Honda and Checkered Flag to anyone considering purchasing a new vehicle.

On my first visit to Checkered Flag Honda, I was greeted by Laura Vaughn. I was car shopping for the first time in nearly 11 years and was not sure what type of vehicle I wanted. Laura patiently answered all my questions and showed me several vehicles and explained the features of each. She explained CF's fast, simple, smart pricing and the benefits that come with a CF purchase. I was thoroughly impressed with Laura and the CF experience. I felt no pressure at any time. While I eventually ended up finding my new vehicle somewhere else, I would highly recommend this dealership and Laura to anyone looking for a low-pressure and straightforward car buying experience.

Where do I even start, I was in need of a car in a short period of time. I had no idea how I was going to get it done, but I talk to Larry Brown and he made everything happen for me! He went above and beyond for me and made sure that it was the best service EVER! Everything wa fast and simple! I had never bought a brand new car and he made sure I got the best deal in the WORLD! Gosh I am so thankful for everyone at the dealership. Checkered Flag is by far the BEST dealership!

A few weeks ago we took a day trip, from the Raleigh NC area to buy a 2015 certified pre-owned Civic from Checkered Flag Honda, 197 miles away. Why? The day before, we drove a 2014 Civic at a local Carmax. We loved the car but we weren't sure about the deal we would be getting. We came home and did a 200 mile search on the internet to see what else was available. We found a 2015 at Checkered Flag that had 12,000 fewer miles, was $900 less, AND it was a certified pre-owned! We read all the great reviews and Larry Brown's name kept getting mentioned, over and over. The next day, I called as soon as the dealership opened to check to see if the car was still available before making the trip, and Larry Brown answered the phone. He said he was scheduled to be off, but come in to work a few hours. It felt like it was meant to be! I have good credit, but life circumstances have resulted in a high debt-to-income ratio, so I mentioned that I wasn't sure I would be able to get a loan. Larry took basic information from me and called back very quickly saying we could work it out. We jumped in our car and headed to Va. From start to finish we had a good experience in regards to everything that was under the Checkered Flag's staff's control. Carl Dyson greeted us as soon as we entered the showroom. We told him we were there to see Larry and he assisted by letting Larry know we were there and telling us where we could wait. Larry was genuine and accommodating through the entire process, start to finish, as was Chad Frick who spent time with us as well. We were there on an unusually busy Sunday, and a couple of customers were ahead of us waiting to work with Financial Manager Samuel Custodio even by 6:00, when the dealership closed. Larry and Chad stayed with us and maintained the best attitudes, in spite of the circumstances. We finally met with Samuel, who also still was smiling, personable and took the time to fully explain our various options in spite of it being three hours past closing by the time he was working with us. I also felt Samuel was honest about the various service/maintenance options available to us and which ones would be most suited to us/our needs.In summary, the "Fast" part was not so applicable for us but, again, this was outside of the staff's control. The "Simple" and "Smart" definitely applied! I am a single woman who was buying this car with my teen aged daughter. I never felt like I was being misled or taken advantage of during any part of the process, start to finish. I would definitely recommend this dealership based on their better value and customer service. I would not hesitate to make another 3 hour road trip to buy another Honda from Checkered Flag!

My life came to a halt when my cavalier died 2 weeks ago. I needed a car and I needed it fast. I contacted Larry Brown and asked if there was any way he could help me get a new car. Let me say with my credit I didn't think any dealership would touch me! Larry had me feel out most of my information online and fax over some essentials. He had an answer for me in less than hour. I was approved for a 2017 Hyundai Elantra. I never thought miracles came true, but it did for me that day. It was such a FAST SIMPLE AND SMART process!!! I spent if that an hour in the dealership. It was truly the greatest experience I've ever had. See LARRY BROWN!!

Mike Evans was awesome at helping me buy my new HR-V. He was always available for me to call or text with any questions, and always got back to me very quickly. He made me feel great about choosing Checkered Flag over other car dealerships, and he was always very professional. I feel great about choosing Checkered Flag Honda after working with Mike Evans!

The complimentary shuttle service was very convenient and helpful. I also appreciate that Checkered Flag took my car on a walk-in basis when I arrived 10 minutes prior to closing. My car was ready the next morning, and Checkered Flag promptly notified me and made sure that a shuttle would meet me. The complimentary car wash and vacuum is another reason I continue to bring my car to be serviced at Checkered Flag.

when I walked in I was expecting to be crowed by the sale personnel but they were very professional when I told them I would call them when needed. I looked around the lot for about an hour then I was ready to conduct business. Mr. Charles Hall attended to all my needs and questions. Pretty much what ever I needed he was there to accommodate me. Great job Charles. so good that when I went to pick up my daughters car, I brought another car for my wife. Wasn't in the plans but they did a great job. Now my son is looking for a car and I'm headed back to checkered flag. Highly recommended.SincerelySenior Chief United States Navy, RET.

Knowledgeable sales staff that focused on educating and demonstrating the features of automobiles and identifying the needs of the customer instead of employing sales techniques to pocket the most money. The no-haggle pricing model really freed the staff up to engage without focusing on sales commission (and the no-haggle price was likely better than what any other dealer could be haggled into offering!) 10 of 10, will go to this dealer first if I buy another new car!

The whole transaction was conducted in a very professional manner. Our Product Specialist, Charles Hall, was a delight to work with. The Finance Manager DJ was . . . . well in a word unique. Very personable and professional. Neither gentleman was put out by the fact that we were still conducting business an hour past closing time. I have already been recommending Charles and Checkered Flag to others.

My wife and I pretty much knew what we wanted by going online before going but once we got there, Michael Evans made us feel like family. Our first visit he just listened and opened our eye's to vehicle's we didn't see online. At the second visit to pick up "Robinette" (that's what we named her), paperwork was ready, car cleaned and even had lunch. At the end of this year, I will be back for my Honda. Thanks Mike

He answered all of my questions without being pushy. I really like your fast, simple, smart approach to car buying. I got the typical runaround at other dealerships, and in the end your "up-front" price was still better that haggling at other dealerships.

I purchased a new Honda HR-V. After 16 years I decided it was time to get a new vehicle. The Honda HR-V was everything I was looking for in a SUV/crossover. Kaleb and his manager Brandon were very helpful and knowledgeable about the vehicle. We took it for a test drive...vroooom. Kaleb showed me how to operate all the new technology in the vehicle. Let me tell you, it is a lot to learn about. Kaleb was very patient and answered every question I had. And believe me, I had lots of questions. I would recommend this dealership and Kaleb to anyone who is in search of a new vehicle and a friendly and knowledgeable sales associate. Kaleb and Brandon get a 5 star review from me :).

I was on my way to work after a doctor's appointment and realized I had a really bad flat tire. While searching for a gas station I came upon the HONDA dealership where I purchased my van. The young woman that waited on me was awesome. Knowing I was late to work she diligently worked to get me in so I would not have to wait long, She kept me informed of where I was in the order of service. Her actions and professional attitude made a frustrating experience much better for me......I would give the her the highest rating for customer service that you can give her. Thank you to her for helping me through a very frustrating experience.

The staff at Checkered Flag Honda is beyond great. I unexpectedly got rear-ended in my previous car one evening on my way home from work. With the repair assessment being much more than the car is worth, insurance declared it totaled. This came at a bad time- not only did my husband and I have to worry about the mere extra expense of having to get a new car, we have been working very hard to save money- especially to purchase our first home in the next few months when our apartment lease is up!The folks we worked with here understood our budget situation and our hesitancy with buying a new car (mind you- this would be my very first Brand New car) and gave us the best deal possible and dealing with them gave us much more piece of mind with our situation! Instead of taking advantage of our situation to be pushy as you usually expect sales people to be, it was the complete opposite. The experience was so easy-going and painless. They were patient, informative, and so helpful! We'd visited/test drove at 2 other dealers the night before we came here (and even planned on going back to one of those 2 the next day to finalize the purchase of a car), but it took no time at all to decide that Checkered Flag Honda would be the one we would purchase from! Right on the spot.

We had to get a car due to ours getting old and repair expenses getting high. We went to many dealerships looking for a used SUV. With the help of the fabulous Carl Dyson, we succeeded in getting all our needs taken care of. We purchased a 2012 Honda SUV and are loving it. Everyone was very helpful and the perks they give you (car washes and oil changes free, etc) sealed the deal.

The best car buying experience of my life. Josh Williams and Sammy provided a family friendly pressure free buying experience that was over the top. Definitely would recommend anyone looking at buying a vehicle to come take a look here. These guys treat you like family and they even let you test drive for 24 hours in our case twice. Great guys to work with.

We went to checkered Flag Honda to upgrade to a new Honda 2016 CRV. Mr Charles Hall immediately came out as we arrived. He was very friendly, personable, very pleasant to deal with. He put us at ease during the entire process & explained everything in detail. When we are ready for another new car we will be back. Thank you Mr Hall for our pleasant experience purchasing our new CRV. We will definitely recommend you to friends & family. Thanks again

I did not feel like he was pressuring me to buy a car, but he definitely encouraged me and made me feel comfortable about whatever decision I made. He is a great salesperson and has a very positive attitude! I can tell that he knows a lot about the company and really loves what he does. I highly recommend everyone to this place and ask for Mike!

I recently purchased a car from Larry Brown. I must say that he made buying my first car stress free. He answered all my questions and was more than happy to bring me to another lot to get the exact car that I wanted. He was very knowledgeable and helpful. I am more than satisfied with my 2014 Nissan Versa, for anyone who is a new car buyer or even nervous of the process Larry is the guy to go to for sure.

I recently took my boyfriends car who we bought from Larry brown. The service tech was a little confused about the cost of our service and Larry came by and asked if I was doing ok and he heard about the confusion and solved the problem for me in the blink of an eye. I walked out a very happy customer because of Larry Brown and their great service department!

After an accident, I was in search of a CPO Accord to replace my 2009 Camry. When I arrived at Checkered Flag to view their inventory, I was pleasantly surprised. Mike Evans was very patient, knowledgable, and personable. He made the experience worthwhile for me, and I never felt pressured or anxious. What I liked most is that if I had a question that he was unsure of, he didn't pretend to know the answer--he had no problem asking someone in order to get the best answer. I appreciated my experience here!

I bought a new 2015 Honda Civic from Checkered Flag Honda back in May 2015, almost a year ago. Brendan Powell was my sales person, and he did an amazing job. I still remember his great service!I loved their Simple Smart Fast program, it was exactly what they advertised. It was a painless experience, and I left knowing that I got a good deal. Brendan always replied to my e-mails very quickly, and gave me all the information I asked for. All the other dealerships I contacted would pull the usual stunt where they say we've got a great special on the car you want, just come on down to the dealership and we can talk about it". Brendan was the only person to actually answer the questions and provide the numbers I asked for.He was very friendly during the test drive, and he certainly knew his products well. I came back for my free state inspection a year later, and Brendan still recognized me and said hello and asked about how the car was treating me. I'm impressed that he remembered me after all that time, but it shows that he is great with the customer service. I'm impressed with Checkered Flag that he was still there after at least a year, and not moved on to another job somewhere else - employee retention is certainly a good sign!I'm always nervous about buying cars, and I'm usually skeptical about fake online reviews, but take it from me, these guys are the read deal! Overall, I was very happy with my experience at Checkered Flag, and I would be happy to buy from them again and refer others to them. Thanks for the great service Brendan, you the man!-Matt

We made an appointment, but come to the place and had to wait a long time to even get someone to asked what we're hear for. When someone finally came, she was very rude and wouldn't answer my questions. They said they ordered the parts already and told to make an appointment to come and get the part installed. However, when we came at appointment time, they said to wait and come back 2-3 days for them to order the parts. Terrible service.

I was very impressed with Carl Dyson when I was in for service on my Accord in Jan 2016. When I decided to trade in my Accord for a new one, I knew I wanted to work with Carl. I went to the dealership and asked for him, and I was not disappointed. Being in Real Estate sales myself, I can appreciate a salesman with knowledge of his product, clean cut, personable and straight forward. We bought a new Accord, and Carl has been extremely kind with his time and expertise getting the paperwork competed, and even more so explaining the workings of all the electronics and systems of the new Honda. Thank you Carl!

For the first time in my car buying experience, I dealt with someone that I had been referred to online, which was Brendan. I was apprehensive at first because many years ago I had a bad experience with Checkered Flag, but I had heard through friends that things had changed and boy have they! I cannot express how pleased I am not only with my new vehicle but with the ease and comfort the purchasing process was thanks to Brendan. Brendan's knowledge of not only the purchasing process but the vehicle itself was superb. As a matter of fact, everyone that I dealt with was extremely helpful and courteous. I will most definitely recommend Checkered Flag and Brendan to all of my friends and coworkers.

Checkered Flag Honda hasn't let me down yet! In February I purchased my 3rd Honda Accord from Checkered Flag Honda. I previously dealt with Ben Mung Aithi (quite an exceptional salesman) but my most recent Product Specialist was Josh Williams. Josh had to search high and low for the exact Accord Make and Model I was looking for and definitely delivered exactly the exact vehicle I was looking for while keeping me consistently updated on the process. I can't say enough positive things about Checkered Flag Honda and I'm a repeat customer for life!

I drove home my new baby last night, a 2016 CRV SE, and I couldn't be happier! I traded in a 2004 Honda Odyssey and they gave me a fair trade in price for it. Our salesman was Nathan Santiaguel and he was great! He talked us through everything, showed us all the ins and outs and was able to find me exactly what I wanted. He was thorough and bent over backwards for us. Our finance guy, DJ, explained everything and we were able to get the low interest rate. I would also like to mention Paul, the gentleman who gave us the trade in offer. He was more than fair and we were able to upgrade our choice of vehicle. This is the third vehicle we have purchased from Checkerd Flag and our experiences have always been great! We are definitely sold on your dealership (my brother has also purchased 2 vehicles there) and will be customers for life! Thank you Nathan for being a GREAT salesman!!!

Super happy with my husband and I's first car purchase! After talking to a lot of my friends, I expected to dread the process of looking for a car. Normally, you have salesmen who are trying to just get as much as they can get out of you (ripping you off of really getting a good deal). My husband and I visited Checkered Flag Honda, just scanning around the cars, and one of their salesmen come out and greet us in a very friendly matter, and immediately offered to help us out. Larry Brown, our salesman, has been a huge reason why we settled for the car that we did. Being first time buyers, he explained everything he had to explain. He was very patient with us, for having so many questions and even allowing us to take a couple cars out for a test drive. Financially, my husband and I were looking for the best deal, and he tried making arrangements for us by helping us contact the lowest rate we could find to pay for the car, helping us contact the right insurance company to get the best deal on those rates, and also helped us out with getting a great warranty on the car for a really good price. My husband and I take customer service very seriously, and what we experienced with Larry Brown was phenomenal!! If any one is every interested in purchasing a car, I'd DEFINITELY suggest going to Larry Brown, because he will do everything he can to please you (in the most honest and genuine way)! Way to go, Larry Brown! Thank you for helping make our car dreams come true! Also, shout out to Stan, too! He helped explain a lot about the best and most affordable warranty on the car that we could get! Overall, great team at Checkered Flag Honda!

I have just completed my 3rd Accord purchase from Checkered Flag Honda and my experience gets better every time! I previously dealt with Ben Mung Aithi (excellent salesman!) but this time was assisted by Josh Williams. Since I was very particular about make and model, Josh had to search high and low for exactly what I needed. Not only did he fulfil my requests, he kept me updated on the progress he was making and I truly couldn't be happier with my new Honda. I am once again very happy with Checkered Flag Honda and the wonderful employees that assisted me with the process of buying a new car. I am a repeat customer for life!

I spoke to Michael Evans recently about purchasing a car. I am a member of the United States Army and will be in the area soon. He was more than happy to help me and told me all about the fast simple smart process of buying a car. He was very knowledgeable when it came to the different vehicles Checkered Flag had to offer me. He was willing to answer any questions I had, and not one time did he talk down to me or make me feel stupid for having questions. He made it clear to me that he was there to help and anything I needed he would gladly assist. Although I didn't quite make my mind up yet about which car I want to purchase I know if I do choose Honda I will definitely be doing business with Mr. Evans.

I plan on buying a car soon, but I did not automatically know what I wanted and was having a difficult time narrowing it down. But upon speaking with Michael Evans I knew immediately that getting a Honda would be the best option for me. Although he told me he had just started, Michael was very knowledgeable, and didn''t mind me asking a million questions. The one thing that stuck out to me was the one set price as opposed to other dealerships in the area and the fast simple smart program. Even though I did not purchase a car yet, I will definitely be returning to buy from Michael!

I spoke to Michael Evans recently about purchasing a car. I am a member of the United States Army and will be in the area soon. He was more than happy to help me and told me all about the fast simple smart process of buying a car. He was very knowledgeable when it came to the different vehicles Checkered Flag had to offer me. He was willing to answer any questions I had, and not one time did he talk down to me or make me feel stupid for having questions. He made it clear to me that he was there to help and anything I needed he would gladly assist. Although I didn't quite make my mind up yet about which car I want to purchase I know if I do choose Honda I will definitely be doing business with Mr. Evans.

The best part about my car buying experience was working with Howie Bell. He made me feel comfortable and relaxed and showed me the best hassle free and easy car buying experience I've ever had. Thank you Howie, you are a true professional!

I plan on buying a car soon, but I did not automatically know what I wanted and was having a difficult time narrowing it down. But upon speaking with Michael Evans I knew immediately that getting a Honda would be the best option for me. Although he told me he had just started, Michael was very knowledgeable, and didn't mind me asking a million questions. The one thing that stuck out to me was the one set price as opposed to other dealerships in the area and the fast simple smart program. Even though I did not purchase a car yet, I will definitely be returning to buy from Michael!

No hassle, no haggling. The price is the price. Our sales person, Amy Smith was knowledgeable and pleasant. Overall a very good experience and would recommend over checkered flag over regional competitors.

Checkered flag honda is one of the best dealerships i've dealt with ever! Larry Brown was awesome, his explanation of the fast, simple smart process was clear. He was ALWAYS available even through a sickness throughout the process for me - literally just one call away!

I went to Checkered Flag last week to look at the new Honda Civic. I wasn't intending to purhase that day and I didn't have to! Larry sent me home in the car for the day so that I could get a feel for it and see if I liked it. There was no pressure to buy the car but when I returned with the car I was getting such a great deal that my mind was made up. Larry listened to my needs and concerns and hooked me up with the car and all of the additional things that I was looking for. This was my first new car ever and Larry made it simple for me. I was nervous at first but walking out with the car I was confident that I made the right decision and got the best price. This is where you want to buy your next car.

I looked around town for a cheap car, something to get me from A to B, and I go to Checkered Flag Honda by recommendation, I regret having wasted my time looking anywhere else. I walk in and 3 hours later I'm driving off the lot with a brand spanking new 2106 Honda Civic EX for almost the exact amount I was going to spend on an old beater. Larry made it possible to get the perfect car, both for my needs and to have fun with. Sammy at Finances helped crunch the numbers to make the deal work, and thanks to the Fast Simple Smart process, everything was stress free. I kicked back and drank the best hot chocolate while these guys did what they do best. Super satisfied, every person I hear that wants to buy a car I send without a doubt to Larry and rest assured that he will bend backwards for them like he did for me.

If you want a HONDA, go to Checkered Flag Norfolk, VA and Ask for AMY R. SMITH! She is sweet, can get you answers to your questions and will take care of you. She even helped us get an owner's manual via email for the pre-owned car we purchased. And, she help us get information about extended warranty when we had a difficult time contacting the Finance Dept. --Remember to ASK FOR AMY!! Thank you Amy

Larry Brown and Checkered Flag Honda were outstanding during every step of the buying process. Checkered Flag uses an aggressive upfront, bottom-line pricing model that matches or beats prices of buying services (I checked!) prices most of the time. And there is no games with Checkered Flag. There is no bait and switch (unlike Truecar). Their bottom-line price is right on the website (unlike Costco) and if it is not, call them and they will get you the price straight away without a bunch of questions. Because of this, I would feel comfortable sending people to buy cars there that are not good at negotiating because there is basically no negotiation until the financing stage. There is almost no chance to get ripped off. You just find a car you like and if their price works for you, just buy it! It saves you time and there is no literally no pressure concerning price, when or what to buy. Also, they encourage you to do overnight test drives (highly recommended!) and have no problem with you registering your vehicle out of state (military).I initially bought a 2016 Civic EX with Sensing from Larry and Checkered Flag in Jan 2016. The car was a lot of fun, but on the third day I finally noticed I had trouble getting comfortable while driving. After a bit of research, I realized that there is no law that allows a buyer to return a car within 3 days of purchase. I started to really stress out, but after a couple texts to Larry, he just told me to bring it back to the dealership that night (Checkered Flag policy is 3 days/~300 miles limit/does not apply for dealer exchanges). I promptly returned the vehicle. I was so embarrassed and definitely thought they would not be happy with me, but Larry and the rest of the staff were incredibly nice about it. I signed a couple documents and I was out of the office in less than 30 minutes and he even had the lot attendant, Marquis, give me a ride home! How is that for service?!After realizing I was used to driving a truck (Dodge Dakota) and an exhaustive research and test drives of most of the trucks and 3-row crossovers on the market (with a lot more attention paid to the drivers seat!), I finally decided the 2016 Honda Pilot was the vehicle for me. Larry was able to get a Silver EXL that I wanted in a dealer exchange. After only a week of owning it, I absolutely love it. It feels so luxurious and roomy, yet still fun to drive. Although in the city MPGs has not been quite up to estimates (I think that is due to limited sample size), on my first road trip, I was blown away that I got 2 mpg better than the sticker on the highway (29.0 was actual mpg calculated by dividing trip miles by gallons at the pump, computer said 30.5 mpg for the trip) with 2wd version. Larry, no worries, I will not be bringing this one back! ;)If you look up cool, low pressure salesman in Websters, you will see a picture of Larry Brown. When I first met him, he let me take cars right off the lot on test drives by myself without signing anything. I think he is so successful because he really acts as your advocate before, during and after the purchase. He is honest and will tell you the truth, which means sometimes he will tell you not to buy a car because he does not think it is a good fit. He really wants you to find the right car, not just a quick sale. He lets you go at your pace and does not rush anything. He provides follow up service even after the purchase...believe me...I know! He met me on his day off to help with a bluetooth issue with the Civic before I returned it. Another cool thing is that if you want something other than a Honda, Larry can help you out with other brands if they are within the Checkered Flag family (Toyota and Hyundai to name a few). He will meet you at the other Checkered Flag Dealer and help you pick out another vehicle so you can deal with the same rep. I was even able to do back to back test drives of different brands and side by side comparisons (Honda Pilot/Toyota Highlander)! When Larry was out of the office, Amy Smith provided excellent information and service. I would not hesitate to recommend her as well.

We went to Checkered Flag Honda, Norfolk after researching via internet. We were helped by Amy Smith who was very pleasant and able to answer our questions. We drove home with a Pre-owned CRV. She also gave us her direct line which was very helpful, since I called her to help me contact Finance Dept for an extended warranty. We wanted to get an owner's manual. She emailed one to us. Thank you Amy for your help. We really like our vehicle.--We had long wait with Finance Dept in person & through phone

The customer service with all the staff was EXCELLENT! They were attentive to my needs and I was out of the door with my brand New car in less than an hour. Mr. Carl went above and beyond with handling my vehicle purchase and the detailer had my new car beautiful before I left....right before closing. I love this dealership!

Checkered Flag Honda gave us our best car buying experience (4th vehicle purchased) ever, their straight forward policies made for a great no hassle negotiation where the focus was on making sure we got the best value for our money in a car we really liked. Josh Williams provided a very pleasant buying experience, he went above and beyond to help us find the best car to fit our needs and budget. I highly recommend his services for an excellent, worry free experience. He took the time to explain and demonstrate all the cool features of the CRV. Every step of the process was smooth and very clear, the management and finance staff were very through and friendly. Thank you Checkered Flag Honda for having such an honest and customer friendly business. We are in love with our new CRV and the great buying experience was icing on the cake.

Great customer service, Aaron was very knowledgeable and very easy to talk to. Great young salesman with a good grip on how to place the customer in the best possible vehicle to fit their situation. HE stresses that "listening" to the customers is his strongest point as it helps him clearly convey what they are looking for, and to help the client get in the best car for them as opposed to what car would give the best commission.

The fact that your dealership matched the coupon price/work that I could have got it done for else where. Shows good business sense; it takes "business" away from your competitors while keeping you employees gainfully employed.

I came in on a cold Sunday and wasn't really expecting much. Nathan came out and greated us right away. The way he talked to us and explained how they do things had my a little apprehensive at first. As he started to show us several vehicles and kept everything very professional I began to feel better. We chose a car that was within out price range and I thought it was going to be a long wait. Nathan made everything simple for us and we were out of there in no time. Love the fact that it's a no haggle place and oil changes are free!!! Definetly will recommend friends and family here and have them ask for Nathan!

I also love the upfront pricing no haggling it saves you a lot of extra time they tell you what they can do for you up front. It's not just one of those regular dealerships where you go in and they try to mess with you on price I would definitely go back and purchase another vehicle and recommend this to all my friends.

My wife and I recently bought a vehicle from this dealership from our salesman, Nathan. We had the best experience from this dealership than I had in the past from Hall. We looked for a vehicle and were offered to test drive it until the following day. The next day, we came back and decided on a higher Trim model. The process of finding the higher trim model in a different color using their computer system was as easy as pie!! On the financing end of things, we were offered a great APR using Honda Financial with the help of Stan. Stan did not push hard on back end items, although, we had come to great negotiations with what we wanted and decided to purchase on the back end as well. The "No Haggle"/"Up-front pricing" made everything much easier than other dealerships. Oh, and another thing, free oil changes for life and they use the synthetic oil! My daughter will be graduation in 2 years and I sure do hope Nathan and Stan will still be working at Checkered Flag Honda!! We will definitely purchase here again! Thank again, guys!!

I seem to always have a successful outcome when dealing with Terry Ruffin and his team. I brought my 2nd Honda Accord 2000 red se model there and another advisor and her team totally missed how bad my brake system was after I told them something was definitely wrong with it. Well after I brought it to Terry and his team. They were able to tell me everything I needed to know about what needs to be fixed on the car just a month later

Even though I was a walk-in customer with no prior appointment on the last day of the month, I was able to get a safety inspection for my '01 Honda Accord. By also consenting to a free 32-point inspection, the safety inspection fee was waived... and after being informed that my transmission fluid was dark and needed changing, I agreed to let your technician perform that service for me. I was on my way again after about 3 hours in the customer lounge, but considering my walk-in status... I'm satisfied.

I contacted the dealership via e-mail and asked to test drive a Honda Pilot. I was contacted by Larry (Laurence) Brown who arranged my test drive. He met me in guest parking and was very professional from the beginning. I drove the Pilot EX. He then showed me the LX which had some additional features. I ended up purchasing a LX. I worked with Larry for a two week timeframe, changing my mind several times regarding the color I wanted. He was extremely patient with me. Additionally, I met the team leader, was called by the team leader, and met with the finance POC. Each of these individuals was extremely professional and helpful. This is about the fourth vehicle I have purchased from Checkered Flag Honda. Each experience was pain free with NO pressure.

I felt as if i came into a family member's home at Checkered Flag Honda. I didn't feel pressured into buying a Civic which was my first choice. Now, I'm very HAPPY with my final choice, a new Honda Accord 2016!

Amy answered my questions about the vehicles I was looking at. I started out looking for Accords and wanted comparisons to the Civic in terms of gas mileage, amenities/features, durability, service issues, etc. She is very knowledgeable about Honda's and answered my questions with patience, even after spending over 4 hours with me the first day as I just looked and asked questions. She was very pleasant to work with and did not place any pressure on my decision to purchase my vehicle. She was there to answer my questions and that in turn gave me ample space to think through what I really wanted and needed. I went home to do more homework before purchasing and then returned and decided, after all of that, on a CR-V. I like the upfront pricing and they gave me, what I thought, a relatively fair trade value for my car.

Good Morning,I just wanted to express my gratitude for Larry Brown. I bought a 2013 Hyundai Accent from Larry in 2013 and even though he has moved on to Honda, he still takes the time to make sure I am taken care of. I can message him any time of the day with car questions and any concerns I may have and he always goes above and beyond to make sure I am recieving outstanding service at Hyundai. He is especially awesome because anyone can promise to take care of you when you purchase a vehicle.. But Larry goes above and beyond to make sure I always have a good experience even though he is at Honda. He doesn't just talk the talk, he walks the walk. Thank you Larry for being so awesome and helpful! You rock!

From the moment of stepping on the lot through the purchase of my 2016 Honda Civic, it was readily apparent that customer service and satisfaction are high priorities at Checkered Flag. We were immediately greeted by Larry Brown and he actively listened to what we were interested in and wasted no time in showing us the Civic. He answered all of our questions, quickly had us set up for a test drive, demonstrated the sensoring features available on the Civic and then took us to Checkered Flag Toyota and Hyundai to see and test drive the Corolla and the Elantra. Larry genuinely cared about helping us find the car that was the best fit for us. In one afternoon we were able to see and drive the three cars we were interested in. Larry was knowledgeable on all three and, if he had any doubt in answering a question, he verified the information and provided a solid response. Our goal when stepping on the lot was to see and drive a Civic. Because of Larry's proactiveness, we not only experienced the Civic, but the two other vehicles of interest. Larry is professional, genuine, and the epitome of customer service. Once we decided on the Civic, he stayed late working with us to make the purchase. Checkered Flag's no hassle purchasing policy made the process smooth, streamlined and stress free. DJ in the finance department was a pleasure to work with. His knowledge and skill expedited the purchase and his focus on the customer was also readily apparent and appreciated. Checkered Flag Honda has an exemplary staff. Everyone we came in contact with was eager to assist and meet and exceed our needs. We subsequently returned to purchase floor mats and wheel locks and had a similar, pleasurable experience in the parts department. This week we had an appointment to have the exterior and interior preservation package applied. Upon arriving at the dealership, Larry already had a loaner car waiting for me at the door and took my car over for service. The preservation work took longer than anticipated, but was done superbly and Larry once again was available and made the process seamless. I would highly recommend, Checkered Flag to family and friends. It was by far the best car buying experience I have ever had and the follow up with parts and service was also stress free and yielded favorable results. Larry was key in each and every aspect and an extremely valuable asset to Checkered Flag.

After deciding to order a 2016 Honda Fit from Checkered Flag Honda, I contacted Larry Brown after reading many positive reviews about him. He got back with me quickly and sent me an out the door price that fit my budget. As promised, Larry contacted me every time he knew something about the car's arrival time. After a 2-1/2 hour drive to Checkered Flag, I picked the car up on November 25th. Larry had it parked in the showroom to keep it clean and had attached some balloons to it which made it a fun way to see my new car. He was very happy to show me how everything worked on the car and never seemed bothered by all of my questions. Many thanks to Larry Brown and Checkered Flag Honda for getting me this great car. This is a wonderful dealership.

This was our best car buying experience ever! Larry Brown was friendly, knowledgable, and very laid back. No pressure!! We shopped around and ended up right back at Checkered Flag. They had the best price we found and definitely treated us the best. After looking at nearly every small to mid size SUV we narrowed it down to two. Larry set it up so we could compare the two, from different dealerships, side by side. This really helped us make our decision.

My husband needed a new car for a new job. Larry approached us on a very late Sunday afternoon & was so laid back and helpful that my husband went back on Monday & it was a done deal! What I didn't expect was that I would be enticed to purchase one too! While it will be a couple months before I sign the dotted line, Larry will be my man for the job! Thank you Larry for making this experience way easier than it should be to part with such a large amount of money! See you soon!Sincerely Deborah & Brett Bender

Brendan Powell did a great job in this process of buying a new Honda Pilot. He and the team did everything to get us the Pilot we wanted they did not have the color pilot on there lot but within a week they had the pilot ex and color we wanted it was the best experience of buying a vehicle i have ever had to date thanks so much.

I had a great purchase experience. I selected the vehicle I wanted while the dealership was closed. I went back in the morning and asked to test the vehicle overnight. The salesman, Carl Dyson was happy to provide me the opportunity. I kept the car overnight and prior to returning the next afternoon, I was sure it was the right vehicle for me. When the deal was all but done, my only statement was, 'where is my other key'.

I put my car in to the shop at 9am because I had an appointment... How is it that I can make an appointment and it not even go into the shop until 2:30pm? I understand if they are backed-up and it takes like an hour to get in the shop but not 5 and a half hours later! What's more upsetting is that I asked for a loaner vehicle for the day and they told me I couldn't have one because I didn't need one since it wouldn't take that long for the things that needed to get done to my car. Well, here I am stuck at home when I need to go do things but I can't because I couldn't have a loaner. This is B/S.

I went there looking for my first car, I had a budget Larry respected my limit and didn't push anything I wasn't comfortable with. Larry at checkered flag Honda was just amazing!! He stayed with me till we found a car that I really wanted took me to three stores. He's super knowledgeable with cars and is all about customer service never been treated better. You'd think that customer service is always top priority but unfortunately it's not for most places. If you need a car go to Larry, I can't thank him enough!!

Even at the last minute, I changed my mind on cars (glad I did!) and Dan made it work for me.Also worked with Brandon Robbins on the trade of my vehicle. Brandon couldn't have been more helpful with my trade and made it very painless for me to trade in.Overall, both of these gentleman were great to do business with!

Upfront no haggle pricing is a great tool. Vehicle was priced fairly. but however it was still 2k more than sticker out the door. Window price should reflect out the door price. Trade in was awarded at a price very close to what I expected. Chad and Sherri and the entire sales staff were exceptional.

Great experience until my son went to the finance table and the interest rate (quoted in writing) increased 1.5%. When I called back the blame game between the salesman and finance guy began. The team did nothing to rectify the problem. I've bought here before and had a great experience. Hopefully this was just a glitch!

I just got my Pilot today, and I loved it! Larry was very professional, kind, and helpful. Since they didn't have the Pilot with sensing in stock, Larry tried very hard and located one for me quickly. That was just sooooo efficient. I mean, as a client, besides the attractive price, quality of the product and fantastic service are what we really need. If you agree with me, come and look for Larry Brown, he could help to meet your needs!

After searching online and visiting different dealerships for a CRV, I decided to go with Checkered Flag. I started the process with an online inquiry and received a quick response from Nathan Santiaguel. He laid everything out in the email about the FSS price, the "out the door price", how we could do business, all the ways I could contact him, trade in info and the 72 hour money back guarantee. He basically left the ball in my court. I liked that. I don't like being hassled or "vultured" while car shopping. I set up a time to meet and arrived early. The dealership was PACKED. Nathan was helping other customers but, I never felt neglected and he explained everything that was going on. He had the car I wanted parked right out front and really, it was just paperwork to go over and sign. I did have an opportunity to work with Brandon on the trade in value for my old car. He was great. Just as personable and easy going as Nathan. I feel like I got a good trade in value for my old car and that Nathan took his time answering my questions and I never once felt pressured. Nathan even went over the car's features once it was cleaned and delivered. Thanks Nathan for making my first car purchase in over 15 years a good experience.

Brandon Angelillo was a pleasure to work with, both over email and in person. Checkered Flag had had a great price up front and as advertised, and Brandon's low key approach made the purchase process easy. He explained all of the features of the car before, during, and after the test drive. I might have been able to haggle my way to the same low price at another dealership, but I think Checkered Flag should be rewarded for sticking to its low advertised prices and no haggle approach with no surprises.

Brandon Angelillo was a pleasure to work with, both over email and in person. Checkered Flag had had a great price up front and as advertised, and Brandon's low key approach made the purchase proceed easy. He explained all of the features of the car before, during, and after the test drive. I might have been able to haggle my way to the same low price at another dealership, but I think Checkered Flag should be rewarded for sticking to its low advertised prices and no haggle approach with no surprises.

Went to Checkered Flag in Va Beach and was met by a warm greeting from Brandon Angelillo, he was very knowledgeable about the cars that was displayed on the lot. I was very impressed with his professionalism and of course he was very courteous. I did not purchase a car but will definitely go back to get one from him!!

My wife and I would like to thank Mr. Larry Brown for the dedication and effort that he put in on ensuring us our brand new 2016 Honda Pilot. We almost gave up on looking for the car that we wanted but he was 100% determined on getting us a Black on Black Pilot. Thank you Larry for your excellent service!

My experience was totally different from any car buying experience I've had. The salesman was straight forward with the vehicle prices and how the dealership operated he did his job well. The initial process was great financing the delivery of the car was really smooth. Everything was going great until realized we weren't supposed to leave the dealership with our trade in car plates on our brand new car after contacting the out of state DMV we were told that was a huge mistake and we needed to return to the dealership to request a temp tag. That didn't go over smoothly I was told by a customer service agent DJ in financing that it wasn't his job or anyone else's job to help me with my tag and registration in a mean tone of voice and that he was doing me a favor so at this point I'm in disbelief now feeling stuck with a brand new car and not enough answers so I returned to the dealership the same day looking for answers I received nothing but the same paper work I was recently given and temp tags. I called the titling department where I was introduced to the customer service agent in which was handling the out of state tags. I was informed that she would help me get the proper registration and tags. I even sign a auto power of attorney so if there were any hiccups everything could be handle swiftly. I was hopeful between May 7 and August 21 I have yet to receive the out of state tags and reg. My husband and I are at the breaking point our hands are tied the customer agent that was handling our out of state tag and reg has received a promotions so she's out of the loop some where along the line we fell in between the cracks. Progress and questions are only ask and checked on when we call and check the status of our out of state tags and reg with the titling dept. I've call Ga DMV every week to check the status and it's always something wrong with the paper work or the bill amount to register nothing was accurate the check wasn't the right amount. I called the dealership today several times I wasn't able to reach anyone I made one more attempt before writing this review I made contact with the salesman who I purchased the car he was shock that this wasn't dissolved. I was told that I would receive a call from solutions after he finished a office meeting with a customer it's now 4 hours later I'm still at a stand still I haven't spoke with anyone. This experience is draining we're trying to stay positive but it's seeming impossible. We've made 4 car payments to only have temp tags without the proper reg and tags I honestly don't think anyone cares we have already purchased the car. My advice would be if you're looking to purchase a car with out of state tags you may want to think twice about it.

After scheduling another oil change & tire rotation visit to Checkered Flag Honda in Norfolk, we began to discuss the possibility of getting a different car with more room. Our 2013 Honda CR-V with 46,000 miles had been a wonderful vehicle for us for the last 2 years, but the 2015 Honda Pilot advertisement caught our eyes. We asked our salesman, Carl Dyson, if he could show us the new Pilot. Within four hours we had made the decision to buy the new car because of Carl's salesmanship, the great trade-in price we got on our CR-V, the firm price of the new car, and the low interest rate on the car loan. Our last two years of service from Carl and all of the Service Department personnel have been nothing short of excellent. Without any reservation, we wholeheartedly recommend Checkered Flag Honda for all your automotive needs.

After being frustrated from looking at cars all day, my last stop of the day ended up being a great one. I found out that they have a salesperson rotation, and another saleswoman kind of passed me along to Dillon Reeves, her mistake because this guy was my (product specialist). I still like the term car salesman. I found my Toyota Camry at a Honda Dealership lol He went to get the keys as it was pouring down raining. Small talk actually sold the car , after the car features pitch, blah blah blah, we laughed and joked about things, life, which made the experience even better.

Brandon and Sammy are both great. We picked the dealership because of the location, current sale, no haggle price but we were still a little skeptical about being ambushed with higher prices and hidden fees. Brandon made us feel right at home. He was very friendly and easy to connect with. He'd also pulled the car we had looked at online and a second option for us to consider. He explained everything about the car and answered all of our questions. he also stayed with us until the very end when we drove off the lot. If he wasn't making more money with you guys I would have tried to poach him for my job. I do have to say that everyone there did an amazing job as well.

I recently purchased a Honda Fit at the Checkered Flag Honda in Norfolk, VA. The experience was as promised, no haggle and no hassle. My salesperson, Brendan Powell, was courteous, knowledgeable and friendly. He did not pressure me to buy any vehicle, but he was eager and willing to allow me to test drive a variety of cars before I decided to purchase a Honda. The dealership offered a fair trade on the car I wanted to sell. Overall, my experience at the dealership was quite positive, and I love my new Honda Fit.

Kevin is a GREAT salesman. The best that I have met. What he tells you he'll do. He's a very honest guy. He's dedicated to his job. He went above and beyond for us...literally drove from Virginia to North Carolina to make sure our car deal was completed. And Sammy Custodio the finance person helped us get everything we wanted and needed for the cheapest price and in a short period of time. Highly recommended to anyone looking for a New or Used Car!!!

If you need a Honda go see Kevin Dailey at Checkered Flag. I was deciding between a Honda CR-V and another vehicle . Unfortunately I did not buy a car from Kevin but he had awesome customer service !! He was very prompt and thorough in answering all questions! Honda's are excellent vehicles though as my previous car was a Honda Pilot. I liked the set pricing also. Very competitive pricing.

I walked into the dealership looking to test drive a Hyundai Elantra that I had seen on the Checkered Flag website. When I got there, I noticed a man at his desk looking at his phone. He never greeted me. I walked past him. I rounded the corner and was greeted by LARRY BROWN. He asked me if I had been helped. I advised him that I had not been. I told him what I was looking for. He showed me the Elantra right away told me about a few of the specs and let me take it for a drive. It wasn't what I expected so he showed me the 2015 Honda Civic. This car is so nice. But it was a big decision and I really was not sure. Larry and his team went above and beyond to help me out and make sure I was comfortable with my purchase. Dj in finance went over the numbers. And even the next day they were able to get a few more dollars off for me. Even in service Markus was super polite. Larry Brown has called to check on me to see how I was doing in the car and if I needed anything and two weeks later he also called to let me know that they had found a my cell phone I had lost in the car. This dealership would be lost without LARRY BROWN is is truly an asset. When I buy my next vehicle Checked Flag Honda And Larry Brown.

My car buying experience was remarkable. Aaron listened to what was important to me, and gave excellent guidance so I could make a well informed decision. I never, ever felt pressured toward a particular vehicle. In fact, we drove to multiple Checkered Flag lots looking for the right vehicle. Even when I thought I had found the right vehicle, Aaron kept combing through the inventory until he literally found the exact car I had in mind for cheaper than I had anticipated. I didn't even have to go to the DMV. Aaron handled the tags, taxes, and registration right there! Stan in Finance was very easy to talk and provided me with great advice. I walked in with a car in mind. I drove off with that car! Just like that. It was nothing short of phenomenal!!! I would recommend Checkered Flag Honda to everyone, even if you are not looking for a Honda.

I am an out-of-towner, but work here in Norfolk. My car wouldn't start and was towed in without an appointment. Once the service department knew I was unable to go anywhere without my car (specifically Terry at the service department), he got the car in as soon as he could and they completed necessary maintenance the same day - GREATLY APPRECIATED! The service department also clued me in to upcoming necessary maintenance (brake pad wear). Overall, I am a very satisfied customer. Thank you for providing an excellent service.

I arrived at Checkered Flag about 5:00 pm after my car lost power on the interstate. Terry Ruffin was very polite and gave me a loaner car. When he called me back he said they recommend to replace the electronic ignition with no cost - because of the warranty. I have a 1997 Honda Accord. So far I have had it back on the interstate and everything appears to be working fine. My scary bad experience on the interstate turned out good.

The next evening we were driving out to dinner in our Grand Caravan. Larry is the salesman you always wanted when looking for a vehicle. He nailed it on the head what we wanted. He was extremely knowledgeable, helpful and kind. Stan Anders and Sammy in the finance department made our purchase a breeze and gave us such good advice.

Dillon our salesman was helpful from the very beginning even when we told him we already had a salesman. When that salesman fell through we felt extremely confident going back to Dillon. He was always available for questions and did everything he said he was going to! The management staff was also extremely friendly and helpful in the whole process. It made the car buying experience a lot more exciting! No one was ever pushy, but instead completely patient with us while we made our decision! We also returned to Checkered Flag after very unprofessional service at other dealerships! Recommend visiting CF Honda!!!

Upon meeting with him, he was able to set me up with everything I needed for my daily use. Kind young man that was extremely knowledgeable, willing and able to find what I was looking for, and made the whole process very easy. Excellent representative at an excellent dealership. Will definitely be a return customer.

We were looking for a safe, used car and that is exactly what we got. Daniel was friendly, sincere and eager to find the perfect car for her. I would recommend Daniel to anyone who needs a car! He truly listens to your needs and works tirelessly to find what you need. The whole team at Checkered Flag was so professional and worked well together.

My search for a used vehicle for my son ended when I arrived at checkered flag Honda. This would be my son's first experience buying a car. Kaleb greeted us with a smile. He was very eager to assist us. After discussing what are needs were, Kaleb searched the site until he was able to find a vehicle within our price range. We were able to test drive and was very pleased with the vehicle. Kaleb made all the necessary arrangements for the vehicle purchase. Sammy handled the financial portion of the deal. He did an excellent job at explaining the responsibility my son would assume as a first time car owner. This experience assures me that I made the right choice. Both men were very professional and very knowledgeable. I would glady buy from checkered flag honda again. Thanks so much guys!Sincerely,A extremely satisfied customer.

Checkered Flag Honda and Larry Brown made my car buying experience a true pleasure. You can tell Larry loves what he does and truly cares about getting people the right car for their needs. He explained the new system they operate under and it made everything go smooth as silk. Checkered Flag's Fast Simple Smart pricing was better than any other dealer was offering. And it made the purchase exactly what it states, FAST SIMPLE and SMART. Thanks Larry and Checkered Flag for making my car purchase fun.

If you want to purchase a Honda in the Hampton Roads area, please pay a visit to Checkered Flag Honda. My Digital Product Specialist, Shantiel was great and I already recommended her to two of my colleagues who are looking to buy a new vehicle. I strongly believe all car dealerships should mimic the way this establishment treats their customers, which is without the sales tactic that runs consumers away and makes the car buying experience horrible and dreadful. The upfront pricing and no hassle type of sales technique

My purchase of a new vehicle at Checkered Flag Honda was by far the best buying experience I have ever had. The entire team of sales people at this dealership was friendly, helpful and pleasant to work with. I loved the low pressure sell from my salesman, Larry Brown. I had been to quite a few dealerships in Virginia Beach and quite honestly was put off by the arrogant sales people. This stop was the last stop I made and in a short time I was riding away in a car that made me happy. No reason to go anywhere else to compare anything. I was truly taken care of by all involved! Thank you to everyone at Checkered Flag for making my purchase enjoyable!

Excellent dealership and courteous employees. It's all hard work and friendly service, employees go above and beyond to understand what you are looking for and work with you, especially with financial concerns. We were in and out within a weekend which was most appreciated.

I worked with Kaleb. Although I ultimately did not buy my car via this dealership, Kaleb was attentive to the needs of my wife and I, and always willing and able to go the extra mile to help us learn something or answer some questions. This dealership is unique in that they assign their cars a grade of "A" to "G" I believe. An "A" car is worth more to them than a "G" car. They explain this when they first meet you that their dealership is a "one price, no negotiation" dealership since March 2015. I think that there is some "wiggle room" on the price though.

Larry Brown is by far the best salesman Ive ever dealt with. He has made himself available to me to answer any questions that I have even after my purchase was complete. I will NEVER buy a car form anyone else.

larry brown helped my 19 year old daughter buy her very first brand new car. He worked very hard to help her find what she wanted and made the process very easy. He took very good care of my daughter and made sure she made an informed decision. I will continue to use Larry Brown when ever me or my family needs a new car.

We came to the lot knowing exactly what we were looking for and within minutes we were test driving a freshly washed VW Golf. On the ride we decided this is what we were getting and when we got back to the dealership Carl Dyson was ready to go and we were in and out in a flash with our new car. All in all the whole process only took a couple hours and we were very impressed. We will definitely be returning to buy our next car.

Came in at the dealership already knowing what I wanted and Anthony Kinade helped me through the process with enduring patience!!! Took all the time to walk me through all the blows and whistles that came with my Honda CR-V EX 2015. I LOVE THE SUV!!! Everyone at the dealership were pleasant as well.....great service....NO HASSLE!!!

My sales person and the whole Checkered Flag Team made my experience amazing. After coming from a horrible experience from another Dealership right across the street (Cadillac) Renwick was one of the most honest and friendliest car salesman I ever met. Made the whole experience worth my while and the whole Checkered Flag team were just as friendly. I will recommend everyone to them.

Walked in to buy a Honda accord sport. Already knowing what I wanted and the price I was willing to pay I spoke with Renwick and he was quick to meet my pricing. Little to no hassle, we moved quickly through the whole process. Even got a sweet 40" tv with the promotion they had going.

I am extremely pleased with checkered Flag Honda. This is my third car purchased from Dennis Anderson and he delivered me excellent service. He is a delightful, professional and honest person. Dennis knew exactly what I wanted and needed and I left driving my car.

Purchased four cars from Paul Sudo he looks out for the military, He helped us get a great price on our trade in and searched until he found the model we wanted and specifications. The service department is very friendly and helpful even for last minute appointments. The finance specialist was professional and explained all the benefits of the extended warranty's.I would recommend this dealership to anyone who does not want to haggle over prices for hours. Quick purchase and closing, no games at this dealership.

I went to Checkered Flag Honda looking to lease a Honda Civic after visiting several other dealerships. I chose Checkered because of the great costumer service and solid price. I have recommended Dennis Anderson to my friends and family and I will be back again.

We had a great buying experience with Thom Ayres . He was very nice, professional and patient with us. We were basically deciding between a Civic and an Accord. He was very informative and pleasant the entire time. He changed our normal negative perspective on buying a car. We got a very fair price on a 2013 civic and at the end of a long day, Thom pushed through the paperwork very quickly and efficiently.

This is the 3rd time I have brought a vehicle or a member of my family from CHeckered Flag. On each occasion I made it a point to only work with Carl. He is a guy who gives you his best and tries to take all the hassle out of car buying. Thanks Carl for being passionate about what you do.

I am a regular customer of Checkered Flag Honda and Toyota. I have to say the staff just gets better and better at what they do. Yesterday I traded in a pick up truck and purchased a 2014 honda civic. Mr. Renwick Jones, the salesperson that assisted during the whole process was very professional and pleasant to work with. I did not feel pressured and felt that I really had a good deal on my trade in and the purchase of the honda civic. After dealing with checkered flag, all the other dealerships just cannot compare to the quality of service you could always expect from checkered flag staff. I also want to thank Mr. Bo Wang and the sales manager for making the whole experience very satisfying. Thanks guys.

We purchased a 2014 CRV from Checkered Flag. Our sales person Heather Flora was professional, friendly and extremely helpful. We could not have asked for an easier purchase. Heather and Bo Wang in finance were a pleasure to work with. We will be returning to Checkered Flag for our future auto purchases. We could not be happier with the entire process.Steve W

Within the first 12 hours of purchasing my used car, the check engine light came on. As you can imagine, we were pretty upset. The service department took my car as soon as I brought it back and did more than necessary to make sure my car was perfect, going so far as to send my car to a competitors Ford dealership so specialized Ford mechanics could make sure the car was in perfect working order. Checkered Flag then covered the $100 deductible for my warrantee, paid all of the expenses for repair regardless if it was covered under my warranty, and gave me a free rental to use while it was being serviced. I might have been upset at the beginning, but the time, effort and ability to take care of the problem won me over. I know I wouldn't get the same kind of service at other dealerships, and would easily recommend to other friends bad family members!

Stopped in to look at CRV's since I have been reading some great reviews about them. Out walks Rick Higgins and says welcome to Checkered Flag Honda, how can I help you. From that point on this was the smoothest, stress free auto buying experience in my life. No high pressure, answered every question with a smile. I can be difficult when dealing with sales people (my wife says), but I know what I want and I do not want a pushy sales person like you find at many dealerships. Rick and Checkered Flag Honda gave my wife and I the most stress free and enjoyable auto buying experience either of us had ever had, period. I would highly recommend Rick Higgins and Checkered Flag Honda. I will let you know about their Service Department when I start using them, I hope it is the same type of experience......lol

I can't say I have fond memories of past car-shopping experiences so every time I'm about to go down that road I dread the whole process and "mental torture"I expect to go through.Well, Checkered Flag Honda in Virginia Beach was a pleasant surprise. Anthony Nikade, the salesperson I was working with, made me feel comfortable. He was very personable, helpful, and knowledgeable.His main focus was helping me find what I was looking for and nothing else. No pressure of any kind either before or after the sale. Brandon Robbins, the sales manager, was equally personable and helpful. He worked with me throughout the entire process with open cards and we agreed on a price I was extremely happy with.Judging by this experience, I think I have found my dealership for life.Stefan S.

We purchased our 2010 CRV in July of last year and have really enjoyed the car. We started having a problem with the car not starting due to, what seemed like, a dead battery. After we jumped it it would run fine for up to a couple of months without any other issues. In April of 2014 there were 3 times that this problem occurred before the 15th of the month. I contacted the service department and was able to bring the car right in and drop it off. I didn't need it back right away and I wanted to make sure it was not rushed. I got a call from Tina the next day and she indicated that the technician had determined that the battery had a dead cell in it. She actually had the tech standing right there and I was able to speak with him. (sorry, I don't remember his name) I disagreed with his diagnosis because of the extreme length of time between incidents. He was very professional in his explanation and did not talk to me like I was "just another mistrusting customer". I told Tina to go ahead and install the new battery and that I would be there to pick up the car in a couple of hours. When I arrived, I was checked out by David, again professional. It was then that I found out the amount was less than I had been told it was going to be by Tina. That had never happened before at any other dealership. I thanked them for their time and the smaller than expected bill and went outside to give my wife the keys and leave. That's when I discovered that they had washed the car...........it had rained all morning and they were calling for more......soon.........they washed it anyway. I left the dealership happy and satisfied that I had made the right choice in buying my car from Checkered Flag.

Paul Sudo, sales associate, provided my wife and I with a great purchase experience. He asked us many questions and quickly matched us up to the perfect car. From the time we walked on the lot until the time we left we were treated very well in every aspect. Two days earlier we had a bad experience with Priority honda and almost walked away from honda products due to that bad experience. I know realize that not all Honda dealerships are the same. Checkered Flag is the place to shop for new cars in Hampton Roads, VA.

I recently purchased a 2014 Honda Accord EX-L V6 Touring from Checkered Flag Honda in Virginia Beach, VA. It was an absolute pleasurable auto buying experience. Not only did they provide me with the lowest purchase price, but me and my wife were also professionally greeted by General Manager, Robert Chen and sales person, Mr. Mungaithi. Mr. Mungaithi was very knowledgeable and thoroughly covered all the features of our new Accord. He made our car buying experience extremely enjoyable and was one of the top reasons for our purchase at Checkered Flag Honda. Exceptional customer service and fair pricing, backed by Honda's reputation for cutting edge technology, exterior and interior design, and solid reliablity!! Thank you Robert Chen and Benjamin Mungaithi. We are so happy with our new Honda Accord!!!!!

I live in NY right now and came back to Virginia Beach just to see Carl. The entire staff at Checkered flag is very helpful, friendly and very eager to do whatever it takes to make sure I am satisfied. I highly recommend Checkered Flag Honda, Honda cars and Carl for anyone looking to purchase a car. Thank You

We were pleasantly surprised with the sales process. Working with Mr. Al Flores was a delight. He was very personable, knowledgeable, and went the extra mile to ensure we were satisfied with our purchase. I would surmise that he must be one if not THE number one salesman at the dealership. We look forward to a long relationship both with Mr. Flores and Checkered Flag Honda. In our opinion, Mr. Flores is a real asset and Checkered Flag is fortunate to have him as an employee.

Al was great!I had just came from a rival dealer about to close on a deal, until the Salesperson used profanity at me!I came to Checkered Flag Honda and met with Al, who was extremely friendly and helpful. He had called me up just recently to see how I like my vehicle. I could see me purchasing from him again when looking for a new car, I even recommended him to some friends who would also be interested soon in purchasing a new car. Myself being a salesperson, I know how it is to want to close on a deal, and I never felt the pressure from Al, who explained everything in full detail without being overbearing, he was patient, kind, informative and most of all NOT PUSHY. Thanks to Al, I feel totally secure in my purchase and I look forward to future dealings with him.

Carl, was very helpful and friendly. He knew everything I asked him or quickly found the answer. Honestly if it wasn't for him personally I wouldn't have bought a car. He gave me enough space to comfortably and willingly pursue my purchase. I almost signed twice somewhere else, honestly the deal wasn't even as good, but Carl definitely sold me. :) will recommend all to him!

Al Flores at Checkered Flag Honda is the best! He is knowledgeable, courteous, and genuinely cares about his customers. I would refer anyone to him! He put my other dealership experience to shame... if you know anyone in the market for a vehicle, please refer them to AL FLORES AT CHECKERED FLAG HONDA IN NORFOLK.PURCHASE EXPERIENCE:I had a 5pm appointment at a different Honda dealership in the area where I fully intended to purchase a vehicle. I had a check from my bank with 1.79% interest... but their lack of knowledge and professionalism was so bad that they convinced me not to buy a car from them.We arrived at the Checkered Flag dealership in Norfolk VA around 8pm just to take a quick look after wasting two and a half hours at another Honda dealership down the street I was pretty much over vehicle shopping for the day, but figured since we were in the area I would stop and look. Al Flores was standing outside when we arrived with a smile on his face. He greeted us immediately and asked how he could help us. I had been told to ask for Chad, so Al invited us in and offered us some Starbucks coffee while we waited...always a nice touch. Less than 2 minutes later, Al came back out and introduced us to Chad one of the Sales Managers. Chad was pleasant and told us that Al would be talking care of us and to let us know if we needed anything. Al immediately reassured me that he would take great care of me and started asking what vehicle I was interested in, make, color, etc. Al's demeanor is warm and friendly and he genuinely seemed like a nice guy. He even made us laugh which helped relieve my irritation from the other dealership.I was debating between a 2013 Honda Accord EX up to the EXL with navigation. Al checked his inventory and we stepped outside. The third car over on the lot was my top of the line pick... 2013 Accord EXL with navigation. Al opened the car and started explaining the features. The car was beautiful (besides the bird poop on the front) everything about it was the car I wanted. Al was able to answer ALL questions about the vehicle including questions that the salesperson from the last dealership was not able to answer. Once we had looked over the vehicle he asked if I wanted to take it for a test drive. I was hesitant because I was still irritated from my other experience and had made up my mind to wait another week to buy a vehicle but I agreed to test drive it because Al was so pleasant. We got on the road and Al continued to make us laugh, explain features of the vehicle and support my initial thought that he seemed to be a genuinely nice guy. Once we made it back to the dealership he asked if we wanted to look at some other vehicles or if that was the car for me. Again, that was my top pick, color and all so I said.... that's the car for me, if the price is right! We did some negotiating and came up with a more than fair price on the vehicle. Chad the manager of course was involved in that process and his service too was top notch (and the fact that he's a fellow ODU grad doesn't hurt). I am more than confident I got a great deal on my new car, and just as important as the price, Al's service is an experience I will never forget. Throughout the entire Sales process Al was funny, courteous, persuasive but not pushy, and knowledgeable about the vehicle. THE LITTLE THINGS MAKE THE DIFFERENCE! Once we settled on price, and spent another 45 minutes finalizing paperwork, warranty and financing, it was late. We were all tired, but when we stepped out of the finance office around 10:45pm there was Al...standing like a knight in shining armor! Now yes, that is his job, but he had a smile on his face, not once did he complain, and little did I know he wasn't finished yet! He walked me to my trade in vehicle to help me empty it out. Then we went to my new car where he set my seat memory for me and showed me the overall functions of the vehicle again. He asked if we had any questions. I said no because I was tired and ready to get home...by this time its 11pm on a Thursday night. My father asked about how to change the Navigation settings, etc. Al was able to update the navigation for me, and he still wanted to make sure we didn't have any other questions because he genuinely cares about his customers. I was bringing the car back in a couple days to be detailed since it was so late at night. It was time for me to leave and I was overjoyed with the entire experience with purchasing my new vehicle. Al told me to hang on just another minute and went inside. When he came back out, he had a napkin which he used to get the bird poop off the car. He said he didn't want me riding around with it. Now imagine that... 11pm on a Thursday night (dealership closed at 9pm), the car is sold and getting detailed in a couple days, and this man just cleaned bird poop off for me. That is not just a sales person... he is a master of customer service too! I could not have asked for more. I was blow away by Al Flores!When I brought my car back for my detailing appointment, there was Al. Now I'm thinking does this man ever sleep?! He again asked me if I needed anything, how I liked the car, etc. Overall he wanted to make sure I was satisfied with my purchase. He made sure I received a rental car and once my car was finished and I went to pick it up that evening, there was Al! I swear he is everywhere! He came and looked over the car with me and I noticed a small spot where a sticker had been and there was a faint amount of glue still left on the glass. Al went inside, and yet again, he cleaned my car off. He literally treated my car as if it was his own. Overall this car buying experience was so much more than I could have asked for. Checkered Flag is doing something right with the selection of their sales staff! THANK YOU AL FLORES for being an exceptional person all the way around! I will refer everyone I know and I can only hope to do business with you again!

I had a great buying experience with Paul. He couldn't have been nicer. We were deciding between a Civic and an Accord. He was informative and pleasant the entire time, and completely changed my negative perspective on buying a car. We got a fair price and they stayed past closing so that we could finish the paperwork and drive home in our Accord.

For a top quality car buying experience, go to Checkered Flag Honda. After a frustrating and terrible experience at a different dealership, my wife and I were dreading going car shopping again despite the many positive reviews we read about Checkered Flag. As soon as we pulled into the lot, a salesman was coming towards our car already. I thought to myself, "Oh no, here we go again." But I couldn't have been more wrong. The salesman, Paul Sudo, could not have been more professional. He provided us with a thorough walkthrough of the CR-V models, and answered every question completely and without hesitation. He did not once pressure us to buy or try to sell us on extra services or features we did not need. The other folks, including the finance guy, were also very helpful and not pushy whatsoever. All in all it was a fantastic experience, and we are very happy with our purchase.

I would highly recommend going in to see Eric Rogers if you are in the market for a new Honda. We didn't enjoy the car shopping experience when going to other dealers and the games they tried to play with the pricing. From the internet sales person Dionne, to our salesman Eric and the sales manager Brandon, everyone at the dealer was straight forward and gave pricing that beat the dealer down the street without all the hassle and BS. If your going to buy a Honda in Hampton roads you'll be making a mistake not going to Checkered Flag.

I have worked with Dennis Anderson for the past few years. I have purchased two automobiles from him in addition to bringing my daughter in to buy two vehicles from him. He is efficient, courteous, and fully understands how to treat a customer. I would not purchase from any other dealer or any other salesman. He is very aware of the business and goes out of his way to ensure all needs are addressed. He is one in a million. I am also very pleased with Honda service. My service representative, Terry Ruffin is outstanding. Doing business with him always leaves one feeling that their needs have been of the utmost importance.I would not buy a car or go anywhere else for service other than Checkered Flag Honda.

As I have never bought a new car before, I was a little apprehensive about the whole experience. Mr Ayres was very knowledgeable and helped me decide what I wanted. He was friendly, courteous and patient about answering all of my questions,and even stayed after closing to complete the sale. As a result I feel like I got a great car at a reasonable price and came away feeling good about the whole thing. Thank you Mr. Ayres and the whole Checkered Flag team!

Dennis and the entire Checkered Flag team exceeded my expectations and I was in and out in just under 2 hours and I am so pleased with the the way the entire transaction was handles. Checkered Flag will get my referrals when anyone asks me about my car and I will offer the referral when I know someone is looking for a new car. I cannot say enough about the excellent experience from the time I walked in the door until the time I drove home with my new CRV. The dealership even had me so impressed that when I brought the extra key in for the car I traded, I brought treats for the Dennis, Kristy (spelling?) and Brandon!!! I am IMPRESSED!!!!

Tom was a huge help in getting me the New Honda Ciic Si that I was looking for. If I knew anyone looking for a new or used car, I would definitely recommend them to talk to Tom first. I'm thrilled with how everything turned out. Thanks Tom!!

We had a great experience with Paul Sudo in the Honda sales group. He is very curteous and knowledgeable about the latest features and technology in the new cars. He was easy to work with and was able to work around our schedule during a busy weekend to complete the buying process. We highly recommend Paul to others interested in purchasing a new car.

The service at Checkered Flag Honda was amazing. Nathan worked with me until I found the car I fell in love with and helped me every step of the way. Everyone that I encountered were very friendly and made me feel very comfortable. I would definitely recommend that you visit Nathan or anyone at Checkered Flag Honda.

This was my second time purchasing a new vehicle and my second time around dealing with Thomas Ayres and the Checkered Flag Honda dealership was by far the best - so far. I would reccommend this dealership to anyone looking to purchase a new Honda. Upon setting foot on the dealership and meeting Thomas, it was clear that he was new and I was determined to get what I wanted, Thomas was very accomadating, courteous, professional and patient with me, which was very important to me. I appreciate his help, friendliness and he was very good at following up with me, before and after I made my purchase.

I bought my very first car from Checkered Flag. I worked with Mr. Flick, who was the general manager and Bo Wang, who was our salesman. Both were very friendly and professional. They made my experience painless and enjoyable! They also gave me a great price for the car. I would recommend them to a friend.

I went to the tent sale at Oceana Naval base and bought a 2010 Honda CRV. We were given the keys to take for a test drive. It was a beautiful day and so we had the windows down, my husband was checking all the extras in the vehicle (radio, sunroof, ac, heat, etc.). All was well. We got back to their site and we still wanted to look around since the car I had found online at their website was what I had my heart set on. We were offered to carry around the keys with me so that it couldn't be sold from under my feet. I did find another CRV like the one that I had my heart set on at Priority but I went back to the Checkered Flag site and made my offer & told about the other offers given to me by Priority. The price of the car I bought was more than the one at Priority even though that one had more bells and whistles. What sold me on this car was the friendliness of the salesman and his salesmanager Robert Chen. Once everything was finalized and we were on our way home, the weather had turned cold and we road home with the windows closed. When the car warmed up and I reached a speed of 45 mph, I started hearing a noise much like the bass on a radio booming. The noise bothered me and made my ears hurt. My husband had a hard time hearing it but eventually heard it as well and we began to look for the problem the next day. When we couldn't fix the problem, I called Carl and told him I wanted to bring the car back (thinking I had 3 days to cancel my contract..which I later learned that wasn't the case with cars). He told me to bring the car back in on Monday since they were still at the tent sale and they would take care of the problem...they would make it right. So I took the car in on Monday and the mechanic looked over the car & couldn't duplicate the noise. I had to take him out on a drive to point out the noise to him. He had told me that it would be hard to pinpoint. After a while, my husband came back to the dealership and the mechanic came back out for another drive since he wasn't able to pickup the noise while he drove. Again, I pointed it out and we all determined it happened at the 45mph/1.5rpm range. As we were driving my husband mentioned that he thought it was coming from the exhaust. The mechanic then realized that it was the exhaust and said that he could not fix that. I went back into the office and was referred to Rich another salesmanager. He said that he would be willing to trade the car back in and give us the amount we bought the car for as credit towards another car. We agreed to return the next day to try out other cars when Carl was back in the office. There were only new CRV's on the lot at this time, so I test drove one of those and I loved it! There was no noise coming from this car and the price was very close to what I had paid for the used car. Carl and Rich made the process so easy. My problems we solved and I felt so good about the experience. My husband and I kept saying that they were so nice to work with....more so than the people we have dealt with at Priority with our other cars. I would definitely refer anyone to this dealership! Such wonderful people!! I don't think that another dealership would have been so nice and caring about trying to please me as these people did. I was really thinking that I was going to run into a real mess when taking the car back into them. Everyone was wonderful from the moment that I stepped into the service center to leaving with the new car. Ten stars from me!!!

The overall experience was great! Al Flores, our sales consultant, was very professional, friendly and knowledgeable throughout the entire process. The team was very accommodating and stayed late to see the whole deal all the way through for me. I would recommend this dealership for those in the market for a new Honda!

Paul looked for a car for me within my budget and just when I thought a car wasnt in my near future. Paul called me and told me he has the car i asked for in my range. He was wonderful and I would recommend Paul and the Checkered Flag Honda dealership to my family and friends!!! I will be buying my future cars from Paul going forward. I cant say enough nice things about Paul, he made me feel like family.This is a top rated and first class car dealership!!!Juanita CainVirginia

We researched cars for two months and everything pointed to Honda - reliability, safety, comfort and cost. The clincher was a recent review by Consumer Reports on the Civic - we had been looking seriously at the Accord. The CR article also stated the approximate costs of the Civic along with all the improvements made to the Civic over the previous year's model.We contacted three dealerships by email asking for best prices - we live on the Outer Banks with the nearest Honda dealership approximately 60 miles away so we wanted to eliminate as much travel time possible.Checkered Flag offered the best price for the Civic and told us all other costs involved. We took the trip to Norfolk - around 90 miles. We were ready to purchase the car if all costs quoted remained the same. We were greeted at the door by Al Flores and introduced to the Sales Manager Chad Frick. We were pleasantly surprised that all terms of the sale remained as quoted, there was no attempt to upsell or change what had been discussed by email. We were presented with the papers and an offer for our car as a trade-in that was quite generous. We signed and headed home from Checkered Flag impressed by the integrity and professionalism of everyone we met there. This was the best car-buying experience we have encountered in over 40 years of buying cars.

Customer service is great. If you have a question whenever you leave the question has been answered to the fullest and to your understanding.Every sales person has a smile and willing to help or answer a question even if you are not there to see that particular one,. Have always had a great repoire with Dennis Anderson and have found him to be understanding with what I am looking for.

My husband and I shopped around looking for a good deal and to not exceed our budget. Sadly, the first few dealerships were unprofessional and would basically laugh at us because our budget was unrealistic in their eyes with the 2 types of cars we were looking for. They just seemed very greedy. We almost felt it was impossible until we went to Checkered Flag Honda! We were instantly greeted with smiling faces and I just felt really good vibes from everyone. Carl was great and the GM, Mr. Robert Chen, was amazing!!!! For once I felt like we were customers that he really wanted to help and take care of. No dealership put in nearly a quarter of the effort Mr. Chen did for us...not only did he crunch numbers with all of our bills, but was able to be put us in a better financial situation with the purchase of 2 new vehicles. I was speechless and honestly did not believe him until i sat down in another room to crunch the numbers myself. He made our budget possible! Basically he was a magician! I couldn't contain myself to tell everyone to come to Checkered Flag Honda for their next vehicle! For once I felt comfortable leaving car dealership knowing that I made a 100% right decision going to Checkered Flag Honda! We love our new CR-V and civic! Lifetime customers! :D

Carl and all the staff made making our new Honda purchase as easy as possible. All car dealers could learn from the way they operate. Even though it was late in the day, our car was cleaned and ready, and the paperwork was done in record time. This was our second purchase here, but probably won't be our last. Kudos to one and all.

My buying experience was amazing because of the honesty and integrity of Checkered Flag! Benjamin Mungaithi was my sales associate. He made sure that I completely understood the buying process. Thus, he taught me A LOT! He was always kind, patient, and considerate. He made sure that I was comfortable as a customer as far as price and the specifics of what I was looking for in a vehicle. One of the things that I appreciated was the fact that Ben never attempted to deviate from what I wanted. He really worked hard to find a car that fit my needs financially, as well as the demands of mileage and style. Mike, who is the General Manager, made sure that I received an optimal warranty package for my car as well as the lowest interest for my vehicle. Way to go Checkered Flag! I needed a Toyota, a vehicle that has the one of the best reputations for longevity and because of you.....I'm riding with a total package! Finally....a company that's not trying to take you for all you've got!

This visit was my third time to purchase a vehicle from Checkered Flag Honda within the last six years. Every time I made a purchase Vernon was the associate that I dealt with and each time he was as professional as a professional can be. The pricing of the vehicles are the best that are out there and can't be beat hands down, they will work with customers to get them what they want, may it be new or used. The service department is very knowledgeable with all the vehicles that come into their shop and they (Honda) does not overcharge like some other folks do to their customers. You as a customer know when you leave the dealership that your car and questions about your vehicle were handled professionally. Vernon, has become an extension of my own family and as I told him before "when I do move out of the Hampton Roads area and need to purchase another Honda I will be coming to see him". These are just a few of the reasons why I would recommend Checkered Flag Honda to anyone interested in purchasing a vehicle.

This is my second time working with Dennis Anderson. He sold me my first car summer 2010 and I was very impressed with the service he provided me. When it was time for me to get a new car due, to unfortunate events, I made it my business to drive from NC to VA because I personally wanted to buy my next car from him. He is very helpful, professional, respectful, courteous, and understanding. A very outstanding car salesman!

I recently visited Checkered Flag to trade in my Ford Explorer. I haven't had many good experiences with car dealerships so I was already on edge walking through the door! When I entered the dealership I was greeted by Mr. Anderson who immediately welcomed me, I wanted a Honda Accord Sport in gray only and of course I didn't want to over pay for it. Mr. Anderson let me know that it wouldn't be a problem getting me what I wanted, even though they didn't have the color I wanted in stock. Long story short Mr. Joseph took great care of me with my financing, found me a lower rate then the one I already was pre approved for, stating " no worries" he knew EXACTLY what he was talking about. I will definitely purchase another car from them and will refer family and friends to them! I'm loving my new Accord! Thanks to everyone!

Stopped by dealership on a 'whim' to question trading 2012 Accord for 2013 CR-V. Met Al Flores in parking lot, explained what I wanted and Al walked me through the process and I bought a new CR-V. Al is one of the most personable and sincerely appreciative car salesmen I have ever dealt with. He listened to what I said, asked questions and helped me find the car of my choice. Once the deal was made, Al thoroughly explained and demonstrated all of the features of my new car. He followed up the next day with a phone call. His genuine concern for me, the customer, shows that he really cares and it is quite evident that he loves his job and the product he sells. I would recommend him to a friend who wanted to buy a Honda. His 'no pressure' attitude is impressive. No pressure and he sold me the car, imagine that! Others could learn a lot from him. Thanks Al!Helen Cook

The thing I love most about this dealership is that they will work with you for as long as it takes to satisfy you and your vehicle needs. They are very flexible with their pricing. This is the fourth vehicle my family has purchased from Checkered Flag and every time the experience seems to get better. My salesman Eric Rogers is the most considerate and professional salesman I ever ever met. The experience from in the door to out the door was very efficient and fast. When I advised Eric that I had to sell my car to Carmax, he said that they could provide me with transportation if needed. They offered to look at my vehicle and actually had given me more then Carmax which saved me time and money. If I had to recommend an honest dealership to purchase from I would recommend Checkered Flag. They know how to treat their customers. Thank you Checkered Flag!

It was definitely a great car buying experience. Al was very helpful explaining all the features of the Honda CRV that I was looking for. He was very patient which allowed me the time to think about the car. He also followed up with calls, but without the feeling of pressure. It was my pleasure to have him as the sale person.

This dealship was the best in the Tidewater area!!!!! I looked at cars for several months all over Virginia, after my mustang was totaled. I told Mr. Carl Dyson what I was looking for and my price range. He found me a car online in 24 hours, then drove me to where we found my new Dodge Avenger. The customer service was wonderful and I would recommend this dealership to every and anyone who is looking for a car. You will be pleased, I promise! Thank you so much for a wonderful experience!

During our visit to checkered Flag Honda we meet Mr. Dennis Anderson who came off as a very experienced sales consultant and was very professional in answering our questions about the vehicle we were interested in. He allowed us to test drive the vehicle and explained its features during the test drive. It really helped us make our mind up about leasing the car. We would recommend Mr. Anderson to any first time car buyer or anyone who is interested in leasing a car. Thank you for making it a pleasant experience.

I had an excellent experience at Checkered Flag Honda. Checkered Flag's website was top notch; it listed all the vehicles on the lot and full descriptions for each. My wife and I knew the model we wanted to purchase and fully intended to visit three or more dealerships to find the right price. That wasn't necessary because Bo Wang at Checkered Flag did such an amazing job helping us. Even though it was late and cold on the first day we showed up, he answered all our questions, wasn't pushy, and drove three vehicles into the maintenance bay for us to look at while we wrangled our 2-year-old and stayed warm inside. When we couldn't decide on a color, he let us take the one we thought we wanted overnight on a 24-hour test drive. Sure enough, we decided that was the exact one we wanted. I made an offer the next day and--even though it was lower than what most people were paying for the vehicle--Bo talked with the manager and the offer was approved in 5-10 minutes. It was Saturday, so the dealership was really busy and I had to wait 40 minutes to finish up with the finance department ... but that was okay because I had a chance to get my own paperwork in order and take advantage of the showroom's free gourmet coffee and tea. Overall a great car buying experience.

Customer Service is a hard thing to find these days... especially in the new car sales arena, but after our experience with Carl Dyson, and the Checkered Flag organization, I am glad we chose to buy our second honda from him (I bought an Accord from Checkered Flag in 1986, the year my daughter was born).Carl met us at the door and I told him I wanted to test drive a Pilot before doing anything else...so I could compare it to a new Explorer we thought we would be getting (We have a 2003 Eddie Bower Explorer, and thought we needed another SUV). After driving the Pilot... my wife started looking at the new Accord in the showroom, and Carl set us up to test drive that one also... His customer service, willingness to give us what we wanted, his personality and humor gave us a comfort level that we were dealing with someone that cared about what we wanted. We came back the next day, picked one out and Carl met with us both and showed us some of the bells and whistles of our new technomobile... He also offered to meet with us this week to continue the training....As a people person, had we not met up with Carl, we can't say the basic New Car Saleman would of closed the deal for us.We look forward to a long relationship with Carl and Checkered Flag Honda!Steve and Shelly Cohen

There are two dealers locally for Honda; Hall and Checkered Flag. I used to go to Hall because it was somewhat closer. I do nearly all of my own service too. When I shopped parts, I would generally go with Checkered Flag. They were often cheaper and the online lookup parts illustrations are great for my needs. I decided to take my Accord coupe in for a state inspection and to have an intermittent SRS light looked at. I spoke with Jim Sauceda, who let me know up front about the cost for looking at an intermittent problem and any possible outcomes. I really appreciated this because as I said, I do my own service and hate surprises. The inspection and diagnosis came back pretty much like Jim and I thought it would. Terry Ruffin (my assigned advisor) got the parts (seat belt buckles bad, both seats) on order and would call when they came in to set up an appointment. Since they knew I was staying, they had the car done in a few hours which is very considerate.The followup appointment was scheduled and I also had them do a 4 wheel alignment. This was a drop off appointment. This went very well and Terry (re)confirmed the codes in the computer for the latches being bad; very thorough.One of the recommended services (from the initial inspection) was to change out the power steering fluid which I decided to do myself. Your parts guys are great and told me how much I'd need to do the job.While I was there, I spoke with Carl Dyson in sales to see if they had any 6 speed V6 Accord Coupes on the lot. Carl said that one had just come in and went all the way in the back to "dig it out" of inventory (it's not a popular mpodel choice!). He took the time to show me everything on the new Accords and we test drove it. Carl was very helpful and WASN'T pushy!When I went to pick up my vehicle later that day, imagine my surprise when I saw that not only was the work done, but they had taken the time to wash my car and thoroughly clean the interior! Not just halfway either, it was a very nice job!Needles to say, I won't be taking my business to Hall Honda in the future; not because they do a bad job or anything, but because your folks (service, parts, and sales) all do such a great job.Keep up the good work! It's rare these days!-Joe Mercer

I would definately recommend this dealership to anyone. I received a flyer in the mail because I had recently filed a Chapter 7 Bankruptcy asking me to come into the dealearship. I was a bit leary at first because it was one of those you have been pre-qualilified for a loan and we can get you approved type deals. So I thought about it for a little while and decided to give the person on the flyer a call. This was the General Manager Robert Chen. I gave him a call at 9:33am on December 28, I gave him the Authorization Code off the letter that he had sent out to me and some more of the pertinent information to get you started with the purchase process. He said Ms. Sharpe it is going t take me a couple of hours but I will get back with you to let ypu know what we can do for you. By 1:30pm that same day Mr. Chen called me back and told me that I was approved for a vehicle and to come in with NO MONEY DOWN!!! I was estatic! I told him that I would be right over. When I got there I was greeted by a very nice receptionist and shortly after Mr. Chen came over and stated that he had already picked out a choice for me. Then he introduced me to Paul Sudo my Sales Representative. Everyone was very friendly and I didn't wait long at all to speak with anyone. As a matter of fact I have never been into a dealership where all of the Sales Reps either acknowledge you and ask you how you are doing or let you know that someone will be working with you very shortly. My entire experience was wonderful. Paul went over everything detail by detail and even sat down and explained my credit report to me and my husband. Mark Joseph the Finance Manager was very thorough with the paperwork. He explained all the details so that I could understand because I had never made a major car purchase before. After the deal was done my Sales Rep Paul Sudo walked me out to my new car and went over every feature that the vehicle had before I left the car lot. He even showed me how to adjust my seat so that it would be comfortable. He has sent several emails making sure that I'm satisfied with my purchase and whenever I call with any questions he is very willing to answer. My overall experience with Honda was a great one and I would tell anyone to make a purchase from Checkered Flag Honda!!!! As a matter of fact to go to someone else to make a purchase would be absolutely ludicrous! I can almost guarantee that you will not be treated with the friendliness and thoroughness that Checkered Flag Honda provided!!! Happy Car hunting and remember it you want to have an experience that you will never forget go to Checkered Flag Honda!!

Fantastic buying experience! We are the proud owners of a new 2012 Honda Pilot. It was a pleasure to work with Bo Wang. He is by far the friendliest sales person we have ever met. We visited the dealership a few different times over the last 6 months. Bo always took the time to answer our questions and never pressured us. Bo always greets us with a smile and offers plenty of time to test drive. Checkered Flag Honda has a different "feel" than any other dealership. During our search we visited several other dealerships, including Charles Barker, Hall, and Nissan of Chesapeake to name a few. All Hall dealerships want you to sit down first, answer 20 questions, meet 2 "managers", and ask you multiple times if you are buying the car/truck "today"....all this BEFORE you have even test driven the vehicle! Nissan of Chesapeake actually wanted us to sit down and "work the numbers" before test driving. The atmosphere is totally different at Checkered Flag Honda. It starts from the moment you pull into the dealership. You never feel like you are being pounced on in the parking lot. When you go inside, the tables you sit down at are in the main lobby but are semi-private. You will not be shoved in a small office. The dealersip has a very open and non-threatening feeling. We never met the sales managers that we negotiated price with, at first this seemed a little strange, but overall I think it made the negotiation process feel less stressful. We purchased our new vehicle on New Years Eve, and when the bank gave us the wrong paperwork, both Bo and Mark were very patient while we made calls back to the bank and they even offered us the opportunity to take possession of the Pilot while the bank made the corrections if we wanted. We are hopeful, once the time comes, that our experience with the "service" side of the house will be just as great. This is my second vehicle bought from the Checkered Flag family and certainly will not be our last :) We highly recommend Bo Wang and we will be sure to send some referrals his way!Sincerely,Jennifer & Chett Radford

Eric D. Rogers was patient and knowledgeable. I was not sure what I wanted to do when I first waked into Checkered Flag Honda. Eric was able to explain all the options and the benefits to each of them without selling them. I wanted something with great gas mileage that was in my budget and now I am the happy owner of new Honda Accord!

We went to 2 other Honda dealers before we went to Checkered Flag. We met Benjamin as soon as we got there. We told him what what we were looking for and he delivered. He also explained to us that buying a car should be easy and fun. He delivered on that also. And of course the price was right!! Checkered Flag Honda and Benjamin are most deserving of our business!! We love our 2013 Honda Pilot!

I was referred to Al by another client of his. Very glad I had the referral, Al was great to work with and made this process easy and painless. Al worked wih my wife to get her acclimated to her new van that has many features that she was not accustom to. Thank you Al and Checkered Flag!

We have been dealing with Checkered Flag since 1994 and have always had a pretty good experience. This is our fourth vehicle we have purchased from Checkered Flag/Toyota and Honda. When we decided we were ready to purchase a new car we had decided we wanted a CRV. We met Benjamin Mung'aithi on Sunday, Dec. 16 just to see if the 2013's were in. We went back on Tuesday, Dec. 18 to test drive a CRV to be sure it was what we wanted. I felt like we received a decent offer (hopefully) so we made the purchase. Mr. Mungaithi was very personable and we enjoyed dealing with him.

This was the most pleasurable car-buying experience I have had in 45 years! I never felt pressured, and could tell that Marc's only concern was helping me in any way he could. Robert made the process so quick, and the results were fabulous - I have a new Civic that will be a constant reminder of the fact that there are still people out there interested in your needs rather than their ratings! Thanks, Checkered Flag, Marc and Robert.

This is the second vehicle that we have purchased from Checkered Flag Honda in Va Beach. Brad was our salesman in our first purchase and we are pleased to recommend him to anyone interested in purchasing a car. I have purchased many cars through the years and I must say that my experience with this dealership and salesman has been among the most pleasant purchases.

I am happy with my 2013 Honda CRV with navigation but will need further assistance in operating it. I haven't purchased a car since 2002 so the technical apsects of this vehicle are challenging. It cannot all be done when you purchase the vehicle. I learned the basics. I look forward to working with Bradley or a customer service representative. Classes on instruction might be nice for people like myself. The manual is there but I still need help.

I bought my car on the last day of the month, which can be a pushy time for car salesmen trying to meet their quota. I went shopping at other places (that I won't name) and nothing beat Checkered Flag Honda. The minute we pulled up we knew this would be different than the other dealerships. Randy was so great - he answered all our questions and told adorable stories. I would recommend him to anyone, he's like shopping with your cool funny uncle! The sales manager Chad was super helpful and friendly, and so was the finance person, Rachel. It was the easiest buying experience of my life; I didn't feel rushed or hassled. I absolutely love my car and wouldn't have bought anywhere else

I came to Checkered Flag Honda to purchase a used Honda Pilot. I found one on line and knew pretty much which one I was going to purchase. Bo was excellent in showing me the vehicle I was interested in, but also a brand new Cr-V since I could not make up my mind. After test driving the Honda Pilot and the Honda Cr-V, I finally settled on the Pilot. I completed the sale on a Wednesday and came back the following Saturday to get the vehicle. Once I took possession of the vehicle I discovered that the vehicle had not even been cleaned from the previous owners. There were sticky stains on the console and even stains on the header. It appeared no one even bothered to do a cursory wipe. I also discovered that one of the keys does not even work for the remote unlocking feature. I thought the salesman was great and would recommend him, but I think next time, I will be more assertive on the standard I expect for purchasing a vehicle from Checkered Flag.

We bought our new CR-V from Checkered Flag solely because of Paul Sudo. From past dealings with him, we knew he would treat us fairly and make the experience as pleasant as possible. This time, he exceeded our expectations. He didn't just wow us with the car's features as you might expect from a salesman, but he actually taught us about the car. He even took care of most of the paperwork before we arrived to purchase the vehicle, so that we didn't have to waste any time.

We came into Checkered Flag with the hopes of finding the car we wanted for a price we could afford. Brad was the first salesman we met and he was fantastic! He was patient, friendly and informative with all the facts we needed to know. He, along with Mr. Frick, explored every avenue possible to ensure we could drive off the lot with our new Pilot. Neither was pushy or rude. Brad did a fabulous job explaining all the functions and operations of the car. He found us a color we loved for a price we were satisfied with! We had been to a competitors lot and felt rushed and pressured. Noe of that here! So happy we decided to go to Checkered Flag! You guys have a customer for life! We will also recommend Brad to all our friends!

Carl was very friendly and helpful. After I totaled my car I wasn't sure what I wanted to get to replace it, but I knew I wanted another honda. So I came to checkered flag honda. Carl worked with me until I found one I liked and within my budget. He didnt try to push me into something to just get a sale, like a lot of salesmen do at other lots. I will definitely send friend and family to checkered flag and recommend carl!

Very patient.We were buying our first brand new car & Al even drove out to the base to pick my daughter up so she could get to the dealership & get all the paperwork signed. He also sat in the vehicle with her, making sure she knew what buttons did what function before he let her drive away.

Ben is one of the best car salesman I've ever had the pleasure of meeting. He was friendly , kind and professional. What makes him incredibly unique is his sincere approach towards identifying with his customers. He really listened and was attentive to my personal needs. Initially, I came to Checkered Flag to buy an older car -- nothing earlier than a 2010 model. Ben showed me a few models in the category I had requested, but had also understood my needs enough to suggest the added value I would acquire by purchasing a 2012 model, with minimal increase on expense. Ben was very thorough regarding his technicial knowledge and features on any of the models in which I had inquired. He even showed me additional features on my Honda Ridgline, which after owning for last four years, I had not been aware of. He taught me how to bring my windows down and raise them using the key remote. He even took the time to show my wife how to use this feature until she understood it. This type of character trait -- the attention to the little things in people's lives -- is what distinguishes Ben from the ranks. Lastly, after assisting us in record time with the purchase of our 2012 Honda Accord Special Addition, Ben also made sure that our insurance company properly handled the transition of adding our new vehicle to our policy. Ben stayed on the phone with our insurance representative until he had confirmed that the VIN number and other details were correctly conveyed. Ben's attention to personal service has that sense of additional refinement you just don't see anywhere else today! My overall experience with Checkered Flag was superb, thanks to Ben! My recent visit to Checkered Flag has to be the most painless process I have ever experienced regarding the purchase of a new or used vehicle! Ben is a credit to your company. Whatever you are paying this man, it's not enough! I'm sure he is one of the key reasons people keep coming back to Checkered Flag. I know I'll be back to make my next purchase!

I was very satisfied with my car salesman, Brad Comess. He went above and beyond his job. I was trading in several motorcycles and he personally got the cycles to where they were supposed to go as I did not have a clue as to how to handle that situation. I test drove quite a few hondas and was more comfortable with the CR-V than anything else and was hoping it would be big enough for 3 different size car seats. I even put all three in but didn't buckle them so my fault for not thoroughly checking. Had to purchase a smaller booster seat and have her sit in the middle instead but even with the minor glitch it all has worked out and I love my new CR-V. I wouldn't trade it for anything else. Brad is a great salesman, he listens to what you are saying in what kind of vehicle you are wanting and also pays attention to what makes you feel the most comfortable driving. I would definitely recommend him to anyone that is looking for a new car. I had a great experience buying a new car for the very first time being on my own.Thank you,Cynthia Tatem

Vernon is a true Salesman with his customer being the top priority. I spent two weeks shopping for a vehicle, and explored other brands along with other HONDA dealers. Easily, because of Vernon, Checkered Flag now has my business. I knew which vehicle and what color I wanted. I test drove the 2012 Civic LX at Hall Honda, and let me say their customer service DOES NOT EXIST. They, in turn, have lost my business forever. Charles Barker also called me and the internet sales staff could not answer a simple question, "where was the care built/assembled". My wife had to ask twice and try to explain that one. We never got the answer. I spoke with Vernon the previous week over the phone, but I had not settled on the make and model.Finally, after deciding it was the Honda Civic and I met such inadequate customer service from Hall Honda in getting the vehicle I wanted through them, I called Checkered Flag. When I asked to speak with a salesperson, Vernon answered. I asked him to locate the Pearl Blue Civic that was in the area and tell me what was on the vehicle. He offered to call back in one hour with the information. Vernon called back within the hour (something Hall could not do) and then he got the vehicle to the dealership for me to purchase the next day. Vernon delivered what he promised and I did not have to haggle or feel pressured in any way. I have always heard good things about Honda, and with Vernon Belford as your representative, my opinion, that first impression is on a firm footing.

My wife and I came into Checkered Flag knowing what we wanted to buy and that we wanted to buy the car that day. We explained to Paul Sudo, our sales representative, what our situation was and that we were in a rush so that we could make it back home to pick up our kids from school. Paul listened to us and did exactly as we asked. He did not try to sell us a more expensive model or accessories that we didn't need. Paul expedited our sale and we were on our way in record time. Very pleasant experience.

The rating was awarded because I was quite pleased that my questions were addressed in a professional and clear manner. Also, my sisters have purchased several cars (new and used) from this dealership and Mr. Anderson and both have been very pleased with service after the sale. I researched the price of the vehicle online from several sources and the price fell within the parameters of what I found online for a comparable model.

I came into Checkered Flag with some interest in the Honda, but I had three other autos in mind at the time: VW, Hyundai, and Toyota. Brad gave me a test ride in two Honda Accords, and showed me the Special Edition with leatherseats, lots of trunk space and a smooth ride. He let me take it for the day and I came back and was sold. He did not pressure me at all and I felt very comfortable working with him. He offered us a great deal with the best financing option (he showed me all the possible options) and I went for it. I am a happy Honda owner now and plan to drive this new car for at least 250,000 miles.Thanks to Brad we will be returning customers.

I was loathing having to go buy a new car but from start to finish the experience was hassle free. I was impressed with Jeff's knowledge of the car and appreciated his eagerness to make a fair deal. Not only did he get me the exact car I wanted but he got the price I needed. Also of note, Jeff noticed I was having trouble starting my car after the deal was made. He immediately came over to help. He jump started my car and gave advice on how to give it a permanent fix. He far above and beyond his job description. As a customer I felt valued and appreciated. Thanks very much for the awesome car buying experience. I'll be back!

We tested many cars over several days and he had them waiting for us. When it was time to buy, the staff took us through the paperwork quickly and efficiently with no surprises or headaches.I would definately return to Checkered Flag to seek Marc's assistance in the future and I highly recommend that you do as well!

Brad was helpful and gave honest opinions of the cars we were comparing. He was not afraid to tell us where Honda's product had deficiencies and this empowered our making an informed decision on a vehicle and its options. When my kids (young) were having a melt-down in the dealership because they were going to have to give up the blue car they loved, Brad managed to produce paper and crayons for them to draw pictures of it so they would remember it (as well as a coloring book) and he and the sales manager (Chad?) even went so far as to cut down some of the ceiling balloon decorations for my daughter to try and make her happy (and get her to stop screaming about not wanting a new car - it worked for a while, until they noticed there weren't any blue balloons and that reminded them of the blue car). Chad (?) even both tried to talk to the kids about his kids (only slightly younger than mine) with picture of their new white car and got out some Oct kids promotion kits a couple days early for them (car dealer version of kida menus with crayons). Brad had a talk with my son about not crying and setting an example for his little sister while I was in closing with the finance girl - that actually seemed to help a bit.On a more serious note, in all the confusion, I never quite realised that the car didn't have roof racks standard (I mean who makes an SUV without roof racks). So when I finally got a good look at te car SAT morn and noticed the issue, Brad has managed to get us a discount at getting them installed.My wife will probablyget that done when she picks up the cargo cover and gets brad to set the garage door and blue tooth functions for her phone sometime this week - she wasn't with me at the time and with the kids as they were, Brad was happy to show me what I needed to get out of there with her coming back later for extra training on the advanced settings.Had some interesting conversations while at the dealership - the other sales manager with whom we'd met had just been to Disney where we were headed in the middle of the buying process, and one of the finance girls had actually lived in our house before us. Also I have to note that the dealership played good music.An all around good experience.

Brad was exactly what I wanted in a dealer. He asked me what I wanted and he showed me exactly what was on the lot that matched what I told him. He listed more than he talked. He took care of everything I could ask for. We negotiated on a price for my trade and he was both courteous and efficent in his manner, something I greatly appreciated. I enjoyed the experience buying my Honda with him and would recommend both Brad and Checkerd Flag Honda to anyone shopping for a vehicle.

I was a bit overwhelmed by the car buying experience. I spoke with the manager of the dealership, was greeted by the sales manager, and immediately guided through a great experience by working with Al. I told him what I didn't want. I initially was not considering a Honda at all, but the first car we looked at fit me completely. Since then, I love the comfort, the gas mileage, the features, and the peace of mind that I have a great car that is reputable and when it is time for servicing, I'll have the same quality experience without haggling. Thanks Rob, Chad, Al and the entire team at Checkered Flag Honda!

I was very impressed with the professionalism of the entire staff and especially Bo Wang. Purchasing my third Honda (CR-V) that I have ever owned from Checkered Flag Honda was a very positive experience and I always felt that I was not having to play games with negotiating the vehicle trim level or price. I was able to use my USAA program and everything went smoothly.I will suggest that my friends and family use Checkered Flag when purchasing their next vehicle.

On September 15, 2012 my father and I went out to make my first big car purchase. We went to six different dealerships along virginia beach blvd. Each dealership seemed to be filled with pushy sales people just trying to make a quick sale and move onto the next customer. When we arrived at Checkered Flag Honda we were greeted in a very friendly yet professional manner by Bo Wang. He led us inside and we discussed the type of car we were looking for. Bo's vast knowledge led us to make the perfect decision in a new 2012 Honda Civic. The atmosphere at Checkered Flag Honda was unlike any of the other dealerships we visited. We felt welcomed and like we were making the perfect decision because Bo Wang and Chad Frick took the time to go over any questions we had making us feel completely at ease. I have already fallen in love with my new car and would recommend Checkered Flag Honda to everyone I know! It feels great knowing that I made the perfect decision, not only in the car I chose, but also the dealership and salesman we worked with! I could not have had a better experience buying my first car, at Checkered Flag Honda the day was everything I had hoped it would be!

I had a really good experience at Checkered Flag Honda. Al Flores was really friendly, prompt, on-time and showed me everything that was asked by me. The best part was that I got a great price for my first car. If someone, that I know, wants to buy a car, I would definitely give Al's reference to them.

Al Flores was friendly, helpful. Gave us several options in our price range. No pressure. Knew the cars. We made a appointments to see him a couple of times, as we were undecided. He was always ready and waiting for us.

This is the second Honda I have bought from Checkered Flag in Norfolk, VA; and so I suppose I qualify as a loyal customer. Mr. Comess was an excellent salesman in handling all business details, and gave knowledgeable and pertinent answers to all my questions. He knows the products well, and seems very competent with the technology systems. I appreciate his offer to set up the navigation and sound systems for me also. I drove off the lot feeling very confident and pleased with my new Honda CR-Z. I would not hesitate to buy my next Honda from Mr. Comess in particular, and from Checkered Flag Honda. It was a pleasant experience with very little of the typical hassle and drawn-out process and lengthy paperwork involved in buying a car. I was given a reasonable deal as far as financing, and was very pleased with the attention, recommendations, and response time from Mr. Comess and the other personnel at Checkered Flag Honda. My highest commendations!!Thank you!

We went in thinking that we would be unable to make a deal. But after only a couple of hours we decided on a car, signed some paperwork, got the financial okay from Honda Financing and we were out! We didn't even test drive it! We have always had confidence in Honda and their workmanship.

Service was excellent. Any questions or concerns were taken care of immediately. Employees were polite, friendly, and very welcoming. We would definitely do business with this dealer again, and will recommend them to others.

I recently moved to Virginia; I had a great experience with my last Honda dealership. I checked the reviews on Checkered Flag before going in; they were mixed, but I hoped for the best. I was disappointed; I left the dealership flabbergasted by the whole experience. Since I just moved to Virginia, I needed a state inspection; I also mentioned that my check engine light was on, probably due to the gas cap I just wanted them to check on it and reset the indicator light. My last dealership just did $2K+ of scheduled maintenance on my car the month before, so I knew everything on the car was up-to-date. I waited for 2 hours before I heard anything about my car (I ended up waiting almost 3.5 hours total!) When they came to me, they proposed $2,500 worth of repairs. I was shocked! For my inspection, they pointed to a very, very small tear in my left windshield wiper and said it needed to be replaced to pass inspection the cost: $26 for a left windshield wiper! I felt taken hostage. They also charged me $120 for checking on my indicator light and telling me what I already suspected it was likely due to a loose gas cap. The total bill: $169. All for waiting 3.5 hours, getting 1 wiper blade replaced (which took almost an hour after I approved the repair!), and getting a sales pitch for $2500 more worth of repairs (some of which had just been done by another Honda dealership a month or so before!) It's a "soft" sales pitch where they "walk you through" areas where your car "failed" a "diagnostic" test. If you want to wait a long time, be sold repairs you don't need, and pay quadruple for basic parts like windshield wipers, then this is your place. As someone who is new to the Hampton Roads area and who is about to purchase a new Honda I will not be doing any more business with Checkered Flag Honda. I will gladly drive a little further for honest, reputable service. My final bill: $169. I told the representative how thoroughly disappointed I felt about my experience to his credit, he reduced the price to $99 (and an admission to the gross overcharge of the original price, in my opinion). I never have written an online review before, and I am not one to complain or be demanding. I just have never have been so disappointed by a business like I was today. Frankly, the whole experience took me completely off guard. I've had my car serviced at other Honda dealerships, and I have had great service and great experiences. I am a loyal Honda owner; and plan to keep buying Hondas based on my experience. I just plan to purchase my next Honda and have it serviced at another dealership. It cost me $99 to learn not to stop by for a state inspection or have my car serviced here; hopefully this review can save you the time and money.

Checkered Flag Honda has a customer for life, because of my first experience with the purchase of my 2004 Ford Mustang! The reason for my decision is Al Flores, he was totally in my corner, from the beginning of this process until the end. Al wanted to find the right car for me! Thank you Al! I will be sending friends and family your way, thank you again! Carolyn Jentoft

My experience buying my Honda Accord was Great. My sales persons was great. It was the easiest and quickest sale I have ever done. Even my wait time to sign the paperwork was less than 10 minutes and doing the paperwork didn't take much time either. Both my sales person (Al Flores) and Christie in finance were very knowledgeable which made the whole process a pleasant one.

This is the second car I have purchased from Checkered Flag Honda. Both have been easy and (relatively) painless purchases, made efficient and comfortable by your amazing sales staff. Eric Rogers helped me with this purchase and he was terrific! He made me feel comfortable and at ease at every turn. He patiently answered my questions, laughed at my jokes, and even brought the cars into the garage from the rain so I could transfer belongings from one to the other. He was terrific!

Brad was very knowledgable on the Pilot and answered most of my questions. He was also able to find the perfect car for my wife who was also looking for a new car. This was by far my best car buying experience and it was all due to Brad Comess.

Priced initially thousands below nearby dealers and started with a high trade in amount. I spent hours at another nearby Honda dealer to get the other dealers best price which was about two thousand more than what I started at with checkered flag. No hassle and didn't try all the gimmicks. I will definitely be back for another car.

Vernon Belford explained every step we went through with us and answered every question we asked to our satisfaction. He provided his direct cell number to facilitate our communication with him. Throughout our CRV purchase process, Vernon projected a warm and helpful personality. He took particular effort to point out CRV features that interested my wife. We took delivery of our CRV eleven days before we expected to. The added options were ordered and installed without delay and to our total satisfaction. This experience far exceeded that which occurred when we bought a Toyota Camrey LSE 4 dr sedan from Checkered Flag in 1997. The Camrey subsequently proved to be nothing but trouble.... tires, A/C, accelerator, cruise control.

This is my second purchase of a brand new vehicle from Checkered Flag Dealership, the other one was 2007 BMW X5 (Checkered Flag BMW) and this is my 6th purchase of a brand new vehicle. I really like the deal that I got with this purchase although I know I could get the same deal as far as price to other Honda dealerships, but with the satisfaction I got from my BMW experience made me stick to Checkered Flag. I was very pleased with my sales associate Benjamin Mung'aithi, the minute I walked at the dealership he game me a very special treatment and help me out throughout the process, he also spent a lot of time showing and teaching my daughter (who will be driving the car most of the time) everything about the car. I think he is very knowledgeable of the Civic. He also contacted me after the purchase thanking me and also offering his service if I needed help or question about the car which tells you that he really cares.If there is one thing though that i'm not really impressed with Checkered Flag Honda was this purchase does not include any incentives like free oil change, or any merchandise from Honda or Checkered Flag (except for that metal Checkered Flag key chain) because I remember from BMW they game me a gift certificate at their store, a delivered basket of goodies, a Checkered Flag BMW hat and in other dealerships, free oil change X number of times, free full tank gas for X number of times, a merchandise from manufacturer or dealership or sometimes they will throw a dealer installed accessories. But other than that I'm satisfied.

I had a great experience with Checkered Flag Honda due to the salesman James Rose. Mr. Rose displayed detailed knowledge about the car as he demonstrated brand loyalty by explaining the features of the new 2012 Honda Accord. His strong professionalism and great customer service made him a stand out over all of the salesmen at the Navy Federal Car Sale. He is truly an asset to your company. I will continuously recommend Checkered Flag Honda and Mr.James Rose to friends, family, co -worker and anyone willing to listen because of the great price of my 2012 Honda Accord and the consistently excellent customer service of Mr. James Rose.

When I walked into Checkered Flag Honda, it was with the intent of buying a new car. Mr. Miller was incredibly helpful and knowledgable in regards to the vehicles. He was also extremely patient in regards to me making a final decision on exactly which car I wanted (which was no small feat!)He answered all of my questions and when he wasn't sure of an answer, he asked (a trait for which I have the utmost repect.) I will definitely recommend Checkered Flag Honda to all of my friends.

I purchased a new 2012 Honda Civic from Checkered Flag- Honda and I LOVE my vehicle. Everyone was there was very welcoming and helpful. I originally came in driving a 2012 Sonic I was test driving from RK Chevrolet this made it more interesting for Chad Frick. Chad Frick answered all my questions and was very knowledgeable of the vehicle and company. Chad Frick made me reconsider buying my vehicle from RK. GREAT JOB CHAD!!! Bo Wang, very nice guy help me with all the paperwork and making sure the payments were in my price range. Chad Frick and Bo Wang also returned the Sonic to RK Chevrolet with pride. Robert Chen, General Manager was also a nice guy; he helped me tremendously by making it all possible. Mark Joseph was very knowledgeable and very nice. He was willing to explain in detail, how everything works when buying a vehicle new or used. He also gave me advice to improve my credit score. When I left Checkered Flag I was excited about the purchase and still am. I felt that I was doing business with friends and not just people that wanted to sell me a car. I got a great deal on my car and I am very satisfied with everything and how I was treated. I tell everyone about the great service I received and I will recommend Checkered Flag to anyone looking for awesome service and a great car.

A pleasure doing business with Eric at Checkered Flag.only problem I had was when I was leaving I asked the Parts Manager to make me a flat dumb key to keep in my wallet (just to open the doors), and he said he couldn't. Maybe he misunderstood what I wanted. I had no trouble getting one at another dealership.

I was referred to Checkered Flag Honda from a friend. When I walked through the door everyone who saw me greeted me in a way unlike other dealerships, they were very nice & didn't act like a bunch of vultures circling their prey. The employee that I was referred to had a family emergency so Paul Sudo assisted me. Paul made the entire transaction very smooth. He guided me to exactly what I was looking for without trying to push me into something more expensive. Paul clearly explained all of the safety features of the car (very important since my children will be riding in this vehicle). After a test-drive we got down to the business of financing & establishing the value of my trade-in. My trade-in appraised for exactly what my research suggested it should, no haggling required! Paul & Checkered Flag Honda have made the car-buying process stream-lined & smooth while maintaining a friendly atmosphere where you don't feel like a dollar sign. All said & done it took ~3 hours for my entire transaction, I felt this was amazing since it's taken an entire day or more at other dealerships. Thanks Paul! I'll definitely be back for my next vehicle!!!

I have been dealing with Checker Flag Honda since 2008. My sales associate was very good. He did not hassle and was very helpful and patient. But, services is where I have my issues. Customer services is horrible. When I walk in on numerous occasions they don't speak, and when you walk to the desk they're not quick to help you or at least tell you that an representative will be with you. They do not even acknowledge you and you can be standing while they take calls or on the computer or talking. And, when they finally get to you they recommend the highest price products. I have both two cars from Checker Flag Honda, but this will probably be the last time I deal with them mainly because of customer services. I can't see where it's a benefit to being a value Honda owner and not getting any special deals or getting your car service at Checker Flag Honda on Virginia Beach Blvd. For example, Priority Honda gives lifetime free oil changes as a promotion. I will do my research the next time I purchase a new car.

Vernon was a very good salesman. The dealer prep lacked a lot to be desired. They didn"t top off the fuel tank. After putting gas in the first time the car only got 17 mpg instead of 23 mpg. Very disappointed. Nice car, just wish they would have done what they were suppose to.

Everyone at the dealership is super friendly and treat you with the upmost kindness and like family. When i was lookig for to teadey car in, Vernon came highly recommended by the people who he associates with at work and I am very happy to have followed their recommendation.Vernon is very knowledgeable on all the cars available in the lot and other makes. He is very kind and patient with me and I did not feel pressure to buy the car and felt like he was helping me make the best choice and price for the car I needed, yet still want at the same time. He even took extra time making sure I know EVERYTHING that is included with the car once I bought it, which made me felt like I got a better deal. If anyone is looking to buy a car, I tremendously recommend Vernon Belford to be your salesman because he will take your best interest to heart and do it with a smile and Checkered Honda for the dealership.

I filled out a "quote request", onine, for the CR-V and received a call with in the hour. Then I set up a day to come see the car and test drive it. Mr. Bo Wang was my sales consultaant and had everything from the the test drive till when I traded in my previous car. He made the experience very friendly and didn't appear to be "fake" at all. I had previously been to two different car dealerships where one was smiling and laughing at stuff that wasn't supposed to be funny and had a very "fake" personality. The next dealership tried to make me pay $1,500 over the price off the internet and then when I showed them the price they changed it with even batting an eyelash. They also tried to give me a high percentage loan. So I walked away from there. My next stop was the Checkered Flag Honda where I did all my buisness and Mr. Bo Wang and he didn't try to swindle me at all. I wanted a buisness deal that was up front and didn't want a pressure to buy the car if I didn't want it. I recieved all that from Mr. Bo Wang. I highly recommend Mr. Bo Wang for his service, he took his time to explain everything, and I felt good about the decision in buying my new 2012 Honda CR-V from him.

I Love the car and thought Vernon, our salesman was up front, honest, straight forward, charismatic and trustworthy. The length of time it took to purchase the vehicle was a bit long. 4 hours. Also although I was told the car was detailed, it was dirty inside & out. That was a disappointment. Crumbs everywhere, a sticky ring where someone had a drink. No armor all put on dash. Pollen covering the rear of vehicle. Actually was very upsetting. I was told it would be washed and waxed. I know it was not. A car does not get covered with pollen within one hour of being washed. Still, I would recommend this Honda Fit, Checkered Flag and Vernon.Thank you for your time.

I have bought and traded cars with this dealer exclusively for about 15 years, as well as had my car(s) serviced there during that time. Today, I bought a new car with the help of Paul, who knew everything about how to make the transaction as painless as possible. His straightforward and forthright manner inspires trust and assurance that you are being treated fairly and above board down to the smallest detail. Especially as a female customer in the showroom, I was very appreciative of his attitude and understanding of my situation. Never once did I feel I was being talked down to, even though I was a "rookie" at shopping for a car by myself. EVERYONE I have encountered at this dealership obviously understands the concept of customer service, a missing quality in many other places where I might spend my money. I am a loyal Honda driver, and even though I have many options in the area for other dealerships I might patronize, I have no intention of ever doing so as long as Checkered Flag maintains its high standards and business practices. I highly recommend them to those who want to know they are going to be treated with respect and fairness from the moment they drive onto the lot.

Al Flores was very helpful. I went their memorial weekend, was the first to greet me and show me around. Wasnt too for sure about car buying so I wanted to wait for my parents to come down to Virginia to help me pick out a car. Went back 2 weeks later asked for Al Flores and he Remembered my name!!!! I was very pleased he actually remembered working with me and he rememeber that I told him I was coming back with my parents. Talked with my parents as far as purchasing the vehical but my parents werent satified with the figures so we ended up leave. Al then went to talk to his General Manager to see what they can work out for me, the GM called me back in Al sat us down once again and worked with me and my parents are far the best pricing and how much we needed to put down and everything. I love him he was great walked me through everything, very patient, answered all my questions, my parents can be very stict and stern but he knew how to handle the situation so we all can leave happy and I left with my brand new 2012 honda civic. My next honda i will for sure purchase from him.

I have to say that Brad did an outstanding job helping us during our search for a new vehicle. He was very professional and frienly and new his product well. We acually visited your competition down the Blvd(Hall Honda) and the difference between Checkered Flag and Hall Honda was unbelievable. I would and will recommend your dealerships to my family and friends, as well as Brad in sales. I also want to say that Chad(sales manager) did a great job and i thank him for his professionalism and help also in this transaction. He did a great job in locating my wife a Honda Pilot with everything she had requested. Thanks again!She is very happy with her new Honda Pilot....Scott and Heather Normandt

My wife and I recently went to Checkered Flag Honda in Norfolk. The staff was professional, fair, and forthcoming. Their knowledgeable provided helpful insight and assistance rather than pushy sales. Our salesman, James Rose, made sure we ended up with the exact car that fit both are needs and wants without exceeding a logical price point. In addition, we were then offered a reasonable trade-in value on our Trailblazer. The overall experience was OUTSTANDING!

Worked with Bo Wang and in the future if I need another car I hope to work with him again. Bo was able to answer my questions directly and accurately. I was able to test drive a couple of cars and found the best deal. I would high recommend him if your tired of getting the run around from other sales agents.

Brought a vehicle in for service, ended up purchasing a new vehicle and trading in the one which needed service. Eric Rogers, who sold me the new vehicle was very professional as was the service attendant, Dave Chebalo, whom I've delt with on numerous previous occasions. Chebalo is basically the reason I keep returning to Checkered Flag. Rogers was very good with his sales delivery, no high pressure nor BS, which is encountered on so many occasions when purchasing a vehicle. Rogers knew his product and was able to answer all questions presented. I wish all auto purchases could be this good, satisfying and enjoyable. This is without question, the best auto dealership I've delt with.

We bought our 2012 Honda CR-V six days ago! We are pleased so far. I had researched the car and knew exactly what to buy and approximately at what price. I approached four local dealers through the web ('get a price quote'). The sales people at the other dealers in the area I talked to were vague, would not give a total price in writing or on the phone. One of them said the he would beat any written quote I had by two hundred dollars. But he himself would not give me a written quote. Where I got written quotes, they were mostly MSRP prices. Virginia dealers seem to have "conspired" to charge their customers a "processing fee" of $ 499.00! They do not disclose in their initial quotes. Their initial quotes often exclude the 'destination fee'. These can easily add to over $ 2000. They seem to try to make their initial quotes as attractive as possible, to get you into their dealership. I did not face any of these tacticts at Checked Flag Honda. I first dealt with Shirley Camenzind of their internet team and thru email and phone calls was able to establish with the help of Shirley a total price which was agreeable. Shirley was knowledgeable, courteous and was one of the few car dealer personnel who actually quoted a firm price. Then only we visited the dealership just once to decide on the exterior and interior colors. Since they did not have the vehicle we wanted in stock, we made a deposit towards the purchase of the vehicle we wanted. In terms of the actual sale, I dealt initially briefly with Brandon and then mostly with the sales associate Benjamin Mung'Aithi. They were able to obtain the vehicle we wanted from another dealership within about two weeks. No extra charges for this! Benjamin was very polite, knowledgeable and humorous and helped me mostly with the paperwork. We had very little discussion, if any, at the dealership over the price!!So far, we are happy with our experience.ROM

Marc was the best car salesman we have every dealt with. From the first time we met him, through purchase, we knew we could trust him and trust everything he said. He gave us a great deal and we felt he did it with our best interests in mind. In fact, he had more than one client both times we were in the showroom, and each time, it was as if we were his only customers. This was undoubtedly the best car purchase experience for me!!Great job, Marc. We will be asking for Marc each visit from now on!!

I walked into the dealership just pondering the idea of getting a car. After looking at some Bo remembered the Honda si in the back and took me to it. He wasn't very pushy with it, he was mosty interested in me test driving it so I could feel the difference between two cars. Once I decided that it was what I wanted He did everything he could to help get me to the monthly payment I wanted. He even ran my credit score twice trying to get me the best offer. Once I purchased the car he called me a week later to make sure everything was going the way it was suppose to. Bo made buying a car something enjoyable rather then miserable. I would easily go back to him to buy another.

We started our car search with Doug, he was great but had an emergency and passed us off to Carl. They were very informative and worked well with us. The sales manager staff were great to deal with. The overall experience was good. We will recommend this dealer to our friends and family.

My experience at checkered flag Honda was great! Everyone was super friendly and worked hard to get me into a new Honda that I could afford. I'm am very pleased with my new car. If the time at the dealership could be less that would be great- it was a long day.

Ben was very friendly and courteous towards me and my family. Not only was he very patient with the sale process he also explained the interior devices in my new car with my children. Ben not only friendly but should exceptional customer service. I would definately recommend his sales expertise to my friends and family members.

I went to checkered flag just to look around at some used cars. Brad came up to me greeted my friend and me very nicely then started showing me the new inventory. He was very thorough in showing me the car and answering my questions. It took me a couple of days to decide what I wanted to do and all the people I worked with at checkered flag were very patient with me throughout making my decison. I live in Newport news and made the trip back and forth to checkered flag because I didn't feel like a number to them, I felt like a valued client. I would recommend this place to everyone, great staff, clean facility and great inventory!

When we arrived at the dealer we were greeted by Vernon Belford with a hand shake and a smile, we told what we were looking for and off we went and looked at various vehicles in which Vernon was a fountain of knowledge. We made several visits to the dealership before making our selection; each time we visited Vernon greeted us like we were family and made us feel welcome. He answered all of our question. You can tell that Vernon takes great pride in his work and will go out of his way to satisfy his customers. A salesman you can trust. Thanks Vernon.

Paul Sudo was a great person to work with at Checkered Flag. I was in the market for a new Honda, and I needed to keep costs down. I never felt pressured by Paul to get any add ons that I didnt feel were necessary for me, and I always felt like he was being forthright about the entire car buying process. He also knew everything there was to know about any car I looked at. I would definitely recommend buying a new car at Checkered Flag and asking for Paul.Note, I had visited other Honda dealerships in the area in addition to working with Paul at Checkered Flag, and Checkered Flag was far and above the best experience. Unfortunately for the other dealerships, it was no contest on who was providing the best environment to buy a new car. The dealership at Checkered Flag was more open and inviting, the people had a more positive energy, and Paul made everything easy.

I received the best rate with Mr. Anderson out of numerous Honda dealerships that I visited while car shopping. Not only was the price great but the experience was amazing. This was my first car that I purchased on my own and Mr. Anderson made it all worthwile. The entire experience was great and I'd give Mr. Anderson and the Checker Flag Honda dealership 5 Stars anyday!

Overall, my experience with this dealership was great! They worked with me. I had gone to Priority Honda, but they acted as if my business was not important to them. So I went elsewhere. They didn't even take the time to sit down and talk with me. My advice to anyone, never judge a book by it's cover. The people that you think may not be able to purchase from you, probably can and will.

Mr. Belford was very honest and helpful when I was trying to purchase a car. I've been to 3 other car dealers and No one was able to help. He made me and my husband feel comfort about purchasing a car. I would recommend everyone I know to go and visit Mr Belford for their car purchase.

Checkered Flag's new car salesman Carl Dyson is the kind of guy that's a pleasure to do business with! He asked me all the right questions and then listened attentively to my answers. He was genuinely interested in helping me get what I wanted in a new car, rather than trying to persuade me into choosing something that he or the dealership may have wanted. Over the past couple of decades, I've attempted at least four or five times to purchase or lease a new Honda, but never could get the kind of deal I wanted on one. But, this time was different! Mr. Dyson was very understanding and extremely helpful! He worked patiently and carefully with me and helped me to get the best deal... a deal that could work within my budget... on both the car I traded in and also on the brand new Honda Accord I wanted! Because of this car buying experience, I believe that Carl Dyson and Checkered Flag Honda truly care about their customers! They give real meaning to the words, "how may I help you" and "what can we do for you"... because they seem to be more interested in meeting their customers' needs than they do their own. In all my 42 years of car buying experience, this was the most pleasurable one. I highly recommend Carl Dyson and Checkered Flag Honda to anyone interested in buying or leasing a new Honda!

This was my first experience buying a new car. Randy was very knowledgeable about the vehicle and left nothing unsaid. I was guided through the purchasing process and even given helpful advice on changing my insurance, financing and selling my old vehicle. Randy went above and beyond. In fact we originally looked at another Honda dealership but were very unsatisfied with the customer service. Checkered Flag was the best route to go!

I feel like I have to correct my first review of this dealership. I originally wrote one on May 2, 2012 giving this dealership a glowing review, but that has since changed. I originally purchased my vehicle on 27 April 2012 which was a Friday night. I had accessories added so I knew it would take a few days with it being the weekend. I was assured that it would be complete on Tuesday at the latest. Come Tuesday I had not heard from my salesman until I called and he informed me that all the parts just arrived and that it would be ready on Thursday afternoon. So, come Thursday afternoon I had not heard from anybody so AGAIN I called to check the status and was informed that it WAS NOT COMPLETE! I called back AGAIN Friday and because I could not get in touch with the salesman I called the service department who had the new car sales manager call me. He called me to tell me that the wrong parts were ordered. ARE YOU KIDDING ME...WRONG PARTS ORDERED. Not once was I ever told what parts were ordered wrong and I still don't know what parts they need to complete the delivery. What disturbs me is that I called and gave my credit card on 25 April 2012 (so I assumed they would order the accessories then...but I guess I was wrong in assuming). So, it is now 6 May 2012 and I still don't have my vehicle and have heard nothing from anybody regarding its status when that is the one thing I did ask for. I have also received an email scheduling me for service in September during the week. Why would I have my vehicle serviced here when they cannot even order the correct accessories at the beginning of this whole situation? My confidence has not been restored. The dealership gave me a great price...but that is the only thing that has stood out!

He turned what I had expected to be a painful experience into a quick and painless one. Oh, by the way did I mention that he found a lower rate for me.

Al was a pleasure to work with. We never felt pressured to make a decision and he was just as eager to show us a Honda Fit as he was to show us the CRV. He spent a great deal of time with us as we test drove several vehicles and he was very patient explaining all the details of each vehicle. We would definitely recommend him to our friends and family.

Vernon has sold me two cars and most importantly my first BRAND NEW car!! And the only person I would ever feel comfortable buying a car from. He always go above and beyond. Answered all my emails and phone calls promptly. Also I love when he calls me on my birthday to sing happy birthday on my voicemail. Most importantly he makes me feel like a VIP client even when I bought a nine year old truck that was under $10,000. Next time though I want a some free stuff i.e car washes or oil changes??? Something??? BUT Vernon did tell me about the honda website where I could get a couple of goodies for free. All in all he's the BEST!!!

Paul was AWESOME. I was sooooo tired of going to car dealers and giving me the usual "car salesman" speal. Paul from the get go let us look at the car by ourselves. Then I asked him to show it to me. He took a lot of time inside the car with me and my husband. He explained the whole car and it's values. I was very happy with my experience. I would recommend Paul to everyone. When I got ready to go, Paul took me out to my brand new, beautiful polished car. The young man made sure there wasnt a speck on it (I don't know his name,but he made the care look perfect). Paul made sure I was buckled in and new where to go and what to do. Oh yeah, he also endulged me and got in some pictures for my scrapbook. The sales manager also spoke with us. I was happy with him also. It was probably the best car buying experience I ever had.THANK YOU VERY MUCH!Bj Watson

Mr. Mungaithi was very helpful. He showed me what I was interested in and then showed me an alternative, which turned out to be a better choice for me at a price which fit my budget better. He was accommodating in every way, never pushy, but offering choices for me to make my own decision. I would definitely recommend him to friends or purchase through him again.

Checkered Flag has been my Honda dealer of choice for the past 8 years, as the quality of their service has been excellent. Benjamin Mungaithi is an outstanding car salesman, as he went out of his way to be sure I had the Honda model that would please me. He spent a great deal of time with me (at first I thought I wanted a Civic, but I later changed my mind to an Accord), and he explained all of the features of each model patiently, allowing me to return demonstration of many of the features. He was very kind, respectful, and friendly throughout the entire process- I must say far superior to any car salesman I've ever dealt with, and I've purchased many new cars over the past 35 years. Without a doubt, Checkered Flag Honda's management, Service Department (David and Terry, in particular), and Benjamin Mungaithi all have my respect and appreciation for their excellence in service. Kristi Fermeil, in the Business Office, was also efficient and very professional in her manner. Even though I live a few minutes from another Honda dealership, I only ever deal with Checkered Flag Honda (about 30 minutes away). They deserve 5 stars across the board!

I enjoyed the overall experience. This was my second chance at interacting with Mr Dyson and he was extremely knowledgeable as well as a pleasure to work with. He sold my partner her new 2011 Honda Element and the experience was enjoyable as well so I decided to give it a try with him also. He wasn't "pushy" with me and he allowed me time to decide when I was ready to buy (2mo). I purchased a 2012 Honda Fit Sport and am extremely happy with my new car as well as the service i received. I would definitely recommend anyone in search of a Honda vehicle take a visit to Checkered Flag Honda and speak with Carl Dyson.

Until I sat down to complete the final paperwork, I was thoroughly impressed with Checkered Flag. Unfortunately, when we sat down to complete the financing, it became apparent that the certified used car I was purchasing had been de-certified and this information was not communicated to me by my original sales person. After a long while of back and forth between various employees, Mr. Anderson stepped into the situation and had the car re-certified at the same price, and the transaction continued. With the exception of this lack of communication regarding the certification status of the vehicle, my experience with Checkered Flag has been amazing! Everyone is super friendly and helpful. I plan to continue having my car serviced with this crew!

I was in the market for a new Honda Accord. Brad Comess was my sales associate. He was an excellent salesperson from the start. He is friendly, kind, outgoing, patient, and most importantly, understood not to rush me so that I could make the appropriate research I needed to buy the best car. I am extremely happy with him and the great attention he paid to my situation. By far, the best sales associate I could have asked for as well as the best customer service. I bought a great car for a great and fair price. My overall experience with Brad was outstanding. I would absolutely recommend him to my family and friends for their next car purchase.

My husband and I would definitely buy another car from Checkered Flag Honda and more importantly from our sales representative Bo Wang. Although we arrived late Sunday evening to the Checkered Flag Honda lot, Bo was more than happy to stay after hours to show us the car and to see how his company could close the deal. Their wasn't any of the normal "car salesman" pressure and we felt free to come or go as we please. Bo was very helpful with all the paperwork. In fact, since it was so late, and we wanted to go eat, he jotted down our vital information and made sure all the paperwork was ready to sign first thing the next morning.Bo has continually been very helpful. His congratulatory email, as well as his help setting up our first service appointment (we had factory door edge car moldings installed) was very much appreciated. We couldn't be happier with the service from Checkered Flag Honda in Norfolk, VA and expect to get our next car from them as well.Thanks to Bo and thanks to Checkered Flag Honda for their professionalism and ease with buying our new car!

We went to a few dealers before going to Checkered Flag Honda. Most of the experiences were OK. Some salesman were very pushy trying to get me into a certain car. When we got to Checkered Flag Honda, we were greated by a sales person named Al Flores. Al was one of the friendliest people we have ever met. We told him we were looking for a van for our family. He took his time to show us almost 15 different vans, offering to test drive each of them if we wanted. He was not pushy in any way, trying to get us to buy something then and there. I loved the relaxed an no pressure feeling he had with us. He even worked past his work ours with us, with still no rushed feeling. We settled on a van we liked, and he helped us find out the best way to pay so we could drive home that night. It was such a great experience that we will go back to Checkered Flag Honda the next time we buy a vehicle! Thanks again Al!

Al Flores greeted me with open arms. He made sure no other dealer was helping me out. I told him of our family's needs and he willingly helped me. We walked around Lot 5 and he explained to me about the details of each vehicle. He showed me my top picks. I finally fell in love with a vehicle but my husband was not with me. We went through the financing details. We were not able to finance through a bank bcause of the age and mileage of vehicle, hoever, my parents were going to help me. My parents live in a different state so getting the money took a few days. Al helped us bring the vehicle home with a promissory note tobpay a portion in a couple of days. The van is meets our family's need perfectly. Thank you!

My wife and I went in to buy a Honda Pilot on a Saturday. We found one we liked and after 6 hours of being at the dealership we finally took it home. They sold us on the Honda Certified program and I even bought the "wrap" warranty. When we got the vehicle home and drove it the following day we noticed that a brake light was out and one of the rear brakes was squeaking. I called Benjamin, our salesman, to address my concerns and he told me to take it to our local dealership. (we live in Newport News) I know the warranties don't cover "wear and tear" items, but considering we notice the problems within 24 hours I figured Checkered Flag would assume responsibility and fix whatever it is free of charge. When I took the Pilot to our local dealership they wanted $60 just to change the lightbulb so I decided to hold off and called Checkered Flag again. I talked to the sales manager, Brandon, and he referred me to Dave, a service advisor. I left a message with Dave and haven't heard back yet. I don't think I'm asking too much to have a bulb replaced and the brakes serviced so they aren't squeaking on a Honda Certified vehicle. Besides this, it is the 3rd Honda in 5 years that we have bought from Checkered Flag so I hope that someone will read this and pass it along to the appropriate person to remedy this situation. Thank you. Andreu Moore757.310.1927

The salesman was very accommodating when we expressed our desire to purchase a specific automobile. When we asked him to give us a price on the car, he brought his manager out to speak with us about it. While we waited for our sale to be finalized, he checked on us to keep us up to date on the progress of the transaction. This is the second car we have purchased from this dealership and we have been pleased with both of the experiences. If the opportunity presented itself, we would purchase from them again.

The staff were a credit to the organization; they respected my request to not call me and I was able to negotiate a price via email before I stepped foot on dealership floor; I new exactly what I wanted and they pick up on that. They dealt with my request in a professional way without all the salesman rubbish that other dealerships think will make you buy their cars i.e. mimicking, etc. Once on the dealership floor, there was no pressure from any of the staff and the conversation remained within a professional context. I left the dealership and came back a few days later to buy the car.Completely out shined the other dealerships.

After having a not-so-good experience at another dealership, I found myself warmly greeted at the door by Paul Sudo. (It is important to note that I was indeed GREETED and WELCOMED, not ATTACKED or SWARMED like typical car salesmen do...) Within the first 5 minutes of talking with Paul, I knew I would end up buy something from him. His genuine kindness and true concern for accommodating me created a very comfortable and safe environment, which is important to a single female when out car shopping to say the least! I would highly recommend (and already have!) this dealership and more importantly, recommend Paul, to others in need of purchasing a vehicle. Paul made my first car-buying experience one that won't be forgotten!

I suggest everyone buy cars from Carl Dyson!! I gave a great rating because I was given great service. My family told me to drive all the way to Norfolk from the mountains of Lynchburg, where I live, just to buy a car from Carl because he is that great. Carl has sold cars to my uncle and my cousin and now me, and I am the picky one. I have to be fair; I am hard to work with. I know what I want and how I want it and I do not settle for less. Carl made sure I got everything I wanted in a car, even the small things I wanted like a good working radio and enough space for my long legs. Even though I would only be in town for a day, Carl got everything I needed done before I had to be back to Lynchburg for work. Carl even made sure I made it to visit my family, while I was there. To be honest I was in a bad mood and a little impatient while I was there, because of other things going on in my life at the time, but Carl was nice to me and still worked hard for me despite my poor attitude. I am so glad I drove 4 hours to come to Norfolk to buy a car from Carl because he got me the perfect car for me :D!!!!

We were able to get the price we wanted with the accessories we wanted. When we went in to pick up the vehicle, there were absolutely NO surprises. The only "other" was the wait, but that was just bad luck on our part due to the number of people buying vehicles that night. Everyone was helpful and friendly.

Bo did a great job showing us vehicles, taking us on test drives, and introducing us to the intricacies of the vebicles! The best part is he did this without being pushy or overbearing! Great job! I gave a four on price because we ask for 18,500 for our vehicle and they only allowed 18,250; although they have it for sale now at 22,000. They could have given me the 18,500. Bottom line is this is an excellent dealership, Bo is an excellent salesman and we will be back again.

Great buying experience! Price prenegoitiated before arriving at the dealership. Brad was extremely helpful and went out of his way to make our stay enjoyable. Robert Chen was fantastic to deal for financing. We will continue to be Checkered Flag customers. We love the CR-V !!

Let's talk about Checkered Flag Honda. As you approach this very interesting structure your eyes are caught gazing into the sea of new cars on the lot. Your first impression is that a salesman will jump out of nowhere and start the process of trying to put you, the consumer, into a new or used car. But at Checkered Flag you are not oppressed by these commission hungry salesmen. You are met with a very calm informed staff. I must say this was a shock to me since going to dealerships can seem a bit shaky for younger adults such as myself. I personally wasn't met by salesmen at first, I casually walked into the building not being approached by a single one. It was at this moment I was helped by one of the most charismatic and kind souls at the dealership, Carl Dyson. At first judgement anyone can clearly see he has the skills to be a great salesmen. Something else sets Mr. Dyson apart from the rest though, his passion for helping the consumer and his servants heart. When I sat in the dealership Dyson was running around left and right attending to me and other consumers working with him. This was something not seen in other salesmen. Luckily for us we decide who we want to work with! Since we have this great opportunity I strongly recommend everyone request Dyson and see what he has to offer. Now no one is perfect, and this includes Dyson. When it comes down to the nitty gritty of arguing over price, he will try to power talk you. Especially over the phone. But once again that is the style he has developed over his years of working in sales and being lead salesman numerous times. With so many positives that is something that can be truly ignored. Bottom line is don't be afraid to give Checkered Flag Honda a look, and ask for Carl Dyson.

This is the 5th Honda I've bought from Checkered Flag. The last 3 have been from Bo. When he assisted me the first time I had such a great experience I have requested him personally every time since and will continue to do so. He works as hard as he can to make me a deal I can afford, as a matter of fact I drove all the way from Washington DC to buy the car from him rather than in my new town. I would definitely recommend working with him.

Paul made the whole buying experience enjoyable. We told hime what we were looking for -- he called us and advised us when he had something he thought fit our needs. The car was perfect. Once we got to the dealership Paul was focused on getting us the best service possible. Even though he was working with more than one customer we always knew he was on task with getting our deal done. I've already asked Paul to start working on our next purchase -- might even make a new car this time because of the quality service.Thank you for a great buying experienceJohn

From the minute I walked in the door, Brad Comess and the rest of the Checkered Flag Honda staff were completely focused on great customer service and making me feel comfortable in their dealership. I had been looking for a new vehicle for a few months and in that time had experienced several pushy, sales-driven car salesmen who were only interested in my checkbook. Brad was not that way. He put my wants and needs above the sale of the vehicle which is what great customer service is all about. Not only am I pleased with my Honda, I am VERY pleased with my dealership. I look forward to many purchases and many years of good relations with Brad and the rest of the Checkered Flag Honda family. Sincerely,Michelle L. Gooding

I gave the rating because the service was both professional and very informative. Vernon respected me as an adult unlike many dealers in the past who disregarded my seriousness because of my age. Vernon offered world class service and I would refer him to others looking for a car

Caught between a rock and a hard place after surviving a 4 car accident that totaled my vehicle, I needed something right away but didn't have a lot of wiggle room money wise. Between Robert Chen and Carl Dyson, who both worked so dilligently on my behalf to get me into something that was reliable and that I could afford, the transition from no car to a new/used car was absolutely painless.They were both very genuinely friendly and interested in getting me into a vehicle that would not exceed my budget, but was also something that I liked.I would highly recommend everyone I know who needs to buy either a new or used vehicle to go to Checkered Flag Honda and ask for either of these gentlemen. The weight they helped lift off my shoulders cannot accurately be measured in words.Thank you to both of them for such a job well done!!!

I reside in North Carolina. I could not drive my car on the Highway so I caught a bus to Va Beach with the sole purpose of purchasing a new (to me)vehicle. I was definitley ready and needed reliable transportation. My Experience on 2/31/2011 was good. It was a long day, but well worth it. Bottom line, I left with a car. Dennis Anderson sold my daughter a car a couple of years ago and she has been extremely happy with her purchase. I felt comfortable going back to this dealership and working with Dennis. I cant tell you the name of everyone I encountered that day, but I can tell you everyone was friendly, helpful and knowledgable. Since I live in North Carolina, they assured me that any Honda Dealer will be able to assist me as needed. That was definitely as source of comfort and reassurance. I still have family and friends in Va and would definitley recommend Dennis Andreson and this or any Checkered Flag Dealership based on my experience with them.

The entire checkered flag team was and always has been a pleasure to work with. More specifically, Al Flores is a wonderful sales consultant. He is friendly and personable and very knowledgable. Al truly listened to my needs and never pressured me into buying a car I wasn't completely satisfied with. Al made the dreaded car buying process less grueling and business was conducted in a timely fashion. I will be returning to Al in the future.

Me and my wife purchased a 2011 Honda Fit (new) from Brad Comess at Checkered Flag Honda. The experience was so streamlined and pleasant that I came back by myself to purchase another vehicle, and asked specifically for Brad. I came back because I needed to trade-in my two-door vehicle for a four-door vehicle due to my infant's car-seat situation. I went to purchase a used car to keep myself financially secure for the future (less payments). I intended to get an '07 vehicle with about 60k miles since I was trading in this type of vehicle, but ended up getting a '10 vehicle with 30k miles. This was a better deal because Brad worked with me patiently, and helped me to make my purchase more affordable. Most of all, I drove away with a vehicle that fit my situation better and will last me a long time to come. Out of all dealerships I've ever worked with, I felt the most comfortable with this one. Most dealerships 'push' you to your decision. I did not have that at this dealership. That made a big difference in my decision to purchase a vehicle at this specific dealership. Going to buy a car has always been a dreadful experience for me, but I felt at ease here, and Brad was very personable. Nobody had me do anything I didn't want to do. I knew exactly what I wanted when I got there, and everyone worked with me on that. The only gripe I had was that Brad took me to see 2012 cars right away, when I specifically said I was looking for a used car, and gave reason of why. I should have got more for my trade-in vehicle. I had an emotional attachment to the car I was trading in since I never intended to ever trade it in. To see my car valued so low has placed a mark on this experience. Warranty extensions were too expensive. This I regretted as well. I did not purchase any extras because I can get a better warranty somewhere else.

Ben was an excellent salesman! Not only did he end up selling me the car I'm loving today, but what I really appreciated was that he did not try to sell me the most expensive car without listening to my wants first. He was very knowledgable on all the models and varieties of the cars and he ultimately lead me to buying the exact car I wanted.

Found the car my Granddaughter really liked, at a price she could afford. Dennis was extremely heplful. All I had to do was sign the papers and the Granddaughter drove it home. She is very happy to say the least. This is the fourth car we have purchased from Checkered Flag, and you will be my choice when I buy the next one. The guys over in the detail, and touchup department did a great job on the car. Give Dennis a pat on the back, he is a "Keeper". He will sell me next vehicle.Charles O. Rice

My husband and I met Carl years ago when we test drove the Honda FIT, which had just come out. I remembered him years later when I finally decided to buy a new car, the Civic Coupe. He was friendly, professional, and he helped me find the exact car I wanted. The transaction was quick and fun. I actually brought my daughter with me to pick up the car just so she could meet Carl. I purposely passed another Honda dealer on my way over to this dealership. I think that says it best.

This was my second purchase from the Checkered Flag family and my first ever purchase of a Honda. I was happy to find my earlier Impression of Checkered Flag wasn't a mistake and found the professionalism, pride, and service at Checkered Flag Honda was nothing short of fantastic. At every step it was evident the primary concern of everyone I dealt with during my purchase and since was about my experience and the happiness. I was back at the dealer just this morning to have window rain visors installed and witnessed the same devotion to quality and my experience. Terrific experience and a terrific staff.

My experience with Checkered Flag Honda was excellent. Mr. Carl Dyson was extremely helpful and friendly and was able to answer all my questions. At know time did he try to pressure me into purchasing a vehicle like some sales people do. Once i decided to buy my Honda the rest was easy. I was in and out of the showroom in less then an hour and before driving off in my new car Mr. Dyson explained all the features the vehicle had to offer and even made sure my cell phone was programmed into my car. He is a true professional and an asset to your company. I would defiantly recommend Checkered Flag Honda and Mr. Dyson to all my family and friends.

We have purchased from Checkered Flag Honda before, and this time the experience was the same as the first. Carl Dyson is extremely patient and his advice is very helpful in purchasing a vehicle. I can't really say enough good things about Carl, and he is one of the main reasons we came right back to Honda again. Honda products are very high quality. Carl was very patient while he basically paraded a bunch of Odyssey's in front of us while we found something not to like about each of them. Finally we settled on the Touring Elite and while most people's instincts would be to sigh or to say "finally" or remarks of the kind, I never heard any of this from Carl. He is a great guy and an awesome and extremely helpful sales person. At no time did he put excess pressure on us to buy.

Checkered flag Honda has taken care of my mother and I for the past 9 years now. So when it was time for me to get a new car going back to checkered flag felt most comfortable. Al Flores took great care of me. He was honest, friendly, patient, and answered every question I had including ones I did not think to ask. He made me feel 100% confident and comfortable in my purchase. I do not trust most people, especially those in sales, however I feel that I can trust Al Flores, and other key people at Checkered Flag Honda.

I am 65 years old, a retired Navy Commander. In all my years, this is without a doubt the best purchasing experience I have ever encountered, of any kind. The salesperson (Paul Sudo) without a doubt knows Honda inside and out. He made buying my Honda CR-V the most enjobable experience imagineable. It is obvious that he not loves the product he sells, but wants everyone to love it also. No high pressure salesmanship, instead he explains every detail in a manner that anyone can understand, answers any and all questions about Honda automobiles. He did not sell the product, for Honda could sell itself...it is that good, but he made the buying experience a pure pleasure. Thank you very much!

I came to Checkered Flag first because they had the exact vehicle I wanted and secondly bc they were the dealership who initially sent me the letter asking to buy my 2007 Accord. From the moment my mom and I walked in the doors and first met with Eric, I was pleased. He was friendly, professional, knowledgable but not overbearing and pushy. I had done all my research and knew what I was willing to pay and what I could afford. I had also already walked out of 2 other Honda dealerships because of obnoxious salespeople trying to push a vehicle on me that I didn't want or couldn't afford. Eric and Eugene in finance both made this buying experience a very good one and I am more than happy and willing to recommend Checkered Flag to my family and friends. I was so pleased with the level of service and professionalism I received throughout the week and a half long decision making process. Eric did several things that stood out to me. First he offered to let me test drive the car and take it home for a couple nights without me having to ask. He also stopped me before I drove off the lot after purchasing to fill up my tank with gas, something I hadn't noticed and didn't realize was a "perk" I got for purchasing. It was late in the evening and he could have just let me drive off but he went above and beyond and took 5 extra minutes to assure my satisfaction. I will be returning to checkered Flag today with my brother to look at Civics for him. We want to give Checkered Flag our business.

This is the second car I bought from Checkered Flag in a little over a year. Last year my salesman was Gary Gullickson and I was pleased with the experience. This year I dealt with Eugene and Chad. I knew exactly which CR-V I wanted, it was not on the lot and they found it in North Carolina and had it driven here. It was exactly what I wanted and I love the car. Eugene also did the paperwork and auto license plates. The total experience was fast and painless. I would recommend Checkered Flag Honda to my friends and family.

Vernon was a God-send for my wife and I. He was straight to the point, honest and compassionate. He was truly there for the customer and their needs. I briefly explained to him the kind of vehicle we were in the market for and what it would be used for, and he helped us in the right direction by putting us in a 2011 CRV. He didn't try to put us in a vehicle that was beyond our needs and out of our price range just so could make a dollar. He found us the most practical vehicle for what we were needing. The price and payments were excellent. I didn't have to bargain, I looked at the price and payment on the paper and told him I would take it. This car is a great addition for my wife and our baby to be. Even if we decided to not buy a Honda product again, we will be going through Vernon.

We were recently sued by Checkered Flag Honda for unpaid sales taxes that this dealership said that we were exempt from paying and did not include in the original purchase order. The general manager of this dealership, ROBERT CHEN, is, in my opinion, a very dishonest man who will do whatever it takes, including LYING, to get you to buy a car from his dealership. If you consider yourself to be someone who values honesty and integrity STAY AWAY from this dealership and its questionable business practices. HALL HONDA on Virginia Beach Ave has been a pleasure to work with since turning my back on Checkered Flag. Don't let the new car smell, starched shirts, and smiling salesmen trick you into buying a car from this dealership.

He was well informed about comparisons with competing makes and models of SUVs. Additionally, he was friendly, respectful and accommodating. The finance manager Kristie was also very helpful. She was fast, efficient, friendly, and arranged for my financing easily. Overall purchasing this SUV was easy and peasant, which I appreciated very much.

This was more then just a functional purchase, it was well researched and thought out. Carl and the manager Chad did thier best to make us feel welcome, but more importantly, to help us purchase the right car. We came in looking for an Element and test drove it on 2 occasions, just not right for us. Carl then worked with us to find what we were looking for and what met our needs. The Ridgeline wasn't even on our horizon but Carl thought it would be worth the time and he was right. It met all of our needs and execeeded all of our wants.

I came in to look at the CRV and left with a Pilot because I could not get the color I wanted. However, now that I have the Pilot I cannot imagine driving the smaller CRV! Very comfortable vehicle.

I HAVE NO COMPLAINTS AT ALL WITH BRAD.I WENT TO CHECKERED FLAG BASED ON PRIOR SERVICE EXPERIENCE WITH MY 1997 CIVIC. DAVID BROWN, SERVICE DEPARTMENT, WAS A POSITIVE FACTOR IN THIS.I DO THINK THE 'DEALER' - NEITHER BRAD NOR DAVID HAD THE FINAL AUTHORITY FOR THIS - COULD HAVE BEEN MORE AGGRESSIVE IN THEIR PRICING WITH THIS NEW CAR. BASED ON MY SERVICE EXPERIENCE WITH THE DEALER AND THE FACT THAT I AM A REPEAT CIVIC CUSTOMER, I DO BELIEVE THAT THERE WERE GROUNDS THERE FOR MORE PRICING DISCOUNTS THAN WERE OFFERED. THERE WAS ALSO NO PRICING DISCOUNTS OR INCENTIVES OFFERED OR OPEN TO DISCUSSION FOR THE AFTER SALE SERVICE OPTIONS I WAS INTERESTED IN.

Mr. Comess, the salesman, emanated the air of professionalism throughout the duration of my visit to this dealership. The primary quality of Brad which differentiated him from other salesman is that he wasn't too 'pushy', as many car salesman tend to be. He had faith in his product and was able to find the best deal available based on the customer at hand. I didn't know this before, but customers are more likely to buy from a salesman who they trust and with whom they've developed a certain repore. Brad certainly represented the dealership well in this regard. I highly recommend this dealership and this salesman. A++

My wife had gotten some information about the car from Carl Dyson, I believe . But when we came back Carl was not in so we had to work with Brad. He was a little arrogant and obnoxious. And he was not knowledgable about some things such as the free Sirrus radio promotion for 3 months, he insisted was not free. And how we could not get a full tank of gas. Carl came in later and greeted us and spoke to us a couple of times while we were processing our vehicle. We wished we could have worked with Carl as he was much more personable and knowledgable but we would come back to Checkered Flag as we are happy with the Honda.

I visited other Honda dealerships and I decided to go with Checkered Flag. Eric Rogers was straight forward, but not pushy. He answered all of my questions and was very knowledgeable and communicated well. I would definitely purchase from Checkered Flag in the future and also recommend it to family and friends.

My overall experience has been great. James Rose was eager to help us and showed us several cars. He let us drive any that we were interested in. He was very patient while we decided, even though it was very hot outside that day. I would definitly refer him and the dealership to anyone looking for a car.

Bo was excellent to work with. I told him exactly what I wanted and he was able to deliver. I shopped five different Honda dealers in Hampton Roads and they had the best price and offered the best service. I'd gladly recommend them to anyone.

We purchased vehicles in the past form Hall Nissan, Priority Hyundia and Greenbrier Chrysler. This recent experience with James Ross at Checkered Flag Honda was the best hands down. James Ross is very professional, polite and experienced sales person. He listened to what we wanted and did not try to talk us into a vehicle that we did not want. He answered all our questions and is a very honest and reliable person. we are glad we purchased our vehicle from him and will suggest others to do the same.

Scott went above and beyond the call in all arenas pertaining to the choice and acquisition of my Honda Accord. He attended to all details flawlessly and with noteworthy efficiency. In all of my car buying experience [ I am over sixty ], I can truly say this transaction stands alone in a category of excellence! He is a superior salesman; any dealership would be fortunate to have him in their employ, and it goes without saying that I will highly recommend Scott Weseleskey to any friends who may be in the market. Many thanks, Scott from Veronica Kochey.

I had remembered how nice everyone had been at the Chrckered Flag BMW dealership even though I had not purchased from them in 2004. I decided to visit the Honda dealership to try out a Crosstour. Brad came out as I arrived and was quite easy to talk to and then work with as we came to terms I could be happy with. We drove the car and then I drove it home for the evening and returned on Sunday ready to own my car. All the way through the process he was helpful and encouraging. I love my car!

I do appreciate the service at Checked Flag Honda in Norfolk, they are friendly and enthusiastic. I was particularly impressed by Mr. Wang who was very nice, listening to you attentively, answering each of your questions with great patience, introducing everything in detail, and helping you understand what kind of car is your best choice. I highly recommend Checked Flag Honda in Norfolk if you want to buy the kind of car you want, a car that meets your criteria.

I had a great experience at the dealership, Checkered Flag Honda and their crew helped me out tremendously! I would highly recommend Checkered Flag Honda to family and friends. From the start of when I walked in there to the time I drove off the lot. I have even received emails and personal calls to make sure everything was ok! Thank you for all the time and help.

We first researched Consumer's Reports and other car web sites, like KBB and Edmonds. We asked Consumer's Reports to give our name to car dealers. Checkered Flag contacted us with a very reasonable offer, so we chose to visit Checkered Flag first, over other car dealers. We were impressed with the professionalism of Mr Bo Wang, our car salesman,and his supervisors. After test driving the Honda Accord, since the price was right, we were able to close the deal quickly.

This Honda Dealership has served our family for the past twelve years. They are extremely professional, friendly, and great listeners to ones needs. It is very refreshing to walk in and not have a person down your back in seconds. Mr. Paul Sudo has done this for the Winfield family. He was very re-assuring when our 2003 leased automoblie was totaled in an accident. He took our worries away reminding us of the GAP insurance. It was just a matter of days when we were driving another leased automobile under the direction of Mr. Paul Sudo. When it came time for that lease turn in, he helped us again in a leased auto with lower payments. This was helpful as retirement was close. Always listening, always there, always with care is the best way to stated Checkered Flag Honda and Mr. Paul Sudo!!! With service like this there is no reason to go elsewhere. Friends have been refered to Checkered Flag for years and many have thanked us for the recommendation. Thank you again Checkered Flag and Mr. Paul Sudo.Respectfully,David and Laney Winfield

The only negative part of my experience at Checker Flag was the 1.5 hour wait to see the finance associate, who took my payment and provided my licence plate. This wait was excessive. I wish I had of been informed about it and given a specific appointment time.

Gary Levine was fantastic! He was friendly, extraordinarily knowledgeable about his products and industry. We felt like we were dealing with a businessman first, a "car salesman" last. We purchased our Honda Pilot after leasing one for three years, we so pleased with everything about the car, that we skipped the shopping around process and went straight to a Honda dealer, and feel more than fortunate that Gary was the person we got to help us make our purchase.

Bo was super helpful and patient with us. We got a great used Honda with which we couldn't be happier. The car is a Honda Certified used car, and the warranties we got will hopefully protect us for another 60,000 miles. Thanks for the great service!

Al Flores was very kind and patient when my husband and I arrived onto the car lot. He was very informative and allowed us to view as many options as were available on the lot. He was considerate to our fiscal needs and helped to work out a deal that was right within my budget, which was a lease with option to buy. I am very pleased with the work that he has done to make my visit less stressful and very successful.

Any questions I had Eugene did a great job of answering them quickly and accurately. Every problem that I had, Eugene was patient and understanding with me. Everything from getting financed to what car to choose. Eugene also gave me the idea of the Cobalt. I was unsure at first, but Eugene's knowledge of the Cobalt also made me confident that he was trying to find me a car in my budget and what I was looking for. Thanks again Eugene! I love my new car!

My wife and I met Mr. Levine while driving through the Honda used lot. He came out to greet us and talked to us for at least a half an hour. We knew we had found the right dealer. From the beginning, Mr. Levine was not pushy and did not pressure us in any way to buy a new vehicle. He was very honest with us on the quality we were getting, and was willing to work with us on the price. He was very interested in making a deal with us. I would recommend Gary Levine to anyone interested in purchasing a car at Checkered Flag Honda. You will not be disappointed!

Al Flores was prompt, knowledgeable and professional in every way. We knew exactly what we wanted, a white 2011 Odyssey EX-L and we had a pre-negotiated USAA price; Al Respected that, and worked with us to get the deal done quickly and smoothly. We would be happy to work with Al for a future purchase.

This was the best car buying experience we've had in 30 years of buying cars.Salemans Ben Mungaithi is very friendly and knowledgable about the vehicles. The Checkered Flag people are very friendly in every area. We experienced no pressure to buy at any time and all our questions were answered.We were looking for a car with good gas mileage, as much space as possible, and for under $20K. Ben had several cars to show us in that category, explained the advantages of each car and how each met our criteria. He did not push us toward any particular car or try to sell us a car outside the criteria we were looking for.The sale closing agent offered add-ons, such as maintenance agreements, auto protection, etc, but did not pressure us to purchase them.

I am so grateful to Mr. Anderson for his level of customer service. He was very patient, was always helpful, and went beyond the call of duty. He consistently returned my phone calls; he did not give up when others would have. I got the car I wanted with a down payment I could afford, and this wouldnt have happened without his willingness to do more than I expected.

I never knew buying a new car would be a life-changing experience. Checkered Flag Honda provided me with a wide-range of information to which made my car shopping experience more fulfilling. The car salesman was extremely knowledgeable, accessible, friendly, and provided excellent customer service. As a new buyer, I really didn't know what to expect but once I left the dealership with a brand new car, I felt complete. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Checkered Flag Honda to any person looking for a reliable car especially in this current day of time where the economy has become a bit unstable. Excellent customer service and a life-changing experience all wrapped in one.

This is my second vehicle purchased from Checkered Flag Honda and I have been most pleased both times. Sales staff have been knowledgeable and friendly.

Gary Lavine was an outstanding sales representative who displayed both professionalism and patience. His knowledge of the vehicles under consideration evoked a feeling of confidence for both my wife and myself. His experience in dealing with our questions and our transportation needs was clearly evident. I would not hesitate to recommend to future clients that they go to him and this dealership for their transportation needs.

BECAUSE OF IT'S REMARKABLE EMPLOYEE'S, THIS IS THE BEST DEALERSHIP IN THE WHOLE VIRGINIA AREA. I NAMED THE MAIN PEOPLE WE WORKED WITH FOR ONE REASON OR ANOTHER, BUT EVERYONE AT THIS PLACE JUST MAKES YOU FEEL LIKE FAMILY. THEY ARE CARING AND TRUSTWORTHY. WE HAVE PURCHASED A LOT OF VEHICLES, AND WE HAVE NEVER HAD A GENERAL MANAGER AND SALESMAN SET AT THE SAME TABLE WITH US TO NEGOCIATE A DEAL.THIS IS THE WAY ALL DEALERSHIPS SHOULD BE... WE PURCHASED OUR 05 HONDA FROM CHAD AND DOUG AND OUR EXPERIENCE WITH THEM IS THE REASON WE CAME BACK. WE LIVE IN WARRENTON, VA AND TRUST ME WHEN I SAY, THEY WILL MAKE YOUR TRIP WORTH THE DISTANCE (OUR'S IS 200 MILES ONE WAY). WE WILL BE TAKING OUR CAR TO THIS DEALER FOR THE 30,000, 60,000 AND 90,000 MILE SERVICE - UNLESS WE TRADE IT BEFORE THAT TIME. YOU HAVE A GREAT TEAM AT THIS DEALERSHIP. OTHERS COULD LEARN FROM THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I had done a little research on line before coming in to Checkered Flag. Upon meeting Bo Wang, I was immediately captured by his smile. He was quick, clear and concise with the way he handled my issues. I would work with Bo again in a heartbeat. Also, "Thank you" Checkered Flag for following up with the prep of a Certified, pre-owned car that I can be proud of.

My first Honda Civic EX SE was totalled in a wreck and I needed a car quickly. I searched high and low for a late model Honda to replace my first. Unfortunately, many of the dealers I contacted in NC and VA did not have the model I wanted. Checkered Flag had several postings and Carl answered my email request. When I contacted him, he was eager to assist and searched the lot for the ones I requested, providing the cars details. He stayed late the day I called to meet him and he had everything ready when I arrived for a test drive. The car was perfect and I put a deposit that night on the settled price. The following day, I showed him several internet postings with a lower price and he honored the ad, giving me the new price. Overall, good folks to work with right down to the prep guys who shined me up and got me out the door.

I went to several dealerships in the area and this was by FAR the best one that I personally had visited. Carl was very friendly and was willing to take the time to find a vehicle that fit our budget and that truely best suited me and my family. Since we purchased our vehicle I have noticed more vehicles sold by Checkered Flag than any other local dealership. Which tells me that they are a dealer where their customers value them as much as they value their customers. I would recommend this dealership to anyone, especially my friends!

It has been a great driving experience with the 2008 Honda Accord and I am looking forward to enjoy even more the next 3 years. Carl is very customer friendly oriented salesperson and he always makes it very easy for me to drive away with a new car. I enjoyed doing business with him and I hope to continue to be a repeat customer. I will definately recommend him to my friends and family to purchase their new vehicle from Carl. He is great!Sincerely,Bambos Charalambous

I would use this dealership again to buy another vehicle.

Brad was very helpful, informative without being pushy. I never felt the process was rushed even though I made my decison to buy within 48 hours of my intial visit. He also educated me on new leasing options, which I ended up going with.I very much like my Honda CRV.This is the 5th Honda I have owned but the other 4 were for my daughters, not me but I did see how well they worked and kept thier value longer than other so called like makes. This also gave me some experience with Checker Flag's service, which I'll also rate as very good. I gave the "price" rateing a 4, only because on ouwld alwasy like to have paid less.Doug Prete 412-0127

The staff at Checkered Flag is extremely professional and straight forward. My wife and I couldn't have been any more pleased with the deal we received on our two vehicles & with the customer service. I'd strongly recommend Checkered Flag Honda to anybody looking for a quality product at a great price and the service that comes along with it.

He helped answering questions about the car and its features, the buying process, and was easy to talk to and we did not at any point fee pressured to buy. It was a great experience and the very next day we can and bought the car! I highly recommend him and the dealership to friends and family. The staff even all welcomed me back in three days later and it was very nice to be remembered! Cannot be happier with the experience!

Gary Levine was by far one of the most helpful, sincere, and professional individuals Ive ever had the pleasure of dealing with. i just got back from deployment and was in the market for a new car, so i shopped around and finally showed up at the Checkered Flag Honda dealership in Norfolk, VA. I was greeted warmly and never doubted for a second that he was trying to make me happy, not just make a sale. He gave me a Great price and explained in detail the contract, the car was driven right to the front door for me, Clean as the day it left the factory floors and he has called twice since i bought the car 2 days ago checking to see if i had any questions about anything and i was enjoying my new car. If you want a Honda, Go to Gary.

To sum it all up....It would be the customer service went above and beyond their needs to provide the best and courtesy service rendered. The whole staff extended their hours of operation to make sure we closed the deal.

Anyone who buys a car should go see Vernon. This is the 4th car I've bought from him and he is unlike any "salesperson" you can imagine. I consider him family. He has always looked out for my husband and I in our car buying. I just bought a Honda Pilot. Not only do I absolutely LOVE my new vehicle, but the experience was great. Vernon got me top dollar for my trade and got me a great interest rate. If you're looking for a new or used vehicle, you MUST see Vernon.

We purchased a Honda pilot and worked with Bo Wang. He was excellent. He was very knowledgeable but not pushy. We had a price in mind when we went there and they came very close to it. I would like to say that the Finance Manager was one of the friendliest I have dealt with and I have dealt with some who are very unpleasant and make you feel guilty about not buying the extended warranty which we did buy in this case. Our overall experience was first rate. I have no problem recommending this dealer to others.

By far the best car buying experience we have ever had. Courteous, professional, no pressure staff who was patient to let us test drive two models, and then take one of them back out for a second test drive so my husband could drive it. We ended up purchasing a Pilot and have been nothing but pleased with it. Benjamin is a highly knowledgable salesman who will point out all the bells and whistles the vehicles have but is also respectful of someone who is trying to be a bit more conservative. He was willing to stay late to accomodate our work schedules and spent extra time explaining how to use all the cars features. Brandon was great as well. He worked with us to try and keep our payments in the range we were looking for. And the finance person was thorough in explaining warranty offers but did not push us into buying the highest priced one. We will whole heartedly recommend Checkered Flag Honda, and be sure to ask for Benjamin. Keep up the good work, your customers greatly appreciate it.

Normally I detest going to a dealership to buy a new car. However, my recent purchase at Checkered Flag Honda was a very pleasant experience -- especially dealing with Eugene Smith. I felt that Eugene was doing all he could to give me the best offer he could. We also had a few minor hick-ups but Eugene was right there ready to solve all problems. I would recommend Eugene to anyone wanting to buy a new Honda.

I recently bought a new 2010 Honda Civic from this dealership. This was my first car ever bought new, and from a dealership. I had an amazing experience with the people here and I would highly recommend everyone to come here. The sales people are also very funny while maintaining high customer service standards, and putting you up on a pedestal. I was in and out in about two hours, driving away in my new car. Even after I had a concern with the automatic door unlocks, I emailed my representative and was promptly contacted with an email AND a personal phone call, saying that he left my step by step instructions on how to do it, and was also willing to walk me through it over the phone, as if that wasn't enough, he even offered to COME TO ME, to fix the issue; although we got it working over the phone. A+++ I would highly recommend!!!!

This is the 2nd time i've bought a vehicle at this dealership. This time I had an unfortunate experience. The finance guy figured my trade in wrong and I went through the entire process, check in hand at the table , when the deal fell through. To top it off, he was rude. After a few days I took a deep breath and went back. My salesman, Vernon Belford , was terrific. He was thorough with lots of attention to detail. Very personable with a great sense of humor. He is a consummate professional who knows Honda products like the back of his hand and I highly recommend him. Also kudos to Stacey and Chad in finance. In the end, I have a great car and will come back to this dealership for service and future sales.

I ended up buying a used Element from Hall Honda yesterday.I look forward to good support from Checkered Flag for the CR-V and maybe the Element.

Mr. Anderson is an excellent salesman. We walked in and in less than 2 hours walked out with a new vehicle. Everything went off without a hitch. I would definitely recommend Mr. Anderson and Checkered Flag without hesitation. This is the second vehicle we have purchase with Checkered Flag and we will continue to do business in the future.

I have bought, two Honda products from Checkered Flag Honda in Virginia Beach , Virginia. Both times I bought from Carl Dyson and he is simply great. Last Saturday, February 27th, 2010 I bought a Honda Accord LX from Checkered Flag. Carl Dyson takes the time to show you products and options while really listening to what the customer is interested in. He also keeps all of the financial pieces of the transaction right on the table with no surprises. He really makes car buying a simple , straightforward experience in a very open and honest manner. Truthfully, I went back to Checkered Flag Honda vs. some other Honda Dealership simply because of my salesperson Carl Dyson. Simply a perfect car buying experience. Norm Maas, Norfolk, VA

I visited three other Honda dealers in Tidewater before going to Checkered Flag Honda on Va. Beach Blvd. This dealership is a quality organization from top to bottom. My salesman John Hall was great, he was helpful and not pushy. I had done all the research on the vehicle before arriving and was surprised to get the deal done easily, without the back and forth, I need to talk to my manager BS over and over again.Brandon was friendly and honest. The finance manager was great, she was a pleasure to deal with and my whole experience at this dealership reminded me that all dealers are not the same. Most people have experienced what it is like to be taken advantage of while purchasing a vehicle. For that reason no one looks forward to buying a vehicle. My experience was better than I could have imagined. A true no BS experience from this group who really know how the car business is supposed to operate, honestly. The best compliment I could give them is, the next time I need a vehicle I will talk with them first.

Benjamin is by far the best car Sales Person I have ever encountered. Gave me no pressure, kind, polite, always had a smile on his face. He stayed with me till the very end. Other sales person will work with two or more other customers at the same time. He really worked in meeting what I wanted and beyond that. I look forward to my next experience with him.

Dennis was attentive and worked to answer all of our questions and concerns. I would recommend him to friends or family, my parents were even thinking about purchasing a car from him because of the deal I received. There was a small scratch on the car when we purchased it and it was too late that afternoon to have it fixed, Dennis even offered to pick up the car to drive it to the dealer to have it fixed 2 days later.

I shopped around to several dealerships and priced the vehicle I was looking for. After some negotiations over email I choose several dealerships to visit. The night before my visit one dealership emailed me with a price increase so I decided not to visit them. When I arrived at Checkered Flag I was met by Bo Wang a salesman there. I asked for one of the sales managers and was warmly greeted by Chad Frick. I explained my previous correspondence with his dealership and he was aware of the price and model I was looking for. While they did not have my first color choice they did have my second, with the desired equipment. The transaction was quick and painless and the processing took only 30 minutes. I found the sales team at Checkered Flag to be helpful and courteous and would recommend them to anyone looking for a Honda car.

Our overall car buying experience at Honda Checkered Flag was definitely superior compared to other dealers in the area. Specifically, your customer service and willingness to make a great deal cannot even compare to Hall Honda. I would definitely recommend Honda Checkered Flag to any of my friends who are in the market for a new Honda. We were quickly able to reach an agreement on the car and price and subsequently purchased the car within a short period of time. The car was delivered to us in flawless condition and without any issues. The whole process only required about 2 hours of our time from start to finish.

Checkered Flag Honda of Virginia Beach Va. handled my long distance (Southern Nj) online vehicle purchase with professionalism and attention. On the delivery date salesperson Ben went well beyond that realm of the ordinary salesperson with a complete orientation on my car custom tailored for me. He even explained and demonstrated features to both my girlfriend and myself that my girlfriends salesperson overlooked when she bought her Honda Civic elsewhere.The finance officer offered options but did not push them. He explained in detail the benefits of different option packages and financing costs, but was neutral to my ultimate decision.The service waiting area was inviting and clean as was the delivery bay. They are open late on Saturdays. All the employees seemed happy on my tours. The bathrooms were fresh and attractive. There was plenty of customer parking.This dealership is Highly recommended by myself thru personal experience for all these attributes and yet still remains price competitive to others who offer far less service or concern for your dollar.The drive was well worth the experience from start to finish. The 2010 Hybrid Civic was exactly what I wanted and as advertised. All the i's were dotted and the t's crossed. I only wish you folks were 250 miles closer. Perhaps you could come up this way and show a few of our local dealers how to achieve the 5 star experience for their customers. thanx again.

Salesman who accompanied me on test drive was cooperative and he did his best to give me advice and offered me an excellent service. He and the manager gave me a fair recommandation. I felt great for my car eventhough I dont like the payment and the color.

Overall it was a good experience, our dealer Eugene was very friendly and helpful. I gave a four for overall because the process took a little longer than comfortable, but that is probably due to the computers being excessively slow. Price was okay, they are competitive with other dealers, plus I got a better interest rate than my bank.

My overall experience with Denise Anderson was great. I was referred to him by Ms. Derika. When I walked in the dealership he was nice, honest, eager to help me the best way he could, respectful, funny and overall conducted himself very sucessful as a buisness man. I would definetly refer him to someone else. I told him what I could afford and what I was looking for and he didn't waste my time. I felt comfortable working with him and new I was making the right choice when I brought my Honda civic 2008 from Mr. Anderson. I didn't feel I was being taken advantage of because I am a female. He is a very good sales person.Thank youV/RD'Nashia Jenkinssimmons

I went in to get out of a SUV I hated and wasnt interested in anything in particular as long as there was a ipod connection I was ok with it and a little bit of power. I hated everything I was initially shown then he pulled a car from the back that hadnt even been inspected yet and I loved it. He said he was good at what he did and he truly was I left with a car that I loved and was happy to drive off in instead of one I'll cringe to pay the note on. Great guy to work with!

Very impressed with Ray Brown, our salesman at Checkered Flag Honda in Virginia Beach. He was very knowledgeable of all the used cars that we looked at and he did not "hover" when my wife and I wanted to be alone and talk. He spent nearly three hours with us and eventually sold us a certified used Honda.....which I am very happy with.

All Checkered Flag Honda sales staff are superb, but I have found no one at this dealership who can top Sales Consultant Dennis Anderson for professionlism, customer service and integrity. Over the past 9 years, I have dealt with Mr. Anderson on several new and used car purchases, and trust me, no one does it better. Our most recent purchase began with a different dealer in the Checkered Flag family (Checkered Flag Audi Porsche) because the car my son wanted was only carried on the Checkered Flag Audi Porsche inventory. Dennis Anderson did not have to help us because there wasn't anything in it for him. However, he gave us all the information we asked for even though the car wasn't at his location. He also made sure we had a solid contact at the Checkered Flag Audi Porsche dealership to ensure we were taken care. Once we had checked out the car and decided we wanted to purchase it, Dennis stepped up to the plate and worked his magic with Checkered Flag Audi Porsche management to coordinate the transaction. He left his own dealership and drove in rush hour traffic to meet us at the Checkered Flag Audi Porsche dealership to sort out all the paperwork to make sure everything went quickly and efficiently. Of note, there were several other potential buyers for the car we wanted, and Dennis used his skills in making sure we had our purchase contract registered in the Checkered Flag Audi Porsche system before anyone else. Dennis also stuck around another 90 minutes to make sure our transaction sailed through. All this time he could have been at his dealership with other potential customers; however he was determined to make sure we were taken care of as "his" customer. Dennis finally installed our new license plates on the car and we were on our way. It is rare to find someone in the auto buying world who you can ask candid questions and expect to receive an honest and candid response. If Dennis Anderson tells you something, you can take it to the bank. My sons are also loyal fans of Dennis Anderson because they know he will be fair, open, and honest and advise them on options that work best for them and save them money in the process. When is the last time you ran into someone like Dennis Anderson? Probably a very long time is my guess. He is from the old school which teaches integrity and honesty; values which seem to escape many other people in the sales business. Checkered Flag is very fortunate to have Dennis Anderson as a member of their team. I highly recommend anyone check him out and see for yourself; you won't regret doing business with him.

Mr. Mungaithi was very knowledgeable of the products he is selling. He was very fiendly and courteous. The one thing that we were really satisfied with was that Mr. Ben just did not hand us the keys to drive away, he showed us the many details of how to work the buttons in the Honda Pilot. (He could have just sent us home with the book because it was almost 8 PM when we arrived at the dealership to pick up the Honda Pilot.) Mr. Ben even had a notepad where there were page numbers of where to find the most important "stuff". He is a triple A+ sales consultant. We had purchased different makes & models of vehicles before from other dealerships, but the last three were all from Checkered Flag. We have not had an experience like what we had with Mr. Ben. We were in fact a little sad as we were driving away because we know we won't see him for a while. Mr. Ben exudes that "father figure" that you can really trust him with your life. Mr. Ben is definitely a great asset to Checkered Flag. We also had an excellent service from the Finance Manager. We surely hope that Mr. Ed Snyder will personally be notified of this survey, we want him to take care of Mr. Ben because we are definitely going back to purchase a fourth vehicle in the near future... Angelo will be asking for Mr. Ben. Our sincerest gratitude for the excellent service,Angelita & Miguel w/ Angelo & Anthony

If you are looking for a new Honda go see John " Mr. Magoo" Hall at Checkered Flag Honda. Don't waste your time going anywhere else. A few years ago I bought a new Ridgeline from him. I had gone to several other dealers when my neighbors, who had bought an Element from him, told me to go see Mr. Magoo. His service and price sealed the deal. Recently a few days before Christmas my neighbor went with my wife and I to buy a new CRV. We went to another dealer and got the runaround and went back to see Mr. Magoo. Again he was a great help and my neighbors bought a Fit Sport and we bought a CRV EX-L. Mr. Magoo is straightforward and very helpful. Also the finance manager was very pleasant and efficient. We were in and out in no time. Everyone at the dealership was genuinely friendly and thanked us for our business.

I was treated very respectfully by everyone I encountered, on the phone and in person. Everyone was very helpful and friendly. My trade-in amount was extremely generous and took in to account the recent service bill I'd encountered. The staff worked to make sure I got exactly the car I wanted, including having the specific color of the model I wanted transferred from a neighboring dealership. It was ready and waiting for me (and cleaned up and shining beautifully!) well before I needed it as I was going out of town for the holidays. I would definitely recommend anyone looking for a car to go to Checkered Flag Honda and ask for Tank!

Sales process was fairly easy, but 24 hours after purchasing the vehicle, I noticed that there were scratches and the rear taillight was broken. It would have been nice to have the vehicle looked over BEFORE I took possession. When I picked up the vehicle, it was raining and dark outside. Now that I have traded in my vehicle, I need to bring the new vehicle back for service and be down to one vehicle in the household.

This buying experience was probably the best I've had. Ray Brown, working with his management, very quickly got to the deal I was looking for when I walked in the door. I've bought from Ray before and he greeted me when I pulled into the dealership.Witin 30 minutes, including the test drive, I was ready to buy. The next day I was enticed to add a nav system at a good price so I opted for the high-end EX-L V6 Nav model.Everone was friendly and professional...right down to the man who prepped my car. There wasn't even a fingerprint on my black car when I took delivery. Thanks to everyone for making this such a positive experience. We now have three Honda's at my house!

My experience with the Checkered Flag Honda Dealership and specifically with a Mr. Eugene Smith was outstanding. I felt no pressure to purchase the car I came to see from Mr. Smith. In addition, he was very responsive to listening to my purchase price requirements and working with me to get the car I needed at a price which would fit my financial budget. Mr. Smith was also able to assist me in getting excellent financing for purchasing the car. Mr. Smith also arranged to have all the DMV Documents related to the car processed at the dealership. Needless to say in the future my next car purchase will without a doubt be at Checkered Flag Honda through Mr. Smith. I will also be recommending the dealership to my friends in the Virginia Beach area.

Benjamin and I met at the dealerships months before my actual transaction and he was helpful but not pushy, encouraging but not insistent. I told him what I was looking for and he agreed to keep his eyes open for me. I have been in touch with him by phone on a couple of occasions, since I was waiting for an acceptable interest rate before I would purchase. We reconnected by phone when the 2.9% interest rate became available, scheduled a meeting and began the selection and purchase process. Benjamin did not attempt to sell me the more expensive 4WD, when he knew I only needed a FWD: he didn't try to sell me the Navigation and DVD systems when he knew I was not interested in those things. Knowing I transport teenagers and had concerns with the light color cloth seats of my previous CR-V, he recommended the darker leather interior...which made perfect sense. He showed - and had me demonstrate understanding of - every feature of the Pilot, inside and out. (I set a station on the radio, set proper time on the clock, changed the temp option on the heater, set temp heat for the seat, positioned the side mirrors, adjusted the seat, etc.) He explained every facet of the purchase process, indicating he knew I had gone through the process before, but just wanting to be certain I had no questions or concerns along the way. I am thoroughly pleased with my new SUV and have Benjamin to thank for my comfort with all its bells and whistles. His service to me was so complete and comforting, I will be looking for him in 3 years when I trade this one for the next one. My sincere and absolute thanks to him for his kindness and his attention.

John Hall was great. From the moment we arrived he was courteous, friendly, and listened to what we were looking for. He did not waste our time with the usual back and forth during negotiations and made a great offer right from the start. After shopping around, just to make sure we covered our bases, we found that the offer that we got from Checkered Flag and John was by far the best and couldn't be beat. He defintely has your best interests in mind and will do everything he can to get you the best deal out there. I recommend Chackered Flag Honda and specifically John Hall. You will leave the dealer feeling good about the decision you made and confident that you got a good deal on your car.

I've always been in a time crunch when I've come to buy a new car and checkered flag makes what I want happen in the time frame I need. They where completely honest and didn't try to "sell" me. I did extensive research before I came and I know that the people at checkered flag are the best people to buy a car from. I never have any regrets from buying with checkered flag and thier service is exceptional.

We were not actually buying the car on Oct. 03. However, when my husband and I were approached by Eric Rogers, he showed us and explained the features of the car we wanted to buy. He was helpful and even introduced us to Mike de Guzman who was also instrumental that we bought the car. It was a very good buying experience and we will recommend this dealership to friends.

In searching for a new Honda Oydessey I spent about a week visiting local dealerships and searching on-line for the best price. Through hours of market research and assistance provided by the USAA Buying Program I knew exactly what I wanted and what I was willing to pay for it. Of the four dealerships I visited and two others that I worked with over the phone Checkered Flag Honda was the only one capable of getting the price where I wanted it to be. Eugene Smith worked tirelessly to negotiate the best deal for the new vehicle and to get me top dollar for my trade. Once negotiations were through Checkered Flag Honda's selling process was very simple and quick. I was out the door in less than 30 minutes. Eugene had the new vehicle prepared and contacted my wife to arrange pick-up the following day. Picking up the new vehicle was also quick, a reflection of Eugene and Checkered Flag Honda's dedication to customer service.Based on this experience I highly recommend Checkered Flag Honda and Eugene Smith to anyone shopping for a new vehicle.

Our experience with Checkered Flag in the purchase of our 2010 Honda Odyssey was 5-star all the way. This is a straightforward dealership with a no nonsense approach. Their customer service focus is exceptional. After a very bad previous experience with another local dealership we're delighted to find Checkered Flag. Our salesperson, Mr. Eric Rogers, was outstanding. He was extremely knowledgeable about the vehicle we were interested in and efficient in every aspect of completing the deal. These strengths, coupled with his entertaining personality and customer pleasing attitude, have made us dedicated Checkered Flag fans. We'll certainly return to Checkered Flag and Eric for future purchases and will highly recommend this team to our friends, family, and co-workers. You can definitely count on a straightforward and fair purchase with them.

Experience in car selection and pricing was excellent. We had good support from Mr. Hall and all his managers. Mr. John Hall was one of the main reasons we purchased from Checkerd Flag.Only complaint I have is the waiting time to actually pay for the car to pick up the car. I was paying in Cash for the car but the finance person kept me waiting for more than 2-hours because there was someone else haggling ahead of me..

John was friendly and efficent. He greeted me outside, helped me through the entire sales process and did not make me feel pressured for the sale. Once I had purchased the vehicle, he stayed late, after his shift had ended, to make sure he was there when I picked up my CRV. He helped me move my items from one car to the new. He was able to transfer all of my stickers too :)

We were very pleased with the service that we received from Dennis Anderson. He was very informative and provided us with options. We were in the market for a car, not expecting to purchase one right away, however, we found exactly what we were looking for and the price was right. We can see why Dennis has been with Honda for so many years. If any of our friends are looking for a car, we will definitely send them to Honda.

When I arrived at Checkered Flag on Saturday morning to just browse around I was greeted by one of the most intersting men I have ever met. MR. Ben Mung'aithi greeted my wife, my mother-in-law and myself like we were old college friends who had not see each other in many years. Upon hearing that we were just looking and not interested in buying at this time, Ben placed no pressure on us. We casually walked around looking at the inventory of automobiles on the lot. Upon our departure my wife stated: "I was very impressed with that gentelmen." and believe me my wife is hard to impress.

Ben was patient with us and answered every question we had. He showed us numerous cars and when we finally settled on the car we were going to buy, he worked into the late hours of the night to help us get all the paperwork done. I believe the time we spent negotiating with him allowed us to reach a very reasonable price on the vehicle.

I gave the staff at Checkered Flag all "5s" because they made my car buying experience peaceful. The first dealership I visited played too many games leaving me feeling tired and uneasy. However, when I walked in Checkered Flag, I told Dennis what I was looking for and the price I was willing to pay. "No problem", he replied. And it was NO PROBLEM. Chad and I were able to come up with a price and financing WE BOTH agreed upon which immediately placed me in a state of contentment and ease. Aryq ensured that I was knowledgeable about the Navigation System and that I felt completely comfortable using it. The service team (David C)added the accessories to my car within a reasonable amount of time and handled the process very professionally. I am absolutely in love with my new car and I feel comfortable returning to Checkered Flag for service and recommending people to purchase a vehicle from them. Hopefully I have answered the "why" and these gentlemen can get the wonderful recognition that they deserve.

Ray Brown was recommended by my daughter who purchased a vehicle from him in mid July. He was friendly and helpful. He offered to have us drive every vehicle that we looked at and provided no pressure. We even went home to think about it and he was just as friendly when we left. Buying a car at Checkered Flag Honda was a great experience. Be sure to ask for Ray Brown.

Great experience while perchasing my first car.

They were all very knowledge able and I appreciate all the time and help that they gave to me.

We went to purchase a civic. I work hard everyday for my money, and I expect to be treated with respect when I spend almost 18,000 dollars. They fumbled the process up from the start to the end. We worked with Brandon the first day and it seemed to go well. Then we came back on Saturday and we felt that Chad was rushing us out of the showroom because he didnt have enough salesman to help us.Brandon was not working that day. My wife had called Chad prior to going in on Saturday an he said he would be able to help us. When we left Chad said he would call us on Monday to get a down payment, he never called because he went on vacation and didnt delegate this to anyone. My wife then called on Wednesday and spoke to Ryan to find out what was going on, Ryan said he could run the application but he was not able to finish the deal. We would have to talk to his boss Mike to finish the deal. At this point, we actually had someone who cared about us.We went in on Thursday to talk to Robert to get the deal done.By this point I had pretty much given up on the customer service I recieved from Checkered Flag. Robert was helpful in negotiating the price, but I seemed to be annoyed at all of the other duties Robert was doing while we were negotiating a price. If I am about to spend that much money I expect have undivided attention to the process. Maybe I am different than everyone else, but that is what I expect. We were promised that the car would be ready at 3:30pm on Friday. We went to pickup the car the next day after the paperwork was signed. We pulled onto the lot and the car was still wrapped in plastic. They had the car that morning and it had no even been touched. Brandon was suppose to make sure it had been detailed. My wife had to go back to the dealership to get the car detailed later that day. It is a waste of our time, for someone who couldnt insure that the car was ready when promised.

Carl is a very helpful man he got me want i wanted in a timely manner. also he has great skills he knows what he is talking about when it comes to buying a car. in the amount of time spent with him getting my car i was always informed of what was going on and did not get left out of the loop. he also got me the financing that i need with payments that i can afforded. in saying if you are in the market for car may it be new or used please check out the great team at Checkered Flag Honda and ask for Carl Dyson.

Mr. Mungaithi was a very jovial, and intelligent salesperson. Overall, I would say he was effective in selling the important points of the vehicle. If there was one area that I would recommend to become an outstanding salesperson, it would be the attention to certain details. I sometimes had to ask or remind of him of certain details. My experience with Mr. Mungaithi was positive and I would seek him in the future.

I have been car shopping for awhile and have looked in several dealerships. I have been disappointed with the service of many dealerships but as soon as I went into Checkered Flag Honda I could tell I would be satisfied. Eugene Smith was my sales representative and was very knowledgeable and showed me around and helped me find the car that was perfect for me. The whole staff was great and if someone were looking for a car they would be make a HUGE mistake not stopping by Checkered Flag Honda.

The overall feel of the dealership at Checkered Flag Honda is that everyone gets along well and enjoys working there and everyone there works together. Each sales person helps out the other which is great. All of the people there seem very genuine unlike your stereotypical car salesman which is what I liked. I shopped for cars for a few weeks and went to various dealerships and Checkered Flag was by far the best overall experience. They made me feel right at home right from the get go unlike their competitors. I would recommend them to everyone and will definitely be back in the future.

My wife and I bought a 2009 Pilot from Checkered Flag after going to every other dealer on the Southside. Checkered Flag met every one of my expectations in regards to price AND service that none of the other dealers could meet. They work FAST. They had us in and out in no time which was crucial since we had our 10 month old daughter with us. I had negotiated a price with another dealer and was set to buy from them at that price. On the way to the dealer to purchase the car, I stopped by CF, just to see what they had available. (I checked online and they didn't have the color we wanted). Not only did Chad (Sales Manager) and Eugene (Sales) find the color/model we wanted, Chad beat the price I previous negotiated with the other dealer right off the bat (without even telling him the figure). During this whole process, my wife and I never felt any pressure to buy. If you hate the high pressure, gimmicky car dealerships, and I'm sure you do, stop by Checkered Flag Honda. By far, my best buying experience to date.

Customer Service: I arranged for the purchase of a 2009 Honda Civic via the internet. Mr. Benjamin Mung'aithi was assigned as my sales person and he did an outstanding job of ensuring the car was ready for the road and the paperwork was ready to sign. The car was waiting on me when I arrived with a full tank of gas. In and out quick, just as I requested. Ben is your man! Friendliness: Mr. Benjamin Mung'aithi is the friendliness car sales person I have ever met. I have purchased eight new vehicles and by far Ben was the friendliness. I enjoyed his rumor.Overall: Chad, the manager, was nice and seemed to care about the sale. We had to discuss the price somewhat and Chad seem to be honest and open about the issues. Both Ben and Chad did not rush me or push me out the door. The purchase was a good time, I had fun!Price: I had an on-line purchasing certificate from a different dealership that offered a very low price that other Honda dealerships in the immediate area would not touch. Checkered Flag Honda did right by me. I appreciate their efforts to get me in this Civic at such a great price.

I was originally looking to purchase a used '01 Honda Accord from Vernon who was very helpful in that aspect. I ended up looking to buy a new Honda Civic after looking into the pricing options. Brandon was very helpful and answered all my questions to the best of his ability. His patience, itegrity, and overall good demeanor finalized my decision to purchase the car at Checkered Flag Honda. Vernon should also get a pat ont he back for the customer service that he provided me.

I went in to refinance my wife's leased car. She has had the Accord for three years and it only has thirteen thousand miles. We could not justify replacing it. The process went as the Salesman said it would. That is what I count as doing a great job. It only took about forty-five minutes to complete the whole process. Thanks.

I had a good experience with Checkered Flag and Dennis Anderson. I shopped a few other dealers before I decided to go with Checkered Flag. My family has bought several cars from the dealership in the past. The Sales and Finance staff was great. The only small issue was when I did some research at home on Edmunds.com, I read through a discussion forum and realized I might have gotten the car a little cheaper if I pushed a little more. Overall very happy with the service from Dennis and the rest of Checkered Flags staff.

After twelve years, I decided it was time to replace my '98 CRV with a new one (a 2009 Ex-L with Navigation System). I knew what features I wanted and shopped at all three local Honda dealerships. Vernon was by far the most helpful, kind, knowledgeable and willing to negotiate of all of the salespeople with whom we spoke. He was willing to go out of his way to help us find the perfect car and didn't pressure us to take a different style or color (that he had on the lot) or try to over charge us in any way. Once the car arrived, he made the purchasing process easy. He was extremely willing, able and helpful in teaching me to use the new components (the navigation and music system in particular) and had gone through all of the manuals for the car and highlighted and dog-eared the most relevant pages so the information would be easily accessible. I would highly recommend him and Checker Flag Honda to anyone.

Ray was fantastic, as was his manager, Mike. Ray was really friendly, & after intending to spend the whole day hopping around looking at used cars (Checkered Flag Honda was my first stop), Mike ended up giving me a deal I couldn't pass up on the VW Golf I went there to look at in the first place (& fell in love with). A few hours after I arrived home with my Golf, Ray called to tell me they found a better APR with my bank. Excellent customer service! I definitely recommend them!

We really enjoyed the no haggle pricing that your dealership offered and felt that the team members had our best interest at heart. I did find a lower price online for a lease of the same vehicle but know that pricing varies from state to state and dealership. I would definitely recommend this dealership to my friends and family members and am happy with the overall experience. I plan to continue purchasing my Hondas at Checkered Flag in Va Beach but will do more research on prices the next time I come. Thanks for a great experience!

Vernon was extremely helpful. This was my first automobile purchase and he made the process very simple. He answered all of my questions and preempted many of them. I would recommend Vernon (and Checkered Flag Honda) to anyone looking to buy an automobile.

I did have some problems at the Dealership but none of them were Dennis's fault. He did work with me on the price due to my poor credit and he talked to the finance manager to get a lower price overall. The problems I had were that I had send them the documents in the morning that had all the pay, contact, and residence information them and they had not done anything with it when I got to the dealership for my appointment. So we had to start from scratch in filling out paperwork that could have already been done. The biggest issue that I had was that after the Finance manager and I had agreed on a final monthly payment he had me go to the girl that does all the paperwork and she tried to add the gap insurance and another warranty to the 2008 honda that still had a warranty. I had to argue with her a little bit and it pretty much irritated me. I was getting the impression that they were not going to stick to the deal that we had agreed to and so I threatened to walk out and then she backed off.I know everyone is trying to make some money, but once a deal is made that is it. She basically said it was the finance manager's fault or that he couldn't tell me about the other stuff. I didn't by that at all. I do think that even though my credit could be better they could have given me a better interest rate. I guess it was a good compromise overall, but they were pushing pretty hard. My insurance company USAA said they would refinance it for me and get me a better deal. As far as salesmen go, I would go back to see Dennis anytime. He did a great. And after the sale, one of the other salesman that were not busy helped me figure out how the Element seats worked.I do look forward to seeing the guys down there again.

Ben was an excellent salesperson. He was extremely responsive to our needs and worked closely with us to assure that we were able to obtain the vehicle we desired. Overall this was one of the most positive auto purchase experience I have had in the twenty plus years I have been purchasing cars. Thank you.

The Checkered Flag members were as nice as they could be. They were patient, not pushy and extremely helpful. They even cheerfully matched a competitor's price in an effort to "earn my business"; that was impressive! I am happy that I bought the car there and would recommend the dealership again.

Internet sales are great. We pre-negotiated the vehicle, came in, drove it, and bought it. No haggling - everyone happy. The Internet sales staff was awesome and then the team we met at the dealership was awesome too! KUDOS to the people at Checkered Flag Honda!

This dealership was FANTASTIC! After stopping by other dealerships, Checkered Flag really worked with me to make me happy with what I wanted. They were awesome! I explained to them the car I was looking for, and even though the dealership was about to close for the night, they still got the car out for me and negotiated a fantastic deal for me. I'm very happy.

I gave the rating that I did because Paul and everyone else at Checkered Flag Honda were very knowledgeable and helpful when selling me my new car. Paul knew everything I needed to know, and even told me things I would never have thought about. I felt like I was well taken care of, and that my business was appreciated. My experience at Checkered Flag really solidified my decision to buy a Honda car.

Eugene Smith gave us a wonderful "no pressure" buy at Checkered Flag. My husband and I were pleased with this, because we were upfront with Eugene and told him when the time was right we would buy. We had been to other dealerships, and were getting constantly harrassed. Super Bowl Sunday we had stopped by Checkered Flag and met Eugene. We discussed several options. We told him in later weeks we would come in for a test drive. About six weeks passed, and we decided to stop and look again. Eugene came in earlier than scheduled one Saturday to help us. That day we were in awe with the new Honda Insight. He wanted us to take it home for the night to make sure it was the car we wasnted. The next day we returned preparing to buy the car, when we saw my now beautiful Civic on the showroom floor. When the normal person would have been aggravated with the change of mind, Eugene stood by our side, and told us to test drive the Civic to weigh all options. I am so happy we made the decision to go with the Civic and Checkered Flag. Keep up the good work, and best of luck in the future Eugene!

Carl was a real professional. We enjoyed working with him. My wife has taken the FIT away from me already, she likes the car so much. Carl was very knowledgeable about the car, helped us with the few required choices. We prefer not having a plethora of choices, but just a few key choices to make.Everyone we met at the dealership was friendly, not pushy. The car we chose is pretty popular, so there was not too much flexibility. That actually makes life easier than endless haggling.Delivery was the only issue - despite bringing a check, it took over two hours to get to the F&I guy to get the car. Either an appointment system or a realistic estimate of the wait would have made us happier.

Ok to start this is my 4th car from CF. I like my dealer (Go Vernon). He is prompt, on point, educated, friendly, honest, but must of all kind. He walks me through everything and listens to all that I have to say. Not only that he fights for all things due. I appreciate all of the CF family, from finance to the parts! They are all wonderful. I am so happy to be in a another new car from this dealership. Honestly I see myself being part of the CF family for life!Christle MiclatVa Beach, VA2010 Honda Insight Hybrid3/30/09

Even though I am in Iraq, Paul Sudo and the sales team at Checkered Flag Honda took great care and consideration for my situation. My wife and I even changed our minds a few times about the type of car we wanted but Paul Sudo and his staff were not bothered in the least. They were always helpful and upfront with me. I recommend Checkered Flag Honda to anyone looking for a dealer with courtesy and candor.

Bo Wang was the sales person I worked with at Checkered Flag Honda. He gave us our space as we browsed colors, options, etc. He was very patient, knowledgeable and honest. This is definitely a better dealership AND experience compared to Hall. I felt welcomed and not rushed as I have at past dealerships.

Benjamin provided the best new car sales experience I have ever had! He demonstrated the highest professional standards, and was pleasant and objective throughout, shepherding me through the choices in the Honda new car line. The sales manager on duty during my initial visit (Sean) was also very friendly and professioanl, providing timely follow up to a couple of questions the next day. Tommy provided professional and courteous back-up to let me test drive the car during a day off for Benjamin. (Great back-up without the normal overtones of competition between sales people.) Whatever sales management method Tommy and Ben are using, it works to the benefit of the customer! The finance team (names?) addressed all my questions and efficiently worked their way through a technical issue regarding registration and titling of the vehicle in a family trust account. In total, the team was superb all the way through finance and close.

Our experience at Checkered Flag Honda was fantastic. We immediately felt welcomed, and there was no pressure to buy like we had experienced at other dealerships. Dennis was helpful and courteous. We walked in thinking we would just be shopping around and left with a car a few hours later.

Eugene was great! He listened to what I wanted and found it for me. He worked hard to assure that I was happy and satisfied. Eugene even went out of his way to provide me with transporation to and from the dealership. I am very pleased with my experience at Checkered Flag Honda and I would definately refer friends and family.

Did my research online and finally decided to go with Checkered Flag Honda because they matched my best price found with destination included. Their processing fee was a bit high, but manageable. All personnel dealt with me in a professional and courteous manner. The process from start to finish was a bit long but again, that's expected when visiting a dealership. My visit was no worse than any other visit I've had with dealers. Ray (salesman) is a very nice gentlemen, although a bit of a slow hunt and peck typer on the keyboard. But he did manage to keep me occupied during the "wait" times (i.e. vehicle prep, and credit check.) All in all, a pleasant experience for me. I rated quality of work based upon the vehicle prep (it looked immaculate upon delivery to me and the price I rated high because I received decent value for my trade and walked out the door with my new Pilot near $7,000 under MSRP.

Mr. Carl Dyson assisted me in buying a new Honda Accord. He went above and beyond by handling many technical issues so that I could get the car quickly. Mr. Christian Hearns assisted my with the financial aspects of the transaction, and was helpful, courteous and professional in demeanor.Overall this dealership continues to be top notch.This is the fourth Honda I have purchased from Checked Flag, and each transaction has been great!

Dennis is a fantastic car salesman. I actually only came to this dealership because I was getting an oil change. Any salesman that can get you to buyout your lease when you came there just for an oil change, is definitely on the road to success. The way I was greeted, to the 'follow-up' phone calls, to the overall customer service, was outstanding. I really appreciate the humanized selling process. I didn't feel like I was being played or man-handled (if you will). I am ecstatic about my new/used car. When it's time for me to upgrade, Dennis Anderson will absolutely be my sales person. I appreciate all that he's done and look forward to doing business with Honda in the future (in any capacity).

I choose to take my niece to Checkered Flag to purchase her first car because of the great experience I had when I bought my Toyota Camry. I wanted her to experience a positive and professional atmosphere and to be backed by a warranty. I wanted her to interact with a dealership that would work with her and help her to obtain her first car. I was very pleased with the hard work of sale representative Arqy Rodgers and the financial representative Kristi Fermil.

I highly recommend Checkered Flag Honda over any Honda Dealers in the Hampton Roads area. From my very first contact with the (Sales Manager) Michael Deguzman, I knew right away this was the dealer that I would buy an Accord from. Mr. DeGuzman assured me that he would beat out the competition and provided me with the information requested and left no questions unanswer. Eric Rogers (Senior Salesman) was very curtious, knowledable on the vehicle, and executed the deal in a fair, prompt, and professional matter. From start to end, I was very impresed with Checkered Flag's team of profesional and will be looking forward to going back to them, when I purchase a car for my wife. This was by far the best car buying experience that I've ever had. Checkered Flag has a team of motivated profesionals that will work hard to imprese you and get your business. If you're in the market for a Honda I highly advice that you visit Checkered Flag Honda before you go somewhere else and when you go in ask for Eric Rogers, he will make you car buying experience a great one. Trust me, you will be glad that you stop there first.

I personaly showed sevice writer the seat bottom was makeing noise when pressed down as when one is getting up from seat bottom. I said may be loose bolt or clip fastneer holding the seat to the frame of the seat. There tech "noise is where lumbard making contact with inner set frame when not being used. also noticed cust has seat cover's on seat's. this can cause problem's if air bags deploy during accident". We removed seat cover's. They could have replaced the whole seat or the seat bottom; but did not make any futher try to fix. I contacted sale person and ask for follow up. Never received any results. I will not buy or use this dealer again.
