I highly recommend DCH Honda in Old Bridge as well as salesman, Michael Cislo. Michael was full of energy and very sweet and helpful! All of the various people I dealt with there throughout my car buying process were great!

Ryan Hoey and Paul Papis recently helped me purchase my new pilot. The car is so smooth. I love it. I also loved the experience I had with those two gentlemen. It was a real pleasure. Thank you.

Jason was so amazing and helpful with my car lease plan. I was worried about car payments and pricing but he did everything he could to make sure I left happy! I couldn't be happier with my experience here & look forward to many more experiences here!!

I do not usually write reviews, but I would like to thank Edward Moy for his patience and non-pushy manner. I found Edward Moy to be very knowledgeable. His polite and professional manner made purchasing a used car less stressful. Thanks again

As a first time customer, I was quickly welcomed right when I step foot inside the dealership. The staff, specifically Ron, was very informative and answered the questions I had so that I can make the best purchase I can. Also being the last customer of the night, nothing felt rushed. Would definitely recommend this dealership and sales rep to friends and family.

Dan did a good job under some setbacks. We waited a long period of time for the car we had reserved to be brought from another lot. Dan was cordial, appreciative of our patience, and understanding. Ordinarily I would not have waited as long as I did weren't for Dan and his engagement in our situation. He kept touching base with us with updates and checked in with management regarding our situation. We were offered food and beverages, and engaged in conversation with Dan as he tried to work through an uncomfortable situation. Nice job Dan as things turned out well, the car is great and finance pushed us through quickly to make up for lost time. Thanks Dan, I would recommend anyone looking for a new Honda to work with Dan.

I do not usually write reviews but my experience at this dealership was worth writing about. I recently purchased a Honda Accord and Civic from Ron within the past few months. My experience in dealing with Ron on my first purchase prompted me to return and purchase a second vehicle. Ron was a pleasure to work with and he made my car buying experience easy and enjoyable. Ron was one of the most professional and honest salesman that I have had dealt with and he is an asset to DCH Honda. I would highly recommend reaching out to Ron if you are in the market for a new vehicle.

I purchased a new Honda from DHC, and the sales rep Erich was extremely thorough and efficient. The process was more complicated because I was purchasing out of state, and my insurance company was not very responsive. However, the team was very knowledgeable and cooperative throughout the entire process

I've purchased four Hondas from Eddie with no problem. If I did have a problem, Eddie resolved qui!ckly. He doesn't just sell cars, he explains things about the car, call you not just to talk about cars and remembers your birthday. Eddie is gifted in telling you straight and being honest...no BS..ing!

My experience with DCH and Daniel Delpriora went very well. Mr Delpriora was very knowledgeable on all models. He very patient spending time to answer all my questions. I was also impressed how he took time to take me to the bank and return my rental. I would definitely recommend DCH and Daniel Delpriora to any future Honda buyers.

We have bought a few cars from this dealer and this rep was the best by far. He hustled, worked efficiently AND the only reason we stayed after a longer than usual wait for a car to arrive from their other lot was because of Daniel's attention to detail & his knowledge. I will only want to deal with him in the future. More sales people should care as much as this big guy! Dan...you the Man!!!

Am extremely glad that I choose DCH Academy Honda for my first car in US, I had been to many dealerships before visiting DCH and I had the best experience . I really want to thank Jasvinder Virdi (Jas) who was my sales advisor and I must admit it was only because of Jasvinder I choose to buy my 1st car from DCH Academy Honda. Employees like Javinder are true assets to the company, he was so patient and guided me through out to find me the Car which I wanted. I purchased a Honda Civic 2016 in July 2016 and its been more than 6 months and I am really enjoying my new car. The after sales service has been extremely good and am really happy for choosing DCH Academy. Again I really want to thank Jasvinder Vidi for his excellent customer service and I have already recommended DCH and Jasvinder for many of my friends and Colleagues in my office. Keep up the great work.

I can honestly say this was the best experience leasing I've ever had. This is my 4th lease at DCH Academy Honda and Jason is by far the best saleman I've dealt with. The entire process took just about 2 hours and I was off in my new car! The leasing process was always stressful for me, but this time it was totally different. The atmosphere was positive and I was treated like a VIP by both Jason and Joe (manager). Thank you Jason for the great experience. I'll definitely be requesting you for my next lease!

From the start, Walter was very friendly, personable, and very helpful. He made us feel very comfortable and was very kind to our 4 year old boy.

I could not even get in the door and I was attacked by at least 5-6 salespeople. I felt like a piece of meat that was going to be ate by a bunch of wolves. Finally someone came up to me and said "what's up boss?". He said I'll handle you and are you ready to buy today. I said no that this was my first day and I just started to look for a new Pilot. He said his name was Jason. As soon as he knew I was not ready to buy that day his attitude changed. He then tried to palm me off on someone else saying that a previous customer who was READY to buy that day just walked in. Is this how you train your people? If so I think you need to train your salespeople in a different matter.

I have recently retired and was looking for a new vehicle for myself. I have bought three other Honda's from DCH in the past so I scheduled a test drive in a new Civic. First of all the size of the Civic is like the old Accord that I had and the features in the EXL are out of this world. Heated seats, heated mirrors, climate control, and the list of extras go's on and on.

Jason Sepulveda is the "BEST" salesman I ever seen you can tell he loves what he does.If you are looking for a honda theres only one place and thats DCH ACADEMY HONDA OLD BRIDGE and the salesman is jason sit down with him for 5 mins and you know its like talking to an old friend. My wife and I were very happy great deal with our honda.In finance is paul very warm in 10 mins we were talking like we knew each other for years.Look im the type of guy that thinks people in car dealers are out to take advantage of people you here stories of dealers and thats why we think the way we do.Not here everything is up front.My wife wanted a red suv none on the lot to be seen before we did the paper work my wife said look out side on a trailer was the car we talked about.In less then 10 mins he had the car we were looking for EXACTLY what we wanted.THIS IS THE PLACE TO BE we work very hard for our money spend it wisely.

The car dealer that I bought the car from (Cassandra) was pretty good. Her manager who came in to close the deal (Vipin) really pissed me off. He was extremely rude and condescending. I will never buy or recommend anyone to buy a car from this place.

I have been buying cars for many years and this has been by far the best experience so far, where the salesman, Jason Sepulveda, was very honest, professional and helpful. He was not "pushy" at all forcing us to buy the vehicle or other products,which is the reason why we bought the vehicle there. The sales process including the financial manager Paul Marques was excellent. I would definitely buy another vehicle from this location again and would recommend anyone who is looking to buy or lease a vehicle to ask for Jason.

I went to DCH Academy Honda with my daughter, who was looking to lease a car. She chose a 2016 Honda Civic. The sales associate, Ron Rajnai was very helpful getting her through this process. While there, he asked if I was in the market for a new car. I told him that I would think about it. I discussed getting a car with my husband the next morning and he suggested that we go back to the dealership to see if there were any deals for me. After meeting with Ron again, my husband bought me a 2016 Accord. I would highly recommend this dealership. Both my daughter and I are very pleased with our new cars.

Oh my goodness, i can't even really explain to you all how pleasant this experience was. The dealership had many options, but what was ridiculously satisfying was my Salesman Sanjay Chadda. If you've ever bought a car at a dealership you know the hassle and hard times that come along with dealing with salesman, but none of that applied to Sanjay. He was right to the point and made me narrowing down my decision easy and fun. The longest part of the whole thing was me constantly asking for test drives, but he was more than patient and accommodating.. Thank goodness for this guy. I highly recommend paying him a visit if you're looking for a Used Car.

Was looking for a new car for my daughter, thanks to Edmond Leung, I learned a lot about Honda, he is very patient and polite, and most if all was very professional, not like some salesman they just want to push and sell you a car. I am very satisfied with his service. DCH will be the only car dealer for me and my family from now on. Good job!

I went to Academy Honda on 10/29/16 to purchase a 2017 Honda Accord EX-L V6 2 door coupe. I discussed the purchase of the vehicle with Megan Byrnes over the phone and via internet prior to my visit. I met with Khalil Quraishi when I walked into the dealership to finalize the vehicle purchase. I always buy my new cars through Academy Honda and it is always a pleasant experience. I did most of my research prior to going to the dealership to minimize my time spent at the dealership. They were both very knowledgeable, helpful, clear, efficient and accommodating during the entire process. I then met with the finance manager, Jenni Negrin, and she was also very knowledgeable, accommodating, clear and very helpful in making all my decisions. They all made sure I understood all the options available and every that was available to me at the time of the purchase. Academy Honda has an incredible staff and they are there to help in any way they can. I will always by my vehicles at Academy Honda

The exception mentioned in the title of my review OF THE DEALERSHIP refers to the "Dealer Installed Accessories" whose cost was not included in the price quoted to me on line by the dealer. In fact, those accessories were not wanted by me anyway, and almost caused the purchase to be cancelled. Through Jason Sepulveda's efforts to resolve our dissatisfaction about this, the sale did go through.

From my initial contact via the Internet when I was just exploring the possibilities (Heather Reinbeck), to my first visit to the showroom when I met Dimitri Victoratos, my sales consultant, to when I returned to the dealership after deciding to move forward with a lease, to the enthusiasiatic gentleman (also named Dimitri) who walked me through all the features of my new Odyssey while my lease paperwork was being prepared, to the inviting lounge (with free coffee!) for customers, this is a special dealership. As a Grammy of 6 grandchildren ranging in age from a 1 year old to a 5 year old, I was looking for a safe vehicle that could accommodate 6 car seats and that I could afford. After a search of other vehicle makes and models and consulting with other dealers, I desperately wanted to find a way to drive the Odyssey, the perfect fit for my needs. With the favorable and timely information provided by Ms. Reinbeck, I decided to visit DCH Honda in person. I was met by Mr. Victoratos who spent a considerable amount of time with me explaining all the features of the various models and laying out all the possible financial arrangements; in doing so, he helped me find a way to afford the Odyssey. Though I didn't purchase or lease the Odyssey at my first vist, I was not badgered or pressured. After letting all the information I was given "marinate" for a few days, I decided to move forward and lease my dream vehicle! Dimitri Victoratos could not have been more helpful and considerate the entire time - from my first visit to when I picked up my license plates (he installed for me!). For any consumer who is looking for a welcoming dealership and a sales consultant who is knowledgeable, patient, and courteous, I wholeheartedly recommend DCH Academy Honda and especially sales consultant Dimitri Victoratos!

This was the fourth dealer that I tried for our HRV. Ron was the first person to fully understand our expectations about the car (others were just trying to sell what they had in their stock). Though the model and color we wanted was very rare, he tried all the options and finally got it from a different place (There were only a couple of them available in the whole tri-state area at that time) We were very satisfied with the whole process and the pricing. Over all, it was a great pleasant car buying experience. Keep up the good work Ron.

My salesperson, Mr. Robert Levine was amazing! He was very knowledgeable, friendly and yet professional. The price he gave me for the car, I thought, was unbeatable. He answered all my questions and he spent the time required to go over the functions and features of the new car. I greatly appreciated his patience, and definitely it was an awesome experience! I highly recommend prospective buyers to work with Mr. Robert Levine and other friendly staff members at DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge, New Jersey!

I went to DCH Academy Honda, Old Bridge with the intention to CONSIDER and THINK ABOUT the purchase of a used Honda. I left a couple of hours later and totally to my surprise, a very happy customer of DCH, driving my beautiful 2013 Honda certified Honda Civic, As far as I am concerned my salesman, Edward Moy is the best in the business, He is extremely knowledgeable about every Honda and answers questions about the cars before you even think to ask them. Ed is unbelievably courteous. and realized what I was looking for in a car in seconds. Of all the cars on the lot, one jumped out at me. Ed showed and described and demonstrated in detail, every feature of the car. I mentioned my one concern about the thoughts of "possibly " considering the purchase in maybe a day, of this particular car. He then let me take the car for a test drive on the highway, not just on their short test roadway. That was the best decision he could have made. My one and only concern was completely gone and ten minutes later while walking towards the office I told Edward I wanted to buy that car. A couple of hours later after signing all the papers. I was extremely happy, along with being in shock, as I drove my just purchased car home, If you are just thinking about getting another car, I would highly recommend you go to DCH in Old Bridge, ask for Edward Moy, (even wait for him if you have to) because a better salesman cannot possibly exist. My car is just gorgeous has a 'zillion' safety features and I am thoroughly confident that Edward Moy is the most professional, knowledgeable, pleasant, salesman you could find anywhere. He should be voted as the top salesman for the year. He would get my vote without a hesitation.

I had previously leased a Honda Pilot touring from DCH Academy Honda and had an issue with my glove box lock the first day I purchased the car. I was a bit bothered by the fact that I had to drive back from NYC to fix something on my new car. Upon arrival at the service deptartment I was greeted by Cholo he was very concerned and explained everything to me about my issue and promised me it would get resolved. Two days later he personally contacted me that my part had arrived and made sure that he went above and beyond to resolve my issue and provide excellent customer satisfaction. Thanks Cholo. See you soon.

Enrique was really good to work with. I would recommend him as a salesman to anyone. Being a mechanic before he became a salesman proved that he knew what he was talking about. He explained everything about the vehicle that I needed to know. However his manager tried some tricks by giving us a higher price then what we where originally quoted. He did apologize later & we got the price we wanted.

Last year after visiting a fair amount of dealerships near us, we decided we didn't want to go through the same ones. While they weren't bad, we weren't impressed. Now fast forward to 2016 to replace an older car, we decided on DCH Academy Honda - intent on looking at a Accord. Worked with Luis and felt no rush or pressure at all. After viewing a few different models, we found the Civic more to our liking. Luis took the time to let both me and my wife test drive the cars. My wife isn't as confident in her driving as she didn't have much need for a car in the city. Luis showed us a quiet place to test drive other then route 9. Not only did she love the car, we found a new park to visit on the weekends. He knew a great deal about the car and was enthusiastic explaining it all the latest tech. All this on a late Friday evening. The dealership was able to give us a good deal on both trade in and lease with little to no hassling. While the pricing and type of reliability Hondas are known for made us come through the doors, Luis was the one who really got us to walk out with a new car.

Bought 2 cars from Jerry Soares previously and just purchased a third one. Jerry is very informative, helpful, courteous and willing to answer all your questions and not make you feel rushed. We also dealt with Ash Saadeh, Mark Cummings and Paul Parrisi who is from Finance. They were all very helpful and knowledgeable about the Honda CRV Touring and Paul about the extra packages available. If we did not understand something fully it was explained in detail and we felt comfortable about our purchase. From the time we called this dealership and when we first walked in everyone was very friendly and made our visit and experience a pleasant one.

I just lease a new 2016 Civic LX Sedan. The staff was really great from the Heather Reinbeck who gave me the quote thru the internet to the salesman Enrique Castaneda. Enrique was thorough, detailed, friendly and very accommodating. The finance guy which I forgot the name was also great (sorry I forgot his name). There was no pressure from these guys to buy any options you don't want. This was my second Honda Civic that I bought from this dealership. The first one was a 2010 Honda Civic DX. I received different quotes from different dealers. Almost all are the same maybe with a difference of $10 a month. But I have a great experience in 2010 that is why I chose this dealership again. I also have dealt with different dealerships from Hyundai, Toyota, Ford and Nissan and those dealership I can say I was very sad and angry. But this dealership is very impressive. Thank you again.

Purchased a vehicle with clean car fax presented by DCH. Subsequently review by Autocheck showed major front end damage year prior to purchasing. I would not have bought the car if they had disclosed information. They offered $1500 and a release. The $1500 is not acceptable to make up for the matter and the release was too broad. Please stay away from this dealership.

I walked in late on the last day of the month within two hours of closing to negotiate two stock numbers that I narrowed my search to. I was approached by Manny and mentioned that I wanted to test drive two vehicles. He found the stock location and we proceeded to test drive both vehicles. The first vehicle that we tested smelled like cigarette smoke in the cloth and bothered my family. We tested the second vehicle and determined it was the right investment for us.We negotiated the selling price below the asking Internet price. An equivalent vehicle with the low mileage was selling for thousands more. Manny helped us finalize our clerical issues with our insurance policy and made the car buying process as seamless as possible.Ask for Manny, he will take care of his customers and provide honest and straight-forward negotiation.

We were introduced to Johnny Mayfield to purchase a 2017 Accord EXL. After test driving a vehicle we decided to obtain a price. When we returned to dealer, Johnny was very polite, experienced and knowledgable and made the purchase process hassle free. Upon taking possession of the vehicle he explained and set up the phone and pointed out how to use the audio system. The financing segment with Paul M was also a good experience.

The fact that I continue to ask for Robert Levine to handle my cars is a testament to his excellent service, capability, knowledge and professionalism; and this dealership has given me the most excellent service and respect. Always, friendly, personable employees that make you feel very special. I would also like to comment on the professionalism and helpful assistance from Gercino Soares in making my most recent lease a very smooth and efficient experience, along with Robert. I give the highest marks possible to this team!

We've purchased or leased 3 Honda's from DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge in the last 2 years and have been nothing but delighted by our experience. Enrique Castaneta is our sales person and he always goes above and beyond to make sure the price, experience, and service well exceeds our standards. We have already referred one person within our family and will continue to send many referrals to Enrique and DCH in Old Bridge. We also have all our major servicing done by the Honda team there and our experience has been excellent every time with the service team.

As a life time Chevy owner I was apprehensive to make the change to Honda or anything else for that matter. I was put to ease by ED and his professional and polite manner. Even more importantly his NON-pushy manner which would have and has at other places led me to a IMMEDIATE exit! I am now a 1st time Accord owner.

My wife and I were shopping around for a new car.DCH Honda contacted me during our search and presented us with a competitive price for the exact car we wanted.Johnny Mayfield was our sales representative and he was a pleasure to deal with. He was well informed about the car we wanted and answered all of our questions. We did not feel pressured once and Johnny helped make sure the purchasing process was smooth.We ordered additional accessories and decided to pick the car up after everything we ordered was delivered and installed. Johnny kept us updated of the progress and how soon the car would be available. When we came to pickup the car, Johnny helped connect our phone to the car and explained how to use the touch screen and all of it's features.I would recommend DCH Honda to others shopping for a new car.

I decided to take a look into the CRV at DCH Academy because I heard about their great customer service. The minute I walked into DCH Academy Honda I was warmly greeted by Dimitri Victoratos. Within the first few minutes of speaking with him, I immediately got a very nice and trustworthy vibe from Dimitri. To put it blunt, he wasn't like other salespeople I've dealt with in the past who are only interested in making a sale and taking your money. Dimitri is the complete opposite of that, he was honestly interested in my needs and kept my desires as his top priority. He made the whole process very pleasant, and was a pleasure to spend time with. Although I wasn't planning on purchasing the CRV this soon, Dimitri far exceeded my expectations and was able to execute a deal for me that was irresistible. I must state that at NO TIME did Dimitri pressure me whatsoever to purchase anything. He simply answered my questions and presented me with the best options possible for my interests. I ended up driving home with the CRV and couldn't be happier with the deal Dimitri gave me. If you're ever interested in a Honda, I can't recommend enough for you to give Dimitri Victoratos a visit at DCH Academy. I'll proudly refer all of my family and friends to him now. As long as you get to work with Dimitri, trust me, you won't be disappointed. Make sure you include his last name Victoratos when you go there, as there are two associates that are named Dimitri. Also, the Finance Manager Jenni Negrin was absolutely delightful to work with, and added to the perfect experience I had at DCH.

After convincing my mom to come with me to Honda, because she had so many bad experiences at other dealerships, we went to DCH to look at the Honda Civic to lease. Ron came up to us right away and helped us. This was the first time I was leasing a car on my own and Ron helped me with everything. We came in late at night and he had no problem going out of his way to break down numbers and find the perfect car for me. The next day I came in and my car was cleaned and ready to go! "Batman" helped me with the finance aspect of the deal and all I had to do the next day was sign the papers. Ron and Batman definitely changed my mom's views about car dealerships and I can't thank them enough for making this process so simple for us! If you are going to DCH ask for Ron, him and Batman will take care of you!

I was shopling around would not have leased the car same day but because of Mr. Qureshi i did not wait for next day. He was very parience and made some much easier for the entore process so i made my mind and took a brand new car home. He did not imppse anything on me neither push me to buy or lease a car. He explained it to me everything and let it on me to make the decision. Because of this great person i would certainly recommend this dealership. I would thank DCH Honda Accademy old bridge location for hiring such a wonderful staff who egar to assist his customer.P.s I would also like to thank a gentleman who works in your finance department, who asked me to sign all the papers work. He was very polite and a wonderful person.

I have owned Honda for many years now. And love my Honda's, but I was reluctant with purchasing another Honda due to the customer service and false advertisement I'd received from my past dealerships, Honda of New Rochelle. Who also own Paragon Honda and Other Honda dealers. Ronaldo Rajnai. A.K.A Ron was honest and straight to the point. My wife and I were very pleased that he followed through with everything he promised with our Honda Pilot 2016 Touring and continues to do so when ever I have a question or concern regarding the most minut detail about my vehicle. He is always there to answer my questions and concerns even after the sale was finalized. Thank you Ron. DCH Academy Honda is lucky to have an employee as yourself on their team.

My boyfriend convinced me to go back to DCH Academy this past Friday as we both wanted to buy a car and its close to our house. We worked with a great salesperson that we were extremely happy with, his name is Erik Friedman..we would highly recommend him to anyone. He was fantastic from the start of the process right till the end of it. He was extremely professional, nice and very helpful. He really changed me mind about DCH Academy Honda and we will buy our next cars from Erik Friedman, he is the best.

September 23, 2016John M.I waited six months after I bought my CR-V from Academy Honda, Old Bridge, NJ waiting to see how it performed before writing this review. I purchased a 2016 CR-V EX-L in mid-March 2016. My sales person was Paul Aweeky. Overall it was a satisfying experience. I think I got a great price for the CR-V, although I wish I could have gotten a little more for my trade in 2011 Toyota Rav4 Limited w/v6, I was happy with overall transaction. What I liked about it there was no pressure to buy any extras extended warranty, maintenance plan, etc, had no problem with financing 1.9% 60mo. .Now long story short, Honda ( and all car manufactures) have been using engine wiring that is soy based ( eco-friendly) but unfortunately makes it tasty for small animals ( rodents, rabbits, etc..), and many customers (throughout the country) have been having problems with chewed up wiring ( google it), so Honda came out with a OEM Rodent Tape ( basically electrical tape infused with HOT pepper extract) to wrap the wiring with. For some strange reason the Academy Honda service dept. refused to wrap the wiring with the OEM tape ( even though I was willing to pay for it, which could have cost several hundred dollars time& labor), so I was going to walk away from the deal . Thats when Paul A. came to the rescue! He got the sales manager, Joe Scardino involved and together they rolled up their sleeves ( literally) and wrapped about 90% of the wiring with the rodent tape! AND DID NOT CHARGE ME ANYTHING!! Note, I supplied the rodent tape that I bought online.The CR-V is running great. Ive had no problems with it, so overall Im very happy with it and the whole buying experience. I fully recommend DCH Academy Honda when looking to buy a new or used vehicle. NOTE: the reason I went to them in the first place is in 2007 I bought a new Honda Odyssey and had a great buying experience.

I have been a customer of DCH Academy Honda and over the years have leased vehicles from this dealership in 2006, 2012, and 2014. Why do I keep coming back ?1. Great Customer Service2. Fair and honest pricing3. This is the most important reason : Joseph GuzzoI have had the pleasure to work with Joe Guzzo on my Honda CRV purchases for my 2012 and 2015 models and Joe makes the experience painless. Joe listens to you, provides you with sound advice about the vehicle and its features and is there for you throughout the entire buying and leasing experience. He even makes sure that the car is perfect when it is time for delivery and goes above and beyond inspecting the car from front to back making sure that not even one fingerprint is on the car before you get it. I have such complete confidence in Joe, that I brought my brother to him who had been burned by another dealership and Joe alleviated his fears, got him the right price for his new Honda CRV. This might sound too good to be true, but I am telling you , Joe is the anti- sales person , no pressure from Joe, after all these are Hondas, which are great cars that are sold to you by a great dealership and a even greater person, Joseph Guzzo. Go see him at DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge, NJ. You'll be glad you did !

My experience with duchess Honda was the worst ever. Not so much truckers fault but still trucar brought me to them. I was looking for a manual transmission. The car I got a used vehicle certificate on. Was posted as a 2005 Subaru Forester 4 dr 2.5 ss Manual. Lower in the description it said 5 speed manual w/OD. After driving over an hour and a half to Old Bridge NJ and having my boyfriend get a ticket for not knowing where we were going the car was not the one pictured, was NOT MANUAL TRANSMISSION. The car was an automatic. It had a broken windshield and had a sticker saying not ready for sale. The car was physically dirty both inside and outside. I had spoken to the dealership the day before and that morning I went to see it. Even on my way there I called there and asked them to go check that the car was there and as clean as it looked. The person who was supposed to check it and show it WASN'T EVEN THERE WHEN WE GOT THERE. Sanjay Chadda was the representative who after confirming that we had a 9:30 am appointment to see the car was not there when I got there. This was the absolute worst experience ever.

He explained me everything, gave good discounts on my purchase, finance and finally fixed the deal to bring my dream car at home on the day when I want. Thank you Dimitry Victoratos!!!I visited all the other Honda showrooms in NJ, I cant say much about other as I dont have good experience with them especially with Open Road Honda, Edison. But it was a wonderful experience to buy a Car from DCH Honda. They are the best dealer in New Jersey and having great sales person. DCH suits them (Deliver Customer Happiness)..

Dimitri worked with my budget to get me an awesome deal on this beautiful car and I could not be more satisfied. He had answers to all of my questions and knew offhand every feature and spec the cars came with; this, in addition to his affability, made the decision making process a breeze. I highly recommend any potential buyers to ask for Dimitri.

I had been contemplating over which way to go, finance to buy or to lease a vehicle for some time, not only did they make it easy but they were very efficient in not wasting time. Being sort of new to "dealing" with car buying DCH made it so easy and hassle free, I already have told family & friends about them.

I can't say enough about this dealership. My husband and I were welcomed into this dealership almost as if we were family after walking out of a previous dealership completely upset and disillusioned. Jason Sepulveda has a humorous and compassionate way about him. He worked with us and our needs until it all clicked together. He made it all work out without once making us feel uncomfortable. He got me into a beautiful Honda Pilot Touring, and I just could not be happier. Gerry was outstanding at getting all of the numbers to work out for us and also a joy to work with. We had a good feeling walking into the place, and the feeling never wavered. All of these men are true gentlemen and made one of the most stressful experiences almost a pleasure.

Jason was a great salesman . I have to be honest , I do not like car salesmen . ( sorry , Jason ) But Jason was not your pushy car salesman . He never tried to push anything on us . He gave us space to decide what we wanted to do . We love our Ridgeline ! I definitely would recommend buying a car from Jason . We are a Honda family , we have 4 children and between all of us we own 6 Honda's !

I got a great deal on my Civic with Rob Levine and his manager Gercino. Rob showed me everything I needed to know about the car without being too pushy. I also didn't have to wait long for my paperwork despite coming in at the end of the month. It was overall a good experience, which is why my family chooses to come here time over time.

I've leased a car in the past and it was stressful and very time consuming. I came to DCH to get a new car and the second time around was a lot less stressful compared to my first leasing process with another dealer. The process was smooth and quick. Ash Saadeh was very helpful and gave us a great deal. We went to a few dealerships but came back to DCH Academy Honda because of the atmosphere and helpful service provided.

Purchased a Honda Pilot from DCH Academy Honda and was given everything promised. Great staff great price great service, especially from my salesman Erich Tam. He delivered in everyway possible from updating me when the vehicle would arrive to delivering the right deal. Best car buying experience bay far. I purchased a CRV back in 2010 from DCH and was given the same treatment back then. Great team at DCH highly recommend Erich Tam for your next Honda.

DCH Honda on Rt. 9 Old Bridge NJ is one of the best. People working there are professional and friendly. I bought 6 new Honda cars from this office. My last experience was in August with sales person Mr. Jason Sepulveda. He is very knowledgable, answered all my questions, gave me advise about new car sale. I trusted his expertise and he helped me to buy new Honda car.

I walked into Academy Honda on a Saturday afternoon after being jerked around by 2 other local dealers. I thought here I go again but boy was I wrong. My salesman was Paul Aweeky and he was exceptional. From the moment he greeted me until I drove off with my Civic he put me at ease not rushing and explaining all the features of the car. Thank you Paul. I will be sending you more business in the near future.

I went to Academy Honda because I saw a lot of reviews. I noticed one name on cars.com and asked to see Paul Aweeky. His name was on the website several times. I met Paul and I can see why he is so highly regarded. I needed a new car because I got a new job which requires a lot of driving. Paul put me in a new Civic and got me an affordable payment and made me and my mom feel at ease. He doesn't pressure you or intimidate you in any way. If you need a new Honda or any other vehicle please go see Paul Aweeky. Paul is a true professional and I will be sending him several referrals in the near future.

This is my 5th Honda, 3rd from this dealer. Until now all my experinces have been the best as have also been those of several friends I have recommended to go there. During the purchase process I was explained several times that Pilots are in shortage due to some factory issue with shared production lines with the MDX. In other words they tell you that it is a take it or leave it deal. I was also told I was getting an even better deal because I was buying a car that was not in the lot - that turned out not to be true either. Salesperson has no incentive to put an effort- but they still ask for 'all 10'. "The manager" that came to talk to me told me the same - so this seems to me more like the practice with Pilots. At the end I got the same deal all other dealers in the area were offering. Not a bad deal, just not better. The buy it or lose it to the next guy was unnecessary. Not worth a drive if you are comming from far.

I just bought my new car in DCH Academy Honda Old Brigde. I got help from John Nguyen and Joseph Guzzo. They are excellent, professional, and friendly. They helped me through the whole process. I requested the red car which was not available in the dealer at that time. John helped me find it and deal with the bank for my interest rates while I was so busy with work. Joseph helped me with all the paperwork and all the extra programs for my car. Overall, I had a wonderful experience during my visit. I would recommend going here to get your new car

I e-mailed DCH in the wee hours of the morning to inquire about a 2015 Honda Accord Sport I had my eye on. The staff got back to me asap and within hours, Jennifer scheduled me for an appointment. I drove 1 hour and 30 mins from Philadelphia to look at this car. Gerry was super helpful and extremely efficient in helping me get into my dream car. David, from finance was very patient while I was working with my insurance company. I am very satisfied with my purchase. The lomg trip up there was with worth it to have gotten the exceptional customer service I received. I am confident that the staff at DCH Academy Honda will be able to help anyone find what they need.

I leased a 2016 Honda CRV from DCH Honda, Old Bridge, NJ and was told by Joseph Guzzo, salesman that the money factor to lease was: 0.0080, calculated interest 1.9%. Then at the lease signing, things changed and the money factor climbed to 0.0015, calculated interest 3.6%. Unfortunately after the lease signing,I found the mysterious formula for calculating the money factor to interest: (Rent Charge/Lease Term)/(Adjusted Cap Cost + Residual) and that changes the money factor to 0.00329 with a 7.9% interest rate. Honda claims that interest rates are negotiable but not when you were lied to and believed the Business Mgr. Paul Papis when he stated that the money factor given to me by Guzzo changed because of my credit history, and he would not answer my repeated question as to the interest rate. Both DCH Honda and Honda Finance did a credit report (two reports for the same transaction). Same credit report but different outcomes when it came to both the money factor and interest rate. On top of this Mr. Guzzo (a dedicated salesman) offered to throw in both the Nitrofill $199.00 and Key Replacement $399.00 at no costs. Then Business Mgr Paul Papis charged me for both, and this I found out after signing the lease. I believe both NJ Consumer Fraud and the BBB would be interested in this.

DCH Academy Honda Dealership was wonderful to us... The CRV speaks for itself... I'm here to speak about our experience with this particular Dealership. Our Salesman Ron Rajnai, was great. He made the leasing process so easy. He was honest and not pushy. Showed us all the ins and outs of the CRV-EX. We actually upgraded this time, so sharing his knowledge is so appreciated... John Nuygen was involved in our lease process also... Another person that made this transaction so easy by being honest, straight forward, and not pushy. This was our 2nd time back to DCH Academy and I can honestly say, it won't be our last. Not a doubt in our minds... Thanks to the wonderful people at DCH Academy. Anyone even thinking about buying a vehicle, new or used would be wise to drop by DCH Academy Honda, you won't be sorry.

I recently totaled out my 2010 Accord and was deciding between another Honda or a Subaru. I initially went to TruCar just to check out some of the models and pricing in the area and recieved offers from a few local dealers via email the same day. I was initially contacted by Mark Kamatoy both by email and phone, he was very professional and was committed to making a deal. Mark gave me a price that was very competitive and actually put it in writing. Most dealers wont do this and if they do its a setup for a "bate and switch."Mark did not presure me to make the sale nor did he try to get me into the dealership. Mark was confident that he had the best price in the area and encouraged me to shop his competitors. So I did, I contacted V.I.P honda a dealer i had purchased 2 new accords from in the past 10yrs and Open Road my local dealer. I told them about Mark's offer and i asked if they would meet or beat his deal they all claimed they could and insisted i come in for a test drive. When i arrived at the other dealers they all asked to see Mark's deal and promised they could do better put refused to put it in writing and their offers when completed didnt meet or beat Mark's. Mark was right and so DCH earned my trust. A few days went by and I decided to visit the dealership. I arrived and quitely walked around the dealership for 30 or so minutes and was surprised that no one tried to bother me as I was just walking around. I called Mark and told him about the other dealers how they claimed they would beat his price. I then told him I was on site and he immediately came out to greet me, it was at that time he introduced me to Ronald "Ron" Rajnai. Ron and I sat at his desk for a few minutes as he confirmed what my needs and expectations. A few minutes later we went out to a car. We sat inside for about 30 min played with all the buttons discussed all the features and i decided to take it for a test drive. I assume Ron didnt know I was well educated on the features of the accord as I had pervious ly owned 2 others but he took the time to accurately explain everything he knew about the car as if he were the owners manual. We went back to marks desk and sat and talked about the deal for another 30 or so minutes. I told Ron he had earned my business and I would return once I had my finances in order. I returned the following Saturday with me family and drove home my 2016 Homda Accord EX. Great service frendly knowledgeable staff and no pressure to make the sale what more could you ask for.as a customer. I will definately return to DCH when its time for my next Accord.

DCH Honda and Johnny Mayfield came recommended to me when I was scouting around for a new car. Johnny was very helpful and worked with the Sales Manager to get me the car and deal I was looking for. Everyone I spoke with including the finance manager was courteous, friendly and helpful. I have already recommended the dealership and Johnny to my neighbor who will be looking for a new lease in November.

Ron was great. We were very satisfied with the service he provided us. I would definitely recommend him! He had excellent customer service and was very friendly. We also had our children with us, and he was friendly with them, as well. We just had a new car purchase from another brand dealership, and there is no comparison between how the two transactions went. With Ron, everything went really smoothly and we got everything we asked for. Overall, it was a pleasant experience and we are very happy with the new vehicle.

I used this dealership for purchase of two cars so far, and the maintenance of my first car. Was very happy with all the services provided, so I keep coming back. Latest transaction was a purchase of new car - whole experience was smooth and fast, with no issues. Was dealing with Dimitri for the sales, and he did a great job on keeping the whole end to end process being hassle free and fast - I was kept informed in timely manner on the car delivery, was helped and instructed on initial car setup. Full recommendation for his services. Overall experience - I did not feel being pressured to buy any excessive services or products, felt very well supported and taken care of.

I have been dealing with Robert for 25 years, we just purchased a car for my Mother and Robert walked her through every step of the way to make sure she was comfortable with the car. As always he was very informative as well as patient. This has probably been at least my 10th purchase from him and as unbelievable as it sounds , each purchase gets easier and more enjoyable than the last.

Joe Guzzo was an outstanding salesmen and helped my wife feel at ease with her new lease. She was very hesitant on getting a larger vehicle since she is small. We now have a son and needed the space. Joe took the time to ask her the right questions and make sure safety was a focus point. She was initially looking for a CR-V. Joe, recommended the HR-V, to which we didn't even know existed and once she sat in it and Joe explained the features, she was all for it. The extra bonus was we came with her current Civic, which the lease was finished and was able to go home the same day with the new HR-V. Thank you Joe for your exemplary customer service and sense of humor that eased the wait during the process. Two Thumbs UP! P.S. As a Staten Island resident, we could have easily gone to a closer location, but Joe made the trip worthwhile.

Dimitri was very easy to work with. He was able to get us the deal we wanted at the price we wanted. We were limited with the time we had and Dimitri was able to get all the paperwork done within two and a half hours. He explained all the features of the car and helped set up everything that needed to be. I love my new Odyssey and would definitely recommend using Dimitri Victoratos as your salesman.

This is my 3rd purchase with Robert Levine; and yes I would come back again. He is always very helpful and patient. Robert made sure I understood the differences between the vehicles I was considering and the one I ultimately purchased. He explained all the features of the vehicle, which was a task because my previous cars did not have any of the new technology. He was very patient and made sure I new how to use the features and offered for me to call him if I had any additional questions after I left the dealership.

I've never had such a streamlined and pleasant experience. Patrick was the first to respond to my email, gave me the best price that other dealerships laughed at and would not believe. I was expecting to leave and walk out because I've had too many unpleasant experiences in the past but Mr Corley made this whole experience stress free. This man even drove home with us so that some paperwork could be signed by the co-owner. FORGET ALL THE OTHER SALESMEN- CORLEY IS THE ONE TO ASK FOR AT THIS DEALERSHIP hands down

Had to bring in my 04 Honda Pilot for some major service before a long vacation. It was last minute service and they took me in. My service advisor Nicole and Service Manager Jerwin were excellent. They explained all the services that were needed. Though I couldn't get all the services in the service book, Jerwin identified all the critical items to be fixed before our vacation. They also had a rental car service, not just shuttle services, which was greatly appreciated for services lasting more than one day. I received a call the next day and my Pilot's service was completed. Nicole greeted me and Jerwin explained all the services that were completed. I would highly recommend DCH Academy Honda service department to anyone looking to get their vehicle serviced.

I was promised a repair while buying the car and now the sales representative says that the repair guy will be available only during the weekdays 9-11. I tried reaching the sales guy around 20 times and he doesn't respond to calls and I have to keep texting the whole day. I got an air pressure alert the same day I bought the car and even then he hasn't responded. One of the worst customer service experience I ever had. I definitely don't recommend this sales representative and this dealership.

This was the second Honda dealership i visited. The first was Open Road Honda (ORH) in Edison where they made me feel like the only thing they were interested in was selling a car but not the customer satisfaction.when I visited DCH Academy, my experience was completely different beginning with Ronald Rajnai who, contrary to ORH, explained the process of leasing a new car and the steps we would follow before even running our score. We ran into a small setback where more documents were needed yet Ronald went the extra mile to get things done and to make sure we were able to be satisfied.I definitely recommend this place and will refer others in the future.

Joe Guzzo was very knowledgable and took the time to explain the differences in the features of each car that we looked at. He helped us pick out a car for our growing family and there was no pressure to buy. He also showed us, in great detail, the features of the car once we purchased it because we were not familiar with the model.

My purchase on Saturday was the fourth car I've bought from Academy Honda and my second time dealing with Jason S. He knew I didn't want to spend a whole day in a dealership and got straight to the point without the "lecture" I've become accustomed to from other dealers, esp. the local competitor. Jason was fast, knows his stuff, did not take phone calls while with me, and presented no last minute gimmicks to alter the agreed upon price. This last point is particularly appreciated. Overall the dealership seems to truly value your business and especially your return business. They're attentive without being overbearing and I think they'll go a little farther to make the customer happy. Good people to work with.

My wife and I were ready to make a change from the world of minivans to a 3rd row SUV. After doing loads of research, we became big fans of the redesigned Honda Pilot. The process began with Mark Kamatoy, who quickly provided me with attractive pricing. In addition to the best pricing, DCH Academy is by far the highest rated dealer in the area, which is a win win. We were sold and not disappointed. We met with Jason, who greeted us very warmly and was very professional. He went out of his way to accommodate all of our needs during the vehicle selection process, as well as any other requests that we had throughout the evening Jason and the rest of the DCH team were honest and were looking out for our best interests. We appreciate everything that was done and would certainly recommend DCH Academy Honda & Jason Sepulveda to any of our friends and family.

He was attentive and made sure I was taken care of from the time I walked in to the dealership to the time I left. When you go in to the dealership ... Ask for Jason!

If you want a great service, hassle free, no gimmicks and straight forward experience go see Jason over at DCH Honda. He was definitely a great pleasure to work with. Also, a special thanks to John for his help in getting the numbers to work in our favor. I would totally recommend this dealership to anyone looking to get a great new be vehicle. - Tamara J.

Not only he honored the price quote I got from the internet he also made sure that we got the two vehicles that we wanted at the monthly price that we can afford. He went above and beyond to make the deal possible. At the end of the day, he made my wife very happy. Thanks to Jason and the DCH family. I will surely recommend you to all my friends and relatives.

We have been leasing a car at DCH Honda since 2011 and have been satisfied with the customer service. Everyone is friendly and helpful and explains all the details of the car you will purchase. So this time we came back to finance a Pilot since our family is growing. Jason helped us as much as he can, explained everything thoroughly and is very patient with all our questions and demand. He is a great salesperson! Made us feel comfortable and like we are a part of a their family... Thanks! And God Bless!

The lease was coming to an end on my 2013 Honda Civic. After taking a trip to the DCH Honda dealership to weigh my options, Jason greeted me at the door and listened to what I had to say. Not only was Jason very eager to help me out, but he broke everything down in the most understandable and easiest fashion. Later that day, I had called Jason back to make another appointment to meet with him to get my new car. He returned my call within minutes, and told me to meet with him at my convenience. At this point, we were then signing papers for my new 2016 Honda Civic. All in all, not only is Jason very personable and nice, but the quickest and easiest sales representative I have worked with. That being said, I highly recommend going to DCH Honda and requesting Jason Sepulveda, you will not be disappointed.

I was in service on Wednesday having my 2006 Civic serviced .I decided to walk into the showroom and I was politely greeted by Paul Aweeky who asked me if I had any questions that I needed answered. I asked him if they had any new Civics and he promptly brought up one so I can see it. I fell in love with it and I asked about a trade on my current vehicle. He offered me a free appraisal and gave me a great value on my trade. I decided that is was time so I decided to buy the new Civic. I came in on Friday and he had all the paperwork ready and when finished he showed me all the new features. What a terrific salesman. Thank you Paul for your great service. The best part of all is that Academy Honda paid for my service on my old car. Thank you to the staff of Academy Honda.

Hello,I started out by inquiring over the internet about a certain car. The response was quick, and an appointment was setup. Veronica was very pleasant. The car I liked was not ready for a test drive as it was in need of repair. I would not normally say yes to buying a car with out test driving it. That is bad business. But with the guidance of my Lord Jesus, I trusted in Veronica and DCH Auto to make a deal on the spot. I did not get the car for the price I wanted, but it was still a great deal. Terry Bhatia was a very kind professional finance agent. They made sure the vehicle was repaired before I could receive it. The car was ready the next day. It is a great car. I will return their again, GOD WILLING.

This my third car buying from him and the group. He's affable, attentive, and knowledgeable. He's a great conversationalist and also listened to what I wanted. He knows what competitors are doing and will offer the best/fair price. He made the whole buying process smooth. The dealership is great. They made sure the deal will close with financing that I wanted. The environment and atmosphere immaculate. Also, their coffee machine serves the best hot chocolate. I've been driving my civic for a week and absolutely love it. Go see Khalil for your new Honda!

He gave me his card and when I was ready on a Saturday I came in and asked for him. They had a 2015 leftover CRV Touring in the color I wanted and the rest was history. 2 hours later I was driving home. My wife loves the car so much I had a hard time getting the keys back from her. Thank you Paul and thanks to Jennifer in the finance department for making this deal happen.

Two thumbs up, great buying experience! Went to the dealership over this past Memorial Day Weekend to "see what my options are" and left less than 2 hrs later with a brand new 2016 Honda CR-V. This was the easiest car purchase I have ever made. Khalil was more than helpful, and worked hard to meet my needs. I really thought that this was going to be a long and draining process, but everyone at the dealership was very efficient and I was driving back home in my new vehicle in basically no time. I can't possibly say enough good things about Khalil, so I'll just finish by saying that I will definitely be referring other prospective Honda buyers to Khalil Quraishi and DCH Academy Honda.

This was the first time I purchased my own car and I was expecting it to be a difficult and painful process but the DCH team really made it truly enjoyable and simple! Enrique Castaneta was very patient and extremely helpful. I came in not knowing what I wanted and he helped show me all of my options based on my current lifestyle. The Manager, John Nguyen, was also extremely helpful and helped me find the car I was looking for. When it came to the paperwork and financing, Paul Papis helped explain everything to me in clear detail and was very helpful.This was definitely a great experience and DCH is an excellent team. I will be coming back!

Great experience at DCH Academy Honda over this past Memorial Day Weekend.I bought a new CRV. If you are searching for a new car, I highly recommend DCH Academy Honda! From the moment I stepped into the dealership, I was greeted and made to feel comfortable by sales consultant Ash Saadeh. He was very professional, knowledgeable and was very patient and answered all my questions. He made the buying process a smooth and great experience. After all the paperwork was processed and finalized, Ash came outside with me to my new vehicle, to go over all features of the car and patiently sat there answering my many questions and showing me how things work. As if I wasn't happy and Impressed enough, Ash was kind enough to call me a few days later, just to see how things were going with the new car and to ask If I had any questions. If you're in the market to buy a Honda, do yourself a favor, go to DCH Academy Honda, I promise, you won't regret it. Ask for Ash Saadeh.

I am happy with my purchase and would recommend Ed to anyone! I have had my car maintained at DCH Academy Honda and have always been treated respectfully and fairly.

Great experience at DCH Academy Honda over this past Memorial Day Weekend.I bought a new CRV. If you are searching for a new car, I highly recommend DCH Academy Honda! From the moment I stepped into the dealership, I was greeted and made to feel comfortable by sales consultant Ash Saadeh. He was very professional, knowledgeable and was very patient and answered all my questions. He made the buying process a smooth and great experience. After all the paperwork was processed and finalized, Ash came outside with me to my new vehicle, to go over all features of the car and patiently sat there answering my many questions and showing me how things work. As if I wasn't happy and Impressed enough, Ash was kind enough to call me a few days later, just to see how things were going with the new car and to ask If I had any questions. If you're in the market to buy a Honda, do yourself a favor, go to DCH Academy Honda, I promise, you won't regret it. Ask for Ash Saadeh.

Overall a great experience with DCH Honda. I was welcomed as soon as I walked through the door by a gentlemen named Ashraf, who in turn, was very helpful throughout the whole car buying process. Ashraf and everyone at DCH Honda took their time with me and made my transition into a new vehicle easy and hassel free! Thank you DCH Honda!

When I began my search for my car, I did the normal internet research. Loretta from the internet department was so prompt in getting back to me. I asked to get the best price they can give and sure enough, they provided me with that. Most of the other dealerships told me in order for them to quote me a price I had to come to the dealership. What I loved about DCH was that there were no games. They were straight and fair with me from the moment I began to research the car. Joe, the GSM, was also very friendly and professional every step of the way! I would hands down recommend DCH Academy Honda if you are in the market for a new car! You will be very happy with the experience!

Walked into the dealership just wanting to shop, didn't think I could afford much and never believe advertisements for low monthly payments, I spoke with Ron and we began to go over pricing when he brought to my attention a beautiful left over 2015, which by the way was fully loaded. The price was great and my car is phenomenal, thanx again Dch

From the moment we walked in he gave us a warm welcoming. He was able to answer all our questions and doubts and advice us as not only customers, but also as someone whose been through what we wanted to do. He was able to get us the car we wanted with a great deal! We've been to other dealers for our previous car and the process was long and painful, as for our experience in DCH with Jason, the process was easier, and we didnt have to be there all day! Thank you so much for all your help !

I want to start off by saying THANK YOU to Gary Pulgarin, John Nguyen and Paul Papis. I purchased a brand new Honda Accord EXL. To Gary and John, I really appreciate the fact that you LISTENED to me regarding what I wanted and you were not pushy. Very accommodating. Perfect example, when I expressed to please only run my credit application to the bank I chose, you honored my request. That was so major for me. My last car buying experience with another dealership in 2011 was horrible and I paid that price for 5 years until now. That nightmare is behind me thanks to you all. You guys really don't understand how much I appreciate the experience you offered me. It was the best. And the process was super quick which was another plus for me. I don't generally write reviews but I had to do so because my experience with you guys far exceeded my expectation. And I will post my gratitude on a few sites because it is truly deserving. Thank You Thank You Thank you. Be blessed! -Doris

We have leased many vehicles with the help of our favorite sales associate, Khalil...our most experience was by far, the best. Khalil was both professional and accommodating to say the least. He reciprocated the loyalty we have show the dealership over the years.. As always he was courteous and made sure we received the very best deal. Thank you Khalil!

It was the best car purchase experience for me. My sales person Heather Reinbeck was very helpful right from the beginning and not at all pushy. She seemed to be focused more on my needs than trying to sell anything to me. After having been to many agencies this was really a very pleasant experience. I would recommend this dealer and Heather to anyone looking to buy or lease a Honda vehicle.

Just had a great experience at DCH Academy Honda over the weekend. I was offered a more competitive price from another dealership in the area but as is unfortunately typical in the industry, as I tried to close on the deal things started to change. The car that was in stock yesterday, suddenly isn't today, the internet representative made a mistake on the quote, the manager had to verify something, and on and on. I didn't experience any of this type of 'bait and switch' at DCH. They quoted a fair price that they could actually honor and verified everything was set to go before I came to the dealership. Once I arrived at the dealership, I was treated respectfully by everyone that I came in contact with. Erich, my sales representative, went out of his way to get me out of the dealership quickly since we had aligned on a price quickly and there's nothing I hate much more than wasting an entire day in a dealership.I will definitely use DCH for all my future Honda purchases and thank you to everyone at DCH for being so decent.

I do not write reviews. But my experience at DCH and with Veronica Galluccio was so good I feel obligated.Several months in the market for a late model 2 door Jeep Wrangler Sahara in a specific configuration that was very hard to find locally. Several dealerships I discovered would keep fallacious listings for automobiles that no longer existed only to inform me that oh that Sahara was sold his morning but let me show you what we have. First time it happened OK. Second time it happened immediate exit from dealership. Expanded my Internet search from 20 to 75 miles and got a hit on several but all 50 miles plus away. One the farthest of the two was at DCH Honda in NJ. Wrote it off thinking it was too far. Saw the other car and was ready to make an offer and put a substantial deposit down. Had to go to Manhattan that week and decided what the heck and clicked on the online link to have DCH contact me. Within 15 mins of clicking I got an email. Responded to that and within 10 minutes of that I got a telephone call from Veronica Galluccio. Explained all the above and told her that relative my business in Manhattan DCH was close enough for me to visit on that one day only. She confirmed to me three times that yes the Sahara was there and available. So I made the appointment to come in in two days with the clear agreement that if the car was sold she would let me know so as not to waste either one of our time.My business meetings took longer than expected and was not leaving Manhattan until about 6pm facing rush hour. Veronica had texted or emailed me that afternoon to confirm the car was still available. I felt terrible but thinking DCH closed at 8pm, I called Veronica to cancel and just resigned myself to purchase the other vehicle from a dealership closer to home. Veronica let me know they were open until 9pm not 8 and whatever time I would arrive would be ok for her even if I ran late. I agreed to come in. Driving through the tunnel from Manhattan to NJ I thought to myself that I must be out of my mind to even think about purchasing a used car from a dealership 2 hours from home in another state. But I went anyway.I arrived at DCH expecting to be greeted by typical hungry wolves. Instead I walked into a stellar showroom with a couple of large TV monitors listing and welcoming prospective customers by name, the salespersons name, appointment time and if not mistaken vehicle. I was immediately impressed and thought to myself that the management here is running a class act with well executed procedures.Got to Veronica who was to my surprise very pleasant, totally professional and accommodating. Got the feeling the personality displayed and mannerisms were authentic and true. No act, no game. Went for a test drive which I hate doing in the dark. Returned and Veronica offered and did have the car pulled into a very well lit service area so I can see it all under good light. Opened the hood and offered to have the Sahara put on a lift if I wanted to inspect that aspect of the Jeep. Was not too concerned since the Jeep had plenty of original factory warranty left.. She allowed me to connect my own ODB reader to the Jeep which revealed no codes at all, all data banks within factory spec tolerances and that the computer had not been resent recently (saw that at another dealership). I was impressed. Veronica was going above and beyond. But not in a pressure way as if she was saying PLEASE BUY THIS CAR!!!... she just was very professional, low key, and accommodating.Back in the office I had a quick decision to make. Consider buying this car 2 hours from my home and figure out how to get it home? If the price was right I would. The negotiations were professional and without pressure. Very little back and forth. Did eventually meet with the sales manager Peter Modzelewski to arrive at a final purchase price. Peter was great. I expected the stereotypical high-pressure, buy it now, sales garbage. Peter was everything but that. He too was professional, low key and very pleasant to deal with. We came to an agreed upon price and he deal was done.Now how the heck do I get the car home?. I live two hours away. One or two days later... easy train ride from LI to Penn Station NJ Transit to a stop not far from the dealership. Got off the train and there was Veronica waiting in a car for me. Back to the dealership. The car was prepped and ready to go. Wrote a check, signed a whole bunch of papers and off I went. Veronica and others took care of it all including the NY registration and taxes. Gave me temporary NJ tags and is having the NY tags mailed to my home.I could not be happier. Veronica, Peter and all the others I met there were GREAT and (now I can say this) the out the door price was too go to turn away from. I will recommend anyone looking to purchase a pre-owned anything to check out DCH and ask for Veronica.

This is the fourth car I have leased from DCH, payment quoted via the internet was the payment I received. Both Mark and Ron were great, as was the Finance person, Paul. Returned my 2013 Accord and drove new car off the lot an hour and half later. Would definitely do business with them again and highly recommend DCH.

I visited 3 local Honda dealers last week. I went to DCH Academy Honda first to price a vehicle and then shop around at other dealers. After speaking with Jason Sepulevda I knew this is where I would purchase my new vehicle. I did shop around and never felt pressured by Jason. After 2 bad experiences at the other dealerships I was back at DCH Academy Honda. Jason Sepulevda was very friendly and polite. My whole experience at DCH Academy Honda was a positive one. The whole staff did their part of making my purchase a quick and simple one.

After having a very bad previous experience at another dealership, I was delighted to have returned to DCH Academy Honda, and leave happy and satisfied with a new lease. My sales representative, Jason Sepulveda, was a pleasure to work with. From the onset, he presented himself as professional, courteous, and competent. Within a short time, my defensiveness began to lessen, and Jason presented a mutually acceptable offer that I was comfortable taking. I felt Jason went the extra extra mile in working with me, and throughout this leasing process, Jason was respectful, patient, and easy going; good sense of humor, too. He helped me regain trust in Honda, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him or this dealership to anyone looking for a Honda AND a pressure-free car buying/leasing experience.

Leased a 2016 Honda CRV. Paul Aweeky, was our New Car Sales Consultant of DCH Academy Honda. My experience dealing with Paul was really enjoyable. Paul is a true professional. He is thorough, patient, understanding and has a great personality. Paul made sure that I knew how to operate all the different controls on the car before I drove away. Paul made this whole leasing process a breeze. Actually, dealing with Paul made me feel that I was family. I've told all my friends which I have many to go to DCH and see Paul. A great and enjoyable experience. With the number of cars I've had, Paul Aweeky is the best of the best.Vincent J. Timmermans

I helped my parents buy a 2013 crv SE. Pricing was great as always. Jason greeted us upon arrival. I told him that if he could understand my needs and concerns that I had no problem giving him my business. He took his time, was very patient and very easy going. Test drove us, took my dad through the service department and introduced him to George the service advisor. Explained to my dad what he would do when he had to come back for his maintenance. Took care of all the paper work super fast. And literally got us out of there in wayyyy less time than I thought it would take based on past experience. Jason Sepulveda was as friendly and efficient as i could never have imagined. This was the best experience I could have had in the car buying sense. Thanks, as you told me about 10 times, "you are my Honda guy". Trust me I won't forget that one. See you in 10 months.

I had a horrible experience at Hamilton Honda even though it would have been my THIRD car from them. The finance manager there was a jerk. I asked to get my payments down from $425 to $400 and said "I'm a veteran, can you bring this to $400, it's $300 a bucks a year, call it a veteran discount." He said "that's nice, so am I, can't go any lower." They kept saying "we give free oil changes." My reply was- "It's not really free if you are under cutting my trade in amount." Duh!DCH Honda gave me $2000 MORE for my trade in than Hamilton Honda offered and got me under $400, I even upgraded my warranty with the savings!!!!!Walter Donnelly was my salesman and was awesome with all my concerns and questions. He found me the car I wanted right while I was sitting in front of him. Vippen in finance was the best, I had no hesitation about signing my name-over and over. DCH Honda is now our new Honda dealer, I'll be back in four years for my Pilot and my three kids will be in a Honda when the time comes. Thank you DCH Honda.

I have nothing but kind words to say about Mark Kamatoy and Joe Guzzo! My purchase process was seamless starting with Mark quoting me the best deals possible and helping me make the CRV 2016 my choice of automobile. From there Joe Guzzo, helped me complete my purchase with a smile on his face throughout! They not only provided me with wonderful customer service, but gave me that comfortable and familiar feel of "family" along the way. I will definitely be referring friends/family to these gentlemen! Thanks for the help Mark & Joe!

Worked with Edward Moy for several weeks, Had a specific car in mind, Later turned into a specific color, Edward worked with us to find what we were looking for, had gone to other dealerships to look and the sales people have still not contacted me even 4 weeks later, Once a car came in that fit what we were looking for Edward called me to tell me what he had, went there the following day and the car was in such good shape that several other people were interested in the car, Edward walked us through the buying process, and gave little extras that other dealerships would charge for, Certified the car, other dealers charge extra, Put new batteries in the remotes ( not that it's a big deal but the little things go a long way ) and made sure that the car was in Pristine shape before handing us the keys, The dealership itself presents the cars extremely well, others dealership the cars are dirty when you take them for a test drive, Would Definitely recommend that anyone interested in buying a Certified Honda go to this dealership to purchase a car and see Edward, I know I will !!!

After my MVA I needed a new car and I was very hesitant in getting one since I did not have a very good experience in the past. My husband and I looked up DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge and read some reviews before attempting to go in to the location. We were first greeted by Erik Friedman and he was able to answer all of our questions about the car we were looking for. After deciding which car we wanted we were also helped by Joseph then with Paul Papis in finance. This was the very first time that I felt that everyone was looking after my best interest and not acting like a "sales" person. I had such a fun time buying my car that I will most definitely recommend them to everyone I know. Words can not express how ecstatic Honda in Old Bridge had made me feel after leaving the lot with my new car. I had such a horrible week due to my MVA and my experience at DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge had made my week a lot more bearable.

Dimitrios of DCH Academy Honda made the task of buying my first car an easy one. He was very helpful and offered insight into the deals and services Honda offers in order to suit my personal needs. He was knowledgeable about the product and explained all of the features in depth and detail which left me an expert upon driving my new car off the lot. Package that with a great deal, and I had myself a wonderful experience. After the purchase, a manager came to congratulate me and see if there was anything else that they could do for me.

I thank Mr. Tam for helping me to buy a nice new Civic. May be for most of you, the most important part, his prices were more competitive than what I found online/ quotes. He did his homework before I went in and showed me his prices are really competitive. He took me to test drives on different kind of roads, showed me different trims and options. I am impressed that he made really serious effort to locate a vehicle that I wanted. He pinpointed a new arrival and took me see the car for real so I can make an informed decision.If you are looking for a new Honda, please make an appointment with Mr. Tam, tell him approximately what you want, see if he can win your business.

We are stunned! We never thought it was possible to have such a wonderful experience buying a used car from a dealership. Our car was everything they said it was and more. They kept their word and far exceeded all our expectations. Edward Moy is one of the kindest, most generous and most honest people we've had the pleasure to work with.. I lack the words to properly express how grateful we are for this wonderful experience. Thank you so very much!

Yesterday we drove down to Academy Honda in Old Bridge, NJ excited to buy a new Fit. The.minute we entered the showroom, a very personable young sales consultant one Demetrios Roumeliotis greeted us at the door. He was very knowledgeable and professional yet friendly, making us feel like we had known him for years. He expertly guided through the whole buying process, answering all our many questions and generally going the extra mile to make sure we were completely satisfied. Next was processing the paperwork with Jenni, another very sweet and knowledgeable person who with .patience explained in detail about the signing process and what each form meant. Also Mark went over the many additional options in detail. We were treated like royalty the whole time we were there. We want to thank all the wonderful staff for a truly fantastic buying experience. We would recommend this dealership to anyone interested in a new or pre- owned vehicle!!

My mother and I visited the dealership in hopes of leasing a new car. I had already had my heart set on which one I wanted. Yet, we were concerned that it would be out of my price range. Enrique Castaneta worked with us to get me a deal I was comfortable with. I am very happy my new car! My mother is happy I got a good deal!

Went to DCH Academy Honda to buy my first new car and I could not be happier. Got a great deal on a 2016 Honda Civic. Everyone we spoke to were very insightful and helpful people. A special thanks to everybody that helped me take home this beauty. I love my new car and I know we will be back next year once my younger brother starts driving. Will recommend DCH Academh Honda to anybody looking for a car.

My daughter and I visited the dealership in search of a new CR-V. Joe Scardigno the general sales manager treated us with respect and bent over backwards to finalize the deal. This deal became difficult only because of the condition of my daughters trade-in. My family and I are repeat customers to DCH Academy Honda for years now. There are many Honda dealers but this one treats you with respect and never pressures you to do anything even though the deal may be difficult. You won't be sorry giving them your business.

I went in on a whim to try and see if I could trade my current car for a new accord. He took me serious from the second I walked in and he and the staff helped me drive away in my brand new car that night!! Great, fast, and friendly service I will definitely keep coming back.

He worked very hard to get me approved. Being a first time buyer I was very pleased with his service of him and the crew at DCH Academy Honda. Thank you again Khalil! I will recommend my family and friend who are looking to buy a Honda.

Let's face it, car buying (or in our case, leasing) is not high on anyone's list. Not at Academy Honda! You're greeted pleasantly, treated nicely and get everything you want. It's the easiest car buying experience ever. From working with our salesman, Joe Guzzo, to working with Jenni in finance, right through to driving away in our new 2016 Civic, this was simple and straight-forward. No hard sells - just the way we like it! We highly recommend this dealership and Joe Guzzo!

I walked in the dealership and Jason walked up to me, greeted me, introduced himself and it felt like we were friends already. I told him I was interested in a specific model (2016 Honda Accord Ex) and that I had browsed the Web, truecars.com, so I knew what I wanted to pay for the car. We went for a test drive and while I liked the car, I needed to think some things over. Jason was patient, not nagging like some other salespeople I had talked to earlier in the week. I got the car I wanted, the color I wanted, and paid a fair price without being taken to the cleaners. I would gladly recommend DCH Academy Honda and Jason in particular.

My past used car buying experience was pretty bad and I wasn't expecting much different this time. I was pleasantly surprised to walk out of DCH Academy Honda with a certified used Honda civic at a price that was pretty much unbeatable. Gerry Bruno was my salesman and he and manager Jesus Vergel were great to deal with. They were willing to negotiate and didn't try to push anything extra on me. I would highly recommend DCH Academy Honda to everyone.

It was my first time looking at cars and Jason was very up front with me about my options and explained to me in detail the process of leasing vs financing. I ended up leasing because it was the best option for me. I have to say it was a very smart decision and I love my new car. I never felt like I was being pushed into an offer that I wasn't comfortable with. Jason was very patient with my decision making which put me at ease. He was very kind and helpful throughout the whole process. I would definitely recommend him to anyone who is buying a car for the first time and are unsure of their options. Thanks Jason!

I was referred to Joe thru a co-worker of mine who purchased 3 cars from Joe. Needless to say, I was not disappointed!Joe was knowledgable, friendly, and soft spoken. He did not try to push us or over sell us on getting a car at that precise moment and worked extra hard on getting a deal for us that we were happy with. In all my years of buying or leasing cars, Joe is, by far, the best we've had and we will recommend him to anyone looking for a car!Joe is an asset to DCH!!!

We had to purchase a replacement car for our daughter. She had an accident and totaled the car and we needed a new one quickly.

We will be back!

This has been my 5th time dealing with DCH over the last few years. Each time I request a quote from Mark Kamatoy, he is always prompt and courteous and this is the only dealer in the area that actually provides an e-mail breakdown of the fees and taxes. There were no surprise or errors being made, no bait and switch tactics being utilized here. Just pure straightforwardness and promises that were delivered on time. Mark handed off my internet deal to Joseph Guzzo who does his very best to ensure the deal goes as smoothly as possible with no sales pressure tactics of buying any extras. Both Mark and Joseph truly listen to the customer needs and desires. They do not push existing inventory onto the customer. They do the right thing by only getting a vehicle that the customer wants. I know this is hard to believe but other dealers do not always follow this. Other dealers only push existing inventory and try to avoid the locate. This has been my 2nd interaction with Joseph and he puts the customer at ease. He is informative and is patient with the customer throughout the entire sales process from demonstration of the features of the car. Both Mark and Joseph are examples of how to interact with customers. With courtesy, respect and professionalism. This is why they have earned my repeat business. Mark has been with DCH Academy Honda for years and he is there that long for a reason. He truly cares about the customer overall experience.

Went on March 12, 2016 to look at a Crosstour. Sold. No big deal. So I spoke with a couple sales guys and listened to the the others work. Great customer interaction. Nice people. High volume and busy.Quick agreement to my terms..no haggling. Got essentially what I wanted for my trade (over 105k miles on her!) Nice selection. I ended up with a gorgeous Volvo. They listened to me. They streamlined the process. I went alone. I am a female in my 30's and always felt respected and appreciated. No pressure.3 quick test drives on Rt 9 Northbound. I would send others there, for sure! Thanks to Jesus, Walt (sales) and Dave in finance.-kate

Knowing what car to buy is the easy part, knowing where or who to buy from is the hard part. From the moment I walked in to Academy Honda I felt welcomed and important. Jason Sepulveda was ready to help me find the right car for my son. The entire process was smooth from car choice, pricing to finance. Jason gave me his undivided attention taking the time to explain each step of the process. He took the stress out of the equation of buying a new car. I amgoing to recommend Jason and Academy Honda to my friends and family.

I was in the market for a good used vehicle that would last me a number of years. I was on a very tight budget with no wiggle room, and I did not have the time to play games, sitting at a salesperson's desk while he/she ran back and forth to his/her sales manager for the best price nor did I have time to listen to them while they tried to sell me on a vehicle that was outside my price range. I emailed this dealership (as well as many others) and indicated what cars I was interested in (I had done preliminary work ferreting out possible vehicles to look at using AutoTrader.com and CarGurus.com) and asked them to give me their best out-the-door price for each. I explained in my email that I was on a tight budget (I told them in no uncertain terms my not-to-exceed out-the-door price) and that I had little time to find a car (had only a few days) and that I was not wasting time going to dealerships to "talk." This dealership, and particularly Veronica Galluccio, were extremely responsive. I went to the dealership with a particular car to look at in my price range after having heard back from them. While the car I went to look at didn't end up being "the one," Veronica, who had listened to me, showed me another car that had just come in that was in my price range and met my requirements. Well, as they say, "the rest is history." The dealership, and particularly Veronica and her sales manager, were very attentive and honest; they didn't waste my time showing me vehicles that I couldn't afford, and they delivered everything they said they would. I would recommend this dealership and particularly Veronica without hesitation. Veronica even came in on her day off to deliver the car to me because I had to get the car on that particular day. Unfortunately, I don't remember the name of the gentleman who spoke to me about the extended warranties and did a bit more paperwork with me, but what I did appreciate about him was that he didn't give me the usual hard sell to buy a warranty -- he gave me the facts, the associated costs and then left me to decide.

Minimal haggling and walked away with a good deal for a 2016 Honda Civic. Johnny our salesman and Paul the finance person were very professional and were not pushy. Johnny simplified the process by asking what color we were looking for and pulled up with the exact model and color for me to test drive. Also they honored the internet price that Lisa gave me with minimal haggling. All in all a good experience.

I normally don't make it a point to carve out time in my busy schedule to write reviews. However, the service we were provided with at DCH Academy by Ron Rajnai was exceptional & beyond worthy of a five star review. It's the least I could do for the way he went above and beyond for us. Extremely professional, helpful, knowledgable, etc. We stopped in to look at the 2016 Honda Pilot Touring & get some information on it. After Ron patiently spent 2 hours with us going over all options on a busy Saturday afternoon we left without signing anything because we needed more time to think. We had more questions later that evening and he was on the phone with us at 9:00pm on a Saturday night. I even shopped around and went to another Honda dealer to see if we could get a better deal. After an hour at a different dealership the sales associate shook my hand and said unfortunately we're unable to come close to the deal DCH Academy is giving you. A week later I'm driving our brand new Touring & in love with it. Thank you Ron & DCH Academy for such a painless experience.

I've always felt hesitant about dealers and heard all the horror stories about them but I needed a new car and wanted to see how this dealer would be. From the moment I walked in they made me feel welcomed. I was greeted by Paul Aweeky and from the moment I told him what I wanted he got straight to work. He was amazing and helped me thoroughly with the whole process he helped me get the best deal possible especially being that it was my first time getting a brand new car. He was all about making me happy and making sure I was getting what I wanted in the car and I love my 2016 Honda Accord sport it's everything I wanted and I needed a reliable car being a nurse and having to travel far for work. Im super happy with my purchase, I recommend this dealer to anyone... And I recommend Paul ! I will be coming back in the future !!

I had the pleasure of working with Joe Guzzo in arranging the lease for my new CRV. Joe was extremely personable, offering reliable insight, both personal and professional, to assist me in making the best decisions for myself; qualities which are invaluable in an excellent salesman. After frustrating experiences with other dealerships, Joe was truly a breath of fresh air. His work was efficient and his personality pleasant, allowing me to leave a happy customer with no headaches or haggling involved. I can't say enough about how stress-free Joe and DCH made my experience and how appreciative I am for those very reasons. Highly recommend this dealership to anyone in the market!

I purchased a pre owned Honda CRV 2013 model from DCH Academy Honda. As soon as I purchased the car, I felt its a great deal as it was fantastic car to own. After completing the test drive, I had made sure that all questions about the car conditions are asked. I had specifically asked about the car s battery condition. Sales representative Veronica G had given me a battery test certificate as "good". I got the car home and parked it. Next morning when I tried to start the car, it did not start at all. I called the dealer and they jump start the car. I thought its one off thing and continued. But same problem occurred exactly after a week. They again sent a guy to jump start. I took the car to dealer service station and they told me battery needs a replacement. He showed me the same test that had been done and the values were exactly the same. I had to spend $140 for the battery and painful days when it did not start twice. Why did the dealer replace battery before? When I went to inquire about the same, all Veronica G had to say was "she is not the mechanic" with attitude. They have great cars, but choose your sales rep with proper care who is more friendly and gives good suggestions. Sales rep is not doing any favor to us, its our own money which we are investing on a car and good, smiling friendly sales representative will give you better satisfaction after you complete the deal. Nitin - Manager is responsive and helped me in sending a mechanic to jump start the car twice. But I did not like his blaming on me, keeping the car lights/doors and other electrical components turned on, as I have driven car for last ten years and I know what to switch off when I park the car overnight. Overall an average experience, but pre-owned Honda cars here are very good as we are 3 guys who have purchased 3 cars in 6 months from the same dealer.

I had a lot of questions about the car/its features/its overall value, and Enrique offered a lot of good information as well as good questions to help him understand what I'm looking for. He was not pushy at all and I felt he wanted me to make a good decision. He called me up a few times & offered additional information. Would highly recommend working with him! Thank you Enrique!

So I went into DCH on a Saturday and had the pleasure of dealing with Mr. Gerry Bruno. My fiance and I had very basic yet specific needs....a decent used car with little mileage. We ended up in the driving seat of a very nice, well kept Honda civic. From the color, to the way it drives, to the mileage we were happy. Considering that it was a used car I was very impressed with the way the car was taken care of. Gerry really took his time to accommodate our needs. Of course we all know that car dealerships are usually an all day affair, but this wasn't too crazy it was quick considering. Our finance guy Dave was also very informative and accommodating. If you want a great used car and want to get it in a painless way then Gerry is your guy. He just put on my plates for me in literally 5 minutes and I am thrilled with our Honda Civic. Thanks DCH!!!!-Shannon

I recently bought a used Honda Odyssey EX-L (31,000 miles) from Veronica Galluccio and the team at DCH Aademy Honda in Old Bridge, NJ. I was greeted immediately, shown three different Odysseys, and test drove one with Veronica. She was knowledgeable about the vehicle and its options, and she and her manager negotiated a great price for me. I was treated very respectfully all along the way, not "used car salesman" tactics, just straight up communications. I wholeheartedly recommend DCH and Veronica, and the F&I person, Jason (Trotta?), was also excellent. The minivan is in excellent shape and still on warranty. All around, this was the best car buying experience I've have, and I've bought about 6 cars over the years. I'll be telling my friends and neighbors about my great experience at DCH Academy Old Bridge.

Had my 2004 Honda CRV towed into DCH Academy Honda for a new starter, that night was giving a call by Sylvester Brunlinski asking what the problems were. The next day was call thought the day with updates and progress on my car. Was a great experience dealing with a mechanic who took the time to explain and repair the necessary parts that were needed. Sylvester was a pleasure to deal with...Thank you!!!!Mike Mazur

All the personnel, beginning with manager of used cars, to his salesmen Mina, David the finance manager, and Aaron, and the extremely helpful and accommodating service department, especially Megan Giese. I have purchased other used cars in the past from other dealerships, and must say this group is far Superior.

I recently went to DCH Academy Honda looking for a new 2016 Honda Accord Coupe. This is the second car I've leased through DCH Academy Honda, and due to the excellent work of Dimitrios Roumeliotis, my expectations were exceeded once again. Dimitrios was my salesman and was a pleasure to work with - he did a great job of walking me through all of the possible options and prices, and was able to locate the exact car that I wanted. In the end Dimitrios and I worked out a deal with the manager, John Nguyen, who gave me a great price that I was very comfortable with. The car is absolutely fantastic and the process was seamless from start to finish. If you want a quality vehicle with excellent customer service, head to DCH Academy Honda and you won't be disappointed. Be sure to ask for Dimitrios Roumeliotis for a great buying experience.- Jake Hansen

This is the third car I've leased with DCH Academy Honda and every time I am assisted by Khalil Quarish. Not only does he remember my face every time, he remembers specific details about me and what I need in a vehicle. My wife has also bought a used car from DCH Academy Honda, and I've recommended 5 other people who've purchased/leased several cars from there as well. Not a single one has ever had anything bad to say about their experiences. My experience yesterday went as well as it has every other time. Khalil even saved me over a hundred dollars a month and threw in some more benefits for his loyal customer. I definitely recommend everyone go to DCH Academy Honda and work with Khalil Quarish.

When you walk into this dealership, ask for Enrique. Trust me, you'll be doing yourself a favor. He's very knowledgable and more than willing to explain, demonstrate and instruct the buyer on how to utilize all of the many features on his/her potential vehicle. Enrique made me feel comfortable, was very friendly and was persistent about instructing me on using my new Civic EX's high tech features. You can tell the guy loves what he does and makes it his job to know about the product he's selling. I give my buying experience a 10/10.

I found the car via ebay and although I didn't win the auction (it never reached the reserve price), in follow up communication with Veronica we were able to settle on a very fair price. I was an out of state buyer and after jumping through some some logistical hoops between my lender, insurance and DCH we were able to get all the details sorted out and Veronica was very patient with all the back and forth. When I arrived at DCH and inspected the car it was as described. We sorted through paperwork and I drove my wife's, new to her, car home. Between a quick test drive and signing paperwork with Veronica and Dave, the entire transaction took less then two hours which meant I was able to drive home to Vermont before the end of the day. All and all an easy transaction and good people to work with.

Throughout my total experience with the DCH Academy Family, there was a sincere concern for customer service and total professionalism. From my initial phone conversation with John Nguyen through meeting Enrique Castaneta on the test drive of several models and detailed explanations of the product line was excellent. The finance process with Jenny was with a non-pressure offering of additional services, which we purchased. Finally, to the post sale of the cars options. Fully answering all questions, review of set ups and a completely relaxed and un-rushed review of all equipment again by Enrique.

Thank you Paul for your hard work. You give car salesman a good name.

I purchased my first DCH Honda 18 months ago. Loved the experience! Was not expecting to be back so soon, but after my beloved car was totaled by a truck. There was nowhere else I thought to go!Gerry Bruno spent a lot of time with me showing me cars based on what I told him I wanted. He was very patient, knowledgeable and most appreciated, HONEST!I didn't feel like I was just a car sale, but he truly cared about placing the right car with me. Upon returning a few days later to pick up the car, it was ready to go and waiting for me!They went over the finances with me in grate detail. I actually left with an understanding of what and why, which is RARE for a car dealership. They wanted me to know everything I could about payment options and Warranties. I hope I don't have to purchase any more cars for at LEAST a decade, but I will always recommend DCH to those who are in need of a great pre-owned car.Thanks again! You guys turned a really overwhelming and traumatic experience into something actually fun and exciting for me!

I was reminded how superior this dealership is in terms of customer service when I recently purchased a used vehicle elsewhere. While this location is not much to look at, I was treated fairly and respectfully. When a major mechanical flaw surfaced just weeks after my purchase, DCH Academy Honda made it right, at no additional cost to me. I have bought many cars for myself and others elsewhere. This is the best dealership around. There is a terrible Honda dealership just two miles away in my home town. Totally worth the hour long drive here to buy.

The tire had to be replaced and they also found a nail in a different tire that they fixed for me. I would've been stuck again if they haven't gone the extra mile! Nick is filled with knowledge and was very appreciative for my business. Dch Academy Honda saved the day!

He was low-key and respectful, never once trying to pressure us into any "extras". He even stayed with me while I started the car and didn't leave until I was comfortable and familiar with the interior functions. Our experience was very positive and would freely recommend Gerry and Academy Honda to anyone.

Walked in without an appointment, Eddie Moy jumped right up and got the ball rolling. He was very patient with me and my long list of demands. He made sure I was comfortable and explained everything thoroughly. Eddie def made me feel right at home. At first I was a little concerned about buying a used vehicle, but face to face I knew I was in good hands. He worked around the clock to get me into the car I wanted, with the deal I needed. After my experience with Eddie, I will not need another car guy, I will def come back and check him out first. Very Professional, and very good at his job. Found what I was looking for and then some. Definitely coming back for my next car. If your looking for a vehicle Eddie is the man to see. Not my first vehicle I ever purchased, but definitely the best car salesman I ever had to deal with. Don't worry about your next purchase... Do yourself a favor and go check out Ed Moy.

I was met by a very nice receptionist who created a very pleasant environment which lasted through my entire visit. Ron Rajnai , a representative , met me, led me to his office and we talked about my auto needs. I knew about what I wanted so we test drove two 2016 Civic sedans, one with Turbo, one without. When we got back Ron explained and answered all my questions in a forthright, simple , easy to understand manner. I decided on an auto and Ron made the obligatory trip to the manager to get me the best price. He came back with a dandy (based on lowest internet prices ) and I bought the car. Now the fun began. Paperwork & financing. Ron's help and BEING THERE DURING THE ENTIRE PROCESS made it quick as possible and painless. When I got home I realized I didn't like the color, so I contacted Ron and asked him to change the car. This is not easy. Tons of paperwork, and physical work had to be done. Bur Ron did it. He was great. I'm not the best customer in the world and Ron had the patience and understanding to make me feel secure in dealing with DCH Academy. Yes, I recommend them (particularly Ron) completely. Marty Weinhouse

I just leased my 7th consecutive Honda from DCH Academy Honda. Getting my 2016 Accord (Sport Model) was easy, affordable and satisfying. One of the main reasons is their Salesperson, Robert Levine. We bought our first car with Robert years ago and go back every time a family member needs one. He's honest, friendly and knowledgeable. He takes the pain out of buying (or leasing) a car. His recommendations are "spot-on" and our decisions have proven to be satisfying. I would recommend anybody to him. We will be back.

Prior to getting my new 2016 Honda Civic, I've always bought used or got hand me down cars. This is the first new car I've ever purchased at a dealership and Joseph Guzzo at DCH Academy Honda made it an amazing experience. Joe was patient and understanding with me, explaining what the ins and outs of the different trims are and finding the one that fit my preferences. He also went out of the way to teach me how leasing and financing works, what to look out for and what rates/residuals I should shoot for. I was never pressured to buy but when I decided the next day to do so, Joe made the process quick and painless, had the paperwork and car ready for me when I got to the dealership. Definitely a great buying experience and one that I'll be using to benchmark my future purchases with.

Jason was so helpful & made my stressful situation smooth and painless..he even had all my paperwork taken care of before I arrived, so I can be in and out as quickly as possible. Jason, I truly thank you for all of your hard work & dedication to customer satisfaction. See you in a few years!!

My husband and I had been looking for an SUV for quite some time, but still hadn't found something we both loved. We came to DCH Academy Honda to check out a 2013 Ford Edge. Not only did we love the car, but we also loved working with Gerry Bruno. He made the experience of buying a car pleasant and stress free. Not once did we ever feel like we were at a "used car dealership"--Gerry was honest with us, down-to-earth, and never once pressured us. We did not walk into the dealership intending to buy a car that day, but we certainly left glad that we did buy the car. Gerry went above and beyond to make sure that we were comfortable during the whole process and was very open with us about the car's history. He made every attempt to reach out to us even after the car was sold to see how everything was going and if there was anything else he could do for us. Not only do I recommend DCH Academy Honda, but I recommend working with Gerry Bruno as he is one of the best sales associates we have ever dealt with when buying a car.

Edward was very nice and he knew how to make me Chinese comfortable with the purchasing experience. He explained every detail of the deal and make me clearly understand the whole package. Unlike my privious experience like you have to always argue with the dealer or try to not be traped in kind of schem. I personally feel he showed me what he have and what he really can do to help me save money and also give me the best car he have. So, I am satisfied with this experience and hope others could consider work with Edward to find the best car.

I just purchased my third vehicle from Robert Levine at DCH Academy Honda and couldn't be happier with my new CR-V! My family has been going to this dealership for years and have always had a positive experience. Friendly, fair, and informative service every time!

There is not enough great things I can say about my experience at DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge. Paul Aweeky was professional from the minute we met and did everything to get the vehicle I was looking for. Within 1 week he was able to locate a vehicle for me and had it shipped to the dealership. Having purchased many cars over the years, Paul made this experience so pleasant I would recommend him to anyone interested in purchasing a Honda. With 2 teenage daughters I am sure to be back to see Paul. Thank you Paul and DCH! Jose Monroe Township, NJ

I went to DCH Academy Honda about 2 days ago with my wife to shop and test drive the new 2016 Honda CRV Touring Edition. Before arriving to the dealership, I had called and spoke to Mark to setup a test drive appointment. When my wife and I arrived at the dealership, we had to wait about 30-40 minutes to go on the test drive because they were busy. Mark set us up with Tim Crowley, who is actually the salesperson from the pre-owned lot of DCH honda but came to help out on the new car sales floor. Tim Crowley is an amazing salesman. He is kind and caring, and takes his time explaining everything to you to make you feel comfortable for the test drive. He took my wife and I on an extended test drive and we had a great time. My wife likes the car, but unfortunately, because the car is lacking some tech features, we did not buy the CRV. Overall, Tim Crowley is an amazing salesperson who cares for his customers and I would highly recommend anyone interested in buying a honda to go see Tim because he will treat you like family. Even the sales manager Jonathan was a pleasure to talk to and was willing to help us out in any way possible. Thank you DCH Academy Honda for making our experience at your dealership a great one!

I had been to many dealers. I was looking for a certain car and color. I wanted to get the best deal. When I came to DCH Academy I met a salesman named Enrique Castaneta. He made my car buying experience very easy. He was very knowledgable and told me he could get what I wanted at a good price. Where other dealers had failed, he did exactly what he said he would. I am very happy with my car. Even after I recieved my car he still calls me to make sure I don't have any questions and to make it known I can always count on him for his help. Everyone at DCH Academy is very personable and helpful. I would reccommend this dealer and especially Enrique Castaneta to anyone who is looking to get a good deal on a car and be treated with respect and honesty. Sincerely, Lauren Clurfeld

This review is for Jason Sepulveda whom i had the pleasure to deal with. I had brought in my 2013 Accord to find out about my trade in options. Immediately i met Jason who helped me with my lease. He know the exact car that would appeal to me which i was instantly amazed by. The 2016 Honda Accord Sport edition. Man this car gets me nothing but compliments. The 19 inch rims are a great add on from Honda on these new models. The DCH of Old Bridge is always welcoming, friendly and easy going. Thanks to Jason I was able to breeze through my "sign and drive" deal after my lease swap. I recommend this place to anyone in the tristate area looking to save big money and score a great deal. Go see Jason. I can guarantee he knows how to treat his customers.

I have been looking for a vehicle the past 3+ months, I pretty much still haven't decided whether to buy or not since I'm still shopping for better appraisal and price on my vehicle, but, out of all the dealers in have visited, this is the best dealer I've been with and I'll explain why.veronica was awesome from the beginning, she was courteous, professional, fun and made the shopping experience easy and smooth.then, the manager came in, and unlike any others dealers in have been with, Pete was easy going, truthful and someone who is honest and very down to earth. now, do they have the best overall prices? nobetter appraisal for my vehicle? nodid I purchase a vehicle? nobut, I automatically put them in my favorite because of the treatment and how well the received my inquiry and answer my questions etc...I felt like I could ask and talk to them without any pressure other dealers put on you.I'd definitely recommend this place, these people are good to deal with and very friendly. they'll help as much as they can in order to please you and make you feel at ease.I will post another review if I decide to purchase the car from them, but if it wasn't meant to be, I'd still recommend people to go and see for themselves the good experience I had.

Though they did not have the car with our specifications in their inventory, he worked hard in finding our vehicle within 24 hours. There was absolutely no pressure sales tactics and experience was very smooth.Additionally, they have arranged the required financing with very reasonable rates. We highly recommend this dealer for any prospective new car buyers.

The truck, an '05 Ford 150 STX Step-side with 119,000 miles, was a recent trade-in and had only been on the lot for three days prior, and listed the day before. We called up DCH and got their phone coordinator Ken, he was more than helpful in fielding our questions about the truck, namely if the truck had a hitch. Ken told us all we needed to know and we told him we'd be out there in thirty minutes. The truck was listed for $10,000 and without research I knew that was a great starting price, when checking KBB, Edmunds, and the NADAguides, I saw it was on average $1500 below what was to be expected. We got there and were greeted by Sales Associate Timothy Crowley and he brought us out to the truck, not only was it a great deal, but the truck was in great condition internally and externally with nary a spot of rust. Timothy pulled up the free CarFax they offer and explained ran through the vehicles entire history with us making sure he explained everything we asked. He was very generous when it came to negotiating and we settled at $9300 and 4 new tires, needless to say a great price, especially so, when DCH has their own onsite mechanic that will evaluate the car and fix everything and anything, if the car is in unrepairable condition they will simply not sell it, leaving no issues, slimy sales tactics, or future worries that other dealers have. I'd recommend you ask for Timothy upon entering the facility, with roughly 20 years of experience, it really showed, we are very pleased with price and process. Go to DCH for great service, prices, and automobiles. -AJ

Such a fast and pain free experience. The DCH Team made me feel comfortable every step of the way! Love my Honda Civic LX! From the door Ron was straight forward and friendly eager to get me the best deal possible. Every step of the way was explained to me and I never felt overwhelmed or confused. I was able to leave the dealership with a beautiful new car that I love and knowing that I had found a place where after my 39 months are up, I will once again lease another car. Such an amazing place compared to other car dealerships I had visited. I appreciate all of the help I received from Ron and Joe in financing immensely.

I was contacted by the dealership the very next day i made an inquiry thru the "Costco car buying program" . the Rep's name was Patrick Corley, a very attentive and an easy going rep, who got on the case immediately to find me the pilot with the trim i requested. i didn't even visit the showroom until the car was ready for delivery. the deal was negotiated over the phone/ email. a couple of days later ( a bit earlier than i was told), Patrick called me to tell me my pilot was ready. I showed up at the dealership and he had everything ready to go. everything i asked for, and everything Patrick promised me over the phone was satisfied during that visit. i can say that this was the least stressful car buying experience i ever had. forgot to mention that, through the Costco program, DCH Academy honda was able to beat 3 different local dealers by a respectful margin. i recommend them if you are shopping for a Honda in the central jersey area.

DCH Honda Academy is a great dealership with very friendly staff. Our sales rep was Ron. Ron was very knowledgeable about the vehicles and features. He was a no BS kind of guy. When dealing with him he does not implement the pressure selling tactics that everyone hates and encountered before at other dealerships. We got a great deal on a Honda Accord EX with Sensing Technology. Oh, and they gave us a very fair value on our trade in too. Very happy with the car and service.

I dealt with a salesman by the name of Khalil Quraishi and when I walked in he was passing by doing something else and he stopped to asked if I needed help and I being weary of salesman hesitantly said yes. After I told about the runaround I got at Freehold Honda, where I was a returning customer and leased my last 4 vehicles, he said I never knock or berate my competition and I will try to make your car buying experience more pleasurable and he did. With very little negotiating the deal was done in 20 minutes when at the other dealer it took two visits with hours of haggling and being offered a ridiculous price on a demo when I got a new CRV Touring model at a much cheaper price.

Robert Levine the best car salesman I ever had! He took the time to help me decide which car would be best for me. Very knowledgeable, guided me to the right car for my situation, not what was the most money.

Ash Saadeh assisted my dad with finding a Honda HRV. Even though my dad is very particular and spends considerable time weighing in options and costs, Ash exhibited patience and courtesy throughout. He was able to satisfy my dad's needs at the price that my dad appreciated, which is a feat in itself.

I have no complaints. The car was as described. Quick check out. Everyone was very accommodating, friendly, and professional. I would definitely recommend this dealership. This dealership was much better than the last one I bought a car.

My wife and I wanted to purchase a 7-seater vehicle and had been debating between the Pilot Touring Elite and the Odyssey Touring Elite. So I went through the Costco auto website and asked for a quote for the two vehicles. I received an email from Kylie O'Rourke with the pricing information and a call asking if I would like to come in for a test drive. During the call I confirmed that I would like to test drive the Pilot and the Odyssey and fixed an appointment for 4 pm.We live in the princeton area and had a 40 minute drive to the dealership. After we arrived at the dealership we had to wait around and check up multiple times on whether a sales agent could help us. After waiting for about 45 minutes more, finally Khalid Quarashi greeted us.I told him about our interest in test driving the two vehicles and he tells us to our face that the previous customers wasted two hours of his time - thereby hinting that we were doing the same. He then tells us that he has neither the Odyssey nor the Pilot available for test driving. He adds that we can come back on Monday (as if we have nothing else to do) for a test drive if we would like. Not only did we feel insulted, but it was a complete waste of our time. If both vehicles were indeed unavailable (I find this hard to believe, by the way) for test driving and if no sales agents were available - we should have been notified of this when booking the appointment.By I wrote emails to the sales manager (Joseph Scardigno) and general manager (Peter Ghaw) and I got no responses. Shows how much they care.Anyway, I have purchased a new vehicle from another dealership and really glad I didn't propagate their pathetic service.

Our experience at DCH Academy was so superior to anywhere else. We were treated like family and had the attention of many people to handle our trade in, show us the vehicle features, and understand our financing options. It was so well coordinated and had none of the chaos and frustration we experienced at other dealers. We were able to get more car than we expected at the budget we wanted. And they had the vehicle I wanted in stock so I got to take it home the same day!

We heard great things about the Honda dealership in Old Bridge , so we thought we'd stop by & check out the 2016 Honda Pilot. Our sales rep Dimitrios Roumeliotis was very knowledgable & helpful with the whole process . Joe Scardigno, the General sales manager, helped to get exactly the car we wanted & Joeseph Guzzo, the financial guy explained everything thoroughly. They made a great team getting us the perfect car !

Couldn't have been happier with how I was treated buying a 2016 Honda Pilot. They originally didn't have the car in stock I wanted but able to get it in fairly quickly given the demand for them.In one word, "Painless". Didn't have to go through the whole hoop and ladders salesman dance. They beat a few dealers on price and able to get the best rate for finance. My bank had good rates with my credit but Honda Financing beat it by .5 points.Mark was the internet manager I worked with from home and once he spec'd and priced it out introduced me to Ryan who handled everything else. Great team approach.Thanks guys! Will be sending you friends and family in soon!!

He was knowledgeable, friendly and I will certainly recommend him and your dealership to my friends and family. An excellent experience. Joseph Guzzo was also very friendly and patient with me throughout the finance negotiation process. Jesus Vergel was superb in coordinating the entire deal and making me confident with my purchase and financing amount. All three employees are a valuable asset for your dealerships reputation and success!Thank you for such an exciting and positive experience and I and look forward to bringing my car to your service department when needed.

Definetely recommend him and his dealership 100% to a friend.

I was in the market for a 2016 Honda Accord Sport. After getting the serious runaround by a competitor I went to DCH. They were able to put me in the car I wanted at the monthly payment I wanted. They were also actually able to get me the financing I wanted when their competitor told me it wasn't an option. This was by far the best car buying experience I ever had. The Sales Manager Sal and my Salesman Jason were up front and honest and I feel went the extra mile for me to ensure I got the deal I wanted at the price I wanted to pay. There was absolutely no high pressure sales pitch to buy things I didn't need and they got me in and out the door quickly. Jason followed up with me early the very next day to see if there was anything I needed him to help me understand in the new vehicle. I would definitely buy my next car here and will recommend this dealership to everyone I know.

I came in for an oil change and ended up leaving with a brand new car! While my car was being serviced I received a phone call to speak with someone about trading in my 2013 Honda Civic. I have been wanting to upgrade to a CR-V so I spoke with Jason about it and he had me right out and into a 2015 Mountain Air CR-V. This is the second car I am leasing from Honda and I plan on continuing to do so in the future. Jason Sepulveda was great and very attentive. He listened to what I wanted and what I could afford and had me driving off the lot in my brand new car! I would definitely recommend Jason and the dealership to others!

This was our second go-around with Robert Levine, back in February 2013, we leased a honda civic and honda cr-v, two vehicles from Robert. Recently, I had my mother go there to meet with Robert and she leased a honda civic in October 2015 and we just leased a honda accord ex-l a few days ago from Robert. Our recent visit and recommendation for Robert was based on the great experience we had from our visit back in 2013. We were greatly pleased with both his experience and professionalism with his great customer satisfaction.

I was in a pinch and looking to get into a new vehicle that better suited the needs of my family and a recent change of career. Every dealership I went to just wanted to put me in a car, any car, that day, make their money immediately, and made sure it looked like they were really helping me not themselves. Ugh. Terrible. I was so aggravated and discouraged. A friend actually referred me to Ron at DCH and thank goodness. He was so informative and straight forward. He genuinely wanted to do what was right for me and THAT is how you earn business and referals!! He told me some things I didn't want to hear but that were honest and that I would have heard in the end "by surprise" anywhere else., and a lot of things I didn't know were options for me. He was up front, no games, and dedicated. He found me options and laid out they're pros and cons. In the end Ron helped me make the best possible choice, an informed responsible desicion that I feel happy with and confident about. Definitely a good experience and one I hope others will have as well.

Internet sales director David Mazurek deserves kudos for his responsiveness and willingness to accommodate an out of state buyer. He responded to all inquiries quickly, with patience and a willingness to answer all questions. David offered, and did, drive our vehicle to another dealership for an independent evaluation and DCH Academy Honda repaired, without question, a seized caliper that was found during that inspection. He also took the time to pick us up at the train station and drive us back to the dealership. David then, after a test drive, worked through the lengthy paperwork process efficiently and had us on the road back to New Hampshire in no time. DCH Academy Honda is privileged to be represented by David. I highly recommend both to prospective buyers.

My wife and I had an extraordinary experience purchasing a car from DCH Academy Honda. Thanks to three wonderful gentlemen for their excellent service: Mark Kamatoy, Ryan Hoey and Joseph Guzzo. They are really exceptional employees within this dealership. Mark Kamatoy listened to what we were looking for and focused on exactly that. He was insightful and directed us to the vehicle that was perfect for us. No pressure or intimidation tactics to sell but simply gave us facts, options and worked on our behalf to help us close the deal. Ryan Hoey spent a lot of time explaining the features before, during and after the test drive. He made sure that we were knowledgeable and able to use all of the cars features. Joe Guzzo went out of his way to make certain that our every need was met. He provided quality service to get us an outstanding deal for our new Honda Civic SE.Danny Molina

She told me she will speak with her manger. After speaking with her manger he came to me and offered me a great price.I really appreciate the help if wasn't for her i wouldn't be driving off the lot with my dream car.

He showed is around the dealership and introduced us to Geroge in service and Sal in management. They were all very intent on helping us to stay within our budget. We will be going back there again when our lease is up for our next Honda in 3 years. Thank you guys again for all the help in making us feel relaxed and never pressured. We recommend you go see Jason. Five stars isn't enough for him. Thanks again.

Dimitrius and Paul were first rate sales rep. This is by far the best car buying experience. Dimitrius helped us with the entire process. He was professional and courteous. At no time we felt pressured and he worked with us on the price and at the end closed the deal. When Dimitrius had to leave, Paul jumped in and made rest of the process smooth. He even went out of the way and got hitch from my old truck removed. It was a great buying experience and I will highly recommend both of them and DCH academy.

DCH is a friendly environment from the moment you walk in. It didn't take us long to find the car that we wanted. The process took a little longer than expected, but at least we weren't stuck here all day. Thanks to the help of Jason, and his swiftness in finishing all the paper work process we walked out with a brand new Honda Pilot 2016 with ease.

Having bought 5 Hondas from this dealership since 1986 is a testament to the professional, knowledgeable, helpful and courteous staff. Robert Levine made this successful purchase a pleasant one. Paul Marques was knowledgeable and thorough in his capacity in the financial aspect of this transaction. Paul Rittberg was helpful as support staff. We look forward to buying Honda # 6 for our son and would definitely recommend the staff that assisted us to our family and friends.

Pat was extremely friendly and knowledgable with the vehicles of choice and went above and beyond in showing us various colors and models and even calling satellite locations to bring in the perfect vehicle for us. He was honest and open about the available models and deals. The process went as quickly as it could with picky buyers such as myself and my wife.

My father and I just leased two new cars from DCH Honda Old Bridge. Yesterday was my first experience viewing cars and getting into a lease. As soon as we walked in we were greeted by a salesman Khalil Quraishi, and he continued to spend over three hours working with us to test drive the cars, appraise our old ones, and worked with our budgets to offer us great deals. I drove home in my new car yesterday, and my father got his today, also from Khalil. He was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. He had a great sense of humor and made the whole process a pleasant one. The sales manager John Nguyen was also very helpful and understanding to our needs. My father and I are very pleased with our new cars, the 2015 Civic and 2015 CRV, and would recommend this dealership and staff members to anyone seeking out a new car!

I went in last month to purchase a New Honda Civic for myself. I had bought an Accord last year for my wife from DCH Acadamy and was very satisfied. I asked for the same dealer I had worked with last time and found out he no longer works there. I was disappointed of hearing the news but I was then introduced to Dealer Paul Aweeky and concerns I had quickly went away. He was very friendly to work with. He saw right away that I had done allot of research and respected the opinions I had. Paul answered my numerous questions and was very informative. He made the process at least painful as the car buying process could possibly be. What really impressed me is that even after the car price, trade-in, etc were completed he was still working for me to see if any additional discounts applied to me. He even made sure that my plates were on tight when I went to pick up my registration. Once again I was very satisfied with DCH Acadamy and it's good to know that I have a new "Car Guy" in Paul Aweeky. Many thanks.John & Roseanne Gonzalez

Having purchased about 14 cars in my life, I've had a lot of experience with car dealers. I don't know if it is karma or luck, but I am so glad that I found Dimitrious as a sales person. I just purchased my 2016 Honda Ex-L and Dimitrios was outstanding. A++. He honored a deal we made the day before, even where the paperwork didn't reflect our deal. The team went above and beyond to address every concern and I had a great sales experience. They had it fast, easy and with no pressure. Why can't all dealers be like this? Bill and Paul were also outstanding and took the time to really listen to me and to ensure a great experience. Call, write or visit Dimitrios specifically. You will not regret it!

This is the second time that I have bought a car at DCH. My experience both times has been a very good one. This particular time, my sales consultant, Robert Levine, was exceptionally helpful. I discussed several issues with him and he took the time to deal with each one. While the whole process of buying a new car never seems to be easy or simple, the experiences I have had at DCH are the best I have had in over 45 years of purchasing vehicles.

Walked into dealership for Honda Odyssey. salesman PAUL AWEEKLY showed me demo car. Took to his desk took all information. And asked me whether I can Afford it or not ? I asked him to get me the number as it was a demo car. Suddenly attitude changed and treated us like garbage. VERY MEAN, RUDE, DISRESPECTFUL, xxxxxx. Never go to this dealer. Manager didn't even bother to check or ask what was the argument about. PAUL ASKED US TO GO TO OPEN ROAD HONDA. As he assumed we were their earlier.

I can say that DCH's biggest asset is their employees. Especially my salesperson Kumar helped me a lot for my new car. Kumar is so friendly in nature. you can ask any doubts to him, he will reply promptly. Before going to DCH, i visited 2 other Honda dealers and was not satisfied with the way they behaved. Then only i went to DCH based on the google positive reviews , they received me respectfully. I would recommend DCH Acadamy Honda to all my friends, relatives and especially the new comers to USA.

I usually rather have two root canals than going to the dealer, so I went to DCH with my "I just want a decent deal (aka if the price is right it can be green with red dots for all I care)" attitude. Ron skipped the whole sentimental part and jumped to the numbers as I requested, he was nice, honest and so not pushy. I said I was going to think about it, he didn't give me an attitude (as you'd get some other places). When I called to say I thought his numbers where high we went over some additional options. I went back to the dealership and he had a nice offer worked out for me, he had talked to his manager, so I didn't have to go through the "theater", we got the paperwork going and left feeling well about the transaction. The finance guy (sorry, I forgot his name) also skipped the torture and went straight to explain the additional options and finish the paperwork. Ron then followed up a couple of days later to make sure I was satisfied with the car and I feel like I can call him or text him at any time if I have any questions. Overall a completely different experience in the best of ways.

8/28/2015: Purchased - CRV EXLWe heard about DCH Academy Honda over the radio. We did a quick check online and found it to be a highly rated dealer on dealerrater.com.We scheduled a test drive for a CRV. Paul Aweeky was our sales personnel. We had several questions for him during the ride. He listened to our concerns and answered all questions patiently. The price that the dealer offered was over our budget so we made a counter "out the door" offer. After rounds of negotiations with the finance team and Paul, we all agreed on the final price, which was remarkably close to our asking price. Satisfied with the final price, the financing process was initiated. As my spouse had excellent credit, he got one of the cheapest rates for that day's market offerings. To save time, Paul simultaneously worked with our insurance company to add the car to our policy and everything worked out quite smoothly.The finance officer didn't compel us to buy any security features or any add-ons and hence, we didn't feel obligated or forced. By the time all paperwork got over, it was already the dealer's closing time. But Paul stayed on and spent enough time to walk us through the features of the car. He also made sure that the car was nicely washed and cleaned from inside. Overall, we had a good experience with DCH Honda and would highly recommend to others.

We worked with Paul Aweekly and were very satisfied. We had requested a specific color which DCH did not stock. Paul quickly located the vehicle we requested and picked it up within the week as promised. When we arrived, paperwork was already in order . We moved without a problem right into finance and dealt with Paul Marques who was also prepared for us in advance, making it a smooth transaction. Both Paul A weekly and Paul Marques were highly efficient and courteous. We would highly recommend them.

My car buying experience was great here. I went in for a new Honda pilot and changed my mind to Honda accord. Even within Honda accord I kept switching between different models and customizations but the sales person (Dimitrios) was very patient and guided me throughout. I got a good deal on a new car, good value for my trade in and even the car financing rate was awesome (0.9%). Even my credit union couldn't beat that. But here's the best part. I had forgot to check employee pricing. Employee pricing was $1000 lesser than what I had paid for the car. So 2 days later when I reached out to them about It via email. They immediately called me to let me know that they will try to do their best to match it and a few hours later they agreed to reimburse $750. I had no hope of getting anything but was happy that they honored it. It's good to see that they believe in providing a great customer experience.

This is the fourth Honda Odyssey I have purchased new, the first being in 2003. I purchased my first Odyssey at a dealership nearest my home on Staten Island. I was treated so shabbily by this dealership that I had to take them to court and won the case. I brought my 2003 Odyssey to DCH ACADEMY Honda for service and I have been completely satisfied with DCH Academy Honda's Service Department ever since.I have just had another excellent salesperson ENRIQUE CASTANETA when purchasing my 2015 Odyssey EXL. . I would highly recommend ENRIQUE CASTANETA if you are looking to purchase or explore a new Honda.ENRIQUE CASTANETA was not pushy, he listened to what I wanted in a new vehicle and clearly pointed out my choices, at NO time did he try to push any extra items or different models, yet at the same time he was very informative of any questions I asked of him. Enrique made all of the preparations for my new Odyssey and the delivery went perfectly. I. WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND DCH ACADEMY HONDA AND ENRIQUE CASTANETA. Stop in and speak with him, you won't be disappointed.

Our salesman, Tony, and the finance person were both very kind and thorough. We were made comfortable in the waiting area while paperwork, etc. was being prepared. The establishment gets very busy, so it is important to be patient, and to appreciate the hard work being put forth for one's benefit. The long day paid off in the end, and we were glad to bring our newly-purchased vehicle home.

I was shopping for a new car and been to many dealerships, most of the them just try to pressure me into buying and kept saying the price only available for one day only. At DCH Academy Honda, sales Edmond Leung helped me get the car I want and for an unbeatable price. At end of the day, I am happy and drive home with my brand new car.

I went through the Costco auto program and was paired up with this dealership. I went into this dealership on Tuesday, 8/11/2015 with my mother as she was looking to purchase a new car by the end of the month. This was the first dealership we visited on our car search.We came in and met with Khalil Quraishi. He sat us down and talked about the car we were looking at, Honda Civic SE. We test drove it and came back to his desk to go over price. We kept asking him what the Costco price was. He would not even talk about price until practically forced to. We just kept asking what is the Costco price for the car. And his responses were all over the place, from: do you like the car? can you buy the car tonight? what concerns do you have about the car? All we wanted to know is the price then we could have talked further. We felt like we were just a sales number to him although he said a few times that he's there for us (which is a HUGE lie and seems to be what everyone says here which I will go over later).He said that they had one white Civic SE left which is the color my mother wanted. And he told us that we can put it on hold while we conduct our car search at other dealerships. He knew that we were visiting other car dealerships and we told him we had an appointment with Toyota the next evening. We thought about it and at first was against it but he kept insisting that there is no pressure to buy, just put a small amount of money to hold the car for a few days, it's fully refundable, and if we don't want, come back and pick up the deposit. Sounds easy and straight forward enough right? We thought so. So we signed over a small deposit of $200 to put the car on hold and left. In hindsight, I should have recorded our conversation.We visited a Toyota dealership two nights later and decided that the Civic SE wasn't the car my mom wanted. She was deciding on a Civic LX (one trim lower than the SE) or a Corolla LE now. On Friday, 8/14, I called Khalil giving him a heads up that I was coming to get our hold money back and they can release the car. He gave me a huge run around. And I explained to him that we're not interested in that car but after I get our money back we can discuss talking about Civic LX. All he kept saying is come in and we can talk about the LX. I was coming in to get our money back on the hold and then we could have talked. But he wouldn't want to even discuss giving the money back. At this point, I just no longer wanted to deal with him and his shady practices. I just said I really just want my money back. In a very curt manner, he said I'll talk to my manager and hung up on me. Luckily for me I had him on speaker with my wife there. And she got to hear for herself who I was dealing with.So on Saturday, 8/15, I came to the dealership to speak to Khalil in person to get my money back. He looked shocked to see me. We shook hands and said hi and he said hold on let me get my manager. I couldn't even have a talk with him about the situation. He just tried to hand everything off to his manager. I really just wanted to talk to him about what was going on and why all the back-pedaling now. So I waited in the front for about 45 mins to talk to Sal.Sal came over to me and basically said that he'll "try" and get me my money back. I stood there in shock. "Try"? He basically said that since I signed to purchase the car, he's not sure he can get my money back. I explained to him that this was to put the car on hold for a couple of days and that it was explained to both my mother and me that it was fully refunded. I asked him to get Khalil over and we can get everything straightened out. He refused. Basically, we left after he said a few times that he will "try" to get our money back and that he was here for me (sound familiar? exactly what Khalil said).I told my mother this and she's old-school. She's all about loyalty, respect, and trust. After this incident, she just no longer wanted to deal with this dealership ever again 'cause they essentially lied to us in front of our faces. For what? $200?I called Sal on Monday and left a few messages. No response. I called several times on Tuesday and left messages. I have a phone log of my calls and started to record my conversations. He finally called me back on Tuesday and he asked me very nicely why don't we just try and get you in the LX that you wanted. I wanted to tell him that because of what you guys are putting me through for a $200 refund, I don't want to deal with this dealership anymore. But I didn't. I just said that we just want the money back and we can go on from there. And we hung up. He called back again and said that they'll give me my money back and he noted that they didn't have to do it but they were willing to give it back to me. Really? How nice of them to give me my money back that was promised to me before. He said I can expect it in about a week.Fast forward, it's been two weeks now. I called yesterday and left a message with Sal and called today and asked the receptionist to give him my message. So far no response.I used to take two cars for service to this dealership and because of this experience I will not be going back. Also, I have a growing family that will be looking for a minivan next year. And you can guess where I won't be going to.I visited 5 dealerships on this car search for my mother and asked all of them about this situation and they thought it was shady.One other thing...try calling Sal, the sales manager. Out of the eleven times I've tried reaching him (I have a call log) and that's not including the numerous times i called the main line asking to be transferred to him just in case he has a different number, he has yet to answer a single call. That's what you're getting with DCH Academy. That's the customer service you will be getting here when it doesn't go the way you expect it to. And I hate to say this cause it's really a low thing to do but if you have a voice-recorder, I'd suggest recording every conversation you have with a salesman here.

I recently bought a certified 2012 Honda civic from the DCH academy honda on US 9, the sales representative Tony who attended me once i walked in was excellent. He was spot on with the options to my needs and he got me a very good deal on the table. He helped me to reach closer to my needs.Secondly the showroom operates very transparently, no hidden charges as a lot of other dealerships do. They do not add any hidden component on to the bill once you arrive at your number.I am totally happy and satisfied with the car, the deal the service. Overall it was an amazing experience for me. Thank to Tony Lopez and DCH academy honda for helping me in the process.

Although I had a very specific vision of the used car I wanted, Edward Moy called me not only once but 4 times with matches perfectly for me. With constant updates of possible cars that would match my request, Edward did all the work! Because I am very new to the car purchasing world, I wasn't sure of a lot but I learned a lot using him. Highly recommend it and Edward!

We are first time car buyers. After talking to Erich for the first time, we drove home in our new car within a couple days. He found the exact car that we wanted. He listened and responded to all our requests first. There was very little sales jargon in his responses. He was quickly available via phone or email whichever we preferred. He spoke to both my wife and I with respect. The experience at the time of sale was splendid. He walked us through everything we needed to know about the car and deal without wasting our time and keeping us at the dealership for hours.

We were so impressed with Erich Tam that we bought two cars in one month: First, a Honda Fit, and second, a Honda Accord. He is genuine, honest, and true. He did not play any social games like most other salesmen and Honda Dealers. Buying a car is no easy task, but Erich, however, saved us a lot of time by being straightforward and answering to our every need! He gave us a good value, not to mention fair, for each car. Please understand that consumers understand the car and price before even walking through the door. With the advent of the internet, prices for the car and automotive parts are easy to find for the public. Mr. Tam honored our prices as we found on the internet. Mr. Tam of DCH Academy Honda was more than understanding and kindly helpful. He did NOT forcefully push us to buy any unwanted or unneeded products or features. Due to our trust in Erich, we bought the second vehicle, not because we needed it, but rather due to his humble personality. Snaps to you, Mr. Erich Tam! Without a doubt, Erich has proven to be respectful of our boundaries and knowledgeable of our questions -- time and time, again.

Recently, i went to Honda dealership to buy a Honda Civic. The environment was nice. I had made an appointment and upon arrival, A sales person named Khalil A. Quraishi took care of me. The sales person was very helpful, kind and informative. He made my car buying experience a really good one. It took 4 hours to buy the car, that's the only thing that bothers me a little, but its not something big for me. I definitely recommend this dealer ship to everyone out there. If you go there, just look for Khalil A. Quraishi he will take good care of you.

For all the questions we have, he speaks from his heart about his own experience. Erich ran through the whole process from trade-in our old car to deliver the new vehicle in four hours. He organized the process well in a way that you will never feel boring. The new vehicle was delivered to us sparkling clean. Erich is truly a sales from the heart. I am looking forward to seeing Erich again for my next vehicle.

Good online impression and price quote on the vehicle itself + Surprises with unusual registration charges and fees and interest rate for financing !!! Horrible in-person experience and aftertaste of the car salesmen of old when they grill you for hours only to exhaust you and extract more money from you. Over 5 hours waiting for car delivery at the dealership. Will never come back there again.

Absolutely terrible service. Waiting 4.5 hours to lease a vehicle from arrival to leaving. Constant delays while workers standing around laughing and joking, while no one is actually working. Was told that the $199 nitrous oxide in the tire fee was "not negotiable" and "proven to improve mileage and reduce air escape from tires" which is all completely false when you look at the data online. Salesperson could not make any adjustment without checking with the manager - constantly - throughout the entire process. Had to sit while the manager told me about their "care packages" that cost an absurd amount of money for maintenance and repairs to the car if there is cosmetic damage. I have contacted the mangers multiple times without any response, and received an offer from Open Road Honda for $1000 less than I paid. I will NEVER EVER USE DCH again.UPDATE - A manager contacted my after I emailed them about the aforementioned issues. They were eager to keep me satisfied and fully refunded the fee for the nitrous oxide. I received a check 2 days after we spoke on the phone.

Enrique was awesome. The whole time he kept asking us what we needed and what we could afford. He did not make us feel pressured at any time. He was able to answered every question we had. Even though I asked the same question probably 10 different ways. Wholeheartedly I would recommend Enrique to anybody that was looking for a used or new car. He kept calling me for a couple weeks daily to let me know he was working on getting the color and car I wanted. The color of course was the hardest one to get but I am so happy I waited and he was so happy to help us. He's a true asset to DCH Honda.

The experience and assistance I received at the DCH Auto Group was phenomenal, especially for an anxious individual with the intentions of buying a new vehicle for the first time. At first I was unsure of how the whole experience would turn out, but once I was in the hands of my sales person, it was smooth sailing. I want to say that Joe Guzzo, my sales person, was extremely courteous, friendly, and absolutely real with his responses/opinions towards my questions and concerns, which I greatly appreciate. He assisted in establishing a wonderful deal for my new 2015 Honda Civic, and made sure my needs and interests were met. In the end, I went home with the best deal on an amazing car! Thanks Joe for all your help!!

Robert was introduced to me by the sales manager. This is the 10th Honda ive owned and first at DCH academy. I should have came here sooner if I knew how easy it was dealing with Robert Levine, he made the car leasing process painless and efficient. Went over everything in great detail and most of gave me everything I asked for. I would highly recommend mr. Brooklyn Robert Levine to anybody. Hes been there for 22 years! Go see him for your next Honda, you won't find anybody better.

It was my first time getting a car from a dealership and the task was daunting. I have been to a few others before and the sales guys often come off too aggressive and pushy. This was not the case at DCH Academy Honda. Edward Moy made every step of the car buying process as painless as possible. He is very knowledgeable, personable, and makes you feel like your needs are his own. Thank you Ed for my 2012 Honda Accord V6. It was a great and fun experience.

I am an experienced car buyer and came loaded for bear. Johnny sat back and let me run the deal which is EXACTLY what I was looking to do. I did a lot of pre-work via email with LISA of DCH so when I hit the showroom, DCH honored the price without trying to sneak other items into the deal. I was prepared to pay cash but took the super low rate financing offered. I knew exactly precisely what I wanted before I even hit the dealership, so for me Johnny was the right salesperson. If you like the Hard Sell and want the Hard Sell, don't go to DCH in Old Bridge. If you want a dealership that will work with you, go to DCH and ask for Johhny!

Receptionists gives out falls information makes me drive there and the service advisor tells me different. No help of any kind. Still waiting on a phone call back for the past 2 hours. Service is horrible. I would buy again but will never have my car serviced there again.

Joe Guzzo is my sales representative and an absolute pleasure to deal with. He is patient and informative through out the entire process taking the time to address all of my needs and concerns. Paul Papis handles our financial paperwork and is also very informative and professional allowing me to ask questions and addresses any concerns one might have.

I live in Freehold. When I decided to buy a Honda Accord EX, I contacted 5 Honda dealers in my area. Academy Honda gave me the best internet price. I truly admire Lisa Golembiewsky for her quick response, honesty and professionalism. I browsed thru Academy Honda's inventory (very few dealers have this kind of customer friendly website) and they had the car with the exterior color and interior fabric that I wanted. When I went to Academy Honda in Old Bridge, I felt welcomed by their front desk staff. Within minutes, I was talking to Mr. Enrique Castaneta, a very pleasant Sales Consultant. Enrique made me feel very comfortable by answering all my questions. He was very friendly, honest and helpful. And as I had expected, Enrique helped me finish the deal within less than half hour. And when I went to pick up the car the following day, Enrique sat down with me in the car and took all his time to explain every little detail about the car, before I drove it out of the lot. I feel very happy that I bought my Honda from Academy Honda. Thank you Enrique. I will send all my friends who want to buy Honda cars to you.

This is my 3rd lease and I must say the this was the best experience. I would come back and highly recommend this dealership and Joe Guzzo. Thank you Joe for lunch

I once again had a great experience throughout at dch. I came back a second time to trade in my civic for an hrv. I was treated well by Joe Guzzo the first time so there was no reason to go anywhere else. I called to get an idea of the process and was talked through it by Joe. He worked to ensure i was kept informed of when the car would be arriving. Dmitry was excellent as well in getting me the best rate possible at a price i was comfortable with. The great thing about dch is they will work with you and try to make the best deal they can for you. They put all the numbers discussed in writing and explain the process to you every step of the way and answer any questions you may have. When you reach the financing they explain the options available and it is up to you whether you want them or not. They don't use the high pressure tactics other dealers i have visited use. Overall i continue to recommend Joe Guzzo and dch to everyone i know looking for a dealer that will not only be there when you buy the car but also address any concerns and answer any questions after you have made your purchase.

Our salesman, Joe Guzzo, is the best! Joe provided all of the information and help needed in the most professional and friendly way. We love our new Honda and left the dealership with all the seats positioned and lots of the bells and whistles set up. Joe explained all of the functionality of the car and went out of his way to make us feel comfortable and confident.I'd recommend DCH and Joe Guzzo to anyone looking for a good experience and a beautiful Honda!

We love our new Honda Accord. Our salesperson Robert Levine was helpful and knowledgeable and we appreciated the fact that he didn't pressure us to all kinds of extras we didn't want. He even stayed late the night we picked the car up to make sure we knew how to operate all the bells and whistles (and there are many great ones) on our vehicle and promised to try to expedite our registration for us to help meet our challenging schedule.

This dealership was recommended to me by a friend and I would not hesitate recommending it to any of my friends or relatives. The price I was quoted was the price I paid. Joe Guzzo especially was very knowledgeable, professional, easy to talk with, and was always available to answer any questions I had. Joe also took a lot of time explaining to me all the features in the CRV before I drove out of the dealership which I greatly appreciated.

I hadn't planned on buying a new car just yet, but suddenly had to. I first shopped for another car since I had a good experience with that car in the past. However, I felt they weren't as eager to have my business as this Honda dealer and this salesman was. I left feeling as though I got a good deal and a better car than I had before. I'm very happy with my Honda Accord, and I hope it serves me well.

I purchased a 2015 Honda CRV July 18, 2015 and the sales associate, Michael Roberts defines the word professionalism. His knowledge, understanding and willingness to listen to what I wanted was first rate. Michael was forthright and provided a comfort level between sales associate and customer that is often hard to find in my experience of buying cars. I know I got the right car and the professional sales associate made it a more than pleasurable experience. DCH Honda is lucky to have an associate who represents the company as well as Michael Roberts does.

After checking out some cars online, I visited the dealership and was helped by Tim Crowley. Tim was great! He was thorough, courteous and pleasant. We looked at a couple cars, my son and I took a test drive, and then completed the purchase. No high pressure sales tactics or gimmicks. The only hiccup was the wait to get a temporary registration (which was not the fault of the dealership). I definitely would recommend Tim and the dealership to family and friends. S. Talamo

We had a wonderful experience at DCH Academy Honda. Paul Aweeky was our sales consultant. When we first walked in, we were unsure of what we wanted. Paul walked us through the different options and really explained each option to use. Paul helped us decide whether or not we should go for a new car, used car or leased car. He explained the highlights and benefits of each option and helped us figure out the best option based on our budget. Paul was very patient and very knowledgeable. We will definitely be back!

My sales representative was TONY LOPEZ, who was the first and only person to welcome my father and I in the door. He went above and beyond in clearing up any doubts and helped us make the best decision on what car to purchase. Tony was attentative of our needs and helped us even past closing time without rushing us to leave. I've been helped by a couple sales representatives in the past and Tony by far was the best example of a extraordinary person and employee! I couldn't be happier with my new car and I appreciate all of Tony's help.

My experience with leasing a 2015 Honda Civic EXL for my daughter was absolutely fantastic. I asked for a quote which I promptly received from David Harris over the internet. David answered all my upfront questions and provided a great price quote. When I visited the dealership David greeted me and assigned me to my salesperson Robert Levine. Robert was extremely friendly and made me very comfortable throughout the process. He did not have the specific color I wanted in stock but knew how important it was that I get the exact car I had requested. It was to be a gift for my Daughter's college graduation. I knew that there were very few left and Robert was upfront with me that finding one would not be easy. I could tell he knew just how much this meant to me and was not sure if he could locate one but that he would try his best. Robert kept in contact with me and within a few days located the car. There were no gimmicks, the price I qualified for was what I paid. Robert spent all the time needed to go over all the bells and whistles with my Daughter and made sure she was totally comfortable with the car. If you are interested in a Honda you would not be wasting your time at this Dealership. I do recommend you ask for Robert Levine, he truly demonstrated astonishing customer service.

I returned to Academy to purchase my family's sixth Honda. Robert Levine was my salesman and he was the consummate professional. Robert answered all my questions and explained things to me that I did not even think to ask. John Nguyen, the new car sales director, was instrumental in getting me the best price and was a pleasure to work with. At delivery, Robert went over all the details of the interior. He paired my phone for the Bluetooth system, showed me how to set up my phonebook and radio stations, and was the best teacher with the Navigation system. Paul in finance was quick and efficient in getting me in and out quickly.When you need a new Honda, you must come to DCH Academy and ask for Robert Levine. Together with his help and product knowledge, John's expertise, and Paul's efficiency, you will not be disappointed.

We are loyal Honda owners. This was our first visit to DCH for sales. As much as anyone dreads a visit to a car dealership, we were on edge and not looking forward to the visit. Upon arrival, we were greeted warmly and professionally. We were introduced to a salesman who proved to be knowledgeable and respectful. Our experience was top-notch from the salesman to finance. All our paperwork was handled, we got a thorough explanation of our car and a tour of the dealership service department. We left satisfied as drivers of a 2015 CRV. I would not hesitate to recommend others to this dealer.

This is my 7th Honda purchase but first at Academy Honda. Started through an Internet inquiry,then email correspondence with Michelle buchheit. She could not have been more helpful. She was pleasant.professional and extremely friendly. After a few brief telephone conversations, I went to the dealership and met Darile Rodriguez. From there Darile walked me through all my options. I drove her completely crazy trying to decide on colors and options. She always had a smile and all the information I needed. From there it was on to finance with Danny. He made the process painless as could be. The car buying process is one I dread. But I can not recommend a better place to buy a car. There is no doubt I will be recommending Academy Honda to anyone who is in the market for a new car and will definitely and highly recommend Michelle,Darile and Danny to them.

My family and I are very much Toyota lovers however because of our past and current service and prices at DCH Academy Honda, I, my husband and now my younger son all drive Hondas.Buying a car even for cash takes soooo long. Edward Moy made the day go by much faster. I felt like he was looking out for my son's best interest. He is very thorough and just a pleasure to work with. My son is so happy with his car. We got a great price. I would definitely buy a fourth car from DCH Academy Honda mostly because of great customer service we received from Edward Moy. Such a nice guy.Thank youWendy Kirstein

I have bought several cars from David over the past couple of years since there are several drivers in my house. I have never been disappointed. David is a pleasure to work with. I never feel pressured to buy a car I'm not interested in. The conversation starts like this: I call him and tell him what I'm looking for and then he calls me back with several options he has on the lot. I would recommend David Mazurek as the person to help you next time you are in the market for a new or used car.

I have been to many dealers over the years, but none compare to Sam. Same was not only knowledgeable about the car I was buying, but he also took interest in helping me learn the car and deal with the paperwork. He was patient and took my questions. Dealing with Sam was beyond a great experience, and I would recommend anybody who wants to do business with DCH Academy Honda use Sam. I feel in addition to knowing about the car the customer is buying, kindness and patience is the most important aspect to have. And Sam definitely has that. I will be doing all of my business with Sam and not just buying or leasing the car, but also when I have to call to ask questions about the car or need to make an appointment to get the care fixed or serviced. I truly have never had a more comfortable experience than with Sam.

All sales and vehicle associates were incredibly polite and helpful. Robert Levine, our sales associate helped us along every step of the way. Between him and Dmitry, the "closer"/technical associate, all of our questions were easily addresed, and the new vehicle's systems were thoroughly explained. I was a bit difficult, requesting some additional features (read: moonroof), but the boys were very accommodating, and helped me add on the extra work at the lowest possible value! Overall a great experience, and If ever I need another vehicle, DCH Academy Honda is going to be my first and last stop.

Robert Levine was the person who assisted my father with a lease he was looking to get. All the plaques plastered all over his wall and all the weight he has gained from the many years of sitting on his xxx did not help with his people skills. He was obnoxious, rude, and didn't keep to his word. The man claimed to want to show my father the latest car so he could be shown the latest features, but instead had us wait 10 minutes and came back with a higher price that was claimed to be bottom dollar. What was worse, was that when he was confronted for claiming to be a shark to aggresive people and that he was selling platinum cars, he clearly dismissed us. And much worse, because he didn't know how to react to people that wouldn't just settle without negotiation. Needless to say, a frequent customer from this Honda dealership will be going to Nissan due to Robert Levine's lack of people skills, ability to speak as a professional, and physical appearance...if you are selling cars at least make sure you can fit into one...that is all!

They were sales guys I felt that I could trust and did an amazing job getting us the exact car we wanted at a great deal. I would highly recommend them as they have been in business seemingly forever under the same management and I see that as a great sign that they know how to treat people right. Great dealership!!!

The Sales Dealer - Darile was so friendly and the overall experience in buying the CAR was good. Thanks to DCH for making my first car purchase with ease and happy to be part of their family.

I went to DCH after a poor experience with a dealer closer to my home. Sam Beshay was my Consultant and I could not have been more pleased with his knowledge of the vehicle and his salesmanship. Buying a new car can be a painful experience, but Sam took all the "pain" out of it! I felt extremely comfortable dealing with Sam and didn't feel any pressure or uncertainty dealing with him or DCH. Please ask for Sam. I'm sure you will be perfectly satisfied. Buying a new car should be a happy experience, and I can attest to that! I also dealt with Dmitry Rybakov, Business Manager, and wanted to add a word about him also. He was professional, knowledgeable, and was very responsive to my request.Overall, I am very pleased with my DCH experience.

I would suggest if you are currently shopping for a vehicle that you stop by DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge. I recently leased my new Honda Accord from this dealership. It was a pleasure dealing with all the staff members that assisted me. I was extremely pleased with my sales person Khalil Quraishi. He made my purchasing experience quite painless. Unlike other dealerships that I have visited, Khalil did not waste my time. He was able to provide me with the price that I requested and all transactions were completed in a very reasonable amount of time. I am certain that I will visit DCH again when my current lease is ended.

I just bought a brand new Honda Civic from this dealership and everything was great. My sales rep Enrique Castaneta made sure everything was processed quickly & efficiently. Would highly recommend this DCH Academy Honda dealership.

Many of the other dealerships we visited had prices that were not as advertised or a lot of added fees. Sanjay Chadda found us exactly what we wanted and got us a deal that other places could not beat. Everybody was very helpful and nice and we love our car!

This dealership is # 1 on my list. My sales person Khalil Quraishi was extremely helpful and made my leasing experience a pleasure. I would definitely recommend stopping by if you are in the market for a vehicle. I did my research at other dealerships as well and found DCH Academy in Old Bridge was a perfect fit for me. Khalil didn't waste my time..which I find at a lot of other dealerships where they keep you waiting and negotiating. He quickly got me the price that I requested. It was definitely a pleasure doing business with Kahlil and DCH.

Everyone loves to have a new car, but buying one could be a stressful experience. Enrique Castaneta from DCH Academy Honda made my car buying experience an absolute pleasure. My CRV-EX L is a great car, only fitting I got it from a great salesman at a great dealership. Will be back in a couple of months for a new civic for my daughter.Thank you!Eric & Hope S.

Tim Crowley was an honest and helpful salesman. Most car dealers make you feel like they are only telling you want you want to hear to make the sale. Tim seems to be very genuine and I would recommend him again and again. I stopped at this dealership about a month ago just to look around. The reason I went back is because there was no pressure at all.

After having dealt with Timothy Crowley when my Daughter needed to purchase a minivan and how trustworthy and honest Tim was it made great sense to seek his help when my we needed a car now. Again Tim came through for us meeting are needs in a friendly professional manor. We will be referring DCH of Old Bridge and Tim to are friends and family with confidence of their needs being meet to.

We went in looking at the possibility of trading in an 8 year old car and purchasing/ leasing 2 new civics. In most dealerships this would have been an all day affair. Our sales agent worked with us to get the numbers we were comfortable with and we walked away feeling satisfied without the usual back and forth drama seen at other places. Would highly recommend a trip to Eatontown!

Found the car online and contacted Loretta. She put me in touch with Ed Moy. Ed was easy to work with, no high pressure sales, just a normal guy. Stayed late to meet me after 7PM on a Wednesday. Finance was easy, no pressure as usual. Bendar apologized for coming in late, got me out in 35 minutes after we started talking.

We went in just to look for a car and we left after 4 hours later with a car.Ed Moy was amazingly patient with us, did not put any pressure on us and he showed us every single car we wanted to see and went into details for all of them.Made us feel comfortable and confident that we were making the right choice.The financial part was a breeze too and again no pressure but lots of laughs !!! Definitely going back for our next car and we will recommend them to our friends and family because they deserve the business !!!

I stopped by DCH to see if they could help me decide what do to about my current lease, I unexpectedly used all my miles before my term was up. John Nyugen is one of the most genuine people I have ever met. He gave me my options right up front so I could make a decision. After that he introduced me to Paul Aweeky, who couldn't have made me feel more comfortable. He is a true professional. He helped me look at what I needed and what I didn't need. I had a great experience I will always go back to DCH..

When shopping for a car, one usually hears of only the horror stories, and you are immediately put on "ALERT" when walking into a dealership. This may be true for a majority of the dealers out there, but not with DCH Academy Honda! In fact, it was one of the most pleasant purchasing experiences I have ever had. My consultant, Enrique, at once understood my needs, and provided me not only with professional guidance, but with kindness, respect and a true understanding of my needs. The consideration extended to me was sincere and I would highly recommend DCH Academy Honda, and Enrique, to my friends and family!

I walked into DCH to buy an Accord, but all thanks to Ron that I landed on a very good deal on an Accord Sport (custom made) that was on display inside the showroom. Ron was very helpful, informative and patient and answered all my questions. Bendar, the finance guy was very quick, clear and great to work with. Everyone in the family and freinds complemented me on seeing the car. Including the neighbours !!!Everyone at DCH, from salespersons to salesmanager to finance guys were extremely courteous and helpful. Once again...Thank you Ron !!!

This dealership was the only one I went to (after visiting well over 6 other dealers) that made the process simple, easy, and hassle free! Our Sales guy Joe, was just amazing. He did not try to pressure us into making any decisions and was beyond helpful in showing the cars...All around great guy.

He was patient and answered all of my questions throughout the process. He was well informed about the vehicles and did not try to sell me something I was not interested in. I financed and owned a few vehicles; however, this was my first lease. Rob made me comfortable with the process.I worked shortly with Paul to finalize the financial papers. He too was very friendly and suggested additions to protect my lease without being too pushy. I'll def be back in 3 years to see them again!

My husband and I were researching cars and had it narrowed down to three: the Honda CRV, a Kia Sportage or a Jeep. We had already test driven a Honda and knew we liked it but we wanted used and hadn't seen any that we loved aesthetically. We were driving to the shore and saw the Honda sign and decided to stop. Long story short: we never bothered to test drive the other cars. Why bother when you stumble upon reasonably priced used cars that are BASICALLY new? As soon as we stopped in DCH, we were greeted by Tim Crowley, who was so helpful, listened to what we were looking for and helped us narrow our search. He took us to the lot outside where they had SO MANY late model CRVs to choose from. All with low mileage at reasonable prices, all that looked brand new. My husband and I had decided we wanted black with leather interior, and OF COURSE they had several to choose from. Then, a GORGEOUS white pearl CRV-XL beckoned us from the end of the lot. Pristine condition, leather seats, fully loaded-- it felt like somehow a new car had snuck onto the used car lot. Tim took us for a test drive- this car was a 2012 but it still looked and felt (and smelt!) new. It was in impeccable condition, as were many on that lot. I tried to keep on a poker face, it didn't work-- we were sold.The end of the story is that we bought the car, but I want to mention an important part: We had our 4 month old daughter with us the entire time. Car buying can be a long experience-- lots of paper work and calling insurance, getting loans approved etc. etc. Tim was so lovely with our daughter, she was smitten with him, he was kind and fun with her and he was patient and understanding when we needed to escape for a few to feed her or change her. He made us feel right at home, and he took care of us like a friend would. It felt really good to buy a car from a man who you could FEEL was so trustworthy. He was kind, and he was knowledgable: with 19 years under his belt at that dealership, there isn't much he didn't know. It was a great experience. We got a car that was far more than we ever expected we could get, at a great price, in great condition, from a really great guy. I recommend DCH Academy Honda-- and TIM!-- to anyone looking for a car.

Buying a car could be so stressful and long, but not at dch honda, especially when you have a guy like Tim Crowley, he always make it simple/fun in a very professional way, I trust his opinions and I know I could always go back to him when I need to, he'll treat you like his family member, we would always go back to buy cars for our family from him, thank you Tim for been honest/loyal/real with us.

This was my 3rd dealership searching for the elusive 2015 Honda Pilot. I found it here, price was right and my salesman Ron was a stand up, no b/s straight forward guy which made my purchase effortless. Highly recommend Ron and this dealership.

Mark was very friendly and helpful in helping me find a new car. I was looking for something perfect for me and something in my price range. Mark was very understanding and was able to cater to all of my needs in buying a new car. He did everything to make sure that I was satisfied. Buying a car from DCH Academy Honda was painless! I was able to purchase a 2015 Honda Accord LX and I'm an extremely happy with it. I wouldn't have been able to do it without a great staff like Mark.

I just leased my second Honda Pilot through Joe Guzzo, and want to recognize him for once again making my visit to DCH Academy Honda, pleasant, quick, and stress free. Joe is the consummate car connoisseur. Knowledgeable, approachable, and professional, with non of the high-pressure tactics that normally give car sales people a bad name. My two transactions with him have been the two best experiences I've had at any dealership and I've had many in my lifetime. I recommend Joe highly to anyone in the market for a Honda. I'd also like to thank Internet Manager Mark Kamatoy, for quoting me a lease price that was hard to beat without any games, smoke, or mirrors. He worked to make the numbers work for me, and that's what made me a repeat customer. Give these guys a call. You won't be disappointed..

What a great experience for my daughter to be in a car dealer so she can own/lease a new car for the first time! She's been driving an old Honda Civic since she started driving 4 years ago and the Honda Accord she picked would be her first brand new car. Thanks to three wonderful gentlemen for their excellent service: Mark Kamatoy, Joseph Guzzo and John Nguyen. They were so accomodating and helpful in finding the right car for her. I would definitely recommend this place to families with young adult children looking for a first brand new car.

I have never felt so at ease making such a large purchase! Veronica had a way of making us feel at such ease. She didn't care that we had to test drive a few different cars or changed our mind a few times. She was patient, friendly and accomidating to our every need. We love our new, pre-owned Acura! Thank you Veronica Galluccio, we will be back for you and refer as much business as possible your way!

Veronica was very responsive, friendly and knowledgeable. And NORMAL! If you have been looking for a car you know what you can run into at some dealerships. I spoke with a lot of dealers prior to deciding to work with Veronica. We drove over an hour to deal with her because she was that good :) A family car is a big asset and I thank her for her help along the way. Whatever the dealership made on this sale was well-earned by Veronica.

I just completed a purchase with DCH after about 5 trips to other Honda dealers. It was tough for me to find a salesman i liked, but Paul finally grew on me. He helped me pick out a CR-V that fit me, and sales process was quick, easy, and i never felt pressured. I'm happy i finally found a dealership and a salesman that were worth my time. Paul even followed up with a a phone call the next day, very nice of him!

We have been customers of DCH Academy Honda since 1997 (6 cars purchased/leased) and appreciate the great customer service we always receive here. My family just got our third car from Joe Guzzo. Joe is the best Sales/Lease Consultant in the business! His transparent, honest, straightforward approach to doing business is great! I highly recommend this dealership and more importantly Joe Guzzo! That man deserves a raise! :-)

May 17, 2015
Just bought our second car from Joe Guzzo! Both buying experiences were what buying a car should be........fun and exciting rather than the dreaded long drawn negotiations. Joe is honest and does not put any presssureon you as so many other car salespersons would. Not only did Joe make these experiences pleasant but the entire dealership makes you feel welcome as an important customer. Kudos to DCH Academy Honda and more importantly to Joe Guzzo himself I am recomending Joe to anyone I know who may be looking for a car.

We had the pleasure of working with Edward Moy when shopping for a pre-owned Honda CR-V. We arrived at the dealer with the intent of just browsing to see what was available when we were approached by Eddie. He listened to what we were looking for and proceeded to show us what was in inventory that met our criteria. At no point in this process he did not try to pressure a sale or up sell us into something we couldn't afford. He even offered to pull up the models we were interested in so my mother wouldn't have be outside too long due to a medical condition. We quickly settled on a CR-V we wanted and the sales process was just as smooth. He made some recommendations on additional options but again did not pressure the up sell. After that he sped us through the paperwork without additional delay. Eddie also made accommodations for payment so we could leave the dealer with the car that day without having to physically return to the dealer later that week.

I was done within an hour, and he has called to make sure there have been no issues since my delivery.

We just made our 3rd and 4th purchases from DCH on the same night. Seems like no matter where we shop for a car, we always end up at DCH Academy Honda to make the final purchase. They're very helpful and courteous, and their pricing is upfront. Sam Beshay was wonderful to work with. He has very good attention to detail, and walked us through every step with great care. Other dealerships have a lot to learn from these guys. If you're in the market for a Honda, look no further!

Of all the dealerships we've been to, DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge ranks in our list as the best. There's a wide variety of cars to choose from whether used or new to suit our needs, but most of all, they take into consideration in meeting the price we can afford! We bought a 2012 Honda Pilot and believe it or not, it is as good as new! I thank the staff for their quality service especially Sanjay Chadda, who's a real nice salesperson to deal with. Sanjay, thank you for making our purchase possible and a pleasant one. You made me and my family so happy and satisfied. To me , when it comes to customer service, you are the best!

We recently purchased a 2015 Odyssey EX-L with navigation (we have two other Odysseys) from DCH Academy and first dealt with Mark Kamatoy who gave us the best Internet price in writing with all costs itemized, with no haggling and no hidden costs/fees. In the showroom, Mark greeted us and turned us over to Enrique Castaneta to handle the sale. Enrique allowed both my husband and I to test drive the vehicle and answered all of our questions and was extremely knowledgeable. We purchased the vehicle for the exact price Mark quoted and came back 3 days later and picked up the car! This was a fantastic buying experience and we highly recommend this dealership. We are informed buyers, wanted a no-nonsense/no haggling (let me check with my manager) purchase and appreciated the up front approach of DCH. We would definitely buy another car from this dealership in the future.

Bought a honda odyssey in February. went into delaership around 10:00 AM and it took over 6 hours before I was seeing their finance person who sold me hondacare almost at more than the double price it supposed to be.Later when i tried to cancel the hondacare "Rivera Marcus" their business director took months to get a confirmation that it has been cancelled. I had to follow up with him almost every week. Even after that when I called honda care they informed me that they never received any paperwork from dealer.Worst dealership, does not have any value for customer time.I will not recommend this dealer ship to any one.

I recently purchased a 2015 Honda CR-V from DCH Academy and had a wonderful experience. I dealt with Robert Levine who was incredibly kind and thoughtful throughout the entire process. He treated me with the utmost respect and was upfront, clear and knowledgeable about everything involved with purchasing the vehicle. Despite my arriving late to pickup the vehicle, he did not rush the process at all and stayed well after most had left the dealership to fully explain all features and functions of the vehicle, which was most appreciated. I would highly recommend Robert and DCH Academy for anyone interested in purchasing a Honda.

I came here thinking I was not going to be able to leave with anything. I had a trade in as well. I ended up leaving with a pre owned honda fully loaded. They worked hard to get me the best deal possible. And took time to explain everything to me so that I understood everything. It also was a pretty quick service. My last car dealership experience I was in there literally from open to close. So I was very happy about the time it took to get me a deal and get me back out on the road.

I walked into the sales floor in the morning, took a test drive and made a deal with Ivon and Pete in less than a half hour. I had been to 10 different dealerships trying to get a good price on my trade-in; Ivon and Pete made it happen no fuss, no anger, no mess. They did what was needed to make me happy and keep me happy even a few days after the purchase. Terry could have been a little faster getting the finance paperwork ready, but even he was just as friendly and not pushy. Maybe I lucked out that day (cause I normally do not like going to car dealerships) but they made my latest dealership experience feel like a normal everyday transaction (e.g. grocery shopping) and I would definitely return to buy another car from them in the future.

Our experience at DCH Academy Honda was a very pleasant one, primarily because of the excellent salesperson, Erich Tam. He was knowledgable, helpful, and very friendly. He tried to make the experience as easy and smooth as he possibly could. Although the other members of the sales staff may be equally wonderful, I would definitely recommend that anyone interested in purchasing a car from this dealership seek out Erich as their salesperson.

When you visit the dealership, choose Ed Moy as your salesman. He is knowledgeable and down to earth. Prior to arriving at the dealership, I knew the car that I wanted. We found the car that I was interest in. We agreed on a fair price, and in a few hours later, I drove home with the car. That is the way that car purchasing should be: simple and without hassle. I would also add that all the staff that I interacted with provided me with exceptional and outstanding service. I would recommend this dealership to anybody interested in purchasing a car from a salesperson that does not have the traditional car salesperson traits.

We went in with our Costco discount papers. Mr. Aweeky introduced himself. took the papers, came back in 10 minutes, and started to show us cars. While we were outside he started the paper work and then the financing. Truly, we have never had such a smooth car buying experience ever. We were very pleasantly surprised.

In all the years dealing with sales reps, you are by far the nicest, courteous and most informative sales person Ive dealt with. You answered all my questions and provided additional details that I dont' was very helpful. Also, you demonstrated some of the features in the car, which has made it easier for me to understand. Thank you for being such a great sales person and providing the best level of service one should expect!! Michele

On April 29, 2015 I visited DCH Academy Honda for the purpose of buying out my 2012 Honda Accord coming off Lease and obtaining a new 2015 Honda Accord. To make this experience more interesting I was also trading in my 2002 Infiniti I35. Since no one ever really trades in a car to buy a car coming off Lease it made the process a tad more complex. However, both my sales person Mr. Joe Guzzo and the Finance Manager Mr. Paul Papis made the acquisitions and financing in a very smooth and easy transaction.. I want to personally thank both gentlemen for their no nonsense and no pressure business like manner in how they provided me with exactly what I needed and wanted.

This was actually the best experience ever purchasing a new car. I went online, asked for a price quote, got a call the next morning, selected all my options, got an email with my out the door price, and the deal was done!!! The BEST part, I arrived at the dealership at 3 pm.... 15 minutes later I had a signed contract for the agreed to PRICE. No BS, no Bait and Switch. It was an absolute pleasure to work with Mark Kamatoy from Internet Sales and Joe Guzzo from sales. This was a huge difference from my experience the night before. There price was also MUCH better than any other dealer in the area for the same exact car.I had actually gotten an out the door price over the phone from DCH Kay Honda the day before...... I went to the Kay Honda that night, spent 2 hours getting ABUSED by the salesman and General Manager, and was finally walked. They promised me a price on the phone including all upgrades, fees, taxes, etc, and when I got to the dealership they presented me a bill that was $1500 more. When I told them the price their own employee had quoted over the phone, they kept fighting me telling me there was no way they could do that price. They came down in price 3 times, and still were about $500 over the promised price. I sat and listened to the sales people on either side of me with customers, and the sales people were pulling the same crap and telling the same lies. Obviously they are all trained to lie, cheat, and steal from the customers. It is crazy how 2 companies with the same exact parent company DCH Group, have totally different approaches to customer service. Obviously the management at Kay Honda needs a refresher on how to treat the customer. Morales, ethics, and pure being a human being are checked at the door when DCH Kay Honda employees arrive at work.

This was an AWFUL car buying experience. I was a serious buyer with every intention to purchase. However, when I asked to find for a quote and to take the contract home with me to review they flat out refused. Suddenly, all semblance of customer service went out the window. They were rude, they talked down to me and as a result I'm happy to say I took my business elsewhere.

I bought a 2015 Honda Accord on April 28. The salesman, Ryan Hoey was knowledgable, kind and patient. He spent a lot of time showing us different cars, new as well as used. He was not only able to fully answer all our questions but left us feeling fully informed. We were able to make our choice feeling very satisfied that we got a great car. Ryan is an excellent advocate and asset for Honda- this is the third car we've bought from him- I wouldn't buy a car from anyone else. Thank you Ruan for a great experience

BE READY !! After your purchase NO ONE WILL RETURN YOUR CALLS !! Registration Charges are totally different. Unprofessional experience ever !!Checkout/Delivery process is a Joke!! I'm serious ONLY 5-6 Hours(Advertised : less than 2 hours !!)Very Good online impression and price quote on the vehicle itself. Horrible in-person experience and aftertaste of the car salesmen of old when they grill you for hours only to exhaust you and extract more money from you.NEVER AGAIN

I went into Open Road Honda earlier and absolutely hated it .No body approached us at Open Road Honda and it just had a shady vibe to it. Open Road Honda was our first choice this time as it was only 5 miles away from where we live. My wife and I turned around and decide to go to DCH. This is the second car i have bought from DCH Academy Honda.The first one I bought in 2005 which we sold in 2009 and the this time yesterday April 30 2015. Peter George was our sales guy. He was very pleasant and polite to work with. He explained all the features of the car. I am happy and very satisfied with the experience. DCH Academy honda is definetly where I will go to buy my next car when its time in a few years. 5 stars all the way.

I am no stranger to DCH Academy Honda as I have purchased my last few vehicles from Edward Moy. I was in last Wednesday to look at a 2012 Honda Pilot. Edward Moy, again, was there for me from start to finish. I have never had the pleasure of dealing with such an incredible salesperson. He made, yet another, buying experience OUTSTANDING! He is kind, compassionate and understands the needs of his customers! He knows his job by getting to know his customers! Being in sales, myself, it is not about the selling the product it is about satisfying your customer base with the product that they purchase. You are happy; they are happy! EDWARD MOY, OF DCH ACADEMY HONDA, KNOCKS IT OUT OF THE PARK WITH HIS INTELLIGENCE, HIS COMPASSION FOR HIS CUSTOMERS AND HIS OVERALL POSITIVE ATTITUDE WITH SATISFYING HIS CUSTOMERS!!You walk into DCH I highly recommend you ask for Edward Moy. He is the best salesperson at DCH Academy Honda!!Thank you Edward Moy for satisfying another happy customer! I will continue to recommend you and DCH when people are looking to purchase a vehicle!!Nancy Biba

Strategy for internet to on-premises sales work BECAUSE buyer do not see sticker - BUT will certainly tell other buyers to beware. Internet sales should detail/outline the extras from the model when presenting the price being offered as well as the MSRP.

Leased a new Honda Pilot today. This was by far the easiest, most hassle-free and smoothest car buying experience I have ever had. Much respect to the DCH staff, especially Khalil Quraishi, a wonderful, understanding and professional individual who treated us like family. Not only did he give us a deal that was unmatched by any other dealership by a long shot, but he was beyond transparent with us and met our needs and budget. I definitely recommend this dealership for any future car purchase, and will definitely be coming back when it is time. One Love.

Ive purchased vehicles elsewhere and felt very pressured, however Dave was great in working with me and kept me informed and confident I was making the right decision. I will be coming back for my daughters first car!

I purchased my 2015 Honda Pilot today!!! I have been to other Honda dealers that have caused me more stress and aggravation than anything else. Academy Honda makes it easy and enjoyable. I got the price I wanted and was in and out super quick! I have to say that Mark, Essam, and Gercino, went above and beyond to make sure I was extremely satisfied. If your in the market for a new Honda, these are the guys you want to see! Top Notch!!

I was very pleased with the overall buying experience at DCH Honda. Sales person Dimitri Victoratos was very professional and courteous in the whole buying experience. At no point of time in the purchase experience, I felt pressurized or have to make the car buying decision in haste.Dimitri Victoratos assisted me and was an absolute gentleman and very patient.I would go to DCH again for any future Honda purchases and would definitely recommend DCH to any new Honda Buyer

I usually hate car shopping, but I had a good experience at Academy Honda, on Rte 9 in Old Bridge.The salesman, Andre, was polite and helpful without being pushy.I have walked out of dealerships before, but this is one I would be happy to go back to.

I bought Honda Odyssey EX from DCH Academy Honda. I requested Internet quote from few dealers in the area and their quote was the lowest. I set up an appointment to see the car and finally decided to buy the car from them. Even though the quote was lowest, they never pressured to sell anything extra and honored their price quote. From there, entire process was easy. My salesman Robert Levine was very knowledgeable about the features of the car and made sure I was happy with the purchase. I highly recommend DCH Academy Honda, Old Bridge if you are in the market looking to buy new car.

It was my pleasure to visit and buy a vehicle from this dealership for a second time. My dealer Edward Moy offered unparalleled expertise in the car buying process both times I worked with him. He was cognoscente of my budget and remained steadfast in helping me find a car that fit my needs and desires. He was friendly, cheerful, knowledgable, and worked extremely hard to make sure I was comfortable with my purchase. I am completely thrilled with my new Honda Pilot as well as my experience!

If you need to get a reliable used vehicle DCH Academy Honda is a place to be. I came last week to look through the inventory. I was greeted by Andrey K. who was very friendly and helpful. Andrey has spent significant time to show me around and answer all of my questions. I was very impressed by his knowledge of the vehicles in stock with different model years. I will definitely recommend to my friends/family DCH Academy Honda and Andrey's excellent customer service.

This is my 2nd Honda leased with Robert. I first met him when I met my wife, girlfriend at time. Her father leases or finances almost all of his cars with Robert. When time came for my mother to get a new car she went to Robert on my future father in-laws advice. He was very helpful and extremely nice. He treated my mother as if she had leased many cars through him before. Since that day my mother has leased 2 cars with Robert and I just leased my 3rd car with him. I'd recommend him to anyone looking for a new car, lease or finance. And we all know Hond makes the best product. So go see him at DCH Academy Honda, you won't be disappointed.

I drove from Jersey City to the dealership because I heard about there amazing customer service. I was amazed at how Dimitri Victoratos made me feel like I was not being sold but walked through the process. I work in sales and was very happy with his customer service. The service did not stop there it was an amazing experience from him, to his manager, and to the finance agent. I was blown away. The best part is I took my wife with me and they made her feel part of everything and never kept her in the dark. I can write so many great things but go see for yourself. Speak to Dimitri Victoratos you will not be disappointed.

I had a great experience here searching for my first car. My Sales Consultant, Edward K. May went above and beyond my expectations. I dealt with other dealerships who just couldn't meet some of my needs in a used car. Eddie was able to help me find a car in my price range, with the right amount of miles and the make I wanted. No other consultant worked so hard to accommodate my needs. I am very pleased with my Jeep Compass, that meets all my needs. I would definitely recommend searching for your next new or used car here. The staff is friendly and helpful in finding you exactly want you need.

I have been leasing Honda Odyssey for last 15 years (3 years at a time). Last couple of times, I have used DCH Academy and I keep going back to them because they are fair. Mr. Essam Beshay - the sales person I have been dealing with for several years now is an extremely pleasant person. I have no hesitation in recommending him. I know I will go back to him once my current lease expires in year 2018.

My third car purchased here! Sam is THE BEST and makes the buying/leasing experience stress free and enjoyable. My highest recommendation!!! I purchased my leased CR-V and leased another CR-V. If I'm around in 3 years I'LL BE BACK! Michael was also extra helpful, friendly, and not at all pushy, which I greatly appreciated. When you meet Sam you don't get "Are you ready to make a deal right now?" I sat in the dealership and watched 4 people walk out because of how they were handled. Sam will work with you to get the best deal with the least pressure. I strongly suggest you ask for Sam Beshay! And, no, I am not related! I just think DCH HONDA is a great dealership.

I leased a new 2015 Civic Sedan SE and couldn't be happier with my new vehicle. I traded in my 2011 Nissan Murano and was given a good deal on the new vehicle considering I had negative equity in my old vehicle.Throughout the entire process, Khalil Quraishi was professional, diligent, and very pleasant to work with. He made sure I was comfortable at all times with my new lease, and explained every in and out as I had never leased before.Overall I am extremely pleased with my experience at DCH Honda and will certainly look to lease/purchase from them in the future.

This was one of amazing experience I have had with any dealership. My sales rep Brian Davidson was new hired but fairly experienced how to dealt with prospective buyer who stepped in just to check new model for CR-V. He convinced me buying CR-V EX by explaining benefits over LX model I wanted to buy, and yes, I ended up buying CR-V EX with him (his first sale as well). Dealership is excellent as they don't play game of numbers much, but at the same time, they ask you to pay fair value (usually better than other dealership in local area) of new model. In finance, Paul Papis is the guy who did his best not only to get me better interest rate but also make you lure ;) buying extra GAP insurance to cover unforeseen events. Overall, he really knows how to tackle any BS question from buyer at the time of closing a deal calmly.

Dealt with Mr. Leung. He was very nice and friendly. Did my homework online. When I arrived, I told Edmond what I would like to pay. After little negotiation and a visit from a sales manager, he was able to give us a great lease price. Upon delivery Mr. Leung went over all the bells and whistles with my wife, who the car was bought for. I would not hesitate for us to use this dealer again. I am a loyal Honda owner for almost 15 years and Edmond Leung will get all my future business. Thanks again Edmond

All is well with the car so far, thanks for letting my mechanic take a look at it before the purchase and for the speedy process in regards to the paperwork!

I knew I wanted another Honda...so we went in to DCH preowned lot and looked around...within minutesTim Crowley introduced himself and started working with us. I felt no hassles no pushingand no pressure. 8 hours later, I walked out of there with three things, a car for myself a car for my son and a friend. Tim Crowley was gentle and I never felt pressured into the sale. I got the right payment I could afford and 2 great cars. I would recommend DCH pre-owned dealer consultant Tim Crowley again. I have another son maybe I'll be there sooner then I think ... Thanks again DCH Academy Honda.--S. LOPEZ

Loretta Lau and Joseph Guzzo were excellent, Loretta and I already worked out a price before going to the dealership and I never felt under any pressure to change my package or add anything that I did not ask for before making the trip to pick up my new CRV. The most time consuming part of the purchase was meeting with the finance manager which I did not understand since I had my own check but overall the people at the dealership were very pleasant and the coffee was great.....

Our first salesman was Nitin, he has moved up to management in the company. Now our salesman is Joseph Guzzo. We just purchased our 4th Honda Odyssey. The one we wanted was not in stock and Joe made sure we were able to get the color we wanted. I would recommend family and friends to go to this dealership and ask for Joe Guzzo. We also bring our vehicles here for servicing. Thank you Joe for a great, non-stressful experience. We really appreciate your help and honesty and we'll be seeing you in a couple years for a new Honda for our son. Kathy and John

The most important piece of any transaction is communication. Veronica Gallucio and her manager Peter Modzelewski worked tirelessly to ensure that I had all the proper information prior to my trip to NJ. I felt that I received a fair price for my trade in and the car I purchased was immaculate. Veronica was particularly helpful when the finance department became backed up and escorted me to the main building where I completed the transaction with little delay. This dealership is filled with staff that was courteous and willing to help not just me but every customer present during my time there. If I had any issue it was that the dealer should improve the building for these fine employees to work in.

Timothy Crowley was our Used Car Sales Consultant. We were looking specifically for a pre-owned vehical within a pre-determined price range, we saw a 2012 Honda Civic that was spotless with low milage. Tim approached us, allowed us to test drive the car, we said we wanted this car and from that point foward, everything went smoothly. It was a pleasant experience with Tim as our sales consultant, he is very pleasant, very knowledgeable and helpful throughout the process of purchasing this car. We will certainly tell our friends about Academy Honda and will tell them that Tim is the sales consultant to ask for. It was one of the best, most pleasant way to purchase a car. In fact, I am definitely purchasing my next car from Academy Honda. Laura Johnsen / Bob Samo

I recently purchased a new 2015 Honda Accord. The one I called originally had a deposit on it but they called me back and had an additional car same model and color in stock. I worked with DIMITRI VICTORATOS and he was great. Not pushy or trying to hard sell. We had 2 demands which he was able to make happen for us. I would recommend him to anyone in my family. Long story short when buying a car, do your research on price, ask for what you want, and stand your ground. If what you are asking for is reasonable then this dealer will work with you.

I sat with Robert Levine at DCH Academy Honda after visiting a competitor Honda dealership the day before. The difference was night and day. None of the stereotyped, high pressure, flim-flam I have come to expect from many car dealers that try to prevent you from leaving until the deal is done. Robert was professional, listened to my needs, offered a fair price for my trade-in and a competitive price for a new Fit - which I love!!! No pressure to buy that day, especially since I always sleep on it before making any big decision and after seeing the real Out The Door price. Bottom line, this is a great place to buy a car. Great experience, great price, friendly salesman and no regrets. Highly recommend you stop in if you are considering a Honda.

3 years ago I leased a Honda Accord at DCH Honda. Joseph Guzzo helped me get the car I wanted for the price I wanted. I contacted Joe this past week to look into getting another Accord. Again we spoke about what I wanted and how much I wanted to pay. I'm happy to say I picked up my 2015 Accord on Friday. Joe went above and beyond to make sure everything I wanted was in my new car. Joe Guzzo is a pleasure to deal with and took the time to show me how all the new options worked. I never felt pressured or rushed and I appreciated that!

Sales Consultant Joseph Guzzo ushered me through my first leasing experience three years ago, and I was back to see him last Thursday when he once again assisted me as I leased a 2015 Honda CR-V EX. Joseph was professional and patient in helping me determine what I wanted this time around as I ultimately decided to venture from my 30+ years of driving Accords into the world of SUV's. Additionally, there were a lot of new features since my last acquisition in 2012, and Joe walked me through them, synced my phone and generally anticipated some of the issues I might confront in making the transition to a CR-V which has many technological advances. George Gomez in finance did a fine job of finalizing the paperwork.If I have any complaints, it would be with the extent of paperwork, which, in 2015, should be more digitized. I would hope the dealership and the brand will upgrade software and equipment. So when I comeback at the end of this lease, it will be a breeze. All the folks I dealt with were helpful, including Paul Rittberg of the retention department.I would have no problem recommending DCH Academy Honda and especially new car sales consultant Joseph Guzzo.

Why does DCH Academy Honda have 5-Stars, where other Honda dealerships have 2 or 3? The answer is in the attitude instilled in the minds of not just one salesperson, but the "team"... act in a fair and equitable manner and treat every customer as if their sale is the most important one you will ever make.Having been in sales for many years, I know just how difficult it can be. An automobile salesperson has an arduous task that can be exasperating at times... trying to get back to everyone promptly; give them the sharp (often impossible) pricing they are looking for; respond to all of their questions and concerns; and throughout all of that, juggling the daily routine of handling walk-ins as well as seeking out new customers.With a young family, having a minivan is a necessity and we have previously purchased two Odysseys from Joe Guzzo and were now in the market for our third. For more than two months, Joe and Paul Rittberg followed our lease end and advised on the process. They asked what our expectations would be and exceeded them with hospitality and kindness.Both Joe and Paul knew how to keep a longstanding customer happy. Although they knew that I was satisfied enough with our two prior purchases, to be willing to drive over an hour to buy from DCH Academy once again, they and their dealership never took advantage of our loyalty, by presuming the sale was a done deal. Instead, we were treated as if it were the first sale and winning our business was paramount. There were no games, and what was promised was delivered... and then some. We were made to feel like more than just a returning customer, but rather, like friends who come to visit every few years. Having brought our twelve year-old daughter along with me, it was a wonderful experience for her to see that a major purchase can be made in a pleasant and professional atmosphere and that the world is filled not just with the lunatics that are in the news every day, but with people just like us, that are kind and caring and simply want to make a living doing something they find enjoyable and seeing that their efforts are appreciated.Indeed they are.

So DCH Academy Honda lives up to the dealership name. Michael Roberts has definitely represents what the dealership is all about. Deliver Customer Happiness lives up to the billing. My mother purchased a certified used 2011 Honda Accord from this dealership in Nov 2013. Now I am a proud owner of a new 2015 Honda CR-V. Thank you Michael Roberts. Thank you DCH Academy Honda. Thank you Honda Corp.

I worked with Dimitri Victoratos to purchase my 2015 Honda Civic SE. The whole experience from start to finish was pleasurable. Dimitri put me in the car at a great price. I never saw such a caring, personable car salesmen. When I picked up the car he took the time to go over the car set up my bluetooth and showed me all the bells and whistles the car had to offer. I will truly recommend Dimitri and DCH Academy Honda to anyone who's in need of a car.

Thank you Sam Beshay for your patience and respect during my car buying experience. 1st of all, this dealership were the only ones to have brochures of the cars which made shopping so much easier. Out of 7 other dealerships in the area and, un-be-known to us, we got the best qoute there first. Went back 5 times before making the final decision and there was NEVER any pressure disrespect or ridicule.I know the dealership from the service dept.getting work done on my older cars and decided to check out the sales dept. So glad I did. I feel I came in as a consumer and left as a friend. You guys are a step above!

I worked with Joseph Guzzo, New Car Sales Consultant, to lease a 2015 Honda Odyssey. Joseph was very knowledgeable about the vehicle and helped me decide which model would be best for my family. Also, Joseph was sensitive about my current financial situation and was able to work out a deal with me that fit in my budget. My wife liked a color that was not stocked at the dealership, so Joseph found the vehicle at another dealership and got it for us. I am so happy with how easy Joseph made this deal for me. I highly recommend Joseph Guzzo if you are in the market for a new Honda. Megan Byrnes was instrumental in helping me work out the cost of the lease and Paul Papis was very efficient completing all the paperwork with me. I am completely satisfied with my experience at DCH Acadamy Honda.

Finance department offered an excellent rate. They offered us extra services, but there was no pressure tactics.Of all our car purchases over 35 years, this has definitely been the best!Thank you Ryan Joey, Mark Kamatoy and Paul Papis

I had a really great experience purchasing my new 2015 Honda Accord LX Sedan. They had the best price I could find, thanks to Mark Kamatoy, compared to other Honda dealerships I looked into. I dealt with sales associate Sam Beshay who was very nice, patient, knowledgeable, friendly and helped me get a really great car that has great value for the money. He explained everything I needed to know about the car and answered any questions I had. I also worked with the manager Sal who was very accommodating and fair and was able to negotiate some extras on the car that are really great to have. The finance person Paul Papis was great too. He went over all my paperwork and made sure I understood everything I was signing. Everyone I dealt with was great and I never felt pressured to get something I didn't want. I really appreciate their professionalism and being able to make the customer happy. I would definitely recommend buying a car from here and definitely go with Sam. Thank you.

We worked with Otis to lease our new CRV. I am not proud to say that we weren't the easiest customers to work with, however, Otis was still EXTREMELY patient, kind, and understanding throughout the entire process. And it was a lonnng process for us. We actually felt bad for what we put him through. But despite all of that AND the cold and nastly weather, Otis still provided us with A-1 service and he took the time to show us the ins-and outs of our new SUV. He also called several times after the purchase to check-up on us. He understood our needs and worked to get us the best deal to keep us within our budget. I would definitely recommend him and the dealership to others in the future.

I live in Freehold NJ, so you'd think that I would merely go to Freehold Honda, I did and I was very disappointed. I went in on a Saturday and I made an appointment with a person, who I later learned, was merely the internet liaison, she gave me non-knowledgeable salesman who was servicing two customers at the same time, me being one of them. I gave him my true-value information and he kept getting it wrong. I've also had bad experiences with Honda Universe in Lakewood, who told me they had CRVs available but when I got there, they had nothing. I understand that CRVs are a hot selling item but I don't like "bait and switch" and being told I would have to wait 72 hours. I was so totally frustrated I went back to DCH Academy in Old bridge. I had returned my lease and Joe Guzzo was the salesman who assisted me. Contrary to Freehold Honda, Joe was extremely knowledgeable. My daughter purchased the 2011 Honda CRV and Joe made the process smooth. Which is in stark contrast to my experiences with Honda of Freehold and Honda Universe. I then returned, once I got my income tax refund and Joe had everything ready.He gave me a test drive and reviewed all the features. He reviewed all the numbers; Dealer costs, tax, title, etc... and he ensured I understood everything.The financing, as with everywhere else, always takes a long time and lots of paperwork, so I was there until closing. Joe didn't rush me off or tell me he had to go home, instead he congratulated me and took his time to again go over the features, especially the key-less start, which can be confusing, if you've never had that before. He stayed with me, even after the dealership closed and made sure I was comfortable with the features and the car in general before leaving the lot. This is my third Honda Lease. Twice at DCH Academy, I won't make the same mistake of going else to ever buy a Honda again and I will only use Joe as my sales guy. I'm also referring him to all my friends. He made the hassle of leasing a car much easier and comfortable.

We wanted to buy another car. We decided on CRV. Before going to DCH Academy Honda, my wife and I visited many Honda dealers. Most of those customer service people ae not friendly and wanted to deceive us. We didnt get much information from them too. They were neither customer friendly or helpful. First we met Sanjay Chadda at DCH Academy Honda. He received us so well and provided us all the information whatever we asked. He answered all our questions. He was so nice and friendly. He introduced us to Enrique Castaneta who was so good and professional. We felt very comfortable with Enrique. We had very good experience with him. They both spent much time in answering our questions patiently and provided whatever information we asked. We didnt feel hassle. They both are customer friendly and took time with us. They made buying car a pleasure. We didnt feel stressed. We got a good deal. We are completely satisfied with the deal. We recommend all car buyers to visit DCH Academy Honda and meet particularly Enrique and Sanjay. Enrique was with us till the deal was completed and all the documents signed. He even drove our old car to our home in snow after the deal at about 8 pm. They both are customer friendly, honest and knowledgeable people. DCH Academy Honda is lucky to have them as their sales men.

This was the best car buying experience we have had. Andre is absolutely fantastic and made us feel like we were valued and was also extremely personable. In fact, Andre is one of the main reasons we came back to DCH after going to other dealerships. Same with paul. Andre made the buying process stress free and Paul explained the paperwork fantastically. DC has two employees that should be recognized for their outstanding service. Recommending to everyone! I am extremely happy with the entire process.

I went into DCH Academy Honda unsure of exactly what car I wanted. Joe Guzzo was a huge help. He let me test drive the CRV several times until I was sure that was what I wanted. There wasn't that "pushy salesman" attitude that you get at most dealerships. Joe was friendly and dealt with negotiations in a professional manner. Joe was laid back, professional, and always greeted me with a smile (so did Andre- there's your shout out Andre!). Although Joe takes a long time at the photocopier and the fax machine, he didn't mind going above and beyond to meet this picky customer's needs. Everyone at DCH was extremely friendly...even Paul! I don't think I met Paul but I see his name in a couple of reviews so he was great, also! Joe never pushed for me to buy a car that day...in fact it took over a week of "shopping around" before I settled on my CRV. Unbeatable customer support and a wonderful experience...overall Joe was very personable and a pleasure to do business with. Everyone at Honda made sure I got what I needed...all the way down to my very own DCH Academy pen imported from China! Joe made buying a car a breeze and was even helpful when I went back today for plates! I gave him a hefty tip for that, so to everyone at DCH Academy...lunch is on Joe Guzzo for the next week!! I won't go to any other Honda dealer! Thanks DCH and especially to Joe Guzzo!

Purchased a 2006 honda odyssey exl from Tim this past weekend. Tim helped us get a great deal and was upfront about the car. The car was in great condition and obviously underwent a good cleaning and detailing because it looked wnderful for being 8 years old. The process was straightforward with no gimicks or games. I would buy from him again for future needs.

When I went to Honda it was not my intention to buy a car the same day. I wanted to visit different dealerships and see different make of cars. Essam Beshay, the salesman I dealt with, changed my mind. From the first moment I started speaking to him, I liked his demeanor. He was very friendly, but in a very professional way, very helpful, informative and very knowledgeable. He was able to answer every question and explain everything in a clear way. He was very courteous and very patient. As you know, buying a car for many people is a major investment and it is a stressful experience. It was very comforting dealing with someone who seemed to have your interests at heart, not interested only in making a sale, but in making you feel comfortable in making the decision. I would highly recommend Essam to family and friends. I believe he is a great asset to your dealership. I am sure that if I have further questions or concerns I can contact Essam and he will be there for me. Should I decide to buy another car in the future, DCH Academy Honda and Essam will be my only choices.

He was very honest and upfront which is hard to find when you speak to a car salesman.The dealership is a class A establishment and put me at ease and in the driver's seat sort of speak.Can't wait to make "The Deal" when my car is due back at the other Dealership.Best, Vincent Meli

My husband and I went to DCH because of their fabulous dealer rating. We could immediately see why this dealership is so highly rated. They go above and beyond to make your experience a good one. We purchased a Certified Pre-Owned Honda and had the vehicle home the same day. They really went out of their way for us. You can rest assured that this dealership will take the very best care of you. We worked closely with Tony Lopez and Jesus Vergel. You can also rest assured that if something goes a little wrong, no matter how minor...THEY WILL FIX IT AND TAKE CARE OF IT FOR YOU. Highly recommended!!

I had an excellent sales experience working with Khalil Quraishi at DCH Academy Honda, US Highway 9. Khalil is a very professional, honest, trust worthy and knowledgeable sales consultant. Khalil listened to my needs and requirements for leasing a car. He treated me with respect, like his family. He was very friendly and did not put any pressure on me during the transaction. Khalil showed me all the options based on my requirements. Once I finalized on the Civic, Khalil explained to me all the features of the car and took the car for a test drive. Khalil was very courteous and made the whole car leasing process enjoyable. Khalil followed up and checked if I had any issues/concerns after leasing the car. I am incredibly pleased with his service. I will definitely recommend Khalil to my friends and family.

I had visited other dealerships and went on line to read the reviews for a number of sales professionals. Robert Levine of DCH Academy had very good reviews from a good number of people, so I decided to give both a try. My personal experience proved that the reviewers knew what they were talking about, and the personal touch of Robert Levine made a big difference in my overall satisfaction. In short, Robert was informative, patient, friendly, and in the end, helped me secure a good deal for the car that I wanted. He listened to what I wanted and expected from a car, and then gave me the choices and information necessary to make an informed choice. He didn't try to sell me a car that didn't suit my needs or sell me add-ons that I did not want. He was both a professional and just a really good guy, as was everyone who I dealt with at Academy.

Erich Tam helped us on our most recent car purchase. He took the time and patience to help us to get exactly what we wanted at the price we needed it. In the beginning we told him we were just shopping around, yet he was very professional and took time to explain us and help understand the different choices Honda had for us. We got our car that same day!After the purchase he took the time to explain us the manuals and car features, he went the extra mile. Also we have to say the store manager and finance people were very friendly and helpfulWe thank Erich for making the purchase of a new vehicle, in a hard time for us, a very pleasant and fun experience!

I bought a used Mercedes from the dealership less then a year ago and they are frauds. They tell you anything to sell you the extended warranty and the tire package. However after selling me 2 bad tires(neither of which they claim is covered under the warranty) the service department didn't even call the warranty company and lied and told me they did. When I went in there the general manager Pete Modlewski(guys a joke) told me he would look into it and make some calls and would call me the next day. To which I still have not received a call. They just didnt want me to make a scene in the dealership. I will now be posting this all over social media not to buy a car from this dealership and going all the way to the top with my problems. Scam artists!! Sincerely Danny K

He was extremely knowqledgable, friendly and was on top ofd his game with rerspect to working with me to reach my budget goals while allowing me to give my wife a beautiful new CRV. I also left money and documents in my old car overenite and John was honest enough to tell me he recovered my documents and money and made sure he left if for me the next day. I would most definately buy another car from these two gentlemen. Whatever your paying them, its not enough!Barry ShainSales DirectorChampion Activewear Athletic DivisionHanesbrands, Incorporated

Great dealership. Did most of my negotiating via e-mail with Megan Byrnes who was extremely knowledgeable and attentive to my needs. She responded quickly and got me the best deal I could find in comparison to the other dealerships I was negotiating with. Once I get there to lease the vehicle I was brought to Edmond who helped finalize the deal and get the car ready without any complications or re-negotiations needed. I not at once felt pressured into making any decision I didn't want to. Would definitely recommend this dealership.

Before I drove from Staten Island (which is only 20 minutes away) I wanted to make sure that I was going to a knowledgeable dealership. First I called and spent a ton of time on the phone with Mark Kamatoy who answered every question I had. He then communicated with me through email which really helped me to have a visual breakdown of everything he was telling me. He was so thoughtful he even sent me directions when I was unsure which way to go! I then dealt with Otis VIdale who was amazing! He was so patient & really took his time with me. He made buying the car a pleasure and took the stress out of it for me. Michael was the financial guy whose honesty & fun personality made the worst part of the car buying process better. After it was all said and done the Manager Bill Lister came out to make sure I was completely happy which I was! What a great car buying experience and I recommend everyone in Staten Island & NJ go here.

We just bought our first Honda CRV 2015 AWD Touring from DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge NJ last week on Monday and would like to share that this was by far the best experience we've had in comparison to several other Honda dealers. Needless to mention that while we were in discussion with couple of other Honda dealers, DCH made us feel comfortable, gave us special consideration with time and value for money. Although I am not a rookie when it comes to buying cars, but from the very time we initiated our interest in buying car with the Internet Client Advisor Lisa Golembiewski and then after we completed vetting the quote and showed our interest in buying we were introduced with Sales Expert - Otis Vidale, who was extremely helpful and was able to quickly provide all the necessary details and paper work needed to get this out of the showroom and in our hands.We would like to personally thank the DCH Academy Honda wonderful staff for their kind and so special service, and must share that everyone I dealt with was professional and courteous from Lisa to Otis made my day as they both helped me in the best way possible to purchase my New Honda 2015 CRV AWD Touring - so thank you both. I pray that the blessing of god will always be with you and your family. You have wonderful qualities and excellent costumer service by far in comparison to any other Honda Dealer.

Purchased our 5th Honda Accord and came back to Academy due to prior experience with previous car purchases. Everyone at this dealership is very helpful. Worked this time with Andre and Paul and both representatives patient, worked with us and were not pushy. In fact, Andre took us out for 3 test drives and got the car I would up purchasing from the other lot. Please express my thanks to both of them.

This is our second Honda...but it is the first one we purchased at DCH Academy Honda...we'll be back again. We had a great experience with Paul Aweeky (sales) and George Gomez (finance). This team worked to make this a quick and easy deal. Paul was patient, knowledgeable and not pushy (and he's got a cute grandson...gotta love a proud grandpa!). We did the deal on Monday, picked up the license plates on Friday....thanks for the great service. Love the sporty new Si!***Didn't see a spot to select George Gomez, but I remember he said he was fairly new...he's a keeper...add him to the website.

We are so happy that we decided to lease our new Accord from DCH Honda. Our salesman Michael Roberts was excellent. He was so patient and very helpful throughout the entire process. He actually made car shopping enjoyable! Mike and manager John Nguyen were able to get us everything we wanted in our car, and at our exact price point. From start to finish, the experience was fantastic! We will definitely come back to DCH Academy and Michael for our next car.

This is not the first car I bought or leased from Academy Honda so they must be doing something right if I went back 6 times. Andre Yulfo was my saleman and he was excellent. He made the deal happen, gave me everything I wanted, no pressure and no bull. This is the kind of saleman that gives car dealers a good name. Would highly recommend Academy Honda and Andre Yulfo. Also the finance guy George was great, was in and out of there,matched my finance rate and didn't try to beat me down with additional add on items to sale.

Then when I went to the store I dealt with Paul Aweeky who was also great, not pushy with the sales and very helpful.I would definetly recommend this dealership and will return again for any future purchase.

It was a nice experience buying a new car with DCH academy honda, I was expecting that the salesperson will try to sell me a lot by lot of talking etc and thats the idea I had in my mind after reading lot of things online regarding car buying experience before I went to the dealership.I was very much surprised when I was in the dealership that it was not like that and the salesperson Eric Tam was very straightforward and explained all the features of the car in and out and made me take a wise decision in picking up the accessories I needed.I felt very comfortable in the over all conversation we had. I also has had a True car certificate and i strongly recommend all car buyers to get that If you can as it has the right price you can get for the car you need.

I was referred to Megan Byrnes in the Internet department. From the beginning she was upfront, knowledgable, and truly a delight to work with. When I got to the dealership I met with her and she then set me up with Michael Roberts. He made me feel right at home. He honored the great pricing that Megan had provided me with and went over every detail of the paperwork along with my new 2015 Honda Civic. This was an absolute amazing experience and I will forever be a customer of DCH academy Honda!

I went on Truecar.com and requested to be contacted by a Honda Dealership regarding a 2015 Honda Civic Si, within minutes I received several quotations of which DCH Academy Honda's pricing was the lowest, the quotation was prepared by Mark Kamatoy. I contacted Mr. Kamatoy and he set up an appointment to see/test drive the vehicle the very next morning. When I arrived at the dealership Mr. Kamatoy came out to greet me and introduced me to my Salesman, Mr. Paul Aweeky. Mr. Aweeky arranged my test drive, we negotiated the pricing for my trade in and within 3 hours I was driving home my new car. I highly recommend DCH Academy Honda and their friendly knowledgable staff, especially Mark Kamatoy and Paul Aweeky. Thanks for your help and I look forward to doing business with you again in the future.

I accompanied my friend who wants to buy this kind of van and to assist him to evaluate the condition mechanically and appearance of the van. The salesman who assisted us named Tim Crowley was very helpful and working at the best of his abilities. I stayed long time because my friend had to leave me to pick-up his children from school. Tim allowed me to check the van thoroughly and offered me some drinks while doing so and I don't even notice the time. He came to know that I came from North Carolina for that purpose of purchasing this van. I highly recommend Tim to anyone I know who are planning to buy a used car and he is a valuable asset of the company wherever he work.

Indeed, it is not easy for foreigners to purchase used cars in the U.S. I searched the Internet for many hours. Some dealers provided cheap cars on the Internet. However, their reputation was not good in Google. My friend recommended DCH Academy Honda and its reputation in Google is good. Fortunately, I met a very good dealer, Tim Crowley there. He has tried to explain everything to us in plain English and solve our problems for the registration. I'm sure that you will have good experience there, especially with Tim Crowley.

Came in the other day to finance my 2012 civic because the lease was up. My entire family has had hondas for most of our lives and we have been coming to Academy Honda for years now. Never had any complaints or problems in the past and yesterdays experience was no different. Essam Beshay was the sales man who helped me out. He helped me before in the past and is great. Beyond friendly and helpful. Was able to help me out and give me the best option available. Micahel Bendar also helped me out as well. He was incredible as he spent a while getting in touch with different banks and setting me up with the best possible price and rate. I def appreciate all of his hard work and what he was able to do for me. He didnt just give me the run around like most people either. He went over everything in full detail. Had a great experience and highly recommend academy honda to everyone. Already looking forward to my next Honda purchase! - Kevin

Tim Crowley turned a horrible situation into an AWESOME one!!! My car (which I purchased 3 years ago from Tim, another easy experience) was totaled in a car accident and I needed a new car FAST. I LOVED my Civic and made it clear to Tim I wanted the same make and model and he went above and beyond to find my perfect fit!!! Within a 48 hour period my fears were calmed and I was driving away in my dream car!! The entire team was very friendly and helpful and I would absolutely recommend them to anyone needing to buy a car and wanting a no nonsense straight forward experience! They will make sure you are happy!!

Bought a new 2015 Pilot (after visiting 2 American auto dealers that seemed to express zero interest in selling a car). By far the smoothest auto purchase I have ever made - no pressure or pushing to close sale.Finance team worked with me to try and beat pre-approved financing I obtained prior to arriving at dealership. Management team investigated different options for turning in Ford Explorer lease to save me additional headaches. Sales Rep (John Colatrella) was knowledgeable about vehicle, pleasant to deal with and down to earth.I have already recommended DCH Academy Honda to family in market for new vehicles.

Four years ago, we bought an odyssey here, Erich helped us a lot, he was very helpful and professional. This time,when we need a new car, we contacted him again. He still provided a high level of service,helped us to solve a lot of problems.The price of the new Civic was extreme good. To me, Erich's only a salesman, he just like a friend. When you think to buy or lease a new car, I highly recommend you to contact him.

I've purchased many cars and motorcycles from dealerships over the years, and from all of my previous experiences I'd rate this dealership as top notch. My salesman was Michael Roberts, and he handled everything professionally, all while maintaining a friendly and competent manner. I also met Nitin Bassi, and a few other members of the crew. Each employee that I met represented the dealership like a true professional. I will definitely be making this dealership, DCH Academy Honda my first choice for future car purchases.

I was not planning to buy a car(just browsing) but Enrique approached me at the entrance and was super friendly! He took time to explain the difference between models and treated me as a friend,not just a customer, even though me and my Mom informed him that we have no intention to buy the car! Then Michael Bendar came and took care of financial part of the process, he made sure I got the best deal with my rate, since I financed the car! Also he took care of insurance company! Got Honda Civic and I LOVE IT!!!!! P.S guys if you read this:Enrique and Mike, THANK YOU!!!

Andre was great to work with. No sales pressure, no useless small talk, just a friendly down to earth guy. My wife and I were only going to buy if we were offered a deal we couldn't refuse. Andre came back to us with numbers we expected, and when we asked him to match the numbers we couldn't turn down, he actually matched it! The whole process was as easy as car buying can be. It was still a long day, but that's expected for any new car purchase. Andre made the process as quick and easy as can be expected. Definitely recommend him to other buyers looking for an easy going, down to earth salesperson!

I had recently bought a new car at DCH this year and I went there with the intention of buying a Certified Car this time for my son who is in college. I was met by Tim Crowley who was very friendly. He did tell our son that he should be happy with what he wanted, and he gave him the opportunity to test drive 3 cars that he had in his mind. The entire process was stress free, 0 push from anyone involved and I could not have been any happier. DCH knows how to treat their customers and our special thanks to Tim Crowley. I whole heartedly encourage Central Jersey folks to visit DCH before they buy their car. I will surely go back again if there is ever a need to buy another car again

I must admit first of all that all fear I had about car buying was eliminated in first 5 mins of talk I had with Andre Yulfo. He made this whole affair, from beginning to end an absolutely pain free experience. He not only answers all my questions but help me guide in the right direction. He definitely went above and beyond his duty. I would strongly recommend anyone who is looking to buy cars to go to DCH Honda without any hesitation and see Andre. From my own experience I can tell you, you will not be disappointed..

My past experiences with auto sales reps have inevitably left me feeling guarded and uneasy; I would strap on a flak jacket and step into the showroom prepared for assault. Essam Sam Beshay has twice demonstrated that the car buying process can be a genuine and rewarding opportunity, first when I leased my 2012 Honda Pilot and again in 2014 at lease end. Sam quickly identified viable options designed to provide me with maximum benefit and investment protection. His expert advice and exceptional service acumen consistently served to streamline the negotiation process and minimize the agita. Sam Beshay represents the DCH Academy Gold Standardearnest caring and integrity, authentic service and support. And the coffee aint bad, either Many thanks to Sam Beshay, Paul Papis, and the DCH Academy staff for their kind consideration and professionalism.

very happy with the car I got. It was exactly what I wanted. This was the second dealership I visited that day and the first experience was not a good one. Upon entering the Honda in Old Bridge the vibe was more welcoming. John Cola's energy and down to earth approach from the moment he introduced himself made the entire experience pleasant. There was no pressure at all and he was extremely helpful. I am 100% satisfied with my Honda and will be recommending this dealership to everyone.

Received excellent customer service from Enrique when we came in to get a 2014 Honda Civic. He stayed past closing time to make sure we took care of the procedures we needed to, in order to hold the car on our name and pick it up the next day. He was very helpful, informative and professional.

Megan Byrnes' emails were detailed, straightforward and honest. Her out-the-door price breakdown made DCH Academy the obvious choice for me. Otis Vidale is a personable, professional, and equally honest sales rep who expertly handled all the details of finalizing the sale. Thanks Megan and Otis - your excellent work and superb support made the car buying process easy! I hope your bosses appreciate you as much as I do!Rich Immordino

When our beloved 1999 Civic died due to a service done years ago , we were despreate to replace it as quickly as possible. Due to another purchase we did not have the cash to buy it or finance it. Having never leased before we were a little apprehensive. We tried TrueCar and the Costco Auto Program, got the best price from other dealers by about 1pm from 4 other dealers. Then I called Paul Rittberg and explained our issue and the best price I got, Paul called me back in 20 min. with a price $500 below the lowest I had found and the lowest lease price. He handed me off to Ryan Hoey who completed the deal that night. They also paid a pretty good price on the 1999 Civic which was effectively scrapped. Picked it up Saturday afternoon, and the car is great and I will continue working with Paul and Ryan.

I had been looking to buy a used Honda over a couple of day period. I knew that I wanted a low mileage 2011 CRV for my daughter. I visited a few different dealers prior to going to DCH. When I entered DCH I was greeted by Tony Lopez who I explained what I was looking for and he made the process super easy and frankly pleasant. I had a great experience and would strongly recommend DCH Academy,

Visited the dealership today since my lease was ending December 31. Really like our Pilot and we decided that we would buy it. Sam Beshay reviewed our options and helped arrange great finance deal. This is the 3rd time I have worked with Sam. He isa great salesman who cares for his customers. I know I will back this summer when my daughter gets her new Civic. Great dealership with first rate professionals. Especially Sam.

I bought my Honda Pilot today, the deals they have are amazing, this is my 3rd personal car from this dealership. I recommended more 7 sales during the past 2 years.Service and Sales people are really friendly. We love Nitin Bassi for his pricing and no other dealer could come close to his price. I highly recommend them for their professional services.

I had the best experience this past Saturday. "True Service =Tim Crowley". He was pleasant, very knowledgeable and a true professional. He made my purchasing experience a pleasure. He displayed a sense of service with great attention to details every step of the way. I have worked with him before on different occasions and always come back to him. I went there because my previous car died on me and on very short notice Tim fit me in. I wasn't expecting to find a car that day but I did and I was over the moon. I am super happy with my purchase because I made the best decision based on my needs. Tim provided me with all information which made this possible.. Needless to say "Extrodinary Service" from Tim and all the members of Academy Honda that were involved to make this happen.....I whole heartedly recommend Tim and will come back.....

The overall closing process, including dealing with the finance manager Terry Bhatia was quick and smooth.

I found the used 2013 Mazda 5 online at DCH Academy Honda. The price was okay. I contacted them via email and got a quick response from Dave Mazurek. We made an appointment, test drove it, and bought it (for a little less than the internet price). Dave was a friendly, no-pressure, helpful salesperson. He got us through the paperwork as quickly as possible. We are really happy with the car. This is the second used car we bought at DCH, and we would definitely buy there again.

I knew the kind of car I wanted Ivone made this process way easier for me, you can actually notice that Ivone wants to take good care of costumes, is not just about bussiness and making money, very nice, polite, profesional. A lot of dealers just want money and the most out of people, not here, not with Ivone. I highly recommend DCH Academy Honda and sales consultant Ivone Lopez

I was in the market for a used Honda CRV. I already knew what I was looking for, but wasn't sure where to go. I found DCH Academy Honda's selection reasonable for the price point I had been searching. They had a decent selection of cars on the lot, not too many that can be overwhelming. My sales person, David Harris was accommodating and was not a high pressure sales "kind of guy". He was extremely knowledgeable and personable. He made my car buying experience a pleasant one....and I can say that it is NOT one of my favorite things to do. It usually ends up with me leaving with a headache. He was thorough, professional and yet, I felt at ease with him. If I had to purchase another vehicle, it's very likely I would return to DCH Academy Honda.

After several months of research I determined my best out-the-door price. I called up DCH and Lisa G. (who for some reason is not on the checklist below--put her on the list!) promptly emailed me their best offer. We went back and forth a little and they came in only $50 over my target price. Then I just showed up, without calling, and filled out the paperwork! No unwanted discussions about price at the dealership. Andre helped me do the paperwork and made zero attempt at up-selling me anything. In fact, whenever he showed me something to sign and I was about to express a concern, he beat me to it and addressed the issue to my satisfaction every single time. Andre was patient, kept the mood light, and had no negative or high-pressure attitude. They had to deliver the car from a nearby warehouse, but didn't require any deposit or commitment from me first. There was none of that 'let me talk to my manger' BS where they try to work you over with pressure and a war of attrition. When I was passed over to Akram in finance, I expected the up-selling to begin. He merely asked if I was interested in an extended warranty--expecting the 'no' since I made it clear I was going to spend only what we negotiated by email and not a penny more--he casually asked if I wanted to discuss why and when I declined he professionally moved on without any attitude or pressure at all. Finally, before sending me off with my new 2015 Honda Fit, Andre explained all of its features (there are many). Bottom line: I could not be happier with the experience, and I would recommend anybody to see Andre and the whole staff at DCH.

Back in January 2012 , I leased a Honda CRV with RES from this dealership and the lease was going to be up soon, only one payment left so I went back in August to find out what my options where. I am happy to say my sales person told me to wait until the 2015 were coming in, so I waited and then was told, yes they are here but wait until we can work with you to get the best deal. Have you ever heard of a salesperson and dealership looking out for the customer ? Well, Joe Guzzo and the management team at DCH Academy Honda do that.I just leased a new 2015 CRV- EXL and Joe Guzzo is by far the most honest trustworthy salesperson I have ever dealt with. As far as management, Bill Lister is also fair, honest and the team tries to make you happy. This is the 2nd CRV I have leased with the current team , and they are the best. If you are looking for a HONDA., don't waste your time and energy with people who overpromise and don't deliver. Go and speak with Joe Guzzo . He will always go the extra mile for you .Jack FA fan of DCH Academy Honda

Otis was easy going, up front, and gave me a great price. He was a pleasure to work with. I was in contact with a few other dealerships (not only Honda), and many were either nonresponsive, too aggressive, or were hiding some pertinent info about their quotes. Otis was great.

John Ngyun, Otis Vidale, & Finance Mike are an amazing team. I was introduced to DCH Accademy Honda through the internet sales agent; Lisa G. and her approximately $1,200.00 off MSRP quote. I drove out that same morning, where the art of the deal commenced. I have to be full disclosure here; I worked over Otis pretty bad for a better deal, and he made it happen - Kudos to you Otis! John Ngyun, Sales Manager, stepped in to finalyze the deal, and then i met Finance Mike... This guy was awesome! He reworked the financing into a better rate and lower monthly payment - i am absolutly giddy beyond belief at his wizzardry.So, yeah, thr team at DCH Accademy Honda really made me a happy camper ??

Enrique Castaneta was excellent to work with. Very professional. He was willing to work with us and it didn't even take long to get the exact car we wanted for a great price. No pressure and no nonsense. He was also very accommodating - we needed to pick up the new car on his day off and he agreed to meet us. I highly recommend anyone to see him and I will be referring friends and family to see him as well. We plan on returning in the future for another car. This is a great dealership and Mo was great to work with as well.

I never owned a Honda before, so I was really hesitant with making the switch but DCH Academy Honda made it a smooth and pleasant transition. Jesus Vergel helped me out with certain questions I had and referred me to Robert Levine(sales) who did an amazing job explaining all the details about my purchase as well as showing me step by step on how to work with the cars options and settings. I was pleased and felt comfortable when I drove out of the lot with my NEW 2015 Honda Accord. The experience was so great that even my parents were amazed by the attention and customer service that was provided, that they even mentioned coming back for themselves. With that said, I was completely pleased and amazed by the treatment and that's no BS. Thank you, DCH Academy Honda!!

I recently leased a new car at DCH Honda and it was the best experience of all the past purchases I have made. Enrique Castaneta was the most knowledge, patient, and genuine salesman I have ever dealt with. After I finished lease car from him, I purchased another one for my wife next day, mainly because of great price and service he provided. If you need to buy a Honda, go toDCH Academy Honda and ask for Enrique, you will experience the same VIP service that I received, Now, I have to go and drive the new car that we just bought.

This was a very comfortable no pressure experience. Joe is very knowlegeable in his field. He explained all the features of both vehicles completely so I was able to make an informed decision.

I have decided to lease a car this time around instead of buying. I went to a few other dealers and wasn't really happy with the service. Some of these so called "salesman" made me feel like they couldn't be bothered. Then I walked into DCH and met Joe Guzzo. I am interested in leasing a Honda Pilot 2015 EXL. Being that I am new to leasing, Mr. Guzzo explained everything about leasing to me clearly. He made me feel wanted as a customer and quoted me a great price. Needless to say, I will be leasing my car from DCH. Thank you Joe!

Although it took me many months to finally look for a car, all my uncertainty and fears were put to rest at Academy Honda. Joseph Guzzo, the salesperson who met with me, was courteous and friendly and very knowledgeable, and he made the whole experience a pleasure. I was able to drive home with a lovely Honda Civic that I am very very pleased with. And the trade-in for my old Saturn was more than I expected...I highly recommend this dealership and Mr. Guzzo - if you are look for a car!!!

Knowing I was traveling he was very understanding and worked around my schedule. In my opinion he did everything right for a great car buying experience. Salesman Khalil Quraihi, Sales Manager John Nguyen and Finance Manager Mo Ares made the complete sales process a pleasure while doing their job very professional. This team made the sometimes bothersome car buying experience a great experience to say the least! Highly recommend this group of knowledgeable committed and professional team!Sincerely,D Benet

I saw a car online I was interested in so I stopped in. Having corresponded through IM with Tony, I met him face to face as my salesman. He was very nice and didnt pressure or mention price whatsoever. Never mentioned how would this be paid or anything, so that was quite refreshing. After making the purchase he assured me I would get a full tank of gas and I noticed the service manual was missing. I left him a voicemail and he emailed me back same day telling me he had one for me. Super nice guy, highly recommend!

I have had the pleasure of doing business with DCH Academy Honda for the past four years. My wife and I have acquired our last four vehicles from this great business. Our experiences have always been positive with every member of the staff chipping in and helping whatever situation arose. Our car sales consultant has and always will be Khalil Quraishi. He is an amazing man; he never forgets a name, will always go to bat for his customers and is never satisfied until the customer is happy. Khalil has become a friend because of the kind of man he is. If you stop in DCH, ask for Khalil and you'll leave satisfied...guaranteed!

We saw a Pre-owned Honda Crosstour at DCH Academy Honda on line and called to inquire. We spoke to Tony Lopez who was knowledgable and helpful about the car and its features. He encouraged us to come see the car that day. We mentioned we had a 4 year old, so it might be challenging, but Tony said to make it easy the car would be ready and avialable when we arrived -- which it was, right out front. We took a test drive as he explained the features, and we liked the car. We went inside to inquire further and he gave our son a hot chocolate (which he loved!) We negotiated fairly over the price and met Jesus, the manager, who helped us finalize the deal. We then met Marcus who explained that we could obtain a great extended warranty, which was something that interested us. We left a deposit and came back over the weekend to finalize -- and left with the car! Tony and Marcus answered all our questinos, responded to all our calls and were very helpful. No pressure, just friendly, courteous service! Overall, it was a very good experience at DCH Academy Honda - we would recommend!

I recently leased my fifth Honda from DCH academy Honda using my favorite salesperson Khalil Quraishi. I would highly recommend DCH academy Honda for their cleanliness, friendliness, helpfulness, and always accommodating attitude. From the salespeople to the finance advisors smiling, friendly, helpful and interactive at all times. They always work with us to get the best price possible which is always important for my family. This past week we went in to upgrade to an SUV because we are having our first child in January. Winter being a concern we upgraded from a civic to a CRV. Khalil was informative, helpful and funny from start to finish. He didnt keep us in the dealership for an exaggerated amount of time either which is always a plus! It was good conversation and good company while we were waiting for our new vehicle. After using Khalil and DCH academy Honda over the years they have become a part of our family. I feel comfortable and reassured knowing that I am putting my child in a car that even my dealer would use for his family. My husband and I are extremely grateful for everyones help throughout our process especially Khalils.

This past Saturday, I was blessed by being afforded the best car buying experience to date. Upon entering DCH Honda/Pre-Owned division in Old Bridge, NJ, I was greeted by one of their sales associates, Mr. David Dave Mazurek. I did not feel even the slightest hint of pressure and his genuine demeanor made me feel as if I have known him for 25+ years. Dave took me on a tour through the lot, guiding me toward vehicles he thought would interest me based on our conversation. All of the vehicles I looked at were in premium condition with low mileage, to the point that I felt like I was about to purchase a new vehicle. We test drove a couple of vehicles and were back at the dealership. On our drives, David spoke with me regarding the models we were riding in and compared and contrasted them with other models I inquired about. He is extremely knowledgeable and narrowing down my choices became much easier as a result. Once back at the dealership, Dave spoke with me about my then current vehicle and had it appraised for its trade-in value. DCH offered me top dollar for my vehicle and applied the difference as my down payment on what I had chosen to be my new vehicle. He worked closely with his sales manager, Mr. Peter Pete Modzelewski, and with one of the associates from the finance team, Mr. Marcus Rivera, to present me with all of my options and assist me with making the best choices based on my preferences and situation. Making a purchase and transitioning from one vehicle to another has never been so seamless and enjoyable. After shopping and comparing options from a few different financial institutions, they were able to present me with an extremely low interest rate. I was truly impressed how low it was, especially for a used vehicle. My new car payment is significantly lower every month and it is for a term that I am more than comfortable with. I also have the ultimate peace of mind knowing that this car was coming certified from Honda and that I was able to add a wheel and tire protection package and extend bumper-to-bumper coverage for up to 100k miles. Speaking as someone that buys new cars often, I was more than pleased making this pre-owned purchase and felt absolutely no need to haggle over price, as I felt more than content with their price and what they offered me for my trade-in. Signing my name never felt so good. From start to finish, I felt like I was being provided five star treatment. DCH has earned itself a repeat customer and positive word of mouth. Thanks again!!Peter Salek-Nejad2013 Honda Accord Coupe EX from DCH Honda in Old Bridge, NJ

We have owned several Hondas previously (3 Accords and an Odyssey) and have found them to be reliable and well designed vehicles so when we were recently looking at new cars we included Honda in our short list of cars to test drive. We visited a number of car dealerships before deciding that a Honda Pilot would be the best vehicle for our needs. We came to DCH with an internet price offer which was generated through USAA and which included a breakdown of fees and taxes and an "Off the Lot" total price. At DCH it was a pleasure dealing with the professional sales staff, our salesperson Joe Guzzo was exceptional. Our time was valued and we were dealt with openly and honestly during discussions around add on options (which were presented as such, no pressure) and valuation of our trade in. Overall we were very happy with our experience at DCH and would definitely recommend that if you are in the market for a new Honda you take a trip to Old Bridge.

For our most recent car purchase, we shopped online, and found a 2014 Accord at DCH Academy Honda. We were put in contact with Dave Mazurek, our salesperson throughout the transaction. From the start, we appreciated that Dave was flexible, understanding of our difficult schedule and no-pressure. Dave and the DCH team went out of their way to remove unwanted tint from the windows of the car and to accommodate our wishes. We really appreciated their honesty and effort. It was a rather easy, low-hassle and low-stress process, and we would buy another car at DCH Academy Honda.

I had visited a few dealerships before DCH HONDA, and the sales person's who helped me were nothing compared to T, Lopez. T, Lopez is by far one of the most professional, friendly, and most serious person about his job. When i arrived he had the car ready for me to test drive it, and had all the paperwork ready. Everything went so smooth that i ended up buying the car the same day. I def recommend him!!

On October 20, 2014, I purchased a new 2015 Honda Pilot Touring from DCH Academy Honda. On October 8, 2014, I received a Price Promise certificate from edmunds.com with a very attractive price on the exact model I was looking for. I was initially contacted by Lisa Golembiewski via e-mail to confirm my interest in the car. I told her I was very interested and planned on stopping by the dealership that night. When I arrived at the dealership, Lisa had made an appointment for me to meet with a salesperson. I was then introduced to Joe Guzzo. I explained to Joe that I was purchasing a company car and presented the Price Promise certificate. I also let him know that I wouldn't be able to complete the purchase for a couple of weeks due to company policy, but I was very interested in this one particular car (black on black Touring model). Joe was very accommodating. He said it wouldn't be a problem to hold the car if I left a small deposit and honored the Price Promise certificate to the penny. Over the 2 weeks between my initial visit and the date of purchase, I was contacted by Lisa and Joe several times to confirm the details of my purchase. Joe also had to contact the person in my office who handles auto purchases. Everything went very smoothly and I was able to pick up the car on the exact date and time I wanted. When picking up the car, I first met with Joe to go over the final purchase details. I was then introduced to Akram Ali in the finance department to complete the sale. I had my 7 year-old daughter with me and both Joe and Akram treated her as if she was part of the purchase process (she wasn't). They also made sure to keep my time at the dealership at a minimum as my daughter had just come from soccer practice and needed to get home to do her homework and get to bed for school the next day. The whole process took less than an hour. After signing some paperwork with Akram and going through the car with Joe, I drove off the lot with my brand new Honda Pilot. The entire process, from initial e-mail contact to final purchase, was handled with the utmost professionalism. I highly recommend DCH Academy Honda (this is the third car I have purchased from them).

The car leasing experience was one of the best we had ever had. Essam Beshay was extremely personable and a caring person throughout the entire process. He was very upfront and did an amazing job of securing us a great deal. Throughout the entire process he was respectful and an absolute pleasure to work with. I would recommend this dealership to anyone who is looking for a fair an honest price coupled with a highly skilled staff.

I purchased a 2011 Honda Accord...my first Honda..and the experience was awesome. I expected the dealership to be like the others I have been to..I was wrong. My salesman was Tim Crowley. His honesty and personality made me very comfortable in my decision to buy. I had visited the dealership on Saturday, met with Dave Mazurek, and he followed up with me on Monday. The only dealership that did that. I returned on Tuesday for a test drive and bought the car. No Hassles, no gimmicks. THANK YOU ! Want to buy a car? Go to DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge!

David Mazurek was an excellent sales person throughout this experience. He gave me the facts and was not pushy at all. He was patient with me as it took me 3 days and 5 different dealerships to make my decision. Academy was my first stop and ended up being my last thanks to David's salesmanship and honesty. I left David and Academy feeling very secure about my purchase.

Bought my new Accord Hybrid touring here last week and had a great experience. I took my truecar certificate in for a 2014 model but they didn't have it in stock, my salesperson Paul A. was able to locate a 2015 model and the price was only about $100 more.They didn't have the color I wanted (Blue) and was not able to get an ETA of one. Mainly because it was a hard color to find so I don't blame them. I called other dealers in the area to verify. Paul was very professional and knowledgeable. He had the answer to most of my questions regarding the car. He even took delivery of the vehicle and inspected the vehicle from their sister shop in NNJ, and drove it down to Old Bridge himself. He actually cares about the product he sells.I would not hesitate to recommend Paul A and DCH Academy Honda to my friends and family.

After a not so great experience at another Honda dealer, I found everything I could want and more at DCH in Old Bridge. I found the car I was looking at online and the internet sales guy Mark Kamatoy, immediately gave me the best price on the car with no haggling necessary! I was then put in touch with salesman, Sam Beshay, and all went smoothly and quickly! As soon as the car arrived on the lot, Sam emailed me (the easier way for me to communicate without playing phone tag). He was in touch all the time with any information he would need and my financing (with the help of friendly and helpful Akram Ali) and purchase went quickly, smoothly, and easily! I would totally recommend them for any car purchase!

I went into DCH Honda to turn in my previous lease and lease a new vehicle. I was a bit on edge, because I knew I went over milage, and I didn't know what to expect being it was my first lease. Akram Ali greeted me at the door and I explained the situation to him and he immediately put me at ease, saying not to worry and they will help me find something that I was comfortable with. I then sat with Essam Beshay to choose the vehicle that I wanted, and workout numbers. He was extremely patient and kind, and I felt like I honestly had nothing to worry about! And now I'm driving my new lease that I love!

We just leased a new 2015 Honda Fit at DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge from Enrique Castaneta and what an INCREDIBLE experience it was! We had actually gone to another Honda dealership first and not recieved the same great service and prices as at DCH Academy Honda. Not only did Enrique listen to our needs and work with us to broker the best deal, every other employee we dealt with at this dealership treated us with the utmost respect and care. This was my first new car buying experience and I could not be more thrilled.

A friend recommended Academy Honda & Robert Levine for the purchase of my CRV. Robert answered all of my questions, was very knowledgeable and extremely patient. Days after I purchased my CRV Robert called me numerous times to see if I had any questions and see how I was doing. Being in the sales business myself I really appreciated his follow up! I am enjoying my CRV and would recommend Robert to anyone purchasing a Honda.

I never thought I would be writing about a positive car buying experience but when we purchased our daughter's car back in 2012 at DCH we had a very positive buying experience and decided to come back to purchase our new Honda Accord. We worked with Mark Kamatoy in 2012 and appreciated his professionalism and the way that the entire deal was handled from start to finish. This second time we requested to work with Mark Kamatoy again who got us a great price on our new Accord. Our sales person Enrique Castaneta was very knowledgeable and pleasant to work with and in addition our finance person at DCH Paul Papis was also great to work with and answered all our questions. We have recommended this dealership to some of our friends and they also purchased their cars from DCH and had a positive experience. I highly recommend DCH Academy Honda to anyone considering the purchase of a Honda vehicle.

My wife and I have purchased several vehicles in the past 10 years from DCH Academy Honda. We love the dependability of a Honda and enjoy many of the new features. We have had the absolute pleasure of dealing with Robert Levine for the last 5 cars purchased. Robert is not typical for most Sales people that I have dealt with in the past. He is highly knowledgable, trustworthy, laid back and always helps us get the deal that we want. This time, we leased a 2014 CR-V. Robert worked with the DCH Staff to get us the perfect vehicle. We love this dealership, both for sales AND service. They never recommend services you do not need. If you need a car, we would highly recommend Robert Levine and the DCH Honda folks.

Great service here at DCH! TIM was a great sales rep. From the moment I contacted Honda over the phone Tim was on point giving me information on a car I was looking at and if he wasn't sure of something he definitely did his research and got back to me quick. When I finally decided to get a CR-Z and went to DCH he made sure I felt welcomed. Exceptional representatives here. I felt like family not just another customer. Will definitely highly recommend this dealer.

Excellent service before I even set foot in the door. My mom and I were looking at a few different cars outside at the dealership because earlier that day I was told that the Jeep I had for the past few years needed a 1700 dollar repair and that it wasn't worth fixing. I was slightly panicked because I was about to start grad school just a few days later and I couldn't be left without a car. Not planning on making any sudden decisions, we decided to just browse. I was thinking about leasing a Civic because they are practical and very good on gas. We saw a couple we liked so we decided to just go in to ask a few questions. Before we even reached the door, we were approached by Todd Ruggiero. He quickly answered every question we had and because we were interested in leasing a Civic, he took us inside and went over pricing and the different options that we had. He let me test drive a Civic and I immediately knew that that was the car that I wanted. Because it was only me and my mom, we were a little skeptical about going through with it because usually my dad is present for all major purchases. We never felt pressured into making any decisions and never felt like we were being taken advantage of in any way, which made us feel more at ease about making the decision. Todd genuinely cared about us and took the time to explain anything and everything we wanted to know. He took his time with us and made us feel right at home throughout the whole process. He had a great, friendly and funny personality which made the whole process seem to go by so quickly and effortlessly. I would definitely recommend this dealership and this particular car dealer to anyone in the market for a new car. I had a great experience there and I absolutely love my new Honda Civic!

On the next day I had great help from Veronica Galluccio. Price was exactly same as quoted online. Veronica was very honest and professional, she guided me through every steps of the way.I would be highly recommend coming here if you looking to buy a certified car.

We were not able to get the deal that we were looking for. First they gave an outrageously high quote. When we showed them the their online ad printout. They tried to play it around and get more money than what they advertised in the ad. That's how dealers make bonus, sales. Since they didn't honor the advertised price, we walked out. Disappointed!!!! We have been loyal Honda customers all these years. It's not going to happen anymore.

DCH Honda truly stands for its name (Delivering Customer Happiness). I called Mark before going to DCH Honda, (Old bridge) for the advertised quote, the advertised cost for Odessey was exactly what quote I was given over email. When I arrived at DCH, Mark was on leave but he did tell me that anyone at dealership would honor quoted price. Paul Marques helped me when I arrived at DCH, helped closed the deal. He honored the quote I was given in email, worked out the best deal for me. The best thing I liked about Paul Marques and DCH is that they stand for HONESTY and INTEGRITY. In my experience, there are very few dealers in NJ, NY area who can match Honesty and Integrity delivered at DCH. Paul was very honest, transparent, no dirty sales tactics, no pressure sales, I highly recommend him, he is truly accomplished sales person who wins customer. Mo, the Finance Manger is very talented and Hard working. He shared additional products with me but did not pressure to up sale any package. Very Honest man. Nitin is very talented manager out there, truly think about customer, manages a highly effective and efficient sales team there. I was tired to deal with other dishonest, tactic player dealers, I was glad to find DCH. I have only dealt with honest people in my life who honor integrity, I will do business with DCH again and again, they impressed me, stand out with 5 star plus rating. I highly recommend for friends and family.

He made the experience a pleasant one and kept us informed each step of the way, from the moment we test drove the car to the moment we drove it home. I would highly recommend coming here if you are looking to buy or lease a car. I would also like to say the manager John Nyguen was very welcoming when we first came in and made sure we got a great deal. I would like to thank DCH Academy in Old Bridge for a terrific experience and look forward to working with them again when my lease is up.

As most know, purchasing a vehicle can be a long and tedious endeavor. However, my recent experience working with DCH Academy Honda of Old Bridge was a smooth and overall positive experience. Robert Levine was very much accommodating and helpful with answering the many questions I had about turning in my lease. Having purchased a vehicle from Robert in 2011, I felt confident that he would continue to offer me quality service. He was extremely knowledgeable in all aspects of Honda's vehicles and made the transition easy. I am very much happy with my new lease and would recommend Robert to anyone looking to purchase a Honda.

This was not my first experience with this dealership and won't be my last. The customer service was excellent - professional, but friendly., It was my first experience with leasing and it was explained to me to my satisfaction.by Joe Guzzo who made sure the procedure was done very smoothly and with little effort on my part. He was very knowledgeable and made sure I was comfortable with everything. Joe Scardigno and Paul Papis also were very friendly and helpful.A great staff.

I've been a customer of Honda, and this dealership, for several years, and plan to come back. Sam Beshay has worked with me on my past two leases, and he's been great - personable, helpful and considerate. The lease return and new lease was handled with a minimum of effort, plus I got a great deal!

Purchased used honda, we visited the dealership with a specific car in mind, sales person did not go on the test drive with us, had to wait about an hour to even speak to a sales person, in total it took us 4 1/2 hours to purchase the car after we made the decision to buy. Excuse was they were busy. It seemed to take a long time for everyone else as the same customers were in the dealership throughout the duration of our visit. There were sales people sitting around doing nothing. I like my car, price was fair but the customer service and the length of time to make the purchase was absolutely terrible. I have bought Hondas in the past and will likely buy them in the future but NEVER AGAIN from this dealer. Dealership was not very clean either, maybe they need to invest in improving their used dealership, their new dealership at the same site was by appearance more accommodating and professional.

I went to look at an Accord in hopes of it being in my price range. I originally came in for the LX, but was able to get the EX due to an amazing deal. My salesman, Paul was so helpful throughout the entire process. Eventually, we had to talk to Joe to work out the deal and he gave us a deal we couldn't refuse. The one thing that stuck out in my mind about DCH was they did not pressure me at all and they were all so friendly and a pleasure to work with. I am in love with my new Accord and would definitely recommend DCH ACADEMY HONDA!

This was my first Honda and the first time I ever did business with DCH Honda. My salesman, Joe Guzzo was the best and made the leasing transaction so easy!! He truly was a pleasure to deal with. The whole dealership was friendly and courteous. There was no pressure to buy or lease, they were confident in their pricing and the first price they quoted me was their best offer. This dealership did not "play games." I appreciated their upfront honesty from the start! There was no haggling about the price. I highly recommend this dealership and I plan on doing business with them again! Thanks again especially to JOE!!!

Have traded in my2008 BMW 528XI for a crosstour at DCH academy Honda of rt 9 NJ , this was a very pleasant experience , my sales consultant Sam Beshay took the time guided me through the process without a slight feeling of pressure what so ever , Sam Beshay is a professional sales who took good care of selling proces A-Z , that was definitely a pleasant time. Honda did a fine job coming up with the crosstour v6 EXL, it rides and preform much better than my 2008 BMW 528XI

It was a pleasurable experience, from beginning to end. The process was courteous, fair, friendly and fast. Everything was explained without added "pressures". It is a good feeling knowing that my one-stop Honda shopping is with DCH Academy Honda, in Old Bridge, NJ.

My parents and I wanted to purchase a used Honda CRV. When working with DCH Honda, we experienced a variety of problems. I am very disappointed in the service and management and would not recommend DCH Honda to anyone. - David Harris was our sales rep. As we tried to negotiate, he would not budge at all but several times got angry with us for trying to reduce the price. He would reduce the price by removing options but not by actually changing the asking price. When we tried to negotiate, which is very common in car sales, a simple "no" would have sufficed, but instead, he wouldn't speak with us anymore, and even once stormed out of the building. I already know that he wasn't happy with the job because he said he wanted to leave to become a police officer and that this was just a temp position. I knew much more about this car than he did and I wish I was assigned a new sales rep. - We were told the car would be cleaned. It wasn't when we inspected the car. After asking, they promised they would clean it. The next morning, we arrived to finalize the sale of the car but it was still not cleaned. Very frustrated to hear promises and no actions. - We purchased the car and just before driving away, we noticed a large crack along the bottom of the front windshield. We had made special transportation arrangements to pick up the car but had to return the next day. They fixed windshield but they weren't happy with how much money they lost with this sale. They offered no friendliness or compensation for the inconvenience they caused us. - The invoice document explicitly stated that the Bluetooth feature was included in this car. This was not true and a typo, yet we had already purchased the car and they wouldn't do anything else to compensate us. - Later, we noticed that the oil levels were dangerously low. We asked about this, brought the car into service, and they filled the oil without us knowing and claimed it was fine all along. Transmission fluid levels were also very low upon receipt of the car. - Mike Serra worked with us when David Harris would not speak with us. Mike was much easier to work with, but unfortunately, he did not offer any additional compensation for the variety of problems. I spoke with his manager as well, but this person would not even return my calls. I have purchased cars from other dealers before. This was unlike my previous experiences and I would definitely not return. "Delivering Customer Happiness" is definitely not what this dealership showed or cares about. We needed to buy a car immediately, but if we had more time, we would have left and searched elsewhere.

We walked around the showroom for 5 minutes before we were even acknowledged by a sales associate. When one finally approached us, she was unfriendly, and it seems as if we were imposing on her. While we were sitting at her desk, she left us to pay for her lunch. She never gave us any specifics about the car, and just told us where to turn on the test drive. They were unbending in their price, and weren't very helpful at all.

This is the third used car we had to buy this year and it was the best overall experience. An internet search showed that Academy had the best selection and some of the lowest priced used Hondas in the area. Our sales rep, Tim Crowley, was very friendly, helpful, and professional. We weren't pressured or forced to pay for extras that many other dealers push or add to the cost. I would certainly recommend this dealership.

Joe was extremely informative and offered a competitive price. He made the entire experience comfortable and relaxed. I will certainly be recommended DHA Academy to my friends and will be directing them to work with Joe Guzzo.

Despite making an appointment to view the car upon arrival the car was dirty and appeared to be already owned by someone! It had trash, money, empty red-bull bottles, sunglasses, coats, money and was FILTHY! I came with my own financing to speed things up, HOWEVER, I waited OVER 2 HOURS for 10 minutes worth of paperwork, because an "emergency mandatory meeting" was called. Apparently the only people who could close the sale were in this meeting! While waiting with my 2 small children no one offered us ANYTHING! Not until I went into Mike's office did i notice a flat screen tv in a lounge that could have been entertaining my restless children, but again no one seemed to care about us waiting. Fast forward 20 days, my tags are expiring and I contacted the dealership and I'm basically told "OH WELL", we're waiting on Delaware. This after I've been calling all week. Asked for corporate number and address, and Michael Clites "didn't know it"! I had this problem before buying a car out-of-state, and simply requested for a letter to mailed overnight stating the facts, in case I get pulled over, and apparently thar was OUT OF THE QUESTION! After a bunch of back and forth Michael concluded, "he'll see what he can do". Needless to say, google knew corporate number and address, and I would NEVER BUY from this place again, and DEFINITELY would NOT RECOMMEND!

Typically, you don't expect to have such nice things to say about acar salesman, but Mike was excellent. He was personable, and really worked with us to make sure we left with exactly what we were looking for, and with smiles on our faces.

My car was in an accident and we wanted to replace it with a newer Pilot. I made sure to check with Otis that before I left, I would have something in writing for my insurance company showing the price I would pay so I could use it to help collect diminished value from the other insurance company. Otis said no problem and came through with exactly what I needed. He introduced me to the used car manager who did the appraisal, came up with a good price, and let me know exactly what I needed. Although in the end I kept the car, I would have bought from Otis and he's the first person I'm going to see next year when I trade in my other car. I highly recommend you ask for him if you visit DCH.Also, as a warning, stay away from Freehold Honda. As I was leaving I remarked that he was so much easier to deal with then they were. 1 other perspective buyer with another salesperson behind me said they knew to avoid it all together and another 1 said they had the same crummy experience I had there. Save yourself the stress and avoid

This was my second new vehicle from DCH Honda. Otis and John were terrific. They were attentive. Answered all of my questions upon delivery of the vehicle. I previously had a lease of a 2011 Honda CRV. This most recent vehicle was a purchase as I expect the mileage to be much more given I expected travel. Otis and John were/are very professional. Accomodating. Answered all of my questions. Very receptive to my needs. A wonderful display of professionalism and customer service. I certainly would recommend this dealership again. And I look forward to my next new vehicle with this dealership.Thanks.........Vincent Vozzo

Stopped into DCH as a last ditch effort to purchase our new Pilot at a price that fit our families budget. We met with Sales Consultant Michael Roberts and we couldn't have been happier about it. He was not only kind, professional and enjoyable but he immediately relieved our frustrations with the entire car buying process and worked with his management team to get us where we wanted to be. It was a great experience and I would recommend them to anyone.

This is my second purchase from Academy Honda and both times I received top-notch pricing and a super friendly,pain free purchase. Mr. Beshay helped me both times. As always, I will be back again when I am ready for another new car !Don't waste your time at any other dealership. Highly recommended!

Honda academy thank you for all the years I have dealt with you in making my experience for me and my family an enjoyable and non stressful . Tim Crowley thank you for today helping us once again to drive away with a car that you worked hard on to make it be in our means. We have dealt with Tim over 10 years ago and have referred friends and family to him because of his outstanding help and care. We have been to other dealerships in past years and none of them come close in the care and friendliness as Oldbridge Honda Academy. If there was a 10 star rating that is what I would give,no pressure,friendly , good people I feel like am dealing with family when am there. Once again thank you !

I visited DCH Academy Honda on Friday, 18th July, 2014 after reading good reviews about them and got an internet price offer from one of the internet sales person Jennifer Calderon for 2014 Honda CRV AWD EXL. My experience with her over the phone was really good thus I decided to visit the dealer. I mainly dealt with sales person Michael Roberts, who was good in pricing negotiation and overall experience was good with him till we reach to the point where he suppose to let me know financing interest rate. And actual problems starts there and thus this rating. Having mentioned during negotiation of my T1 credit rating, I asked for 1.9 rate of interest for 60 months which Academy Honda promised they will try. Post my credit check I fall in T1 credit rating category though Michael or Academy's finance team unable to commit anything on that day. Asked me to put USD 500 as refundable deposit and said they will come back to me on Saturday about financing approval and rate of interest which they never did. On Monday. 21st July, 2014 I received a call from Michael Roberts saying my auto load has been approved and I can visit the dealer and take the vehicle. When I asked what's the rate of interest he starts giving me excuses like he is not aware and finance manager is not in till 6:00 pm so I cannot tell you unless you come down to the dealership. When I refused and insisted I got another call from one of Finance Director, she was not worth of talking at all. She was giving me excuses like its Stores policy to not give details over the phone and all. So finally I end up visiting dealership second time on Monday, 21st July, 2014 and surprise to know the rate of interest these people were asking. After talking to couple of financing manager I come to an conclusion to cancel the deal and asked for the USD 500 which I gave as refundable deposit which till date I haven't received after daily follow up with Michael Roberts and Nitin Bassi (Admin or Sales Manager)

I contacted several Honda dealerships in the area to try to get a good price. Before I talked to Mark at DCH, every other dealership either refused to give me complete pricing information over the phone, or they gave me information that was patently false. One place gave me the price and said "there may be additional fees" but refused to discuss what those fees might be. Another place gave me a price over the phone, promised there would be no extra charges, and then when I went in to buy the car they said the price I was given included a $500 discount for recent college graduates and a $500 discount for military service members, which I don't qualify for.DCH, on the other hand, gave me a written "out the door" price, which was very competitive and included all fees down to the tire tax. Also, they seem to be one of the few dealers that don't add on a lot of extras and then force you to pay for them. They don't add on anything without you asking. The next time I have to buy a car, I'm going to go straight to them first.

I have used their service department many time to keep my 1996 Honda Accord running and have always had a good experience with them. The place is clean and everyone is very professional. I finally traded in my beloved Accord for a 2012 Honda Civic and Tim Crowley with his mild manner approach and easy going disposition was there to help me through the buying process. He took his time to answer any questions I had. There was no pressure selling or haggling back and forth. Tim's a very straight forward, pleasant and respectful "old school" gentleman without an attitude, a real pleasure to deal with. Once again I am a satisfied customer. I highly recommend this dealership for your first/next Honda and Tim Crowley as you sales consultant. Thanks again Tim!

My brother bought a Honda from here, so I decided to give this place a shot. Ivon Lopez was our sales consultant, and she was GREAT. She was instrumental to making my experience as smooth as possible. I was a little apprehensive going into this, because it was my first car purchase, and I know that some dealerships have bad reputations, but Ivon was there every step of the way to answer any questions I had, and proved to me that DCH Academy Honda is NOT like the other dealerships.Being a first time auto buyer, it was a learning experience for me, and I did make some mistakes by not being completely prepared with the documents I needed and stuff, but Ivon was patient, made time for me, and really came through for me. The finance manager, Dmitry was also very patient, and deserves a mention for being a stand up guy. Very, very satisfied with DCH Academy Honda, Ivon and Dmitry. Thanks guys!

From the moment, I spoke to them over the phone, the very first time I went to the dealership I experienced nothing but people who were ALWAYS SMILING , friendly and warm from the heart who welcomed me and were very upfront and honest about everything they said unlike EVERY OTHER DEALERSHIP, I have been to. These people are absolutely amazing !! They really love their job and they know it better than anyone else !! All the other dealerships just try to get you to commit to a deal without offering good customer service. Every other place I visited was not even remotely honest or respectful like the good folks at DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge. Miranda the sales specialist took my appointment over the phone eagerly and was waiting for me at the reception desk even before I arrived. She then referred me to Andre Yulfo .... To describe Andre in just 2 words: Salesperson Extraordinaire !!! He didn't even act like a Salesperson. He took the time to describe all my purchase options HONESTLY without any kind of pressure whatsoever. I knew beforehand exactly what color and model of car I wanted to purchase and I made my offer and he went to speak to Mr. Akram Ali (my capable Sales Manager !!) and came back with THE BEST PRICE I FOUND after searching the market for quite a while both online and in person. No other dealership beat their price. It took me a couple of hours to think about it and I was under no pressure and after I agreed to the deal the GREAT SERVICE DIDN'T END THERE !!! They located a sparkling brand new 2014 Civic at another dealership in the exact color I picked and had it ready for me as promised on the date they specified. Then came another surprise .... They even threw in a Genuine Honda Trunk Liner, Wheel Locks and mud Splash Guards in the wheel wells absolutely free and WITHOUT ME EVEN ASKING. When I went to sign the paperwork, Andre and Akram took the time to explain everything to me without any hurry. Then Andre took me to my new car and stood for a long time explaining every single feature in it without losing patience. And after all the paperwork was slowly and thoroughly explained (without any pressure or rush to sign) , Akram the manager came back out again to say Goodbye and all in all the service was ABSOLUTELY TERRIFIC . They are the most respectful, honest and customer friendly dealership I have ever seen and they seem to have the most awards for excellence in service than any other place too !!! Thank You so much DCH Academy Honda. There's no better place to get your next Honda !!

My wife and I had visited several dealerships to test drive a possible replacement my older Toyota . We stopped by Academy for a test drive and had the pleasure of meeting Joe Guzzo. Although our first visit was solely for a test drive, Joe was extremely respectful in how he treated us and answered our questions. We were both impressed with his demeanor and how he was able to address our comments without relying on "sales speak". When we decided to lease a new Accord, of course he helped us through the entire process to make it pain-free.Management also deserves my thanks. During negotiations, I felt that I got a good deal without unnecessary back-and-forth.

I contacted DCH Honda Academy online for a price quote. Fortunately David Mazurek was the sales rep who replied and I made an appointment to see the cars I was interested in . This Salesman is the nicest guy I have ever dealt with in a dealership. No pressure! Easy to work with! Great communicator! I ended up buying a factory certified 2009 Honda Accord for my 19 year old daughter. When we brought it home, we heard a creaking noise in the front end. Apparently it was the right CVJ. Took it back to dealership and they replaced the right CV axle shaft, no questions asked! Service department reps were professional, friendly, and well-trained. I definitely recommend this dealership.

I ended up buying a factory certified 2009 Honda Accord for my daughter at a fair price. She was happy and my husband was happy to have her in a car she felt safe in. When we brought it home, we heard a creaking noise in the front end. Apparently it was the right CVJ. Took it back to dealership and they replaced the right CV axle shaft, no questions asked, no charge! Service department reps were professional, friendly, and well-trained.

In going over reviews many reviews good and bad just use subjective terms. Here are just the facts. 1) when my wife and I when to look at a Honda accord ex-l V-6 we were lucky enough to get Adam Chu as our sales associate. He answer any and all of my questions and concerns in a clear and educated manner. If I need to buy another car and he is still there, I will only want to use him. 2) The price they gave me off the bat was as good or better than any dealer I went too. 3) after the car was paid for I thought Adam would just hand of the keys and we will leave. No Adam spent at least 45 minutes with my wife showing her many features of the car. The manager Paul was very curious and even parts that you have to deal with a car dealer (extended warranties,etc),this was done in an extremely professional manner. I will have no problem recommending this dealership to anyone looking for a Honda. Thanks for being stand up guysThe Gonzalez family

I leased a new car and purchased my 2nd used car from this dealer. The group was easy to work with and the customer service is second to none. The sales team was good, but the prep team has a little lacking in the attention to detail. The car was CPO, but there were a few minor things (fog lights not working, interior not as clean as it could be, missing 3rd key, and missing radio code). Nothing that can't get taken care of, but attention to detail on my first two purchases is why I returned for my 3rd.

My wife and I visited many dealerships in search of a new car and DCH ended up being our last stop. The warm atmosphere and friendly interactions with their staff was very memorable. The best part of the experience with DCH was dealing with Khalil. This mans professionalism, knowledge, integrity and sense of humor eased the entire process. Not once did we feel pressured to buy anything or felt that we were pains in the neck asking so many questions. When the time comes to purchase another vehicle we really hope to deal with him again! DCH and Khalil both provided a wonderful car purchasing experience! I would highly recommend dealing with them if you are in the market for new or used vehicles. Best Regards, Anibal

Khalil turned a usual trying experience into a most enjoyable one. His intelligence and sense of humor added much to the process of purchasing the 2014 Honda Accord. His fairness and honesty lent much to instilling confidence in this dealership.I certainly would recommend this dealership to friends and relatives but more so I would tell them to ask for Khalil.Keep up the great work!

Awesome...Awesome...Awesome.... I want to Thank Mark Kamatoy from internet department and Paul Aweeky from sales department for their wonderful and professional services. I had been shopping for car for 4 weeks and got couple of quotes for 2014 Honda Accord EX but when I went to dealership they start charging me tons of different fees, but with the DCH it's totally different. You pay exactly what you have been quoted "NO TRICKS and NO HIDDEN CHARGES". Everything was upfront and there was no concept of negotiation that saved lots of my time. Paul from sales department showed me all new features very patiently and answered all my questions and made sure that I fully understood. No pressure to buy a car. I bought car on my first visit to DCH which itself shows how much satisfied I was. I would definitely recommend DCH Academy Honda to any and every one.

I leased my new Accord here at the beginning of this month after being referred to this dealership by a family friend. From the moment I walked in I was treated with the utmost respect, courtesy and professionalism. John, the sales manager was the first person I met with and he was extremely helpful. He asked me a few questions and ultimately gave me honest answers about what was best for me. As the process continued we then met with Sam, the sales consultant and he was extremely humble. Sam sat down with me and walked me through everything and explained everything clearly. Before dotting the i's and crossing the t's it was on to Stephen, the finance manager who was very funny and also explained all the paperwork that needed to be signed. At the end Sam took me to my new car and explained everything about the new vehicle. Not only that but Sam then followed up with me the following day (on a Sunday) to see how everything was. For me that is service that is above and beyond. Ultimately the price, the service, the courtesy, the professionalism and the respect that was shown to me was amazing and I would definitely recommend John, Sam, Stephen and all of the DCH Academy Honda folks if you are in the market for new Honda!!!

I have been a consumer for several years and my recent experience visit at DCH Academy Honda has been by far the easiest and fastest car buying experience to date, all thanks to Paul Aweeky! The awful stigma of walking to a car dealership where you are supposed to be armed ready to fight and haggle was quickly dispelled upon meeting Paul. He was professional, helpful and experienced. Thank you!

I needed to convert to a larger vehicle with new additions to my family. I have owned Jeeps for over a decade. I was hesitant to make the change. Jeeps are fun and really my style, but my stepson, stepdaughter, baby & 2 dogs could never go anywhere in one vehicle. Not only do I love my new Honda Odyssey, but a had the greatest experience ever while purchasing it! Andre Yulfo is great! I went without my husband so I could not be pressured into anything on the spot. I wanted to take the van for a spin & have time to make my decision. Andre sat me down and asked me what I wanted - not just the model, but what I was looking for in the vehicle. It was like the build your own portion of the website but with a salesperson. There was absolutely no pressure. Believe it or not, he even talked me out of something I was on the fence about, bringing down the price of the van. We found the exact model I wanted and he gave me an estimate of what it would cost me. Needless to say, I took it for a drive, ran home, grabbed my husband and turned right around to buy my van.I hope Andre continues to work at Academy Honda for a long time! Hondas have a good reputation but I plan to buy every car from this day forward from Andre! He is truly an honest sales person.

After 3+ weeks of shopping around for a new car, I thought I was never going to come across an honest dealer. My boyfriend, who is a 7th time returning customer to DCH, told me that our search would end once we stepped foot in DCH and he was more than right! Otis is hands down the nicest, kindest and most caring person that there is. He truly does care for his customers, and he always makes sure that they are getting the best deal possible. Any question that you may have he answers it. I leased a 2014 Honda Civic EX-L from DCH. I was not able to get to the dealership until late Monday night, not once did Otis rush myself or my family because of the time. Steve, who we dealt with in finance, was magnificent as well! I never thought I would enjoy signing paperwork. He was thorough with explaining all the paperwork and he kept us smiling the whole time. After all was said and done, Otis clocked out and then brought me out to my brand new car. He then proceeded to take me through all the features the car had. Once again, not once did he rush me or my questions regardless of the time. My post purchase experience is exceptionally outstanding as well! Otis followed up several times to see how I was enjoying the car, and to make sure everything was going well which it most certainly is I LOVE my Civic! All I can say is WOW! Otis really went above and beyond for me, and I cannot express how much I appreciate it. I would most definitely recommend Otis Vidale to ANYONE who is interested in looking for a new vehicle. Five stars and two thumbs up for DCH Academy Honda!!!!!

I just bought my second Honda CRV! I had my original for over 14 years and still running good with over 255k miles. Thanks to Otis Vidal my whole experience in buying my new CRV was great. Extremely friendly, honest and made me feel good in buying my new car. Even in the pouring rain while trying to show me the car he still managed to make it exciting to get the car. Thank you Otis!

I purchased a 2014 Honda Accord through DCH Academy dealer Sam Beshay. Sam was patient, honest, and very helpful in helping my husband and I get a fair price on the car. It was a pleasant and stress-free experience, much unlike previous ones. We would most definitely recommend him to anyone in the market for a new car.

This was our second time coming here. The first, for a used 2005 Honda Accord LX and now, for the family car, a used 2011 Subaru Forester. It was, yet again, made a very great experience by Mr. Tim Crowly for his outstanding customer service, quality of work, friendliness, knowledge of the vehicle, and him being able to help work out an amazing price. I would absolutely recommend this dealership to friends and family. Thanks again, Tim, for everything! We are very glad you were able to help us again with the purchase of another vehicle!

I have been a Honda owner for 15 years and four vehicles now. This past experience with DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge was one of the best car buying experiences I have had yet. My Sales Consultant Joe Guzzo was very helpful with my selection process as well as exactly what I can expect throughout the entire purchase procedure. No pressure tactics no corporate sales statements he simply wanted to make sure that I was comfortable with my decision and that I was getting what I wanted. This included a trade-in of my existing vehicle.I would highly recommend working with Joe if you decide to visit this Dealership.

Khalil, and the whole group at DCH are extremely professional, respectful of customers, and attentive to their needs. I am very happy with my vehicle and equally happy with DCH. I would certainly recommend Khalil and DCH Honda to car shoppers.

I needed to lease a low cost car for my daughter who is going to Grad School. I researched and decided on a Honda CRV. My initial contact was via internet. They were very responsive and willing to help. I received initial pricing that was competitive, While not the best initial price, I had heard they were a good dealership to work with. I went into the dealership and met with the salesperson (Mike). He was very nice and was willing to work with me. I did leave that day, but called and emailed Mike over the next week and made a deal for a very fair price for the lease. I was very happy with the purchase process and the team at the dealership. I would recommend giving Mike a ring if you need a Honda.

I went to return my leased Honda CR-Z and to lease a new 2014 Civic Si Sedan. I worked with Manager Akram Ali to negotiate the deal and work the numbers that best suited my budget. Akram even did all of this over the phone to get the ball rolling ahead of time. He then had Joe Guzzo take over to iron out all of the details and finalize the paperwork. Akram is an amazing manager and so easy to work with. He goes out of his way to help in any way he can and provide the best service! Working with Joe was such a pleasure. He explained every detail to me and was very friendly and courteous. I actually had a great time and a flawless purchase in the end. DCH Academy is the best Honda dealer that I have dealt with! My overall experience was outstading! Keep up the superb service and support!!!

This is my second time new car purchase with this dealer. They have very good deals and match the competitive offers. Their staff is very friendly. Paul Aweeky helped me decide between Pilot and Honda Odyssy. He is very knowledgeable and friendly. He has answered all my questions through email and by phone. He has explained all the features of the car. Also he has tried for the best offer I was looking for. I will recommend him highly to my friends for their next purchase. Also he called me after the purchase to check if I had any questions.

I came in to do some research because I'm in the market for a new car. Everyone told me Hondas are the best value for your money, and I was really interested in the Honda Fit. I know that car salesman have a bad rep and they're all in it for the commission, so I was dreading the experience since this was my first time buying a new car. That said, I had a WONDERFUL experience at this dealership, especially in terms of the service I got from Paul Aweeky. He told me he only started at this dealership recently, so I'm glad I waited til now to come in. He was so straightforward with me about prices and what things are really worth spending the money for. We went over all of our options and even though I haven't made choice which car I'm going to buy yet, I know I will definitely be buying it from Paul at DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge! I'd recommend that anyone in the market for a new or used vehicle visit this showroom and request Paul specifically!

I have Hondas and decided to trade my Civic in for a new one. The question is which Dealer do I go to?? I checked dealerrater.com and ACH Academy Honda had good ratings and I can understand why. I liked the reviews on Joseph Guzzo so I decided to meet with him. I was quoted a price and Joe honored the purchase price. No back and forth, haggling, low ball, or bait and switch games here. We were at the dealership most of the afternoon, but that's ok as we were in no hurry and we were very comfortable. I've always purchased new cars but dreaded the negotiating process, but this went smooth. I did not return to previous Honda Dealers where I purchased as there were small issues, and that's why wanted to search for a new dealer. Besides Joe Guzzo and Stephen Chung, I met with the manager Bill, who is also very nice.As far as my trade, I was a little disappointed I didn't get more of a fair value for it. I traded in a 2010 Civic in very good condition with 18000 plus miles on it. But I did agree on this sale so it can happen. If you get a good quote on one end, the dealership will make up for it on the other end. I've been buying new autos since I started driving.Joseph Guzzo not only made the deal happen, but was very patient. He spent time with us explaining everything about the car, especially the new features and sometimes repeated to help us understand. We are adapting to the new features, like push button start nicely. I love Hondas and have an older Honda Fit and wouldn't hesitate to deal with Joseph Guzzo and DCH Academy in the future or recommending them to Family and Friends.

Today I have just gotten my first car. It is a used 2005 Honda Accord LX. I had a very wonderful experience. The reason for my rating is because the customer service was outstanding, the price was great, it was a very friendly atmosphere, and an amazing quality of work. We went for a test drive and we were informed everything about the car. I would also like to give a very special thanks to Mr. Timothy Crowly for his outstanding time, effort, information about the car, friendliness, and quality of work. I would definitely recommend this dealer to friends and family. Mr. Tim Crowly helps give this dealership a great name! Thanks for all of your help!

I was in this dealership this morning to lease another Honda Accord and my total experience was incredible. Not only was the staff friendly but they were all extremely efficient. Essam Beshay was one of the best sales associates I have ever dealt with. He was organized, honest, and amazing. What he said was what he did. The whole process from start to finish today was less than an hour! I did a lot of the buying process with Essam over the phone this week and when I walked in the door today everything was above and beyond what he told me I would encounter! Excellent service from everyone there and I would definitely be leasing my next car with him/them again!

My experience with Mr Tim Crowley has always been a pleasant one. Beside the fact that he provide you with vital information regarding the car, he takes his time to explain the pros and cons of the car making it very easy to make a decision. He is very friendly and very patient working with his customers. I have so far purchase about five cars from the company through him because of my utmost satisfaction in the way he treat me. I will recommend him to anyone who needs good car salesman.

This is my 3rd Honda and I can't imagine buying another one from any other dealership but DCH. My overall experience with DCH was excellent. It all started with truecar.com. I received about 3 price quotes from competing dealerships and DCH was the lowest. My first communication with DCH was a phone call from Jennifer Calderon. I immediately felt comfortable speaking with Jennifer. We exchanged several email and phone conversations. I had many questions and Jennifer was readily available via email or telephone to answer them all. When I finally arrived at DCH I was greeted by Jennifer who introduced me to Andre Yulfo. Jennifer explained to Andre that I was a true car customer and told him the car I was interested in and gave him the price I was quoted. At this point Andre took over. I felt very comfortable with Andre as well. He was friendly, personable and an overall nice guy. Andre went over all the paperwork explaining all the numbers to me. There were no surprises, I was paying exactly what I was quoted. I wanted to keep my payments under a certain amount and Andre was able to get me more than what I was offered for my trade in. Andre took care of all my insurance requirements, registration, plates, etc. Andre then introduced me to Lily Li who is the Finance Manager. Lily was also very nice. She explained all the different warranties available and was able to cancel my existing extended warranty for which I will be receiving a refund for unused portion. I'm very happy with my purchase and will be using DCH to service my car as well (even though I live in SI). They took care of some minor scratches and cleaned my engine (you can eat off this thing now) A very satisfied customer. Thank you DCH.

I came in to view a vehicle to possibly purchase. Eileen was very rude and acted as if I was burdening her. I' ve never received treatment like this from any salesperson in any establishment I've ever dealt with. She didn't seem to know any of the few questions I asked her. Needless to say after about a half hour I gave up. I feel sorry for anyone else that has to deal with her and cannot see how she has a job there. I bought my new car elsewhere that day.

From start to finish, the overall experience with DCH Honda Academy was fantastic. In doing my research for a new Honda Civic, I was quoted a few different prices by three dealerships. Although DCH Honda's price wasn't the lowest of the three (and trust me, their pricing was pretty impressive regardless), I decided to go with this dealership because I have a family history of people purchasing cars from DCH. At the dealership Sam Beshay worked with us not only to match the other dealership's pricing, but he beat it! In addition to the amazing deal we got with Sam, our financing person Vipin worked with us to give us the best APR available for my credit history and went over all the packages and options for maintenance on my new car in detail. After all the signing and paperwork was said and done, Sam went over all the features of my new car and answered any questions that I had. At the end of the day, I was glad that I made the decision to go to DCH and would recommend any new car buyer to DCH. It was one of the best car buying experiences I have every had.

It's not often that one goes out to purchase a car and does so while meeting, probably, the friendliest and genuinely nice person. Otis Vidale is exactly what any business what any business wants an employee to be and DCH Academy Honda has it. When I tell you I came in to DCH on numerous occasions and called probably about the same amount of times . Otis answered every question I had and kept telling me to come in and he will show me instead of just telling. Thanks Otis for an easy and fun transaction.

We bought Pre-owned Honda civic for my son over the weekend, from start to finish Joe was very helpful knowledgeable and understood all our concerns. We liked the car we bought but after test drive we noticed that bumper on the car was broken. We were disappointed, but Joe assured us that it going to be fixed. When we came back after two days the car had the new bumper, and it looked like brand new car. This shows that Joe went above and beyond to take care of his customers.Thank you Joe for your excellent service and for making our car buying experience wonderful!!!

As a loyal customer of five purchases of Honda's at Academy and eleven referrals I'm was quite disappointed in the completion of my last car CRV-purchase on Wednesday April 16th 2014. The temporary 20 day NJ registration issued on 4/16/2014 expired on May 5th, under # XXXX, I do not believe that it should take over four weeks to register a car. Registration finaly available on May 8 2014, after numberous communications.This is unacceptable, and i truly hope that this was an isolated case.Joseph A. Morales

A couple of weeks ago I got stuck in the rain with my car going through a puddle that turned out to be deeper than I thought. My engine stalled out and it had to leave it stranded there because I was with the little girl I babysit for. My first car. My freedom. The only thing I had that was my own; something I worked so hard to earn. The mechanic told me the engine needed to be replaced and then I knew it was pretty much totaled because replacing the engine costs more than the car is worth, not to mention the amount of money I paid for it plus the amount of money I put into repairs/maintenance. I'm a full time student and I pay for almost everything on my own with little help from my family. Needless to say, no car meant no work, no money, no bills paid. I kept running into one problem after another. Eventually I had to let go of the fact that there had to have been something better coming soon, I hoped it would be a reliable and affordable used car. Finally went to DCH Honda and when I walked in the first face I saw was Sanjay's. He welcomed me with his kind smile and listened to what I wanted withough trying to sway me in a way that would stretch me too thin with money. He understood my situation and did everything he could to show me the best options. As we test drove one of the cars and compared vehicles he walked me though every feature and explained things to me in a gentle way. Never made me feel stupid, instead he made me feel competent and confident by teaching me and reminding me that I, as the customer, am I'm control. He was more than helpful and knowledgeable through the whole process. I learned so much just from talking to him. It was like buying a car from a family member, like an uncle or something. I wound up driving away in my gently used, 2011 Honda Fit. And I love it. It's perfect for me and it's affordable. I'm so happy that a difficult situation turned into something good and it wouldn't have happened without the kindness of people like Sanjay. He made this experience so easy and it made me so happy to buy a car from someone who is humble, family oriented, kind and encouraging. Many of the other staff members had similar qualities that helped make the experience awesome.

I thought that I had entered the Land of Oz when I visited DCH Academy Honda on US Highway 9 in Old Bridge. The experience of leasing a new 2014 Honda CR-V here was the best ever. I have purchased 6 new Hondas in my lifetime. My 2011 Honda CR-V was towed off of the Garden State Parkway. My usual dealer arranged service at this dealership because it was closer to where I was. Eric in the service department at Academy Honda telephone me when the car arrived then phoned again with a solution, cost estimate and time table. When I arrived to pick up the car, I was surprised that it took only two interactions to retrieve it.I walked in, identified myself, Eric came forward to collect me, explained the service report and showed me to the cashiers window. The trade-in assessment that I asked for on the phone was ready and he returned with Andre Yulfo as I finished up with the cashier. Working with Andre from sales and Steve Chung from finance was easy. The workflow of documents, offers and negotiations was straightforward without pressure. Andre patiently explained every option and encouraged me to consider leasing for the first time. Steve fact-checked all of the paperwork and made sure that I understood and was happy with all of the terms. Within a little less than three hours I drove away in a new 2013 CR-V. There was no drama, no excessive waiting or delays and no diversion of attention from me during that time. I am confident that the deal was fair and honest. Its a good feeling. I am over the rainbow happy. And I will definitely visit this dealership again for service and future Hondas. JoAnn TropianoMay 10, 2014

Came to this dealership to look for a car for my son. Salesman, Tim Crowley, was very helpful and knowledgeable. After looking at a few cars I told him that I was going to get quotes from other dealerships since this was the first stop I had made and he didn't make me feel guilty. After looking around I decided to come back to DCH Academy Honda, one of the reasons being that the salesman didn't pressure me. Once there everything went smoothly from beginning to end. Everything was done professionally and in a timely manner. He kept me updated as to what I had to get done. Overall great experience. I would recommend this dealership to everyone. Thanks for making my sons first car shopping experience a pleasant one, Tim!Anthony Carrubba

This was our first Honda and first ever lease which presented a different mind set then an outright purchase. Our sales consultant, Joe Guzzo, made the process extremely easy, especially with his laid back and pleasantly upbeat personality. First, my wife and I each road tested a CR-V and an Accord before deciding on the CR-V. Joe explained the trim options for each model which helped us decide on the AWD EX-L. We next discussed the financial aspects of leasing versus purchasing and decided leasing was the way to go on this vehicle as we were able to get a more fully equipped vehicle for a lower monthly payment than would have been possible if purchasing. We were introduced to Akram Ali, a dealership manager, who assured us the dealership was their to assist us in every way possible regarding the acquisition and future service. Finance manager Lily Li was next introduced to us to go over the details of the financial obligation. Lily was truly enthusiastic about us getting our first Honda and appreciative of our doing business with DCH.The car was picked up a few days later after being delivered to the dealership and prepped. After finishing up the financial paperwork with Lily, Joe took us out to the car and explained operating the remote start and door opening process. He next set up our two iPhone's for hands free operation and explained the various controls for dash and audio system display options, the electronic connectivity and charging port access, seat and stering wheel positioning, climate controls as well as the rest of the cars features. As we finished up Akram came over to make sure all was well and congratulated us once again on the new vehicle.All in all it was a very pleasant experience for what we have previously encountered in other car dealerships as being somewhat stressful. I would absolutely recommend DCH Academy Honda and specifically Joe Guzzo to anyone contemplating a new Honda.

Just purchased a 2014 Honda CR-V from Academy Honda. The entire experience was smooth and pleasant. From the trade in to the purchase I was very satisfied with Khalil Quraishi, my salesman and the staff. Everything went smooth and easy and I was able to drive home that same nite with my new CR-V. Thank you to everyone at DCH Academy Honda.

I bought a new Prius this past weekend from DHC Academy Honda and I couldn't have asked for a better or more positive car-buying experience! My salesman, Joe Lisciandri, was very professional, easy to work with, very knowledgeable about the car and friendly to me. He was patient and made sure to answer all of my questions. I will spread the word about how great this dealership is with everyone I know!! Thank you, Ken Z.

I recently purchased a 2014 Honda CRV and I just wanted to say that my sales consultant Andy Lau was excellent, kind and helpful. He answered all of my questions and addressed all of my concerns with all the honest ways. The internet consultant Mark Kamatoy was so helpful too. Both were extremely professional. Andy Lau made my purchase comfortable and very easy. This was a great experience and I feel very comfortable and strongly recommend my friends to Andy Lau at DCH Academy Honda.

I've been to other new car dealerships & have never felt comfortable. Never seemed to be treated right. That all changed when my wife & I went to DCH Honda on Rt 9. We were treated with total respect. The manager John Nguyen & salesman Essam Beshay made the experience so positive & easy. At no time did we feel pressured at all. They just made us feel right at home. I would highly recommend this dealership to anyone looking for a new Honda.

I needed a new key for my Honda Accord as my old one broke. I called a tow truck to come to my home (which is only 4 miles from the DCH Academy Honda on Route 9) at 2pm. However, they didn't get to me until 5:40 and the dealership closed at 6pm on this particular day. I called the dealership to inform them that the tow truck was running really late and that I wouldn't get to them until about 6:05pm - 6:15pm and was wondering if they'd be able to wait for me. Luckily for me they did, with no hesitation. I arrived at 6:10 and Enrique immediately began to help me and promptly began my service. I am so grateful to him and the rest of the Honda staff for staying past closing hours on a Saturday to make me a new key. If it weren't for them I would have been without my car until that Monday. I highly recommend DCH Academy Honda on Route 9. The entire staff was friendly, helpful, and got me in and out in no time. Ask for Enrique, he will give you fast, reliable, quality customer service!!

Have had an outstanding experience in getting my car serviced at this dealership. Have invariably dealt with Sylwester Brulinski as the service agent. He is a reliable and honest guy who is fair with his recommendations. I found him to be frank and candid enough to distinguish between repairs that are a must have versus those that are optional. Extremely professional.

We just recently purchased a 2014 Honda Accord EX from DCH Academy Honda, and love our new vehicle. Working with Joe Guzzo was a pleasure-no pressure, just patience. He was very knowledgeable, courteous, and allowed us the time we needed to consider our options without being pushy. Joe managed to get us top value for our trade in, and made the deal happen! Steve made the financing process so streamline and explained everything thoroughly. What a great team-like working with friends! We certainly will consider DCH for future purchases and will be happy to recommend.

We just purchased our new honda accord from DCH, and Eileen was extremely helpful through the whole experience. We were originally choosing between Nissan Altma and Honda Accord. After visiting Nissan dealer, we were so impressed by the quality and design of the new Accord immediately after the test drive. Eileen is very knowledgeable of all the functions of the car, and she was very patient in explaining the functions to us during our test drive. I have to say, we were charmed by the car because of Eileen's excellent demonstration :). Compared to the staff at the Nissan dealer, we felt people at DCH are way more professional! We actually went to another honda dealer because they offered us a cheaper price on line. After speaking to the other dealer, we thought they would have a significantly better offer with more discounts. Yet the experience was a disaster at the other dealer - firstly, they canceled three different discounts for various arbitrary reasons; then our car broken down, cannot be started at all, after their evaluations for trade-in values. It's such an coincidence especially because we just had our mechanic checked the car the day before we visited the other dealer!!! We were outraged and confused; but instead of being understanding and kind, the person at the other dealer was sort of blaming us for brining in a junk car that they had to push back to their parking lot!! I guess they were so confident that we would definitely have to buy their car. Absolutely not!Even though the other dealer was $200 cheaper (instead $1000 cheaper according to what we spoke on the phone before we visited them in person!), we can't wait to go back to DCH. So I called Eileen and asked if they would still take our trade in car even if it cannot be started, and they said "don't worry about it; just tow the car to us." And DCH even matched the price differences for us!! How amazing!We bought the car that afternoon from DCH, and we can't be happier with the hassle free experiences at DCH. Stephen was the manager that day who explained every payment option to us; and Stephen was very patient and clear. Thanks to Eileen and Stephen, we are having a great time driving our new car everyday :).

In response to an online request for quotes on a new Honda Odyssey EX, we were surprised & delighted at the thoroughness of a price & fee report that came so quickly from Megan Byrnes of DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge. We received other quotes from other dealers, but they gave only MSRP. We contacted 3 other dealerships, & none was as forthcoming as our experience with Academy. The numbers we got from Ms. Byrnes could not be beat, & the promptness & helpfulness of all our interactions with her was most impressive. If you are looking for a Honda, start with Academy. Megan Byrnes took all the work & hassle out of buying a new car.

I came first for a test drive to DCH Honda and drove the Honda CRV. I explained that I would be going also to Toyota and Nissan all in the same day. Joe Guzzo helped my boyfriend and I am answered our many questions with patience. he was very knowledgeable, friendly and the whole experience was pressure free! Not once did we talk money or credit, he was that confident that we would be back. He was right. After finishing the test drives at the other local dealers we came back to Joe and he made us feel right at home. We were the last people in the dealership Saturday night and I greatly appreciate the time he took with us. It is a wonderful feeling to be able to walk out of the dealership with a vehicle AND price that you are happy with. Thank you Joe for making my experience pain and hassle free!

It was a pleasure doing business with her. Also, dealing with Megan Byrnes and Pete Modzelewski was a pleasure. Needed a part replaced for the navigation system and they got it repaired at no cost to me. I would definitely buy from them again and recommend them to family and friends.

Professionalism at par.This dealership is ideal for hassle free, transparent buying process. I communicated online for a couple of days with Mark Kamatoy and decided to make the purchase before even stepping inside the dealership.Mark gave me an online quote with an impressive detail, the price was the lowest among all the Honda Dealers I have requested quotes from.He answered all my questions promptly and went to great lengths to keep the communication straight forward. There wasn't any detail about the buying process, which I wan not aware of when I went for the purchase.Once at the dealership, Eric took over. He is swift and efficient with the formalities of the buying process. He also assisted me to get a Graduate Discount offered by Honda. I was out of the dealership in less then 2 hours, completely satisfied. Overall, I would recommend everyone interested in buying a new Honda to give a strong consideration to DCH Academy Honda.

At most times purchasing a new vehicle is like getting a needle from the doctor for the first time. How bad is the pain going to be? Ryan Hoey was the the medicine that made the pain go away. I was quoted a price over the telephone from Lisa and that was the exact price I paid when I purchased the vehicle from Ryan. There was no pressure, everyone was friendly and professional. The showroom made you feel welcome. If you live in Brooklyn or Staten Island believe me it's worth the trip and the price to go to Old Bridge. Good luck and safe driving.

We first came to this dealership in 1997 and purchased a new Honda Civic. We had that Civic for over 15 years and our family has been leasing from DCH Academy Honda since 2007. Every sales consultant we have come into contact with is friendly and personable. Our salesman the last two lease purchases has been Joe Guzzo and he is by far a top notch salesman looking out for the best interest of the customer. My family no longer lives near DCH Academy Honda, but we still took the 45 minute drive to go back to our long term dealership!

I've been looking for a Honda accord for a few weeks. I stopped in Academy Honda cold looking for a test drive and to discuss the purchase of an Ex model. I was introduced to Paul Aweeky one of there sales reps. Paul was low keyed with no pressure. I went on a test drive in a few minutes. We discussed my needs and I had question or two Paul couldn't answer. Alarm Ali entered the discussion and between the two men in a few minutes I had a deal I was very happy with along how I was treated. I signed the deal. The next day I went back to meet with the F/I manager to go over all the paper work. It went very easy. Paul then brought me to my car and went over all the features till I was satisfied. I was VERY satisfied how Academy treated me and would tell anyone looking for a Honda to ask for Paul. You will be as happy as I am.

My husband and I worked with Sam and Steve in the purchase of our 2014 CRV. Both Sam & Steve were extremely professional, while at the same time approachable - taking care to answer our questions and outline the "fine print" prior to making a purchase. At no point did we feel the typical high pressure sales often associated with car dealerships. DCH took care to make our experience both smooth and exciting! Special thanks to Sam for taking my and my husband's picture in front of our new car! We are recently married and it was a nice moment, as it's our first 'big' purchase together. If you are looking for a professional and personal experience in making an important purchase, like a new vehicle, go to DCH. We did our research before selecting a dealership to purchase our car, and their reputation remains high because they do not fall below the bar of providing exceptional customer service!

It was a welcome surprise to have someone who was honest, professional and had great follow up skill. When the car I Initially inquired about was not available she suggested one that was far better and I love it which is a 2012 Honda Accord fully loaded she and the others at DCH worked out such a great deal for me. I couldn't be happier. I would highly recommend to others to shop here.

DCH Honda Old Bridge is an amazing dealership. everyone is friendly, very supportive. I went there with nothing close to the price ranges I researched online. Dave Harris was amazing enough to make it all happen to leave with the exact car that brought me to the dealership in the first place. Great guy. I would surely recommend this dealership to a friend.

This dealer made the car buying process a very pleasant experience. Very honest and true sales people. I couldn't have asked for more. You've earned a permanent customer for years to come.

I love my new color Konan CR-V, it was the best experience I had at the dealership with my husband. We were expected at certain time , arrive at time and everything was ready for us, even the car. Our sales person Otis was absolutely excellent. The finance manager Tian Reid was super professional with the deal and contract. Even the manager Chris was professional and very understanding. Overall, the communication , sales, finance, and waiting was awesome!! love it. I am super happy customer with my new car.

Excellent customer service experience, I didn't feel I had spent this much money. The team was very knowledgable and friendly. All suggestion were taken positively and they both had great suggestions to suit my needs. Joseph is a wonderful sales associate and Stephen is GOD when it comes to the financial aspect. Thank you Honda for having employees like these 2 individuals. I know I would enjoy my 1st New Car. I would recommend this branch to my friends. Stephen, you have me as a customer for life.

I was searched car in all dealership and finally choose this place for my car. I had taken two cars so far from them and they are the best in price and having clean cars. Sales Person Tim Crowley did a wonderful job during the business with DCH. DCH Honda prices are low compare with other Honda dealers near by, they provide best price and service was nice. I really recommend this dealer for cars. Even i had some body work with my car and they did free of cost and it came out nice and clean.

I was looking into buying the 2014 Honda CRV EXL with navigation. I did all my research and I was ready. I have visited dealerships before but was not ready to buy. However, I was never offered anything to make me buy. I decided to go to DCH Academy because a co worker bought her CRV there and I also read a few reviews about the dealership.I went with my wife to DCH Academy Honda and within seconds of entering, I was assigned to a salesperson. Ryan Hoey was my salesperson and he was great. He had me test driving the Honda CRV EXL with Navigation within 5 minutes. Ryan Hoey knew the vehicle inside and out and answered all my questions. We sat down and I told him that I was interested in buying but I was not trying to make a decision that day. This was the first dealership I visited and I wanted to visit a few more dealerships before making the decision. I did mention my TRUE CAR certificate and vehicle prices were given to me. No pressure. The manager, Akram Ali, came over and sweetened the deal. No pressure and the conversations were pleasant. I was expecting to get a headache from the sales pitch and negotiations(I have had some annoying experiences in past) but was pleasantly surprised on how smooth it was going.My wife and I decided to leave to take a breather and think about a decision. It is a big purchase. We came back 2 hours later and made the decision to buy. I only added side body molding to vehicle.The vehicle was not at the dealership, so we had to come back a few days later for pick up and finance.I dealt with Lily Li from finance. I did get the finance rate from the promotion. Lily did explain the other options about warranties but I declined. No pressure. Lily was very nice.Ryan, Akram and Lily were all great and very pleasant to work with. The whole experience made me want to buy a few more cars(I wish I had more money). The total time at dealership was around 3 hours. That is 3 hours for 2 days. Quick and painless.Don't waste your time with other dealerships unless you wish to get a headache and get frustrated. Go to DCH Academy Honda, you will be pleasantly surprised with your experience.Definitely ask for Ryan Hoey when you visit!

Our experience (my husband and I) with DCH Honda was very pleasant. They were attentive, polite and explained thoroughly. When we were ready to walk out on the first deal they presented, they worked with us to accomodate our needs as much as possible. They gave us a couple of free gifts that would of cost around $800.00 (as they offer these protection products for sale) and we were not expecting it. The Honda Odessy EX-L lease, trading in the Honda Civic 2011 went smoothly and the appraisal was a wash. We did not owe anything on the Honda Civic and we literally went in with no down payment. Basically we paid our taxes and motor vehicle fee's and added one protection plan and drove off with our brand new car. The manager even came out to thank us for our purchase and reminded us that if we have any further questions on the vehicle we can call them up or come in and they would gladly assist us. We left with a decent payment and a pleasant feeling about our relationship with DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge.Mr. and Mrs. Reyes

I did my homework before I came to the dealership. I was first considering the Toyota RAV because I have had a history with Toyota, "all good". When I compared the specs on both cars, I decided to come in and test drive the Honda. I knew instantly this was the one for me. Bryan went over the specs with me and gave me a tour of the facility. He tried to talk me into leasing, but I told him I was not interested and preferred to own. He than went over what was available and I asked if they had any leftover 2013s. When he told me they sold out last year, I was astonished. I personally have stopped 4 strangers (store parking lots, stores and where I live and asked them how they liked driving the CRV and they all answered me the same way - "they love it"! So I felt real good about my choice. When Akram came over and joined Bryan with negotiations, he was very supportive and understanding of my needs. I then went to meet Tian to handle the final agreements. He put the cherry on top for me by giving me sound advice on warranties that won't hurt my pocket in the end. I had a great team to work with, I am enjoying my new vehicle and crossed over to the HONDA family!

I had a great experience with Tim Crowley. He helped me find a vehicle (Honda cr-v) for my daughter Ashley. He answered all of our questions and was both knowledgeable and professional. My daughter lives in Aberdeen NJ and I live out of town. The experience was so good that even though I live out of town (4 hours away) the next time I buy a car Tim will get a shot at it.

Our sales representative was very friendly and helpful from the time we walked into the door. He answered all our questions and was very honest and straightforward with all information pertaining to the vehicle we were purchasing. He was very professional at all times. He made us feel that there are car sales reps that are trustworthy. I would highly recommend the sales rep Tim Crowley to anyone who purchases a car from this dealership.

I was greeted by the staff through out the dealership as I looked around.Even conversed in small talk with some. My Sales person Erich Tam is the BEST. He is genuinely there for you. He will help you choose the right vehicle for your lifestyle and comfort.He goes above and beyond to make sure your experience with DCH ACADEMY HONDA is pleasant. When you visit DCH HONDA BE SURE AND ASK FOR (ERICH TAM), you will NOT be disappointed as I was with the Gateway Toyota Dealership in Toms River,NJ. As I DID NOT return to purchase again. So far I have Leased and my granddaughter two 2014 Civic EX and they are working on a Honda FIT for my daughter. And my granddaughters former classmate is looking to do business with ERICH TAM also. I am telling all my friends and strangers (lol) to come to DCH ACADEMY HONDA and see ERICH TAM for their New Vehicle. Oh one more thing, they don't play GAMES they give YOU the BEST price possible.

I started looking into buying a new car since my current vehicle had 175,000 miles on it. My first contact with DCH Academy Honda was via Eileen Conlon. She was extremely pleasant over the phone and really listened to my needs. I did my due diligence and researched, shopped, and looked at other dealers. However, Eileen sounded the most trustworthy and took a genuine interest in meeting my needs. I decided to stop in for a visit and Eileen was everything that I could have hoped for. Kind, unassuming and just really made every effort to make this buying decision a pleasant experience. She never pushed anything on me, she took her time, listened and more importantly - She Never Had to Bring A Sales Manager to me!!! I'm not knocking all Sales Managers but sometimes they can drive a customer away. I dealt with one person and she made it all happen. There really was not any haggling. Again, she listened and she made it happen. She also did a great job of explaining all of the features and benefits of this vehicle. She knew the car!! Also, I would like to make mention of Stephen Chung (Finance.) He was also extremely pleasant and not at all pushy when it came time to talk about additional options such as warranties and the like. He was friendly, attentive and extremely helpful in meeting my finance goals for this purchase. He did everything possible to make the process expeditious but also made sure that there were no unanswered questions. If all of the employees at DCH Academy Honda are like Eileen and Stephen, then this is by far one of the most customer focused dealerships that exists. Eileen Conlon and Stephen Chung are truly great individuals and should be commended for their skills, knowledge and attributes! Thank you for making this the most pleasant buying experience.

Ricky Yeo and LilyLi were friendly and courteous and professional; while working to complete the sale they put your wishes first. They took the time to answer all our questions. We felt very comfortable and enjoyed the buying process; in part because they were treating us honestly. we would recommend DCH Academy Honda as a place to purchase a vehicle.

So my truck went in for service (lets note it is 3k miles into a certified used contract from another dealership) truck just got over $2500 worth of upgrades like tires, trans fluid filters so on and so fourth. After an exhausting 3.5 hour oil change the rep comes out with a heart stopping list of things that need to be done. Like trans oil , power steering fluid wiper blades. Every item that was just replaced 3 months earlier. Also $817 to replace two great condition bushings. Which I later let them replace under warrenty (yet somehow the price went down $300 for the certified coverage). Something tells me customer rip off.So the point here is they push work on the customer to make money not to be an honest dealership. Something is wrong tell people they will fix it. Scam and people will figure it out and let the world know.

Tian, Paul, Vipin and Joe are only a sneak peak at what a customer is going to experience from the moment they walk into the dealership until the moment they walk out. This company has earned it's keep at being number one in not only Customer Service and Satisfaction but literally taking care of any and all needs. The team is comprised of highly professional and highly trained associates who know how to deal with customers of all kinds. In essence the smile on your face is the result of pure craftsmanship done by an outstanding team.Honda, especially ACH is where I now have current business with, future business with and will recommend the entire staff to everybody I know.

Tim Crowley and the team at DCHAcademy Honda I would have to say after all the years of stressing out when buying a new vehicle was the most relaxing and enjoyable moment than any other dealership I have ever been too. I really appreciate the effort Tim placed in preparing for my visit to the dealership and making the process run so smoothly. I would highly recommend anyone seeking to purchase their next vehicle to meet with Tim and his team and experience that purchasing a vehicle can be a pleasant experience.

Working with Joseph Guzzo, was like sitting down with an old friend. He made the buying process fun and stress free. He took the time to explain the features in the new 2014 CR-v, as well as the payment process. All in all, I would recommend this dealership and especially Joseph Guzzo.

The most straight forward and pleasant buying experience that could be possible. Mark Kamatoy (internet based sales and leads) who is bright, articulate, pleasant, and does what he says he will do, discussed my needs over the phone and provided me detailed lease and buy information. His price was right. They work as a team and when I arrived Khalil Quraishi, New Car Sales Consultant, then took the reins and lead me though the structured purchase process. What a nice pleasant guy who clearly knows his job. I can't say enough about this guy. No surprises. Exactly what I was quoted in the email by Mark was the price I got. Every number and ever fact the same. The SUV I wanted and was told was in stock by Jennifer Calderon over the phone was there for me when I arrived to test drive with Kahalil. Numerous times from the beginning to the end every number is gone over to make sure there was no question on anything. Unlike other dealers, nothing changed, every number was correct and any question I asked I was given a straight clear answer with no hedging. Never was anyone I spoke with pushy or acted other than appropriately when it came to offering some other options that I did not choose to buy. I was given explanations and prices and then I could decide. From my observation, all the employees work well and friendly together and they have respect for the customers and fellow employees, something I certainly cannot say for other dealers. I drove and checked the CR-V EX AWD I was to buy, and multiple times, together we verified all was right. I can say I felt comfortable there and also it was obvious the owners run a tight ship focusing on customer service. Everyone I met cared, even after the purchase, to the parts guy I bought some extra wiper blades from (who instructed me how to put them on) , to the service people putting on my Spash guards, who walked me key in hand to the CR-V and wished me well as I was leaving. And, Khalil was always around making sure I was happy or if I had concerns. Come to think of it, it seemed that everyone who works in the place is focused on keeping the customer happy and making sure the customer knows they are there for them! Now I know the reason why these guys are #1. I came here for that reason and am glad I did. I would suggest both Mark and Khalil any day to anyone who might ask me based on how nice and honestly I was treated, but it seems to me, it all has to started with the owners and management, it is their vision on how to handle sales and customer service. Sometimes when you read reviews you think, man, that customer was really suckered big time, but you have to see this place for yourself, their great reviews make sense, they treat you right and respect you and their prices are right. What they say is what they do, price-wise, service wise, and customer service wise. No tricks, no sleight of hand. The numbers are real, and there are no surprises. What a pleasure to do business with these people.

I had a great experience at DCH Academy Honda. This was my first leasing experience and Khalil and the good people at DCH Academy made it as painless as possible. From when I called to inquire about the Honda Accord Coupe I was interested in, until I left there with the car, the staff there was exceptional, friendly, and courteous. Khalil made the buying process simple, breaking everything down, and not playing any games that you normally hear about from cars salesmen. Khalil was very professional and got me the best deal possible for my Accord. I will refer friends and family to DCH Academy Honda because I'm sure they will receive the same quality service as I did. Thanks again!

I really had no intentions on driving away with a new car that day, but Paul Papis made it such a pleasant experience that I couldn't say no. He made the entire buying experience very easy and comfortable from beginning to end. I've heard horror stories from friends about their experiences at dealerships, but I really can't relate. There is a Honda dealership less than 5 miles from my house, but I would travel over 60 miles (120 round trip) to come here again!

It was a pleasure to deal with Robert Levine at DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge, NJ. I had taken internet quotes for a 2014 EXL /NAV odyssey from 8 dealers that serve NJ and Robert beat each of them including the big ones - Planet Honda and Open Road. This is my seventh car and my best experience so far with any car dealer (better than the one I had when I bought a new 2012 BMW 528xi). I must compliment their management for hiring and retaining such good people. Robert is a veteran in this industry with over 20 years in this business and retains the same zeal as that of a 25 year old sales guy, but his experience and demeanor makes him far superior than anyone else. This is to anyone looking for a Honda - DCH Academy is the place - if you get Levine, it's icing on the cake. Planet and other dealers with do bait and switch , but at DCH - they treat you like family. Robert spend more than one hour after the sale explaining each feature - and I am a 39 year old techie who has driven tech loaded vehicles earlier.I found the whole gang - Lily, Tony, Sadie - very professional. New Jersey - DCH Academy Honda is the best respected dealer. I would buy here again without any reservation at all - ask for Robert Levine.

I have been doing business with Mark Kamatoy for over 5 years now. I have bought cars from other dealers, but Mark is the BEST in the business. Mark is honest and presents no BS. He will work with you based on your needs and give you the BEST DEAL for that car and options you want. Since working with Mark, I have sent over 5 other customers that have purchased cars from Mark. One of my referrals was my brother. He was researching cars and found a really good deal on a Honda Accord... he then sent me the information and asked if Mark could beat the quote he sent over. And what do you think happened?... Mark turned the really good deal into a GREAT DEAL and beat the competition! IF YOU'RE GOING TO BUY A HONDA, call Mark Kamatoy at DCH Academy Honda, Old Bridge, NJ!!!!!!!!!!!!

The DCH staff was great to work with. Ricky was helpful in explaining all of the features of several different models that we initially looked at. He took us on multiple test drives to make sure we were comfortable and understood the car we were purchasing. DCH had the inventory on hand to be able to choose our color preferences and to take delivery quickly. In the end, I was able to purchase the Odyssey that I wanted at a fair price. Vipin was great to work with as well and made the finance transaction quick and painless.

This weekend I went to renew my lease for the 2014 Honda CRV, Essam Beshay helped me out through the process which was very smooth and pleasant. He was very friendly, patient and sincere I felt very special and my business is being appreciated.

This is the 3rd vehicle I have purchased over the years from DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge and I am ALWAYS satisfied with the level of customer service and the willingness of the sales staff to work with me to get the deal done. I have worked with Dave Mazurek each time and he's a great guy to deal with. I would (and have) highly recommend this dealership to anyone looking to purchase a Honda (either new or used).

This dealership was amazing with the time and patience they provided with us. Mr. Essam especially was very caring and gave us an amazing and affordable deal for our 2014 CRV, which is an amazing work of engineering if I might say. Thank you DCH Academy Honda and Mr. Essam for the cooperation and we hope to continue business with this dealership in future years!

This is the 3rd accord I've bought in 7 years. I've referred two friends as well. The first impression that is made is direct, friendly no BS assistance. suggestions are made with the CUSTOMER in mind. no pressure. the price is the most competitive and fair and arrived at with none of the nonsense typically associated with car shopping. that's why i keep driving over an hour to do business with DCH. Thank Paul Rittberg and my recent acquaintance Vipin.

My car buying experience with DCH Academy Honda was very smooth and pleasant. Mark gave me the pricing (all details included) over the phone. He is very frank, efficient and professional. I knew this is a best price. I scheduled an same-day appointment with him and drove 45 miles all the way to their dealership. Ricky greeted me at the helpdesk, and the rest of time, he worked with me until I got my new car. Ricky is a very sincere guy and a very professional sales. He is very helpful, knowledgeable and keen to business. He answered all my questions patiently, gave me much knowledge on car maintenance and usage. He even picked me up from the train station the next time I came to drive the car away. The whole process was absolutely pleasant, no hassle, no pressure. Everything was explained so clearly. All the paperworks are very standard. I did get the exact color (interior and exterior) of the car and the car is in excellent condition. The staffs here are very trustful and respective. I appreciate their help and time in getting me my new car. I will definitely recommend DCH Academy Honda to my friends who is considering buying a Honda car.

Joe Koedros was fantastic in all respects. The process took a while to come to a good price everyone could live with and Joe was very patient with all the changes we had made but in all we are very happy. Excellent service always and this is our second vechicle coming from him so if you go to Honda go to DCH Honda and ask for Joe Koedros!!!!!! Thanks again Amanda R. Old Bridge, NJ

I became interested in purchasing a 2014 Honda Pilot a few weeks ago. I decided to test drive a 2014 Honda Pilot at a Honda dealership close to my home hoping my plan of buying a new car could be accomplished with one stop and as simple as possible. I test drove the Pilot E-XL, loved it, and then decided to sit down with the salesman to crunch the final numbers. After reviewing the book value of my trade and being given the approximate trade in value of my vehicle, I was optimistic I was soon to be the owner of a new 2014 Honda Pilot. But then..after sitting down with the salesman and shortly thereafter his sales manager, the final trade in value offered to me on my vehicle was changed to a ridiculously low and quite honestly, an insulting low trade in value. I guess this tag team approach was supposed to convince me to lose money on my trade, give my car away, and then be happy and buy a new car? I left this dealership frustrated and annoyed. Interestingly enough this "low ball" trade in value was later rescinded by the salesman via an email, and a more appropriate trade in value was offered to me. What a way to do business!Shortly after this event, I was lured via the internet to a South Jersey dealership only to find out the next day after arriving at the dealership following a snow storm that an error was made on the written quote sent to me again pertinent to the trade in value of my vehicle. I found this out only after again test driving a Honda Pilot. Yes an "honest" $2000.00 to $3000.00 mistake was made by the internet salesperson........again obviously not in my favor! Does this all sound familiar? The good news, two weeks ago I took possession of a new 2014 Honda Pilot E-XL. This was made possible when I coincidently stopped into DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge, NJ, and meet Joseph Guzzo. From the original handshake, I felt my luck changed and I finally meet a professional salesman who knew his product, took the customers needs into consideration (Can you imagine), and was interested in an honest....yes honest and fair negation of price on a new 2014 Honda Pilot. Joe certainly knew his product and actually based on my needs made some suggestions to me (Vehicle Options) that ultimately worked to my advantage and enhanced the appearance and value of my soon to be new Pilot EX-L. I found Joe as he asked me to call him, to be personable, straight forward, honest, reliable, and sensitive to the needs of his customer. There was no pressure to rush into buying a car. No tag team sales manager approach! Based on my experience and solely in my opinion, the bottom line for all of you reading this evaluation who are interested in buying a new Honda, call Joe Guzzo, set up a time to meet with him, and brace yourself for the unusual and unexpected.......a honest and pleasurable experience in buying a new Honda! P.S. I just returned from a 10 day trip to Florida with my new Pilot-EXL. The car outperformed my expectations as well as that of my wife and the two guests who traveled with us on this trip. What a great car!

Awesome dealership. We were greeted on our first visit by Ed Moy who was attentive to our needs and concerns, and went the extra mile in pairing us with the right vehicle. We originally weren't sold but when we went to other dealerships we saw what an amazing deal we were getting at DCH, and Ed's professional courtesy in working with us and following up is certainly what closed the deal. We could not be happier with the customer service or the deal that we received. The warranty, the savings, and the model paired with the customer service is the reason I had to leave this review.

Friendly, professional and courteous staff. Process of turning in my old car for new model was made simple. Pricing was competitive. Clearly explained all financial terms of new lease. Clearly explained and showed me how to use all new features on this model compared to my prior model. Very pleasant experience and would definitely refer to others.

Really nice sales people, truly enjoyed the entire car buying experience. Had a great time bargaining with our sales rep, and we ended up negotiating a fair price I think we were both really happy with on a great car. If only every car buying experience could be so fun and rewarding.

Twice as nice!! We leased a 2013 Civic from DCH Academy Honda and Joe Koedros (Joe K.) in March 2013. Towards the end of December 2013, when our second car started to show signs of age, we checked out lease specials at Academy and saw that they were running a great special on their remaining inventory of 2013 Civics. Since our experience in March had been so good, we contacted Joe K. directly and went to see him. We walked in to the dealership and were greeted like family. Joe Scardigno saw us, remembered us and came over to say hello. Joe K. was very happy to see us. We sat and caught up for a little while and then got down to business. We had gone in with a strong idea of what we wanted to put us into another new Civic. Once Joe K. took our 98 Camry in to be evaluated, he came back and told us what they were going to do for us. We were so happy to find out that they did better for us than the deal we had hoped for. It was almost a "no brainer" for us to accept. How can you argue when they beat your own expectations?While the car was being prepped for us, Joe K. turned us over to Lily Li for the dreaded paperwork. But, she was so pleasant and easy to work with and everything went so smoothly, before we knew it, we were back at Joe's desk to get the keys.When the hardest part of getting a new car is deciding what color you want, that has to be the best car buying experience ... ever.We highly recommend DCH Academy Honda, and Joe Koedros in particular. When our leases are up, you can be sure we'll be visiting him again!! Thanks So Much!!Nancy & Paul Harris

I'd recommend DCH Academy Honda to absolutely anyone! Their customer service was beyond excellent, it truly exceeded all of my expectations. There are numerous Honda dealerships that are just minutes from my house, but after researching customer reviews and the lowest prices, everywhere pointed to DCH Academy Honda and the drive was well worth it. No wonder this place has the best reviews out of any Honda dealership in the area, it shows! DCH Academy Honda was my first stop during my car hunt. I was initially planning to shop around at other dealerships before making a decision, but their service and prices quickly made me realize that wasn't going to be necessary, I signed papers for my 2014 Accord on that first visit. It'd be silly to do business with any other Honda dealership. The atmosphere was extremely comfortable, never did I feel pressured in any way to purchase something, unlike other dealerships where dealers try to hustle and pressure you to buy. That surely was not the case here.Paul Rittberg was an absolute pleasure to work with. As soon as I walked in the dealership, he greeted me with warmth and sincerity. I'm beyond happy that it was him who approached me first, he's outstanding at his job, to say the least. He's definitely a "people person", very down to earth and extremely genuine. He was very accommodating to all of my needs and requests, and had a great deal of patience with me. He recommended options that were truly to my benefit, not his (unlike other dealers). Paul is very knowledgable and knows his job inside and out, he was beyond helpful in explaining everything I needed to know. He's truly a class act, the very best. I couldn't ask for a better experience than what Paul provided to me, and I will proudly refer all of my family and friends to him for their future car purchases.Stephen Chung also provided me with immaculate service. He was extremely professional and well spoken. Just like Paul, he is very genuine and sincere. He knows every aspect of his job, and explained everything thoroughly. He went above and beyond what I expected, that's for sure. Stephen and Paul are the best at what they do, plain and simple. Stephen was exceedingly helpful in the buying process, and I can't thank him enough for all of his help. Excellence is an understatement when referring to the service I received from Paul Rittberg and Stephen Chung, they were the perfect duo. DCH Academy Honda are lucky to have employees like Paul and Stephen, definitely the best!

I have been a customer on DCH Academy Honda Academy in Old Bridge, NJ.for the past 25 years, and have had nothing but outstanding professional and friendly experiences. Within the past year.I purchased a 2012 Honda CRV and a 2012 Honda Civic Si. I then purchased a 2013 Honda Accord Sedan Sport. Unfortunately the 2012 Honda Civic Si was involved in a accident so we got rid of it and purchased a 2013 Civic Si. Once again the staff of DCH Academy Honda did everything to make our shopping experience pleasurable, and stress free. Robert Levine, Tian and the Manager John went out of their way to make sure we received an excellent deal. We HIGHLY recommend DCH Academy Honda of Old Bridge.

My experience with DCH Academy Honda was a very positive one. Everyone was kind and helpful especially my Sales Consultant "Paul Rittberg". Paul Rittberg was recommended to me by my Brother who also purchased a vehicle from Academy Honda using Paul Rittberg as his Sales Consultant. My brother was absolutely right when he said Paul Rittberg made the car buying experience stress free. He was fair, honest and patient." I am very fortunate and thankful to Paul and Academy Honda.

My experience with Mariana Lobeto, and Andy Lau as representatives of DCH Academy Honda was indeed pleasurable and exceeded my expectations in every way. First, before my customer site visit, Mariana Lobeto was responsive and diligent in providing me detailed OTD pricing info, answering questions via phone and email. I came in and was assigned sales rep Andy Lau who was professional, cordial, responsive, easygoing; given the OTD pricing info ahead of time, there were no surprises, and I drove home with a new 2014 Honda CRV LX AWD at a decent and competitive price. I wholeheartedly recommend Mariana and Andy and DCH Academy as the place to purchase a Honda vehicle! Internet shopping is the way to go and with the right combination of customer diligence, and the right dealer (DCH Academy Honda), satisfaction will be mutual.I have already communicated to family and some friends about this positive experience and hope it will eventually lead to referrals.

We originally purchased a 2013 Honda Pilot in August from DCH Academy. Our son was looking to purchase a Honda Accord. We shopped around as any consumer would. We called Eileen at DCH and she gave us a great deal and made our second experience wonderful. I would difinetly recommend this dealership and Eileen if you need to purchase a Honda. We live in Staten Island and we went all the way to New Jersey for our car.

We are very satisfied with DCH Academy team. They worked with us especially Sam Beshay the Salesman who was very courteous and took care of everything that we wanted. It started with him showing the vehicle to our family including patiently answering all questions from my wife and children. He also explained the features of the vehicle well. He also worked with us to get a good price for the Trade-in of our existing minivan. Sam was very focused and understood our requirements. Sam's the Man you want to see! He also worked with the Finance team on getting me a few extra days to handle my auto loan even though it was the end of the year which is normally a very busy time. Had an opportunity to work with Lily Li and Tian Reid who explained the extended warranty to us and answered every question we had and gave us a attractive terms for the extended warranty. We love our van so far and would be happy to recommend this dealer to all our friends and family for their future car needs.

I purchased a certified Civic 2011 in summer in 2013. A sales manager, Ruben, was honest and sincere and said to me beforehand, they can't sell a car I was interested in for the price I had offered online when I was heading to some car dealers including DCH. A lot of car dealers try to just let customers come to their offices first for whatever reasons. But the manager was different and really tried to work with me to find out what they could do best for my car purchase by finding out the realistic options of cars within my price range. When I got to know the car I had been interested in was already sold out, I was about to leave but thanks to his persistent efforts, I was able to meet a right car for me and decided to buy it happily with total satisfaction except for sunroof.lol Also, a sales representative, Veronica, is a person who really takes care of customers and does follow-up well. I know they post very competitive prices but if they had offered some discounts from their original price, it would have made me feel like rating 5 stars. I would definitely consider this dealer as my first option when I upgrade my car or purchase a new one.

We visited numerous dealerships as we wrestled with whether to buy a new or used car. After discovering the TruCar site, we thought we would bypass the traditional tedious car buying process ... we were wrong. We visited two dealerships (not Honda) that participated with TruCar. The salespeople at those dealerships were less than truthful and the car buying experience was becoming typically undesirable. However, when we met Joe Guzzo at DCH Academy Honda, that all changed. Joe listened, was straight forward and made this car buying process our most pleasant ever. We did not have the stereotypical back and forth with Joe, we told him what we wanted and he made it happen. If more salespeople were like Joe, we would not dread the car buying process. The next time we are in the market for a car, we will seek out Joe.

I came in and left with a brand new car two hours later. Everything was explained clearly, with no games and no misleading information. Both sales representatives were very respectful. Paperwork was done in 30 min or so. I highly recommend DCH Academy Honda for great customer service and high efficiency.

Sam gave us the best offer and with exceptional courteous approach helped us drive out of the dealership with a new Odyssey after trading in our 12 year old one for a good trade in value.

I had a lease that i wanted to break with Nissan. My parents who have been dealing with DCH for some years suggested that i go see Joe Koedros to see if he could help me get in to a more economical size car instead of the gas eating machine i had. Joe was very helpful in helping me decide on a car for my needs. Joe is very knowledgeable about the cars he sells. Never at any time did i feel pressured to buying a car. Joe was more like a friend than a sales person. The finalization with the finance gentlemen Stephen Chung went very well also no pressure or hard sell. Im totally satisfied and would definitely come back to see Joe Koedros at DCH Honda of Old BridgeThank you so muchAndrea Papaleo

Excellent service from start to finish.

My next meeting with DCH academy resulted in being introduced to Sales Rep. (Paul Papis) who provided with me professional courtesy and excellent service. This was the most pleasant car purchasing experience I have ever had, and would not hesitate recommending DCH Academy to my friends and family.

My wife and I had been looking for a vehicle for about a month. We narrowed our decision down between the Accord and the Altima and Andre made the decision for us from there. He was extremely knowlegable about the vehicle and even knew all the sales tricks/promotions that Nissan tried to get customers in the door which turned out to be not nearly as good as the advertised. It was a pleasure working with him and if we're in the market for a new car down the road I would not think twice about going back to DCH!

Joe Guzzo came recommended to me from a good friend. I called asking if there was stock for the vehicle I thought I wanted. Joe told me to come over whenever it was possible with my schedule. Joe did not disappoint when it came to his knowledge of the CR-V, his friendliness and the ability to put me at ease when trying to decide to give up my Lexus RX 300 with almost 200,000 miles to purchase a new Honda. I drove my RX for eleven years and it was as though I was losing a good friend. I have my new CR-V for just 24 hours and I have already driven it more than 100 miles. I love this car as much as my old one and I expect to have it for many years to come. Thanks to Joe, I felt very comfortable with my decision to change manufacturers and models. I highly recommend Joe to those who are on the fence about a new vehicle and even for those who know exactly what they want.

We traveled an hour to get to DCH Academy Honda, and would gladly do so again. When we first contacted Mark Kamatoy, via email, he was very friendly and upfront with us and provided us with all the information we wanted and needed. After we arrived at the dealership, the friendliness and excellent service continued. There was not hidden, or ballooned, fees and no aggressive up-sale. Bryan Hechler was our salesperson at the dealership, and he was a pleasure to work with. He answered all our questions and was very personable. We were able to obtain the Civic at the exact price and color that we told Mark and Bryan we wanted. Lily Li was our finance manager and gave us some pretty great Christmas presents, in terms of deals. There is no question we would use DCH Academy Honda again and would recommend it to anyone looking for a new vehicle.

After we arrived at the dealership, the friendliness and excellent service continued. There was not hidden, or ballooned, fees and no aggressive up-sale. Bryan Hechler was our salesperson at the dealership, and he was a pleasure to work with. He answered all our questions and was very personable. We were able to obtain the Civic at the exact price and color that we told Mark and Bryan we wanted. Lily Li was our finance manager and gave us some pretty great Christmas presents, in terms of deals. There is no question we would use DCH Academy Honda again and would recommend it to anyone looking for a new vehicle.

Another excellent experience at DCH with our salesman Robert Levine , we have been buying honda vehicles for 20 years and Robert is an excellent , honest salesperson that we always deal with. He knows the details of all the vehicles and always helps us make the right choice for our family. We refer our family and friends all the time. We just purchased a new civic this week , Robert took us out for test drives , showed all the options and we had the car ready that night! He took the time outside in the cold to show us how to work all the new features before we left with the car.The service department is excellent and trustworthy.I highly recommend this dealership .

Purchased a 2014 Pilot from Robert Levine. With the help of John Nguyen we were able to also work a trade-in into the mix. These two gentlemen made the entire process extremely pleasant, not a moment of stress. They are both very professional and knowlegable of all the products. I have and will continue to refer people to them.

Tim at DCH Honda Academy was great at answering all my questions and helping me find a car that not only fit my lifestyle, but also my budget. I am very please with the customer service he showed and how he took care of me. I was able to find a car the same day after searching for weeks at different dealers I found the best deal here. Thanks again Tim!

This was my third Honda purchase from DCH Academy Honda. I would not ever go anywhere else to buy a Honda. Not only is the delearship great, but you will not get a better deal anywhere in the area . I also have the pleasure of dealing with my wonderful salesman, Joseph Koedros. He is a true gentleman, and I truly enjoy dealing with him! He makes the whole process very smooth, start to finish! I will recommend Joe to all of my family and friends!

Joe Koedras is friendly and customer oriented. No high pressure negotiations, it was obvious right from the start he wanted to earn my business. When I picked up the car he explained every feature, in particular the electronic systems. This is the second vehicle I purchased from DCH. I would highly reccomend Joe and DCH to anyone.

I had an unfortunate and unique incident with my Toyota Camry that lead to a total loss. DCH Academy Honda was recommended to me by my dad so I researched online and found some interesting cars on their certified pre-owned list. I settled on a 2011 Honda Accord. I requested a quote online and received a response from David Mazurek. We talked briefly on the phone and then settled on a date and time for me to come in. When I met David at the dealership he was very cordial and sincere. He remembered our brief conversation and knew that I already had a couple of cars in mind. Even though he was busy with another customer, he took the time to help me and them at the same time, all the while I didn't feel rushed. We worked through the paperwork. David showed me the numbers and explained them thoroughly. He was a professional all the way and was very respectful of my needs and my time. I then met with Dimitri, the business manager, who was also very professional and helped me get through the additional paperwork. There was nothing negative about my experience with David or Dimitri. I commend them for their professionalism, respectful attitude and efficiency. I left with the car I wanted, the payment I wanted and the peace of mind that I could go back and talk to them if I had a problem. I highly recommend David and Dimitri at DCH Academy Honda if you want a hassle free, professional and positive experience.

Paul was simply amazing. The amount of knowledge of the car and all the benefits. He took time to show all the details. His personality is awesome. He was not pushy in any way and we felt very at ease working with Paul. we have been a Honda family for a long time and we will continue to be because of the professionalism caring people at Honda, like Paul. We went in and met Paul and in a couple of hours we were driving home with our new Honda, thanks to Paul. Excellant

Went to trade in my used convertible not thinking the dealership would work with me but I was wrong. Chris Mazzeo was extremely helpful with scenerio's we were offered and referred us to our sales consultant Joe Koedros who was very patient with our selection of the vehicle, test drive and ultimate closing of the deal. Never once did he pressure for the sale. Upon leaving, we met with Steve Chung in finance who got us out of the dealership in 15 minutes and once again didn't "up sell" Honda products and just wanted us to be satisfied with their dealership and service. This is our second vehicle with DCH and there will for sure be an third as well.

This is the 5th car I bought in 20 years, Otis gave me the best car buying experience ever. He listened and respected all my requests to find the perfect car for me. He moved everything things from the trade in car to the new Honda Accord. Otis not only knew the procedures, inventory, issues and solutions, he is patient, humble and smart. I met Otis at 2 PM and drove the new Accord home at 6 PM. What a pleasant experience to buy a new car in 4 hours, I will defiantly buy my next car from Otis.

I had an excellent experience working with DCH Academy Honda. I worked with GM Joe Scardigno in advance to review my options for purchasing or leasing a car for my mother, who had been used to driving a Lexus. We came to the showroom on black Friday to close the deal. Even though it was very busy, Joe made plenty of time for us. He also paired us with one of his sales consultants, Joe Guzzo, to work through the details and paperwork for leasing an Accord LX. All members of the sales and finance team were pleasant, patient and polite. Both Joe Scardigno and Joe Guzzo made everything seem easy and low-stress. And, my mother loves the car! I would highly recommend DCH Academy Honda.Erik Maran

I had a great experience in dealing with Tim this weekend. His professionalism was apparrent from the very beginning. He delivered as promised, from when I first made contact over the phone, to completion of the sale.Tim even went above and beyond, and drove close to 100 miles out of his way to deliver the vehicle to me(meeting me halfway on the parkway, as I was coming from the Atlantic City area). This allowed me to make my sons'ALLstar football game down in Absecon(I arrived in just in time for his name to be announced, and the opening kickoff...my son being the kicker. It was an onsides kick & we recovered to start the game-scored on that drive!). Anyway, his attention to customer care and personal service was much appreciated,especially in these days of auto phone responses, computers,etc. I should also mention Michael C as well. He offered a fair, no nonsesnse deal right from the beginning, and stuck with it. He is a man of his word, which is also rare these days. Thank you to Tim and Mike, and the rest of the team. It was certainly worth the ride from AC, and I will definetely reccommend you to friends! Oh yea....a great car too!

I was very pleased with my recent experience at Academy. I found the model and color that I wanted and was able to get a price online from Mariana Lobeto. I was satisfied with the price and arranged to purchase the car later that evening. My sales consultant, Khalil Quraishi, provided extremely courteous and attentive service both during the purchase process and afterwards as well. Before I drove home with my new vehicle, the sales manager checked with me to see that I was satisfied.

He was able to get me the car I wanted in the price range I needed. I never felt any pressure from Mr. Lisciandri.

We had heard great things about this dealership and especially about Essam Beshay. We got our second car from this dealership and during both the occasion we had great experience. Sam as people there call him was very friendly and easy going. During the test drive he showed us each and every feature of the vehicle. He spent good enough time with us to make sure that we were familiar with the new features since the 2013 Accord had lot of new features. Even though we didn't reach to any agreement during that visit we visited him again during Black Friday and he offered us even a better deal. Me an my wife were really happy with the ease the level of comfort and patience with which Sam worked with us. There was no pressure whatsoever by Sam. After we finalized everything and when we went to pick up the keys, Sam went with us all the documents , manual and made us explain as to what is what. He also walked out with us and showed us the features in car. Also I would like to mention about finance manager Stephen Chung who was a pleasure to work with. Very friendly and jovial person. I would highly recommend Essam Beshay at DCH. No wonder he is their top sales person and he will be always.

Another fantastic experience. We have bought over a dozen cars from DCH Academy Honda intheladt 2 decades, and have never been disappointed. This last experience was by far the best! John, Sam and Mark took great care of us, and even tough we were undecided on a Pilot or Odyssey at first, were very patient and understanding, even though they had a showroom full of people. It's that level of commitment to service by the employees that makes this dealership so outstanding. After we had decided on the Pilot, John and Sam were able to give us a great deal, and even work with us adding just the right accessories to compliment our family's lifestyle. Thank you again guys! I know I said it a few dozen times while I was there!

I had purchased new Hondas from this dealership in the past and was in the market to purchase a used auto for my daughter.Dave was very helpful with finding the right car (Honda, naturally) and made sure my daughter was comfortable driving it. There were some minor items that needed to be addressed and Dave was on top of it. He would call or text with updates and made sure that all issues were corrected. As far as pricing, Dave was very willing to negotiate to help close the deal. Thank you Dave and all of the great associates at DCH Academy Honda for your help with this sale!

Great experience from beginning (initial contact, getting information on vehicles, pricing and lease deals) to end (working with the sales team, test driving the car, to closing the deal).Highlights:- Internet sales team was responsive and provided and committed to all lease details of deal up front (before coming into dealership).- Joe Koedros was friendly, professional, and customer-focused throughout our time at the dealership. He brought us to the lot to review the vehicles in inventory, provided great information during our test drive, and made the entire deal process very easy, always in a professional and approachable manner.I have purchased and leased many cars and this was by far my best experience at a car dealership. Based on my experience, I would highly-recommend this Honda dealership.

I would highly recommend this representative based on his good customer service, people skills and product knowledge. Tim was also good with interacting with my 4 year old son, who spent a long Saturday day with me at dealership while waiting for the transaction to be concluded as well. It was a true pleasure working with Tim. Thanks!

Once again I want to thank DCH for making buying a car an enjoyable and pleasent experiance. This was the fourth car I've bought there, and each time was excellent. The staff were all friendly and helpful. This time my sales agent was Veronica Galluccio, she went above and beyond to find the vehicle that fit my needs and price. With the help of manager Rubin Arcilla, she was able to get everything I wanted and a payment plan I could feel comfortable with. She even got some touch up paint and fixed a scratch I made when I returned to pick up my plates. My wife was so pleased with the service, she wants me to go back and get her a new car too! Knowing how I've been treated by the DCH staff, I'm confident I'll find satisfaction again. Thanks again DCH, Lenny DeMarco

He took me out for a ride and continued to tell me about all the features. After going back into the showroom we discussed pricing and I purchased the car. He later sat with me in the car and explained all the features and how they worked. He gave me 100% of his time.

He showed me all the right pricing that fit my budget and then showed me everything I needed to know about my new 2014 Accord. I will tell everyone I know about Joe Koedros and I will definitely send my friends and family there for their next car. Don't waste your time with other dealers, this place is the real deal. Also very nice about the dealership is that they keep in touch with you long after you leave with the car, they treat you like family and really care about your needs. Do yourself a favor and go see Joe Koedros if you guys are looking for a new Honda, just an Amazing place and also an Amazing experience. Thank you Joe !!!!!!

I explain to Joe my situation and he understood. Joe was outstanding!! After the sales procedure he even accompanied me to my old car to help me move some things to the new car! Then he set up my phone with the blue tooth in my new car, showing me how to do everything the car was capable of. He went above and beyond by also setting up some speed dials for me within the car just to show me how the process was done.I will be back when my lease is up.Hopefully Joe will still be there to assit me in my next vehicle.ThanksLaura Haynes

Hello, I keep my cars for a least 10 years. The reason is because I hate buying new ones because of all the pain behind it. Then we worked with Jen C. and Otis V. What a change this was. From the picture on Otis' desk of a proud family man he carries this to his job. He showed a lot of pride for his job and represents Honda in a positive light. We did not see Jen C. but her skills with email and prompt responses is worthy. I'm honestly in shock how cool this place was. Otis was great. We can't say it any better than that. He offered upgrades for the car, some we declined. Otis did not try to force us to buy upgrades like they did at other Honda dealerships. If I owned a car dealership I would want Jen and Otis working there. What a great team you have at DCH. I talked to all my coworkers about the rock star service there is at DCH. Keep it going! Thanks Otis!

Sam "Essam Beshay" is an outstanding sales agenct. He was able to assist me in leasing a car over the telephone because we were unable to physically get to the dealer. We didn't have a car! He was able to assist me with a purchase and by the end of the day we had our new car driven to our front door. Sam is not a pushy salesman he listens to your wants and desires. He also helps you get what you not only want but also need. He is cooperative, friendly, confident in his ability and most importantly a good listener. He has a tenacious attitude and gets the job done. Best sales experience ever at DCH Academy Honda, Sam's the Man you want to see!

It is reassuring to know that there are still honest, reliable, and trustworthy businesses left in the world. I purchased a used Subaru from this dealership and the check engine light came on the day after I took the car home. When I called to report this, I expected to be met with resistance and was so pleasantly surprised at their response. They had the problem fixed and within 5 days and gave me a loaner car. They communicated with me every step of the way and were very responsible and efficient. I would recommend this dealership to everyone. Many thanks to David, Ruben and Glenn.

I first contacted the dealership by requesting a quote for a 2013 pilot via their website. Upon entering the dealership they honored that quote and didnt try to switch it up for something more expensive or say that vehical is no longer available, as some dealers do. He, Joseph, listened to what I was looking for and mentioned different options for my purchase. When I declined, he didnt try pushing them on me. When I returned with my wife to finalize the purchase he spoke to us BOTH and not just me. He worked with me on my trade and worked the numbers to my satisfaction. Actually paying less now than I was on my trade in of the lower model pilot. The vehical was preped on time as promised and in surperb condition. When leaving the Mgr came out to check if every thing went smoothly and thanked me for my purchase.

DCH Academy Honda located in Old Bridge, NJ has the best staff. They are the most friendliest people that you can find in a dealership. I've had my shares on visiting other dealership in which I had a very tough time purchasing a car whether its a new/used car. As a first time buyer, my agent Sanjay Chahhad and their financier Dmitry Rybakov made sure that I will be taken care of. They chose the BEST Used car for me that personally fits me and my budget. Without the team up of these two (Sanjay and Dmitry) I don't think I would have a much better and smoother transaction. They really did their best to help me find a great car. People like them really made me decide to come back again for a next purchase in the future. I highly recommend dealing with them. You will never look for another dealership ever again! Business is business but having an extra touch of good and warm personality by their staff made this buying experience for me a lot more better. Thanks Dch Academy Honda. You guys have a wonderful staff and keep up the good work!

Had an amazing experience at this dealership. Akrim was fantastic at finding the right car for me. He really cared about what I liked and what I needed in a car. I highly recommend buying a car here. I also was taken care of by John who also made sure I left with a smile on my face. Overall amazing experience and will definitely be a coming back.

I have bought cars before from other dealerships and have never experienced such a friendly salesperson . Andre was great and and so was everyone we encountered at the dealership. Andre really took the time I work with us and even stayed late with us making a decision on a car. It was unexpected to see a sales person work so hard and be so courteous with helping us out. Andre was able to get us out of a car and into a new car that we love. It was really a great experience. It didn't even feel like we were buying a car. Andre listened to what we wanted and needed and gave us that.

Erich Tam and the Academy Team provided excellent professional service and it was a pleasure doing business with them. It was a hassle free transaction from the moment I walked in the door to the moment i drove out in my new Honda Accord. This was my first experience with this Dealership and I will definitlely use them again.

I came in with my 17 yr old daughter who needed safe and dependable used car and only had a limited amount of money to spend. Joe Lisciandri greeted us immediately and was extremely helpful. Although, there was nothing on the lot in her price range, he worked with me to make the car affordable for her and we were able to purchase a 2007 Saturn Ion in her price range that she just loves! Joe was extremely caring, honest and willing to work with me and our financial limitations. He explained every detail to my daughter and made sure she was comfortable driving the car and that she understood all the workings of the vehicle. He also had Glen, the mechanic, come out and speak with us to tell us about the repairs he made to the car. Glen explained everything to us and even offered to put the car up on the lift so I could have a look underneath. Once we made our selection, the paperwork and legalities moved along very quickly and we were out of there in no time. No long drawn out, all day affair. Our experience with Joe and Academy Honda was a very pleasant one and I will recommend both to anyone looking for a new or used car. I will also use the service department for future service needs after meeting with Glen.

Very satisfied with my purchase of the Pilot Touring White pearl with Erich Tam as salesman. He's been instrumental with my decision to come back and buy again in this dealership. He worked really very hard to get my vehicle to the point he drove 140 miles with hours of traffic to another dealership in Long Island just to get my car I wanted since the model and color I liked is out of stock especially this time of season and clearance. No pressure buying and no gimmicks. Just straight forward honest deal. In fact they beat my personal price quote. Got an excellent deal and superb experience overall.

We are a family of Toyota owners, when our youngest needed a car, we of course looked for a Toyota first. When we couldn't find one on the market, we started looking at Honda's. We found the used Accord on the internet. I contacted David Mazurek thru the web site, and the process of buying this car was smooth from start to end. We look forward to our youngest driver having many good years driving her Accord. We will return to this dealership in the future for our used car needs.

Joe and the dealership were wonderful. They treated my dad and I with respect and were extremely friendly. They listened to our requests and made the car buying experience a pleasant one. My dad loves his new Civic. When my lease is up, I will be back to trade it in for a new lease and look forward to working with Joe and the dealership again.

In my life, I have a lot of bad experience with the car dealers, either I was being push or misleading and I paid more than what I should paid. So I really hated to go to the car dealer. My very good friend link me up to DCH Academy Honda. It is 75 miles away from my home. I met with one of the sale man " Andy Lau. He is the best sale man. The whole process is smooth and fast. He is very knowledgeable, friendly and honest. He spend a lot of time to walk my through all the feature of the car even it was already late at night. It totally changed my image about car dealer. He washed the car and get most of the things ready before I arrival and most impress me was he did follow up with me after a few days. I can't thanks enough for his wonderful service. It is worthy to drive 75 miles from New York upstate to Old Bridge DCH Academy Honda NJ.I love it. A+++++++ service. Will recommend all my friends to buy cars there.

my overall experience was good. several members of the sales team & staff were very helpful, and made obvious effort to ease the entire transaction. financial director,TIAN REID was especially helpful & involved. my only real issue was with the fact that I had to ask several times for the costco price list before it was provided to me. i would still recomend DCH Academy to my friends neighbors & family.

I gave a great review for this dealership because it was a very enjoyable experience. I went in knowing I needed a new car and wanted to lease it so I told Paul (Papis) exactly what I was looking for and he helped find me the perfect fit. I ended up with the Accord Sport and I absolutely love it. The whole process was easy and done in a timely manner. Paul was very helpful, nice and made sure I left happy.After the sale, I sat with Stephen Chung to finalize paperwork. This guy might be one of the nicest in the industry. He made me feel very comfortable with my decisions and was able to explain everything thoroughly. He really made the experience worhwhile, and it was a great way to end my visit before I drove away in my new car.

My car was totaled in an accident and I was suddenly forced to buy a new car. Since I previously owned a Honda from another DCH dealership and loved the car, I decided to visit Academy Honda. Paul Papis was very friendly and helpful throughout the entire process. He took the time to explain the features of the 2014 Accord in detail before taking the car out on a test drive. He was also very patient throughout the entire process and never pushed me into making a decision. I ended up taking two test drives and also had follow-up questions that he answered promptly via email. I appreciated his patience as I was dealing with an insurance claim and was also looking at other cars. This, in my opinion, is what sets Paul & Academy Honda apart from some of the other dealers in my book. Everything is straight forward and there's no pressure to buy a car. I ended up choosing the 2014 Accord. Once the car was ready, Paul took the time to walk through the various features of the car and even synced the car to my phone. I will be recommending Paul & Academy Honda to anyone I know that's in the market for a new car.

First and foremost, DCH Academy Honda of Old Bridge, was recommended to me based on others already good experience and reputation and they did a terrific job securing that impression with me during my car buying experience with them! I worked with Jorge Ramos primarily and I'm very glad I did! Like a dog on a bone, he didn't let up his effort till he found the deal that worked for me. After he listened carefully to understand what my personal parameters were and needed to be he worked his tail off to search their selection to come up with a few very good options (none of which were something I didn't ask for, you know how some dealers bring you what they want to sell not what you ask to buy) and in the end I had a better deal (interest rate, terms, warranty) on a better vehicle then I could have hoped for!I went in needing at least one good solid roomy vehicle to replace our sadly out grown & undersized family vehicle. Without the greatest trad-in , no money down and Jorge hits a home run. (I watched Red Sox close out Tigers on their big screen tv while waiting for paperwork) Jorge also did a great job for me on a vehicle for myself too! I came away with a solid trust in him so after the family need was met, just for laughs with no high hopes, I asked him to see what he could do for me. And a day later he did it again! Solid car, solid deal and solid warranty...Triple Play!As impressive as Jorge Ramos was in his effort, he was equally Professional, friendly and considerate of my circumstances. He never once said anything about "what he needed from the deal" it was always what he was trying to keep in the deal for me.Lastly, I need to also say a sincere Thank You to all the DCH Team that helped in both large and small ways to support Jorge in getting my car deals done. Big Thanks go to Veronica Galluccio & Ivon Lopez who couldn't have been more pleasant and helpful with test drives, paperwork and follow-up calls tying-up a few loose ends. Additionally Thanks to Rueben Arcila & Michael Clites aiding with trade-in appraisal details and vehicle detailing issues added to the overall great experience of car buying at DCH Academy Honda. I want my new purchases to last a long time, but once they need to be replaced, I'm calling on Jorge, Veronica, Ivon and company again.

I recently purchased a Honda Accord. My salesman at Academy Honda was Robert Levine. He found the car with the equipment that I required and helped me make the deal to purchase it. He was extremely patient in teaching me about the electronic aspects of the car. Robert made me feel welcome to return whenever I need help. I would recommend Robert to anyone interested in a new car.

We have always driven Fords and truly wanted to drive a Honda. In 2010, we had researched five different Honda locations in the Middlesex & Monmouth areas. We chose the Old Bridge group (732-721-3333) because they were absolutely excellent and superior compared to the other dealers!! All of the employees are professional, knowledgeable, personable, so accommodating to the customer's vehicle needs and all at the customer's convenience. They truly give and go out of their way over 110 percent. That's why we are third time repeat customers (2011 Accord, 2013 Civic, 2014 Accord - leases)!! So if you truly are seeking a great Honda vehicle,

DCH Academy Honda is a trusted dealership. I live in Utah and CRVs are hard to find at a reasonable price. I found a Certified CRV at DCH Academy Honda. When I called, the salesperson, David, was very knowledgeable about selling out of state and was even able to recommend a shipping company. I decided to drive the car back and David even met me at the airport with the car. Upon returning to Utah, I noticed a minor issue with an air vent. I called David and DCH Academy Honda was very willing to work with me and fixed the issue.

We have always driven Fords and truly wanted to drive a Honda. It is a great vehicle and we are third time repeat customers (2011 ACCORD, 2013 CIVIC, 2014 ACCORD LEASES) at the Old Bridge group!!. In 2010, we had researched finding a Honda Dealer (visited 5 Dealers in Middlesex & Monmouth Cty., NJ). The Old Bridge group (732-721-3333) went out of their way to earn our business!! That's why we keep on going back!!We are so happy with our Honda vehicles. All of the employees there (Old Bridge group) are professional, knowledgeable, personable, so accommodating and just great team players that work together to give the customer a "GREAT HONDA EXPERIENCE"!! They go out of their way and give the customer over 110 percent of themselves to make sure that the customer is very satisfied. We have witnessed this first hand and we just cannot say enough great things about them!!So, the bottom line is, "IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR A GREAT CAR (HONDA), AS WELL AS A GREAT DEALER, LOOK NO FURTHER THAN THE ACH ACADEMY HONDA OF OLD BRIDGE (732-721-3333) AND YOU WILL BE A SATISFIED CUSTOMER!!!!"Darlene & Brian BeanVERY VERY SATISFIED CUSTOMERS!!!!

I bought a used Accord last summer that I found on the internet. Dave, the Internet Manager, was wonderful with his quick email responses to all of my questions about the car. He also made the buying process a smooth one and was able to give me a break on the price. However, our experience with Dimitri,the financial manager, was less satisfactory. He seemed impatient when something didn't make sense to me and pushy with the car packages. Perhaps it was because it was Saturday and he was so busy. Not a big deal, but also the car lot also seemed cramped for such a busy dealership. There was hardly room to get around.

I worked with Joseph Koedros to lease my new 2013 Honda Civic and from the moment I walked through the door Joe was there to make me feel at ease. He shook my hand and told me he would provide me with great service and remain in my budget, and he did. He never pressured me to look at something I did not want, but instead listened to what I wanted and made sure I got exactly that, within my budget. He treated my mother and I like we would have treated someone. My mother is in sales for an extreme luxury brand and she said the way Joe dealt with us was better than most within her industry. I wish I needed more Hondas just so I could deal with Joe more often! After the sales procedure he even accompanied me to my old car to help me move some things to the new car! Then he set up my phone with the blue tooth in my new car, showing me how to do everything the car was capable of. He went above and beyond by also setting up some speed dials for me within the car just to show me how the process was done. Joe was completely honest with us the entire time we were with him and when it comes time for my sister to upgrade her Honda lease I will make sure that she has Joe help her as well. I really cannot recommend him highly enough to others but I try my best! DCH Academy Honda is about an hour from my house and I made the long drive not knowing who would help me, now that I know how Joe treated me I would have driven much longer for service like that, he was simply incredible!

Ryan Hoey provided me with an A+++ customer service. His friendliness and overall demeanor made speaking with him very easy-going. He was able to answer my questions quickly and with the necesary information I needed to make my decisions without ado. To me that is a testament of how knowledgeable he is of the company's products and services. We were able to complete the transaction hassle-free and in a short period of time.Tian Reid discussed the financials with me. He was clear and concise when going thru the paperwork with me. He was able to quickly answer my questions. As such, we were able to finish our meeting in a timely fashion.I have always thought highly of the DCH Academy Honda Team. I dealt mainly with the Parts/Services Department prior to my recent leasing transaction and have received great customer service from that department. So I was not surprised to find out that the Sales Team was as wonderful as the Parts/Services Team.

Sam is a stand-up guy and made the car buying experience very good. In my past experience, other dealer were high-pressure. This was not the case and if you decline something, they move on nicely. I would certainly recommend checking out DCH Honda and while you're there, try to speak to Sam,

I have been a completely satisfied customer for over 10 years and each time I return, the experience just gets better and better, particularly because of Mr. Robert Levine who has alwasy been patient, extremely knowledgeable and fair during the process of acquiring a new car, as well as following up afterwards. All of the staff at DCH Academy are pleasant and very helpful; and the Honda vehicle is superb. I love my new Honda Accord EXL which is so luxurious and high tech. I feel completely happy and safe in this new model...they just keep getting better and better!

The reason I gave such high marks to Academy Honda is due to the fact that they really appear to want to sell cars and not gimmicks. I visited four Honda dealerships in the area and was up front with all as to my intentions to buy a car within a week for my daughter. I told each one that I wanted their best price and would not be coming back if another dealer came in lower. Ryan Hoey came in with an excellent deal right out of the chute which beat other dealers by almost $1,400. When I returned a week later to close on the deal, Ryan honored his orginal price and didn't try to play any games to jack up the orginal price! It was a pleasure buying a car from Academy Honda and best of all my daughter is very happy with her new car. I would recommed that anyone looking for a Honda stop here first because they blow the rest of the dealerships in New Jersey away.

From the minute we walked into the dealership it was a great experience. Tim greeted us in a very friendly manner. And that friendliness continued right until we picked up the car. he was very easy to talk to and informative about the cars we were interested in. He made buying a car easy and painless. He genuinely cared about our safety in the car. He was also very easy to get in contact with. I would definitely buy another car from DCH and from Tim. This is actually our 3rd car bought from DCH. Thanks Tim and DCH!!

Joseph Guzzo is an asset to DCH. He is knowledgeable and helps you find the vehicle that will fit your needs and pocketbook. He's all knowledge and substance without the aggressive sales approach. He knows the products he sells well and can help you find the best fit. I am not someone who really likes buying cars generally but Joe made this a great experience. I would go back for sure!

HANDS DOWN..DCH Academy Honda provided the best new car buying experience we ever had. The attention and professionalism we received from our sales consultant, Paul Papis was remarkable and greatly appreciated based on our very busy schedules. We needed to return our 2011 Odyssey coming off lease and also buy a car, which can be very time consuming. Paul made sure the process went smoothly and provided the time we needed to make a selection and understand the deal.We previously purchased Hondas from Paul at another dealership that was actually closer to our home. Distance is irrelevant when it comes to working with someone you trust and expertly knows his products. Paul and the dealership were respectful of our time and didnt do any hard sell tactics that we had previously been exposed to. Add-on options and additional services were presented while finalizing the deal without pressure which was very helpful.we actually purchased the Xzilon Green protection and love it. We also really appreciated a managers attention at the very end of the process assuring that we were completely satisfied before we drove away.very classy DCH HondaThank You!!! We will definitely return to this dealership for our future automobile and service needs. We will also recommend this dealership to others based on our excellent all around experience.

My car unexpectedly died and I was suddenly forced to buy a new car. Paul Papis was very patient and helpful with the couple of test drives I did in various cars. I ended up choosing the 2014 Accord and Sales Manager Tian Reid was extremely professional and efficient in setting up the right package of products that fit my needs with the car. Especially since I was working through an insurance claim process at the same time as trying to purchase the new car, I was most times unable to make any commitments regarding the car. Which, I can imagine, can be very annoying to salespeople. However, Paul never let anything dampened his good spirits in all the communication with us and did everything he could to work around the restrictions we had. An excellent car buying experience and definitely a dealer that I will recommend to whomever is looking to buy a good car in a pleasant and professional environment.

I have been dealing with Paul Papis for a number of years and have purchased a number of vehicles from him. Paul has always gone the extra mile to obtain the best deal possible for me. He has also been very helpful in helping me and my family to determine which vehicles would be best suited for different members of my family. Paul has always been generous with the time he spends with me before, during, and after the sale is completed. His follow up is exemplary. DCH Honda is very fortunate to have Paul as a member of their sales team representing DCH and the Honda brand. I would recommend Paul and DCH Honda to any of my friends.

I came to this dealership because I wanted to deal with Paul Papis again. He leased me my previous car and since I was ready to lease again I wanted to reach out to him. Paul is wonderful to work with. He is honest and straightforward and does not try to give you a run around like some other salespeople. I told him my situation and he was able to put together a deal that was just perfect for me. I would gladly recommend Paul to anyone I may know who is interested in a Honda. I also found the whole experience at the dealership very pleasant as everyone was very friendly, efficient and helpful. I would happily go back there again.

I will definitely recommend my friends to go there.

Joe Guzzo is by far the most honest salesman I have met. Extremely helpful and friendly. He sat down and took the time to explain all the aspects of the lease, all the possible payment plans, pros of cons of each, and what would work the best for me. He even helped a relative of mine with her current lease situation. Joe definitely went the extra distance, and it was totally worth the trip over the bridge to meet him.

This was by far the best experience I have had in car buying! I would highly recommend not only this dealership, but Joe especially. I truly felt that Joe 'helped me get into a new car'. . . . and not so much 'sell a car.' There's a big difference. I hope to refer a friend or two because it's definitely worth the trip based on my experience. I will be returning to Joe in the near future for my next trade-in.

On July 11 of 2013, I went back to the dealership to return a Honda Civic which I have just bought on June 20, because I was not satisfied with the features and the color. With only 1297 miles on it, I was forced to pay another $2,000. It then took me more than Eight Hours to have finally be able to drive out with the new vehicle. I drove out another Honda Civic with a Sun roof, I prefer a one with leather seat but they had none available.I had choice of simply walking away and just stick with old vehicle, because of the horrible waiting time, and both I and my fiancee whom has just arrived from Canada was exhausted. I didnt know what was the reasons for the awful delay, but I do notice the salesman was busy another client while we were waiting at the waiting area. We were stuck and as much as we did not wanted to continue on, we had a choice but we had no options.A note on the deal I had, I had to pay a destination and handling fee of $790, and a document fee of $359, which they say they re non-negotiable. If you can talk them down, please let me know, so I can go back to them and ask for a partial refund. If you think these charges are outrages, then stay away from them, since I have already paid my tuition.They also have charged me $104.50 of registration fee. I wonder, if I do the registration myself is only $59, why they have charged me extras?I had am issue with Lily the financial manager the first time, however she turned out to be a great lady and offered me great discounts on my first purchase. She called me back shortly after the first time after I have purchased the car for lower interest rate.Jorge, the other financial officer whom I unfortunately were assigned for the second visit, on the other hand, has talked me into purchasing the GAP insurance for $750, financed. The choices is definitely yours, I am not saying it was not a good insurance, but I just dont want to pay it no matter what. What it does is if you totaled your car, since you have a deductible, and the insurance's payment may not be able to cover the financed total amount, then the GAP would cover the "GAP" of the money required. Also at the second time,he said the lower interest rate was a promotional item and had refused to have offered to me.All I did was trade-in in a car after another, why the interest rate could not be carried over, and I have already paid $2,000 for the difference?Ottis, has talked me into purchased the ETCH service, which I did not had the first time. All the windows of their cars are etched, he said. It means these windows has invisible serial numbers and if the car would be stolen, the serial numbers would be registered and this program would help me pay for the lost car and traced it back with this ECTH. I was under the impression that this ETCH was a MUST HAVE if I would get me finance approved. This service is $299, financed. Trust me, this additional item IS NOT REQUIRED to purchase any vehicle!On September 18, I went to get my first oil change and safety check, I was under the impression that first two oil changes were supposed to be free, and I was been told that it was not true and I had to pay about $50 with a coupon.SInce I was there I went and tried to cancel both GAP and the ETCH. Jorge was at another building selling used cars, and instead if providing me customer service where I first signed my contract with him, I had to walk across the big parking lot and see him at the other office, however when you were purchasing the car, they always come to you!Of course when on the phone earlier and in person, they were hesitated and somewhat rude when I mentioned that I do not wish to carry on the GAP and the ETCH.While the GAP was canceled, all of them told me the ETCH is not able to be canceled. However, on the contract clearly stated that you can cancel it in 30 days for full refund. I showed that to Jorge and he cancel it out for me without saying another word.I didnt want to write all this, and would just let it go, however my experiences at the dealer ship and the ways they acted toward me was not acceptable and I have decided to write down my true experiences.Of course everyone's experience is unique, and I am sure someone actually are satisfied with everything.I am writing my own experiences and share with you, and it would be at your own judgement to take a trip down there or not.

I highly recommend this dealer. Joe K helped me out, and he was absolutely wonderful. I went to a different Honda dealer prior to this one, and Joe made the whole experience better. He was very passionate about the product and pointed out so many great things about the car that the other dealer failed to mention. If you go here, do yourself a favor and try to get Joe K because he works with you, and genuinely enthusiastic about the cars and helping you. I'm not saying that other sales consultants here aren't as good, but Joe K was great.

I just had the best experience dealing with both Jennifer and Otis at DCH Academy Honda. I would highly recommend anyone looking for a Honda to first contact either of them at DCH if you are looking for a new Honda. Their treatment is very professional and friendly. No high pressure sales tactics here, just good, friendly and honest business. They take the time to explain everything you need to feel comfortable with your purchase. I cannot say enough, other than this was the best car buying experience that I have ever had.ThanksMike

I came into the dealership looking to trade in my financed car for a new car lease. I wanted to downgrade to a smaller truck like the Pilot. Since we previously had purchased an Accord as a second car for the family and had such wonderful service, we decided to come back to DCH. Robert Levine took us right away and worked out such a great deal that we signed that day! He went through every feature on the car - I especially love the rear view camera, the Bluetooth for my cell phone, and I can even listen to Pandora on the radio with my Android phone. The car runs beautifully and it is so roomy - even has the third row. He then followed up with me the following day to see if I was happy and if I had any questions. The service that you receive at this dealership is top notch and they really treat their customers well. I would recommend to anyone looking for a new car.

I've been in the market for a car for myself for a few months now. I did my research on line and would often check out their used car lot after business hours. When we decided to go last night for the purchase, we were approached by Tim Crowley. Right away he was very helpful . We took 2 cars out for a test drive; and I appreciated his knowledge of both cars (Civic & Accord). Once I decided on the car that I wanted to purchase, he was very thorough in explaining the paperwork and the steps we needed to take to complete the purchase. Overall it was a great experience as it's been a long time since I made a car purchase (11 years).The staff was also very friendly. I would definitely recommend this car dealer to anyone that is in the market for a used or a new car.Thank you!! P.S. My son will be driving within a year, and I will definitely go back to purchase a used car for him

One of the best sales person to work with, Paul made the entire process comfortable, he was crisp and clear in his conversation and made sure he honored his commitment. Happen to purchase my vehicle on his off day, but he made efforts to be there on time and remained till night evening to get the vehicle out of dealership. Really appreciate his efforts and would recommend him for anyone looking for new purchase.

I recommend this dealership to anyone that wants to buy a new car. I had the best experience buying my first car thanks to the greatest sales consultant Paul Papis. Paul worked with me and got me the best deal. I am so happy with my new 2013 Accord Sport. Thanks Paul once again for all your help you are the BEST!!!!!!

My Wife and I purchased a Honda Odyssey thru Tim Crowley,The way we were treated and Tim's Knowledge of the process made us feel at ease! The Odyssey was all that he said it was,we are very satisfied with our purchase.My purchase of the Pilot hinged on Tim's honesty and integrity(Rare these Days)and we will continue our relationship with Academy Honda Of Oldbridge because of these reasons.

This was my first time leasing a car and I couldn't have had a better salesman than Joe Guzzo. He took a lot of time explaining how leasing works, what I was responsible for and what Honda covered. My trade-in was a 13 year old Oldsmobile so you can imagine the difference in the technology. It was a little scary, but Joe made sure I felt comfortable behind the wheel before I even got on the road for a test drive. He also was very patient explaining all the bells and whistles, most of which I was not familiar with, making them less complicated to understand and operate than it seemed at first.I drove the car home with a lot more confidence than I thought possible! My insurance company told me that he faxed them the required paperwork immediately - they said that not all salesmen are so accommodating - they expect the client to take care of the paperwork. His attitude was pleasant, friendly and reassuring - as a female "senior citizen", I appreciate this. I know I can call him with questions at any time and get the answers I need. All around, this was a surprisingly positive experience and I plan to be back in three years for another lease. I look forward Joe Guzzo signing me up again!

From the minute we walked in the door, we were greeted with a smile. Conversation was pleasant, showroom was clean, Joe Gusso our salesperson was extremely knowledgable about the Honda we were interested in leasing and the return process for our 2011 Honda. Made the deal and one week later we were there to finish the paperwork which had been pretty much completed by Joe by the time we got there. Had to sign some papers, write a check, go over the booklets (warranty, tire, service, etc) and we were done. Vehicle had been cleaned up while we were taking care of the paperwork, and we went outside to review the vehicle, got my bluetooth set up for me, and away we drove. Very professional, friendly staff. This is my second vehicle from DCH Academy Honda and I am sure in 3 years will be back there again.

Hi I have bought a Honda CRV 2010 from DCH academy this year. After 8 months I gave it to a well known Honda service Center for my 2nd Service. During the service, I told them that I felt a Shaking when I drive over 55 mph. After the check, they replied saying FUSION TIRES ON VECHICLE NO SOLD by HONDA. And they didnt fix the problem completely But My question is Why DCH Academy installed these Tires in a Honda Certified car, if it is not SOLD BY HONDA? Moreover I didnt drive much as well. Entire 8 Months I have driven only 6500 miles which is normal I believe

I HAD A GREAT BUYING EXPERIENCE AT DCH ACADEMY HONDA. MY SALESMAN, JOSEPH LISCIANDRI, WAS VERY PROFESSIONAL. HE LISTENED TO EXACTLY WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR. HE WAS VERY KNOWLEDGABLE ABOUT THE VEHICLE AND THE FINANCING PROCESS. MY WIFE AND I FELT VERY COMFORTABLE WORKING WITH JOE. MY VEHICLE WAS DELIVERED RIGHT ON TIME. THE ONE THING THAT STANDS OUT FOR ME IS DURING MY TEST DRIVE, I HAD NOTED THAT THE #'S ON THE ODOMETER WERE NOT VERY CLEAR. SOMETHING VERY SMALL.......BUT ON DELIVERY THAT ITEM WAS CORRECTED. JOE KNOWS HOW TO LISTEN AND DELIVER!! I WILL DEFINATELY REFER ANYONE LOOKING FOR A VEHICLE TO CALL JOE. THANKS AGAIN JOE.

I knew from the moment I walked into this dealership that I was at the right place. I had wasted the whole day shopping around at other dealerships and all I experienced was pressure, pressure, pressure and it was very frustrating. The salesman who greeted us at the door , Joseph Koedros , was very friendly from the start and very knowledgeable about Honda. He answered all of our questions ( and there were a lot) very thoroughly and convinced us that Academy is the place to buy. I love my new Honda and will make sure I tell all my friends and relatives the experience I had here so they can have the same one with Joe. The whole process took about an hour and a half and they took care of it all from start to finish. Don't waste your time with other amateur dealers in the area, do yourself a favor and come see Joe at Academy, they are definitely the pro's in this business. I WILL be back to see Joe Koedros next time we need a new Honda. Thank you Joe and thank you Academy Honda !!!!!

This is my second purchase during the year-end lease deals from DCH Academy Honda. They always give away hamburgers, hot dogs, water and sodas, as much as you want and they never run out, except for the cars! I bought the Civic lx sedan in 2010 and again this year 2013 but someone beat me to the color I wanted on the lot. Not to worry, the location to the port terminal allowed them to get my color delivered to the showroom in 7 days. The dealer is operated with smooth surveilance fashion so you won't be approached by every salesman like zombies in a movie. Erich T. helped me the first time and I asked for him again. He is tireless in his efforts to answer every question. He has many awards for sales that compliments his thorough Honda knowledge and the sales process.The office is always fresh and very clean. No rundown floors or tired walls. The restrooms are spacious with modern appliances and it always looks like it was just cleaned. My history of service was a main reason though, that I came back. I get email coupons for oil and wiper replacements frequently so half the service visits end up being discounted. I recommend to make an appointment though or you can spend a couple hours waitng but that's also not bad, because they have complimentary coffee, tea and water that you self serve. Watch TV on super clean soft lounge chairs and buy a snack or bottle soda if you wish. They have it all.5 starsMike1962

We are so pleased with our experience at DCH Academy Honda. It was our first time buying a new car and we came to DCH Honda following a quote from TrueCar.com. Joseph was friendly, welcoming, and accommodating. When we had a concern about getting to the dealership on a later date he even offered to pick us up from the local train station. Joseph helped us find the car we were looking for and we are so happy with our purchase!

I am fortunate enough to say that this was my SECOND experience dealing with Paul Rittberg. I actually made sure that he would be available that day. Having been in the stressful situation of my husband's car breaking down, I immediately thought of DCH Academy Honda and Paul. It was Labor Day. I wasn't sure if Paul would be there. A WONDERFUL employee named Jennifer chatted with me online and said we could have the car towed directly to the dealership and to keep her posted so that Paul would be available to meet with.Paul's genuine nature and humor totally transformed this day for us. Sound too good to be true????? Even before we arrived, I knew that he would. Within moments of us sitting down with Paul, the pressure of the situation dissipated. Thank you, Paul, for yet again helping us and for never rushing us. We appreciate all that you do.

Buying a car isn't a simple process when you're constantly looking for great deals. I just recently graduated college and was looking into buying a car, either new or used. I did have my eyes set on a specific car which is the Honda Accord Coupe Ex-L. Furthermore, I've been looking around consistently for the last 6 months for a good deal which met my financial standards. I came across DCH Academy Honda through online and I immediately had my eyes set on this beautiful 2009 Honda Accord Coupe Ex-L model. So without a second thought, I booked an appointment with Tim Crowley, a used cars salesman. Let me begin by telling you, this gentlemen could not have given me any better hospitality from the beginning to the end. As soon as I walked in, he greeted me open handedly and was ready to make me a happy customer. He clicked very well with us from the start and did not hesitate to hear our end when discussing about the car. He did everything he could in his power to meet at a VERY reasonable price. He knew without a doubt, he wasn't going to let me walk out the dealership without a smile on my face. I am now a proud owner of a beautiful car. Ultimately, Tim is the reason I walked out the dealership with my first big purchase after graduating college and I could not be any more grateful. DCH Academy still calls me randomly just to check up on how the car is running. Now THAT'S good business. DCH Academy knows the deal, have the right crew, and will make you one happy customer!

Paul was unbelievable in getting us the exact car we wanted. He was very attentive and answered every question we had in detail, showing extreme patience throughout the entire process. He made sure we got the car we wanted at a rate that we can afford. Paul worked with us for hours, even staying past business hours to make sure that we were satisfied with our new car, had all of our questions answered and got everything we wanted. I highly recommend DCH Academy Honda, and especially recommend Paul based on our great experience.

I went to the dealership to trade in my 2011 Honda Civic I leased from a different dealer. I was wayyyyy over mileage and while other dealers basically said they couldn't help me, DCH in Old Bridge stepped up to the plate. The deal I got was right around what I expected to pay for the new lease and there was not very much back and forth and wasting time. A family member recommended the dealership to me and got me in touch with Eileen Conlon. She was very pleasant and definitely wanted me to feel comfortable with prices before we proceeded any further. Once we agreed on price, I saw the finance manager Lily. Again, another pleasant experience. They both did a great job not pressuring me into anything while informing me of what options were available. That is something that I cannot say that I experienced at other dealers. I drove past about 5-6 Honda dealers on my way to DCH and although there were closer dealers I would definitely go back and get another car from DCH when this lease is up. Top notch customer service.

I went into DCH Honda looking to lease a new car and my experience was very pleasant. My salesperson was Ryan Hoey and he answered all my questions, no matter how senseless. I went in a couple different times because I was researching my best option at different dealerships and realized my best option was at DCH. The customer service was excellent, buying process was quick, and the facilities were clean and very accessible.

This is one of my most pleasant experience of my new car purchase. On Labor Day, I purchased a new 2013 Honda CR-V with the right exterior and interior color I am looking for. I've done at least 6 weeks of research from edmunds.com and cars.com for features, prices, dealers, etc. before I decided to pay a visit to DCH Academy Honda. The sales representative, Erich Tam, was very friendly and knowledgeable. He did not push me into buying anything but begin with listening to my need in the next several years and answered each of my questions in great detail. He made me feel like talking to a friend. The loan officer, Lilly Li was also very friendly and helpful. Though this is 2013 model, the car was just shipped to the dealer on August 16. The 2014 model virtually is not changed from 2013 model. So, effectively, I was like buying a 2014 car, not a 2013 car stayed in dealers lot for months. I've kept all of my cars for more than 10 years, so, I really do not care to buy a previous year mode as long as I can find an attractive price. The dealer really gave me a very attractive price that is hard to find and I can even negotiate with them before closing the deal.I strongly recommend this dealership.

We came to Academy thru the Consumer Reports Build-and-Buy program. We experienced prompt service thru email and telephone and scheduled an appointment at a convenient time. At the dealership, our salesperson was friendly and knowledgeable. As we had agreed to price before we even came onsite, the whole buying experience was virtually stress-free.

Rob Levine, in particular, has been a pleasure to work with as he has demonstrated the utmost profesionalism, consern about our needs, and a desire to help us make the right choice. Compared to other dealerships and sales staff, I truely beleive that the poeople at DCH Academy Honda place a high value on developing relationships and making the car buying experience pleasurable. Honesty and integrity best describe DCH and Rob Levine. I have recommended this dealership - and Rob - in the past, asn I will continue t do so in the future.

Robert Levine and Mark Kamatoy provided me with top-notch, excellent and courteous customer service. I have done my research beforehand, and have received quotes from other dealers, and thus was very familiar with the Pilot that I was buying. Robert and Mark were upfront, transparent and very helpful from the very beginning, and both did not waste my time with the usual selling pressure, sometimes not so ethical techniques that car salespeople are at times associated with. Refreshingly they were very professional, and they were keen to do business with us.. and more importantly listened to my needs and addressed whatever concerns I had. Robert was extremely generous of his time in making sure that we understood all the nice features of the new Pilot. And Mark helped us get the best price we can get!Overall, my wife and I had a great experience. Which is why we keep on coming back to DCH Academy Honda and have purchased or leased almost all our Honda vehicles from this dealership over the past many years!

I have been working with Eric Tam for the last 7 cars that I have either leased or purchased. I am so happy with him, that I wouldn't think of using someone else. I love Honda's and since I have never had a problem with one, I keep buying another. As they say: if it's not broke, don't fix it. I just picked up my new CRV Monday night. Eric is very patient and answered all questions as well as assisting in all the new features. I now have a back up camera on this car and I love it. No more guessing whether you are too close while backing up. The room inside is amazing. The service department is also amazing and very accomidating. The space is always clean and you can watch TV or use your computer with a cup of coffee.I would strongly recommend DCH Acadamy Honda to everyone.Colleen KOld Bridge NJ

We were looking around for new cars and had visited several dealerships, until we decided to try DCH at old bridge, though its a little far from where we stay, but I would say it was worth the visit. For the first time we felt that someone was actually interested in giving us all the perspectives and not just selling the car or pushing for a deal.I would say that Eileen Conlon really took the effort of explaining various features of the car and especially after using another brand I was a bit skeptical about Honda, but Eileen really explained everything well until the sports variant caught our eye. We reallyd like Eileen's perseverance in convincing us what was good for us.Lily (finance manager) had all the patience to answer the zillion questions that we posed for her & she gave us all the perspectives and guided in the almost 1.5 hour question session. This was our first big splash and we wanted to be sure about our decision and I guess Eileen & Lily did help us in that.Though there were some issues before the delivery of my car, it got all sorted out well in the end. As a honest feedback, I would say that the internal processes have to be tuned a little and people have to be insync.But I would definitely recommend this dealership to a friendRegards

Robert Levine was so comprehensive with all the information he provided. He definitely spent the time with me to go over all the different features and he actually demonstrated them in the car, which was a huge help! He was definitely customer oriented. I appreciate the quick and easy service at DCH. I was able to purchase a new car so quickly!

Working with Paul and Vipin was truly a pleasure! From the moment I met Paul he was nothing but pleasant and extremely helpful, explaining and showing my daughter and me the Civic and Accord models. Not once did he pressure or mislead me and when I settled on the Civic he took the time to explain the various feature and color options. Vipin was amazing, making the normally stressful financing portion of the process truly painless!!! In fact, these two gentlemen have completely redefined the car buying experience for me!I have already begun telling everyone I know that they need to go to DCH Academy Honda in general and work with Paul and Vipin in particular: my personal "Car buying Dream Team"!!!

I have really good experience buying my new Honda CR-V at DCH Academy Honda. Mari Lobeto send me a quote right away over the email, so I had an idea what price to expect. Originally I narrowed my choice between Honda CR-V and Subary Forester, but during my visit to the Honda dealership I figured this is it, I do not go to somewhere else. My sales person Erich Tam was very nice, knowledgeable and very kind. During the test drive we drove on the highway and the local streets so I could really test how car handles in different situations. It was really rainy day so I was able to fully tested the AWD on the Honda CR-V. Erich showed me and explained all the controls and buttons in the car, so basically I do not have to read the car manual to figure this out. He took my old car for traid-in evaluation and gave me a reasonable value. He wasn't pushy at all, didn't try to sell unnecessary extra stuff like they usually do at NY dealerships. Erich Tam, Chris Mazzeo and Stephen Chung took an extra steps to make my car buying experience as nice and pleasant as possible. I would definitely recommend this dealership to my friends and will buy my next car from them again Vladimir

This is my second Honda. I stay in Edison and had purchased the first one from a dealer in my town. Having had not so good an overall experience there, when there was a need for another vehicle, we went to DCH ACADEMY HONDA. They have ads on our local community radio station and they have great deals which would want you to visit them . And we ended up coming out fully satisfied. Everything was handled so professionally and in a transparent manner. Absolutely no Gimmicks. What was offered was what we got, let me add--AND MORE. No surprises in Finance Dept either. A special word of praise for Bryan Hechler. He took special care to provide us with all information about the car. Understood our requirements, made us feel that we were at the right place, which was so influential in our decision to get our vehicle. Special thanks to Ali, Stephen Chung, and above all Nitin Bassi. I would definitely recommend the dealership.

Cris Mazzeo and Joseph Koedros were very professional and i would recommend to anyone i know who is looking for a car to come see Them. Not only will they get a great deal, but for me purchasing a car has never been easier.Both gentlemen were very courteous and treated me like family. We are in the market for another car and just because of the way we were treated at DCH Academy Honda, you can be sure that we will be returning to purchase our car from them.Thank You both for a great car buying experience. Michael and Fran Murphy (I also dealt with Steven Chung who was also very professional and made the completion of the deal go very smooth)Thanks Again To you all

This dealership was very helpful, friendly and honest. I bought a used Honda civic here. After test driving I noticed some issues with the car and they were happy to take care of the problems. Even after purchasing they resolved an issue that kept arising. I had gone to many dealerships before coming to DCH Old bridge and I felt they were the most upfront and professional. I'm glad that I gave them my business and would highly recommend them to anyone else looking for a decent new or used car.

Rob Levine was a great salesperson. He showed me the vehicle's features item by item, did not pressure me, was very concerned with my needs and purchasing/trade desires, and made the experience pleasant. He went over my car to ensure it was properly delivered, even sending it back for an interior detailing do-over when it did not meet his standards. What a pleasant turn about! I was very happy with his singular focus on me when I was with him. Love the new car, and love this dealership! From the sale, throughout the service experience long after the payments were done. (This is my second vehicle with DCH Academy Honda.) #happycustomer

I used the Costco car buying program. Stopped into the dealership and was greeted by Joseph Koedros. He treated us with respect and was very friendly. Joe walked us through every part of the transaction, from test drive to the final inspection(4+ hours). Over all this was car buying experience I've had in my 50+ years

I had an offer for 17,000 for same car from planet honda by a rep there. I also came to DCH honda to see what the conditions and prices there are. Since the car was for my elder son I did not want to buy it without his presence and when the salesman gave the quote close to 23000 I asked for lesser price and informed him I will decide and come back. But I was pushed to accept the deal and in the process my son for who the car was is also upset he couldn't browse and look up options or decide on his own. I am not going to buy him any more cars so i am also upset I gave way to your rep and that too at higher price.Also The price I got from your own internet Rep is 17,555 including shipping and handling which clearly shows I payed lest $ 1000 more than the best price of car!!

Because the experience at DCH Academy Honda was great all tho slow on the signing with the bank paper work everything else was executed properly and quickly. The salesmen Tim Crowley was knowledgeable about the car and answered all my questions and was very helpful with letting me test drive the car and such.

DCH Academy Honda was highly recommended to me by my mechanic as a company easy to work with and very reliable. I found the Honda I wanted on their website and DAVID HARRIS was available to give me information in "real time" on their site. I made an appointment to see the car the following afternoon. I met David. He was helpful, genial, and most accommodating. He answered all of my questions patiently and gave me plenty of time to look and drive and decide. The entire experience was pleasant; something I had not really expected in buying a car. There was no pressure and I came away with my beautiful Honda CR-V LX a very happy woman and a very satisfied customer. Everyone seeing my "new" 2008 car thinks it is brand new! It is to me. Thanks, David; and thanks to everyone at DCH.

I recently purchased a 2013 Honda Accord Coupe from DCH. When I first walked in, I was greeted by Robert Levine. I was looking for a new car, after having an Impala for about 9 years, it was time. Robert walked me through all the steps and was amazing with my indecisiveness. He gave great advice and answered all of my questions. The process was painless! I also wanted to get the remote start integrated and it didn't take nearly as long as I expected. The night I went to pick up my car, Robert walked me through everything from the remote start, to all the alerts that could occur in my dashboard, to helping me understand how the bluetooth worked. So far, no disappointments. I highly recommend this dealership and Robert Levine.

I would definitely recommend this dealer to all my family and friends. Their staff was very friendly starting from my salesman Tim to their finance department. Tim was very friendly, professional and specially very patient the whole entire time since I had to translate to my dad in Spanish. He went over the car with my dad and ordered was was missing on the car. My dad was very satisfied with his service and profesnalism.

I stopped into DCH on my way to work thinking this is my last shot at trying to trade in a car I was totally unhappy with. Every place I went to they pushed me in a car told me how great this car is for the money, That is how I wound up with a car two years ago that I totally am embarrass to say I pressure bought and was very unhappy. Well all that changed at DCH. My salesperson actually listened to me her name was Eileen Conlon. She asked me what made me unhappy with the other vehicle and what my likes were. After listening to me she said I think I have the answer. I wanted a car but I've always had an SUV and was so undecided. Eileen said did you ever see the Crosstour? Well I looked at that car/suv and couldn't believe my eyes. Again Eileen thank you for really listening and boy you hit the nail on the head. I absolutely love my new Crosstour. Car dealerships should have more people like Eileen (she listens). Warmest regards, Regina Swider

I came to DCH Academy Honda on two occasions. First I came 2 weeks ago just to meet someone in internet sales. I met Paul Rittberg. He was very friendly and helpful. Most of all he was not hard pressure sales.At that time I was deciding between the Honda CR-V and the Toyota RAV4. This past Friday I came back to the dealership and told Paul my plan was to visit 3 dealerships that day. Paul was very straight forward and listened to my concerns about pricing and fiance. He clearly explained the pricing and had no problem with me leaving to check with other dealerships. I left, but made it clear I would be back in touch with him before the end of the day. At my next dealership I found myself in the type of negotiations I wanted to avoid. The sales rep was giving me different prices but no details. I told him I had been to one dealer already and was going to go to another, after I left there. He told me none of the numbers he gave me could be confirmed without checking with his manager. He was not willing to give me his best price for the car because I told him I would not finalize a deal until I went to the third dealer that day. I felt a great deal of pressure from this salesman and eventually left that dealer with no intention of going back. The third dealership was better then the second but could not compare to DCH Accademy Honda. I made my way back to Academy and completed a deal with Paul Rittberg. He was very courteous and explained every detail. He had a great deal of patience and answered every one of my questions. I commend him for his professionalism. I also want to commend Vipin Rishi for his honest and straight forward explanation of financing. He was very helpful in helping me decide on what was best for me and my situation. The term and percentage were great and fit my budget. Vipin like Paul was very professional and made my car buying experience a pleasure. After the financial paperwork was complete Paul took his time explaining the features in my new car and answered all of my questions. I would recommend DCH Academy Honda and the entire staff to anyone looking to buy a car. They make buying a car a pleasurable experience. Something that seems rare these days.

I first went to Honda to look at the new 2013 Honda Accord. I was interested in the LX model but was not familiar with Honda vehicles at all, so I wanted to browse and take a test drive while I decided. Also, I had read that the new Continually Variable Transmission (CVT) could be jerky (Spoiler: It is not jerky at all).Joe Koedros was the sales rep we were paired with. He was very personable and after asking my wife and I some basic questions about what we were looking for, took us right out for a test drive. He pulled one of the LX models off of their lot and we took it out for a road test. The ride was so smooth and the list of standard features is awesome (back up camera, blue tooth, and even automatic climate control). At no time did Joe try to convince my wife and I to get a different, more expensive model. He respected our choice and focused on what we wanted.After the test drive, he took my car to get appraised for a trade-in. They offered us a fair price for my used car and we looked over the detailed pricing sheet for the LX model. After reviewing the financing options, my wife and I wanted some time to think over our purchase before signing. There was no pressure for us to stay and sign that afternoon. Joe was very understanding to what we wanted and simply gave us his card and told us to give him a call when we had decided.It didn't take us long after getting home to decide that the LX was the right choice for us. I called Joe back only about 2 or 3 hours after we left and told him I would be back in the next morning to buy a new car. When I arrived the next day, the car had already been pulled for detailing and Joe was ready with all of the paperwork to finish the deal. The process was smooth and relaxed. I have been driving the car for almost a week now and have absolutely no buyers remorse. I love it! I would absolutely recommend this car and this dealership to any of my friends. We will be going back here for my wife's new car when it dies in a couple of years.

I was looking for a fairly new, used car after being sold a lemon car. Veronica was our sales person and was more than helpful. She helped us for hours and was very friendly the entire time.I walked in and already knew what car I wanted. The car had some scratches and they were willing to fix the entire bumper and had it fixed within a few days. I am very happy with the accord I purchased it is a beautiful car. The buying process overall was very good and I recommend this dealer to anyone interested in very clean, well kept used cars. They have a huge selection and I would definitely purchase another car here.

I'm not in any way a fan of car shopping and find it very stressful, so I'm sure that colors my ratings. Joe was very helpful, though. We did test drive 2 vehicles and I did feel a bit like we were being influenced towards the one that was not best for us, but I understand there is pressure to move product. I also feel there should be some sort of loyalty discount. My husband buys/trades regularly every 2 years, and we've bought multiple new cars from DCH in the past. You're closer to us and more convenient, but our previous 2 cars (bought at same time) ended up being purchased at Academy Honda after we went to DCH first and felt as if we'd never been there before, deal-wise. Academy was able to meet our rate on clean, excellently maintained trade-ins with relatively low mileage.

It's been a couple of weeks, and I am enjoying my new 2013 Accord Sport. I was very pleased with Mark Kamatoy's assistance in providing an "affordable" price and for providing sufficient information about the vehicle. I'd also like to express my appreciation to Paul Marques for taking the time to allow me to test drive the Accord Sport and for pointing out the features on the vehicle. Academy Dealership associates ensured a smooth sales transactions meeting all of my needs during my visit (and even after the sale).

it was a good car shopping experience. The sales rep was not aggressive and listened to our needs and worked within our budget. He was very personable and friendly and easy to talk with. During the test drive the dealer explained all the technical things in the car which was helpful and once we purchased the car he took time out to help set up our phone and radio and show us how to operate all of the extras in the car.

i just wanted to thank both Joe Guzzo and Vipin Rishi for making my experience a good one. I came in already upset from my experience at Kay Honda in Eatontown, as I was treated rudely and disresctfully. I was both lied to and treated like a child, quite bluntly. Joe and Vipin treated me with respect and helped me make an educated and financially wise decision...I would recommend them to anyone buying a car. Sadly, I bought three vehicles from Kay Honda, but will no longer be going back there. I was told that only 20$ can be taken off the sticker price (which is ridiculous) and was not given financial advice that was helpful. They were condescending and ignored by budget concerns. From now on, ill stick to Academy Honda :)Thanks Joe and Vipin!Kathleen S.

We traveled 45 mins away from our home to DCH Academy Honda on the recommendation of a friend. Boy are we glad we listened to him! We were met with a smile and handshake, and immediately felt we "came to the right place" after meeting with John Nuygen. He introduced us to Joe Koedros, our salesman who worked with us, and more smiles, we felt very comfortable with all of these professional people around us. No pressure, what we received were honest answers. They listened to our concerns, our wants, etc. No bait and switch going on here, no double talk either. Showed us what they had in stock. Took into consideration our needs. Then we met with Tian Reid in Financing. Who walked us thru more offers, etc. And whether we said "yes" or "no", again no pressure. Everyone, down the line, was willing to answer all of our questions and listen to and address our concerns. We left the dealership with smiles on our faces as we drove our brand new Honda off the lot. The very next day, we received a phone call from Joe our salesman to see "how we were doing with our new Honda" and again told us, just call me if you need anything. This is the 1st time we dealt with this dealership. And I have to say, I'm so sorry I didn't know about it sooner!

Great dealership. Most dealers scam you into buying so many things you don't need but they were all very straightforward and helpful. Sam Beshay was a great salesperson and he to the time to explain all the features to us. He gave us a great deal gave us the car the same day. I am so glad I bought my 2013 Honda Civic EX from him. Would definitely come back to him again for my next car.

My experience with Paul and Stephen was nothing but enjoyable. They were both more helpful then I could have ever asked for. I walked in there with an idea of what I wanted and walked out with my dream car. I told Paul what i wanted and he provided exactly that. He gave me a crash course on the car and helped me stay within my budget. Stephan had everything laid out for me when I went to pick up the car so that all i needed to do was sign. I couldn't thank them enough and I will definitely recommend them to anyone I know looking for a new car! I can't wait to go back in three years and see what they have for me then!

Anthony Marszalek of DCH Academy Honda is an excellent service director. I have dealt with him before. I took my Honda Odyssey to him because I had a strange sound coming from the engine. When I was in Florida a short time ago, I took my car to a Honda dealer because of the same problem. They found nothing wrong with the car and charged me $62.50. The problem persisted so when I arrived back home in NJ, I took the car to DCH Academy Honda. I have dealt with them for 10 years.They found the problem (motor mounts) and repaired the car to my complete satisfaction. Although there are Honda dealers closer to where I live in central NJ, I travel at least 45 miutes to DCH because I know that I will get a professional job at a fair price.

I have made approximately ten new car purchases throughout my life. This was by far, my best car buying experience.Sales representative,Otis Vidale, was very informative ,answered all my questions and never used any pressured sales pitch.He was professional and helpful throughout the entire process.Finance representative Lilly was also very helpfull, she advised me of products available ,extended warranties ,etc.,informed me of options available to me but did not attempt to influence me in my decision. I would certainly recommend DCH and representative Otis Vidale to purchase a vehicle.

I am from Brooklyn and travel over two bridges to Old Bridge just to do business with this dealership. This is my second time there. First time was 2009 when I bought my first Accord. A co-worker recommended them to me and Paul Rittberg (salesperson) gave me the "out the door price" and was true to his word. He made the deal painless and easy to understand. Paul also explained different options and made them very clear to me. No tricks. No problems. Lily, the financial mgr. also take my hat off to. Thanks guys!!!

I am from Brooklyn and go out to Old Bridge to buy my Honda. This is the second time visiting DCH. That should tell you a lot already. I deal with Paul Rittberg salesman. He is honest and tells you in detail what all your options are. You can do the math which Paul also shows you. Lily, the finacial mgr. also made things smooth. Took me less than two hours and I was out the door with my boys. I love this place and feel very comfortable there. Speaking of out the door, just ask Paul what the "out the door" price is on the exact model you like and compare prices. That's why I travel across the Verrazano/outer bridge. Worth the ride for me. Thanks Paul and DCH!!! Very happy.

Paul Papis and Vipin Rishi were the employees that worked diligently with me to make the process smooth and hassle free, they were clear and thorough in explaining the leasing process, the car features and options available for me. I even got tips on how I could save money on insurance, overall I am extremely satisfied with the car and the whole experience. these guys are true professionals and they will work with you to match you with a vehicle that will fit your needs. keep up the good work, you will definitely have my business again.

If you are looking to buy a new Honda I strongly recommend that you visit DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge, NJ. Last week, my experience at DCH was simply the best Ive had at a car dealership. I had been shopping around for several weeks, did a lot of internet research and visited several Honda dealers in my immediate local area. Each time I encountered the usual pressure sales tactics and generally unpleasant salesmen. Any attempts to get an out-the-door price were met with confusing, long-winded responses or flat-out refusals. Fortunately, I was made aware of DHC Academy Honda and, although their dealership is not so local for me, I decided to check them out on the internet. What I found were many, many reviews like the one you are reading now, i.e. extremely positive. This seemed a little too good to be true but the sheer number of good reviews encouraged me to get in touch with them. Within a few days I had all the information I needed by email from their excellent internet specialist Mark Kamatoy. Everything was clear and upfront so I made a showroom appointment, although even at this stage I thought things were too good to be true. To my very pleasant surprise, the clarity and upfront approach was maintained at the showroom where the sales consultant Joseph Guzzo was happy to answer all my questions and show me some cars. Joseph Guzzo is without doubt the best car sales consultant you could ever hope to do business with extremely personable, professional and possessing zero of the attitude/pressure tactics that one would normally associate with a car salesman. It was genuinely a pleasure to buy a car from this guy and at the end of the day I walked away with my new car for a fair price, easily beating the numbers offered at the other dealerships. Strongly recommend this dealership and these two sales guys.

DCH Academy Honda is a great place to buy a new car! They are very friendly, polite and communicate with their customers very well. They think in the customers' perspective. I went thinking about buying a brand new 2013 Honda Accord LX and they were supportive about my choice. They gave me a great deal for the 2013 Honda Accord Sedan Sports that I came out buying the new sports version. They are very helpful and can answer any questions the customers ask. I recommend going to Joseph Koedros because he's cooperative, friendly, caring and a great guy! I recommend going to DCH Academy Honda and buying a car because they are friendly and give great deals that you cannot resist.

I would definitely recommend anyone looking for a Honda to go see Paul and he will take care of you. He was a wonderful sales person and I would go see him again for another car. Tian was also wonderful in getting us the right deal. I left the dealership happy and would definitely return!!!!

I purchase a used car from this dealer on 7/24/13 and I was back a day later to pick up my plates. I saw a new card which I was very interested to return the car I had just purchase to purchase the new one. But the first answer I got was how I was going to loose money instead of providing me with different options to make the process easier. The smart answer I got from the finance manager was to purchase another vehicle when all I wanted was to switch a car I just bought for the 2013 model. I was thinking of buying on SUV in the future from this dealer but that will not happened. After I look at my paperwork there's was also a charge for 299 which I didn't authorize.

Overall I had a better experience here then at honda universe in Lakewood. I was set on buying an accord coupe and Joe Lisciandri found me a nice one! He is not pushy like other car salesman. Joe was down to earth and a really nice guy. Terry B the finance manager was also very nice and worked with me so I can afford my payments. The staff at this dealership dont try to push you into getting added on options, etc. I told them what my budget was and they worked with me. Im satisfied with my purchase and would recommend this dealership and go talk to Joe L, he is the best!

Great experience from start to finish. Requested an internet quote based on this dealers reputation and ranking on DealerRater and other sites. Promptly received an actual price quote from Jennifer that clearly laid out what was (D&H charges) and what was not included (NJ taxes etc) in the total amount and what those non-included items would cost us. The price for the 2013 Honda CR-V LX AWD we were interested in was excellent based on the research I had done on line (Edmunds, Kelly Blue Book) for pricing. When we got to dealer we were met by Jennifer who introduced us to our sales rep Paul and she gave him an actual copy of the Email we had received so there was no question about what price we were actually quoted. Paul immediately took us out for a test drive, clearly explaining the instrumentation, options and mechanical highlights (Econ option etc) on the vehicle before and during the ride. When got back we picked out the color vehicle we wanted and wrote up the contract and secured the insurance and the financing (0.9%) that we wanted. Lily (the finance manager) took us thru the paperwork and explained the other extended warrantly options to us but there was no "hard sell" or arm twisting. This was without a doubt the most straightforward, transparent, ENJOYABLE car buying experience I have ever had in 40 years of owning cars.

This is my first time leasing a car. I was nervous and wary of being screwed. Paul was great. His low key, no pressure style was what I was hoping for but not expecting. He explained everything to me in a way that made me feel comfortable with the new experience. He went out of his way to make a good deal even better. I could not ask for more from a salesperson. Not only do I have a nice car at a nice price; I have a car dealership I can go to and a salesman I can rely on to give me a good deal.

Had a fantastic experience with Sam. He was very knowledgable about the vehicles we were interested in and I really believe he sincerely had our best interests at heart. I trust Sam. We had visited another local Honda dealership and had a terrible experience so we were weary when we came to DCH but quickly found out we had nothing to worry about. Sam was professional, honest and easy to work with. He was reachable by phone and email and really understood what we were looking for so he didn't waste our time. Would definitely recommend this dealership and Sam in particular.

Joe was right on target with what we were looking for. He kept his eyes out and promised to find something suitable for what we needed and he did exactly that. I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a car, new or used, to go to DCH Academy Honda and would tell them to ask for Joe Koedros. He was a pleasure to have as a salesman.

DCH Honda is a great place. We've had experience with all departments and can honestly say that everyone we encounter at DCH is a pleasure to meet. Thanks Joe and everyone...can't wait to come back for number five!

I have been shopping for the right car at the right price for the past few months. Finally a friend recommended DCH Academy Honda and I decided to pay them a visit. I had the pleasure of meeting Essam Beshay who made the whole buying a car process simple. He worked with me to find exactly what I wanted and placed me into the perfect car. He was very patient and amicable during the whole process. We discovered that the 2013 Honda Accord was the best fit for me and I signed the papers. I was extremely satisfied with the customer service I received and my amazing new car. It very rare to find someone who actually works with you to make sure you leave getting exactly what you want.

I worked with Sam while purchasing a brand new Accord. I was not expecting to buy that day, however, Sam did an excellent job making me feel comfortable enough to make DCH Academy Honda my first and last stop. He was very knowledgeable and patient when answering our questions and addressing our concerns. He was able to help us select the perfect vehicle for me and my family. Sam could not have been more helpful than he was and made our car buying experience fast, simple, and highly satisfactory. Sam provided us with impeccable customer service, a quality that we will certainly remember the next time we purchase a new car. We strongly recommend Sam to all our friends, family, and anyone who wants to purchase a car with no hassle, pressure, and 100% satisfaction.

It was a pleasure to buy our new Honda CRV at DCH Academy Honda. Everyone that we dealt with was pleasant and friendly and did not pressure us in any way. Jennifer contacted us by both email and telephone several times after we had submitted a pricing request through AAA and was very agreeable. She obviously prepared our salesman, Robert Levine, as he had all of our information. Robert is an ideal salesman: he is personable, extremely knowledgeable about the product, and is not pushy. The price that he quoted was less than than the AAA price,and Robert disclosed and explained all of the fees and offered additional services, but did not pressure us at all. We were especially surprised and pleased that he offered us a $500 Honda loyalty discount that we applied to our downpayment after we had already negotiated the deal. Robert also showed us how all of the systems worked and even programmed my radio stations and synced my bluetooth! Vipin was very efficient and we were able to walk out of the dealership with our new CRV, customized and clean, within three hours. We dread buying a new car, but we were pleasantly surprised and will definitely recommend both Robert and DCH Academy Honda to our friends and family!

I have been working with Academy Honda and Robert Levine for 20 years now. I just bought a new 2013 Honda Accord and I can tell you this was the best car-buying experience of my life. Robert was great as usual and he was immensely helpful in finalizing the deal and then teaching me about all the new features of the Accord. I would tell you to promote him, but I don't want to lose him as a Salesman the next time I buy a new car, which will be very soon!! Tony Donohoe

Mr. Ali was at all times courteous, respectful, and friendly. My experience was great. After visiting other dealers and walking out of three of them, it was refreshing to have been treated well. They clearly place a high value on their customers. I would go back there again and would recommend to friends. Thanks DCH Academy Honda!

We started our search for a new Odyssey EX-L back in June, where we went to another Honda dealership down the road from DCH in Old Bridge. I left that place feeling as if our business was not wanted, so I took my business to DCH Academy. Working in technology and always being on the computer, our initial conversations started with Marianna in Internet sales at the beginning of July. We told her what we were looking for/price, due to our vacation starting, we were unable to continue the sales discussion until after we returned. Marianna was very persistent on looking for the Model and color we were looking for. While we were on vacation, she emailed to confirm our interest. My husband was literally on the phone with her at the airport going to and from vacation. Once we came back vacation, Marianna was able to locate a Smoky Topaz Odyssey EXL. She broke down the FINAL OUT OF THE DOOR price (per base price, tax and fees) and emailed over to us so we knew exactly what we were paying. Though we did have another internet sales agent looking for our business. Marianna did her job and swayed us over to DCH Academy. She was very pleasant, to the point and very easy to work with. She knew what we were looking for and was able to deliver within our price range. Thereafter, on our initial visit to DCH, we met Paul Papis who was a sales representative to see us through all the paperwork, etc. He was very patient and helpful with all our questions and going back and forth. Even on the day we were to pick up the car, we made a change where the paperwork needed to be recreated. He was very understanding and patient with us during this process. He went through all the features of the car. What's more important, Paul understood our needs, he provided his inputs but let us make our decision with out any pressure. We made the deal on Monday and picked up the car on Friday. I would definitely recommend paying a visit to DCH Academy Honda, Marianna Lobeto, and Paul Papis for a new car.!! They respect the individual, look out for your needs, all without the additional pressure.Thanks again Paul/Marianna...I am loving my new Odyssey EX-L!

There should be more salespeople like Eileen. We came in coming back from AC and we told her we wanted to see the Honda Pilot but were not ready to buy and we didn't have much time because we had a party to go to! She kept in touch with us and was not pushy!' After a week we decide to go back ready to purchase a Pilot and she made our experience the best!' This was our 3rd lease but the first with Honda and DCH Academy. Even when we went into finance it was so pleasant!! This was our best experience !! Would definitely recommend Eileen and DCH!!

I MUST start by saying i have never felt the need to write a good review for a dealership EVER actually I have written plenty of bad ones over the years! This is my first experience with DCH Honda & I am sooo impressed I felt compelled to spread the word! I had just left an Infiniti dealership looking for an suv disgusted with my customer service experience ready to go home empty handed until my hubby said "lets just stop in to see the honda pilot" begrudgingly i said "fine." I had no patience for another sleezy car salesman & was just going to look at the pilot and run out of there UNTIL i met Paul Papis!!! He is the sweetest, most honest car salesman I have ever encountered!! There are no words to describe this most pleasant car buying experience!!! I cant even begin to explain since any one who has ever purchased a car from a dealership knows it is the most unpleasant, painstaking experience ever!! Can you tell how much i hate it? lol NOT THIS TIME!!!! I will never buy another car from any other dealership or any other salesman!!! PAUL PAPIS should teach classes on customer service I wanted to buy the pilot from him & i wanted to give him a bonus at the end of my visit!!! You must go see him & experience "PAUL PAPIS SERVICE" for yourself!!! I can honestly say we cant wait for our lease to be over to go back & get another car from him!! People you will not be disappointed!! Everyone should visit Paul Papis at least once in their car buying life time and all of you sleezy salesman out there go watch him in action & take notes!!! I wanted to give him my money!! I must also add that the finance experience was amazing also!!! Tian Reid was an absolute pleasure!!! DCH Honda was amazing!!!

My experience with DCH Academy Honda was extremely pleasant from my initial phone call to them to the time I drove away in my brand new Fit! I called in asking about a Fit deal that I had found on the internet which had expired. The dealership was kind enough to not only honor that deal, but top it! Paul Papis was patient enough to work with me all day. I really appreciated his respectfulness of the fact that I am a first-time buyer. He was honest, upfront, and not what one would describe as the stereotypical "pushy" salesman. I currently have several friends who are considering purchasing new cars, and I've already recommended that they head over to DCH and ask for Paul's assistance. Once my current lease is up, I will certainly be returning to both DCH and Paul. THANK YOU SO MUCH AGAIN, PAUL!!

I purchased my new Honda Civic Si from this dealership and all I had coming out of this experience was nothing but good things. This was my first time buying a car. It all started with working with Jennifer in getting a quoted price and the salesperson Khalil was very helpful and patient when it came with the car buying process. When I met with the finance manager, Tian, the experience was even better knowing that both of them had my back and were patient in trying to work for the best deal possible even in my current financial situation. I would highly recommend this dealership and the people I worked with to my friends, family and anyone who reads this.

This was my best experience in obtaining a new car. From the moment of arrival through driving off the lot in our new Odyssey EX-L, we were amazed at the quality of service and speed at which the process was completed. Joe and all the members of the Academy Honda Team exceeded our expectations which were very high to begin with. Our expectations were set very high based on our prior experiences with DCH Paramus Honda Team. We were very happy to find out that the same standards of quality seem to apply at all DCH Honda locations. Joe was extremely professional and efficient. He quickly identified out requirements, provided the best options and completed all paper work in the fastest manner I have seen while also maintaining the highest level of quality. We plan to return for our next purchase and plan to recommend Joe and the Academy Honda Team to anyone we know.

After receiving multiple recommendations about the quality of a Honda car, I decided to visit DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge, NJ. This was my first new car purchase, and I could not have asked for a smoother experience. I was very anxious and nervous about making such a big purchase, and I never once felt pressured working with my salesman. He let me explore my options, answered any questions I had (which was a lot!), and made me feel comfortable before purchasing my car. Mr. Joe Koedros was easy to reach, and was always willing to help me in any way during this experience. It was very important to me to find a salesman that I felt comfortable with because this was my first new car purchase. Joe was so personable and kept me informed throughout the whole time. On the day that I bought my car, I met with Mr. Tian Reid to discuss the financing. I was lucky enough to be able to work with another friendly and helpful DCH employee. I felt comfortable during each step of this process, and I would definitely recommend anyone to visit DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge. I absolutely love my new Honda Civic, and am so happy with my overall experience.

This place is hands down the best place. I also feel that Essam Beshay, or Sam as he likes to be called is a big teddy bear with an accent. He gave us the space we needed to help make any decision. We took 3 days to make our decision as we were looking at different vehicles, makes and models, but we just coming back here. Other places had the high pressure sales, pitch and all. We dreaded going to any of these place. All accept this dealer. We built up such a repore with Sam that when we drove away, You couldn't help but look in the rear view mirror and feel as you were leaving a friend.

A few days ago I leased a Honda Civic from DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge. My sales rep was Paul Marques and my financial rep was Tian Reid. They were absolutely fabulous!!! After our first visit last Saturday, Paul called me Monday afternoon to follow-up. I told him we were going to check out a few places and see who gave us the best deal, bc we weren't so much shopping for a specific car, but we were shopping more for a price. After visiting 3 other dealerships it was clear that Paul had given us what sounded like the best deal, so we went back to Honda Monday evening to talk to Paul again in person. He laid everything out for us and we decided we wanted to take the deal. Unfortunately, the financial rep who was going to be helping us, got wrapped up with his current customer, but Paul made our wait extremely enjoyable. He was so friendly and personable, that we didn't mind the wait. Then once we finally met Tian, it was 100% clear that he too had made it worth our wait. He was amazing. The both of them were. Tian was upfront and honest right from the start. He didn't sugar coat my credit issues, but said he was going to do his best to work with me and that's EXACTLY what he did. The financial office had closed on Monday night bc we didn't get there until late, so I had to go back Tuesday to sign the papers and close the deal, but I didn't even mind having to go back for a third time because everyone at Honda was so nice and made my time there extremely enjoyable. I got a great deal and met an outstanding bunch of people. There's no question that not only will Paul and Tian be getting MY business again, but I have already recommended them to several of my friends and family!!! Thanks Paul and Tian!!!! You WILL be hearing from me again... that you can count on. Best of luck to you both... as well as the rest of the staff over at DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge! Keep up the outstanding work!!! :)Regards,Stephanie Schmidt

My wife and I went to this dealer as a first choice due to Honda's long and great quality of cars and trying to find a good special for her needs. We got to connect with Paul probably 5 minutes after just walking around and he sat with us, and was very friendly and honest about everything from the first second we got to his desk. His friendliness, knowledge of his work and care for the customers made us feel at ease at all times. Buying or leasing a car can be hectic and time consuming, but Paul made sure he got all out attention and kept us informed of everything. He was also very clear and helpful on all details on the car we wanted to understand it better. His professionalism, honesty and level of work deserve to be praised. I will recommend him for anybody looking for a good new car. I appreciate all his help and I'm more than sure that we are not the only ones. Thanks Paul, keep up the good work!

Joe helped us to get this new car, answered all our doubts and queries patiently.

Paul Pais is a gem! I have been dealing with Paul for many years now as our personal Honda salesman. I am a long time customer of Honda since 1992 and have leased MANY Acoords/Pilots. Paul is knowledgeable, respectful, responsive, and a very trustworthy salesman. These are not qualities found in many. My husband and I will continue to return to Paul to lease our Honda's regardless of where he works. So keep him at Acadamy and keep him happy. He deserves to be well compensated for a job well done....over and over again. Thank you!

Joe Guzzo was tremendous. He was knowledgeable with a great personality and actually listened to what you were saying. I met him in March and was very impressed with him. Could not swing purchase back then but I told him I would keep him in mind when I was ready. Glad I got the chance to give him the sale. My daughter may soon be in the market and I wouldn't hesitate to call on Joe again.Phil Esposito

We had so many questions and he answered to all of them. He was very helpful. He helped us to choose the right car, exactly what we were looking for. We tried to drive few cars and chose the best for us. And the price was great too. We are grateful to Tim for he did. Another person who really helped us was Dmitry. That was our first credit and thanks to his efforts we got very good credit with low percentage. We are still surprised that he could do it. We are very happy with service we've got. Thank you Tim, Dmitry and DCH Academy Honda!

My overall experience was great. From my initial internet dialogue to the initial greeting when arriving at the dealership. Professional, straightforward and quick. Paul was respectful and allowed the process to proceed with professionalism.

Paul Papis is the salesman to see when you are shopping for a car. He makes a person feel very comfortable throughout the leasing experience with his knowledgeable background and pleasant attitude. He is able to meet a customers needs while creating a friendly relationship that I believe will last a lifetime. This is our second time leasing an Odyssey with Paul. Both experiences have been professional, and we continue to be satisfied customers thanks to Paul.

It was a pleasure to work with Joseph Guzzo on my new car purchase. He was able to get me the price I was looking for and had all the paperwork ready when I came to pick up the car. I highly recommend using this dealership when purchasing a new vehicle.

Just purchased my second used car from DCH Honda and i was not dissapointed. The sales associate (Joe) was helpful and patient. He stayed late with me and went over a bunch of different options to help me find the car that worked best with my budget. Dmitry in finance was very helpful, explained everything, and addressed all my concerns. A++ DealerA++ Staff

Gerry was very respectful and accommodating, making what is usually a nerve-racking experience a very pleasant one. I had a few cars picked out before I stopped in - and I had to stick to my budget. Gerry and his team spent hours with me, test driving and talking payment options. In the end, I traded-in my car and drove away with a great deal! I highly recommend this dealership for their service and selection.

Pleaseant experience. Knowledgeable salesman, willing to spend time going over the details to make sure a buyer understands fully the care he or she is buying. Honest and straightforward. Highly recommended.

Joe Guzzo was very professional, friendly and worked hard to get me a great deal. I have already recommended him to friends and would definitely purchase a car from him again. Lily was also very professional and courteous. It was a pleasure doing business with both of them.

Our experience with this dealership was excellent. Very thorough, friendly and to the point. We have had many cars over the years and have never had a salesman that made us feel as comfortable as Joseph Guzzo did. Even after purchasing the car, he still emails us and returns calls with questions we have. Prices are similar between all the Honda dealers, but honesty and courtesy make a great dealership.

My husband and I had a great experience with DCH Honda and sales rep Paul. He was easy to talk to and did not pressure us into anything. He was very helpful explaining all of the car features. We leased the Honda Pilot. We will definitely come to DCH in the future and recommend any friends looking for a new car.

I have made 4 trips to this honda dealer to get my indicator signal issue fixed and still they have failed to get it resolved. First trip : They did something and told me to come back when parts are ordered. They said that i will be notified when parts arrive , but they never called back and i had to keep on calling them . Second trip : They recieved wrong parts and i knew after reaching there. Thsi time they called back ( as they realized that they did not call the previous time) Third trip : They recieved correct parts and then installed them . After 2 days the same issue cropped up and i had to call them again to get it fixed. Fourth trip : Went to the dealer and got to hear that they will order a new unit to replace switch unit. They said that they will call back when parts arrive . It has been more than a month and they do not care about it. I do not know how many times i have to keep making trips to get it fixed. I am waiting to see if at all they call back. This is just a reflection of how poor they handle the customer and their incompetency to resolve the issue within the first visit ( or max second visit). And at the end of the visit they want that customer has to give a rating of 5 . I do not have any issue in giving that rating , but if i am not a satisfied customer , how will i give a false rating and good review ??

Sam Beshay exceeded my expectations from the minute I walked in, to the minute I drove off the lot, in my new CR-V. This was the most seamless transaction that I have ever experienced. He was honest and trustworthy and even made sure that the tank was full before I drove off the lot. This is my 7th new car purchase and don't recall ever being treated with such courtesy. The dealership is nice and clean and everyone is cheery and helpful.

DCH Academy Honda and Kalhil was a pleasure to do business with. He was very professional and treats his customers very fairly. My family has been dealing with Kalhil for a very long time and have always been pleased. DCH and Kalhil are highly recommended and I plan to deal with him in the future.

Internet sales consultant Veronica Gallucio was already ready with the list of potential used and certified Honda sedan that we would be lloking at based on the criteria I sent her before via email. This helped us narrow down our choices to two cars and saved a lot of time. Her knowledge and great dealing skill with customer made our car buying easy and satisfactory. I will surely have DCH Academy and Veronica on top of my list of dealerships.sales associate when I purchase my 3rd Honda vehicle.

I wanted to let cyberspace know about a great experience we had buying a new Honda Civic. The reviews on Yelp, Google, etc significantly influence my purchasing decisions so I thought Id try to sway folks out there in the direction of DCH Academy Honda.After interacting with 15-20 other dealerships in the NJ and NY area we discovered the pleasure of working with the down to earth, knowledgeable and friendly people at DCH. The dynamic trio of Ms. Jennifer Calderone, Mike (Manager) and Luis Torres were very reasonable on the deal and just plain nice to work with.Many of the other dealerships had unbelievable pricing but much fine print riddled with hidden fees + pressure, pressure, pressure. Moreover, a number of them were extremely unpleasant to deal with. Hats off to Jennifer and the team for the hard work and top notch deal on our new 2013 Honda. We will be recommending them to our friends/family. RC

Second time I visited this dealership in the last 2 months. First time I purchase a Honda Sport for myself. This time I leased a Honda Sport for my wife. Very very happy with the people and more important with the overall experience. No smoke and mirrors, just straight talk and cordial people. Sammy Beshay is a sweetheart and very knowledgeable who makes the entire process a pleasure. I know he's there to sell cars, but he's looking out for your interest as well. He's a very good guy!!! I would highly recommend him if you're in the market. I have to say that in a dealership the person I typically have had problems with in the past is the "finance guy". That's where fees show up that I didn't know about or agree to. Not at DCH! No surprises and Vipin Rishi is a class guy who doesn't try to push things on you that you don't want. I enjoyed his easy going style and the speed at which he expedites the entire process. Great job!

My husband and I just purchased our 7th Honda from Robert Levine -- wouldn't want to go anywhere else! Robert gave us a great deal and made sure we had a complete understanding of our CRV before we left the dealership. Robert is very easy to work with and never high pressure. We hope he doesn't retire any time soon, because I don't know who else we'd want to buy from!! Thanks Robert!

He made us feel very comfortable while we were signing all the papers. Great experience at your dealership! We would come back to your dealership in the future. Thanks for everything!

Had a very bad experience with DCH academy honda. I feel we have been cheated big time. They sold us certified vehicle with all 4 damaged tires, some rattling noise everytime we but the brakes on or take a turn, which they said it could be coz of a small ball inside the drivers seat. which i belived, but the noise is still there. i am ready to live with the noise but to go thru the hassle of getting it serviced by DCH academy honda. i had to go thru 3 days of hassle frustration loss of wages to make them realize their mistake abt the tires. Finally they agreed to pay half the amt needed to change all the tires. They told me to come next day at 10:00am to pick my vehicle. After taking off from work i reached there with my collegue who dropped me to their service center. When i enquired about my odyssey they said it is not ready. I asked them the reason they said we dont know. After showing them my frustration the manager came and put all the blame on Ruben and said he did not inform them that it has to be ready by 10:00am. They did not have a courtsey to even make a single call and let me know that it was going to take time to replace the tires. Someone from the service dept suggested i go and complain to the servicee mgr pete. when i reached to his office close to the new car office i told him about all the issues and frustration i went thru. all he kept saying is i am sorry there is nothing we can do. he told it is his showroom, his office and he does not want any scene there. i asked so you dont care abt the customers once u sell them the car?? he said i dont want to comment abt that. Anyways tired and frustrated i choose to wait and get it fixed the same day. They got my car with the tires and then i checked they did not do the allignment which was told to me my ruben and they would do. Again i had wait an hour for it. From 10am in the morning till2 pm in the afternoon i was there waiting ti get my car fixed which was purchased 2 months ago. Had i not taken my car for oil change to close by mechanic shop "princeton garage"i wouldnt have come to know that my the damaged tires which i was told they were dangerous to drive on highway . Anyways at around 2 pm i finally got my car done. I paid the amt and took my car. As a customer i would like to trust the dealership where i get my car from as i risk my kids safety putting them in that car. I would not recommend anyone to buy or get their car services from DCH. I request them to please pause for a moment and hear the customer. Dont turn your back on the customer as soon as u sell the car. Please try to be honest and perfect in what you do because ur imperfections and lies will cost the customers big time and as middle class hard working citizen i can only say we cannot afford to pay the price for ur imperfections and lies.

This is my 7th time buying a new car and I must say that, this was by far the simplest and best experience. My salesperson Essam Beshay was very real and yet professional. He understood the need to keep my monthly payments affordable. I was given VIP treatment throughout the entire process and even told Sam and the manager that it made me uneasy because I'm not use to car salesmen looking out for my best interest. It's usually the other way around. He even made sure that my new car had a full tank of gas before I drove off. I would definitely refer anyone who doesn't want the stress of having to bargain to go in and ask for Sam Beshay. I got a good deal on a CR-V even though my credit was not that great. Love Love Love my new ride. The savings on gas is unbelievable!

Joe is certainly one of the best sales guys I have dealt with. No pressure, happy to let me drive multiple cars to work out which one I liked best. Didn't hassle me when I didn't buy on the first visit, just genuinely seemed to want me to be comfortable with a deal that would work for both of us. After the sale, he was equally helpful, delivering the car to my house when I had to work late. I would definitely recommend working with Joe & DCH if you're in the market for a vehicle.

I had a great experience purchasing a Honda Ridgeline at DCH Academy Honda. Paul was very friendly and worked with me to come up with a price for the truck I was comfortable with. He was very professional and took the time to go over every aspect of the truck after I purchased it. I am very pleased with my purchase.

I just had the pleasure of leasing another vehicle with DCH Academy Honda. I worked with Joseph Guzzo who was an absolute pleasure to work with. He is one of the nicest men I have ever met. He was extrememly responsive to my calls, and did whatever he could to put me in the vehicle I wanted. I would recommend him, as well as this dealership to anyone, as I have in the past! The friendliness of the whole staff was really great, as well as the whole overall experience.

After my last car gave out i was looking for a quality new car. I visited various dealerships including a different honda dealer who would not even quote me a price unless i showed my credit card and gave 500 dollar to show i was serious. I then went online to research the various models and makes as well as visiting the bbb website to find a reputable dealership. I had a basic idea of what the various prices were and what a fair price should be and discovered dch honda had an a+ bbb rating. Many other dealerships are not even registered with the bbb. I came in and was introduced to joe guzzo. I immediately felt comfortable and was warmly greeted. Joe asked what i was interested in and gave me a fair price on the car i was looking for. I was so thankful i did not have to go through the haggling that i knew other dealerships would put me through. Joe also went through the differences between leasing and financing and answered any other questions i had. Everything he told me verbally was also written and he went through each item step by step and explained what each charge was for. There was no pressure to add extras. I was told what my options were and it was up to me whether to accept them or not. Joe then took me to look at the various colors available. I was also shown the area where repairs and oil changes are done. This is a very professinal and customer service oriented dealership. After we decided on the price i was taken to the finance office. Every detail of the purchase was written and explained and all questions answered. There was no extra person coming in trying to sell me things i may not need just to boost their bottom line. I left with my new 2013 civic and am very happy i chose dch. I feel it is important not only to get a good price on a car but to also have a reputable dealer who will fix any issues that may come up. Overall i would highly reccomend joe guzzo and dch honda to anyone looking for a car. You will be treated fairly and without pressure. I have already told many of my friends to go to dch when they are ready for a car.

I went to DCH Academy Honda to inquire about trading in my 2010 VW Passat. Paul Papis the salesman that greeted me.He was very helpful in answering all my questions. I feel he was very honest and very upfront. He treated me fair, and in my opinion hey gave me a very fair price on my trade in. Once I made the deal, leasing a 2013 Accord Sport Paul spent a great deal of time reviewing all the vehicle functions. I have purchased many new cars in the past and some deals were very high pressure. There was no pressure from this dealership and they were very pleasant to deal with. I would recommend this dealership to my friends.

This is the third new car we have bought at DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge, and our experiences have been positive each time. This time we knew what car we wanted, and had already been to another dealer closer to home. When we visited the first dealer, we were first told that we would prefer a different car, and then that it would be impossible to get the car we wanted with a manual transmission - or in a color that we liked. We were so frustrated that we were prepared to look at Toyotas and Subarus and give up on a Honda entirely. However, fortunately, we decided to make a phone call to DCH Academy Honda first. Mark Kamatoy provided helpful and very specific information about availability and pricing over the phone, assured us that he would help us get the car we wanted, and arranged a time for us to visit and test drive. Mark introduced us to Joe Koedros, who took us out to drive what would become our new car the next day. Like Mark, Joe was informative and helpful. He also proved to be friendly and interesting to talk to while we waited for some of our paperwork to be completed. Everyone we dealt with was warmly professional. Even though it was busy in the showroom both evenings, we were not rushed. We particularly appreciated that there were no negotiation games and there was no pressure to purchase options or packages that we didn't want. So, with no arguments or apparent difficulties, Mark and Joe sold us the car we wanted, with the transmission we wanted, in a color we liked, and at a price that was lower than the theoretical price we were quoted by another dealer for a car that wouldn't even have been exactly what we wanted.

I received wonderful service from Mr. Koedros. The other staff I delt with were wonderful as well. He was knowledgeable and accommodated my needs for the new vehicle I was searching for. He worked hard on my deal to ensure I received a vehicle that met my spectations. He was great with my daughter also while we waited to finalize the purchase of my new vehicle. I would recommend everyone I know to Mr. Koedros as well as to DCH Academy Honda. I truly had a wonderful experience purchasing my new vehicle and I love it!

I had given 5 star rating to this dealer earlier based on my purchase experience with the Sale departmentBut now 0 rating for the Finance Department's customer service. Below is my bad experience.When I bought new Honda Accord, I also got Service Contract and Road Hazard coverage. After reading the Terms & Conditions of the agreement, I didn't find it worth for my car and I decided to cancel it, It was mentioned in the agreement that if I cancel it before 30 days, I'll get the full refund.I called the Dealer and mentioned that I want to cancel, I also asked them whether the Finance person who sold the contract to me is available or not ? They mentioned that I can just come over and any one from Finance can assist me for the cancellation. When I went there, the finance person told me he can't process the cancellation and only the person who sold the contract can process it and she was on leave that day. I had to go back and come again next day when she is available. She cancelled it and mentioned to me that the full amount will be credited to my Car Finance account. Cancellation certificate mentioned that the processing will take 3 to 4 weeks.After 4 weeks the amount was not credited, I called up and asked them, they said it will take 6 weeks. After 6 weeks still not credited, again called them up and they said it will get credited and not to worry. Now 8 weeks passed and still not credited. When I called up again, they were busy with other customer. I left voice message, no response for that. I left message at Front Desk person to inform the Finance person about the situation and return the call. Still no response. When I called again luckily I could speak with Finance person, I explained it is almost 2 months now the amount is not credited and as per the cancellation certificate it was supposed to get credited in 4 weeks. I told, as it was not credited to Finance account, I am still paying the interest on that amount. They told me that they will look into it and give me a call back. But till now I've not received any call from them. I am still paying the interest on the amount which I cancelled 2 months back. I don't know whether they are purposefully delaying this so that they can earn on the interest payment from me.

Robert Levine(salesman) was professional and made sure my buying experience was great. He was not pushy and answered all my questions. Anyone looking to buy a new car and wants a positive experience, please make sure you go to Academy Honda and ask for Robert. He will make sure you are treated right and give you the best deal. I compared prices from 5 other Honda dealerships and Robert's deal was the best. John N(sales manager) made sure he put together a deal that worked with my budget and treated me like I was a member of the family. One last person I wish to mention was Vipin R(business manager), he was able to get me a great rate and made sure our loan was processed quickly. Most dealership make you wait numerous hours to do the paperwork, but not here. I came in, went over my truck and was in and out having fun with my new honda. Great deal and wonderful service from the team at Academy Honda.

My wife and I had been looking for a CR-V for some time. We finally found the perfect one at DCH. It was a little ways away (we're from Philadelphia) but speaking to Joe Lisciandri on the phone made us confident our trip would be worth it. We were able to agree on a price over the phone with little hassle. I very much enjoyed his friendly but no nonsense style. When we did get out to take the car for a test drive there were no surprises and we left with the car that night. I would definitely recommend DCH Honda for anyone looking for a quality car at a reasonable price. We will be back when it is time for the next car.

While working with Joe K in the purchase of my new car, I felt abondoned once I closed the deal and I gave him my check. He was supposed to go over the car with me before leaving (following the car's detailing), but instead took another customer and left us waiting in the waiting room. When he did come back to me, he suggested that I return on Friday when I was to have a remote starter installed. I told him that my husband would not be available Friday (my husband was with me at that time), and again left us waiting in the waiting room. In the end we left with no overview of the car.That following Friday, I went to the service department for my appointment of the installation of the remote starter (10 a.m.). Unfortunately, the mechanic on duty said he had no appointment for me. I told him Joe K made the appointment and with that, the mechanic went to address the appointment with Joe K. Joe K. then came to see me, apologized for the mix up (said he had confirmed the appointment with the Service Department), and that they would now come to my home personally for the installation, which was finally completed, but still did not do a review of the car with me.Closing the deal means start to finish and unfortunately as soon has I delivered my check, DCH Adademy Honda moved on to the next customer. I believe there is some room for improvment on customer service.

I was referred to your dealership through the Costco program after having a bad experience at another Honda dealership in Northern New Jersey. Ms. Galluccio called me back immediately after the weekend to set up an appointment for late morning on Monday. In person, she was pleasant and gracious, without any of the hard-sell methods that can be so irritating. She listened to me, verified the cars I'd located on the Internet, and showed me whatever I needed to see. The price was right on the car I wanted and Ms. Galluccio tried to work with me on anything I needed. I bought a 2010 Honda Accord LX on the spot. Financing could not have been easier. I traded in my 1999 Honda Accord EX-L and drove away in my new-looking, pre-certified vehicle. I'd recommend Ms. Galluccio for her gentle, direct manner and DCH Academy Honda on Route 9 anytime.

First time Honda buyers. Very efficient service. We arrived on a rainy Thursday night and left with the car we wanted and the deal we were looking for. Paul was patient and willing to meet our needs by driving us to another lot to see car colors and never suggesting that he couldn't find what we wanted. Willing to not only get what we needed but make it convenient for us to pick up the car when we needed it and arrange for our transfer of insurance and plates efficiently. Most importantly patiently explained the way the car worked and offered to be available when we needed to set up our phones, etc.
Disappointed in May

I do not like leaving poor feedback for a business, but I do feel as though my experience at DCH Academy Honda did not live up to this dealer's reputation. This is my local store, but I was more than willing to travel just a short distance to receive a better, no-hassle deal from a different NJ Honda dealer. The salesman who worked with me did not listen to me. I had to repeatedly say what model car I was interested in and what package I wanted, to the point where I had to ask him to cross out incorrect information on my customer profile regarding color and package. The salesman pushed purchase papers at me to sign twice, even though I had told him that I would not be buying the car until about 2 weeks later. He told me he probably couldn't get the color I wanted in, but that I should put a deposit down anyway just to assure that if they could order the car, I wouldn't lose it to another purchaser. Based upon the dealership's overall reputation, I hope that this salesman is fairly new to the team and I hope that he receives better training. I knew I would be purchasing a Honda from somewhere last month, but I would not spend my money at a dealership where everything I said was ignored.

Walked in to showroom and was greeted by Erich Tam, who with no pressure whatsoever, answered all my questions and was very informative.Never expected to be driving out with a new car the same day but before I knew it I was signing a new purchase contract for a 2013 Civic EX.Got a very fair deal and the whole experience from start to end was a pleasure. I highly recommend this dealership and Erich in particular, you will not be disappointed.

We have a good experience at this dealer and with Akram Ali. He was friendly and fair. We had gotten about 8-10 Internet quotes ahead of time and I found this to be helpful. Their price was the lowest and we made some small negotiations after that. We were happy with our deal and I love my new car. Even once we got the car home, SCH Honda was helpful and professional in getting some additional features installed (autostart, LoJack). They even drove me to work, which was helpful.

They made the buying experience enjoyable. Joe Koedros was helpful, and answered all our questions. He really minimized the amount of time I had to do paperwork. This dealership is the Costco dealer for Honda in the area and their pricing was excellent. I was pleasantly surprised by how warm the people were, and how they didn't rush you, but didn't waste your time either. I recommend Academy Honda and Joe Koedros if you want an honest, hassle free experience.

From the moment I walked into the dealership, it was obvious that it was going to be a great experience. Any question I had was answered, and regardless of how many options I was considering, I was presented all of them with great patience and expertise. Akram's test drive and vehicle explanation was amazing, as both my Dad and I took the Crosstour for a test drive and he explained feature that he and I both would individually find appealing, and presented the facts to the both of us together. Chris was very knowledgeable and oversaw the leasing process, ensuring that it went smooth and the trade-in that we made was handled with respect. Vipin made the paperwork side of things quick and painless, but made sure that he took his time to explain everything. Overall, it was an incredible customer service and buying experience.

My sales and leasing consultant was Khalil A. Quraishi. I leased three cars through him at Dch academy and was very pleased. He was very thorough and kind with my wife and I. In three years I will be back for another lease and will ask for Khalil. I love my Honda Accord. Thank You Phyllis and Anthony DelRosso

Although I have dealt with many dealerships in the past, this was my first experience at DCH Academy. I went here because consumer reports car buying service directed me and their online price quote was excellent. I expected there to be some haggling and extended sales pitch. However, everything went very smoothly. Even picking up the car on a Saturday (which I have had the unfortunate experience at other dealers lasting hours), was very quick and painless. The salesman, Sam Beshay, was a gentlemen and not your typical high pressure, pushy salesman. I highly recommend them!

I went into DCH Academy Honda in search of a new lease, as my '05 Accord with 200k+ miles was nearing its end. Joe Yankunas was our saleperson, and let me say how WONDERFUL he was! He was always very professional and absolutely had our best interest at heart. I was delightfully surprised how far Joe went to make us happy. The rest of the staff at DCH Academy Honda is equally as friendly and are devoted to making their customers happy! I bought my last car from here, my current one, and I will come back again in the future! Thank you!!

My family has bought a number of cars from Paul over the years. He has always been honest and a pleasure to work with. When it was time for me to get a new car, I wanted to get it from Paul. He recently started working at DCH Honda so I went there to talk to him. As always, he was honest and fair and took care of me. I was also very impressed with the dealership and their efficient process of getting a new car (Thanks Lily Li). I would recommend DCH to anyone who wants to buy a Honda and more importantly, I would recommend that they buy a car from Paul Papis.

During the past 17 years I was a faithful Toyota customer. Mr. Robert Levine, Senior Sales Representative, certainly surpassed any of my previous experiences. Robert was courteous, knowledgeable, professional and friendly. My relative, Robert Palmieri, has been suggesting the Honda experience to me for a long time. Everything about my experience was exceptional. I am so excited that my age of 72, I now have a blue tooth. My children find this very amusing! My gratitude to both Robert Levine and my relative's introduction to your wonderful DCH Auto Group.

I originally was in contact with Mark through email, as I was on a desperate hunt to get the best deal for the 2013 accord. Out of the 10 dealerships that I contacted, Mark was the first person to contact me with the best deal. I live in Brooklyn, so this dealership is out of my way. However, the deal was so great, I could not pass it up. When I came in Mark referred me to Joe Yankunas immediately to assist me. Joe was amazing! My boyfriend and my father definitely gave him a hard time, as they were skeptical after having a terrible experience with a Brooklyn dealership. However, Joe was patient every step of the way and answered evey single question we had. The only less than positive thing I would say is that we had to wait a long time to see the finance manager. However, it was Memorial Day and it seemed like every person waited for that day to purchase a car. Regardless, he was really helpful and did not push us into committing to something we weren't comfortable with. I ended up purchasing the car for so much less than what my local dealership originally offered. It was definitely worth the drive for me!!

This has been the second car I purchased from DCH/Academy Honda and the fourth car I bought from Paul Papis. Paul is a pleasure to work with, which is the reason that I followed him from the previous dealership to DCH/Academy. He is not like the stereotypical pushy car salesman. He is straight forward, but also laid back. He is able to work with the customer to make them happy without going back and forth to the manager a dozen times. DCH/Academy Honda is nice and the staff is extremely friendly and always pass by with a greeting. It was a pleasure to purchase my car from Paul and I am looking forward to my next purchase next year.

I bought 3 cars from Paul when he worked at David Michael Honda in Freehold and my sales process with him was always pleasurable. This is why I sought him out and found out he was working at DCH Academy Honda when I was looking to buy a new Odeyssey. He is very respectible and will always go above and beyond what you expect from any salesmen. He makes going through the sales process of buying a new car easy. I would recommend him to anyone I know looking to buy a Honda.

I would like to take this opportunity to personally thank Paul Papis for all his help in making my auto shopping experience pleasant. He did a great job working with me to reach an affordable leasing agreement for my 2013 Honda Civic. Paul was sincere, friendly and answered all of my questions without hesitation. I was very pleased with his hard work and feel comfortable recommending him to my family and friends. Thanks again Paul.

I leased a new 2013 honda accord from DCH Academy honda and Paul Papis last week. This is my third lease from Paul two were from his old location. I didn't know what to expect at DCH because it was my first purchase from them. I just like to say that this was my easiest purchase ever. From the time I walked in right to leaving the business office. Husain the business manger was staight and right to the point he wasn't high pressure like most business mangers are. Once again thanks Paul and Husain for making a normally painfull process very easy and fun.

Joe was amazing! I had a really bad experience at Joyce Honda in Dover and walked into DCH expecting the same. It was a rainy day out, so did not expected to be greated by a sales rep, but when I walked in, the girl at the desk was happy to great me and Joe was the first one to come speak with me. Joe is a no BS kind of guy, and that is what I loved about him. You can tell he genually cares about his customers and is willing to go above and beyond to do his best in guaranteeing customer satisfaction. He is also very personable. Joe was easy to communicate and it was not just a sales pitch. I really appreciated how I put him through the ringer with checking out multiple cars and getting me to realize the pros and cos of the two I narrowed my search down to (Civic SI and Accord). When it came down to me choosing the Accord, Joe went back and forth with me and his manager to provide me the best possible rate he could. We agreed to terms, and I'm even getting a moonroof without compromising leather interior and heated seats and paying a few grand extra for an upgrated version of the Accord. Joe deserves a 5 across the board. The only reason why I am not saying the price is great, because it was more than I wanted to spend, but still very managable. Again, this is no fault of Joes as he worked on dropping the price as low as he could. If I wanted to spend less, I could have went for a differen vehicle. Overall, I am 100% satisfied with my experience at DCH. From the moment I walked into the building, to working with Joe, to pulling out of the lot with my new car, I experienced luxery at its best. Kudos!!!

DCH Academy is a top rated dealership. From the minute you contact the dealer, via email, walk through the door to the end of the sale and the follow up about my purchase you are treated with great care. Joe Koedros was the best. He was personable and friendly. However, what made him extrodinary was the fact he showed great sensitivity and attention to make sure I did not feel rushed into a decision. He made sure I was content and satisfied with the choices I made. I would definitely recommend DCH Academy!

I bought a 2011 Honda CRV at Academy Honda in Old Bridge this Memorial Day weekend and was very pleased with my overall experience. Salesperson Joe Lisciandri took care of me, and never once did I feel pressured or that I was being "closed". That is important to me. Joe even got my son and I a hot dog and soda from the company cookout on the premesis. I thought he car was fairly priced, slightly below blue book value. Terry Batia hooked me up with an additional warranty so, over and above Honda's reknown quality, I've got peace of mind on the car for years to come. Thanks guys!

I was very fortunate to have Veronica Galluccio as sales consultant andDmitry Rybakov as business manager in purchasing my Pre-Certified HondaAccord. They individually and collectively dealt with me with the higheststandards of professionalism, honesty, integrity, patience, andunderstanding my needs. This is my fourth Pre-Owned Honda, but the firsttime I went to DCH Academy Honda. I searched my previous dealers, but wasnot satisfied. I logged onto DCH web-site, sent an email of my needs, andVeronica was immediately on the case to meet (and exceed) my needs whilekeeping within my price range. At every aspect of the transaction,including my trade in, the team treated us as if we were a valuable, longterm customer, even before we finalized on and purchase. I sincerelyrecommend considering DCH and Veronica and Dmitry in future considerations

I went to two Honda dealerships before being referred to Joe from Jackson, NJ at DCH Academy. He's very nice and always smiling. He made me feel good coming so far. He was referred by family that purchased from him. It was a pleasure because he stayed in the loop throughout my sell. I was nervous, but him and Veronica were great. I was treated very nice and when I arrived for my appointment I was greeted with smiles. That mean so much especially since I traveled all the way from Pennsylvania. I will definitely refer friends and family to this dealership. At one point I felt I was frustrating the young lady, but she still was professional and kept a smile. I will never buy a different car I'm so happy. I hope they keep in touch because I felt like family. :o) Thank you so much for your kindness.

Sammy made the whole deal very smiple for me by handling alot of things most wouldn't. I even got calls and e-mails after I drove off the lot to make sure everything was ok and to see if there was any other questions i had. I would deffinetly recommend Sammy and DCH Academy Honda to anyone in the market for a Honda.Joe from staten island.

Once I paid for oil change and tire rotation and tire rotation was not done. At my next oil change they promised to do tire rotation without charge. However while I took my car to a local service station for next oil they found that my oil cap is missing and my tire seems never rotated and the front tires need to be changed. I saw the difference between the front and back tires and clearly the back tire looked relatively new. I feel bad as a consumer knowing that there is good place for me to go.

This is our second new car purchased with DCH in 5 years. We were first recommended by our friend and we have been recommending DCH to our friends and families, who are all satisfised with their purchases. Erich, our sales, is very professional but not pushy in any ways. We feel very comfortable dealing with him. He answered all of our questioned in details and even provided extra information that we didn't even think of. He is excellent and we'll definitely continue to recommend him to others. BTW, their service center is excellent as well. They have extended hours and services are always delivered professionaly and promptly.

With DCH, I had far better experience than the other car dealers. The overall car buying procedure with all the dealers was painstaking. I personally think that it should be very smooth, with no hassle, and straight forward low cost. It should not have any hidden incentives that we do not know about.We bought our car from DCH because of we take out car for service since last 7 years to them and we were happy with their quality of work.I wanted to give full credit to Mark k and Khalil Q. without them i am sure DCH would not earn my business.

I will come back to akram for any future purchases and highly recommend him for anyone looking to purchase a vehicle.I

This was my first time every buying a car. I have heard so many horror stories about dealerships that do not work with you or worse, care salesmen that are either extremely pressuring or very smooth talking, unethical, and just down right greedy. I was originally looking at the Toyota Rav-4, as I was already a Toyota customer. My parents had purchased a Toyota Corolla for me while I was in college becoming a Physician Assistant. I never had a problem with the car or with Toyota. However, last year I graduated, got a job in an Emergency Room, and have now been making my own money for about 1 year and figured its time for my hard work to literally pay off. In order to really emphasize how wonderful my experience was at Honda... I have to tell you about my experience with Toyota. I was there getting my Corolla serviced and went to the showroom to check out the Rav 4. Upon entering, one of the car salesmen saw me, approached me, and asked if he could help me. I was excited; I told him I wanted to check out the Rav 4. Now I do not know if it was the fact that I was a 23 year old girl in a sweatshirt jacket, I don't know if the salesman was tired, or if I didn't directly say I was in the market for a new car. Whatever the reason, the dealer looked at me and said "Oh okay. There's one over there" and pointed to the Rav 4 and left me to see it by myself. I walked over and was looking at the sticker; when the salesman saw this, THEN he approached me and saw an interest in me. Once he knew I was serious about a car, he put so much pressure on me I felt like I couldn't breath. I told him multiple times I would not be buying a car today as I wanted to discuss it with my parents and boyfriend, all of whom have purchased cars and signed contracts, etc. He did not hear that; He wanted me to leave in a car. When I asked about incentives or altering the price, he shut me down right away with no incentives and no possible movement on the price. I left discouraged and thinking that I would not be getting a car any time soon. I called my mother who encouraged me to stop at DCH Academy Honda, where my uncle had gotten a few of his cars and where my parents had looked 5 years ago at the Civic, but purchases the Corolla instead simply based on price.I walked in and from the moment I got there, it was different. I was greeted at the door by a very nice young woman, who paged overhead for a salesman. Joe Koedros walked out with a smile and shook my hand. Told me his job was to put my in a Honda, of my choice, and at a price that works for me. He started out showing me the lowest Trim level of the CR-V, which made me feel like there was no pressure. I informed him that although I was extremely interested, I would not be buying a car without my parents. He told me he understood, but would give all the information I needed to talk to my parents. He also just talked to me about life, what kind of work I did, my family; and he told me about his life and family; felt like he was an uncle of mine. He let me test drive the mid-trim level and the top-trim level CR-V. Before leaving, Lily approached me and gave me more of the information I needed regarding insurance and finances. I left excited. About an hour or so later, Joe called me and gave me some more incentives. He checked in almost once a day to see where I was at and spoke to my mother. He gave me a great deal and made me feel like he wanted to work with me without pressuring me. I could go on and on about how wonderful my experience was. I am extremely happy with my choice to stop at DCH Academy Honda and was more than pleased with Joe as a salesman. I cannot wait until I hear someone say they need a new car, so I can refer them to DCH, especially Joe.

Decided I wanted a Civic before going to DCH Academy, so getting the best price was my main goal. Went to 5 other Honda dealers, some brushed me off quickly, others wouldn't negotiate, Academy was the only one that was persistent but not pushy. On the third try we agreed on a price and I bought the car.

On Monday May 13th, I visited the Old Bridge dealership because I have worked with Akram Ali at other dealerships and went to this dealership because he works there. He is one of a kind, full of experience and knowledge about Honda, and gave us a wonderful tour that included the utmost detail. He made sure that he explained everything and anything needed to bring our satisfaction to the highest level. His professionalism and skill made my shopping experience perfect. He went above and beyond to show us all the new features of the car I just bought. I would like to thank him and thank DCH Academy Honda for providing such an amazing experience. I can guarantee you will see us again in the next few weeks to buy yet another Honda thanks to Akram.

On April 27, 2013 I entered DCH Honda Academy in Old Bridge and was immediately greeted by the Receptionist who was very friendly and professional. Soon after that, Sam Beshay greeted us with a warm and friendly handshake and introduced himself to my husband and myself. From then on we felt very comfortable with him.We told him exactly what we were looking for: a new car and preferably a Pilot. He quickly escorted us to the lot where all the new vehicles are housed and taking his time with us, showed the vehicles that were available for sale. I got into a Honda Pilot and drove it around the lot and also took it for a spin in the surrounding neighborhood. My husband took it as well for a test drive and fell in love with the Pilot. Prior to test driving the car, I had a special request for Sam and that was to test drive a Pilot that I wouldn't put any miles on it if I'm going to buy it. Sam agreed wholeheartedly.So after our test drive, we decided that we would not want any other car but the Pilot. Mind you, we were at three other Honda dealers (Planet Honda and Madison Honda) that same morning before coming into our neighborhood Honda dealer. After deciding on a color for our Pilot, Sam took us to the warehouse where we were able to view all Honda vehicles and found my "BEAUTIFUL HONDA PILOT" and in the color I wanted.Sam was so patient with us and so professional from the viewing of the vehicles, to the processing of our sales application and all the way through until we drove out with our Honda Pilot. He answered any and all of my questions in relations to the purchase of the car and the financing process with such familiarity. Needless to say, we received a great deal on the purchase of our Pilot as well as an incredibly low interest rate.Thank you Sam for your courteous and professional demeanor. If we should ever again be in the market for another Honda, (we have two other Honda vehicles already from the same dealer), we will surely look for Sam Beshay. Sam should be commended for a job well done!Thank you Sam.Carmen and Hugo

The salesperson was very pessimistic and did nothing to help meet our budget and made an insulting proposition on our trade in. This is the second time I went there for price comparison and last time the other dealership (Joyce) gave me the same lease for $100 a month less. The 50 year old manager came over and apparently never heard a curse before because he was offended when I used it to describe the "deal" they were proposing. I told him about the price difference and he laughed and arrogantly chuckled "we sell 300 more cars a month than Joyce" and walked away. So we left. We were there with checkbook in hand ready to buy a new Pilot and they did not care. I left completely disappointed and insulted. Anyone looking to purchase a Honda in the area, don't waste your time there, as they do not care if they get your business. Try Freehold or Joyce!

I got a pre owned certified Honda civic 2010. I am pretty much satisfied with the experience. Joe Lisciandri is the sales person. He is friendly and helped me with the concerns i have and allowed me to test drive the cars i wished even after the store hours. He followed me up to know when i will be coming and when i went there the paper work is fast. Price is a bit high but car is in good condition and they are really good. You can expect a great customer service here. Prior to this dealer ship i went to paragon honda and it was terrible. I will definetly recommend this dealership. Thank You!!

Erich is a very friendly, experiended and pleasure to work with. I did shop with 2 other dealers before and knew exactly what color and trim I wanted. Erich provided me an email price quote with the detail break down and one of the best price I got. After work, the same date I got the price quote, I stopped by the dealer office and would like to see the car. It took me just a little bit over 2 hours from paper work, finance and able to pick up my new car the same date. My wife and I were very happy with the car we purchased. I would recommend Erich and the dealership to any of my friends who looking for Honda's car purchase.

I am part of Consumer reports.. so I used their service not understanding how it would work. Well, while I used the service I doubt I ever will again. Mark immediately called me explained who he was and what I was looking for. I explained I had to idea what I was actually doing through consumer reports, but I wanted a Honda Pilot, it HAD TO BE BLACK and I was looking to do it quickly. I had a price from another dealership also. He told me to him some time and he would get back to me with his best price. He did! Same Day! Needless to say it was a great price. I waited a day since other dealerships were calling me back, but although they all met Mark's price, I just felt he was honest and also called me first and followed up exactly like he said. I went into the dealership expecting the run around, even though Mark assured me that would not happen and the quote would be honored. Joe immediately met me at the door. I explained my situation and Joe got the manager involved to get the paperwork and then went to work. I wasn't sure how he would react, I mean, it was an internet sale, whatever that mean, I wasn't sure if he gets paid, credit, whatever. But Joe was professional from the start, treated me like I was his customer and walked me through everything. Paper work was a breeze, He got my trade appraised and even made sure they covered the entire amount I owed. He took my credit application and explained that all we spoke about is contingent on my credit, he was very personable and professional, saying multiple times how much DCH is a great dealership and how they are honest. Well I felt that. He explained, since it was late, that the car was not PDI'ed. But we would finish the paperwork that evening and pick up the car next day. He introduced to Hussain and that went very well. QUICK, but well. He also pulled no punches, which is all I ask. They then introduced to Akram and that he would deliver the car to me and explain. Next day, I called Akram to let him know when I would be there. He called me back to confirm and then I explained it would be an hour earlier, which was no problem. I got to the dealership with my wife, I forgot to mention the car is for her. Akram met us at door, proceeded to give us some paperwork and then got the plates off my trade. He then led us to the car and explained every feature. Never once going to fast, never once trying to rush. He was great. He even mentioned that Joe called him a few times that day to make sure all was set with my car, JOE WAS OFF that day. He answered question after question and made my wife feel very comfortable in her new car, even synced her phone. So all I did at this point was explain in detail what happened and I hope whoever reads this gets the point that everything was GREAT! But maybe this will help bring it home. My father needs a Pilot, I will be eventually getting a Accord and it goes without saying what dealership I will be going to and which people I will be contacting. I thank you all for a great experience. I hope to be working with you for a long time to come.

[Latest Review]As promised, they provided one more master key with key code. I am happy now and would recommend this dealer to everyone.thanks Ruben and Peter to resolve this issue very smoothly.[Second Comments]I would like revise my previous commands about DCH Used car center, as I received a call from Sales Manager Arcila, Ruben and Modzelewski, Peter stating that they ready to make arrangements to provide one more master key (Ignition key with Remote) and Key Number Tag at free of cost (They sent email confirmation too). Ruben did ask apologized for the mistake happened and listened my concerns completely.Thanks Ruben and Peter for promptly response. I am ready give you complete positive feedback if the issues have been resolved smoothly. [First previous comments]Last week I went to DCH used car sales in old bridge. Sales person Gerry Bruno was showing the cars. While seeing the cars he was not honest enough to give all details about the car. The car which I did test drive and liked, doesnt have two master keys, but he didnt tell me this during dealing and he didnt even tell before making the final settlement this week. The sales person Gerry Bruno just gave only one master and valet key, the moment i took the car from delivery line. I was really surprised and unhappy. He simply said 'it has only onemaster key. Some cars has few and other cars dont'. I didnt expect this reply from sales person of reputed dealer show room. I didnt have any other option other than taking the car as I paid them entire amount and I was eagerly waiting for 2 hours (till 9.10 PM) with my wife and baby to take the car. Others please make sure that the cars which they showing have all required accessory which is supposed to be for that model. if it all that car missing some, have that in mind while doing price negotiation. I believe after seeing my comments someone from dealer give me the proper response and make necessary arrangement to provide the master key.

I would absolutely recommend DCH academy Honda of Old bridge for anyone who is looking to purchase a new or used car. I just purchased from them a very nice CPO Honda Civic for my daughter as a graduation present and they gave me a great deal on it. I dealt with Mr. Essam Beshay who was extremely helpful and pulled all the stops to make sure I ended up with the best car for my daughter. He even made sure to recommend the tire hazard warranty which I wish I knew about for my last car. I couldn't be happier with the service I received and even more satisfied that my daughter is going off to college in a reliable vehicle which is fully warrantied against virtually everything. I would definitely recommend DCH academy honda and Mr. Beshay for your next car.

I leased a Honda Civic yesterday from Academy Honda in Oldbridge, NJ. From the moment I walked in to the moment I left, I was treated exceptionally. Everyone at Academy was extremely professional, helpful, and courteous. Robert Levine was the salesman and he did an amazing job. For two weeks, I went to countless car dealerships and was often insulted by their offers and disappointed in their lack of professionalism in knowledge about their product and competitors products. Robert walked me through the process step by step and demonstrated immense patience. I was truly amazed by his knowledge of the Honda Civic as he explained each and every individual feature of the car. I was offered a great price and I never felt even once that i was being taken advantage of like the other car dealerships. Additionally, Lily Li was extremely helpful in helping me getting approved. I've worked hard to build my credit back up in the past few years, and Lily did a fantastic job in helping me get approved at the price I wanted. I highly recommend Robert and Academy Honda to anyone looking to purchase a car.

This is the 5th or 6th car that I have purchased from Robert Levine. I trust him! Not only did he get me the best value for my trade, but he never pressures me or rushes my decision. He is thorough and believes in his product. I turn to him again and again because of his honesty, integrity, friendliness and patience. I would recommend DCH Academy Honda to all my relatives and friends and send them to Robert Levine!!

I PURCHASED A 2013 HONDA ACCORD SPORT, I CAN EVEN EXPLAIN HOW SATISFIED I AM WITH MY PURCHASE, ESPECIALLY MICHAEL SERRA AND STEVE CHUNG, THEY PROCESSED EVERYTHING SO FAST FOR ME. THE CAR I WANTED WASN'T IN THE LOT BECAUSE IT WAS A SPORT HONDA ACCORD, AND THE SALESMEN MICHAEL AND STEVE MADE IT A POINT TO CALL ANOTHER DEALER OR MANUFACTURE TO MAKE SURE THE VEHICLE I PURCHASED WAS AVAILABLE THE NEXT DAY. THEY CALLED ME THE NEXT DAY AND HAD MY CAR WASHED AND PREPPED FOR ME. I RECOMMEND ANYBODY THAT NEEDS A VEHICLE, I WILL ALWAYS RECOMMEND DCA ACADEMY HONDA, IN OLDBRIDGE NJ. THANK YOU VERY SATISFIED CUSTOMER.

Stephen at DCH Academy was an excellent help to me when purchasing a new car. When I went to the dealer they didn't have the exact model I wanted in stock, as the car is considerably rare in that color and trim model, but Stephen was able to get one for me. I got a great price on the car I wanted and I could not be any happier. The experience was rather painless and Stephen was incredibly friendly, informative and professional. I researched the car I wanted for about 7 months constantly, and he knew as much as I did, if not more, about the car, which was nice to talk to someone who actually knows the car they are selling, which is more than I can say for a few of the other local dealers. I highly recommend DCH Academy Honda and Stephen C. for his great work and a fantastic experience.

I had a wonderful experience dealing with DCH Academy Honda. I had first went to a Honda dealership that was closer to my house, but within 20 minutes of sitting down with the salesman I left. We then went over the DCH and from the minute I walked in the door I had already felt more welcome than any other dealership. When I went in on that Saturday I was dealing with Joe Yankunas. Joe was great. Very personal, very excited to show me any car of my choice and went to bat for me multiple times regarding my trade-in. On Tuesday when I went to get the car Joe was backed up with people (just goes to show how good he is), so he luckily passed me off to Akram who was just as great. Some people would mind being passed to another salesman, but I would rather be passed off than wait 2+ hours. Akram made the sale process very simple and easy to understand. I hope to have my car for at least 7 years, but when I'm ready for a new one I will definitely be going back there. I highly recommend to anyone looking not only for a reliable car (Honda's), but a team of people that actually care about the clients and put them first.

I purchased a 2010 Accord today WHAT AN EXCELLENT EXPERIENCE at DCH Honda Old Bridge. Ed Moy my salesman was awesome, also Rueben sales manger was great. You guys did an excellent good today and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this dealership 5 stars. Last Friday I test drove 7 cars and then narrowed it down to the one I liked. Not like other dealers Ed Moy was there with me all the way. I cannot say enough about him from explaining everything to me, going through all the numbers, just excellent.

Academy Honda service dept. is fantastic. The entire dept. is very friendly, courtious, and most of all honest. They are unique as they treat you as part of their family. When I bring my car in for service, I feel like I am family there. I have 3 Honda Civics, and 1 Acura Legend (1992), and they have installed such confidence that I bring all my cars there for service. I can't say enough about the service dept at Academy Honda, they are outstanding. They understand the customer requests and needs and definitely knows how to satisfy the customer.

Joseph Guzzo was our sales person. He took the time to demo three cars with us. A Civic, Accord Sport ans Accord LX. After driving the vehicles me and my wife decided to purchase the LX model. When it came to the decision of picking the colors the exterior color was easy to pick out, but deciding on the interior color was difficult because there wasn't an LX on the lot with the two available combinations to see in person. Joe took the time to see what cars were in the warehouse and found that there were two LX models there with both combinations to see; so he suggested to take a ride to the warehouse to see the cars which helped us to make a decision on the interior. We really appreciated Joe's time and patience to help us find the right car. Joe also negotiated with us fairly and answered all questions that we asked completely. Never did we feel pressure to make the purchase, or pick an option that we did not want. Tian was also very cooperative with the financing details and extended warranty information. He was also very polite and informative. We had purchased our first Honda Accord from Academy Honda in 1992, the service was good. I would say that the service has improved and that I would surely recommend Academy Honda to anyone looking to purchase a Honda and without a doubt I would recommend Joe Guzzo as the sales person to ask for. We just cannot say enough about how pleased we are with him and the way that he consulted us with the purchase. Thanks again Joe!

Back in 2005, my neighbor received a recommendation to buy a Civic for their son from DCH Academy Honda, specifically from Robert Levine. I went with my neighbor, and I was all ready to start the dreaded haggling process. To my surprise, however, we were quoted a more than fair price from the start, so no haggling was really necessary. When it came time to replace my wifes almost 19 year old Civic with another Honda in April 2013, I remembered the great buying experience I had with my neighbor in 2005 and looked no further than DCH Academy Honda and especially Robert Levine. The buying experience was pleasant and stress free with the right price quoted for the Honda Accord EX we wanted from the get-go. I would definitely recommend DCH Academy Honda and especially Robert Levine. He was very knowledgeable about the whole Accord line, and presented the features, and differences between the trim levels. He answered all of my questions in detail, and demonstrated the features before/during the test drive, and again when we arrived to pick up our new Accord. His pleasant demeanor and good nature made us very comfortable during the entire buying process.

I searched four different dealers and drove four different SUVs. When Steve Chung, at DCH Academy Honda, and I first sat down to discuss the Honda Pilot, I felt confident that Steve was giving me truthful answers and was addressing my personal concerns. We test drove the SUV Pilot on TWO separate occasions on two separate days. Mr. Chung did everything he could in a professional, kind, and business like manner. I have already recommended a friend to Steve Chung at DCH Academy Honda. Hopefully he contacts Steve. Totally professional and personable. Thank you Mr. A. BIANCO

I highly recommend this dealership based on the attention, knowledge and time spent with us while deciding on the car to lease. Our salesman was quite knowledgeable, friendly and attentive to all our concerns and needs in the the car we were interested in. He spent several hours going over the manuals, paperwork, and finally the interior of the car and its functions with us. The employees that weren't directly involved with us, were friendly while passing by us,and that was a good environment to be in , since it is stressful buying a new vehicle. I would recommend this dealership to others interested in a new car purchase or lease.

I was in the market for a new value mid-size sedan, after getting tired of driving a compact SUV (2007 Rav4) for many years (due to poor performance and handling, compact SUV's suck! I also used to be a Toyota fan mainly due to their reliability, but they seem to be slipping now). After loads of online research, narrowed down my choice to equally well-rated 2013 Fusion SE 2.5L and 2013 Accord EX.I was initially heads over heals for the looks of the new Fusion, outside and inside. It's a head-turner on the road, and the interior technology and finishing are way ahead of its time.. too cool. Test drove the car, wasn't pleased with the performance or handling. I didn't want the EcoBoost (turbo) options due to potential mechanical issues reported online. Also, I am uncertain of Ford's overall reliability. Another thing that didn't help was that each car within the same model comes with different options, which made it difficult to find the exact features and color I wanted. Last but not least, I had the worst dealership experience ever at the Ford dealership in Old Bridge, NJ. Sales person was extremely rude, short tempered, uninformed and unprofessional. Made sure I complained to the manager before I left..I was initially not attracted to the Accord, seemed comparatively boring, outside and inside (never owned or driven one before, just know it's a common car and has great value). But the test drive changed my mind. The minute I stepped on the gas, fell in love with the smooth performance and handling. The reviews are right, Honda knows how make a good car. Choosing a model and trim is simple, all features come standard per model! General Honda dealership experience was mixed, timing is a big factor. Had to go through multiple Honda dealerships to find a good one. Something to note about Honda is that their cars sell themselves and they know it. Which presents a frequent problem - most Honda sales staff is professional but arrogant. They'll usually limit the haggle and offer one final (and not so low) out-the-door price. If the customer takes it great, if not the next one will.I tried my luck going to multiple Honda dealerships till I ended up at DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge, NJ. The whole experience was surprisingly positive. The whole staff was extremely friendly and professional. Mike Serra, Luis Torres, Joseph Koedros, and Lily Li - great guys. Even the negotiation/haggle part wasn't that bad. And I got a really good price (the best part :). They made the buying process and paperwork really efficient. They do try to sell you the usual additional services but that too being professional and not over-assertive. They pay a lot of attention to detail to ensure customers have the best experience at their dealership. That is how car buying should be! And I did regain some faith in car salesmen and dealerships. I am definitely a Honda fan now and will consider DCH as my first choice for my next car purchase. As a matter of fact, while I was sitting at the dealership, I was already making plans with my wife for our next car purchase..A few things to note including some car buying tips and tricks: - All dealerships are different and all salesmen are different (even if it's the same make). If you're not having a good experience, ask for someone else or go elsewhere. It's your money being spent and you shouldn't feel pressured or deserve a negative experience. It's worth spending extra hours or days, and driving extra miles if you're spending thousands of $.- Do plenty of online research, read car reviews, ratings, comparisons. Use websites like TrueCar.com to get best price quotes and reduce the need to haggle at the dealer.- Call the dealer before you go to make sure they have the car you want and will value your price quote or beat a competitor's price. When you walk in, ask for the internet sales department. These guys are focused on volume as opposed to profits and will give you a competitive price.- Timing is key. Most dealerships will reduce their profits at the end of the week, month or year to meet their quotas. You might be able to haggle a lower price for the car.- Control the price negotiation/haggle process one step at a time. Seal the out-the-door total price first, then talk about trade-ins separately, then talk about financing.- Research and get preapproved for a bank auto loan before you walk in. This may simplify the negotiation and financing steps in your favor. Unless the dealer has special low financing available, their interest rates are usually higher than bank auto loans.Good luck! I'm off to enjoying my new blue Honda Accord EX from DCH Academy Honda, Old Bridge, NJ. Awesome guys :)

I usually put getting a new car on par with a visit to the Dentist - but my experience with Mark and Essam was exceptional. Not only did they do everything possible to meet my requirements, but Sam continued to call after the sale was made to follow up on some loose ends relative to the termination of our last lease. His advice was invaluable.I bought my first Honda from this site (although it was known as Briggs at the time) 32 years ago. We went away from Honda's for a while but came back to them about a dozen years ago. We did business with another dealer and it was not fun. Based upon the experience we had this time, I kick myself for not coming back to Academy sooner.I highly recommend Academy - particularly Sam and Mark.

The entire buying experience was great from the time I submitted my online info to when we drove off in our new Pilot. Joe Koedros took care of us. He was responsive and easy to work with. No sale pressure or gimmick. As for the rest of the sales staff - Everyone seemed engaged and friendly. This is the second car we bought from Academy. Over the last few years, service on our 2004 was great and I would expect the same for our new Pilot. Met to say my wife's Pilot - Who doesn't like a new car.

I purchased my first vehicle (a 2005 Civic) from DCH Academy Honda 8 years ago. I was extremely pleased with my experience and loved the car. When it came time for me to look into a new car, I made the mistake of visiting a few other dealerships before, of course, making my way back to DCH. The atmosphere at the dealership made me feel comfortable immediately, and everyone working was friendly and helpful. My experience this time around with DCH Academy Honda was a pleasure from start to finish, and my salesman Joe Koedros made the entire process quick and painless. Joe has an awesome personality, and while the process was very professional, he also made it a lot of fun! I walked right in and sat down with him, and within just a few minutes he knew exactly what I wanted and put me in a brand new CR V to test drive. Joe is not your typical salesman- there is never any pressure from him and you can tell that he genuinely wants to give you everything you need for the best price possible. He didn't try to push anything extra onto me, and he was very thorough in his explanations of the vehicle and all of its features. He explained every square inch of the car to me, and assured me that if I ever had any questions to call or stop in to see him for assistance. The entire selection and buying process took nothing more than an hour or so, although I never felt rushed at all. Joe located the exact vehicle I wanted and got it to me the very next day!I also worked with Tian Reid on the financial side of things. This was my first time leasing a vehicle as opposed to buying, and he too made the process as simple as possible. He was careful to explain everything to me in detail, and made no attempt to pressure me into any additional purchases.All in all, I walked away with a 100% positive experience, and a new CR V that I absolutely love. I would recommend anyone looking for a new vehicle seriously consider making a trip to DCH Academy Honda and seeing Joe Koedros for their new car needs. You will not be disappointed with the experience! My father is a Honda loyalist through and through, and his last vehicle purchase was also done with Joe. He also could not say enough about Joe and the excellent service he provides. Joe Koedros definitely has both of us as loyal customers for our future Honda purchases.

Buying a new car can be a major ordeal at some dealers, but Joe and Mark both made this task very easy for us at DCH. It is a very professional environment. No pressure from the sales people. Both Joe and Mark went out of their way to accommodate what we were looking for. It was a pleasure working with both of them, and would definitely will go back to the dealership when looking for another car.

My experience at DCH Honda in Old Bridge is one I'll remember for a very long time. From the moment I walked in to the moment I drove off in my new Honda Civic, I felt like I knew everyone I dealt with and as if they all knew me. I was treated with respect and I felt that everything took it's time. Never during my time at the dealership did I feel rushed to make any sort of a decision. I worked with Mr. Khalil Quraishi and he's by far the best sales person I've met by far. He has a kindred spirit and he truly enjoys putting a smile on his client's face. I came in on Saturday and spent a good part of the day at the dealership, but Mr. Quraishi made the wait well worth it. I went back to the dealership on Monday 4/22 to pick up my car and sign all the necessary paperwork. Mr. Vipin Rishi was in charge of that and unlike any other dealership before, he made the process simple and painless. DCH Honda is a place I'll be visiting again for a new car. I look forward to doing business with them again soon. Thank you foremost to Mr. Khalil Quraishi and the rest of the DCH Honda team!!!

I don't usually rave about buying a car, but buying at DCH Academy Honda was a great car buying experience. The Internet price from Mark Kamatoy was fast, honest and very competitive. The price Mark quoted was the price I paid. No last minutes hidden fees or gimmicks. Sam Beshay, the salesman, was outstanding. He was super friendly, experienced, respectful and handled everything to make this purchase a true pleasure. He's the kind of guy you want to invite home for dinner. He is not your typical car saleman. Vipin Rishi, the Finance Manager was a friendly, no pressure guy that finalized all the paperwork in minutes. I went in to look at the car and drove home with my new Honda Sport in less than 2 hours. John Nguyen, the Floor Manager came over and thanked me for my business and asked me about my experience and honestly cared about what I had to say. These guys will change everything you have ever hated about buying a car. I would definitely recommend this dealership to friends and family. Well done DCH Academy Honda!!!Vin A.

I brought a new Honda Accord EX-2013 on Saturday, sales person Wahid Shibli helped us a lot to find a good deal , he is very friendly and explained very well about all the features by comparing with other models, we went for test drive and same day I brought the car with out any hassle. I am very much satisfied and strongly suggest this dealer for any purchase/service.

Mark and Sam gave us a great deal on a 2013 Honda CRV. The monthly payment was right where we wanted it to be. They treated us with respect and thoroughly explained every aspect of the car buying process. We'd recommend both sales persons to anyone interested in purchasing a new car. We liked them so much that our family bought two cars in less than a week!

We looked at a number of different brands of vehicles for the qualities (style, gas mileage, comfort) and price that we were looking for, and we found it at DCH Honda. We have purchased and leased cars at DCH Honda before, so we knew it would be a good experience, and we were not disappointed! Joe Koedros is a great person to work with, he is very knowledgeable and has a great, friendly personality. He helped us set up our cell phones with the vehicle bluetooth, which was a plus for us tech unsavy seniors, although it seemed easy. He was extremely helpful, a pleasure to work with, and we would recommend anyone to go see Joe when they are looking for a car. Everyone at the dealership was friendly and helpful, Lily Li in the finance department especially so.

Sam was great to work with. He was invested in my purchase and made the process smooth. He was constantly communicating with me and I am very grateful to have worked with him in my purchase of the car.

I have been working with Joseph Guzzo from start to finish in the process of getting a new leased vehicle. I couldn't have asked for a better salesman. He was wonderful, friendly to work with and above all HONEST !!!! He did not try to pump it up...... and bleed you. He really worked with me and worked within my financial needs. I told him my wish list, unfortunately you don't always get what you dream but he was able to make some things happen and still keep me smiling. I feel is mannerism and customer service is exemplary Would I go back to DCH Honda Academy? Yes only if Joe Guzzo is still there. My Husband's lease is up shorty and I will make sure he only go see Joe and no else.I picked up my Honda Odyssey on 4/16/2013.......Linda K.

This was the best experience I have ever had purchasing a new vehicle. Everyone I encountered while at the dealership was very friendly and outgoing. My Salesman Paul Rittberg showed me all the features of my new car in detail. The experience was never boring. Paul made learning how to use the windshield wipers seem exciting. The easiest car buying experience ever.

This was my 2nd experience with this dealership and my first time buying a car. My parents always leased vehicles and i was very uncertain with the whole process. This is also my second time working with Paul Rittberg. I found the entire experience to be extremely efficient. Paul has been working there for over 10 years and has plenty of tips and advice for a new car buyer. He took me through the entire process, left nothing to chance, and cracked a few jokes to make the day go by faster. He also does not make you go sit in the waiting room while he goes and tries to sell more cars. When he is working on your deal, it is a 1 on 1 process until you drive off of the lot. When i worked with Lily from the finance department, she also went through the finances with me and gave me several additional options to ensure proper care of my new Honda. She was not pushy at all and was very thorough in reviewing the details. I would recommend this dealership to anyone!

I worked with Dave to buy a 2010 Honda Odyssey LX. After a few months of owning the LX I learned that I couldn't upgrade to the third seat in the second row. Dave helped me find an EX and got me a fantastic price. He made the entire process smooth and I would recommend him to anyone looking for an honest, hard-working dealer. Thanks Dave!

This was my second time using DCH Honda, and my experience was excellent. Buying or leasing a car can be very stressful and long, but Joe made it easy and as comfortable as possible. My is in the military and we move around a lot so leasing was hard on the miles. Joe helped me get out of my lease, and into a brand new car that I can now finance on my own! Being pregnant its sometimes hard to be somewhere for long periods of time, but every department made sure I was comfortable and taken care of every step of the way. I would recommend this dealership to anyone looking for a new or used vehicle, leasing or financing I've used them for both now. What a terrific experience.

I had a great experience leasing the 2013 Accord Sport at DCH Academy in Old Bridge! Jennifer was helpful in confirming the deal posted online, Erich was super friendly, helpful, knowledgable, and not pushy, and Tian was a pleasure to work with. Erich helped me make the great decision of going with the Sport model over the standard LE, yet didn't do it in a pushy way, trying to convince me to spend more against my will. He simply introduced to me the Sport model and the moment I said I don't think I'll need the upgrade, he didn't mention it again until I thought it through and at the end asked to see the Sport again. If he had pushed and tried to oversell it, it would have turned me off more from even considering it. Erich was efficient and made sure I was making the best decision for my family. No games, no gimmicks. Very genuine and straight forward. After I picked the car, I met with Tian to go over the finances and after I left the dealer and realized the next day that I didn't need to add the extended service, Tian got back to me right away and gladly resolved the issue efficiently. Overall, I am very satisfied and am so glad that I went with DCH Academy Honda!

I walked in to the dealership to just inquire about trade in value of my old car and lease a new car. Guess what, within an hour I walked out with a deal. The whole process was very smooth. I got the new Honda CR-V in the color I wanted and within the price range I was looking for. Ryan Hoey, the sales associate who helped me with this process is a true professional. Ryan provided great service, answered all my questions very patiently, worked out a great deal for me and made sure that I walk out completely satisfied. When I was picking up my new car, he even helped me to move my stuff from old car to new car and that too in a very cold weather, Thanks Ryan !So anyone who is looking to by a car in the tri-state area, check this dealership first, they will save you lot of time & money!

I brought my S2000 CR in for an oil change and rear differential service. Mycheck engine light had recently turned on within the last month. Enrique determined the check engine light was because of a bad catalytic converter. I had suspected this (becasue of recent changes in sound) but was told different by a previous delarship. Enrique also told me that the converter was still under warranty. Upon replacing the converter he determined the O2 sensor was aslo bad and had this replaced as well. He was very thurough and not quick to dismiss my input like others had been.Thanks to DCH ACADEMY HONDA and Enrique for restoring my vehicle , while confirming that I was correct about a failing catalytic converter.

Customer service was outstanding and I will be recommending this place to everyone I know! DCH Honda is the place to go for anyone interested in a friendly atmosphere of people who know their stuff and aren't pushy about just .making the sale'.

Joe was extremely friendly from the moment we walked into the dealership. He clearly knows what he is doing and gets the job done, while being social and making small talk with us. Even when we tried to get a better deal, he acted very professional and friendly. The process of purchasing a car is long and requires a great deal of paperwork, but Joe put in a great deal of effort and got through the process quickly while doing it the proper way. I would definitely recommend Joe Lisciandri to anybody.

DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge, NJ is the best dealership to buy a new car. The moment I enter this dealership I feel more comfortable, relax and no pressure at all. All I did is test drive the 2013 Pilot and right after we agreed with price but need to be discussed with my wife..My sales consultant was Paul P. and he is very knowledgeable, honest and very friendly...after a week I decided to purchase the vehicle and went very smooth, even when the time to sign all the paper work from the finance dept..yes they offer me all the options (e.g. extended warranty) and decided not to purchase anything and still they never force me or feel uncomfortable during the process. This is my advise to people who is car shopping rightnow just come and visit this dealership and you will never regret it. Thank You Paul P. & Tian R.! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

He was a great sales consultant, who really knew everything about the car, how to save us (the customers) money, what we needed, cared about us, and really told us everything up front and of course the TRUTH -- something that I value and care for when looking for a vehicle. I always love when the salesmen, like Mr. Essam, is truthful and honest. I have no complaints!

It had been a long time since we had gone car shopping. We had been driving a '97 Camry which had 171K miles and it had finally reached the point where we had no desire to put money into it. After doing research (Consumers, AAA) we decided to check out the Honda line. We ended up at DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge because it was relatively close to home and we'd used DCH Toyota for our '97.We had a wonderful experience. DCH Academy is not one of those overwhelming dealerships. We did not find it intimidating at all. And the staff made us feel very comfortable immediately.We originally went in thinking we'd just do a test drive, expecting pressure to buy, but resolute that we wouldn't be pressured into anything we didn't want to do. There was no need for hesitation. We didn't feel one minute of pressure from anyone. And, yes, we ended up driving out in a new 2013 Civic!!We worked mostly with our salesman Joe Koedros (Joe K.), but Joe Scardigno (sales mgr) was also involved. Joe K. treated us like we were the only customers there. It was a Saturday, the end of the month and they were very busy. But even though the whole process took a while, Joe K. never once made us feel that he was spending too much time with us. He guided us through the whole experience and made sure we were satisfied before we drove away.We would not hesitate recommending DCH Academy Honda and, specifically, Joe K. We have another car that is up there in years and won't hesitate going back to Joe when the time is right!!

Hi, I just purchased a 2012 Honda Civic SI from your dealership. Joseph Yankunas, my salesman, was extremely helpful. The whole process was very smooth and stress-free. Joseph's people skills made me feel as if i wasn't even talking to a salesman! Joseph Koedros and Vipin Rishi, whom also dealt with my purchase (and insurance company) were also excellent. DCH has made my car buying experience the most comfortable i've ever had and i would/will recommend them to any family/friends interested in purchasing a vehicle. Sincere Thanks,Christopher Orlando

I traded in my Pilot EXL within 2Hours; received a great monthly rate and most of all I didn't have to go thru that back and forth negotiation...write a price on a little piece of paper, take it to the manager, then the rep. comes back in 1/2 hour, probably hanging out by the cooler and so forth and maybe you can agree on a price 4 hours later in which I have done in the past...I have always dreaded trading my lease in, but with this dealer sales rep; Joseph was different. I was straight to the point of what I wanted; Joseph and Hussain delivered in a very professional manner...No Games!

When I first called, I spoke with Michael Serra, who was very polite and helpful to us in getting us the car we wanted. From there on, we dealt with Essam (Sam) Beshay. He was extremely knowledgeable, polite and friendly. Sam answered each and every question we had with patience and in a very proficient manner. Sam was well versed and experienced. He did not rush us at all. It was a pleasure doing business with both gentlemen!

I will never again dread the day that I have to go into a car dealership. From the second I walked in the door and was greeted by the front desk girl..(I think her name was Miranda), this place made me feel relaxed and like a valued customer. I was approached by the manager, Chris Mazzeo, who was so helpful, had a very friendly demeanor and a great sense of humor which definitely took the edge off of shopping for a new vehicle. Chris introduced me me to our salesman, Joe Koedros which became a match made in heaven within the first 2 minutes. I did ALOT of research before I walked in the door and I really appreciated how honest, knowledgable and upfront Joe was. He was pleasant, patient and an overall pleasure to deal with. I walked out with the car I wanted at the price I expected and an experience that I couldnt wait to tell people about which included alot of laughs. I will certainly recommend DCH Academy Honda to anyone looking for a car. Thanks, Guys.

After searching on web I found the exact car my daughter wanted at DCH Honda. I went there the next day and salesman Joe Lisciandria helped me through the purchase process. He cut through all the nonsense involved in buying a car, which is exactly the way I like to handle business. A misunderstanding in the financing of the vehicle was settled in my favor. We negotiated what I believe was a great price for me and they gave me far more then what my trade in vehicle was worth. Terry Bhatia handled the final finance paperwork, he was very professional and stayed very calm while I could tell he was swamped with work. He was a calming figure while I had to workout some problems in my paperwork. When I left the parking lot, I had a very clean and well prepped car. Overall I was very happy with my experience at DCH and would certainly recommend them to family and friends.

This was the most pleasant car buying experience I have ever been a part of. I remember going to buy cars, whether new or used, as an uncomfortable ordeal until actually making a deal and purchase. In this case, I was in and out of the dealership in under 2 hours, which I still can't believe, and drove away with a great Jeep and great deal. The salesman was beyond friendly and helpful, and made this car buying experience extremely pleasurable and memorable. Thanks so much!

This has been such a positive experience for us, from the first phone call from DCH Honda, to our purchasing our new CRV. After previously walking out of a Brooklyn Honda dealership that left a bad taste in our mouth, we couldn't have been happier with DCH. We were greeted by the Manager when we arrived for our appointment and introduced to our salesman, Sam Beshay. He was very knowledgable about the CRV and very helpful in getting our registration transferred, and the new car put on our insurance. There was no pressure whatsoever in our dealings and we happily drove our new vehicle home hours after arriving at DCH Honda. Sam was very friendly and courteous and made us feel very comfortable. I would gladly do business with this dealership again and would highly recommend them to our family and friends

I want to thank Erich Tam, DCH HONDA, Old Bridge, NJ for the Great, Very Professional service he gave me while shopping for a car. I was comparing Honda Accord with Toyota camry. I had intentions to purchase my 4th Camry, but was sort of interested in the Accord before making a final decision. Erich Tam is a very pleasant sales persons who knows the product he is selling and I was very impressed with his knowledge!. He LISTENS to the customer and is not aggressive, PUSHING me to buy like NOW! I made another appointment to meet and test drive the Accord and I decided to buy it. He had a car ready for me and it was exactly the interior/ exterior colors I wanted. What amazed me, he already KNEW what I wanted to buy from previous meetings and listening & remembering what I said. He will also try to get the Best Price, which was better than the AAA pricing. It will be a pleasure to refer his name to any of my clients!

Excellent deal, easy, fast, painless experience. Very courteous and patient staff. My brother also bought car from same dealership and Salesperson Ryan Hoey. Usually you have to sit and wait in dealership for hours to get your car after they sign you. But not here; after I made a decision, all legal stuff was done within minutes. I leased New 2013 Honda Accord Sport for exceptional price. I am very happy with the car and glad that walk in this dealership.

We always have a great experience with DCH, friendly employees. This is our 3rd vehicle purchase and would return. Other Honda dealerships that we have browsed in the past made it feel like we were at a market!

I highly recommend buying your used certified Honda at this dealership. Dave was extremely helpful, patient, and informative. He let my girlfriend test drive a couple cars until we found the perfect accord that fit our budget. I had bought a certified Honda in 2012 from Dave , and I didn't want to buy anywhere else. Easiest car buying experience. Thanks again Dave m and Veronica for setting up the appointment.

I was recommended to visit this dealership specifically by several acquaintances who had previously purchased their cars through Dave Mazurek. Immediately, I was impressed. He was efficient, yet thorough. I had a chance to browse the dealership's inventory online prior to my visit, so I had an idea of what I was looking for, and Dave was able to show me which models were still available right off the bat. He answered every question I had about the vehicle I ended up test driving, and was very detailed in his explanation of the terms of purchase, the warranty, the pricing, and especially my payment options. He was very attentive to my concerns and it was apparent he did everything he could to help me stay within my budget. Dave took us through every step of the buying process from the CarFax and KBB price quotes to my financing options and credit report. He was patient with us and explained everything in terms we as every day consumers could understand and showed us step by step how the numbers were crunched to reach the final purchase price. He moved us through the process at a very impressive speed, and we were driving my certified pre-owned Honda Civic off the lot in less than 2 hours. I would definitely recommend this dealership, and more specially Dave, to any friends and family in need of a car.

I took my Honda Accord 2009 EX-L 4 cylinder in for a major service. I have to say Kristine Teh, the service advisor ,was extremely professional and courteous. She explained what needed to be done in detail with my car. She answered every question I had and made feel very comfortable. I also was given very affordable pricing. When the servicing was done and I pulled my car out of the dealer, I felt a noticeable difference right away. My car is riding smoother than it has been for at least two years. It felt like the day I first drove it out of the showroom!I would definitely recommend doing business with DCH Academy Honda to anyone, and for service Kristine is definitely a winner!Gary S. Miller

I bought a used Honda Civic for my teenaged daughters. Even though the car was less than $5000, I never felt like I was less important than customers spending much more. Joe L., my salesman, answered all my questions, didn't pressure me, returned my calls promptly. When I got the car home I realized there was no jack in the trunk. Joe was nice enough to go to the post office himself and mail a jack to me. What a guy!

I bought a Honda Civic almost 5 years ago and have loved the quality and performance of the car, so when it came time to purchase a family vehicle I knew I wanted another Honda. I returned to DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge, NJ to purchase my 2013 Honda Odyssey and I'm completely satisfied with my purchase. Paul, my sales person was great, the buying process was easy and I would recommend Honda and this dealer to anyone in the market for a new vehicle.

I came in to get out of my current lease on a 2011 Honda Civic Si and look at a new vehicle to lease. I originally went in for an Accord Sport and Robert and John N. gave me a great price understanding I wanted a payment less than $300. The down payment was a little high so I asked to price out a Civic Si sedan and the price fit my budget much better. They're so helpful and always looking to make you feel comfortable. I dealt with John Nguyen last time I leased my Honda and this time he was just as great. Robert as a salesman was awesome and did a fantastic job of showing me all thew features of the cars I looked at and test drove. I wasn't sure if I wanted another Honda bute after this second phenomenal experience I won't go anywhere else for a car!! The guys are the best!!

We have purchased numerous cars, but this by far was the best experience to date. We walked into the Dealership and we were immediately greeted by a Sales Representative. We were very fortunate to work with Paul Papis, if you need a new car or simply anything he is your guy. From the moment we stepped foot into the dealership till we finally left with a car (2 weeks later) it was never only about a purchase of a new vehicle it was about making sure we have the car that we truly wanted. Our case was unique because it was the end of the month and we really wanted to get a car with better gas mileage. We traded in an SUV from 2007 and we got the best trade in value. I mean I went to every dealership and Paul said to us, just let me know what they give you and we will do what we can. Boy did they deliver, they not only gave us the best trade in value, but they gave us the best price and got us exactly the car we wanted. There were no questions when it came to the car/color we wanted. Paul and DCH Academy Honda actually didn't have it in stock, but Paul made it happen and actually went up to pick it up himself. Now tell me that is not great service huh? The guy is the truth, plain and simple. He is honest, loyal, caring and most importantly the right sales representative for all. The dealership is great, but in our eyes Paul was outstanding with his follow up and constantly making sure we got what we wanted.I can proudly say we enjoy our new 2013 Honda Accord Black on Black, the color we wanted all along. I have already told all my friends and family members looking for a car that they do not need to look any further than DCH Academy Honda and that they absolutely need to ask for Paul.Thank you for a great experience and thank you for this great new car, we all love it!!!!!!!The Hanna Family

I gave the rating I did because when I first entered the dealership it was crowded beyond the point where there was not even a single seat available to sit. I already had a list of cars with stock numbers and knew exactly what I was looking for. Upon the Sales Manager finding out that I already knew what I wanted I was assisted shortly after. In the beginning you can tell it was a hectic day because my sales guy Joe was rushing to get the process underway. But after time had past, Joe became really nice and even often us pizza and soda because he realized we had been there for some time. The process as far as paperwork with Joe was smooth, and straight forward. However, I didn't give them perfect rating because I got there around 2:15pm and didn't leave the dealership until 9:01pm. That day there was only financial manager and a lot of cars were sold causing the wait to be beyond ridiculous. Once I sat with the financial manager he was very kind and accommodating and again the paperwork was smooth and he answered all of my questions at least twice. Everyone overall was very pleasant and compared to other dealerships their prices are very GOOD and very realistic. I would recommend going there with a game plan as far as a list of cars you would like to see to help streamline the process but all-in-all is was a good experience for having it be my first car purchase and I would recommend them to everyone!

I called Joe Lisciandri on Wednesday evening inquiring about a car I saw on cars.com. Joe informed that unfortunately that car had been sold but he took down the information of what I was looking for and price range .On Friday evening he called me with a car and my husband, daughter and myself went to look at the 2003 Honda Civic LX on Saturday. The car was clean, ran well and the price was right. Joe addressed some concerns that my husband and I had prior to closing the deal, answering all of our questions and helping us to make the car more affordable. He tried to make our wait as short as possible and even gave us directions on how to get back to Route 18. He was truly a professional making this a great experience which is why I will recommend Joe and your dealership to all of my friends. I never expected to have another car so soon after making the first inquiry. Usually the salesman calls you in and tries to sell you something way over your price range but with Joe this was not the case.Thank you,Beth Alterman

I bought CR-V (EX) in Jan 2013. Power is really nice for a 4 cylinder car. Bluetooth works great with my iPhone, and steering wheel controls are fantastic.This is the first time I have ever enjoyed purchasing a vehicle from a dealership DCH Academy Honda. Everyone at Academy Honda, particularly sales is always so accommodating and friendly. Harshad Panchal (HP) was my sales associate and was terrific. He took time to answer my questions and I never felt pressured. He helped me choosing the right car and gave me a good deal. He is very nice and fun loving person. Before DCH, I went to couple other dealers but he beat all the deals and gets me the great price. If you are looking to buy a new Honda, I highly recommend DCH and HP.

I want to thank Veronica Galluccio for her help and patience throughout the buying process. She never pushed or rushed my wife and I. She was also very informative with us. We purchased a Honda Pillot Touring 2011 on March 9th 2013. Veronica stuck with us and answered our every concern. It was a long process but I left the dealership with a smile on face in my new (used) vehicle. I had purchased two new vehicles from this dealership, one in 2004 and one in 2005. Thats why I returned to DCH Academy Honda. I had a good buying experience then and a better one this time. When I buy my next new vehicle soon I will return to DCH.

After some careful research online I decided to explore an Accord lease with DCH Academy Honda because of their great reviews. Rather than go to the dealership right away, I was able to use a convenient chat feature to get some useful information. Jennifer Calderon, the internet sales consultant, was very helpful and friendly when it came to answering my questions about models and pricing. She also set me up with an appointment for a test drive. At the dealership I worked with sales consultant Joseph Yankunas. Joe was an easy going, no pressure type of salesman. In essence, he let me do the driving when it came to my level of interest, price range, etc. Joe was well-informed about the different Civic and Accord models and the lease options. If he didn't know the answer to one of my questions he made sure to ask someone who could provide accurate information. When I walked in to the dealership I already had my heart set on a black 2013 Accord Sport - Joe, Jen, and the team made sure I got that exact car at a very reasonable price. The car is amazing; the standard options alone (back-up camera, bluetooth, alloy rims) blow away the competition in the class. I definitely reccomend this dealership for a no-nonsense experience. For the reasons listed above, I give a 5 out of 5 rating!

Only have my new civic for a day,but so far the car is great. Would like to thank Paul and all the staff for making my buying experience very easy time after time. I have been buying honda's from Paul for many years now, and I wouldn't shop anywhere else. So if your are looking to buy a new Honda go to Dch and ask for Paul. You will get a great car or truck for a fair price and best of all you don't have to put up with the typical pushy salesperson routine that you find at most dealerships. Thanks again!!!!

I went to DCH Academy Honda to look at a lease on a 2013 Accord LX. I might be the only person writing a positive review for Paul, that did not actually make a deal or purchase a car. I went to see Paul because a friend of mine just purchased a car from him, and raved about how great the experience was with Paul. Paul really went way above and beyond to make sure I was happy with the numbers he presented, and even when I wasn't he continued to work with me and give a CLEAR explanation as to why we couldn't get to the numbers I wanted. I have bought several cars in my life, and I can tell when the sales person is just trying to make a few extra dollars or trying to be sincere and honest. Even after I left the dealership Paul followed up with me via email, and phone call. Offered his help and advice if needed while purchasing the vehicle else where (seriously who does that)! I would recommend Academy Honda, and Paul Papis to anyone interested in purchased a new Honda. He knows the in's and out's of purchasing a Honda, and understand's his product well.

We purchased a Honda Civic in January for our son and went back to see Erich Tam regarding replacing our older Jeep Grand Cherokee with a new Honda CRV. Erich was very patient, helpful and thorough from the initial test drive to when we returned on a subsequent visit to look at different models and colors before finally making the decision. He and his manager, Jon took time to answer all our questions and ensure all our needs were met. We also got a great deal and incentives for being loyal customers of Honda. Everyone we met was friendly and helpful at this dealership including the Finance Director...Tian. This is our 3rd car from DCH Honda. The service is great and we are very happy with our new CRV!

Since I bought my first car back in 1994, Im coming to DCH Academy Honda. This is my 3rd Honda Accord bought at DCH Academy Honda in addition to buying 6 other cars (accord, civic) for my family members and all that times, I never felt pressured which is a key when buying a car. Andy Lau has helped me. He is nice, polite, knowledgeable, patience, honest and friendly. He's very helpful and is quite good at explaining any question you ask him. He has gone above and beyond the call of duty. I would definitely buy another vehicle from Andy at this dealership.My cars have also been serviced by their team and they are thorough and you will be comfortable to know that your car was serviced by some of the best mechanics around. My special thanks to Kristine Teh (service advisor) for her superb customer service and advice. Overall, very good experience and superb customer service. Would definitely recommend buying a car from DCH Academy Honda

First, I'd like to say that Veronica Galluccio was an excellent sales associate. I had been shopping for a used car to replace a car lost in an accident. I was committed to staying within my budget, and DCH Honda had the inventory to meet my needs. Veronica took our inital call, sent me the carfax before we left our home, then completed the deal with no pressure or gimics. The car was clean, and I feel was fairly priced. I would recommend going to DCH Academy Honda if you are looking for a used car.

Fantastic and friendly atmosphere. Mariana was honest and accurate with the internet price. Academy was the ONLY dealer to completely and honestly break down the price of my OdysseyEXL completely and include all the fees associated with the sale. I was so impressed by this that I drove from Staten Island, and they made it worth my time. Stephen spent 1 hour explaining the Settings and Bluetooth after he had already sold us our ODYSSEY . And he seemed happy to do so. ABOVE and BEYOND..Awesome. My wife and I appreciated the professionalism and the rock bottom price Stephen gave us. Please buy a car from Stephen, my wife and I give him two thumbs up.!! Oh yea, and we Love our Black Odyssey EXL---what an amazing and Beautiful car!!!

He's very helpful and is quite good at explaining any question you ask him. He has gone above and beyond the call of duty. Mark was the Internet Sales man I have spoken to and he's kind and will give you a fair market value for your car. Tian and Lily are very good at dealing with the finances and will try their best to get you a great deal, so that you can maintain your car properly. My cars have also been serviced by their team and they are thorough and you will be comfortable to know that your car was serviced by some of the best mechanics around.

We were debating between a new and certified pre-owned Odyssey. I had the pleasure of dealing with Mark Kamatoy, Pete Modzelewski, and Gerry Bruno. I was also in contact with many other Honda dealerships at the same time. I'd urge you to talk to a few different dealers so you can really appreciate the difference in quality with Academy. The crew at Academy was fast, polite, and truthful, and at no time did I ever feel any of the old car salesman cliches. Mark and Pete laid the groundwork and worked out all of the pricing options, and there was never any haggling...just working together respectfully to make the car fit our budget. When we finally went into the dealership we were lucky to have Gerry be the one to greet us. Gerry was delightful, down to Earth, knowledgeable, and quick. My son liked a picture of a Corvette Gerry had on his wall calendar, so Gerry ripped it off and gave it to him. Just a nice gesture (and helped keep a 2 year old occupied, which was great). There's a reason over 99% of reviewers on cars.com recommend Academy. The staff was friendly and helpful and there was no pressure at all. Nothing but good things to say.

DCH Acedmy Honda in Freehold has made our buying experience comfortable and delightful. Our salesman was persistent and helped construct a deal that resulted in us doing business with them. This is the first time we have leased a vehicle and DCM made the experience a lot easier than we expected. I would highly recommend them to anyone in the market to buy or lease a vehicle. Management was more than committed to our customer satisfaction and that meant a lot to us.

I went to DCH Academy Honda looking for the perfect 2013 Honda Accord, and the sales and finance team there didn't disappoint. After inquiring about a 2013 Honda Accord online, Mark Kamatoy connected me with Sam Beshay. Sam Beshay was extremely courteous and informative throughout the entire purchase process, which concluded with a smooth and affordable financing arrangement from Hussain Nawaz. Sam Beshay was able to acquire the exact model and color Honda Accord that I was looking for, and I couldn't have been more pleased with my experience. Overall I would be happy to go to DCH Honda again in the future, and I definitely plan to recommend this dealership to friends and family.- Jake Hansen

It was very refreshing to have a sales person who was very informative but not pushy. It is a turn off when a sales person tries to be pushy by trying to make you feel guilty if you do not buy. The young man was not like that. He educated me about the car. He gave me a fair deal and was very direct. I would buy from him again, and I have even recommended him to others already.

I have purchased many cars in the past and have delt with many Dealerships. DCH Honda is the best Dealer I have encountered. Jennifer Calderon and Paul Papas made my purchasing experience easy and without pressure or stress. I cannot say enough about Jennifer and Paul. They answered all my questions and informed me that they would be available if I needed assistance in the future. All of the people I met at DCH Honda were friendly and helpful. I have not used the Service Center yet but I am sure the folks there will give me the same friendly service I received in sales. I will purchase autos from DCH in the future and recommend DCH Honda to my family and friends. Thank you Jennifer and Paul for being the nice people that you are. You are an asset to DCH Honda and they should be lucky to have employees like you working for them. They should know that I purchased two Honda Pilots due to the efforts of you Jennifer and Paul. In closing I must mention that the Swiss Chocolate Coffee in the service area is the best!

My first Honda ever (Civic) buy, used to Porsche / Audi / BMW service/approach so was not expecting much of service and was expecting a lot of BS like extra fees, useless insurances, dealer installed options and different price than initially pre-negotiated. It was completely opposite starting with exceptionally friendly, knowledgeable and professional sales person, no BS sales approach, painless negotiation (got the price lower than my local dealer w/o any hassle), very understanding management (car was processed in less than 2 hours from being on the lot to ready for me to drive away, dealing with my no so typical car payment method). If you are seriously looking to buy and want to walk away from the dealership with new vehicle same day than I recommend you give them a call. Essam (Sam) was incredible and very accommodating. Try them out you will not be disappointed.

I had a great experience buying a car from DCH Academy Honda . Earlier I went to another dealer who did not live up to the price they promised me on the internet . But Paul and Jeniffer promised me they would beat the price I got from another dealer and they were very true to their word . Paul has a great sense of humor and I quite enjoyed working out a great deal with him .When all the paper work was done he was very patient enough to go over each and every detail of the car with me . Overall a great salesman and a very good dealership to work with . They did not haggle me with unknown or hidden fees , I asked them and they told me every charge upfront , they also told me what was optional .Thanks Paul , Jeniffer and DCH .

This was the best experience that my husband and I have had buying a car in the past several years. Gerry Bruno was patient and friendly and most impoortantly NOT pushy! Gerry worked with us to get us into a car that we could afford. I never felt pressured to sign a deal. I felt like we got a great used car at a very fair price and I love that it was a certified Honda. When my Hyundai lease is up next year, I will definitely go back and see Gerry.

The reason why I leased my car at DCH goes to Both salesman Joseph Koedros and Manager Chris Mazzeo . They made leasing my car a very nice experience. Both were very knowledgeable ,friendly and gave us the the time we needed to both discuss what i wanted and how they could make that happen. Leasing a car can be stressful but these guys helped greatly by answering any and all questions we had. I recommend asking for these gentlemen and i know you will have a very good experience .I got the car I wanted at a good price and it wasn't stressful, what more could you ask for?

Erich is very patient with me, explaining the process to me in details, and make sound recommendations.I would come back to his dealership for my next car purchase.

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

Great experience! I went to trade in my '09 Civic for a '13 Civic and they gave me a decent price on it! I then leased the '13 Civic brand new and they had the exact car I was looking for! The staff and salesman were all friendly and knowledgeable and were able to help me get into the car for a price I could afford! It's as if they made sure my time and experience was superb no matter what! I would definitely recommend Sam and DCH Academy to all my friends and family! I also recommend this Honda dealership to you too if you are in the market for a new Honda!

As one of your customers, I recently purchased a 2007 Chrysler Sebring Touring from your company because of my friend Kwame's recommendation. I wanted to say thank you for the assistance you gave me in purchasing the product. I can say that I am greatly satisfied with the car I bought from DCH Academy Honda.I would also like to speak well of your sales representative, Joe Lisciandri, for his great effort in helping me purchase the car I wanted. He assisted me very well by returning my telephone calls and providing me with the answers to all my questions after my test drive. For this reason, I was able to get the right car.Again, I wanted to let you know that I greatly appreciate the effort of your company especially your sales representative. Your great customer service is highly appreciated.Yours Truly,Curtis Ennett

From start to finish we had an incredible experience with DCH Academy Honda. Jennifer Calderon started the process with me through an online chat and made the process of getting a quote away from the dealership the easiest I've ever had! No games or gimmicks. Real prices, with full detail right from the chat. Incredible. Paul worked with my wife and I at the dealer. They completely fulfilled our expectations and beyond.Everything that was told to me through the chat and email was exactly what was followed there at the dealership. Paul Papis then got our trade-in reviewed and came back with an excellent and fair offer in no time. I give DCH high marks across the board and could not have been happier with our experience! From a chat on Saturday to driving home monday afternoon in a brand-new Pilot. Jennifer and Paul (and the rest of the DCH team), thank you!

I purchased a 2010 Honda Civic from Joe L. at Old Bridge Honda on February 4th of this year and was pleased to find a friendly and helpful representative. He explained the car, went for a test drive and signed the final papers to complete the sale. Compared to other dealers and sales people I had encountered in the past, this was a pleasant experience. Since my son recommended Joe L., I felt confident that his two previous experiences were totally justified. He was highly recommended and proved to be the best transaction with the car that I had ever had.

I began by researching reviews for several Honda dealerships near my home and found that DCH Academy Honda as one of the highest rated. I subsequently submitted an internet inquiry and Megan Byrnes got in touch with me. She was fully transparent with the information she provided. Once I arrived at dealrshop, Megan introduced me to Joseph Koedros. Joseph began by having my trade-in physically appraised. He didn't try to push me in anyway, with the price, additional options. Joseph provided a pleasant non stressful buying experience. I spoke with Nitin who finalized the deal. The sales people are straight forward with their prices and try to get me out of there as soon as possible with finance/check out process. I would recommended DCH Academy Honda to my friends and family.

I have been dealing with DCH Dealerships for almost 20 years. I have bought 3 cars from DCH Freehold Nissan, and this is the second car I bought from DCH Academy Honda. DCH never fails to impress. I was looking to purchase a 2013 Honda Accord EX and was willing to walk away if I did not get the right deal. If the test drive was as good as I had hoped for (it was, and much more) I was looking for 3 things to happen: The right price for the vehicle The right price for my trade The right interest rate Academy met me on all 3 and I was able to drive off the lot that day. They provided excellent service throughout the entire buying process, and I am an extremely satisfied customer. It didn't stop there. I unfortunately had 2 small issues with the car, the Sunglass holder had something wrong with the spring, and a very annoying rattle behind the steering column. I waited in the waiting area the day I brought it in for service. They had a TV, and a couple of areas where I could hook up to the internet and work while I waited. The service manager came out and told me he had to order the part for the sunglass holder, and he would need more time to find out why it was vibrating, he was bothered by it and you could tell he really wanted to fix it, he requested to keep the car for the day when I brought it back, they would give me a rental on them due to the fact that I drive all day for work. I got a call when the part came in to set an appointment and they were able to get me in that week. I dropped the car off that morning, got my rental, and they called me up that afternoon that the car was all done. Everything was fixed as stated, no rattle (Thank GOD), sunglass holder opens and closes as it should, and everything was hassle free. It's the simple things that they do so right that make me enjoy dealing with them, and I will deal with them again and again and recomend this dealership and company any time. These days customer service is unfortunately hard to find, so when I come across a positive experience where customer service is good, and the company I am buying from follows through on everything they say as promised, I am happy to take the time to write a review. Buying a car is not fun, I hate doing it. I am very happy that DCH has always treated me well, and they have been consistent with great service for the many years I have dealt with them.

I purchased a 2010 Honda Pilot from DCH on1-26-13 and i must say this was an experience that renewed some faith that I had lost in car dealerships. I saw the vehicle online and called DCH and the sales person David M. answered the phone. Went in an hour and a half later and Dave was a pleasure to work with, he valued my trade and the whole process was pressure free. As a car enthusiast I usually research the vehicle I'm interested in thoroughly so I'm a huge cynic when it comes to sales men trying to sell me a vehicle on its specs which I already know. However David kept it simple and I got a great deal on a low mileage vehicle.Thanks again David. Job well done. I will recommend you guys to friends who might be in the market for a vehicle.

To say that my experience leasing with DCH Academy Honda was a positive one would be an understatement. I began by researching reviews for several Honda dealerships near my home and found that DCH Academy Honda kept popping up as one of the highest rated. I subsequently submitted an internet inquiry and Mark Kamatoy got in touch with me. He was fully transparent with the information he provided, unlike other dealers Ive dealt with who urge that you visit them in person before giving out any information whatsoever. I had a trade-in and just-below-top tier credit (695) and I kid you not, ALL of the numbers were basically communicated to me (including my trade-in value) before I even came into their showroom.Once I arrived, Mark introduced me to Robert Levine. Robert began by having my trade-in physically appraised (came out to the same figure that Mark said it would) and then we took a test drive. Robert may be the most knowledgeable car sales rep Ive ever met. He was telling me things about the Accord that I would have never even thought to question! From the drivers side mirror, to the intricacies of texting through the Accord, to the way the ECON button works, to how to change basically every setting in the car, I felt like he could have been a automotive teacher! When we got back to his desk, I saw at least a dozen, if not more, plaques celebrating his abilities and I wasnt surprised. We discussed some figures, I spoke with Nitin who finalized the front end of the deal and Lily who finalized the back end of the deal. There was never any push to get anything I didnt need or want and everything was explained to me clearly. Once the car was prepped and all the papers were signed, Robert went over everything with me again for clarity. Besides his knowledge of cars, I was really impressed with his people skills. He made sure that I knew when I drove off that if I had any questions even after our deal was done, that he would be happy to answer them.At the end of the day, I got into the showroom at 11:30 AM & and left, in my new car, at 3:30 PM. Might seem like a long time but when you consider that I had a trade-in appraised, a test drive, front-end negotiations, back-end negotiations and my new car prepped, 4 hours is actually not bad at all. I didnt spend a dollar over what I initially intended to spend for a product that is worth so much more and an experience with DCH Honda that has warranted me to put Robert & Marks info into my phone as I fully intend to reach out to them for a new car when my lease expires in 3 years.

This is now the 4th Car we have bought or leased from DCH Honda and the third through Salesperson Robert Levine. We really like DCH. They are a no pressure, customer driven organization. We especially appreciate Robert. He is helpful, knowledgeable, informative and makes car buying (normally a dreaded experience) easy and fast. He listens to his customers and treats them with respect. He met all our needs. We would highly recommend DCH and Robert Levine to all our friends.

We recently bought our Honda Accord 2013 EX-L w/Navi from DCH and the buying experience and process was really great. My wife and I had done significant research on the car that we wanted and the out-the-door price we wanted to pay, so given that the conversation with H.P. (Mr. Harshad Panchal), who was our sales rep, was very straightforward and smooth. He didn't try to push us in anyway, with the price, additional options and protection packages. We had recently (June 2012) bought a Honda Accord 2012 EX-L V6 also from Open Road Honda in Edison and compared to that experience, this was significantly better from a quality of service, lack of pushiness, and price perspective. Further, I prefer it, when the dealership and sales person is straight forward with their prices and try to get me out of there as soon as possible with the sale and actual finance/check out process - and this dealership did exactly that, which I was grateful for.I would definitely go back to them again for future purchases.

Paul Papis was an excellent salesperson, and an extremely knowledgeable and patient one. He was was low pressure, and willing to physically review and travel to assorted inventory of CRV's to help me get the one that I really wanted. The car buying experience, which I ordinarily hate, was quite the opposite with Paul. He also took the time to ensure I was comfortable with the car before driving it off home. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a car.

Their professionalism and knowledge of Honda is exceptional. They treat their customers as family. I will never buy another Honda from anyone else and neither should you. DCH Academy Honda ...

I purchased my Honda Accord at DCH Honda in Old Bridge, NJ. I would like to say a word couple of words and describe my appreciation and thank you so much the services and help i got from Sanjay Chadda. As a sales man he was wonderful and very understanding of my needs and financial situation. Car dealers can be a frustrating and a long process, but with the help i got from Sanjay, it turn out to be a very smooth process. He did the whole process for me and got the best deal possible including finding the best loan for me. He really when out of his way to help me out. (You cant get that from every dealer). Thank you Sanjay and your team for the support and help. I would definitely recommend Sanjay and the used car Dept to anyone that is looking to find a great deals, good customer service, understanding and dedication to needs of other. Thank you again. I love my Honda and i wouldnt change it for any other brand.

My in-laws were in the market for another Honda Accord as they were way over their allowable mileage on their current Honda lease. I contacted Jennifer C. via internet sales and she could not have been more accomodating. We returned to DCH after a pleasant experience on the prior lease and were once again very happy with the transaction. Paul R. sold us the the '13 Accord, but would have been successful on stage as a comedian. Both individuals were honest and worked with us in a straightforward and efficient fashion. I have a Honda dealership in my hometown, but made the trek once more to Old Bridge to avoid their non-sense and actually enjoyed buying a car. DCH was able to reduce the overage on the miles and got us into a beautiful new Accord in about 2 hours. When this one is up, there is no question that we will return to DCH again. Thank you both for everything.

I recently purchased a certified vehicle from DCH Academy Honda. Hands down this was one of the best experiences Ive had purchasing a pre-owned vehicle. Tim Crowley was a pleasure to work with, and his straight forward, sincere, and no nonsense approach convinced me to keep my transaction moving forward. He is a great asset to the DCH Academy team. This experience was even better than my first experience with DCH Academy Honda which means things are moving in the right direction. I would recommend anyone looking for a vehicle to Tim. At the end of the day this was a win-win-win situation for me, Tim and DCH. Thank you

My experience began with Megan Byrnes and an internet inquiry. She was very helpful and the information she provided got us to your dealership. When we got to the dealership we were introduced to Joe Koedros as our salesman. Joe was extremely helpful and his product knowledge was spot on. We comparison shopped at other Honda dealerships but ultimately the decision came down to where and with whom were we the most comfortable. The atmosphere at Academy Honda was very pleasant and up front but the main reason for us deciding on dealing with Academy Honda was Joe Koedros. He made the car leasing experience a very pleasant one. We will definitely recommend him and Academy to our family and friends.Thank you.Frank Mahon

I have been dealing with Academy since 1985 when I purchased my first Honda. Everyone at Academy Honda, sales as well as service is always so accommodating and friendly. My sales associate HP was terrific. He took time to answer my questions and I never felt pressured.When I picked up my new car, he was kind enough to program my cell phone to the blue tooth and even programmed the radio to my preferred stations. I highly recommend Academy Honda and will continue to do business with them in the future.

To The Team At DCH Academy Honda, I did some research on the 2013 Honda CR-V EX-L approx.1 month earlier. I contacted the internet sales dept. and received a prompt and professional response. After my initial questions were answered via e-mail, I later had more questions. I again contacted the internet dept. where my questions were answered without any pressure. When my wife and I arrived at DCH Academy Honda, I had asked for Joseph Guzzo because he was referred to me by TWO guys that I knew who dealt with Joe. ( One leased a new Honda,and the other guy bought one.) When I spoke with Joe Guzzo, he too was professional and knowledgeable. I felt as ease and was under NO PRESSURE. Would I deal with Joe Guzzo again? ABSOLUTELY. To Joseph Guzzo,Nitin Bassi, Lily Li, and Megan Byrnes, THANKS FOR MAKING IT HAPPEN.

We would like to take a couple of minutes to thank Sanjay Chadda for his assistance in helping us find the perfect car. As recent newlyweds it was very important for us to know that we got a comfortable vehicle as we are considering starting a family in the near future. We also wanted to know that we were covered with a warranty for our purchade. Sanjay made it all happened! He did an outstanding job in helping us with the entire process. He was very professional and experienced. We absolutely love our Pilot- great condition. We would gladly recommend anyone interested in buying a car to look for Sanjay- he is an excellent salesman. He made the process quick, smooth and easy. We would like to thank Sanjay and DCH Academy Honda for delivering such great service. We wish you the best during this new year!

As a returning customer, I was surprised to see that the quality of service I received at DCH Academy Honda on my first visit could be exceeded. After the great experience I had the first time I purchased a vehicle at the dealership, I returned to Mr. Beshay, who had sold me the first car. Mr. Beshay went above and beyond and appreciated my loyalty as a customer and wanted to make sure that I walked out satisfied that day. He found me the right car and worked with me to no avail until we reached the right price. He demonstrated textbook professionalism and was able to transform my car buying experience to something exciting and enjoyable. I would recommend DCH acadameny,and especially Mr. Essam Beshay to anybody who is interested in purchasing a new or used vehicle. I have purchased both a new and a used vehicle from him and I could not be happier with my product and my service. In all honesty, I have dealt with a ton of dealerships and salesmen in my time, but these guys are the real deal. NO RIP OFF's, NO GAMES. Once again thank you DCH Academy and a Special Thank you to Mr. Essam Beshay for my new ride.

Dave Mazurek is the main reason on why we bought the car. Last week we nearly bought an MDX from another dealer we were suspicious about the car and the price included many gimmicks, we experienced no such problems with Dave. He assured us that we were buying a very good car without having seen it. His time and consideration were invaluable, as we text and called him on many occasions including his days off. He responded promptly and allayed our fears. Also he took care of a problem with the paint and dents.

Although I did my research months before, I was very apprehensive about looking for a car. As a woman, you have to constantly remind yourself of all of the tricks and schemes that dealers may use to "get over". I have to say that DCH Old Bridge dispelled those feelings. I initially contacted the internet sales department. Mari responded to me very quickly. She was very thorough with her information and patient with my barrage of questions. She even sent me an email detailing the conversation that we had, and the figures that we discussed. Joseph Guzzo was phenomenal. He definitely changed the way I viewed the car buying experience. He displayed the perfect balance of listener and guider. Joseph provided me with many options for my lease, while not making me feel like I was being bullied into something I did not want. He made sure that I was comfortable with the terms of my lease, and went above and beyond to locate the car in the color and trim that I wanted (at a sister location). He even personally drove the car back to his location for me. Vipin was able to make sure that the numbers all made sense for me. Although money talk can be uncomfortable, his sense of humor and professionalism took the edge off. Overall I had an excellent experience at DCH, and I have already recommended some of my family and friends to keep them in mind when looking for a car. With staff that are genuine in wanting to provide excellent customer service, you can't go wrong. Keep up the good work!!

Prior to coming to DCH Academy diealership I did research and communicated with 3 other Honda dealerships in the area. By far the response from DCH was the most attentive and to the point with the questions I asked. Based on that I decided to come to DCH first. Robert Levine was the sales rep I got and he ended up providing me with exact service I was hoping to get. To the point, knowledgeable, offering to me what I was looking for rather than trying to seel what I didn't want. I got adequate advice and was able to negotiate an acceptable to me price for my trade in and the new CRV I leased. I never felt rushed or pressured. I previously owned Honda's and for the past 8 years went to a different dealership (Honda of Freehold). My recent experience there including buying this car has been disappointing mainly from customer service perspective. I will now give DCH a chance to have my service business as well.

My initial interaction with this dealership was with Dave and my first impression was very positive. I submitted information online regarding my interest in a car that I saw listed at this dealership and received a call back within 2 minutes of submitting the online form. Dave was friendly, confirmed that the car was still available and that we could set up an appt. whenever I'm available.Dave was out of the office on the day that I scheduled to come in. However, he arranged for me to work with Sammy in his absence. My experience with Sammy was phenomenal. He was accomadating and kind throughout the process. He was open to us test driving as many cars as neccesary for us to make up our minds. As a result I ended getting a car that I had initially considered. When it came time to negotiate the price of the car, it was more of a friendly, respectful conversation rather than a tense debate.The price of the car that I got was very fair (below Kelly Blue Book) and came loaded with features so I am thrilled to say the least. Because I got financed through a third party, I had to come back a few days later to pay for the car and sign the paperwork. Dimitry handled the paperwork process, and although he was friendly this was the first time in dealing with this dealership that I felt any type of pressure to buy anything - which in this case was the warranty. I negotiated and purchased a warranty however Dmitry had a hard time taking no for an answer when it came to adding Lo Jack to the car. I don't appreciate having to say no more than twice to the same question (regardless of if it's asked in a different way) so that was annoying.Overall, my experience with this dealership was positive. I would definitely recommend Sammy and Dave to my friends and family and will likely go back to them to purchase cars in the future - which says a lot since I live 75 miles away.

Mr Rittberg was wonderful to work with. We had negotiated a fair price prior to my coming in. There was no run around (I.e. "I need to speak to my manager" ). Just a straight forward car purchase. Once at the showroom, Mr, Rittberg walked me through the entire operation of the car. His manner was was warm and professional, and I left ACH Honda feeling great about my new car. I would not hesitate to recommend ACH, and in fAct have given out a couple of Mr, Rittbergs cards.

I had first met with Gerry Bruno and Ruben Arcila for a used Honda Civic EX. Even though we couldn't agree on a price, they were incredibly respectful and helpful. It was that thought that I kept in mind as I went to other dealerships. I went to all of the nearby Honda dealerships in the area and nothing came even remotely close to DCH Honda. I decided I wanted to buy a new Honda Civic instead and requested an internet quote. Megan Byrnes responded almost immediately. Not only did she respond with a quote, but she also answered a few of my questions through email ASAP. At the same time I sent in an internet quote request with DCH, I did so with other dealers. I either never got a response from some of the dealers or it took them days to get back. Megan responded to me twice in a matter of minutes. That sealed the deal for me and I drove to DCH. There, Megan paired me up with Sam. The guy is amazing. The process did take a few hours, as expected, but he was a stud all around. He was ultra knowledgeable about the car he showed me and was very patient and understanding. I got a great deal on the car but an even better experience at the dealership. Lily Li was also immensely helpful on talking about the financing. Overall, it was a great car buying experience. Anyone I know in the market for a Honda is being recommended by me to go to DCH Academy.

I am 65 years old and from my first 1960 Buick Electra 225 purchased in 1964 to the Honda Civic I just leased this December 2012, my insurance company has listed the Civic as my 17th vehicle I have leased/purchased in my ownership lifetime. Usually, acquiring a new vehicle is borne out of some necessity of sorts, much like going to the dentist and usually, just as painful and anxiety-filled for the obvious reasons. However, my last 3 vehicles from DCH Honda and the last two with the same salesman, were, in relative terms, a very pleasant buying experience. It was 'hassle-free' and done very quickly. As a buyer, as most buyers probably, the feeling of being 'gouged' is the tantamount turn-off in the purchase of product. I will definitely return to this dealership at the expiration of my Nissan lease.

DCH Academy Honda provided a very pleasurable and hassle free experience on the purchase of my 2013 Honda Civic. I lost my 2000 Civic to Sandy and I was in desperate need of a vehicle. However, I was not willing to settle for just any car. I wanted the new 2013 Honda Civic EXL. I made many phone calls and e-mails to over a dozen dealers and was very disappointed. DCH Academy was the only dealer to provide truthful and prompt customer service. I received confirmation immediately that the vehicle was in stock from Mark Kamatoy. When I arrived I was greeted by the very enthusiastic and helpful salesman Joe Guzzo. Joe had the keys available and led the way to this stunning vehicle, which I knew I wanted immediately. Joe was knowledgeable and efficient in all aspects regarding the purchase of my Civic. My car was ready for pickup with all the added accessories that I requested. Joe did an amazing job of making this very picky lady happy. I love my new 2013 Honda Civic EXL!! Thanks Joe for being patient, courteous, helpful, and reliable. In addition, Lily Li got me a great rate on my financing and an extended warranty at an excellent price. I love DCH Academy Honda and Joe Guzzo. If you want to be satisfied, please visit this dealer. Just tell them want you want and they will make your dreams come true!

My family and I came to DCH Academy Honda to purchase a used car today. We were greeted within minutes by Joe Lisciandri who was very helpful and knowledgeable. Within 15 minutes we had picked out a car, and within 2 hours we were driving it home. I can't thank Joe enough for making this experience so easy. I will recommend your dealership and Joe particularly to all my friends!

THANK YOU TO PAUL AND LILY WHO HAVE BEEN THE ONLY GOOD THING THAT HAS COME FROM MY SUPERSTORM SANDY EVENT. THEY WERE MOST HELPFUL ESPECIALLY WHEN IT CAME TIME TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO FINANCE MY UNPLANNED PURCHASE. WE WILL BE BACK IN A FEW MORE WEEKS TO BUY ANOTHER. THANK YOU BOTH AGAIN. HAPPY HOLIDAYS AND NEW YEAR.

Got my 2nd Accord from Joe G. Very good team effort by these guys. Of all the many Accords in stock I wanted a combination they did not have on lot. It was apparently no problem from them to obtain from another dealer. No push to get me to get a car on their lot. Very good experience, again.

I had gone to several different dealerships, began to feel frustrated, and just almost gave up hope on getting a new car. My last chance was DCH Academy Honda, I can now say I definitely saved the best for last. I can not begin to explain how helpful Essam (Sam) Beshay was, and how he put me at ease through the process. He was very friendly, and thorough. He made sure that I understood everything, all the paperwork, exactly what I would be purchasing, as well as any questions I had. To top it off, he searched sister stores to locate my dream car in the dream color I wanted. Thanks to Essam I have finally been able to get the 2013 Honda Pilot, the car I have been dreaming about for the past 8 years. I even brought some people with me and they saw the process and how he was very helpful and friendly. They requested his business card and I know we will all be recommending him to others. Thank you Essam for everything! I can't thank you enough!!!

I have given the highest rating to DCH Academy Honda because they treated me like family. After the "Sandy" storm I needed to purchase 2 used cars and was told about DCH Academy. I took the drive up to Old Bridge and was extremely happy to deal with Gerry Bruno and Jennifer Calderon. I would and will recommend this dealership to anyone who is looking for a new or used car. The process was easy and with no hassles at all!!Thank you Gerry and Jen!!

Pail knew the product and was quick to respond to all my needs. I have dealt with thousands of salesmen when I purchased other cars and Paul would rank up with the top as far as friendliness and thoroughness. Thank you, Paul

My son and I visited the dealership with a specific car in mind. Sam greeted us at the door, showed us the car we wanted and less than 30 minutes later we had an agreement of sale. I walked into the dealership fully expecting to be pressured into buying something I really didn't want, or talked into something more expensive. I must say Sammy did NONE of that! I was so comfortable with this purchase, and the entire process was so smooth. When I am looking for another car, I'll be sure to look for Sammy first. Thank you!!!!

I purchased a used pilot from David Mazurek in August 2012. I wanted to let you know of the great service that I received from this employee and his team. I drove over an hour to get the pilot, he pushed his crew to get the car cleaned, serviced and ready for me to take home that day. I was very pleased with the service and the professionalism of Mr. Mazurek. Everything went along as planned. I brought the SUV back for service in November and your service department was great as well. Nicole helped me for service. The pilot was in and out on time. Good Job!!! I almost purchased the SUV from Planet Honda, but they had very poor customer service.

I just bought by second CRV at DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge, NJ. Joseph Guzzo sold me both cars and I couldn't be happier with the buying experience each time. This hasn't been the case in any other vehicle purchase I have made. Joe was able to answer my questions very professionally. Each time I felt that I was able to get a fair price and it didn't require hours of negotiating back and forth. I recommend Joe to any of my friends who are considering purchasing a Honda vehicle. My experience in the service department is very limited, however from what I have seen they are just as professional, from the call to schedule an appointment to the way they treat your car and the friendly greeting you get when you arrive. ll around a very good experience at DCH Honda

This was my 3rd and final dealer that I dealt with in search of my car. I was impressed right from the start after completing on-line interest in the Honda Civic. Unfortunately, the number 5 does not go higher, otherwise I would give a higher rating! Professional, courteous, detailed, friendly, and no "funny business" at all! I am already telling people, "if you need a car, go to this dealer". By far my best experience buying a car! Marian with the internet and calls, Paul the salesman, and Hussain the finance manager. Hats off to all of you! Great experience! No stress at all!

I want to thank Sanjay Chadda for his assistance in helping us find the perfect fit for our little family. Being a new mom it was important for me to feel comfortable in the vehicle along with knowing we are covered with a warranty and that it is safe for my son for the right price of course. Sanjay did a great job in helping us meet our needs and the process was so fast and easy. I absolutely LOVE my new car and would gladly reccommend anyone see Sanjay for sales as well as he made us feel at home. Thankyou Sanjay and DCH for the great experience and we wish everyone at DCH all the best for the Holidays and for the year 2013!

Upon arriving at the dealership Joe was outside and greeted us immediately. We knew exactly what we were looking for and Joe accommodated our needs. He allowed us to view all the cars we liked and gave us our space. He answered all of our questions and reassured us that we would leave with a car that day. We were in a bind because my car was lost during Hurricane Sandy. We had a price that we could afford and Joe made it possible for the deal to happen. The reason why I came back to Honda was because 12 years ago,I purchased the car that was lost in the storm and recall my experience a pleasant one. Last week, I had minor repairs that the car needed and was accommodated immediately with a smile. Thank you! I love my car:)Carmen & Ed Braunsdorf

I spoke to Mark Kamatoy (internet contact at DCH) by phone and told him what I was looking for and asked him to quote his best price. I also contacted several other dealers. Mark emailed me the best quote without my having to haggle etc. over price. I then visited DCH Academy Honda and there was zero sales pressure from my salesman, Ryan Hoey. During the sales process, I dealt with both Ryan and Mark. They both answered all of my questions in detail and made the entire process very easy. I had a car to trade in, and they were flexible with their allowance after a bit of discussion. I am very impressed with the service at DCH and I highly recommend Ryan, Mark and DCH Academy Honda. The price was right, no haggling, and I never felt like I was being taken advantage of. I am very happy with my new 2013 Honda Accord. P.S. I am an insurance salesman myself, so I am very sensitive to sales people turning up the pressure. I can confirm to you that these guys will be completely upfront and respectful of your interests and time, without applying any "selling techniques."

Set up an appointment over phone with Veronica to look at an Accord LX on Saturday. She showed us the car, we didn't like it so she found us another to try. We test drove the Accord and somehow ended up test driving and buying a 2010 Honda CR-V. There was no pressure or game playing. We got a good price on a certified car. Gerry Bruno helped out with the paperwork and was very informative and helpful. The dealership has a nice atmosphere. We kept waiting for some "hidden costs" and they never appeared. Our son will be driving next year and we will go straight to Academy Honda. 5 STAR!!! Dealership. Thank you, we love our CRV.

I had a great experience at this dealership and I attribute it all to Essam. He was extremely knowledgeable, attentive and accommodating. We were looking for a car in a very stressful situation (post Hurricane Sandy) and he acted with complete care and professionalism and at no point did we feel pressured to take any specific car. He really listened to what we were looking for and took the time to explain and point out every feature that was high up on our priority list. We left with a great vehicle and a great experience at DCH Academy Honda - Old Bridge with many thanks to Essam! Best experience at any car dealership to date.

What an amazing experience my family had at Honda thanks to Tim. The process started off with a warm welcome and some quick information of the car, a instant friendly feeling. We were presented with a clear break down of fees that would be included with the final price. He spent the time needed to make sure that things went fine, followed up on phone calls and paper work as needed. A sense of care and genuine concern could be felt. Very pleasant to work with and provided a great customer service. Thanks Tim for making the experience a good one. You're amazing at what you do, keep on the good work. Definitely recommend to friends and family.

Due to Hurricane Sandy, I needed to replace my car and I wasn't looking to spend a fortune. I saw a used Honda Civic online and stopped in to see if it was available. Although that particular car had been sold, the salesman Joe Lisciandri, suggested a similar model and within two hours I was driving home in my new car. Joe took the time to share the vehicle history with me and ensured that I was getting the best price possible, however I did not feel pressured in any way to purchase the vehicle. The paperwork process was quick and simple and I am really pleased with my purchase. My husband's car was also damaged due to the hurricane, so I will be back in the near future. I highly recommend this dealership.

After 10 years and 180,000 miles of excellent service from my 2003 Civic, I returned to DCH Honda and Andy Lau to purchase my new Honda Civic....Andy is the best salesman ever! No one pushed me into buying something that I didn t want and I got exactly what I wanted at an excellent price. My friend who came with me to pick up my new car commented on how great Andy and the rest of the sales staff were and is now considering a Honda for himself from Andy in the future . As a woman purchasing a car on my own 10 years ago alot of car dealers talked down to me and really tried to hard sell me on things that I really didn t want, At DCH Honda, Andy and the staff treated with respect and spoke to me with honesty and with sincerity, which is why I returned to them to buy my next new car. Adding a Lo-jack system was suggested and considering the dicey areas I have to drive to sometimes, a very good recommendation which I took advantage of with a point of purchase discount. (Later investigation confirmed what a great deal on the Lo-Jack I got) I know that my new Honda will last me many years and when the time comes again, I will be looking for Andy Lau at DCH Honda.

I had a wonderful experience in leasing my 2012 Honda Odyssey with the best salesman that I could ever ask for, Sam. Sam was friendly, patient, knowledgeable, and thorough and went above and beyond to make our experience an easy and pleasant one. Thank you Sam and DCH Academy Honda! We love our new Honda Odyssey!

While searching for my next vehicle, I was initially interested in a private-party sale, primarily to avoid the dealership markup. However, after visiting DCH Academy Honda, I found that the dealer markup was worth its weight when I considered the safety checks & general maintenance performed by DCH mechanics. The main drawback in this purchase was the inability to have my personal mechanic look the vehicle over prior to purchase...knowing that all recalls & safety checks were performed made this easier. As it stands, we are very happy in our new car!

From the beginning, when I was looking at DCH Academy Honda website, a chat box opened up & Jennifer Calderon was there to help me with my new car purchase. She offered me a great deal right there. Then Mark Kamatoy send me a followup e mail. I talked to him on phone & he helped me a lot with choosing the right car & price. He even send me the confirmation e mail with price quote & model of the car to avoid any confusion when I visited the dealership to buy the car.Mark was not available at the time,I setup my appointment to visit the dealership. But he provided all information to Joseph Guzzo. Joseph is one great guy. I had my little son with me. Joseph was very friendly with him too. He provided an excellent service & answered every question I had. I never had this kind of service experience at any other car dealership in NJ. When you ask for online quote from any dealership, they invite you to come to the store. But if I could go to the store then I don't need the online price quote. But DCH Academy Honda gave me online quote & provided the best service ever.Joseph Guzzo, Mark, Jennifer & all other staff I interacted with were great, professional, respectful & friendly. It was my pleasure to give my business to this dealership and I'll definitely recommend everyone I know to buy there next car from DCH Academy Honda.

Awesome car buying experience. I have purchased 3 cars in the past year at 3 different dealerships for my kids, and this was by far the best. I worked with a gentleman named David Mazurek (Internet Sales Director) who promptly and professionally replied to my email inquires and got me in the door. No pressure or tacky sales lines from this guy, he was a wealth of information and made the process easy and most importantly comfortable. I did not catch the finance guy's name but I prefer to keep this post positive since I spent a majority of my time with the sales department. I will be sure to return in the future and send anyone I know to DCH Academy Honda

Just bought a certified used Honda Accord this past weekend. Veronica Galluccio was my sales person. She was extremely helpful. I had a set rate of what I wanted to pay monthly and they helped me the best they could to get me there and didn't stop until I was happy and we made a deal. They also gave me exactly what I was asking for my trade in. Everyone is very professional and polite. They made the buying process extremely easy and made me feel comfortable that I was getting a great car. I would 100% go back and buy my next car from them.

We needed to lease a new car and decided on a Honda Civic. We had dealt with DCH Nissan and DCH Toyota a year ago and decided on DCH Academy Honda because of our past experience. We were not sorry. Without doubt, DCH is the best place to go to buy/lease a car and our salesman Sam Beshay couldn't have been more helpful!

Sam was the best salesperson to deal with - highly knowledgeable, great listener. I was concerned about sizing down, Sam listened to all my concerns instead of like some sales people that would have just kept trying to close the deal and ignore my concerns. That really impressed me. I went to another honda dealership a few months back and left totally unimpressed and annoyed. We had Sam's full attention. If you are in the market for a vehicle, I highly recommend DCH Academy Honda and Sam Beshay.

Without a doubt i will recommend this dealership to family and friends. they really do put the customers needs before the car. when we first walked in a lady told us Tim Crowley was "the man" and now after seeing how he does business i can see why he is the man!

Mike was fantastic in every way. He was patient, knowledgeable, and friendly. He was really easy to work with, and his honesty and integrity showed through right away. In the end- we walked out with a car we were happy with.

It was an awesome experience dealing with mark kamatoy, erich tram, tian reid and the whole dch honda team.Mark kamatoy help with me alot by setting up the best deal they could offer in the internet, he is polite and professional, he doesnt play tricks with customers , when i arrived the dealership i was in and out 2.5- 3 hrs. Erich tram walk me from start to finish , he explained everything to me, he is honest, professional and he means business.Tian reid is upront to everything he is for customer satisfaction , he does not force any additional coverage on the car.which in my past experience they will do.Over all i would recommend going to dch honda old bridge.Great job guys!

Joe has been very helping, friendly and cheerful. He helped us clarify all our doubts related to the car. He explained in detail all the features. Most importantly he handled the crucial part of price negotiation very gracefully and in a friendly manner assuring us that we were getting the best possible deal.Nitin also was very friendly and frank in the final negotiations giving us the confidence to purchase the vehicle.Two thumps up for both of them (well they get one individually ;) )

From the moment I walked into DCH Academy Honda I felt a sense of family. Khalil greeted me in a matter of seconds and took care of my every need their after. I never once felt like he didnt have my best interest at heart. Not only did he make me feel comfortable he made me want to share my experience with others. He knew exactly what I wanted and did his very best to deliver, which he did. He helped guide me in my decision and together we were able to find what best fit my needs. I am very grateful for his excellent service and I will be coming back to DCH Academy Honda in the future because of him.

Sam was knowledgeable and worked with us. He provided what many car salesmen do not and that is customer service needed and the comfort zone we appreciated to get the job done. We will visit Sam when our next car need arises and that can be sooner than later.

I have purchased 3 cars from Vipin and each time the experience was very fine. He always guided me to the appropriate car for myself and family. Vipin, Pete M. and Adrian A. have treated me well over the years and all three have gone beyond the call of their profession. I have always remcommed friends to their dealership knowing the honesty and great price they would receive. Bill Liberatore, Monroe Township NJ

THE STAFF AT DCH ACADEMY HONDA-USED SALES GO BEYOND THE "ORDINARY" TO MEET YOUR WANTS AND NEEDS AS A CUSTOMER. THEY TREATED ME AND CONTINUE TO TREAT ME MORE LIKE A FAMILY MEMBER THAN JUST A CUSTOMER. I HAD AN UNFORTUNATE SITUATION WITH ONE OF THE VEHICLES I PURCHASED. SANJAY CHADDAH AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE STAFF - PETER AND ADRIAN TRIED REPEATEDLY TO ACCOMODATE MY EXPECTATIONS. THEY WERE WILLING TO DO JUST ABOUT EVERYTHING I WANTED THEM TO DO, TO BE MADE WHOLE,--EVEN CONTACTING AND DISCUSSING THE SITUATION WITH OTHER DEAKERSHIP MANAGERS.THEY DEFRAYED COST OF SOME OF THE REPAIRS NEEDED, A ND LOOKING FOR OTHER WAYS TO MAKE ME FEEL COMFORTABLE WITH THE FINAL RESULT. WHEN THIS SITUATION WAS COMPLETED, I FELT THE NEED TO STOP BY THE DEALERSHIP AND THANK THEM ALL FOR THEIR EFFORTS AND CONCERN THEY HAD DISPLAYED. THEY SURELY STAND BEHIND THE PRODUCTS THEY SELL AND THEY ARE MEN (AND WOMEN) OF THEIR WORD. I ALSO SHARED THAT I HARBORED NO ILL FEELINGS BECAUSE OF THE SIUTATION AT HAND AND THANKED THEM ONCE AGAIN. I RETURNED WITHOUT HESITATION AND BOUGHT ANOTHER VEHICLE KNOWING ( NOT JUST EXPECTING TO) THAT I WOULD BE TREATED IN LIKE KIND.I RECCOMEND THE DEALERSHIP TO ALL FAMILY AND FRIENDS . I RECCOMEND THE USED VEHICLE DEALERSHIP TO ALL CUSTOMERS.I WOULD LIKE TO ESPECIALLY COMPLEMENT SANJAY CHADDAH FOR ALL HIS EFFORTS TO MAKE ME A HAPPY CONSUMER OF HONDA CARS. HE CONTINUES TO TREAT ME LIKE A BROTHER AND A FRIEND ,NOT JUST ANY 'OLE' CUSTOMER. THAT IS THE EXACT FEELING I LOOK FOR IN SALESPEOPLE. I WAS AN OWNER OF A RETAIL BUSINESS FOR TWENTY YEARS. I WOULD LIKE TO THINK MY EMPLOYEES ALWAYS TREATED OUR CUSTOMERS WITH THE SAME RESPECT, COURTESY AND CONCERN THAT THESE STAFF MEMBERS, ESPECIALLY SANJAY HAVE GIVEN ME!

DCH CAME HIGHLY RECOMMENDED BY A FRIEND WHO HAD BOUGHT TWO CARS FROM YOUR DEALERSHIP AND HAD ONLY POSITIVE THINGS TO SAY ABOUT THE SERVICE PROVIDED. THEY ALSO RECOMMENDED THAT WE REQUEST ERICH TAM AS THE SALESPERSON TO WALK ME THROUGH THE PROCESS. AND ERICH LIVED UP TO MY EXPECTATIONS. I WOULD CERTAINLY RECOMMEND DCH AND ESPECIALLY ERICH TAM AS THEIR SALESPERSON,

Many people consider purchasing a car as a trying but necessary experience. That was far from the case when dealing with Tim Crowley. Tim was very interested in satisfying my requirements for a Certified Pre-Owned Pilot. He was attentive to my questions, and when he wasn't able to answer the question directly, he made sure to get the correct answer from the service department. It was a pleasure working with Tim and I would highly recommend that anyone looking to purchase a used car at DCH Academy Honda be sure to ask for Tim Crowley.

Joe was very knowledgable, patient, thoroughly explained the features of my new CRV,answered and addressed all my questions and put my mind at ease. Purchasing a new car can be very stressful and confusing. Joe helped to make the process a very positive experience. I highly recommend DCH Academy and salesman Joseph Guzzo. You couldn't ask for a better experience!

July 27th I visited DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge. From my old experiences, I was prepared for hours and hours of bargaining, arguing and sales agent running back and forth to his manager every five seconds. But to my surprise, NOTHING of this happened. HP ( our sales agent) was very friendly ready to make a deal , We gave him our budget and our offer he worked on it and we got the deal . All of this happened in about an hour. No bargaining no arguing . It was a very good experience. Staff was knowledgeable, courteous and very friendly. I will recommend this dealer ship to everyone

I visited DCH Academy Honda because I was referred to them by the Costco Auto Program. I live in PA but made the 2 hour drive to NJ to purchase a car. Like most people I had this image in my mind of the used car sales person would be fast talking, high pressure and manipulative. Sanjay Chadda certainly does NOT fit that stereotype. He is easy to talk to, direct and conscientious. He knows his product well and what he doesn't know he is willing to research. He acts like an owner not like an employee. He takes pride in the work he does and makes sure the customer is well taken care of. Even though there is a Honda dealership about 15 minutes from my house in PA I would happily make the 2 hour drive to DCH Academy Honda and work with Sanjay if I was in the market for another car.I would feel comfortable recommending him to a friend.

Great buying experience even though long distance. Trade price and vehicle purchase price all negotiated up front . Used vehicle was in condition as described on eBay . Only issue was wear on front tires and missing tow hitch cover. Hoping the tires pass PA inspection. Finance department and dealer staff all very friendly and professional. I drove 2 hours to get this vehicle and would definitely do business with Dave and Academy Honda again.

I walked into the delaership at 2pm on a Wednesday, had agrrement on a price to lease a 2012 Odyssey EX-L Navi by 3pm, and was driving home in the car by 5:30pm. I knew the price I was looking for and I had my facts, but even so, the week prior I had been to a different local dealership just a few miles south and spent 3 hours on a Thursday evening haggling about the details of the lease since the dealership could not explain an extra $522 dollars in the fees, we agreed to disagree and I left. Their loss. I had no such problems at Academy. Essam and I compared numbers and were able to work out the details to get within $5 of one another in less than an hour. The car was in inventory and after prep and financing I was on my way home in time for dinner. Essam was polite, courteous, and professioonal. He knew the car features and functions. He was able to demo the navigation system and answer my questions before I needed to ask them. This was my second lease at Academy, and I plan to be back in October for a CR-V when my wife's care comes off lease.

My wife and I were seeking to buy a Honda CRV EX model. We looked at 4 dealerships in all. We found Ryan to be pleasant, straight forward and informative. He offered us a test drive and he explained all the details of the cash transaction. We were so relieved that he was not pushy and that he gave us the time to make a great decision. I will tell others of our pleasant buying experience at DCH Academy.

Joe Lisciandri was very down to earth and reasonable. He accepted a coupon, and quickly responded to a concern about a seatbelt. He was very flexible with our schedule, which included getting a trade-in vehicle to the dealership, gettng the title, and getting the down payment arranged.I'd recommend anyone looking at a used / certified pre-owned vehicle work with Joe. They won't be disappointed.

David Mazurek is a pleasure to deal with. I bought a used Lexus from him. That was my first time buying a car on internet and having it shipped. He was really patient in answering my questions and guided me through the entire process. He even recommended a good car shipping company through which I got the car shipped without any problem. Also i would like to mention that they gave me a great price that made it worth buying a car from them though i live in MN. I would recommend them to others and buy a car from them again in the future without any doubt.

Purchasing a car at DCH Academy Honda could not have been any easier! I have previously owned a Honda, which was purchased new, but my parents handled the sales/financial end. This is my first personal experince with car buying and I believe I may have been spoiled!Even my parents who have purchased multiple cars over the years said they have never been treated in such high regard. Paul Papis was very helpful and informative, as well as willing to work with me in finding the right price and options for my purchase. All the people I hear who hate shopping for cars must not have had such a wonderful salesman! I WILL RETURN TO DCH ACADEMY! (as long as paul is there) :) I am very happy with my new car

Joe is the best! I went into Academy Honda on a Saturday to look at a 2010 Honda CR-V and happily drove out with the 2010 Honda CR-V the same day! Joe was more than fair in dealing with me and being honest about the 2010 Honda CR-V. Thank you Joe for not only making my overall experience at Academy Honda a smooth transaction but working with me to get the vehicle that I now driving and love. Pete the Pre-Owned Car Sales Manager and Terry the Finance Manager all deserve 5 stars as well. Without a doubt I would recommend Joe,Pete and Terry and the staff at Academy Honda whether you are looking for a Pre-Owned vehicle or a new Honda. Gotta love Academy Honda!

Mr. Beshay was possibly the most knowledgeable, courteous , and helpful associate that I've had the pleasure to deal with while purchasing a vehicle. He made me feel welcome, he went above and beyond to get me the best possible price on my trade in vehicle, and gave me a great deal on my new vehicle. He didn't only stop there, but he also took the time to walk me through the fine details of future maintenance services that I should be reminded of as well as take on the challenging task of teaching me how to operate the vehicles navigation system. I have purchased 4 new vehicles in the past 2 years in addition to this one, but from other dealierships. If Mr Beshay is any indication to the level of service offered at DCH honda, I can assure you that I will be going to no other dealerships when it is time to purchase my next vehicle.

I started my new car negotiations with Mark Kamatoy. He was very upfront and did not give me the run around, which was much appreciated. I liked how he presented me with the break down of all fees that would be included in my final price. Other dealers tried to avoid this by selling me on the idea of an unbeatable price.When I got to the dealership, Essam (Sam) Beshay finalized my purchase for me. He was very pleasant to work with and provided great customer service. I purchased my car during a busy time (Labor Day weekend), but Sam did the best he could to make sure I wasn't waiting too long.Despite the wait, I had a great experience with this dealership. Everyone was pleasant and easy to work with. I will definitely return to this dealership upon my next purchase.

The financing process was quick and easy, and everyone working with me was enthusiastic and supportive. The price was fair and the car is very fun. Highly recommended!

I went to DCH Academy Honda this weekend looking for a certified preowned car. We were met by Gerry, who was extremely helpful. He offered to help us identify cars in our price range and that fit our specifications, showed us the carfax for each of those, and then was extremely patient while we looked at and test drove several of those cars. What impressed me most was how honest and forthcoming with information he was. I was considering a hybrid vehicle, and although the dealership probably would have profited more from me purchasing that car, he warned us that the warrantee on the battery would expire in about a year, and the replacement cost would have been very expensive. That piece of information led me to choose a different car, and I would never have known to ask about that. Another example of their great customer service--we found a crack in the windshield that escaped their inspection (right on the edge, easy to miss). They have arranged to replace the windshield and have facilitated an easy car pick-up when it's ready. Overall, great people and great selection of cars at great prices.

I went to another dealer last weekend and walked out. All of the bait and switch and tag team antics made me uncomfortable. I purchased my Honda Civic at DCH 9 yrs ago and didn't go there first because of the distance from my home. Went yesterday to DCH and was treated with respect and got a great deal to boot. Will never use another Honda dealer!!!

I was car searching on cars.com for something reliable and fuel efficient when I stumbled upon a 1 year old Honda CR-Z at DCH Academy Honda. I was shown the car by Joe who promptly let me take it for a test drive. After coming back from the test drive, I presented to Joe what I wanted to make a deal and not only did he meet and exceed what I asked for, he did not try to become my best friend or lie through his teeth to sell me the car. He was very straight forward and we took care of business. Joe sold a car and I left happy with a 2011 Honda CR-Z and a good deal.

My wife and I were looking for a certified used honda or toyota. After having visited the DCH Toyota dealership near our house, we were very impressed with DCH quality. At Academy Honda, we looked around the lot for awhile before someone noticed us. When they did we were set up with Joe Lisciandri.Joe is professional, perceptive, and prepared. He made an effort to understand our need and match us up with the car that best suited us. He was able to work around our hectic schedule which we are very thankful for. He was patient and kind and made sure that he answered all of our many questions.As we only looked at certified cars, I can't speak for any other department. However, the manager, Adrian Acosta (?), was decidedly unwilling to negotiate specifically when it comes to cars with a 'red tag'. After being presented with a known issue with the type of car we were going to purchase, they were evasive and reluctant to recognize our concern regardless of its actual validity. It took some doing to get anything out of them to address our concern. However, we are thankful that they did eventually help us out. Joe, however, was always in our corner and did everything in his power to help us.Dmitry helped us with our financing. As far as I could tell, he was the only finance officer at the time and there was at least a few other customers behind me when I entered his office. Possibly because of this fact, he seemed impatient and I felt rushed. He verbally appreciated my apprehension and desire to methodically make our way through the paperwork, but he acted a bit frustrated. When it came time to show us the options available to extend the warranty or add other services, he exerted a lot of pressure. I felt as though he was being condescending and as such I felt pressured. This was not an ideal experience and I did not feel 100% comfortable.Overall it was a good experience. Would recommend. If you need a pre-owned Honda, Joe Lisciandri is your man. Despite my critiques, Academy Honda was the best dealership we visited and the staff was very friendly. They were very busy both times we visited, but I still felt like we were the only ones there with the level of service we received. We had no qualms about driving over 35 minutes and would recommend to any friends/family who need a new/used car.

Joseph Koedros answered all questions and concerns about leasing our 2012 Honda Civic honestly and I would seek his assistance again in the future when my lease is completed. It was a long process, but Joe helped with his humor, knowledge and great personality. The actual dealer location was easily accessible with ample parking spots. I took a look at the service location and was also impressed. They have a high quality waiting area as well.

Mr. Khalil Quraishi was very nice and polite. He made sure that our family was in good care. He kept on asking if we wanted food or beverages to make us feel like we were part of the honda family. He also never showed attitude while showing us the vehicles. In our new honda pilot we'll always remeber him.

What made the buying experience even greater was working with Paul Rittberg at DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge, NJ. His professionalism, candidness, and demeanor was something you hope to see from every car salesman. He really made the whole care buying experience a breeze and I would definitely recommend to anyone out there looking to get a new care to go see Paul. You will not regret it.

He was very kind and understanding of all of our concerns. This is my fifth Honda Accord and I will surely go back to buy a sixth. I would definitely highly recommend Honda, the DCH dealership and specifcally Joe Lisciandri to all my friends and relatives when they start to look for a car.

I purchased a honda crv in 2007 from Andy Lao, and Andy was really Great! I do think I got a very good price from him which is very important to me, and I always go back for service, and they are very, very good to me as well. Whenever Im in, I always stop and say hi to him. When it was time to buy another car, I went back to dch. Andy had to leave that day so Joe Scardigno sent me to Eric Tam. Who was very, very informative and patient with me and a gentleman. He spent the time I needed and followed up on phone calls and went out of his way for me. Thank You Erich! Joe was instrumental in my purchase and I cannot thank him enough for every thing. I also worked with John Nguyen who was a great guy and helped me with the car when I needed something with the car. Thanks John! Hussain Nawaz also helped me get the best warranty that was right for me. So far I sent at least 6 friends and family to dch. I got to say they were Great, I would go back, and I travel from Staten Isl. to jersey to do my business.

I bought my car from Tim and he was great all around. I got a nice test drive and inspection of the car and was in and out in about 3.5 hours. I was able to drive home with the car which was great. So far my experience with Tim and this dealership has been great. I will update this review in the future if I need to.

Awesome dealership. John gives the best prices and is as honest as could be. After having to deal with two other honda dealerships DCH was the best by far. John and Khalil did everything possible to get me into a Honda pilot, and gave the best price despite a hiccup with my credit. Highly recommend.

Megan Byrnes, Scott Vollweiler and Hussain Nawaz made purchasing our first car very easy! Megan was very friendly and made sure we had everything we needed before we got there making things much easier. Scott was very informative and patient with us. He made sure we understood everything about the car and told us many things we didn't know being it was our first car we were purchasing through a dealer. Hussain helped us out with getting us the best rate possible and also answered all of our questions that we had. Thank you all for making buying a new car hassle free, we love our new car and will recommend DCH to all of our family and friends!

Im very pleased with my new Honda Accord from DCH Academy Honda. We first contacted the Internet sales department, but ended up spending 4 hours at the dealership,sold our old civic and bought new Accord,all time very well spent. We never felt hurried or pressured.We were introduced to Sam Beshay and he was very helpful.He is very honest and has absolute passion in the job.

Received excellent customer service for my new Accord. Paul Marques was terrific; very personable, friendly and knowledgeable. He was very helpful in helping unload car I was turning in; even found items/documents I totally forgot were in the car and gave them to me. Appreciated all his assistance in making this a no hassle, pleasant experience.

I have never had such a pleasant experience buying a car, I'm still shocked! I had a horrible experience 8 years ago purchasing a Mitsubishi, and was afraid and kept pushing off buying a new car because of that. Im glad a friend recommended DCH Honda. Everyone is so friendly at DCH, the team atmosphere and warmth is priceless, keep up the great work DCH Honda!The response time from the internet sales department, Jennifer Calderon, was amazing! When I am interested in a car, I want to get details on it ASAP, or i lose interest. She sent thorough information and called to follow up immediately, LOVE IT!Sam was so respectful of our time, our needs and wants and was friendly and patient with our 2 young kids. He is veery knowledgeable and helpful in making decisions on which car to buy.DCH has aggressive pricing, and that is why they have huge volume, it is sooo busy in there.THANK YOU DCH!!!!!!

In the past I have had the worst experience with car dealerships. I have dealt with everything from getting one price over the phone to not even getting the car I really wanted.. BUT!!!! Last night all that changed and I really like to thank Paul Markques & Hussain Chaudary at DCH for really making me feel appreciated. The level of customer service I received yesterday was truly amazing. They made sure I was truly satisfied with my new vehicle. I am so very happy I decided to go in and check out my options with DCH Academy Honda. I am now driving in style with a HUGE smile on my face :) you guys really ROCK!!

Bought Several cars from this dealership because of outstanding experience. They listen to you as client not as customer and make buying and service process easy. If you have chance to go to service deal with Nichole, she will be one of best service advisor to work with... lots of positive energy and motivated to help.

I had the pleasure of dealing with Mr Vipin Rishi. He was very informatiive and patient with my wife and I. We started off looking for a used car, but finally purchased a new car. The process was flawless and professional. I will be purchasing a new car in 3 years for my daughter and I will be coming back to this dealership. I live less than a mile from Kay Honda, but I preferred Academy for their professionalism.

my wife and i purchased a Honda FOUR years ago from Metro Honda in Jersey. the process was horrible but we got the car anyway. now it is time to trade in and we went back last month. their manors, procedures and all around service is even worse. it was a degrading experience so we walked out. then we went to DCH Honda. we could not have felt more respected and important. we are experiencing some financial issues and we needed someone to try and look past that and give us their best offer. the sales person "HP" and Finance guy "Hussein" were amazing. they were polite, efficient and professional. we leased a car for three years and rest assured we will be back when our lease is up.

I leased my 2009 Civic with DCH Academy Honda and when my lease was up I called most of the Honda dealers in the state shopping around looking for a great deal. I got more than I ever expected getting. I was more than happy to continue doing business with DCH Academy Honda. They made it very easy and they worked with me to get a deal that was fair and economical. They took into consideration my loyalty of staying with them through another lease, and I look forward to finance an Accord with them when my lease is up. Paul Rittberg was friendly and personable. He made it a very easy going process and was very patient with my requests. I wont be specific about Price but I definitely saved a lot of money on this deal and it worked out very well for me. His willingness to make me go home happy was a key ingredient to making me want to return to do business with DCH Academy Honda in the future.

LucillePuggy Ng (You) reviewed in the last weekI am the third member of my family to purchase a car with Erich Tam. This time I went there to start my car shopping, but intended to go to another dealership (Hyundai) to compare prices. I never went with my family, so I never had any interaction with Erich. Within the first half hour, I knew that he was the one, and made up my mind to buy a Honda! He was very honest, sincere and had his own personal experiences with Honda. My daughter and son-in-law came with me to pick up my new Honda Cr-V. My son-in-law said from that day, that he will always purchase his future cars from Erich, no matter what dealership he goes to!! Thank you so much, ACH Academy Honda for making my car buying experience top-notch!!!

I walked into the dealership looking for the game that dealerships normally play. I had a trade-in for the 2012 Odyssey (Touring). Much to my surprise, the negotiations were so smooth and non-confrontational. I felt comfortable knowing that I was getting a good deal. More importantly, I was treated fairly. Sam took the extra time to explain all the neat features of the car (even stuff we never thought existed!). A follow up phone call the next day was even more surprising. Sam wanted to know if I had any questions about the car and to see how I like it. This is the fourth Honda I have ever purchase (the other three were different dealers), and this was by far and away the best experience for purchasing a car.Sam Beshay was friendly and knowledgeable. I would definitely recommend Sam Beshay for a sales rep when purchasing a car.

I first emailed the dealer and I received a reply that night, the next day Joe Lisciandri called me and we arranged a time for me to stop by on that Saturday. When I arrived Joe was available and was very friendly and made the car buying experience very pleasant and stress free. Joe even walked me over to the cashier window and stayed even while I had to call my bank to set up the down payment. If I purchase another Honda in the future, I own two 2009 Honda's now I would return to DCH and request Joe to be my salesman.

I had bought my first New Car at Academy Honda back in '96 and I thought that the experience could not have been better. I was wrong, recently I found myself in the position where I needed a car and revisited Academy. Our buying experience could not have been better. Not only was the price below than what we expected but the team work of Jennifer, Joe and Lilly of making the process of buying a new car smooth, plesant and fast was excellent. Thank You Academy for taking the stress out of buying a new car !George J. Kevett

I would trust my life to the guys at DCH Academy Honda. We just drove home with a Honda we bought on-the-spot. Sales manager John Nguyen is second-to-none. Not only did he have a solution to every practical problem we raised -- door guards to protect against New York city dings; bike storage on a Honda Civic; ways to get more room out of the trunk -- but he offered an amazing deal that included extra insurance coverage for exterior and interior wear-and-tear. The dealership is part of a massive chain owned by a Chinese business consortium. And they have brought buying a car into the 21st century. The showroom is organized like a small office, and if you call ahead to say your'e coming, you'll be greeted by a concierge who will take you to a salesperson. By the time we'd negotiated the deal-of-a-lifetime, also supported by a long-time salesman named Robert Levine, we needed help understanding all the newfangled technology. A sales guy named Mike spent more than an HOUR with me as I sat learning about voice-recognition and the 700 voice commands in our new Civic. We've all had miserable experiences buying cars, but that will not happen here. You will be treated like a human being; you won't have to haggle to get a deal; and, if you lease (which I'm doing for the first time), the terms will be explained with 100% transparency. It was well worth the trip from Brooklyn to avoid the dealers in the city. Go here, to New Jersey. I am still in heaven.

Overall great experience! Was referred to the dealership and specifically to Paul by a co-worker who recently leased a 2012 Accord. I went there not expecting to close on any deal, but Paul was very easy to do business with...no haggling, no high pressure, and gave us a great price that we could not resist. I highly recommend this dealership and Paul Papis, and will definitely be referring friends, family and co-workers.

I love cars. Car-buying, not so much. However DCH Academy Honda does a great job at making the process simple. Paul was easy to work with - took us for a test drive, gave us a chance to ask questions, and did a great job explaining all the features of the car. We ended up leasing a 2012 Accord sedan at a price very close to what we had in mind walking in. I had since recommended Paul to a coworker and I hear she leased another car from him!I really appreciate the fact that no one asked for a guarantee that I will "take the car home today" when talking about the price. I was not rushed and there was no pressure - reason enough to go back to them for a future purchase. Thanks Paul, Nitin and Hussain.-Sam

Joe was really willing to work with me and find a car that fit my needs and price range. I came to the dealership with a car at another Honda already picked out and was merely making sure it was the best car; he was able to find a better car with better miles at a lower price. He worked hard for the sale and earned it. I would definitely recommend going here, and make sure to ask for Joe Lisciandri at the used car office(there's two other Joe's working there).

I was exrremely satisfied. I bought a caar from DCH Honda 3 years ago and my salesman was Andy Lau. In all of my prior experiences buying new cars, I always felt agitated. I always believed that buying a new car should be a "pleasant" experience. When I dealt with Andy Lau, it was truly a "pleasant" experience. When it came time for me to buy another car for another son, I started looking at dealers in Connecticut because that was where my son was moving. I began the process of getting prices from some dealers there, but then called DCH Honda in new Jersey to see if they would be able to work out the complexities of buying a car in New Jersey and registering it in Connecticut. When I called DCH Honda looking for Andy Lau, Mark Kamatoy answered and helped guide me through the process and gave me a quote that was better than the dealers in Connecticut gave me. Knowing that I had a good prior experience with Andy Lau, Mark assigned the deal to Andy even though he did some of the upfront legwork. This is a true sign of teamwork and DCH Honda should be proud of them. I will return!

I had very bad experiences with car dealerships in the past so I was very scared . This changed the moment I entered in DCH. We were welcomed within 10 seconds of arrival, Harshad was with us in 30 seconds and it took him about 2 minutes to make us feel at home . We bought my beautiful Honda Accord within lets see finish to end 40 mins . They stayed overtime for processing with a big welcoming smile. Thanks to Harshad, Nitin, Freddy Mateo and Jennifer we got an amazing deal,They worked with us to fit everything we wanted in the price we wanted. Thank you DCH oldbridge.

We have been long time customers of the dealership and this was the first time we purchased a used car from them. We have bought several new cars and have serviced for many years. We were very concerned about buying a used car due to a bad experience we had with Toyota in Freehold years ago. We were very fortunate to meet Ed Moy at DCH Honda and he restored our confidence in shopping for a used car.He helped us in locating a lovely 2007 Honda Accord with low mileage and in excellent condition. He was able to offer the car to us at a very competitive price with the backing of Honda warranties. His manager Pete was also wonderful - making every effort to make the sale a good experience.I would encourage anyone seeking a used car looking for an honest reliable salesperson to contact Ed Moy. He is a warm and caring person who will make every effort to match a client with the right car.

I am always leery about going into dealerships to look at cars because most places the sales people attack you the minute you walk through the doors. Not at DCH Honda. The people I dealt with were helpful, friendly and very informative. They did not pressure you into anything you did not want. So I would definitely recommend this place to anyone.

I found Mr. Crowley to be very helpful in finding a car to suit my needs. He is knowledgeable and generally very pleasant to deal with, explaining or demonstrating very clearly every question I had. He also kept me well informed about the progress of the paperwork, and the whole transaction was handled very efficiently. My brief contact with others in the office was equally pleasant. I have already recommended this dealership to several friends.

Though I recently decided to purchase a Hyundai Elantra (from another dealer) instead of a Honda Civic, I'd still like to post a review for DCH Academy Honda because of our excellent sales experience.Our salesman was Ryan Hoey and I heartily recommend both him and this dealership for their professionalism throughout the car-buying process. In fact, I'd like to take a step back to thank internet consultant Jennifer Calderon as well. I first contacted Academy Honda a few months back for an online quote on a 2012 Civic. She provided a prompt and straightforward quote from her for the car. In addition, I expressed to her my desire to NOT be contacted until the summer months (since this was just preliminary research on my part back around March/April); in fact, I told her I would be in touch when I was ready to pursue a test drive. And thankfully she honored my request without the requisite follow-up e-mails or phone calls that other dealers often will do.On the day of our test drive, we had Ryan Hoey show us the Civic's features and then he accompanied us on our test drive. Ryan is courteous, informative, and a pleasure to work with. I specifically asked for him because in 2011 we were shopping for a minivan and he helped us look at the Odyssey (though we decided on a Toyota Sienna).So although in both instances we chose a vehicle other than a Honda, I can assure you that I heartily recommend Ryan Hoey as well as the Academy Honda dealership. I bought my 2001 Accord (which I traded in for my new Hyundai Elantra) at Academy Honda and I will always consider this dealership in the future as I shop for cars because they are very honest and up-front. None of the games you get from many other dealers. They make the entire car-buying process comfortable for the prospective buyer; you don't feel like someone's trying to hoodwink you nor do you need a shower after a visit to the Academy Honda showroom. And lastly, I should mention that their prices are excellent...so that's yet another reason to consider shoppping there.Sorry we couldn't do business this time (on last year's Sienna purchase or this year's Elantra purchase), but your excellent sales experience just may earn my business NEXT time. And it certainly inspired me to write this review on your behalf. Because you deserve the unbiased, favorable words.

Everything is completed very quick and i was able to take the car on the same day.All in all he is the best i should say!!!I would recommend this sales person and dealership to anyone who wants to buy a new car.

This is my second car in a month with DCH in Old Bridge and I actually spent the time with funny, professional and most of all HONEST people. They answered all questions whether by phone or in person to the tee. Not the normal stuffy dealership. They ALL worked together to meet ALL my needs without alot of back and forth.Not to mention you will never find a HONDA cheaper than DCH Academy Honda. Dont waste your time just go here!!!!!!!!!!Linda and NickLove this dealership

This dealer is quite awesome and will provide good customer support aswell. Go for it.. Thanks Ryan Hoey

I started contact with DCH over the internet and they responded promptly and with an "How can I help you" attitude. They basically were agreeable to what I wanted-up to a point. I promised myself to go to three different dealers and DCH came out on top. When I got to the dealership everything that was discussed either on the internet or by phone was there waiting for me. There was no back and forth haggling if I asked for an additional item the answer was always "let me see what I can do". I told them that I was giving my current van to my son and would need a ride from my home to DCH to pick up the new car. Mr. Beshay said no problem you tell us when you can come and we will pick you up. When I did come in all the paperwork was ready for me and a tutorial about the new car was given to me by the salesman and then by the finance manager. At no time was there any change about what we had agreed on and when I went out to see the new car everything was there as requested. I had a very good experience at DCH and would certainly recommend this dealer to anyone of my friends.

In my opinion, Sam delivered a memorable customer experience. I live in CT, but purchased my car in NJ....so I was nervous all the way around. However, Sam was so knowledgeable and thorough with the process and his follow-up that the transaction was quite painless! Sam was a pleasure to work with because of his patience and the fact that he is very personable. Sales and customer service is not an easy profession. I should know because that is my field of work as well. Sam created a welcoming environment and I am so satisfied with my purchase! If I ever by another Honda, I will be calling Sam again!!

All the three individuals I met were excellent. This is the second time I am buying from DCH in one year. It is waste of time to go and research in the market as DCH gives the best quote you can imagine. The sales representatives are also very friendly and they work with you. I really loved buying it from this dealer and will definitely recommend to anyone.

I have been leasing Honda Accords for the past twenty years and several years ago I moved to East Brunswick and was having my Honda Accord serviced at DCH Honda in Old Bridge. As my lease was coming to a close, I decided to go to DCH and find out what kind of options were available to me for leasing a new Accord. Sam Beshay was so helpful and explained all the options available to me. Based on that information and a great leasing deal, I decided then and there to turn in my 2010 Accord for a new 2012. The entire leasing transaction -- from walking in the door to driving away in my new 2012 Accord -- took less than two hours!! What an easy and pleasurable way to do business. The previous Honda dealership that I was dealing with in Northern NJ couldn't hold a candle to the great customer service that I received at DCH. Thanks, DCH for a job well done!!!

I picked this dealer ship based on this website, after I did my homework... It was so true, DCH Honda was truly the best experiance I had buying a used car. I never felt pressured or scammed like I did at other dealerships. Veronica worked with me over the phone and on the web and Gerry worked with us when we got there. They are very honest and worked with our needs. Not cut throat for a sale, everyone worked together and answered our questions even if they were not our sales person. It was alittle out of our way but worth the extra drive to get there. They beat all other Honda dealer prices and made this experiance fun for our family. Dont waste your time just go to DCH Academy Honda!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Thanks Gerry and Veronica (and all your staff)The Suffy Family

I recently purchased a Honda cr-v from dch academy honda. I was very happy with the service I received from salesman Joe Guzzo. He was very knowledgeable and answered all my questions. He went over the manual with me and showed me all the new features on the cr-v.I have been buying hondas for 20 years and have never had such a good experience. Joe is very friendly and patient. I highly recommend Joe Guzzo and DCH Academy Honda. I will be encouraging my friends and family to purchase their cars from DCH Honda. Thanks again Joe. Sincerely, Robert Curcio

I asked for a quote via email and got it right away. Went to the dealership and was helped by two very professional sales consultants, Vipin Rishi and Adrian Acosta. Along with their support staff, they made sure all the paper work was ready and that I understood everything I was signing. And the car, perfect. Thank you for making it a pleasant experience.

I felt the salesman was genuine, and tried to get us the best deal possible. He wasn't hard selling us, and not pressuring us either.He was informative and so very pleasant that he really put us at ease during the time we were there. The reason I gave a 4 instead of a 5 for quality of work is not because of the salesman himself, but because the support staff took a long time to prep the car, and the finance guy forgot to ask for the title which caused unnecessary trip to DMV for me. The reason for the 4 on price is (of course like anyone would), I was hoping for a better price for my trade-in, and the final cost of the car.

I went in on a Saturday to obtain information on Honda Accord lease deals. Erich Tam greeted us and at first he was very friendly and nice, giving me and my family all information about the cars, inventory, and lease information. When I asked him if we can work out a better lease deal he simply rejected us with no hesitation. After we discussed among ourselves we decided not to lease the car from him and decided to leave the dealership. That's when he started to change his face, he did not say anything rude to us but his expression showed us all. I had purchased and leased many cars from DCH dealerships and my experiences had been generally nice, this is the worst experience so far. I would visit this dealership again but not purchase from this guy. He's a nice guy when you complete a deal with him, not so much if you don't complete a deal with him.

After having visited over 8 to 9 high volume / award 'winner' / so called low price dealerships - the buying experience at this dealership is such a welcome relief.We purchased a certified 2010 CRV from these folks which was priced very right to begin with. There were so many distinctive factors which did deliver customer happiness as promised in their motto.. a) Right price : Vehicle was priced very competitively to begin with - you could not find anything else, on autos.yahoo.com, cars.com, which was significantly cheaper.. b) Sales Team: Sammy Lucas and Veronica ... folks who listen to you before selling you what they want. No other dealer began their sales pitch by presenting us the form asking about what matters to us. Right from the beginning Sammy kept us at ease and managed the the entire sales process with great reassurance. Sammy is very Personable, Patient, Very Friendly, Very Reasonable to deal with and Highly Recommended Sales guy. If you are in the dealership - say hi to him and I am sure you would end-up choosing him to be your sales person. c) No hidden surprises: We called up in advance to inquire about the fees that they charge - and they surprisingly lived up to what they said on the phone - no surprise fees d) Purchase Memo - I have not seen a purchase memo so clearly laid out and not containing any surprise fees and charges.. anywhere else. e) Finance Team - was very prompt friendly and helpful. Overall great to find someone like DCH honestly trying to deliver value. They are for the keeps - and I am gonna be out recommending DCH dealership, and Sammy to all my friends and family. Way to go guys! Shine on!

He has a great attitude and persona clearly shown in his job. It was a delight and satisfaction working with him. I would recommend him, and DCH Honda without reservation. I look forward to my next car.

I went into DCH because they had advertised a special lease deal on a Odyssey LX. I went into the dealership with my two small and had to wait ten minutes to be seen. I then proceeded to wait an hour for the dealership to my trade in. I was fed up and was packing up to leave when all of a sudden they had my trade in value. They low balled the number and then finally agreed to break even on my payout but on doing so they started adding in extra fees on the lease deal. I was then quoted a price that was reasonable by Nitin. I was also quoted on an EX, as I went outside to check out the LX. Nitin came outside and told me that the lease deal on the Lx just went up 30 dollars a month. I felt this was a ploy to get me into the EX for just thirty dollars more as he put it. I went into the dealership with a quote and when I got there they played too many games and lost a customer forever. I bought my 2007 accord from them and I expected a better experience. Marcia was very nice with my kids but the deal I was presented was full of games.I wouldn't recommend the new sales department to anyone.

Paul Rittberg's knowledge, experience and professionalism made our car-buying experience a happy, worry-free one. Every detail and explanation was attended to during the process. The same can be said for Lily Li as she completed the financial aspect of the transaction. As repeat customers, we would definitely recommend Academy Honda to prospective carbuyers.

We visited the dealership for a new Odyssey. Called before to check if they are busy since its a memorial day weekend. Dealership informed that they are light until 1pm, so went right away by 12:15. We had a trade-in and it was taken out for an assesment around 12:45. Kept waiting until 1:15 with no salesperson assigned to us and no hope of even someone working with us. So after waiting for an hour with no progress, we wanted to check out what our trade-in was assesed at and decided to leave. Dealership told that they would be calling us within next day or 2 but haven't even had a courtesy call untill now (a week later).I think when choosing a dealership, the most important thing other than price is how well they can handle the customers. Now a days there's not much price difference between dealers as they compete online to attract customers to their store. I would suggest to choose someone who can handle traffic and probably choose a weekday to do your shopping.

I have purchased or leased 43 cars in my lifetime and this has been one of the most pleasurable and least complicated deals I have ever made. Sam and his managers were a delight to deal with and they went out of their ways to make sure I was satisfied. Price, terms, and conditions were all met. Sam was extremely friendly, knew his stuff, and did not pressure me in any way. The whole experience was like sitting and talking to a friend about cars. It was a totally enjoyable experience and I highly recommend Sam and the dealership to anyone looking for a car. I look forward to many more purchases from them on behalf of me, my family, and my friends!

I had the pleasure of having Sam as my sales person and it was a great experience from start to finish. He really knows his stuff and is a top notch salesperson. DCH Honda in Old Bridge is extremely fortunate to have him on their team. His expertise, patience and kind nature makes you feel confident he has your best interest at heart. You know right away you can trust him. I will continue to refer family and friends because of Sam.

He was very kind-hearted and spirited as soon as I sat in the chair. He went above and beyond to do make the impossible, possible! I had a great experience thanks to him and can't wait to refer him to the rest of my family and friends!

Sam was wonderful! He greeted me with nothing but kindness. From moment one I felt at ease and at home. He explained everything he was doing and kept us in the loop along the way. It is hard to find excellent customer service and Honda has a gem in Sam. I can't express enough what a pleasure it was to deal with such professionalism. I rate him as exceptional. I would send my family and friends to Sam without hesitation because I know they would be in the best possible hands. I had a bad experience at a Honda dealer in freehold no and he restored Honda's reputation in my eyes. Thanks Sam for all your hard work and dedication to making your customers a life long customer. Job well done.

This was my second time back to DCH since my last purchase in Dec. 2007. Definitely would recommend to friends; our salesperson,Marcia Dietrick was pleasant and courteous. My purchase 2012 CRV-EX/Trade-in went satisfactorily. Although we came prepared to do business, finalizing the deal and the documentation process was quick and "painless"...which avoids repeated trips to the dealership. Bottom line; a "positive buying experience" at DCH Academy Honda.

This is the 2nd vehicle I have purchased from DCH. My first experience was in 2005 when I bought a new Odyssey. That was a good experience. This time I was looking for a certified pre-owned Civic EX for my son. We had scanned the DCH website and found a Civic EX-L that we liked and then stopped in to look at it.Ed Moy worked with us and was very professional. Unfortunately, there was a deposit on the Civic which was priced as a manager's special so we were a little disappointed. However, Ed checked for other cars and found another that we didn't see on the web and it was a year newer and had 19K less miles on it and was only $500 more. It was also a newly added manager's special. The car condition of the car was like new and we took it out for a test drive. My son fell in love with it immediately and it was definitely a great price based on my research on the web. Ed was also able to get me a fair trade-in deal on my son's old Maxima so he saved me from the hassle of selling it on my own.Couldn't be happier with the way everything went. Very pleasant experience buying from Ed. He really made sure all of our needs and questions were answered. There was no pressure to buy and everything was explained in detail. The price quoted is what I paid, no hidden extras or last minute surprises. You can be certain that if you buy a certified pre-owned vehicle from DCH, it will be a great vehicle. I would very much recommend DCH and Ed Moy.

If there was an even higher rating, I would give it to Paul Rittberg. His attention to us throughout the leasing process was unlike any I have ever experienced throughout all of my 45 years. I appreciated his direct eye contact and the clarity with which he explained everything. He never once rushed through any of the components of the process. Also, when we spoke, he listened. I'm very impressed with his demeanor, and I must add that his sense of humor made the whole experience enjoyable. I never thought I'd feel that way about going to a car dealership. The level of comfort and confidence that he provided was very quickly apparent, and I will definitely tell everyone I know that they can count on that when they visit Paul.Dmitry Rybakov took the mystery out of "going down the hall to finance." Usually, I'm quite overwhelmed by such matters, but he made it go so smoothly. Like Paul, he did not rush through any of the components of the process. He really wanted me to know what everything meant, and I really appreciate that. Being a customer is sometimes difficult these days, with everyone in such a rush, and sometimes you have no choice but to put up with it. I'm glad to see that the people at Academy Honda have a different philosophy, and I want everyone to know about it. I'm not just saying these things to write a review. Actually, I never write reviews because, being self-employed, I just don't have the time. Here, I feel that I should give credit where credit is due.Thank you, Paul and Dmitry, for caring about your customers. It will not be forgotten.Joyce

Essam Beshay is a very knowledgeable, patient, and honest salesman. I contacted him based on a friend's positive recommendation, and Sam did not disappoint. Right away, he gave me the best price amongst four different dealers I emailed. There were no hidden fees, no gimmicks, and no games. He took the time to explain the myriad of trim levels, features, and differences between the Accords. There was no pressure during the buying process. Thankfully, Sam was able to secure the color combination I wanted despite the limited available inventory at the time of purchase. My family and I were able to walk-in and drive-out with a new Accord within a couple of hours, at closing time on a Friday night no less. Overall, Sam provided the best price coupled with a no-hassle busying experience.

Went to DCH ACADEMY HONDA on a weekend in 2009 and i saw a blue honda civic parked next to the office and i liked it alot. While looking at the car Sanjay approached me and helped me out with the car and took me in a test drive to see if i liked it and it turned out i did. After the test drive went in the office and did the paper work and with Sanjay the process was so easy and helpful. Sanjay knows what he is talking about with cars and helping you to get the lowest price on the car as well as helping you out with insurance and banking process. Anyone who wants to buy a car should go to Sanjay Chadda at DCH ACADEMY HONDA OLD BRIDGE NEW JERSEY.

I drove 4 1/2 hrs to look at a used car. This was March 30th, 2012. After deciding on which vehicle I wanted to purchase, the problems began. I told them (prior to making the 4 hr trip) what price I was willing to pay, and that I would not go over a set monthly payment. I ended up walking out after they brought me the 3rd or 4th paper print-out of their offer. And Joe just kept saying look we now took "X" amount off the price. But in actuallity they upped the purchase price, so it looked like they were taking more off. Ok..so business is business and I understand that. I ended up purchasing the vehicle. Next. I live in NY. They issued me a 20 day temporary registration. Joe L. told me a week before it expired I would get a call to make arrangements to mail my permanent plates. I received no phone call. I started calling 5 days before it expired. At first I spoke to the receptionist. She said they were not in. So I tried again 2 days later. I was told they still were not in. The day before it expired I called again, explaining that the temp tag expired the next day. The receprionist stated she was going to put me on hold and call the DMV. "Somehow" I got hung up on. I called back and was put on hold and hung up on again. I then called and asked to talk to Joe Lisciandri's supervisor. I explained the situation to Pete. He then said he would check with DMV himself. He put me on hold, and I got hung up on again. I called back again and got connected with Pete for a 2nd time. He then proceeded to tell me that "There was nothing he could do. The plates were hung up in Albany. And the only thing he could offer was to pay my fine, if I received a ticket for expired tags" I told him this was unacceptable, I have done everything I was suppossed to, and I have never had a ticket in my life and they needed to make this right. He told me again that they could only pay for the fine if I got a ticket. I then asked to speak with his supervisior. He informed me that Adrian did not come in until later that day. I said I would call him then.In the meantime I personally spent 2 hours on the phone with New York State DMV. When I finally got to talk to an actual person they informed me that there was nothing in New Yorks system under my name OR the Vin # for the vehicle I purchased. And that I needed to contact the dealership. I called and spoke to Adrian, explained the whole situation to him. He was actually very decent. He stated this was the first he had heard of it. (which considering I had been calling for 5 days is crazy). He overnighted me a new 20 tag, and emailed me a tracking number. Today is April 25th, and I just received a call that my permanent plates are in. They now inform me that I have to be available to sign for these when they are delivered. Ok...not a huge deal when I work various hours and have 2 babies, but it would be nice to know ahead of time about all the details. NOT ONCE did I receive a call or a "promised" call back from them, other than this call.

I love the customer service that the staff there provides. Personally, Dave Mazurek helped me the most, he is truly knowledgeable and understanding of any question I asked him. He went above and beyond for me and this was the only place the manager (Adrian) also took the time to out to also help.

Everything went smoothly as far as purchasing the 04 Subaru Forester XS. The car did not have Owner's manual(nice to have proper documents for the car eventhough it was used), only one key fob(2 would have been better), it was missing rear passenger head rest on the day to pick up the car but Mr. Dave Mazurek solved the problem very nicely. It would have been an awesome buying experience if those problems did not occur. I hope to keep the car for as long as I need to. Good experience overall.

I looked up different car dealers and saw what seemed like a thousand cars for two weeks. The day that I decided to go and buy a car, I looked online one more time for additional dealers and found DCH Academy Honda. DCH Academy Honda was actually fourth on my list, but decided to make them my second stop due to proximity. I walked in with my set limit for a used car and was greeted by sales consultant Vipin. Vipin and the used car Manger Adrian worked with my set limit and three test drives later I found my new used car. I not only got a new used car but got a great car for a good price from good people. I would recommend this dealership to anyone

I purchased a Certified used 2009 Accord EX-L. My salesman was Gerry. We got along very well. The entire experience was pleasant, professional, relaxed (even despite all the paperwork involved in a car purchase with trade-in and financing). If I purchase another used vehicle in the future, Gerry is my goto guy. Terry finished the transaction. Same experience. There were two small issues with the keys and the radio code. I came back the next morning and the manager took care of these issues right away to my complete satisfaction, with no problems whatsoever. Great experience! Rick in the service department is also outstanding. He and I go "way back" to my older Civic. He's my goto guy in service. All these DCH Academy guys are outstanding. I give them my hearty endorsement.

I was an Internet customer, and after visiting the dealership, I found my sales rep and the team to be very courteous, professional, and fair.My price quote was for a 2012 CR-V. Since they did not have the color (urban titanium/beige interior) which I wanted in stock, I asked if the incentive offer would be good for the vehicle for which they did not have in stock. It turned out, they were willing to offer me the same deal, and, they will 'swap' models in order for me to obtain my color and trim level. Since this would take about 2 days, I asked about the one with a white diamond pearl/beige interior, and they were more than willing to take it outside of the warehouse for me for a test drive. After more contemplation, I decided to stick with my original desired color. The salesman drove about 100 miles to swap the two cars. Through all this, the sales staff was very kind and professional, and even included an add-on at no extra charge. Even the finance manager was very courteous, and we reached a great deal at a fraction of the time and energy I would spend negotiating at other dealerships in the area.Although I had 100 more miles on my odometer to get the car I wanted, the service was exceptional and I highly recommend anyone to visit here first.

I wanted to write to let everyone know what a positive experience I had at DCH Honda in Old Bridge thanks to Joe Lisciandri in the used car department. I was having issues with the gas mileage on my newly purchased SUV and I went into DCH Honda hoping that there was a way to get out of my current loan and into a better car for me and my family. Joe was patient and understanding. He listened to me, understood my situation, and helped work out a deal that got me into the perfect, little, fuel-efficient car for me. Thank you Joe Liscandri for all your help. Thank you for your honesty, your straight-forwardness, and how easy you made the car-buying process...oh...and of course the 4 new tires and new brakes. Joe Lisciandri is the best. I'd give him 10 stars if I could!

If you are ever trying to trade in your old car with new honda car/ certified then i would recommend to first visit DCH academy Honda and see for yourself the deal you receive. I can guarantee, you will get the best deal compared to other dealers. Recommend to speak with the sales person Mr Harshad Panchal. Your transactions will run smooth and fair, no catch.

My wife & I expected to experience the usual Car Dealership drama when shopping for a new Pilot. In the dealership for 5 minutes, Marcia Dietrick approached warm and friendly inquiring how she could help us. With 10 minutes we were test driving a vehicle. Upon our return Marcia walked us through the paperwork and Lily Li was extremely helpful with the financing. It was an effortless, enjoyable car buying experience due to their attention to customer service. You would be a fool to purchase a Honda anywhere else.

Dealership provided an excellent deal and I definitely plan to lease/purchase more cars with this dealership in the near future.

Excellent dealership to work with. Enough selection on the lot to choose from, prices are fair, and paperwork quick and easy. Michael S. has been our salesman for many years and many Honda leases and we always recommend him. We've checked out other dealerships and for the most part they play games and are not always truthful. Thanks for making getting a car a pleasant experience.

I gave this rating because both Sam and Hussain were very patient and even after they knew they had the sale they still took time to make sure I knew how to work the settings on the car. They took time to work with my budget too! Best car sales experience I have ever had and I would recommend them to a friend/family member.

Thanks to Joe L for all the help he provided getting us our next car. We live in South Bend, IN and searched all over for the right car to no avail. While searching Cars.com we came across the perfect car so I called DCH and was greeted by Joe. We talked for a few minutes and decided it was the right car for us. We drove to Chicago, flew to Detroit, then flew to Newark Airport where Joe had our dream car pick us up at the airport. We drove back to DCH Academy Honda where he had our paperwork ready to go. A few signatures later we were headed home on a 750 mile road trip. A big thanks to Joe L and Freddy for getting us in and out in a hurry!

Every associate from the receptionist at the front desk to sales personnel, and even cashiers asked if I was being helped. Our sales consultant, Ryan Hoey, was friendly and up front with all aspects associated with purchasing the new vehicle. Moreover, even the service personnel were very personable. An individual named Randy Foster was more then happy to explain how the first service appointment will go. Our finance individual, Hussain Nawaz, was quick and friendly. I would definitely return to this dealership for service and the purchase of future cars.

I just purchased a car from DCH Honda. They gave me a best deal in a town. Harshad Panchal was my sales person who helped me choosing the right car and gave me a good deal. He is very nice and fun loving person, he is also known as HP at DCH academy honda. I went to couple other dealers near by me but he beat all the deals and get me the best price. If you are looking to buy a new honda car, I highly recommend DCH and HP.

After the sale, he even took the time to help me set up the bluetooth for my phone! The service department has been efficient and fairly expedient considering the volume.

Joe Guzzo is one of the nicest, most honest salesmen I've ever worked with. He even remembered my family from a previous visit, and kept one of my sons toy cars that he'd left there by accident to give back to him.Great service, very competitive pricing, and an all around great experience with Joe and DCH Academy Honda. My highest recommendations.

I recently purchased a vehicle from DCH Academy Honda and was assisted by Joe Lisciandri. From the second I walked in I was greeted and quickly taken care of. I was afraid at first to go there by myself because it was my first time thinking about financing a vehicle and I had no idea what I was getting myself into. Joe made me feel comfortable, he wasn't pressuring me to buy the vehicle, he was patient and informative, had no problem answering all my questions and before I can sign any document he explained what was on it. I really appreciate that he was honest about what he can do for me. He didn't sell me a dream just to make a sale and that means a lot to me. I hear many stories of people going else where and having to deal with sales men that are like sharks, but I was lucky not to experience that at DCH Academy Honda. Freddy from their Finance Department, was very kind and professional as well. He made sure to get me the best deal he can and within my budget. I had another appointment to visit another dealership but after visiting DCH Academy Honda, I didn't feel the need to go elsewhere. I am very happy with my purchase and I will go back to them in the future.

Fairly seamless experience for purchase of Accord. Price was competitive and sales experience was not a pressure cooker operation like other high volume Honda dealers in the neighborhood. Finance person tried to put some pressure on buying extras like the extended warranty but she was only doing her job.Overall a good experience.

The staff at DCH Old Bridge, NJ was friendly, knowledgeable but most importantly attentive to my needs. Khalil and Mark worked through the process and ensured that all my needs were met. Noticeably missing was the common back and forth haggling typical at most dealers. Again, I really appreciate the attention given to my requirements. This may be the reason I have purchased at least 6 Honda's in the last 5 years!

I needed a new car and had been to many dealers looking at all different cars. I wanted a car along the lines of a Hyndai Elantra or a Honda Civic. Hyndai was not a good experience. They still continue calling me to this day even though I have told them I am not interested. I had gone shopping in October but had decided to wait until now to purchase a new car. In that time Marcia was the only dealer who did not badger me. She would occasionally send me emails to touch base but was not overbearing. I knew before I went to look and test drive that I was going to buy a Honda and that it would be with Marcia. She has exceptional knowledge and did not force anything on me that I did not want. She worked with me to get a deal together that worked for everybody and made my first car purchase on my own a pleasurable one. I would definitly reccomend this dealer to anyone who does not want the run around.

After 4 years of driving a Honda Civic,I decided to get an SUV,so I came across DCH ACADEMY Honda on-line and saw Good reviews and I was even skeptical about it,so I gave it a try,I applied for pre-approval on-line and asked for a quote for a Honda CRV-EX 2012.Mark Kamatoy gave me a good quote below MSRP and arranged a visit to see the car and do the paperwork.Went to the dealership and met SAm,the New Car Sales Manager,who was very helpful,professional to work with and helped me out the entire process,THEN Hussein,the Finance guy got a good APR rate from AHFC and I was very thankful for that thinking I don't really have that polished credit,it was beyond my expectation.Then I met Joe the General Manager who made me feel I am not just a customer but as a family as well.just after 2 hours I was driving home my CRV 2012!I highly recommend them if you are looking for a good car buying experience!!

We dreaded going to a car dealership, because of the stereotypes you hear about car sales reps and car dealerships in general and their questionable reputation. BUT all my worries went away- going to DCH ACADEMY Honda of Old Bridge, NJ was actually a PLEASANT & a FUN experience!!! We selected to go to DCH Academy because of a high recommendation from my brother who recently bought a Honda Pilot here as well and also recieved a great deal and experience here! The staff there were very PROFESSIONAL & COURTEOUS. We were very FORTUNATE TO GET Mr. PAUL PAPIS as our sales representative. We also had the pleasure to work with Mr. Tian & Mr. Mark Kamatoy as our internet sales rep., whom were all also very courteous and professional. Mr. Papis was very considerate of our needs and we instantly felt that he was genuine - meaning that he was very upfront and honest with all his answers that he gave us when we had any questions. He was COMMITTED and readily available in helping us get the best affordable car that fits or needs. He went above and beyond in making us feel comfortable in our car buying experience. We were never pressured into making any decisions on the spot. We confess, we did go to other dealerships to scout for the best deal for our Honda CRV EX purchase. We recieved other great offers from other dealerships, but Mr. Papas worked with us and he was able to get us a comparable/best price, which we were VERY pleased. We actually knew we wanted to make the sale with Mr. Papas regardless, because of our initial contact with him...he was simply trustworthy! We certainly will return to DCH Academy to make our next Honda purchase and will highly recommend it to our family and friends who in the future plan to purchase a car. We enjoyed our search for our new car...and you will too - if you step into DCH Academy Honda of Old Bridge!!! :) (Be certain to get Mr. Paul Papis, Mr. Mark -internet sale rep Kamatoy &/or Mr. Tian (manager) - you will NOT be dissappointed.)

Sam first worked with my father and sold him a car about a year ago. My father had such a great experience that he told me to go see Sam. I had very specific expectations about what I was looking for. Although the car I wanted was not at the dealership, Sam took his time to locate the exact car I wanted in a short amount of time. He did not pressure me into another style or color. He was patient and worked with me without being pushy.

You cannot ask for better, and I would give him the very highest recommendation. He is friendly, honest, and a pleasure to deal with.

I have been buying cars for more than 30 years and this was the best experience I have ever had. Essam Beshay was friendly, knowlegeable about the vehicle and did not play the games with the customer that every other car salesperson I have ever dealt with has played. I actually enjoyed the experience of leasing my new Pilot from Academy Honda. It was worth driving over from Staten Island. As Ahh-nold used to say in The Terminator movies, I'll be back.

Everyone at DCH Academy Honda treats you with friendliness and respect. This is the 2nd CRV we have leased through them and once again they have outperformed my expectations! Our salesman, Nitin Bassi is a gentleman and is a pleasure to work with. He is confident and listens to your concerns. He knows the products he sells and works diligently to negotiate a fair price.Dimitri, the finance manager treated us with kindness and generosity, he included two valuable services at no extra cost to me.Joe, the sales manager did not let us leave without meeting us with a smile and friendly "hello". This type of customer service means a lot to my wife and I and we will be back again for our next Honda. We hope to see these people again!Oh, I couldn't forget Akia Velez, who is basically responsible for contacting us and informing us that our lease was maturing and that the DCH team would do their best to keep our relationship going strong. And they did!By the way my wife loves the 2012 CRV!! Kudos to the DCH Academy Honda Team for the continued great treatment and to Honda on the improved CRV!-Anthony,Matawan, NJ

At DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge, NJ, you will find Robert Levine,the best car salesman on this planet. He is very professional, very knowledgeable and very personable. I was his customer in 2003 and came back last week to get a new car at this dealership and specifically with Mr. Levine's assistance. At this dealership, the entire process of obtaining a new car was pleasant, comfortable and consumed less time than I anticipated.

My family has been dealing with DCH Academy Honda for 10 + years and the minute I walked into the dealer I was greeted by the nicest and friendliest staff I ever met. Salesmen Khalil Quraishi went above and beyond to make sure I was able to get into a new 2012 Accord. The cost of the new car was very reasonable for it being brand new .During the time I was there Khalil Quraishi made sure that if I had any questions or concerns that they were handled and taken care of. Khalil Quraishi and the staff at DCH Academy Honda made sure that while I was waiting for the car that I was comfortable and taken care of. having a salesmen like Khalil Quraishir who puts clients first and because of that I will never shop anywhere else.I plan on telling my family and friends of Khalil Quraishi And the outstanding Staff at DCH Academy Honda. I want to thank DCH Academy Honda and Khalil Quraishi for and outstanding job in helping me with my purchase.

We just purchased our first Honda from Ryan Hoey. We were all set to buy a Nissan but decided to check out the Honda Accord before making our final decision. We were so impressed with the attention that Ryan gave us. He listened to what I wanted in a car and had one waiting for me to test drive and answered all the questions that my husband and I asked. If he wasn't sure about an answer he checked to make sure that he gave as an accurate answer. We didn't feel rushed or pressured to make a decision. Ryan was aware that we had looked at a Nissan before coming to Academy Honda but he never said anything bad about a Nissan, which made a very good impression on me. It's refreshing to see a young man with such professionalism. I am very happy with my decision to buy my first Honda from Ryan Hoey and Academy Honda and would definitly recommend Ryan and Academy. Thank you,Susan B

Nittin Bassi went above and beyond the call of duty to get me in the car i wanted for the price i could afford. He was extremely personable and didn't leave a single question un-answered. Nittin made buying a car an enjoyable experience. He wasn't just another dealer trying to make a sale, from the first minuet dealing with him he had a genuine understanding as well as outlook on my situation and did whatever he could to put me in the car i wanted. due to time i left the dealership the first day. Shortly after arriving home, i received a phone call from nittin telling me that he had found a way to get me into the car i wanted. I was offered two vehicles, but only one was in stock. before we decided my fiance wanted to test drive both models, unfortunately only one of the two were in stock. nittin then offered to let us drive his PERSONAL vehicle complete with car-seat which was the same model to let us get a feel for it. Im sure any other dealer would have pushed us into a car we didn't want to make a sale but as i said he did everything and anything he could to get me into the car i wanted...and he did. Amazing experince and i would recomend DCH Academy Honda any day of the week. The entire staff was incredible including Demitrey who explained every aspect of the purchase to me. All together it was a great experience Thanks especially to Nittin Bassi!

It was a pleasure dealing with Sam. He was very helpful, friendly, and kind. He tried his very best to address all questions and best of all he was patient. Most salesmen are very arrogant and condescending, Beshoy was NEITHER. His patience and kindness make him a charm. My family and I would highly recommend Sam.

This is my 6th Honda and I believe my 14th car. The purchase of this Civic coupe was by far the most straightforward and enjoyable car purchase experience I have ever had, and this one was a used car! I liked Mr. Crowley's honesty and reliability. He answered our questions factually and openly and treated my daughter with kindness and respect. He taught me a few things I didn't know, despite all my experience with Hondas. I have already told several people about the excellent experience I had at DCH Academy Honda and I will certaily recommend Mr. Crowley. And we love the car! Best regards,Hugh Riley

PLEASE STAY AWAY FROM DCH and DEALER-RATER - this is probably DCH owned and advertised website. NO wonder they have 4.9/5 rating and every other dealer has 2.3! No other dealer advertises DealerRater in their emails. I was looking to lease a 2012 Honda Odyssey and had the worst buying experience here. I purchased my 1st car here and have been going there for car servicing and experience had always been good So I went back for leasing my next car and was shocked at the treatment given. They glorify themselves saying you would have a seamless experience and tell how bad other dealerships are, how other dealerships charge more for various other things like documentation fee, car detailing fee - in fact they charge more than others in a different way.I went to DCH with a quote from a local NJ dealer and they would not match it and I had to walk out. They kept following up to find out if I had made the purchase and I declined several times to go there unless they matched the price. Then I sent them a pricing from out of state dealer which was lower than the local NJ dealer- this time they called me saying they are matching it saying its month end and would like to make the sale only difference in the matching being the state tax. It was the day of unusual October snow in NJ and I went there only because they called me and had agreed to match the price. When I reached there, they went back to their original high quote and said NO dealer in NJ can give this price the one that out of state dealer quoted. The most ridiculous statement was Honda leasing Program differs by each state. I wanted to lease only for 2 years - the salesman said I have to pay a minimum 3 year NJ DMV charges he was easily trying to pocket 1 year of registration fee I checked with DMV and there is no such minimum registration period. Seeing me upset and raising my voice for getting me to the dealership on a bad weather day in the pretext of matching the price and moreover cheating me, they played with numbers by asking me to pay few thousand dollars down upfront- when I was getting the same payment with NO money down. The manager Sunil Fernandez who intervened was the most arrogant person I have spoken to at DCH. When I asked him how he arrived at the leasing numbers, he said in the last 18 years he has not understood how that number is calculated!! Honda Management please teach him some leasing calculations it is also available on the internet! I finally leased my 2012 Honda Odyssey from an NJ dealer who matched my out-of-state quote.Please stay away from DCH. For those who go here, I request customers to do their homework before they go.

What a great experience in buying our new 2012 Accord. Our Salesperson, Paul Papis, was wonderful. He took the time to understand our objective and helped us work out a great deal. We are so satisfied with our new car. Paul never made us feel pressured, was considerate of our time and made the paperwork painless. We have several cars in our family. When it comes time to buy our next car, we will go to Academy Honda and ask for Paul.

Michael Serra was the key individual that we worked with at DCH Academy Honda. It was always a pleasure working with him. That being said, all the staff we encountered at DCH Academy Honda were very courteous and helpful. Leading up to the purchase of a 2012 Civic LX by my daughter, Michael was very accessible and answered all my questions in a timely and friendly manner. Michael was never pushy in trying to close the deal. The price of the Civic was the best of 3 other dealers we received quotes from. My daughter drove away in a Black Civic that was very clean and shiny, indicating great care in preparation for the customer. My daughter is very happy with the purchase but asked me to respond to the Survey since I did the ground work leading up to the purchase. I purchased a 2009 Honda Accord LX-P in January 2009 at DCH and had a similar pleasant and cost effective experience.

I wanted a 2011 Honda CRV EX-L and had to trade in my old Nissan Altima. This is our second vehicle purchase from this dealership and overall we are very happy with both experiences. Both times our sales person was Khalil Qureshi; he is fantastic, honest, friendly, experienced and knows what he is talking about.This time I didn't waste any time by going to any other dealership as I knew he will give me the best deal possible and he did it again. Khalil was able to make our car buying experience painless and we were made to feel right at home. Lady in the finance department was also very easy to work with and helped make things get done quicker.We would highly recommend both Khalil and the dealership to friends and family.

I purchased a 2012 Honda Pilot EX-L on November 2, 2011 from DCH Academy Honda on Route 9 in Old Bridge, NJ. I had initially visited the dealership on Saturday, October 22, 2011. Upon arriving on the 22nd, I was immediately approached by Marcia Dietrick to see if she could help. After explaining to her my situation (I was purchasing a company car), she described to me the different level of Pilots available and what she thought would fit comfortably into my allowance. I never felt any pressure and Marcia was extremely understanding when I told her that I needed to discuss the purchase with my wife and employer.I returned to DCH on Tuesday, October 25, 2011 with my 4 year old daughter to test drive the Pilot. My daughter is not shy and began peppering Marcia with questions during our test drive. Marcia answered every one of my daughter's questions (particularly regarding the DVD player which I ended up not getting) and treated her as if she was part of the purchase decision.I could not be happier with my decision to purchase the Pilot from Marcia and DCH Academy Honda. I have been back to the dealership several times to pick up some accessories and my motor vehicle documents and each time was greeted warmly by everyone I spoke to. Marcia has also made time for me on each visit to insure that I was happy with the car.

ANOTHER HAPPY CUSTOMER ! I just bought my 3rd car in 16 months from this dealer. As long as I want a Honda, I can't imagine going anywhere else. In fact, even when I considered other car makes, I came back to Honda because of the ease, convenience, reliability, and trustworthiness of the staff..... and of course I liked the product. This dealership is not the typical car dealer. They are so upfront about everything, it's hard to believe. They don't stoop to other dealer tricks and ask those annoying stupid questions you associate with car dealers. My preferred way of purchasing a car is thru the internet unit at DCH Honda. You can price any car and options you want. They will email you their no haggle, no hassle price. Trust me it will be lower than you imagined. Take your test drive before you do this or after. You get your price, they make it a point to make the internet price as low as you could get as if you came and and negotiated your very best price for it. If you want the car..... you simply go in and buy it. No hassles, no hidden cost, no problems. They ask you if you want etching. If you say no, they say fine. They ask if you want added protection, if you say no, they say fine. You pay.... You leave with your car. No hidden fees, nothing secretly added into your agreement. It is such a pleasure dealing with this dealership. So, reputable you'll forget its a car dealer. So, if you want a great price email them for a quote. You can do that right on the Honda.com web site. You want a NO HASSLE, NO HAGGLE experience. Look no further. This is the place. Finally, Robert Levine is a great sales guy to have. No pressure, no bull. I went to Robert for each sale. He is friendly and personable. Mark Kamatoy is the internet guy..... very accommodating. Hussain Nawaz in finance was very friendly and easy to deal with. Dmitry Rabakov in finance was also smooth sailing. All in all, the DCH staff is very accommodating. Go for it. You won't be sorry. Don't forget to ask Robert about the good seafood restaurants in the area. LOLMike

This was our second vehicle purchase from this dealership and overall we are very happy with all aspects of the experience. Our sales person, Sam Beshay, was truly a pleasure to work with. Although we happened to get with Sam by chance as this was originally an Internet transaction, we are very happy we met him and would recommend both Sam and the dealership highly. Their pricing can't be beat and the overall customer service was a pleasure. From the time we drove up with our trade in vehicle to the time we drove home in our new car was about 2 hours. Sam was able to make the experience painless and the other sales personnel around the dealership were also very friendly, we were made to feel right at home. Special thanks to Stephanie Louie and Hussain for making the process a pleasure, they were both very helpful and accomodating. We can't say enough good things. Go see Sam the Man and the rest of the DCH crew for a great deal and a great buying experience.

I needed to find a reliable car in 2 days for my son, who was coming home from Ohio. Joe L. got back to me within 30 minutes, and found me a used Honda Accord in great condition at a price I could afford. I picked up the car the next day, just before my son arrived; he left the next day for Ohio very happy.

I have been shopping for a new CRV since March, 2011. Iniatially I contacted Academy Honda online, visited other dealerships and test drove the vehicle at another location. My daughter and I thought we would give Honda one more look. Our online inquiry showed tht Academy had a better vehicle inventory than the other area dealerships. Mr. Tam's courtesy, knowledge about the vehicle and sincere conviction about the quality of the Honda product literally "sold" the deal. Mr. Tam was able to answer every question and offered information that was never presented in all the months I had been investigating Honda. His personal attention to my concerns and pleasant attitude made this the very best car purchasing experience. My family has purchased quite a number of autos over the years and I can honestly say I left Adademy Honda on Monday October 31, 2011 feeling very confident I had made the right decision. I am happy with my Black CRV and satisfied the price was fair and just. I look forward to having my CRV serviced at Academy and hope to always be able to stop in and visit Mr. Tam just to say Thank You.

I HAVE PURCHASED 6 CARS PRIOR TO PURCHASING FROM DCH ACADEMY HONDA, AND BUY FAR THIS WAS THE MOST PLEASANT EXPERIENCE. THERE IS NO DOUBT IN MY MIND THE BEST PLACE TO PURCHASE A CAR IS AT DCH ACADEMY HONDA. I AM THANKFUL TO HAVE DONE BUSINESS WITH SALES MANAGER REUBIN AURILLIA AND PAUL PAPIS. THANKS AGAIN!

My husband and I never purchased a Honda vehicle in the past. Our experience at DCH Academy Honda was very totally hassle-free. The General manager,John, was polite and very helpful. Our salesman,Sam,was very knowledgable about the cars and explained the purpose of all the forms that we had to sign. Except for parting with the down payment,the entire experience was very pleasant and only took a couple of hours. We were totally satisfied with the experience

The sales associate (Sam) was very knowledgeable about every feature of the vehicle. He did not push us to make the purchase at any time. In fact he was totally honest at the time of negotiating the price and benefits. We spent extra office hours sealing the deal and employees were always willing to clarify any detail. We received follow up calls the day after and we feel extremelly happy with our Pilot. Great customer service.

I have a long-term relationship with another Honda dealer in the DCH group so I was not sure how this experience would go. The car was priced fairly, we negotiated my trade fairly and they freely offered the Honda specials on financing. My experience was good and the entire process from first seeing the car to driving it home took less than 3 hours which is excellent. They owed me a few minor things - but important to me - they remembered and honored it and I was out the door in minutes. Overall a great and friendly experience. My salesman David Mazurek was very good and the dealership worked with me to make it a pleasant buying experience. Anyone shopping for a car at any dealer should always do their own research so they know when the deal is right. I would highly recommend DCH Academy Honda based on my personal experience. David is an awesome salesman and made it happen for me - Thanks again - I love the car!!!

When you buy a car the process is usually painfull, at DCH Academy Honda of Old Bridge the sales representative Paul Rittberg made it a very positive experience. From the first time that I went into the dealership and gave him my infomation he had excellent follow up. When I came in to pick up the car he said it would be approximately 2 hours to go over the car and the paperwork, which I thought that he was kidding. It took awhile to go over everthing but I was glad that he did because even tough I already had owned a 2009 Honda Accord the features on the 2012 Accord had changed. He was extremely knowledgable on all of the features and explained them in great detail. It was nice to see that someone took pride in what he was doing and wanted to make sure his customer was completely informed and satisfied before they left with there new car. I would highly recommend Paul and DCH Academy Honda to anyone that I know is looking for a new car.

I have dealt with different Honda dealerships over the years. DCH Academy Honda is by far the best Honda dealership that I have purchased from. A little over a year and a half ago I worked out a deal with Nitin Bassi for a CR-V. The transaction went very smoothly and the process was not "high" pressure. Just recently it was time for 2 new Honda vehicles. I did not hesitate to go back to DCH Academy Honda and work with Nitin Bassi again. This time I was interested in a Honda Pilot and Accord to replace my CR-V and an older Accord. Nitin was very accommodating, polite, not "in your face". He gave me all of his attention and was very knowledgeable. When it came time to numbers, there weren't any games being played. Once I finished up the paperwork with Nitin it was on to Hussain Nawaz the Finance Manager. Hussain too was polite and gave me plenty of time to review all the paperwork before signing. Even when it came time to go over the optional dealer items, I had no pressure to opt-in for them. In a matter of hours, I was in 2 new vehicles. I highly recommend Nitin, Hussain and the DCH Academy Honda dealership.

Glad I stopped by DCH - initially was looking for a 2012 Civic Si sedan with nav. Spoke to Erich who took my information down and the colors I wanted, he did not think they would have any in soon that wasn't already accounted for (people who had deposits placed early), but would let me know if one became available. A week later, an Si sedan in the right color was available, Erich gave me a call, went over, got a very reasonable trade-in on my 2009 Honda Fit, and drove away with the Si the same evening!Soon after, I started looking for a winter vehicle, was considering a used Honda Element or CR-V. Erich found me a CPO CR-V at a price I wanted, but convinced me it would be better to look at the new CR-V which he felt is a better value. Took me on a good test drive Saturday so I had a good feel, and told me to think it over the weekend. Went back Monday, and picked up a brand new 2011 CR-V SE at a great lease price.Lily took care of my financing for the Si (great Honda rates, wasn't worthwhile to pay it outright), and Dmitry took care of the lease for the CR-V. They do have to sell/introduce you to the extra offerings like extended warranties, tire protection, and service plans the dealership offers, but you can decline those if you aren't interested in them.Erich does know his cars better than the average salesperson I've met, and takes care of his customers well. Talk to him and visit DCH Academy if you're looking for a new Honda, its worth the trip over.

Been to many dealerships and this was by far the best experience. Not pushy. Very informative. They took time to take care of all my questions and concerns without rushing me. Awesome customer service all around. Will definitely recommend this dealership and the salesman that helped me, Michael Serra and his manager Hussain. Was surprised when he followed up with me days after I received the new vehicle to make sure all was ok and if I had any additional questions which I did and he was able to answer. Knowledgable of all vehicles and definitely number one in customer service all around.

I have been visiting to lot of dealers in and around new york and jersey city. I can guarantee that DCH is best. Everyone who looks for a car is not a genius on the car search. Its the dealer who gonna help you to find the right car and providing the right details. Most of the car dealers just give you the price of the car and just push you hard to take it. DCH is not such a place. They are friendly and co operative. On my experience I was in a confusion of Accord or Honda. They helped me to compare and contrast. Definitely you can compare in lot of online websites, Still i like to compare them on vision. They pulled over a Accord and a CRV and parked them next to each other. This really helped me to make a quick decision. I can guarantee that no new york city dealer will do this. They are open to price negotiation(Its really tough with new york city dealers). And they work really fast. I was facing some delays on the loan with my credit union, DCH jumped in and helped me to find another loan with same rate. They got my Loan approved around 11:00AM and i got the car the same day 9:00PM. So fast. Over All my experience with DCH is really really good. I will definitely recommend them to my friends.

He broke everything down right away, no playing games going back and fourth like I have experienced in the past working with other dealerships. My experience was GREAT,I got more then expected, It was a good feeling I was treated like a friend more than a customer!!! And I did make purchase and it was a great deal, Me and my family are very happy. WE WILL DEFINITLY BE SHOPPING AT DCH ACADEMY HONDA AGAIN, THANKS NITIN BASSI FOR THE GREAT SERVICE!!!

Stephen Leung is a great salesperson. He provided my family and me exceptional, quality service. Not only was he attentive to our needs, he was very professional, personable and explained all details thoroughly. Because of him, the car buying experience was effortless. There should be more Stephen Leungs in the car sales industry, and he should definitely be a model and example for others to follow. At the end of the day, we are happy, satisfied customers - because that was his goal. We were lucky to have dealt with him. Thank you, STEPHEN!

Bought a Certified Pre-Owned Honda Civic from DCH Academy Honda over the weekend and had an awesome customer experience. The whole team spent time with me finding the best car for my needs at the best price. I never once felt like I was being "sold" this was a very professional and customer service driven process. I wound up driving away that day with the exact car I wanted at a very reasonable and fair price. I've always been a "Honda Guy" now I will always be a DCH Academy Honda guy. I look forward to doing business with the team at DCH for many years to come.

When i woke up this morning, I had EVERY intention of visiting another dealership in New Jersey. I had another vehicle already picked out. Just by chance I went on to search for a different make and model. Let me tell you, it was the BEST decision I have ever made. Tim made the purchase of my vehicle, from calling to see if it was available to actually accepting delivery. INCREDIBLE!!! He was VERY knowledgeable, VERY personable. The ONLY thing that is preventing me from giving him a 10 on this survey, is it's not an option. I guess N/A would apply. I literally have already spoken to my family and told them about my experience with TIM at DCH. They can expect a bunch more business when the time comes.ONLY if Tim is still there LOL. He has a lifetime customer in me. Sincerely,Carlo Ligammari

Nitin and Mark were great! I first found the 2011 CR-V Honda online at vehix.com i immediately was contacted by Mark Kamatoy he was friendly and made me feel like i was getting a great deal and he could help me out. I then took a hour and a half drive down with my daughter to trade in my 2001 Nissan and 2006 Volvo. This is where i met Nitin. Nitin was very friendly, flexible, and really got us a great deal on the car and our trade ins. He was extremely patient and stayed and talked with us long after the dealership closed. He even printed us out directions how to get home faster. A great guy! It was worth the drive! I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who can't afford a lot but looking for a quality car.

Right from the beginning I felt comfortable. They worked really hard with my financial status to get me a payment I could work with. They gave their time and dedication to me, the customer. I've been to other dealers that were pushy or frustrated when it came to what I could afford. These guys never did that. They made me feel like what I want is what I get. And that's exactly what happened. I got a brand new car that won't break the bank. Plus Paul kept me calm when I felt anxious and nervous that I woulnt get to go home in something new. I would have hugged him if it was appropriate! Thank you all so much for your help, friendliness , and dedication to customer service.

MY HUSBAND AND I WERE REFERED TO SAM BESHAY BY OUR SON WHO HAD JUST LEASED A PILOT AND WAS VERY PLEASED WITH THE ENTIRE PROCESS. WE CERTAINLY WERE NOT DISAPPOINTED. MR. BESHAY PROVIDED US WITH THE CRV THAT WE WANTED AND THE TERMS WE WERE LOOKING TO OBTAIN. AFTER HAVING NEGOTIATED MANY LEASING CONTRACTS OVER THE YEARS WE CAN TRULY SAY THIS A VERY SATISFYING EXPERIENCE. HE WAS ALWAYS POLITE,OFFERING SERVICE AND HIS EXPERTISE. I HAVE SINCE REFERRED A FRIEND TO DCH ACADEMY HONDA. I LOOK FORWARD TO DEALING WITH SAM AGAIN AT LEASE END. DCH ACADEMY HONDA IS A DEALER THAT STAND BEHIND ITS WORD.

I went to Honda because I was interested in a minivan for my family. I met Marcia she was great,very patient,knowledgable and helpful. I'm so glad I met her because I was 100% sure of what I wanted after talking to her. I highly recommend her to anyone who is interested in dealing with a great sales person.

We have dealt with this dealership since 1985 and keep coming back.This time we went home with our new CRV thanks to Marcia Dietrich.She was very professional, friendly and not aggressive at all. she was able toaddress and meet all our needs. hard to believe we stopped by to just shop around and acouple hrs later drove off in a new car. it was completely stress free and a pleasurebuying a new car.it's the way car shopping should be. after we completed the purchase we had the pleasure of closing the deal with Dmitry who explained all options on warranty options and left that decision completely up to us. we will not hesitate to go back to this dealership the next time we need another new car. thanks again to all.

Yes.I would highly recommend this dealership.I bought it from D C H honda oldbridgebecause I was very satisified with Sam Beshay.He listened to my needs and wants and accomadated them all.He was not pushy. He was extremely polite with a great attitude.I would definately recomend this dealer to friends and family.But most of all what made the sale of my car was dealing with Sam Beshay. Also at the purchase of my odyessy there were no hidden fees. The deal we spoke about was the true deal at purchase.Yes deserves an award in excellence. I also need to commend the manager Hussein as well. Hussein was very pleasurable to work with. He is also an asset to the dealship.I hope they continue providing an exceptional experience in the future. Thank You, Johanna Grillo

The entire experience was smooth and stress free. Our first contact was on the phone with Mark. He was professional, pleasant and straight forward. He answered all our questions and followed up promptly. At the showroom, Sam took us out for a test ride and explained all the features of the car. He was knowledgeable and friendly. We were offered refreshments and felt very comfortable. Last, but not least, we shopped around and DCH Academy Honda had the best price for the car we purchased. If you're looking for a Honda, definitely give them a call!

Ed Moy spent 2.5 hours showing us the inventory we were interested in. He listened to what we wanted and steered us to the perfect car for US to buy instead of the perfect car for HIM to sell.No pressure,friendly people.I'd reccomend DCH Academy Honda to anyone looking for a new or used car. And ask for Eddie Moy.

My husband and I went into DCH Academy Honda, and met with Maria Dietrick. We both found Marcia to be an excellent Sales Rep. She was very polite, kind, and friendly. She worked with us, and gave us an excellent deal on our newly leased CRV Honda. I would HIGHLY recommend her to my family, and friends.

My dealer, Michael Serra, was quite genuine and truly tried his best with getting me a great deal - which in fact, he did. His manager, who also discussed sales with me was also genuine in character and gave me honest facts. I got a deal I was very happy with, and one that will certainly bring me back after my lease is over!

I was shopping for a car with a good deal having in mind the car model and the price in advance. Sam professionally represented a deal that I accepted it without even negotiate it. I felt the sincerity, and the honesty throughout the deal. It was a wonderful buying a car experience.

My father's 2007 Honda Accord was totalled in a car accident and therefore he needed to find a comparable replacement car. He also needed to stay within a budget since he is a senior citizen with a fixed income.From the moment I spoke to Tim Crowley you could tell that he understood our situation and would do anything he could to help us. Tim found us a 2008 Accord with similar mileage as the 2007 vehicle at a price my father could afford. We picked up the car today and I have to say that it was a wonderful car buying experience.I would definitely recommend this dealership to friends and family. Tim truly cared about my father's situation and wanted to help, which is not something you experience these days. We sincerely appreciate the kindness we experienced at this dealership.

Sam and all members of his team (Mark from online sales) were an absolute pleasure. Professional, no nonsense, and the best price in all of NJ- and believe me, I priced tons of dealers. I typically find car shopping painful, but dch old bridge was awesome.

For the second time in four months, I had the same excellent experience with this dealer. I bought an Accord from this dealer in April and I had a wonderful experience so I returned when I decided to buy another vehicle. I went to the same dealer and dealt with the same employee, Sam Beshay, to buy a CRV. He searched for my favorite color and he showed me everything he had in stock. I chose the car I wanted and he walked me through every feature of the car inside and out. I chose my favorite grey color with a nice black interior. He was extremely professional and was able to explain all the new technology in the car that I was unfamiliar with. I really enjoyed buying from him and the rest of the crew was great as well. I feel so happy dealing with this dealership and I always leave confident that I got a fantastic car at an excellent price.

My husband and I had been planning to buy a Honda Pilot for weeks. We were going to go out looking as soon as we received our financing pre approval check in the mail. We researched many dealerships and their models. DCH Academy Honda had the models/mileage/pricing that we were looking for. Well the same day that the check came, our beloved maltese passed away quite unexpectedly from a sudden illness. We had the devastating task of having to buy a car the same day we lost her (we both were on vacation and had to buy a car asap for me to maintain my employment). When my husband and I showed up at DCH, Sammy Lucas greeted us warmly. After completing some initial information, Sammy showed us the cars we were interested in. He took us on a test drive so we could get a feel for a particular Pilot we were looking at. Once we decided to purchase the car, Sammy did everything he could to make it a seamless process for us. There was no haggling over the price, no bait and switch. Everything was as it should be, which was the opposite of what we were expecting. Sammys Finance Manager Freddy, even beat the rate of the bank that we had the pre approval with by almost 2 points. This was a very pleasant surprise as our credit is not excellent by any means. During the sales process, I had to walk out a few times in tears. Sammy did not take advantage of the situation. He was extremely patient and fair. We got a fair value for our trade in (a little higher than we expected). After some further small bargaining back and forth over things such as taxes, trade in, misc. expenses, we purchased our certified used Honda Pilot. Overall, one the saddest days of our life had a positive ending thanks to Sammy and his team at DCH Academy Honda (Old Bridge). Their follow up since our purchase has been great and we would not hesitate to recommend them as a trustworthy, fair, professional, and kind dealership. While we are still mourning our sweet pet, at least the car situation is one less thing that we have to worry about. We are happy/satisfied with our Honda Pilot and we have Sammy and Freddy to thank about that.

I definitely recommend family and friends to do business with Sam. He is very experienced and he knows what he's doing. The best thing about him is that he explains every detail about the car in a simple way that makes it so easy for people who don't know much about cars like me. My family and I will be returning to him for future car purchases. I am usually very picky and I take my time even when deciding on a color, but Sam was very patient and showed my everything I needed to know and answered all my questions which made it so easy for me to pick.

Buying my new Honda Civic was a great experience thanks to Stephen Leung and other members of the Academy Honda in Old Bridge, New Jersey. Their service was professional and efficient. Academy Honda was the fifth dealership I had been to in two days. I decided to buy from them based on their enthausiam and willingness to please the customer. I would definitely recommend this car dealership to anyone interested in buying a Honda. It was an overall great experience!

Nitin Bassi is a all round good person. That said, he knows his job very well. Knows his product and all details about the car you are interested in. He's not that "What can I put you in today?" type of sales person. I think he should be training people who are thinking of going into Sales. I've been buying cars for a long time and never met a sales person like this.Nitin has a sucessful future in any thing he does. Nitin, thank you for helping us purchase a Honda. The best of luck to you and your family,Sara & Frank Ascone

I had been shopping around the new 2012 Civic EX over the internet and sent out emails to several Honda dealers in the state. Stephanie, the internet sales representative provided me will a quote that was far less than any offers I had received. The quote broke down all the prices and included the out the door price like I had asked. This WAS the price I paid for the car, no baloney dealer add-ons or anything. My salesman was Sam Beshay, he was great to work with. He made all the accommodations I asked for and did not try to pressure me. It was great working with him and I recommend you ask for him when you stop into the showroom. This was the first car I ever purchased and Stephanie and Sam made it very enjoyable experience. I recommend you stop by DCH Academy Honda if you are looking for a deal!

This is my third purchase with DCH Academy Honda. I will always remain a loyal customer to this dealership, because of their honesty and professionalism. Paul was extremely knowledgeable, efficient and easy to communicate with; he made everything as comfortable as can be. Ruben , the Sales Manager, was extremely helpful and courteous, which added to the outstanding experience. This Dealer never lets me down! I am very happy with the entire purchasing experience and will highly recommend DCH Academy Honda.

I had a very nice, pleasant and hassle free experience with this dealership. Though I found a car that suited my budget only on my third visit but on all three occasions, the treatment of the sales stuff was very friendly. Unfortunately, I don't remember their names. On my third visit, Tim was the salesman who worked with me. He was very straight forward and not pushy at all. In fact none of the salesman were pushy, guess that's the work culture in that dealership. All in all, I would recommend to must give a visit to this dealership if you are looking for a new/used car.

I received outstanding customer service the past three days from Mr. Marszalek. The cover of my catalytic converter fell off and when I noticed it, I immediately called DCH Honda to find out what was hanging out of my car. Mr. Marszalek was the service rep that helped me when I arrived at the dealership. He was extremely courteous and professional and assisted me in resolving the mechanical problems with my car.I cannot speak highly enough of Mr. Marszalek's respectful manner in which he assisted me. In particular, he was very kind and sensitive when I realized that I did nt have enough money to cover the cost of the necessary service. Mr.Marszalek assisted me in rescheduling my service appointment at a later date when I was able to afford the service.I was extremely pleased with the overall experience at DCH. I completed the service today and was able to thank Mr. Marszalek again for his excellent service. I asked him if there was a way for me to advise DCH Honda of the wonderful service that I received. He told me that I could make a customer service report on this website.Many thanks! I will highly recommend DCH to others as a result of my most recent experience.Bernice Z. Klein

I needed to get an used car due to an accident in which my old car was totaled. I checked the Internet and found that the stock in DCH Academy was very good. When I visited them I got great customer service from Mr. Moy who was very patient showing us every car and I ended up buying a great car, almost new at a very reasonable price. By the way it was pouring and Mr Moy did not hesitate showing us the cars and offering an umbrella. A very good experience.

I made an oil change appointment with the "Express" Service Department at DCH Academy Honda for Monday, July 25, 2011. I show up to the appointment on-time and they tell me it'll be a TWO HOUR wait. Um, what...?!? I asked him why and the guy told me because some employees didn't show up for work that day. Um, what...(in THIS economy)?!? He said it normally takes an hour. Um, what...?!? Oil change locations take 15 - 20 minutes tops so where's the "express" in Express Service Department. I had to reschedule. I e-mailed the General Manager and no reply, which doesn't surprise me. I've leased three Hondas from them. There won't be a fourth. So much for my free oil changes included with my lease.

In the end I not only drove out with the car I wanted but the price was better than I expected. I did not feel like they were selling me extras I didn't need nor did i feel like they were being dishonest just to. Make a sale. I plan on continuing to purchase my vehicles through them in.

When we walked through the doors, we were immediately greeted by Sam Beshay. Later, Ruben explained to us the differences between buying a used car and leasing. We immediately knew that leasing was the right choice. Ruben showed us all the possible payment options. Once we decided, he got the financial part of the deal done within an hour. Meanwhile, Sam took us on a test drive in the car, showed us all the funcitions of the car, and helped us add the new car to our car insurance. He helped us get the best offer our insurance provider could give us. They were both extremely friendly and fast.

I have purchased and leased a number of new vehicles over the years and my experience with Stephen & John of DCH Academy Honda, of Old Bridge, NJ was an outstanding experience. The entire process, from walking through the showroom door to the delivery date. John & Stephen were and are perfect. They were knowledgeable, helpful. They were honest. The price that was quoted was the price that they agreed to. There was no last minute "stories" that you usually get when the car is delivered. The finance part was just as wonderful. Stephen walked me through and explained every aspect of the DCH dealership. John ensured on more than one occasion that the process was going through smoothly. This was a perfect new car purchase experience. I could not have asked for more. I wish I could purchase a new car everyday and deal with Stephen & John everyday. Vincent.

John Carino and Sam Beshay presented very professionally. They did not act like pushy sales people, but instead more like teachers trying to educate a lay person about vehicles and the technology associated w/ them. Their product knowledge made a hard decision of what car is right for me much easier. The congeniality of the GM complimented the personality of a very nice sales consultant.-Dr. K.Fotiou

I came to DCH Academy for a new 2012 Civic. I had done a lot of research before buying and had visited several dealers near my home. Unfortunately, because of my young age I was not treated well at those dealers. Most were only interested in getting rid of their 2011 models and were completely unwilling to negotiate the price of the 2012s. I was told to 'take it or leave it' and I that I was wasting their time.Frustrated by those experiences I decided to request quotes online from dealers further away from my neighborhood. To my surprise, DCH responded right away with the lowest quote of all the dealers. Much lower than quotes other sales people told me was the best I would find anywhere.When I arrived at DCH I was welcomed with a friendly greeting and impressed by their well organized scheduling. Having already test driven the car elsewhere, I sat down with Marcia Dietrick to discuss purchasing. She was very friendly, courteous, and professional. Unlike other dealers' sales people who always talked down to me, I found her a pleasure to talk to since she treated me with respect. I knew the final asking price was extremely fair and felt comfortable knowing my business was going to a well run dealer.I have and will in the future recommend Marcia to others. She went out of her way to personally deliver my car to me since I came alone. Even after the long trip home, she took the time to go over all the cars' features to make sure I wasn't left with any questions. She was extremely patient, helpful and knowledgeable. It was worth traveling the extra distance!

This was my 2nd time buying a used car from DCH Academy Honda. Obviously I was happy at my first buy which took me back to them again. This time i bought a Odyssey 2005. Though the car was "As is" for sale, the sales rep and manager took care few small issues on my request. I went back after 3 days for a brake problem they also helped me to resolved that. The sales rep and the manager were very friendly and pick/drop me from home couple of times during the whole transaction. I am very happy with the service and recommend DCU used car section to all.

Let's face it, buying a used car can be a real pain. You have to spend a lot of time to search for the one, unique car that meets your requirements at a price that fits your budget. Also, a lot of car salespeople out there are real dicks and make for an unpleasant experience.I was fortunate to find my car at my price here. Vipin worked with me to find a car that I liked without the high pressure sales tactics and Joe was able to give me a good price without a long and drawn out negotiation session. This dealership did everything that was necessary to get the deal done.Everyone that I dealt with was courteous and professional. I was even impressed with how they used their computer systems to keep everything neat and organized.Overall, I am satisfied with my experience.

He was very informative and helpful while working out all the kinks that come along with making a committment such as leasing a new vehicle. I would recommend working with Essam to anyone I know who is interested in purchasing / leasing a Honda.

Emailed five honda dealers for best price. This one was far and away the best and turned out to be too good to be true. We sought a Honda Civic Hybrid and upon entering were told to wait and chit-chatted with a salesperson and after an hour were told that they didn't have the model on the lot and we could test drive a regular civic instead. What a waste of time. Then they couldn't negotiate on price so we up and left and found a much better deal and honest salesperson at Willis Honda.

When going for my new car, i did not know what to expect. I had only dealt with Toyota before this. When I first met Sam he was very friendly and helpful and wanted to satisfy my needs right away. He went out of his way to pick up my car from another dealership and was even willing to come in on his day off. My experience was great! He was very thorough and efficient and answered all my questions without hesitation. He was knowledgeable and delivered to me exactly what i wanted. He WAY EXCEEDED my expectations and I would recommend him for any friend or family member that needed a new vehicle. The experience was definitely one of a kind.Thanks SAM!!

I was referred to Sam Beshay by a friend. He was very personable and helpful in the purchase of my 2012 Honda Civic. Everything went smoothly from the selection of the vehicle I wanted to the financing. I can't believe how quickly I was able to purchase a car and drive away. The last time I purchased a car (at another dealership), I was there all day. I was able to choose my car, test drive it, and arrange financing in under three hours. Sam made sure my car was impeccably clean before I took ownership of it. He went through all the features of it with me and gave me his business card so that I could call him if I had any questions. My family also thought he was the best salesman they ever encountered. He even offered them pizza for lunch. If you are in the market for a new or leased car, see Sam Beshay. Thank you, Sam, for making my car purchase a real pleasure!!!

DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge is a busy place...with good reason. I'd visited five New Jersey Honda dealerships already when I drove into their used car lot expecting yet another disappointment. My goal was simple; to find a clean, used Accord for the right price. If I was pressured or pushed toward any car that didn't fit, I'd be on to the next dealership before the dust and smoke cloud settled. There are plenty to choose from, after all. I was introduced to salesman Brian Brower, whose genuine manner and good-natured conversation quickly set him apart from other salespeople I've dealt with. We took a fairly brief tour of Academy's used inventory before I found the car that "spoke to me". A test drive later and I was ready to negotiate a price. Everything just fell into place. We haggled like old friends until I got a price that I was happy with. We discussed financing and I was pleasantly surprised to learn that Honda could beat my bank's rates. Before I knew it, the paperwork was finished...painlessly. My spotlessly detailed '07 Accord EX-L was delivered to my place of work the next business day. Thanks, Brian! I'd certainly recommend this dealership. Finding a car can be a bit traumatic. It isn't something that most of us do every day, so if they've got a vehicle that fits, you don't have to look any further. Do I have any negative feedback to offer? Yeah...stay away from the coffee.

Had been searching for a used car on the internet for about two weeks and had visited several dealers to see the actual cars I had narrowed down in my search. After calling the first dealer to make sure they still had the car, and they said they did, when I arrived, NO CAR, worse then that they tried to pressure me into another car, I Just left...The next several dealers would not leave me alone, you know how car salesmen can be. Back to the computer.. I found a car on DCH HONDA site and met Dave Mazurek, Internet sales director on line and he assured me the car i was interested in was available. Went to the dealership and found the car on the lot, looked it over for 10 minutes and not one salemen hit the lot, they actually let me look by myself. When i was ready, i went inside and was welcomed, asked who i needed to see, Dave arived promptly, took the time to explain all the options in the car and showed me how they worked, offered a test drive which i took, best of all worked out an offer I was very happy with. It was a no pressure, very smooth transaction with down to earth people that cared about the customer. Thank you Dave Mazurek. Its refreshing to know there are still people like you that care about the customer. I would recomend this dealership to anyone looking for a hassel free car buying experence.Mike Moss

Stopped by the sales room to ask a question about when I could return my leased vechicle. Also told him I was interested in buying a car. Mr Beshay stopped what he was doing and gave me his undivided atttention. He was very professional, patient, attentive and listened to what I had to say and what my concerns were in buying another car. He worked out the best deal for me and I left with another car that day. I am very pleased with my new car. Thanks to Mr Beshay at Acedemy Honda.

Was a good experience.The dealer Dave was quite polite and ready to listen.I think this dealer had good rate considering the kind of car we were looking for.So I believe if customers looking for used cars should consider DCH Academy ans should meet Dave.

I went to this dealer to buy a used Acura MDX. I was wary about buying an Acura from a Honda dealer but I decided to give a try. The Car was good and the test ride was also nice. However when it came to negotiating the price my experience was horrible. When I called up the sales guy to tell I am putting an offer he was agitated even before knowing my offer. He was like "This car is on Sale, what do you mean putting an offer?" Well this car was priced at 42K for 2010 Acura MDX tech package with 6K miles in it. I can get a new 2011 Acura with same features for 44K. Does he think I am an idiot to pay 42K? Anyway the call did not go well and he was not very friendly. He did not even bother negotiating and I decided to give it a pass. Overall a bad experience so beware when buying a used vehicle from this dealership.

The salesmen greeted me and my husband as soon as we step into the store.Very gently and listen and answered all our questions with very precise answers. I would recommend this dealer to everyone that need to buy a car. They explained everything we had to know abt. the car. Sincerely, Mrs. and Mr. Rene Ramos

MY EXPERIENCE WITH EDWARD FROM START TO FINISH WAS OUTSTANDING. I HAVE NEVER HAD SUCH CONFIDENCE IN A CAR DEALER AS I NOW HAVE WITH DCH ACADEMY HONDA. EDWARD TOOK HIS TIME TO GO OVER MY NEEDS AND THEN WENT ITEM BY ITEM, LINE BY LINE AND EXPLAINED EVERYTHING TO ME. HE ANSWERED ALL MY QUESTIONS AND WENT OUT OF HIS WAY TO ASSIST ME IN THE FINANCING ASPECT OF THE DEAL. FAR AND ABOVE THE NORM. EDWARD WAS VERY PERSONABLE AND I WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM TO ALL. ON A SCALE OF ONE TO TEN, MY EXPERIENCE WITH EDWARD WAS A WHOPPING 20. HE MADE SURE I WAS SATISFIED IN ALL ASPECTS AND THAT I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE OUT WITH A NEW CAR THE SAME DAY.

I was looking to buy a new car at the right price and DCH Academy gave me all possible discount upfront. I had not problems dealing with them what so ever and Michael Serra was extremely helpful and getting me through the deal. I remember he was working on a day that he took off just to ensure my deal is through since I was traveling on business. Way to go guys!

I went to DCH Academy Honda based on dealer rater reviews. I was skeptical at first since buying a car is a pretty significant purchase and car sales people have a bad stigma as it is. I delt with one of the BEST sales associates I have ever encountered, David Mazurek. He was extremely knowledgeable and took the time to uncover my wants and needs to get me in the perfect car. The entire experience was one to write home about. I recommend this dealership and David to anyone and everyone looking to buy a car, I promise you wont be disappointed. David is a true professional in his field.

I was looking for a used car to replace my 2001 Chrysler Sebring which already had 153,000 miles. When I first walked in to the office, I was greated with a smile by Ed Moy. He was very friendly and helpful from the getgo. We looked at a few different options and the thing the I really appreciated the most is that he was not pushy and really looked out for my main interest which was a very low monthly payment and no money down if possible. Being that I am very indecisive and didnt know what car I wanted but at the same time very picky, I would consider myself the nightmare customer, but Ed was very patient and always had an idea everytime I didnt like the car or the payment plan the bank offered. You see, banks today as per Ed, are not too open to allow to finance a car if older than 2005 or if it has more than 80,000 miles. Otherwise, the interest rate will be through the roof. So after 3 days and I believe 4 to 5 cars I have test driven, I finally closed in on a vehicle which was a 2006 Ford Taurus with 52,000 miles. Again, this was Eds idea and was not a car I would have ever imagined of even considering, let alone purchase it. Eds laid back style made it easy for me to make the decision. Everything I asked for was provided with no hassle. Car fax etc.. dealer ratings, car pricing comparisons and more.I am a very satisfied customer and would highly recommend this dealership and especially Edward Moy.

David was great from the second I walked into DCH. Found the car of my dreams for me and it sounded too good to be true. He had no problem letting my regular mechanic check out the truck to make sure it was as stated. David was kind enough to meet me at my mechanic with the truck so I did not have to waste time going to the dealer first. My mechanic stated the car was FLAWLESS, just the rear window was not working. Told David and they actually fixed the window on the spot and said they would replace the motor anyways just to make sure it wouldn't happen again. The motor was ready and installed within a few days. Motor install took less then 2 hours and instead of having me wait, David drove me to my job so I would not miss any work. I was able to get my registration same day as well which was very convenient. Highly rated customer service and best car I have ever owned. I have never seen a cleaner used car. They really know how to take care of the vehicles over there. They even washed the car minutes before I took it off the lot.

There is a reason that DCH Academy was rated Dealer raters No. 1 Honda Dealer in 2010. I started my search for a brand new Civic LX online with 8 dealerships. After comparing pricing and availability as well as ratings, I chose to correspond with DCH Academy and another dealer. With the 2 dealerships competing for my business, one was up front with their pricing, including all fees and one gave me the same old song and dance to try to lure me into the dealership and switch me off with a 2012 (which I wasn't interested in as Honda was offering incentives on the 2011's). Well you don't have to figure too hard which dealership I chose. DCH Academy was upfront with me the whole process. I dealt with Stephanie via several email correspondences. After I waited a week to buy, the LX had sold out and she was honest and up front and let me know that they were sold out before I came to the dealership. She gave me prices, colors and availability for the model down (DX-VP) and up (LX-S). When I got there, I was interested in the LX-S, which I test drove with Paul. Paul knew literally knew the car inside and out and was an absolute pleasure to deal with.The dealership was amazing with their pricing. To be fair, I was buying a 2011 right after the 2012 redesign model was released, so I didn't negotiate. I was happy with the price based upon my research. Nicest thing about the experience was that all the numbers were given to me before I walked into the dealer and I didn't have to pull out the email and say "But you quoted me xyz..". I was offered (read, not pushed) the etch insurance which I ended up taking. It was $300 and adds some additional coverage if my car is ever stolen (which is likely considering it's a Civic!). When I bought my last Civic, (in 2000 from a different dealer) when it was all over, I was rushed out to the front and had to find my new car which had a tag on it with my name misspelled! Not here, after all the paper is signed and they keys are handed over, Paul made sure I knew everything there was to know about my new car right to the very moment I drove off.I plan to buy another car (Honda or Acura) in the next year, and I won't hesitate to go to DCH Academy if I choose another Honda.

I have purchased many cars, vans, and trucks over the years and this purchase stands out as one of the most pleasant that I have had. Vipin was easy to deal with and very personable. I was an internet purchaser and the condition of the vehicle and the deal we agreed on over the phone was the same as when I arrived, no surprises. I would highly recommend Vipin to anyone looking for a used car.Also the finance person Freddie was very good, friendly and helpful. He tried to get me to purchase an additional warranty. He presented all the information about what I was getting at no charge and how I can enhance it with additional coverage. He was very good at selling but not pressuring me. I did not purchase the additional warranty because of budget reasons not because of the salesmanship or product.Although your dealership is almost 100 miles from my house I will still check to see what you have to offer when looking for my next purchase.thanks,Bob Elliott

I bought a Honda Element, sight unseen from DCH Academy Honda. I dealt with salesman Dave Mazurek. The car was a gem. The price was great and Dave was very helpful every step of the way. He made arraignments to pick me up from the Amtrak Station in Newark as I was coming from Maryland. Dave was honest and upfront about everything. There were no hidden charges. I would recommend Dave to anyone buying a car from DCH Academy Honda.

My wife walked in with 2 kids to purchase a new Odyssey. A price was quoted. She then resubmitted online (I guess anonymously?) and the price was $1500 lower! YUCK.They called us based on the online quote and after explaining our situation (that we were in already) to them, we were told us to "not to worry, come in and they would make a deal", we got up early on Sat., got the kids dressed etc, drove 30 minutes, came prepared with trade-in title etc. We were not in the place more than 15 minutes and we were told there would be NO haggling, the online quote was IT. As far as what the guy told me on the phone, I guess that was just to get me to come in. The gentlemen we worked with Mr. Leong was a poor salesman. I said all of about 20 words to him. With every question I asked, he had to go to some "suit" to get the answer. We were probably $1000-1500 off what we thought would have been a fair price on a $43K vehicle (after you add all the other fees). They didn't want to hear it! We were willing to pay cash, we were willing to take a car off their lot that was not our first choice.After *15 minutes* they told us goodbye!!We bought our original Odyssey (the one we were trading in) from them. We religiously took the car for service. My mom bought from them also. They didn't care!They watched us walk out as if we were really not going to buy (tire kickers?) We went to Open Road (Edison) and drove home a new car (the color we originally wanted) a few hours later! THEY will haggle!I believe I stuck to the facts, I do not wish DCH harm, only perhaps they will improve their service. I never would have gone there if, on the phone, the guy told me, that quote was the "bottomline" price. UNCONSCIONABLE!

My husband and I recently leased our 2nd Honda Pilot from DCH. WE had such a wonderful experience. In every way they were helpful, courteous& attentive. I would highly recommend our sales man, Sam Beshay. He was wonderful and very quick and negotiating. Once again this was a great lease experience at DCH. They are always very helpful in every way. If we are to return for another Honda in future we would use Sam again. He was wonderful with everything.The whole process was very quick which was great for us. DCH is overall a wonderful dealership. This is why we returned. We would recommend DCH to anyone looking to buy/lease a Honda. I can not thank them enough. I love my new vehicle!!

Sanjay Chadda was Our salesman He was the reason we bought our 2008 CRV he was a big help and worked with us on a great price. Ask for him next time you are looking for a used car. Everyone at the dealership was kind and very helpful. They listened to what our needs were for a car and tried to show us as many cars as they had with in our price range.

David and Pete made my car buying experience simple and easy. They worked very hard to get my credit approved and get me a deal that I could afford on the car I wanted. I walked in with an intention of looking and walked out with a great car at a great price. I would definitely recommend this dealer to any one of my friends or relatives.

This is by far the BEST dealership experience I have ever had. I am currently leasing a Toyota RAV4 from another dealership (also from the DCH group), and never thought the day would come that I would actually buy a new car.My wife and I were looking for a "commuter car." We already had a primary vehicle and we considered buying a used vehicle or leasing another one. At DCH Academy Michael Serra and his sales manager, Ruben Arcila, laid out the numbers for leasing or buying a new '11 Civic. Throughout the whole process we NEVER felt pressured. They were open to negotiating and were more interested in getting us in a car than squeezing every penny from us, and in the end we settled for buying new. We settled on getting a Civic LX, nothing fancy or chock-full of unnecessary add-ons. The only features we were ASKED about and OFFERED were the etching and remote starter, but we were never pushed to buy the glow-in-the-dark cup holders or the hand-massaging shifter-knob.Michael Serra has got to be the most effective sales person I have ever met. Through the whole process it felt that he was on our side. I know these guys learn and practice various sales techniques, but none of these were at any point deceptive. My wife also works in sales, and never did she detect any red flags. The finance manager, Tian Reid, handled the final phase of the sale. Tian was extremely friendly and patient with us. He took his time explaining everything we were signing for.It is always advisable to visit multiple dealerships and shop around before buying a car, but if you are looking for a Honda, consider yourself lucky that a dealership like this exists. Within 24hrs (two visits) we completed our search for a new car. We thought this was going to take days (if not weeks) of unnecessary back-and-forth with the sales staff but we were wrong. The experience was extremely memorable. The names given in this review are all from memory, if that says anything.I look forward to the day I need another car. I will, without a doubt, go to DCH Academy Honda before considering another manufacturer or dealership, even if my budget allows for that Maserati GranTurismo I've been wanting.

I went to DCH Academy in Old Bridge not planning to purchase a car right away. I had been saving up for a car for quite some time, so the purpose of my trip was to shop around and look for the best deals. As soon as I walked in Marcia approached me as friendly as can be. The whole time I was there she did everything possible to help me. Shopping around quickly turned into buying a new car right then and there because of marcia and all of her dependable resources i knew i could rely on.

I got a price over the internet and travelled beyond the nearest dealer to test drive. I told them we would make a decision tonight (Saturday) and be back in on Monday (they are closed Sunday). At first they told me they would give me the same price Monday even though prices were going up immediately b/c of Japan troubles. Right before I left, the manager came and said they would not honor the price Monday. Same car would be $800 more. IT'S ALREADY ON THE LOT!!! Ridiculous. And, I would have come back...it wasn't a bait and switch on my part. But now I won't.

I went to Academy Honda because a friend of mine had purchased 2 vehicles there in the past. Also, I was interested in the Honda CR V and wanted to get a look and possibly a test drive. My salesman, Mr. Sam Beshay, was very nice, informative and I felt no pressure to buy. He explained all the features of the vehicle, asked if I wanted a test drive and informed me about certain features. I wound up buying a car on the spot which was not my intention. After hearing the facts and also that I would qualify for .9% financing and this deal was over 3/31/2011. I took advantage of that and zero down, and I am very happy with my purchase and I feel confident that I made the right decision and that Honda will stand by me in case I need help with anything. The staff in general and Mr. Beshay in particular was very professional, helpful and I had a great experience.

My experience with DCH Honda was two fold. Working with David Mazurek was great. David was honorable, friendly, considerate, professional, and dependable. When I called, David answered quickly. He was available via email and I could depend on him to be helpful. I would easily give David an A+. He was every thing I could hope for as a car salesperson.DCH Honda - not so much. They were a bit slow processing paperwork. Unless David did the work, it did not get done. As far as I could tell, the dealership didn't do anything to help with the transaction except take my money. I paid upfront to have the car transported back to Idaho. When that didn't happen quickly enough, I setup the auto transport myself. It took the dealership almost 3 weeks to return my money. That seemed excessive to me. When you are dealing with an organization remotely, you need that dependability and trust factor to be a high priority.I would rate DCH Honda a C-, below average. Thankfully with David as my contact, I can give the transaction a solid B all around.

Good a good price with promotion for Honda Accord 2011. There were couple ofissues but I was very pleased with way DCH handled and Bart Szczepanaik was extremelyfriendly (even gave a ride to nearest train station) and took care of issues well. Very honest and straight forward dealership with no surprises and everything handled to satisfaction of customer.

This was my first personal experience with purchasing a "just about new" car. I was very nervous about making such a large financial purchase, but after I had done my research, I knew I was getting a good solid car. DCH Academy Honda had exactly what I was looking for. Vipin Rishi couldn't have been nicer in making me feel comfortable about my puchase. Adrian Acosta worked with me to establish the best possible payment plan that was going to work for us. Although I wouldn't recommend purchasing on the weekend, as I was there for many hours (I really had no idea it would take so long to process). But, on a better note, we were made comfortable while waiting and my kids were entertained by TV and popcorn. Thank you! I LOVE MY CAR!

John Nguyen - Sales Manager DCH Academy Honda,It is my pleasure to "Thank you" for having AGAIN another great sales experience at your dealership !I had previously "shopped" several Honda Dealers some years back, Steven Leung and your dealer team earned my business then. Since that time I have used your service and parts facility from time to time, yes because Honda makes a great product it doesn't require many trips into the service facility. During those times I have always visited the sales floor and your staff always was very attentive and courteous even though they knew I wasn't planning on buying a new vehicle that day. Well the day had come to consider the possibility of replacing my 2008 Accord Sedan EXL. Without ever considering "shopping" other dealers you have earned my business and trust from our prior deals. Your professional and courteous sales team of Steven Leung, Ruben Arcila, and Lilly Li went above and beyond my expectations to assist me in switching out to a new 2011 Accord Sedan EXL. You see , I'm also a sales manager for a worldwide Fortune 500 Company and I can truly recognize Sales Professionals that care about their customers and represent the products properly. This comes from years of dedication, education on your products, and understanding their customers needs. This again has been a pleasurable experience please pass my sincere "Thank you" to your team once again.!I certainly will recommend you and your dealership to family and friends! Regards,J ReinhardtColts Neck NJ

This is the second Honda Pilot we've purchased/leased from Sam. He is just a pleasure to work with. Sam was actually recommended to us from several friends and we will continue to recommend him to anyone we know looking for a car. Not only is he patient, kind and helpful, but very hardworking and honest as well. We cannot say enough great things about Sam Beshay. While we do not even live near DCH Academy Honda, we have no problem travelling the distance since we never find a good deal at the dealerships in our area or salespeople so wonderful. In addition, the managers at DCH that we spoke with on the phone and in person were a pleasure to deal with as well. We will definitely be back!!!

Sam was excellent on follow up and made the car buying experience very enjoyable. Sam is very knowledgeable in the car market and makes you feel comfortable when making such a large purchase. If you are looking for a new car go to this dealer and ask for Sam Beshay and you will be very pleased with your next car purchase.

For my next car I am definitely going back to see David, and without a doubt I would recommend him to anyone in the market for a car.

Both Mark and Nitin were great to work with. Initially I was not going to purchase a Honda for my next car. But, when I saw how great they were with my mom when she bought her Civic from them. I came back the next weekend and purchased a 2011 Honda Accord and they both made the experience smooth and painless. They were friendly and not pushy like some car salesman can be. I did not feel pressured and I felt like I was given the facts without any filler in between. My experience was a positive one and I would recommend anyone interested in getting a Honda to see Mark and Nitin they will not dissapoint you.

My family and I had a terrific buying experience with this dealership (DCH Academy Honda), specifically with our salesperson, Sanjay Chadda. Sanjay was personable and extremely knowledgable about cars. What set him apart from all the people we encountered during the three weeks we had shopped for a car is that he focused on educating my wife and I on the options and overall details associated with different makes and models. The reason I was lead to share my experience about this transaction may be summed up in this manner: We purchased a used car for between 5 and 10K, however Sanjay provided exceptional service as if we were purchasing a $90,000 vehicle. This guy was great! We look forward to buying our next car from him.

Academy was the only dealer between Tarrytown, NY and Avenel, NJ that could tell me when the car would be in.It came in on the exact date it was promised. I would tell anyone to buy their car from DCH Academy Honda! Thank you Mark and Michael.I love my Si!

When we walked into DCH Old Bridge we were warmly greeted by the Sales receptionist, who in turn introduced us to our sales consultant, Sam Beshay. He was very polite & friendly and asked us what vehicle we were interested in. We looked at a few models in the showroom and Sam also brought around front the Crosstour for us to look at since this was not a model that was displayed in the showroom. Sam was very knowledgeable on all of the Honda models and was able to answer all of our questions. He was extremely patient with all of our questions (even though we probably asked them more than once). Not once was Sam pushy and he gave us the space we needed to talk amongst ourselves. We ended up taking a test drive in a CR-V and I fell in love with the vehicle. We ultimately purchased a CR-V and we were extremely happy with our negotiations with Sam and the DCH dealership. We would highly recommend potential buyers to visit DCH Academy Honda and would absolutely advise them to ask for Sam Beshay!

If we are talking about the customer service, Quality of Work & Friendliness, Essam was very friendly, profession and know his job very well. He took me step by step though the process. I did not even feel the time. After 50 minutes, I was driving my Pilot home. Regarding the price, when I told Essam that I did my homework on the internet searching for my future car with all the options that I would like to have, he offer me a price that is less than all the competitors. The overall experience was so good from Essam and all the DCH Academy Honda staff and I defiantly advise any potential Honda buyer to visit DCH Academy Honda and ask for Essam Beshay.

Very delighted to work with Sam B. in Honda New Car Sales. Sam had great follow up skills, and he showed extreme patience upon all 3 visits before buying our FIRST EVER brand new Honda - 2010 Civic Hybrid. On the first visit, we test drove the Honda Insight. We explained that we needed to do our homework as we wanted to also test drive a Toyota Prius since this was our first hybrid car. After testing the Prius, we explained to Sam that the Prius was quieter. He asked us to come back for a second test drive to make sure. Since I did ntot like the Insight due to wind noise at higher speeds, Sam had the Civic Hyrid pulled out from the snow it was buried in. I explained that my wife had to also test drive it and I had to come back with here. We did on the next Tuesday (Jan 25). After test driving it, we purchased the car, and he wanted us to take the car that night. I explained that although I would agree, I really could not look at the car for perfection - meaning scratches, etc. Sam also noted with the dealers's checklist that the owner's manual was missing and that it would be special ordered.Of course, on Wednesday we had a snowstorm, and on Thursday, when Sam followed up, I explained there was a scratch on the dash. DCH Academy Honda delivered on the owner's manual, on repairing the scratch, and on repairing the TPMS sensor in one tire. A dealership is not considered great on having no imperfections, but more on the management of exceptions - this is where Sam, dealership management, and the dealership support staff at the dealership really follow through to excellence. It is for these reasons why DCH Academy Honda has received a high rating in all categories.

I went to this dealership to inquire about an 09 Honda Fit that i saw online. Was helped by Emily who worked very hard to get the price i wanted. Purchase was quick and painless and she was very helpful. The dealer even went as far as to help me with an issue I was having with my tire a few days after I purchased the car. I was promised a replacement a few days from today. Thanks to Emily, Adrian, and Peter for all their help. BEST HONDA DEALERSHIP I'VE EVER BEEN TO, VERY HELPFUL AND PERSONABLE, WILL BUY AGAIN AND RECOMMEND TO FREINDS AND FAMILY.Anthony B.

Just as they advertise - No haggle, No hassle! Simply provided the best price for leasing a Honda Civic. Got the color we wanted. Really nice sales team. Also, got a remote starter installed at no charge!The best sales experience I have ever had with a car dealer.

The people at this dealership were extremely friendly and willing to work with me. I had a need to get rid of 2 cars and we accomplished that and wallked out with a Honda Accord. They accomodated my needs and I was very satisfied. I would highly recommend this dealership.

I bought the car on 23rd December and was delivered on 3rd of January. The dealer said that because of the snow they could not prepare the car. When I got the car on 3rd January, 2011, the dealer did not install the remote starter they were supposed to install. The shelf in the trunk was missing. So was the mud guards they were supposed to install and that I had paid for. Extremely poor service...

Got a price online and brought it into the dealership. Everything went very smooth and they were able to get me a great rate on my financing. Erich Tam did a good job explaining the cars available and which one would be perfect for me. Hussain in financing was nice and didn't pressure me at all. I didn't want some of the options and I wasn't pressured into buying them.I enjoy the car a lot compared to my old one and will be definitely purchasing another Honda in the future from them due to the great price and service.

After going to several dealers and waiting for hours, I was surprised at how easy my deal was at DHC Honda. I first worked with Stephanie in the Internet Sales Department. It was so much easier to get my quote over the phone with a breakdown. When I went into the dealer a few days later, they honored everything that I discussed with Stephanie online. My salesman was Nitin Bassi. He was wonderful. He got everything done for us, and instead of waiting around for the car to be cleaned, my husband and I went to lunch. We came back and waited for maybe 10 minutes for the finance manager, Hussain Chaudhary. Everything was simple and fast. I hate waiting at dealerships that take hours to process paperwork and try to haggle prices with you. I had a wonderful experience, and I highly recommend this dealership to anyone in the market for a new car.I'll continue this review once I receive the extra accessories that I purchased for my car.

I went to DCH Academy Honda to buy a certified used Honda. I knew what I wanted because I had researched online. We worked with a knowledgeable and pleasant salesman. This was an entirely low-pressure sale, which was very nice. They didn't play games, so everything went smoothly. Overall I was very satisfied with the purchase of my car.

We went to three dealerships before we ended up at DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge. The other 2 dealers we went to were engaged in deceptive practices, claiming to give you low prices and then cheating you on the trade in. However, at DCH Academy Honda, there were upfront with the whole transaction. We are particularly grateful for 2 individuals, who were immensely helpful throughout this transaction. Sunil Fernandes, the Sales Manager helped us locate a Honda Odyssey with exactly the right color and model we were looking for. Not only was he efficient and courteous, but we were pleasantly surprised but his level of professionalism and efficiency in making our transaction go smoothly. There were no hidden deals or catches - everything went smoothly as promised. Sunil told us the purchase price of the car, which was the lowest of the three dealerships and helped us with our trade in which was more than fair. Sunil then referred us to one of the salesman , who helped us finish the paperwork.Michael Serra, the sales associate was also an excellent individual to work with. He was efficient in having us fill out all the paperwork and helped us navigate through the whole process very smoothly. Michael Serra went the extra step and stayed with us even though the store had closed, he told us how to use the car and all its features. He was very personable and knowledgable. Michael Serra then told us that if we had any problems , we were more than welcome to contact him.The business manager, Lily helped us finish the paperwork. She also was very efficient and competent. Overall, I cannot rave enough about this car buying experience. DCH Honda was a dream to work with. I wish I had gone to them first and avoided the headaches the other two dealerships gave us. Usually we are very cynical about car dealerships and the games they play, but I am pleased to report none of these games were evident at DCH Academy Honda.

This dealership was far the best we went to for our new lease. Customer service was great right from the start. I would recommend this dealership to anyone. We would even get another Honda just because the transaction was so smooth! They went above and beyond to ensure our satisfaction and needs were meet.

DCH Academy honda beats all the others i visitied hands down.They give the price/quote over phone and email (shows how clean they are and that they dont play games).I got an awesome price. When i asked the sales person whether I can check out another dealership, he said go right ahead, there is no harm, and he was confident that their prices are the best.At the end of the day, the overall experience with DCH Academy honda was best among all. Awesome price, very professional, friendly and no gimmicks. They stuck to their quote and there were no hidden charges whatsoever.I would highly recommend DCH Academy hond if you are shopping for a honda.-TApas

The reputation of DCH Acadamy Honda (Old Bridge) as a top-shelf dealership is dependent on the quality of its sales representatives.I had the pleasure of working with JORGE MALDANADO in 2010 when I leased two 2010 Honda CR-Vs and again in December 2011 when I leased A 2011 CR-V.I specifically requested Jorge because he showed me since 2010 that he truly cares about developing a strong, on-going relationship with me. I call him about issues - he finds the right solution ALL THE TIME, ALWAYS. COMPLETE CUSTOMER SATISFACTION JORGE MALDONADO is a young sales consultant, but please do not consider youth a negative factor in choosing whether to speak to Jorge. Give Jorge a chance to help you find the right solution for you. JORGE is a seasoned sales consultant and understands the importance of building a sound on-going relationship built on trust with each of his customers. I could tell in the way he conducts himself. He understands the "tricks" that some auto consultants use to lease or sell automobiles at an inflated and outrageous profit, but is un-affected by them because HE DOES NOT EMPOY ANY TRICKS. He is honest, and does the right thing, at the right time, with integrity and honesty from the moment he meets you. He focuses on the customer and on achieving customer satisfaction. He focuses on delivering the best value he can to each of his customers. He does the leag work necessary to develop a strong relationship built on mutual respect and results. He actions match his representations.I strongly recommend JOREGE MALDONADO, and urge everyone who is in the market for a Honda to visit DCH Acadamy Honda and speak to him. Mark

He makes you feel like you are with a friend not with someone who just wants your money.He's very professional and kind.You need more salesemen like him with such a human touch.I'll enjoy my odyssey and will recommend Stephen to my friends.ThanksAbdoulaye

Erich, Hussein and DCH Academy are examples that all dealerships should follow. Erich knows his stuff about the cars and the features. He very friendly and left no question unanswered. Well worth the 1 1/2 hour drive down to DCH Academy from Bayside, Queens. Hussein in finance was also great to work with, never pushed to buy anything I didn't want. Definitely recommending all my friends to go to DCH Academy.

This is the second time that I have dealt with DCH Honda and Steven Leung. I came back because Steven is the best car salesperson I've ever encountered. I have been buying cars since 1966 and he is by far the best. He's efficient, friendly, and very professional. I called him and told him what kind of deal I wanted and he made it work and I left with a new Honda CRV!Also, my thanks to all the staff at DCH! They're all very professional and courteous!Joy A.

My experience with DCH Honda in Old Bridge was an extremely positive one. Everyone was very kind and accomodating. I would especially like to thank Marcia Dietrick,the new car sales representative. She made my new car purchase a rewarding one. I would recommend Marcia to anyone who is looking for an honest person with a willingness to work with you. She not only sold me my Honda, but sold me with her amazing personality..Thank you, Marcia. Dawn Rankin

I was generally pleased with the overall process of buying my new Honda CRV. I traded in an Audi A4 and while I was not completley pleased with the trade in price they initially offered, they came up and at the finance manager's suggestion to seek a refund from the Audi's unused service plan, I was able to make up the difference.Overall, Marcia, the sales person I worked with was great!

While buying my used car here, I never felt pushed or pressured. My salesman Sanjay was terrific, he went the extra mile, explained all my options, worked hard to get the most for my two trade-ins, his friendliness put me at ease and overall we had major help from all the staff. And most importantly I got a great car for great price. I would definitely recommend DCH Academy Honda.

I had a wonderful experience with DCH Academy Honda. My salesman Mike made me feel comfortable. He was not pushing anything on me and never made me feel obligated to buy a vehicle. He worked with me for hours to get the best possible deal and to make sure I was happy with the vehicle and the price. I would also like to recognize Paul who was very friendly and helpful with choosing the perfect vehicle. Lily, the business manager was also very friendly, even though it was late and a long process. I would deffinitely recommend this dealership to anyone who is looking to buy a new or used vehicle. Everyone there has an awesome personality and are very knowledgeable. I would also like to thank them for giving me a chance, because I went to Freehold Honda, and there were no salesmen or managers that would help me because I am a young woman and my old car was under my parents name. They are the best I am so happy about my decision!!!

I got a quote over the Internet and when I went to the dealership, they were very friendly and didn't try to "bait and switch" or low ball or do any other high pressure tactics. Nitin was a pleasure to work with, as was Hussain. They made the entire experience pleasant and I would recommend this dealership to my friends/relatives.

Before finding out about DCH of Old Bridge, I was in Edison Honda and called Freehold Honda neither of those two places gave me the attention I felt I needed and the one that did was trying to scam and lie to me. So, I kept looking and finally found dealer in Old Bridge. Called on Tuesday spoke to Chris, I told him what I wanted and when I needed the car by and within ten minutes he called me back and the deal was done. Took care of most of transaction by phone until I came in on Saturday and met my buddy Khalil. Super friendly and honest guy. He was super kind and quick through out entire transaction. To make a long stort I have my new Honda and love it. I would recommend Old bridge Honda to anyone. Khalil is five star to me and my family..The De Marco Family!

I just bought 2010 Honda Accord.

Bart spent two hours with test drives and explaining features and differences.

I would STRONGLY recomend purchasing a Honda from this dealership. Additionally There is no doubt in my mind that the individuals you should work with are Mark Kamatoy & Michael Serra. These individuals insure that you understand the product, give you the fairest price and you are treated as a person not an income.....They are the best salesman I have ever delt with and worked with me from start to finish. We did not play the game of wait let me see if so and so will let me give a better price. They started and completed the deal to my satisfaction and more than met my expectations.THANKS MARK & MICHAEL!!!!!!!

My experience at DCH Academy Honda was amazing. There was a wide variety of Certified Pre-Owned vehicles to choose from with low mileage. The customer service was awesome. Ed Moy with very thorough with the paperwork and informed me of all the repairs done to the vehicle. He also was very attentive to my needs and made sure I walk out of the dealership with a smile on my face. I actually received a follow-up call from Edward Moy to see if I was happy with me purchase and to thank me for choosing DCH Academy Honda. I have never experienced such great care at an auto dealership as I did the day I purchased my Accord! I have always wanted a Honda Accord and now I have one! I love my car! Thank you Ed Moy and DCH Academy Honda!

I've been driving hondas since i was 17. One day i decided to lease a new one. My father told me to go DCH Academy Honda because they purchased a honda odyssey earlier this year. I was interested in leasing a honda civic or accord. I called and requested for Mark K. he previously dealt with my father on the odyssey he leased. I gave him my options and told him what i could work with as far as payments. I stopped in and met with Mark and he introduce me to a salesman, Khalil. We took both cars out for a test drive. After that I was really impressed with the performance with both vehicles. We got back to the dealership and went inside to talk about numbers. Initially I told them I was not ready to sign and soon as they heard that they said 'NO PROBLEM take your time." I was SHOCKED that they were not pressuring me to sign. They cared more about what I wanted rather then making commission. When you go other dealership they just want ripped you off but DCH was an awesome experience.About 2 weeks past and I was still trying to figure out payments and wanted to make sure that this is what i really wanted. I called Mark and I told i wanted to take the civic. He told me to fill out a credit application online. After a few minutes Mark called me saying " You have good credit but not enough established." When I heard that I knew that i was not going to get this car. After days past, I called Mark again I asked him if their is anything he can do for me because i wanted to take this vehicle home. About an hour later he left a voicemail. He had good news and DCH honda was approving me of the car. It made my day. Few days later I came in to take a look at it and fill out the proper paper and a few minor issues with the insurance company but Khalil was very very patient with me. He is a great salesman. The best I have to say about Khalil is that he thinks of his customers first. He is very courteous and even offer me beverages as I wait. The whole entire staff is friendly and patient. I think with a great staff like this is a successful dealership. With DCH Academy Honda I was able to lease my very first vehicle and I'm loving my new car. Many thanks to Mark(internet), Khalil(sales), Dimitry(finance) , John(sales manager), Ruben(sales manager)Thanks guys for making it possible!!!!

I received the Internet price from Harshad Panchal (HP) and decided to visit the place. My wife was looking for the specific color. HP checked other DCH stores and told me that the desired color car was available in Eatontown and promised me to have it in one or two days. HP gave me the best price. Jorge was my sales person from that point onwards. Jorge called me the next day and car was ready for the pick-up. I went to the store and worked on my finance and got the best deal on finance also. Jorge explained me all the paper work and available features about my new car (2010 Honda Insight). This is my third Honda car and no one, ever explained the car features the way he did. Thanks a lot!I drove my car home as promised and Jorge called after few days just to make sure if I had any questions. I am happy to say I purchased one from Jorge. I would highly recommend anyone who is interested in a Honda to see Jorge at DCH Academy Honda.

I was searching around for a 2010 Honda CRV in a certain color. Through my research, I found that DCH Honda-Old Bridge, NJ having it in stock and as well as the best price I had been given. So I went there. A lovely receptionist introduced to a sales representative named Dan Fisher, I explained to Dan what I was interested in. Dan guided me to the location where they had them located, I am happy to say I purchased one from Dan at DCH-Honda. I would highly recommend anyone who is interested in a Honda to see Dan Fisher at DCH Honda, Old Bridge NJ for your next automobile purchase. Dan If you ever see this, Thanks again. I love my CRV.

You are the best!!!Highly recommend the pleasant and energetic team that went above and beyond for me.I wanted to surprise my wife with new car for her birthday. I went to another Honda dealer close to my house and placed the order for specific model and color, however after multiple promises to find it for me I received the phone call from sale person evening before my wife birthday saying they were not able to get the color I requested and offered another one(which my wife dislike). I was really upset and didn't know what to do. Next morning I decided to call other dealers and check if anyone can get me the car within few hours. All guys were great, they called me with updates about their progress constantly, and around 4pm I received the good news.Mark told me they found color I requested in Paramus and I could pick my car following morning. I explained to him that I need it tonight, he put me on hold for about a minute and then said "OK, not a problem". Michael and other guys drove to Paramus and by 7pm I had new car for my wife. Thank you all for pleasant experience and for not letting me down.

Me and my wife recently leased a 2010 Honda Odyssey from this dealership, this was our first purchase from this dealership. When I called for price quote and vehicle availability the call was answered by Chris. He gave me a price quote promptly which looked pretty reasonable, he was very nice and honest while giving the quote.When we arrived at the dealership we were told that Khalil Qureshi will be our sales person. He was very friendly, caring and easy to work with; he explained every detail about the vehicle. The buying process was very quick, with no surprises and pressure.The finance manager Hussain was also very friendly and helpful. He did offer some warranty programs which I declined but he simply said that was fine; we continued signing the papers as there is a lot of paperwork involved with leasing.This was the most pleasant car dealership experience I have had so far in my life. I am definitely going to recommend this dealership to my fiends and family.

We have now purchased three vehicles from DCH Academy Honda, and with four more up and coming drivers in the family, I'm sure we will be back! Of course Honda is a great product, but the experience of buying a car can still be very stressful. It is not that way at this dealership. The pricing is honest, the transaction proceeds quickly and smoothly, and you do not feel pressured to make unnecessary purchases that you do not want. Our salesman, Edward Moy, was very friendly and helpful. When I returned the following day to to retrieve my other vehicle and expressed minor dissatisfaction with the way the car had been cleaned the night before, Mr. Moy immediately bought me to the service area; and when they were very busy, he recleaned the windshield himself! You don't find customer care and service like that every where!!

I had a very good buying experience at this dealership. Everything that was promised to me was delivered with no surprises. I was prepared for some sort of haggling as most dealers love to change the terms at the last minute, but that was not the case here. Andy Lau was my sales person and he was easy to work with. He answered my questions patiently and I felt no pressure. When I was negotiating the price of the car over email before visiting him, Andy was very detailed with with his responses, so that made be feel comfortable that there would be no surprises when I went into purchase.I did have another offer from a different dealer that was a bit less in price, but I sensed that they were not being totally honest with me. So I decided to take Andy's price, although a bit higher, and save myself the stress and haggling. It was a good decision.The finance manager was also easy to work with. He did offer several extended warranty programs, but I declined his offer, and he simply said that was fine and we moved onto signing the papers for the car.The dealership was an hour drive from my home, but it was well worth it. As long as this dealership's pricing continues to be competitive, I will not hesitate to buy from them again knowing that they will deliver what they promise.

I learned of your dealership from autotrader.com. I viewed a minivan online & called the dealership. I was pleasantly surprised when I spoke with Edward Moy. What a friendly and personable individual. He assured me he had a vehicle for me. I live 1 1/2 hrs away so the trip was a long one but a very productive one. My family purchased a used minivan from Edward. We are business owners and feel that our employees are the most important assets to our business and you certainly have a valuable asset in Edward. I will recommend your dealership to my family and friends and if we are looking for another vehicle in the future Academy Honda will be our first call. Thank you, Terri Leonardo

My wife and i recently leased a new pilot from this dealership and it was the most pleasant dealership experience i've ever had. The service was outstanding there were no hidden costs or things added to our paperwork once it was time to sign.They explained every detail of our new car to my wife so well that she felt comfortable enough to drive the new truck home. They were quick and efficient we weren't there for hrs even though it was a saturday and extremely busy.

We just purchased a new Accord EX and the service we received at this dealership was beyond excellent. They really stood by their word and provided great customer service. I've visited other dealers who lie to their teeth and push you towards things that are not really suitable for you but I had a completely different experiece at DCH Oldbridge. The staff was friendly and helpful and Sunil, the manager was the best. He stood by his word and provided great customer care. My family and I were very pleased and impressed by this dealership. I highly recommened DCH Academy Honda.

We were dealing with another Honda Dealer in NJ, with whom we had signed a lease but post-delivery insisted on a increase in price or return the car. We approached Sunil in DCH Academy, who not only worked with us to get a better deal but also advised and facilitated us from our situation with the other dealer. DCH went beyond their call of duty in ensuring that we as a customer get a fair deal. Our experience of buying a car was made smooth and stress free (having started with such a bad taste with the other Dealer).

Would highly recommend DCH Acadamy Honda at Old Bridge. The Management and Sales employees are professional and go beyond the call of duty to make you feel importanMarcia is Great. She was pleasant and patient with my mother and my requests for what we were looking for in a new car. She never pressured us, let us test drive several cars. Made us feel important.Marcia and Husain explained how I could finance the car with the best options for my budget. I feel we got a great deal on my new Civic EXL-- I love the car.

David is a very hard working friendly sales man. We came in to the showroom to buy the car on Wednesday the July 14th at 6.50 PM. David walked us thru the process and ensured that we got our desired car and drove out. By the time we left it was 11 PM.The whole team is good including their finance person who does the credit check.I would revisit them for my next car.

Nitin is a wonderful sales person. He was friendly and knowledgeable from the get go. I felt very comfortable with him, and I would recommend him and DCH Academy Honda to anyone looking to buy a car. The finical department was also very friendly and treated me respectfully and answered every question honestly.

I have acquired four Honda vehicles from DCH Academy Honda with Hussain as the sales consultant/financial representative. Bart ably assisted as the sales consultant in my recent lease. Both gentlemen were knowledgeable, friendly, straight forward and extremely responsive to my questions and ideas on a timely basis. I never had the feeling of being at a "highway dealership in dealing with Hussain and Bart.

This is the second used Honda I have purchased in the last 5 months. I have dealt with numberous dealships and salepersons.Edward was by far the most gracious, professional, and helpful associate I have dealt with over this time. I would not hesitate to recommend Edward to a friend.If I was aware that Edward moved to a different dealership, I would be very tempted to move with him as I felt he would not mislead me on a purchase.

The staff at the dealership was extremely friendly, helpful, and willing to work a deal to fit our needs. We didnt have to haggle and deal with the sales person going back and forth to the finance office and coming out with a different deal each time. We told them what we needed and what we could afford, and they gave us exactly what we asked for. Bart was very friendly and helpful. I strongly recommend him and the dealership!!

I went into DCH Academy Honda to look at a Certified Pre-Owned Honda. I read almost all of the reviews and decided this was the place to go. I wasnt sure what I wanted, but I knew I wanted to get a great deal....and boy did I ever!!! My sales consultant was Edward Moy. He was fantastic! I got such a good deal on my Honda Civic EX, I still cant believe it! If youre in the market for a new or used car, I definitely recommend DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge! You'll be very pleased with the service and with the prices!!! THANKS EDWARD MOY!!!!

From the minute we walked in, we were treated as valued customers and not as prey. There was no pressure and our salesman, Khalil, was a true professional and made the purchase of our vehicle a very enjoyable experience. I highly recommend going to DCH Academy Honda and even more so, I highly recommend to work with Khalil. Keep up the great work!

I researched and visited many dealers. I live on staten island, so with that said i tried dealers in brooklyn, staten island and new jersey. I found DCHacademy honda to be the most reasonable in price which made me make the drive. They were the most helpful and personable salesmen/woman you will ever deal with. Made me feel comfortable handing over a large sum of money and that alone makes a great impression on me. They work with you, they are there for you, and i would no doubt recommend this dealer (as it was also recommended to me).

Nitan Bassi was an excellent salesman. He was very knowledable and went above and beyond what I had expected from a salesperson, explaining every detail of the car. Before we purchased our Odyssey Nitan went over the vehicle and in the showroom went over pricing for 3 differnt models. He made shopping for a new car pleasurable and in the future we will definitely use him again.

Ed Moy was exceptionally attentive, and very helpful in my car purchase. He also made sure the car was serviced with all the necessary work/repairs needed prior to my picking up the car. I definitely recommend Ed to anyone looking for a good car to buy.

Overall a great experience. No one running to you as you walk through the door harassing you like alot of other dealerships. EVERYONE in the entire place was friendly and funny (Jorge Maldonado). Jorge was very helpful and very knowledgeable with the cars and had an answer to every question thrown his way. They made the entire car buying process, which is usually very stressful, very smooth and a lot of fun. I would recommend this dealership to anyone interested in buying a Honda. I would even go back their to buy another one in the future.

I was an absolutely pleasant experience to work with Mr. Ghaw & Mr. Lau. They were up front about all aspects of the sale. Not once did I feel uncomfortable. I would highly recommend this dealership to everyone.From the woman who answered to the phone to Lily our finance person. It was an exceptional experience.

I purchased a 2011 Pilot, my third new car from this dealer and my second new car from salesperson, Erich Tam. Erich is terrific to work with. He is respectable to both women and men, flexible in negotiating, and works his hardest to find you the car that is best for you. Erich and DCH Academy actually make a new car purchase a great experience. I highly recommend them.

During my 2+ month car search for Honda or Nissan, I was cheated by New Jersey Hillside Dealer (Route 22 Honda) and New York Jamaica Nemet Motor Dealer twice. They played the same dirty tricks -- hoaxed me with a good deal at a competitative price, asked me to go there, signed the contract, checked my credit, requested me to buy the insurance, and, then required me to buy certain options and pay surcharges, from $1299 to $2000. When I refused, I wasted 8 hours at Nemet or 3 hours at Route 22 already. So, I had to leave with empty-hand.I hated these two and most dealers and I swear I would never deal with any dealers to negeotiate price and terms on-site. I'll do everythign through emails and I only to go there, pay and pick up the car.You Freehold Honda dealer (in New Jersy) does not belong to the very best dealers who are willing to offer me transparent price. DCH Honda gave me a clean list of price, including sales tax and title, and the final out-the-door price; and they promised me that is the final price I need to pay, 100% sure without any hidden price or options. After DCH's emails, a few other NY and NJ dealers followed the suits and sent me their transparent price list, too. Some are better priced, two hundreds ($200) lower than DCH's price. But I choose DCH firmly because I valued their honest service and appreciated their being the first to offer me a whole clean list of price via emails. I would not jump ship unless any other quote is at least $500 lower than DCH (in that case, DCH is overpriced). Actually, none of the other quoted list is more than $300 lower than DCH. So, I told DCH I would go there on Sat (last Sat), pay and pick up the car. I already told me the color I want in advance. DCH got the car ready there, did an express buy procedure for me, and the overall process took me only 2 hours and 8 minutes in DCH office to drive the new car away. I am thrilled at DCH's perfect service. Going forward, I'll most likely stick to DCH for all my life time car request, unless their price is out of the normal range.I went to dealerrater.com to give DCH the highest rating and I will tell me friends and my 19,000 members in my organization that DCH is the honest and best choice, while Route 22 Hillside Honda and NYC Nemet Motor are the most evil dealers to play dirty tricks with customers.

I was in the market for a 2011 Honda Pilot and checked Overstock.com as well as DCH Academy Honda. DCH Academy Honda beat the Overstock.com dealer prices by $1,000. The first price was the best/last/only price. Mark Kamatoy was a very friendly and knowledgeable salesman. I would highly recommend this dealer. Do yourself a favor and go to whatever dealer you choose AFTER you have done some research. A well informed buyer is a key to a pleasant sale.

I bought my 2008 Accord from this DCH Honda back in 2007 over the internet/phone. I dealt with Mark & John (don't remember last names). They gave us a deal that we couldn't refuse. Since we owned a 2005 Odyssey, we began getting it serviced there as well. Had a few issues with the 2008 Accord, but Rick has always been a stand up guy to take care of it. Recently, I was in an accident, whereby...long story short, the engine ceased. Called Rick, had the car towed to him, insurance guy came the same day...Liberty Mutual, what a company (Five Stars) inspected & submitted to have the engine replaced. The car was fixed in 5 days....5 days, wow. My neighbor had a minor fender bender & his dealer took over 9 days to fix the rear bumper & trunk. I've recommended DCH to everyone. I've even written letter to the headquarters congratulating them for hiring such wonderful staff. Oh, another thing. I was recently in for an oil change & asked if I have the tires balanced & rotated, and what do you know...Christine (I'm sure I have the wrong name...but she was oriental) accomodated me without a hesitation. After all was done, she said Mr. Sanan, we did an oil change, balanced & rotated the tires, and oh yeah...one of the tires had a nail. We took it out and fixed the flat. I asked whats the charge....no charge for the flat. Thanks for your business Mr. Sanan. Wooooooo....can you get better service than that. NO WAY. I love this dealership. Thank you DCH Honda in Old Bridge, NJ.

I had a great experience at this dealership. I first put in a request for a quote on a brand new 2010 Honda Civic Lx and the quote that I got back from Mark was one of the lowest that I had gotten compared to others that I received. I got a lower quote from one other dealer and the matched it without any questions. When I went in to see Mark, he introduced me to Nitin who took me through the rest of the process. We did the test drive and he explained all the features of the car. Then they tried to get me the best deal possible with the banks and so on and even called my insurance company to add the new vehicle. He helped me a great deal considering this was my first experience purchasing a vehicle. He was very friendly and attentive and did what was best for me as the customer. I loved the experience compared to what I got at another Honda dealership, they are wonderful. I would recommend anyone looking to purchase a vehicle, new or used, to visit this dealership. Trust me you won't be disappointed.

I traded in my old car and wanted to buy a new one. Jotge was very helpful and friendly and wasnt pushing us to make a decision. WE got a very good trade in price and a great deal on a new 2010 Civic. I absolutely love my new car and it was definately a great fit for me. Jorge was the best sales rep that we have ever dealt with. He was very trust worthy and helpful, we highly recoment him and as a family have decided that every honda we buy, we will only buy from him and this dealership.

From start to finish I had a great car buying experience. I wasn't in an urgent need to buy a car and I was shopping for the best price and best car buying experience. Compared to other dealerships I found that people at DCH Academy are very friendly and transparent. They gave me very competitive price quote right from the get go. They laid out all the fees and taxes upfront and there were no hidden surprises towards the end. Even better there sales and finance team came up with a creative solution to lure me into buying the car at a price point that was significantly lower than the initial quote. They understood my needs very well and worked with me very diligently. I recommend DCH Academy to anyone looking to buy a car. Nitin is a great salesman with a very professional attitude and with a great follow through the entire car buying process.

This was my first visit to this dealership. I originally went with the intent to purchase a used car, but no used car on the lot struck my fancy. I took a walk next door over to the new car dealership and met with Erich Tam. Erich was a wonderful person to deal with. He took his time in explaining to me the differences between the different Accord types and then took me on a test drive. After I chose the car that I wanted, we were able to agree on a very reasonable price. I am very satisfied with the Honda that I purchased as well as the price that I paid for it. I am also very glad that I took my time to research this dealership on this website before going there. All the positive things written about them here are accurate. I highly recommend DCH Academy Honda to everyone. Keep up the great work!

Generally an easy car buying experience: I was given a direct out-the-door quote by Mark ("Can you beat this price?" / "Yes, here's our total out the door price" / DONE! I really like that) and placed an order for the car the same day. Unfortunately it was not in stock and took 2 weeks to arrive. Khalil sat down with me and explained every step of the closing process; both Mark and Khalil were helpful, accommodating, and friendly throughout the process.Things were a bit different when sitting down with the F&I manager. I wanted to pay cash for the car and he kept insisting that I finance it instead. He quoted me one interest rate which miraculously transformed into a higher interest rate on paper and refused to even acknowledge the existence of a promotional rate which I had printed from Honda's website and brought with me. That experience felt extremely rushed ("sign sign sign, why are you reading it? Just sign") and nearly killed the deal at one point.Nevertheless, my car buying experience at DCH Academy Honda was generally positive.

I had a positive sales experience with both Ruben Arcila (Sales Manager) and Khalil Quraishi (Salesperson) for my new 2010 Honda Odyssey. This included pre-sale, sale, and post sale contact. The dealership is fair, customer service oriented, and focused on building long term customer relations that will create a natural system for future sales and referrals. For a pleasant, non rushed, car buying experience where it seems they really do want the customer to be happy and feel good about the sale, I recommend both this dealership and the people that I worked with.

One of the best dealerships that I've went to. Bought a few new honda's before and never have I had even close to the quality of customer service that this dealership provides. Mark from the get go was always patient and able to answer all my questions. Mark greeted me the same each time I delt with him from being interested in a Honda Fit awhile back to being interested in a Honda Accord and buying one. Once Mark and I agreed to what I wanted it was over and done with, he was able to locate the new car for me in 2-3 days and I just had to go pick it up. I didn't even leave my house and I pretty much bought a car all I needed to do is go there and sign. Once at the dealership, Mark set me up with Nitin and he was a pleasure also. He was very attentitive and explained all the details of the car to me and all it's functions. He even called my insurance company for me and waited on hold to correct a potential problem with the name on my card. Smoothest transaction ever for a new car. So if you want no gimmicks, upfront pricing and the best customer service go to DCH Academy. Also, I wanted to mention that I've traveled about 40 miles from NY to get to this dealership and got lost a few times, but I wouldn't mind doing it again to get another car in the future or to pick up my new plates in a few days.I've only heard good thing about your dealership before this so thank you DCH Academy for making me a believer that not all car dealers are created equal and that you guys are one of the best!

We had a great experience at this place. The condition of the used cars were better here as compared to other places we visited. Also the Eddys follow-up, diligence and politeness were helpful in helping us make the right decision. We are very happy with our dealings with DCH Academy Honda and would suggest it a friend too, especially if you are going there for a used car ask for Eddy as your salesperson he is the best!

Eddy was our salesmen. He was AMAZING!!! He helped us find a truck that was perfect for us. My truck broke down which was completely unexpected and I needed a new truck fast due to the fact that I am a Hospital Employee. We went in late on a Friday night and by Saturday morning we had a new truck! I was surprised that he was willing to stay late with us to get everything worked out so quickly expecially on a Friday night too. My partner and I were not prepaired for having to get a new truck so last minute. We didnt have much money saved up due to the fact that our world had been turned upside down a few months prior from our house burning down to the ground. Eddy was able to help us with a low and affordable down payment. He was very compassionate and understanding of our situation. He was very friendly and had a smile on his face the entire time. He was so helpful. We are so greatful to have gotten Eddy as our salemen. We would deffinatly recomend him for any one of our friends or family to go see him. The truck we got is absolutly perfect. I never imagined myself driving a Mercury Mountianeer, let alone a luxary edition. And Eddy made that possible. THANK YOU TO EDDY, HE REALLY HELPED US OUT IN A HARD TIME. I am very happy with my new truck and I wouldnt trade it for anything else. EDDY IS #1 !!!! He should get a raise!!!!Danielle & Lauren

The service was very friendly and helpful. Our buy was a last minute buy due to my partners truck breaking down. Eddy did everything he could to help us get a new truck for her fast not to mention affordable. He stayed late on a friday night to help us get everything settled and set up. By saturday morning we had a new beautiful truck. She looks so happy driving it. Thanks to Eddy for all his help in our time of need. He was the best sales person we had came in contact with. He was kind and compassionate as well as very helpful. He got everything done so quickly that when we walked out we said to our selves "did we just buy a new truck?" When we came back on Sat morning he had the truck washed and cleaned and sitting right out front all ready for us. Our experience was amazing and perfect!! Couldnt have asked for a better salesperson.

I had a very good experience with her today.I felt like I'm in safe hands. Service guy (forgot to ask his name) who spoke to me was also very good and explained the problem very clearly. Sales Manager - Ruben, Sales Person - Khalil and Service Manager - Amy are really kind enough to address the issues.Thanks,Ganesh

This was one of the best car buying experiences I have had in many years. They spent all the time we needed to test drive the car that we wanted. They did not have the color and promissed that they would have it at the end of the week (which they did). The car was presented immaculately clean and the price was exactly what we expected to pay for the car...no hidden costs or issues. If you are looking to purchase a Honda with no hassels, no pressure and priced the way you want it... this is the place to go.

John Wilson.. I will never forget this person. Man, was he arrogant.. I walked into the dealership looking to buy a used Honda Civic Coupe and there were 3 available. Any sensible person would take the car out for a test drive and then make a decision.This person was not reluctant to go for a drive and even during the test drive his attitude was too rude. Buyer has the right to check acceleration. On a freeway with 65mph if you do not accelerate while merging where else would you. John was not courteous to explain the options in the car. He just wanted to push it out of the door and earn one of those fancy medals he has collected in his office.Just as I returned from test drive, I am discussing if the costing is right and he gives an offer stating "Take it or Leave it, I got other buyers". I'm sorry to say but the car was not sold 2 weeks after this incident. I did not like the dealership. It was my mistake going to John. May be Vipin Rishi is a better person. I visited DCH Achademy Honda just bcoz my friend suggested and such bad service killed it all.In such tough market, i doubt if this attitude can survive.I bought a Honda Civic Coupe EX from DCH Kay Honda in Eatontown. Amazing service.

Not only he explained me as a professional Sales Representative but also took that extra step as a true friend in explaining the details of the vehicle. Lauren in Internet Sales department was also very professional and courteous. Hussain in Finance department made things crystal clear for me to understand the different finance option available.Wish DCH Honda all the luckThanks & LuckSahil Desai

It has been a good experience to us and I will recommend this dealership to any one who needs to buy a Honda vehicle.

I accompanied my son when he purchased his Honda Accord as a co-signor. Eddie was very organized, explained all the paperwork and made sure we were comfortable with the process. I had a number of questions concerning the purchase and Eddie answered everything. He worked extremely hard with your finance manager to obtain the best interest rate on my son's auto loan. I was very impressed with how seamless the process was.Eddie made me feel very comfortable from the minute we walked in. He's very pleasant, easy to talk to and very knowledgeable on your products. What an asset to your company. I told Eddie when I need another car or know someone looking I'll definitely see him. I'd also like to express how easy it was to deal with your finance manager. He took the extra effort in finding a lower rate for my son's loan and took the time to explain the additional plans so we could make a good decision. It was an overall great experience.

I only went into this dealer today to look and possibly test drive a 2011 Honda Pilot not to buy, which I attempted to do last week at OPENROAD HONDA in Edison, NJ which is only 3 miles from my house but I was so discourage and disappointed of their treatment. I actually left that day with little to no interest of purchasing the car which I really wanted. Today, I went to a couple of different dealers before landing at DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge. From the minute that I walked in I was pleasantly treated and asked my desire, within 2 minutes a sales person Andy Lau came to greet me, this gentleman was extremely pleasant, well mannered and had a great personality. Long story short, I ended up getting the 2011 PILOT, which I am ecstatic about a month earlier due to GREAT SERVICE, VERY REASONABLE PRICING and last but not least a phenomenal staff all around. Hussain Chaudhary their Business Manager was a extreme pleasure to deal with. If asked how I felt at DCH Academy Honda, my response would be AT HOME. I can only hope you have an exceptional experience as I did!Donald Luna, Edison NJ

Sanjay made this transaction a completely pleasant experience. Thank you, thank you! I left the house in the morning steeling myself for visits to various dealers in search of a used Civic for my son. DCH Academy was our second stop, and our LAST stop! My son and I thoroughly enjoyed meeting Sanjay and, ultimately, purchasing the Civic I saw on the internet (yay, you really did have that car, several other places we went to a few days earlier did not have the cars they had listed). We will make DCH Academy our FIRST stop when we are next in the market for a car. And, hopefully, we'll be able to work with Sanjay again. Thanks again for a great customer experience!!

I recently purchased a Pilot at DCH Academy Honda and had an outstanding experience. Throw out the past unpleasant experiences you most likely had with other dealerships which I will not go into details here. It quickly became obvious that I was dealing with another breed. The place is well managed, well run and an efficient operation. Its truly amazing. Harshad Panchal (HP) was the Salesperson I dealt with. I elected to go the internet route and the communication; both email and phone calls went very well. There was no nonsense at all. Once we had a deal we scheduled a date and time and thats when I stepped into the dealership for the first time. The specific SUV, which hardly anyone had on their lot was parked right out by the front door when I arrived. I met HP and was handed over to the Sales Consultant. He handled EVERYTHING until I went to the finance department. Cody Martin is his name and he did an astonishing, extraordinary, tremendous, remarkable job. You select the word. The whole process of the paper work, test drive, getting the loan approval, having the vehicle washed, the brief demo on familiarizing us with the SUV and all this while keeping the time spent in mind which he kept to a minimum. Cody is a young guy thats mature well beyond his years. He is bright, positive and very professional along with a great attitude. Make sure to request his services as you will not be disappointed. The final part was the financing and extended warranty. That went well too. Tian Reed explained everything and moved along at a quick pace too. Never did I receive any pressure at any point of the whole process to purchase anything more than I wanted and needed in any aspect. Not that it would have affected my decision-making process but its still nice not to have to decline countless offers and counteroffers. I took advantage of a promotion on the financing at the time and they did not try to use it to their advantage to sell me up on anything. This dealership is honest, does not apply any pressure, no hidden fees, is very straight-forward and is very professional. It almost sounds too good to be true but it is not. I plan on going straight back to them the next time I buy another Honda and would recommend them to anyone. In fact, I went back one month later to pick up my plates and have the remote starter installed and received the same service. I again dealt with Cody and the experience after the sale was no different than before it. I like the concept of dealing with one person who talkes ownership and handles everything instead of everyone getting involved.

For the past couple of months, I have been researching car prices. I emailed to Mark and mentioned to him that another dealer had offered me a better price. He then told me that he would be able to match the price. During the weekend, I went to the dealership to go for a test drive and to decide whether or not I wanted the car. The dealership was extremely busy and packed. I soon found Mark who told me he had matched the other price and Abbey would give me a reasonable trade-in price for my old car, so I accepted the deal. At this point, I was quite happy; however, this soon ran out as the waiting time for the test drive was endless. By the time we finished all the paperwork and were ready to drive away with our new car, the dealership had realized that my auto insurance company had already closed and that they would be unable to switch my insurance over to the new car. They asked me to leave my new car in their lot and to return two days later to pick it up. As I have already signed all the paperwork, I told them if I could not drive the new car home that day, I would have to cancel the deal. The dealership finally issued me a temporary insurance permit. I guess the profit margin would have been higher if I had agreed to leave the car there over the weekend so they would not have to spend any extra money. Another aspect I came to realize was that the new car did not come with a full tank of gas (less than 3q) as printed on the new car sticker. Thus, my overall experience with this Honda dealership has been decent and all the employees were friendly, there is much space to be improved in their services.

Hi ! I will strongly recommend DCH Academy HondaThe good culture of the organization reflects in the behavior and outcome of its employees positively. As the employees are the assets of an organization, this will take the organization to its new heights of success.I would like to share a wonderful experience with DCH Academy Honda. Before that I would like to share past experience with other dealership so that you will get a better idea of GOOD & BAD I was planning to buy a new car from couple of months and I have visited around 9 to 10 dealership showrooms but my experience was not good, as some where people were good but price was not , some where price were good but service was not & some where nothing was good . I have shared that worst experience with you all on 1/4/2010 7:42:28 AM with Route 22 Honda (please check detailed reviews on 1/4/2010) & taken around 12 online quotes.First time I visited DCH Academy on December 31 st 2009 and met Lauren Muglia she was very fair, decent, courteous, friendly & straight forward, I liked that but at that time due to unavailability of vehicle I could not buy from DCH Academy. Now when I decided to buy, the first thing came to my mind was Lauren I contacted her she sent me quote and it was bit high. Then I visited them and Lauren Directed me to Abbey Samejo even she was very fair, decent, courteous, friendly & straight forward. She convinced me to buy Honda Accord LXP and once the deal was finalized Abbey directed me to Hussain Chaudhary (Business Manager) he was also very helpful and gave me fair advice.I would request people reading reviews should also post there experiences on this site so that others can take the advantage. Dealers should take the reviews positively it will help them to improve there services & attitude.

As a Canadian resident, I have been searching for many months for a Lexus RX350, year 2008 complete with navigation. After all the time spent looking for the perfect car, I came across DCH Academy Honda. This dealership was more than accommodating to me, seeing as though I do not even reside in the same country. All of the terms, price, and paperwork was throughly addressed through the phone and made me feel at ease with the long distance contact. Once I arrived to the dealership to pick up the car, I couldn't have asked for a better experience dealing with Timothy Crowley. He had everything ready for me (all necessary paperwork, ownership, carfax, etc.) and treated me as if we had known each other for years! We even shared a few laughs and had coffee together!I am soincredibly happy with my purchase, and will definitely be recommending Timothy Crowley, and DCH Academy Honda to all of my friends and family. Thank your so much for your kindness and hospitality.

After reading numerous reviews and visiting several dealerships in the central NJ area, my wife and I settled on DCH Academy Honda. Their price was great and, from start to finish, the entire buying experience was smooth & trouble-free.I first communicated with Harshad (HP) via phone & e-mail to settle on the exact model and price. Once that was finalized, I worked in-person with Robert to complete the sale & necessary paperwork. It was wonderful to see that the final price was exactly (to the penny) as quoted over e-mail/phone -- no hidden fees. The entire in-person process hardly took a couple hours, unlike other dealerships where I had to stand for over an hour JUST to get the proper attention from a salesperson who was trying to juggle several customers at once.The icing on the DCH cake is that throughout the entire process, the DCH folks were always very courteous, patient, eager to help and prompt in responding to calls & e-mails.Needless to say, price + quality + selection + service = a winning combo for DCH.Thanks again to Robert, HP and the rest of the DCH team.

My experience at DCH Academy Honda was excellent. Vipin Rishi made me feel very comfortable and confident that I was making the right decision. He is the most honest salesman I have come across. I did not feel like he was just trying to sell a car, he genuinely wanted me to be happy. I would recommend DCH Academy Honda to anyone.

The sales consultant Erich Tam is excellent. The most important thing is his honesty. He explains things objectively and help us better understand why the deal is the best deal. The price is honest, the fees are honest and simple, no hidden fees driving you crazy. Mr. Tam is very patient, unlike many other sales consultants rather pushy, he gave us lots of information for us to consider and choose by ourselves. He is very considerate by helping us find a better deal against car theft. That's really a great deal. In brief, we finally decided to purchase the Honda Civic LX. Many customers are very happy and excited when you buy a new car at the dealership. But after they get back home, they may find out or realize where they were cheated. We had similar experience with our previous toyota van. But with this new car of Honda Civic, we still feel this is the best deal we can get. thank you Mr. Tam. Mr. Gao

Had a great experience. The dealership had a large selection of certified used Honda's at reasonable prices. Ed was very friendly, knowledgeable, helpful, and I didn't feel pressured or hurried. He made the whole process of buying a car very easy, and was a pleasure to deal with. Everyone else was also great helping with getting the sale paperwork finalized. They really made me feel good about my purchse. I had a great experience and would recomend this dealership to friends and family.Sean Flaherty

Before going to DCH Acadamy Honda atOldBridge, we went to Open Road HondaatEdison which was like a fish market. We literally wasted 3 hours just for a test drive at OpenRoad. The sales people at Open Road Honda were very un-professional and were pressuring me to buy a car with out even test driving. They didnot have the color I wanted and were trying to sell me a different colour. They feel test driving is not really required and is waste of time before buying the car. Funny thing is I had an appointment with them for the test drive. Each sales person was trying to deal with 4-5 customers at the same time and of course the customer service would suck when dealing with so many customers at the same time. We literally stood waiting for the sales person for about an hour.Later that day, we went to DCH Acadamy Honda at Old Bridge and we received an excellent service. Sales rep Jorge Maldanado was great and I would highly recommend him. He was very professional and honest. Even though it was snowing and cold outside that day, he actually showed me any car/color/model I wanted. He answered every question upfront with great deal of patience. It was almost 10:30 PM when my paper work was completed, he actually waited all this time, even though his job ends at 9 PM. The purchase was very smooth with no extra/hidden fees. After the purchase, he followed up to make sure, I was not having any problems with the car.I would definitely buy by next car from Jorge MaldanadoatDCH Acadamy Honda(OldBridge).

They had the Fit sport in the color i wanted. I called up to reserve the car with a small refundable credit card deposit. They had the car prepped in flawless condition when I arrived. No games on the price, no hidden extras. Everything as smooth as silk. Highly recommended.

I have to start off that I apologize to the great staff of DCH Honda of Old Bridge, NJ for being a little late leaving this review, almost three MONTHS late, trust me when I say that they deserve better. They think you deserve better as well. That's the reason why they go to such great lengths to make sure that not only do you purchase the car that's right for you (even if they have to let you walk away without purchasing it from them if you feel that the car isn't the one for you), but the entire staff is just about as professional and friendly as you could dream of. Brian Colyer is from the internet sales dept. I had sent out for quotes from multiple dealers from a website, and he is the person that got me into the DCH Honda of Old Bridge, NJ sales room after a couple of days of negotiations between a large number of local dealers on my part. His willingness to better offers that I had received from other dealers, as well as his complete professionalism and his treating me like a person who is to be respected as opposed to someone who is just a means to their quotas, all without having any hint of negative or un-trustworthiness in his voice, while at the same time not being too casual so as to make you wonder if they will continue to live up to the expectations once you walk in the door, is the reason that we gave this dealership the number one opportunity to complete a new car sale with us. Andy Lau was our car salesman and I can't explain in enough detail how comfortable he made my wife and me during the process. We talked to him for hours throughout the process, him explaining all of the details about the car, cars in general (helpful hints) and life in general. It helped that we went on a day when there was a snowstorm and we weren't preventing him from moving on to other sales opportunities, but I have the sense that he would have spent the same amount of time with us regardless.Reuben was the actual sales manager (not just a puppet or another sales rep. like some car dealers that try to play games would pull off) that my wife wanted to speak to in an attempt to squeak out more for us during the process. She threw things at him pretty heavily in order to try to get a few more perks for us, and to his benefit, while he couldn't add anything else to the deal (more on this later), he handled her pressure with respect, compassion, and honesty and in return I respected how he handled his business and clients as he simply stated that he was at the ultimate best deal that he could do and just couldn't go any further in what he could offer us. To prove this, I actually called a couple of other dealers while we were at the venue and laid out on the line what the deal was that was being offered to us and not a single one even gave us a line of "sure we can beat that, come on in and let's see what we can do", the others either knew that they couldn't even beat that deal or they thought that we were lying because it would have been so simple for them to even ATTEMPT to get us under their roof, and they didn't even try. Last but not least, Hussein from financing made that process as easy as it could have been as well. When there were options that I declined, he would simply state what the advantages could be of having those options, and when I would re-enforce my decision to decline, he would move on to the next item without making me feel like I was making a mistake to try and pressure me into anything which other auto finance departments consistently do.So all in all, there isn't a single bad thing that I can say about this dealer. Every step of the way, you will feel as if it is the perfect car buying experience, and flat out, it will be.Thank you to the entire staff at DCH Honda of Old Bridge, NJ, you have our utmost respect.

Excellent customer service! Timothy Crowley and Joe Scardigno went above and beyond. I highly recommend these two. Very professional, honest, and overall really nice people! The transaction was smooth and I was in and out very quickly. They went above and beyond what they had to do. I will definitely be buying from here again in the future.

After visiting several dealers in the area for a used car for our kid, we found the right deal at Honda. The sales rep, Vipin Rishi, made us feel comfortable, was personable, knowledgeable, and most importantly not pushy or aggresive. He presented everything up front and worked with us to ensure we were happy. This is the second car we have purchased from this Honda dealership and the service is a big reason why we will continue to patronize this dealer.Ralph and Nancy ~ East Brunswick.

It was a pleasure on our new car purchase with this dealer. Many thanks especially to the salesman, Mr. Erich Tam, who helped a lot and provided very useful information about the model. His professionalism is very much appreciated. He made us feel welcome and comfortable during the entire purchase. Everything was trouble free, from test driving to insurance transfer and registration, Mr. Tam offered a great help and made our purchases extremely smooth. All paper work w done in a very fast way. This dealer is very effective and we highly recommend it.

My Sales experience At DCH ACADEMY HONDA was second to none. I can't say enough about my sales person Samy Lucas, and manager Adrian. I was able to purchase the right car for the right price, in the right way. PATIENCE, KINDNESS, AND UNDERSTANDING ARE JUST A FEW WORDS I CAN THINK OF WHEN I REFLECT ON MY EXPERIENCE. From the moment i got to the dealership every question i asked was answered in a professional manner with patience by Samy. Even when we began to talk price (when most of the kindness goes out the door). Samy remained professional by that i mean that he was truly a sales CONSULTANT. Interested in making a living for his family yet, TRULY interested in the customers purchasing decision. He answered every question with a sincere motive of trying to help the customer and by providing options with kindness. Whenever a problem came up he solved it "he never gave up". Samy has outstanding understanding skills all you could look for a in a sales professional. Adrian was never pushy and did everything in his power to accommodate with a great attitude. In conclusion i would definitely recommend visiting samy and adrian for you next vehicle purchase. Such and important and worrisome decision was taken care of with patience, kindness, and understanding. When a customer is making the second most expensive purchase in their lifetime they are very nervous...and to know right from the very first question you are dealing with "TRUE" sales consultants puts your heart and mind at ease throughout the entire sales process making it comfortable a sales process which normally it is not. Samy lucas and Adrian are rare individuals in the car business.....FROM THE TEST DRIVE TO THE DRIVE WAY TRUE PROFESSIONALS.

Bought my car at DCH Academy Honda after recommendation from a friend who also purchased cars from DCH Academy Honda. My friend also recommended that I see Ed Moy for my purchase. I saw Ed and he made the search and buying process easy and painless. Ed is professional, honest, knowledgeable and found me the car I wanted. SEE Ed Moy if you are looking for a car.

From my first call (I forget the person's name that e-mailed me) to leaving with the car, it was a wonderful and pain free experience. Michael was professional. He was not agressive (I would have left if he were). I told him I was between a Toyota and a Honda. He never said anything negative about the Toyota. He brought a new one around and simply said, "I like the Civic and this is why, but you should drive it and see for yourself". He followed me home with the new car, which was a huge help. His biggest asset (and this all applies for your finance manager as well who was fantastic) is that he knew how to read his client. If he denegrated the Toyota, I would have walked out. If he was pushy, I would have walked out. He was simply GREAT!

Shopped extensively for an Accord Coupe EX-L w/Navigation. There were only 4 to be found within a 50 mile radius of our home. DCH Academy Honda had 2 of them. The internet price was very good, but they went further and matched our best deal. No haggling. Lauren Muglia put me in touch with Mark and the deal was done. Later that night, we were introduced to our salesman, Erich Tam who spent quite a bit bit of time explaining the car to me and my wife. He was extremely knowledgeable and thorough. When it came time to discuss the additional warranties, dealer options, etc., there was no pressure. Picked up the car the next day and Erich, again, was very helpful. Everyone at the dealership was friendly and pleasant. The entire experience was very satisfying. We got the car we wanted for the price we wanted to pay, and we were dealt with honestly. We left the dealership knowing that we were dealt with in a forthright manner and weren't second guessing ourselves.

I just purchased my second car from DCH Academy Honda. This was my first time dealing with the used car sales department and it was a very pleasant. My experience started by requesting a quote from their website, which was advertising internet specials. I received a friendly call the next business day from Edward Moy. I met Edward later that day, where he answered all my questions about the car and comparison cars. We arrived at a great price. Edward explained everything about buying a Honda certified car and I particularly liked the 7 year/100,000 powertrain warranty, which is actually longer than the warranties offered on the new cars. Edward offered great customer service to me and my wife. He did the etching on the windows and had the mechanics correct a tire pressure which showed up on the car's dash monitor. I would recommend Edward if you are in the market for a used car.

I have been driving Hondas since 1995 and right now we have three Hondas in my family. On January 15, 2010 I stopped in at DCH Academy Honda simply for price compareson. I was greeted by this young sales person Abbey Samejo who showed professionalism and passion for her work. I didnt feel she was just trying to sell me a car but was honest and cared about my needs. She was well informed and was able to give me various options for me to consider. She was pleasant and knowledgeable of the cars she was selling. I have been in sales for 24 years and I was very much impressed with her sales techniques. I had gone to this dealer simply to compare prices, but after I had Ms Samejo help me I knew I was going to return before I make my final decision. After few days of my first visit I went back to DCH Academy Honda and Ms Samejo was able not only to sell me one car but two cars one for me and one for my daughter. The person that handled my finances, Tian was also very helpful and knowledgeable. He explained thoroughly all the steps of financing. Tian was courteous, helpful and very well informed. I have to say that my overall experience with this dealership was great and I would not hesitate to recommend family and friends

As a nervous first time car buyer I have to say this was a very positive experience. Nitin took the time to explain everything in full detail, and addressed all my questions and concerns. I have been to other dealerships and wasn't too pleased with the aggressive sales staff. On the other hand, Nitin went through all the options and suggested things that I would suit me best and things that wouldn't. The price was just right for my budget. I am very happy and look forward to doing business there again. I will recommend DCH to all my friends and family. Thanks for the great experience and deal!

Like most people, I was initially wary about having to set foot again in a car dealership, but extenuating circumstances made it necessary to buy another car. (My last experience with a certain Allston, MA Honda dealership left a very bad taste in my mouth - high-pressure sales tactics, no floor mats, and a DIRTY CAR on delivery).I am very pleased to say, I had an **excellent experience** at DCH Academy Honda. Highlights of my experience:- Lauren Muglia, DCH Academy's Internet sales agent, was prompt, courteous, and helpful. She gave a line-item cost breakdown in her first email reply (which I've never seen happen at any other dealership), and the price was very competitive. She even checked the VIN numbers of their in-stock vehicles to see if they had any units built in Japan (no luck, but at least she tried).- Andy Lau, my sales representative, was informative, upfront, and patient. It was absolutely frigid during the day of my test drive, but he was very understanding- even as I wanted to try a second car (with navigation). He pulled no punches; without hassle, he removed the optional window etch, and threw in wheel locks as well.- Excellent price, as promised! The F&I manager did try to upsell a Honda extended warranty (great product, but too expensive), but he redeemed himself by giving me plenty of time to scrutinize the contract without interruption.I would definitely recommend this dealership. Now I see why the are repeat winners of Honda President's Award & JD Power awards!Final tip1. Not the dealership's fault, but Google maps told me to take one jughandle too soon (try typing new brunswick nj 08901 -> 1101 US Highway 9 North, old bridge nj 08857) - maybe this can be fixed?

The salesman Edward Moy and the DCH Academy Honda staff was very informative and accommodating. Edward Moy had a great personality that pursued my best interests at all costs. He strived to present the necessary information including a Carfax report, mechanical work done to the car, and all the perks of buying a Certified Pre-Owned Honda. The staff was rather friendly, while remaining straight forward at the same time. I arrived at DCH Academy Honda after a refferal from a relative. Upon my arrival, Edward Moy worked diligently to obtain the car I desired, while staying within my unyielding budget. Lastly, I would reccommend DCH Academy Honda to everyone based on the effort put forth by Edward Moy, the large selection of cars, and a comfortable environment that other dealers were unable to achieve.

Edward Moy, the salesman I bought my first from, did his best to move mountains and put me in a new car by the end of the night. Lucky for me he's a great salesman and was successful in doing so. Great dealership.

I was in the market for an Accord lease and visited or contacted 10 dealerships. I explained to each dealer how I wanted the deal structured and how much I was willing to pay. It's amazing how you can receive such different quotes on the same car (considering they all pay the same dealer invoice price). In the end, there were about 3 dealerships that were in the ballpark of what I wanted to pay. The decision therefore came down to customer service and Marcia, Lauren and Tian were exceptional. It started with Lauren in the internet department. Her initial quotes were consistent with the lowest offers I had gotten so immediately I was comfortable that this was an honest dealership. Once in the dealership, Marcia took the lead and in less than an hour (after a test drive in the freezing cold)we had a deal. There was no B.S. and back and forth to the sales manager. She took the number we discussed to her manager and got the deal done. I was scheduled to pick the car up the wednesday after x-mas (during the busiest week of the year). I stopped in unannounced on the Tuesday before to see the actual car I would be leasing (it was snowed-in another lot the day I went for a test drive). Since I was there already, Marcia had me meet with Tian (finance manager) to fill the paperwork out so all I had to do on Wednesday was pick the car up. It took less than 45 minutes start to finish. I picked the car up the next day in pristine condition. Thanks to everyone for a great experience. I'll be back in 3 years to lease my next car.

He made our experience to DCH a delight! After working with other dealerships and leaving with feeling nothing but aggravation and frustration, This was a wonderful change! We would definitely recommend this dealership to anyone! Thank you Lauren and Paul!

Price, honesty, integrity in business dealings, and outstanding customer satisfcation are the factors I used to determine whether to buy/lease the two vehicles. Eaqch of the individuals named above separately and together provided me with outstandng client service. Prior to visiting the dealership, I spoke to Lauren several times on the phone. I decided to come into the dealrship because of how Lauren managed the relationship prior to my visit. From the time I entered the dealership, each of the people named above gave me outstanding service, and Jorge closed the deals even though he was not my assigned sales person. Eah of the named individuals should be ranked with the highest rankings, and receive the highest benefits.

We were impressed with Jorge Maldonados can do spirit from the moment we met him, and it was really a pleasure to buy a car from him. He readily accompanied us on test drives of several different Honda models and exhibited a superior level of knowledge about each one. After discussing the pros and cons of each model with Jorge, we zeroed in on the car we wanted, and we were then able to agree on a fair price in a pleasant and friendly way. We would not hesitate to recommend Jorge Maldonado and the entire DCH Academy Honda team (sales, sales management, financial, etc.) to anyone who is looking for a great car buying experience.

This is the 4th car I've bought from DCH, and my second from DHC Acadamy Honda. For each purchase, DCH's initial price quote was SIGNIFICANTLY lower that any other dealer's negotiated price. No hassel...no-nonsense. They quoted me a price over the phone which was lower than any other quote I received and then did even BETTER when I went in to purchase the vehicle. My sales rep Robert Levine was straight forward, pleasant and most importantly honest. He was very easy to deal with and extremely accomodating as was the manager Scott Cersosimo. (I suggest asking to deal with Robert if you are planning to shop there) Thank you DCH for taking the misery out of car shopping and making it enjoyable. EXCELLENT experience each and every time!!! I give DCH Acadamy Honda my highest recomendation.

Email the dealer and within half an hour got a quote from Mark. First quote was below invoice and no negotiation was even needed. Other dealers couldn't even touch this price. A couple emails later and all the numbers were worked out. When I got to the dealer to pick up the car (next day), the car was spotless. Khalil went over everything with me and there were no surprises. All the number match the email correspondence. Additional options were offered but there were NEVER any pressure to purchase anything. From start to finish I was able to pick up the car in less than 48 hours without having to deal with any tricks or headaches. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!

I had been searching on the internet for a good lease quote on a Honda & was amazed at how quickly DCH Academy Honda got in touch with me. I mainly was in contact with Mark who arranged my visit for today 12/16/09. We had e-mailed back & forth for a little over a week & because of my husband's illness, I had to keep changing my date of visit but Mark was unbelievably patient & understanding. THANK YOU MARK!! Nitis took me on my test drive/did a lot of paper work/explained the interior functions of the car etc. all with a cheerful & friendly attitude. THANK YOU NITIS!! Our finance gentlemen was such a cheerful person also & did a great job explaining every detail to me!! THANK YOU also!! I was amazed at the friendly/caring atmosphere at DCH & absolutely LOVE my new car. I highly recommend this Dealership to anyone interested in a Honda. Once again I want to "THANK" everyone at DCH for treating me so special & being so very pleasant!!!MERRY CHRISTMAS & HAPPY NEW YEAR to each of you!!!! Sincerely,Rosemary Bajsert

The salesmen at this branch were extremely helpful and friendly compared to other dealers I visited. Why I gave this rating is because Jorge Maldonado, our salesmen, was one of the best I have ever dealt with. He was patient, friendly, helpful, knowledgable, and willing to work with us. I would go back to him anytime and recommend him to anyone.

In the past, I have visited several Honda dealerships to purchase cars for my company and the experience was largely positive. So, when I chose to purchase a car for myself I decided on a Honda.My shopping experience at DCH Academy Honda was remarkable. Nitin Bassi, the sales consultant was extremely helpful, providing us all the information that we requested and following up with phone calls. He worked with my insurance broker to ensure that all the documents were in place prior to my coming to collect the car. I was absolutely thrilled when he told me that he will have the registration plates delivered and saved me the aggravation of a visit to the motor vehicle department. He even offered to help me drive the car home. What more could I ask?

I purchase a 2010 Honda Civic at your dealership on 12/7. I just want to tell you have a great bunch of people working there! Everything went smooth totally wasn't expecting that.The internet manager Lauren gave me a great price and had it in stock! The salesman Cody was cool very professional. He even drove the car to my house down in Toms River 50 miles away. I also like the manager Rubin he answer all my questions. I highly recommend this dealership to my friends and family!

Ed Moy is the man! The rest of the sales staff (finance guy, etc) was looking for some extra $$$....warranties, etc.... not too painful though. Overall, not bad! Ed Moy is a great salesman to work with. Straight up no hassles. If you tell them you're not interested in something they laid off after 2 attempts.

First I want to thank the employees at DCH Academy Honda Old Bridge for an unforgettable experience. I felt like I got a lesson on cars 101. I have nothing but high ratings because of Sanjays approach in talking to my mother and I. There was no point at all where we felt pressured. There was nothing but the highest level of customer service, salesmanship, product knowledge and overall friendliness from him to us. With working in retail I have not seen many people who have such a firm grasp and hold on what they are promoting and selling. I can only say positive things about my visit to this dealership. My mom and I were on a time constraint; even in that there was no pressure. Sanjay asked if we wanted to test drive the vehicle but we said no. Then he offered to give it a test around the parking lot. Just something something like that made a significant impression on me. It's the little things that I remember. I could go on and on. Adrian was a huge help. I had a quick question about a feature, and as he was on his way out the door he came over to the car explained and answered my question. So, I thought that was great too. George he helped out and stayed with my mom and I as Sanjays shift was over. He answered some questions and even explained things that I didn't know about. So overall there is nothing more to say than this was "MY" best experience in going to a car dealership. I have been to quite a few. I have a decent knowledge on cars but 11/21/09 I learned new stuff. That's what I like about Sanjay. If I had a question he knew the answer. It wasn't me having to probe to get information on the vehicle. He already volunteered the info and all I had to do was listen. Listening is a big part of sales. You want to get your point across but you want to hear the customer too. In this scenario, he passed with flying colors. My mom and I walked on the lot and within minutes Sanjay was there to help. Great salesman. Very pleasant. Clean appearance. Terrific product knowledge. If this review is accepted I hope others will read it and if you are looking for a new/used vehicle... Be sure to stop in at DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge.DCH ACADEMY HONDA OLD BRIDGE. 5 STARS!

My experience at dch honda was an excellent one.Abbey Samejo was very helpful and informative on my honda pilot.Most importantly she was very honest about the vehicle and the price.Their were no tricks or hidden cost involved with the truck at all, what they told me was what was printed on the contract.As someone who has leased and bought many cars this was one of the easiest and most pleasent experiences with a car dealer from the salesperson to management to the finance department.I honestly would recommend this dealer to anyone and i myself plan on doing future business with them.To all at dch honda thank you it was a pleasure......

I wanted to lease a Honda Accord and responded to DCH Academy newspaper ad.Marcia Dietrick greeted me at the door, took the newspaper ad and went to work.She qualified me in a professional, courteous and friendly manner.Answered all my questions, came up with an aggressive offer and sealed the deal in a timely manner.She escorted me through the financial and other document process.Marcia had my Accord detailed and ready for pick-up the same day.She took the time to explain all the features - inside & out - of the vehicle ( even though this is my 4th Honda).Overall, DCH Academy and Marcia earned the highest rating!

If you want No surprises, No pushing or Pressure, DCH is the place to go.Bought a new HONDA CRV 2010 EX 4WD last week.Nittin is the best sales man I met so far. He is very cool,knowledgeable and clearly understood my needs and lived up to the expectation till the end When other dealers were pushing me to get LX model since TRADE in was involved in my Transaction.Got a good deal.Paper work done in less than 5 mins even though I financed through HONDA and got a good rate.Best buying experience compared to all of my previous 3 cars.Over all very pleasant experience.Now I understood why this dealer has very good rating on this web site.

We had been shopping for a month and a half and after test driving them all, we settled on trying to find a 2007 Lexus 350. The problem was, we had champagne taste and beer pockets. Nevertheless, we kept shopping and dealing with all the competative car sales people with their endless phone calls and their Jekyll and Hyde dispositions when you don't purchase a car from them. Through Sams Club Auto Buying program and the internet, we found DCH Academy and our Lexus at a price that was unbelievable!! We called and the price was real (no typo). We drove 2 hrs from Phila to DCH Honda. Our experience with everyone we dealt with was exceptional! From the managers to the detail guys in the back, they all are a very nice group of guys. We are the proud owners of a Lexus and now we have a car dealership to tell our family and friends about if they want great service, a good selection of cars and prices that will knock your socks off. Our salesman, Vipin Rishi, is the best. He helped us program our car with the bluetooth and the navigation system and had our car detailed very nicely. Terry, the finance specialist, found a lower bank rate than our credit union. We are very satisfied customers and we will tell our family, friends and co-workers that the ride up to DCH from our area would be well worth the trip. Looking forward to seeing them again.

I found my 07 tahoe at DCH Academy Honda thru an internet search. they offered prompt e-mail texting. After my initial questions were answered, I phoned the dealer and spoke with Edward Moy. WOW!! He was informative, friendly and more importantly, let me know that he was available to me. He understood that this was an important/expensive purchase. Living 2 hours away from the dealer and unable to see the car before near to closing, he spoke with the manager and they waited! Edward was off that day at 5p and told me, "If you're coming, I'm waiting." He gave me his personal cell number to contact him. While evaluating the vehicle, he gave us time and space and was not pushy or in a hurry-even when it was closing time! He was thorough and organized during the paper transaction. This left us confident that our drive was worth the time and he appreciated that fact.

This is the sixth car I've ever owned and it's my first foreign car as well. I've been suckered most of my car purchasing life into believeing that GM/Chevy(s) were the finest cars rolling off the assembly line. Ever since my wife's new Cavalier blew it's engine block before 75,000 miles I knew that ol' GM quality was gone. I should also indicate that previous GM's I've owned could barely make it past 100,000 miles without some kind of catastrophic breakdown. AND! I do not abuse my automobiles. Those creeps over at GM didn't even try to reach out to me including the place of purchase...the now out of business, DAYTON Chevy.Every honda owner I have spoke with so far swears by 'em. My research confirms Honda owner's satisfaction so it's Honda for me. Marcia didn't need to do any arm twisting at all since she's very confident with the product she promotes and sells. In fact, I even told her a test drive wouldn't even be necessary but I just couldn't resist. Just picked up the car yesterday and I hope it's the beginning of a trustworthy relationship. Visit Marcia at DCH Academy in Old Bridge if you're serious about purchasing a quality vehicle. The place is calm, relaxing, and professionally staffed. And tell her Andy Mango sent you!

We were very pleased with the service we were given and the car we purchased. Although this was a used car the dealership worked very hard to deliver the car in very good condition. It was taken to my mechanic to look over prior to purchase. The mechanic was very impressed with the car and all that was done to service it.

Michael Serra sold me my vehicle. I have never bought a new car before, and this experience was made very simple by him and others at DCH Honda. When I signed, I got the original deal we had discussed a day or two ealier, NO SURPRISES at all. I personally work in a service industry and value customer service, this establishment clearly does as well. ACES.

I would like to thank Mr. Nitin Bassi for all his help, time and effort he has put into the deal I got. Without all his exceptional work, I would never be able to buy a brand new car. He went out an extra mile just to make myself and my family feel proud to drive a brand new Honda Accord. He was always there to answer our questions. Not only this, but he actively listened to our comments and helped us move into the right direction. Buying a car is not an easy step. However, employees like Nitin Bassi, make your experience a wonderful, exceptional and a pleasurable one. My whole family would like to thank Mr. Bassi from the bottom of our hearts for all his hard work to make us feel special driving Honda. He knows exactly what his guests (customers) want.I have seen many other employees who only sell cars for their benefit, but they do not care what their customer wants. Nitin is not one of them. His first priority was to make sure that his customer is satisfied. Even after completing his 12 hour work schedule, he stayed late with us just to give us all the information we wanted and to make sure we were satisfied.

Customer Service is definitely a priority at DCH Academy Honda. I've dealt with other dealers in the past but DCH's service, product knowledge, and price specials were by far the best I've come across to date....and trust me, when it comes to vehicles, I've shopped around. Thanks to the the staff at Academy Honda, I drove out of there with a vehicle perfect for me and perfect for my budget. Thanks again, DCH.

Marcia Dietrick made my new car ( 2009 Honda Accord) buying experience exceptional and pleasurable. We were so much impressed by her dedicated customer service skills. Sales rep was really knowledgeable and professional. She even came to our house to pick us up. I will really recommend Marcia Dietrick as a sales rep. Initially I was kind of worried about buying a new car. Heard lot of bad things about these dealers, but here at DCH everything was smooth. They did match our internet pricing. Their prices are cheaper than any other dealership ( Open road, planet Honda etc etc). Even their finance manager was also helpful. He didnt harass me with any warranties and I walked out without buying any warranty. Everybody in DCH was polite and nice and they really treat you good. If you have to buy a new car, DCH academy is the best and reliable place to go. 5 Star to DCH.

This was a very pleasurable experience. We worked with Michael Serra and he was great! ... Probably, overall, one of the smoothest, most pleasurable (relatively speaking) experiences we have had with purchasing a new car! From the greater at the front desk, to the person in charge of financing ... to, of course, our sales person ... I cannot say enough good things about DCH Academy Honda! They pride themselves on great service ... and they definitely lived up to this!

Great experience with DCH Academy Honda. Absolutely no BS during the whole transaction. I emailed every Honda dealership in NY, NJ, and Northeastern PA and DCH came back to me with the quickest answer and the best price. When I went in, they didn't try to pull anything funny, and I ended up purchasing my Honda Civic Si from DCH and never looked back. I challenge you to try to duplicate that excellent car buying experience at a dealership like Open Road in Edison. It is just not possible.Great car, great price, great service.Lauren Muglia was always available to address my concerns and answer my many questions throughout the car buying process, and Ruben Arcila and the Management team were also able to follow up with great service.If you are looking to buy a Honda, look no further than DCH Academy Honda. You will not regret it.

Marcia Dietrick made buying my 2009 Honda Civic a pleasure. She made my car buying experience a great one along with her attention to detail and professionalism. If you want first class excellent service then when you visit DCH Academy Honda definitely ask for her. What is more impressive was Marcia's follow up call to see if I had any concerns or questions about the car after owning it several days.

The service was amazing. We last purchased a vehicle 2 years ago and the sales rep remembered us by name and what vehicle we purchased. He also remembered details about us, such as our occupations and information about our family. He remembered what kind of vehicle we were looking for because of what we discussed 2 years ago. We were extremely impressed with that. We had one minor disappointment on the vehicle we purchase a few years ago for adding on Diamond Fusion, and he provided us with a surprise complimentary oil change package for our new vehicle. I can sing nothing but praises for this dealership and the representatives that we have come in contact with. We now own two Honda's, the first for both my husband and myself. This dealer has earned life long customers. We will be sure to send everyone we know who is looking for a vehicle to Academy Honda.

We had previously visited Open Road Honda in Edison the same day we purchased the honda civic ex model from DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge. When first visiting Open Road they had played games and not given the best offer possible. Open Road had not listened to the needs that we had and did not know how to follow directions. DCH had great service and listened to what we needed and gave us the best offer an offer that we could not resist.

We came in to purchase a new car the final week of the "cash for clunkers" program. The place was busy but we were given great attention. Jorge was extremely helpful, we were able to test drive a few cars and make a good decision. Jorge was friendly and willing to stay late to finalize our paperwork so that we could leave that day with the car we purchased. He made the usually painful process of negotiating a deal easy and fun, he explained everything in detail and got us a great deal. He even came and greeted us when we came to pick up the registration and title today, remembering us almost 2 weeks later. If you can have anyone help you at DCH Academy Honda, pick Jorge, he'll make your day and make you laugh, and if you get him laughing you won't regret it.

Our experience today at DCH Honda was very good. The salesman we worked with(KQ) was friendly, knowledgeable and straight forward. The negotiation process was relatively painless and we received what we believed to be a very fair price on both the new car (Honda Pilot)and on our trade. Lily the business manager was also very friendly and pleasant to work with. The only issue we had is that the whole process seemed to take a long time (which is why I rated the overall experience a 4 instead of 5). Anything that can be done to streamline the process would be helpful.I had read a lot of positive comments about DCH dealerships on this site and today's experience confirmed to me why.

Went in to lease an 09 Civic for the wife. From the get go Michael was very helpful. Pretty good people. There were better offers at another dealer right over the bridge in Staten Island but I decided to go with these guys and spend the extra $10-20 a month. I would recommend them to anyone who wants to go in and drive out with a new vehicle the same day. Overall I'd say it was a pretty good experience.

Went to the dealership this morning after previously dealing with Mark via e-mail and over the phone. Mark explained that he handles internet inquiries and after reviewing what we spoke about he introduced me to Abbey who handled everything from there. Abbey was great, first we took a test drive and the Accord Coupe was as great as I hoped it would be! Abbey took all of my information, first for my clunker and then for the new car paper work. While we were taking care of the paper work the car was being prepared for me to take home. Dmitry handles the financing and he was also great, explained all my options and he got me a great rate on financing. Overall this was the best car shopping experience I've ever had and I look forward to being a long time customer.

Great experience. I went into this dealership to start up a new lease, and it was perhaps the easiest re-lease I've ever done. I did most of the hard work over the phone with Paul, and my time at the dealership was minimized. Paul was well-informed and friendly, and provided me with an exhaustive tour of features in the car. In fact, he showed me a couple of things in the new car that were also in my old car but I never knew about because my previous salesperson didn't give a tour!I would easily and wholeheartedly recommend this dealership because I've had a couple of good experiences there now, and Paul Rittberg, my salesman, was tops.

I usually say that I'd rather get a root canal than buy a car. This experience was very different. I actually enjoyed shopping at Academy Honda.I started my search for a new Odyssey by going online late one evening and asking for a price quote. The next morning there was an email from Lauren Muglia with an itemized list of what I had asked for. She followed that up with a phone call and was just so nice that I decided to look at what Academy had in stock instead of going elsewhere. Lauren introduced us to Khalil Quraishi who took us out for a test drive. Khalil explained all about the car and answered all of our questions. Since we decided to use the cash for clunkers program it took us much longer than usual to make the purchase. Khalil was extremely patient and did not try and rush us in any way even though it was an extremely busy Saturday afternoon. Khalil then introduced us to Abdo Behary (another nice and professional Academy employee) who completed the paperwork in record time. I can honestly say that everyone we met was professional, friendly and so helpful during the entire process. We'll definitely go back to Academy the next time we're looking for a new car.

We entered DCH Academy Honda just before closing on a Saturday evening. Everyone was courteous and very helpful. The receptionist called for a saleman to come to the floor and he asked if we wanted anyone in particular. We told him that were looking for a new car and could he give us a price including taxes and everything else for a particular Honda Civic model. We told him that we were familiar with the car. He immediately got on his computer and gave us a price which he wrote down for us on the back of his business card. The price was less than another dealership and there was no haggling or having to go to a backroom to speak with a manager. We told him that we would probably come back on Monday to purchase a car. We returned on Monday afteroon and completed all the paperwork {including the 'cash for clunkers' material} and drove home that night with our new Honda Civic. It was that simple and there was no sales pressuring or maneuvering. We picked up our NY plates from the dealership towards the end of the 20 day temporary registration period. I would highly recommend this dealership. Elcris Matias was a model of a good automobile salesman!

My visit to DCH Academy Honda was during the "Cash for Clunker" Program. My first impression was one of confidence as I was immediately attended to with a warm smile. Things only got better when I met the Salesman Jorge Maldonado. He demonstrated an excellent attitude regarding my desire to purchase a 2010 Honda Pilot EXL. He was not deceptive or agressive in selling a product and obtaining a quota. Clearly Jorge had a genuine interest to make you happy with the numbers. In the process of taking a test drive he humored my 3 son's with his amusing tales of his childhood, something that i could relate to. He exudes professionalism and provides a positive experience with the customer. Go To Him and He will take care of you. Once again Thanks Jorge

This was our second purchase at this dealership. We should have gone straight there instead of wasting our time at other places. Aaron was very professional and friendly and gave us the fair price (in line with edmunds.com TMV price). He was calm and courteous throughout the transaction, and went out of his way to accommodate our needs. We had to wait a day before we could finalize our purchase and he kept in touch with us in between. We also got 7-year free oil changes! The bottom line is - they give you fair price and don't play games with it. All of their sales, finance and service staff is professional and courteous. It really was a stress-free experience for us both times, unlike at other dealerships. They also handled the CARS program very well, the paperwork and everything else was smooth and easy.

Recently purchased a Honda Civic from DCH Academy Honda, dealt with the manager Sunil Fernandes and he made it very easy for us.

I bought a car in 2004 from Paul when I had no clue what I was doing. My car just broke down and needed one ASAP for work. Paul greeted me right at the door which I was shocked and said come on let's go look at the Accord. A few hours later we were in the finance room working on the price and got what I felt was a pretty good deal. Paul made it a great experience and though I was leery of car salesman and wanted an Acura, I felt very comfortable. Over five years, we continue to recommend Paul to anyone who is looking to buy a car or Honda. Yesterday, my family was buying a car and we had a horrible experience at Open Road Honda in Edison. It was horrendous. They backed out of the signed contract and just treated us like we were just another person. I was not there but my family was upset. I immediately called Paul when I heard this and he stepped up to the plate like a true professional. He kept me on the phone for a half an hour while we went over some numbers and if he would be able to assist us. Within the next three hours, we were driving home in a new car with no hassles and a reassured feeling with the car. Paul always makes a note to call you on your birthday and to make sure your car is running great. He is an absolute professional and if anyone is reading this posting. DCH has great people, but I highly HIGHLY!!!! recommend Paul. Paul, If you or your manager read this. Thank you so much! We will definitely be recommending you again. You really helped us out!

I am not very good with cars and came in knowing only the basics of what I wanted and a certain price in mind. From the start, everyone there was so nice and helpful. Got me the car, a great price and explained everything and even set up my insurance with me. I had to wait awhile for the finance associate, so Vipin sat with me and talked explaining all other aspects of cars and treating me like a human being and not just another client. He even drove home with me to drop off my car that night! It was a GREAT experience! If you need a used car, see Vipin!

I have purchased a number of cars in the last 30 years. Up until recently the experience was usually the same. I did a little research about car prices, decided which manufacture and model I wanted, walked into a dealership and was greated by a super friendly salesperson. Every thing would go great until price came up and then the fun would begin. By the time I left the dealership I was exhausted from all the haggling back and forth between me and the salesperson and their manager. 7 years ago this all changed. I walked into Academy Honda on Route 9 in Old Bridge NJ and met Paul Rittberg. Paul asked me what I wanted, searched his inventory for available cars, walked away for 5 minutes and came back with a price. He said he was giving me the best price he could and for some strange reason I believed him (note, I do not typically believe anyone unless they convincingly prove it). I and my family have purchased a total of five cars from Paul and each and every time he has been courteous, professional, funny and a pleasure to deal with. He has never pushed me to purchase anything more than I wanted and even has dissuaded me from buying accessories that weren't really needed. I have recommended Paul Rittberg to everyone I knew who was looking to purchase a Honda and will continue recommending him in the future. Everyone should have such a pleasant experience when spending so much money.

Mr. Bassi was patient, always pleasant and courteous. He had a calm demeanor at all times and was easy to talk to. He was also very knowledgeable about the vehicles we were interested in. Overall I would say our car buying experience was very pleasant.

Nitten from the begining to the end was professional, friendly and curtious. He developed good rapport (not pushy) which actually convinced me to by the vehicle sooner than later. He presented as educated and polished yet motivated to make the sale. His supervisor John worked with us to make the deal go smooth and managed to work some extras in which made me feel extremely satisfied with the overall experience. We all know Honda sells itself, but the sales people made the time to buy now and worked with me to make me feel I was getting a good value.Camille Mazza

This was our second time purchasing a car and the first time we drove out of NY for one. Vipin was an excellent salesman who gave us his best discount on an 06 Honda Pilot EX. Can't belive how little we are paying for it. We are so happy with the deal. I recommended these guys to everyone. They are the best and will hook you up with the best deal.

From our first sit down, we were given a distinct discount on the vehicle msrp. At that point, we felt we could make a deal. Nitin was very friendly and helpful. He answered most of our questions, and those he couldn't answer, he immediately found an answer for us. He was a pleasure to work with. We spoke with at least four other gentlemen while there and they were all very helpful and courteous. Thank You!

Great Deal on a 2006 Honda CRV. The Car had some ant issues but it was handled quickly and efficiently by Tim Crowley and staff. The car was cleaned very well after being treated for the ant problem. Phone calls were answered promptly and courteously. All staff who helped in the sale of my CRV were friendly. It's my second time buying a CRV at DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge, the first time a brand new Crv and this time a certified, pre-owned Crv and would recommend anyone in the market for a Honda to go there. Thanks to Tim, Gerry and all the others who helped with the sale. I Love My CRV! M.Hartigan

I was searching for new car online and then visited a couple of other dealers before I bought my 2009 Accord at DCH Academy just a few days ago for the price I was looking for. Both Mark and Paul were very friendly,knowledgable and professional. Overall the purchase was a very pleasant experience. No pushy saleman. I would surely recomend DCH.

I looked at every car under the sun within the 17-21k range I test drove the civic, the fit, the mazda 3, the Soul, the Cobalt, corolla, scion tc,xb and xd and the accord and let me say I fell in love with the accord the minute I got in the car. It has a smooth ride a powerful engine in comparison to others and had a great financing deal but perhaps the best aspect of this dealership aside from its very reasonable pricing (probably the best in NJ) was the Dealer whom I had the pleasure doing business with which was Aaron Rosenblum, a driven cheerful young man he did not pressure me into buying a car or throw a color I did not want at me, he was very accomodating and esnured a smooth transaction all in all. The dealer made about a little above the base invoice of the actual car and I was quite happy with the deal (he has to live too) and he threw in free oil changes for 7 years/100000 miles (3000x 34 changes) about 1200 dollars in savings! And I got the extended warranty bumper to bumper for 7 years, for about 1800 bucks financed so pretty decent, not great but not bad either. All in all i was very happy with the deals the car cost about 23 (prior to the financing) all said and done, with tax, title and registration (very low document fee as well), Thanks Aaron hopefully I will never need that bumper to bumper warranty.Sebastian

I recommend visiting DCH Academy Honda to all those considering a car purchase. I would especially recommend you to ask for Sunil fernandes, he made my car purchase so much easier than I thought it would be. He worked with the price, gave me a sweet deal and most of all had patience working with me and getting to know what I really wanted. I had an incredible experience.

This is the 6th car I have leased from this dealership. Obviously since I keep returning it is because the service and quality I receive are second to none. My sales rep Paul Rittberg has always been courteous, friendly, funny and fair. He explains all details from pricing to the explanation of use of the car with accuracy! This 2009 Accord is by far the best one I have had thus far! I am so happy with my purchase and with this dealership. Thanks,Sherry

DCH Academy Honda is the most wonderful dealership - They are like family and they are professional and knowledgeable....they proudly carry on the incredible profession and tradition set by their former colleague, now at Paramus Honda....Barry Magnus, a true giant in the industry and in life....It is his amazing abilities that set the leadership that I came to know and love of Academy Honda when I bought my first car from them in 1997. 12 years to the day, the incredible tradition and service and brillance instituionalized by Barry continues in its current incredible professionals that I have interacted with over the course of the last twelve years and that I look forward to many many more years of relationships with. Most notably, the three incredible and wonderful and talented people that assisted me in the greatest of ways with charm, grace, knowledge, effective and efficient professionalism and service and kindness are the manager that assisted me in making it possible for me to get to Academy Honda and have the confidence that I would get a car, Ruben Arcello; aided by the wonderful people that answered the phones and got me to him; My day would not have happened with the success that it did, without the earth moving experiences and professionalism and kindness and secure knowledge of a most remarkable talent in my New Car Sales Representative by the name of Marcia Dietrick- she was remarkable in every step of the process and acted in great partnership with her colleagues, including the promising and kind young man that she is now mentoring.....The most amazing compliment and most amazing and instrumental force in making this happen in the ways that matter above and beyound was the incredible assistance and knowledge and strength and kindness and patience of Business Manager Dmittry Rybakov, who is the most excellent professional in his field and who is family and friend and mentor in all of this endeavor. Thank you so very much to all of you for always taking such good care of me and for Peter and the entire staff of professional colleagues at every level, including in sales and service, such as Christine and Tony and Edie. I am truly blessed to have all of you in my midst in the important and vital ability to meet my needs in a safe and reliable and gorgeous car. With the deepest gratitude and humble respect to all of you at DCH.....my best regards, and for all of the reasons that I have always continued to refer people to you, and most importantly, the peace of mind and safety and joy you have always provided me, Thank you for everything, Carol Lynn Fine, Esq.

I have been looking to buy a new for about a month. I have been to several Honda dealerships in the area before I came to DCH. When I entered I was greeted immediately. The environment is friendly, clean, and inviting. I asked the receptionist if there was a sales rep available and immediately Marcia came over. She was extremely nice and was not pushy at all. She was laid back and honest with me every step of the sale. The price of my Civic was good and there was a lot of models to choose from. Overall great service. The only thing bad was the sitting around for hours but thats what you expect when buying a new car. I love this place, I highly recommend DCH!

Hello My name IS Donna Giovinozzo. I was A DCH academy Honda on Saturday and bought a Toyota Solara. John Wilson the sales rep, wasvery personable, and friendly as always, as for this is not the first time I have bought a vechile from him. John Wilson Got me exactly where I needed to be, and Tion fought for my payments to be where I needed them. However after I drove away with my car, Some one had notice a little minor adjustment that neede to be handled. I brought my car back i On Monday June 29.2009. To greet me was Adrian Acosta, the Manager, I explaine to him my dilemma and Mr. Acosta handled my entire situation with the most professional and up beat friendliness to have my needs met. With out a doubt Adrian Acosta the manager made me feel at home and ease my mind. Mr. Acosta made sure theat everything was taken care of and also in a reasonable time frame. So when you are in doubt with anything please be aware that people like Mr. Acosta care about there buyers and people and peole like him,who stick to there word, make people like me want to come back over and over again.

My husband, our 2 year old son and I went into DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge, NJ this past Saturday to purchase a new vehicle that we had priced online. We were met by Aaron, who could best be described as down to earth, polite and patient (especially as we had a restless 2 year old with us!). We would highly recommened asking for him by name if you don't like dealing with pushy salesmen. We also met Ruben (sales manager) and Dmitry (finance) who were both equally pleasant.We are now the proud owners of a 2009 Honda Civic LX-S and are greatful to DCH Academy for a quick, smooth and pleasant car buying experience with more than fair prices to boot!-The Figueroa Family

My husband and I went out to get ideas for a newer used car and were not intent on purchasing one on this particular day. Edward was the first to approach us and was great to work with. He was accomodating, professional and went out of his way to see we were taken care of. Edward met our needs, made sure we got the best possible interest rate and was a pleasure to work with. We are very happy with our purchase. Sincerely, The Ripley's

From start to finish, all the people I dealt with at the dealership were professional, friendly, and accommodating. The sales process was thorough and comprehensive without being drawn out too long. There was no sales pressure and no last minute tricks, an annoying occurrence at other dealerships I've worked with in the past.

I really appreciate the information and advice he offered and the contacts they shared to help me. His assistance has been invaluable during this process.I was very impressed with Eds ability of getting things done in a timely and professional manner. In addition, Eds follow-up was very precise and impressive. Thank you for all your help with for the car.Again, thank you so much. I greatly appreciate your generosity.

We came down from RI to see a preowned Hummer and ended up purchasing it and trading in our Chevrolet Avalanche. Our experience was fantastic and all the salespeople involved were courteous and professional. We were offered a fair trade-in and a competitive final sales price. No back and forth--just straight forward good business. We drove off happy. Thank you!!!

Worse service ever, if u are willing to pay $2000 for a simple brake change then you should go there. They will make you change multiple parts that you do not need, and they will convince you that you need them for safety. If you are not a car person, you will believe them and pay $2000 for unnecessary repairs.

This was my first good experience with a highway dealership. Everyone I dealt with was friendly & helpful. My sales person Marcia Dietrick was great. She was professional, helpful & straight forward. I simply told her what I needed for my trade in & where I had to be on my monthly payments. Minimal back & forth from sales person to manager. She called wholesalers the following day to find a buyer for my trade in & get me a better price for it. I had been deciding between a Honda Piot EX-L with RES & an Acura MDX. Her effort to follow up with me & work to get me a better price for my vehicle is why I chose the Pilot & will be reccommending both Marcia & DCH Academy Honda (Old Bridge) to anyone looking for a vehicle. Once we negotiated our final price I called three other dealerships in the area to see if they could match the deal I had gotten & none of them came close.

Mr. Khalil and Mr. Ruben and the entire team of DCH Academy Honda are the best. They all went out of their way for me to get my car. Mr. Khalil, Mr. Ruben and the finance dept. worked so hard to get me qualified for the best rate. They deserve ten out of ten. I am extremely satisfied and happy with my purchase. This was the fourth car purchased from here. I recommend this dealer to everyone.

Jorge Maldanado and Michael Serra are the most sincere salesman I have ever met. Not only are they extremely kind they are funny and entertaining as well. I have been to other dealerships and have been hastled with phone calls and salesman just following me around being pushy. DCH is a hasle-free environment. They are very honest and do not lie about prices like other dealers do. I would highly recommend this dealership. They made my experience in buying my first Honda car pleasant. I am very happy with my purchase and plan to recommend all my friends who are interested in buying a Honda to come to DCH. Michael took me out for a test drive and after buying the car Jorge sat down with me for about a half an hour giving me an overview on how everything in the car works. He wanted to make sure I understood its features. There is no other dealership or salesmen I would recommend.

I have been leasing Accords since they were first introduced. I dealt with other dealerships in NJ, SI, and Brooklyn. I found the people at DCH Academy Honda to be friendly, truthful, and polite, how unusual and refreshing for auto salespeople. I waited until I picked up my plates before I posted this comment because I just wasnt used to such good treatment, and I wanted to be sure everything they told me was true. I am truly impressed with these gentlemen and the dealership. I recommend them to all without reservation.

Customer service was great. Their presentation of themselves as well as the dealership and their inventory is spectacular. I had the pleasure of working with Tim Crowley. He was fantastic and I would recommend him to ANY first-timer who is looking for a patient, understanding man to help them through the sales process. There was some confusion with my bank and some number-crunching was involved, and he was extremely patient as I made numerous phone calls to rectify the problem. Tim speaks very slowly and clearly in order to avoid any confusion, which was great for me, because I was a first time car buyer and needed to hear everything twice or thrice. You'll notice that some dealers speak really fast in order to confuse the customer and trick them into missing some important details pertaining price, fees, conditions, and so on.Throughout the process, I felt like Tim was on MY side and was looking out for MY best interest. His 19 (or was it 15) years of experience in the industry showed clearly as he dealt professionally and efficiently with us, his clients and answered all our questions confidently and in great detail. Although the service was great, I felt that DCH could've cut me some slack with my interest rate (my credit score is amazing and they gave me an 8.9% interest on my used car). In addition, I bought a 2008 car with 6000 miles. It is practically new so I was quite shocked that it didn't come with any roadside assistance or regular services (oil change, etc.).Other than that, everything was great. I saw the car on a Friday afternoon and bought it that Monday. With DCH Academy, it was just that easy.

Joe Scardigno and Eddie Moy were incredibly helpful, diligent, friendly and hard-working in their effort to find the car we wanted. They didn't have it on the lot, but since we weren't in a hurry they looked until they found it. I will definitely buy my next vehicle from them, and would recommend them exceptionally highly to anyone looking to buy a terrific car at a sensible price. They were patient and responsive, and highly ethical; not a typical combination at a dealership. Go, and tell your friends too!!!

I came to this dealership as someone needing a reliable car for someone with bad credit and they were able to provide a car that I never thought I would get financing for. Tim was very helpful in making decisions and kept in contact throughout the entire process. He also called me the day after to make sure everything went well while driving the car. As soon as I told him I had a very minor problem he put me through to the service department to help me immediately. I had a very positive experience and will definitely recommend purchasing a car through this dealership and requesting to work with Tim.

I can't say enough good things about Academy Honda. My first time buying a car went easier than I thought it would. I felt that the staff was very professional and courteous, in fact Mr. Crowley was waiting at the door when I arrived. Mr. Crowley and Mr. Bruno made my first time buying a certified pre-owned Honda a pleasure and I would surely recommend them and the dealership to anyone looking for to purchase a car.

I contacted 3-4 other Honda dealers and 3-4 Toyota dealers. DCH Academy Honda outshined them all, by far. They gave me the exact deal that I wanted. It was a completely hassle-free experience. I first came in contact with DCH Academy Honda through the internet. They quoted a price to me online. I spoke with their internet sales specialist with some skepticism because I felt that perhaps they were quoting the vehicle without wheels, or something outrageous. But when I went into their dealership in the morning, they gave me the deal as was originally quoted on the exact vehicle that I wanted. And it had wheels too! I live in North / Central NJ. If you are in the market for a new Honda Odyssey, do yourself a favor and just give them a call. You will be glad you did.

I can't say enough positive things about my experience with Academy Honda. It was truly a pleasure to deal with the 2 employees I did business with. Purchasing a certified used vehicle for the first time -- I was a bit leary. But Mr. Scardigno and Ms. Dietrick put all of my worries to rest. They were very professional, but still gave me the feeling that I was working with individuals that had my best interest at heart. The condition of the vehicle was outstanding upon delivery. And, any questions/concerns I had after the sale, were answered/addressed immediately. No doubt that I will do business with this dealership again. AAAAAAA++++++++++++

The staff at DCH Academy Honda are far from what I have experienced in the past with dealerships. There is no "game" there. They offered me their best deal and went above and beyond to make sure the car-buying process was not complicated and hassle free. I never got the notion that anyone was being "salesy" or "fake" with me during the process. They are genuine. Their knowledge of their cars is top-notch and most importantly they believe in what they sell. As a business owner myself, I never endorse a product I don't believe in. When you're being honest with people it shows and it truly put me at ease, and that was the feeling I had from the moment I walked into DCH Academy to the moment my wife and I drove away in our new Honda Civic. I personally dealt with Abbey, Ruben and Lilly throughout the process and recommend them and the entire staff without any reservation.

Mr. Vipin Rishl is the best salesman I ever had the pleasure to buy an automobile from. He is courteous and caring and works hard with you to find a fair price for your vehicle purchase. And when I had a slight problem with the car I bought, Mr. Vipin Rishl personally took care of the problem and it was fixed perfectly. I will recommend DCH Academy Honda and Mr. Vipin Rishl to my family and friends when they need to purchase a new automobile.

Thanks to Mark, Abbey, Demetrius and the rest of the staff for making my car purchase such a pleasure. DCH Academy had a large selection of vehicles to choose from and they're very clear on the costs involved. Their explanation of prices and costs are very clear and, they took the time to go ever any questions I had.

This was the first time I had ever gone to a DCH store, and to be honest with you- I wish i had known more about them a long time ago. My wife and I walked into the store where we were promptly greeted by Ruben Arcila [sales manager]. The way this young man carries himself,as the Manager of that dealership, is absolutely amazing. He provided us with best service that I have ever recieved purchasing a vehicle. As the consumer, I shopped at one other store - that I would never return to- because they were rude and disrespectful.Ruben introduced us to the sales consultant, who appraised our vehicle for free and within 15 mins. The Sales consultant took us out for a ride in the Accord model that we wanted and showed us all the features. The sales consultants in this dealership really know there stuff when it comes to the Honda Product Line and I was very impressed with all the facts that he supplied us with.When it came to the negotiation of the deal- he gave us everything in writing, and got the car for us within 2 hours. The finance manager was polite and got us through that process in a professional matter. By the time I left the finance office I was escorted to right to our vehicle and Erich Tam went over the car from top to bottom.All 5s for DCH Academy Honda across the board- I understand that you can not please everyone 100% of the time, but the the service that I received at the dealership was the best I have ever received. The staff at this dealership should receive better recognition, and once sales increase again- Buy your cars at a DCH store - because they treat you the way you should be treated - I am a living testament.

Honestly, I have bought & leased many cars in my lifetime. Dealt with many different dealers in the tri-state region. None have been so great, as this last experience I had with DCH Academy Honda. Plain & simple, I got what I wanted minus the hassle. I can't be more truthfull & honest. Never expected in making a deal on the same day I set foot in this dealership. Honesty, proffesionalism and respectful treatment. what more can a guy ask for.

I just wanted to tell you that Lauren, in the internet sales division and Jorge, our sales person on Sat. did an outstanding job. Lauren was one of many dealerships we contacted via e-mail. It was her professionalism and ability to cut to the chase and offer us the car we wanted at the price we wanted that brought us to your dealership. Once there Jorge or salesperson was also terrific. His easy going manner and level of courtesy and professionalism tempered with just the right amount of humor made the transaction a pleasure. As one who hates the haggling of new car purchases, I have to say this was a pleasant experience and not as bad as going to the dentist.

This dealership is the best Honda dealership in the area! I spoke to a lot of dealerships that didn't really want to look for the car I wanted. I got the exact car I was looking for with the help of Mr. Adrian Acosta. I am very happy with my purchase. They gave me the best deal around and a car that was in pristine condition. I was able to come in, test drive the car and leave the dealer very quickly with the car.Thanks! I will definitely be there again maybe for a 2010 Accord coupe.

This a great dealership, easy to get to and they have a lot of different cars. I wanted a nice Honda and they had a few cars I was interested in. I test drove the car and decided that was the one I had to have. All my questions were answered by the salesmen, Vipin, and he was also very friendly and polite. He let me take my time to check the car and the car was clean as a whistle inside and out. At no point did I feel like they were rushing me to get to the next customer like in other dealerships. I highly recommend this dealership especially if you are looking for a CPO Honda. They have a lot of nice sport ones right now and the sales person I dealt with was extremely helpful.

I wasn't able to get exactly what I was looking for, i.e. I would have preferred using a manual instead of an automatic. I like the car I purchased; however, it's much bigger than it used to be and I prefer a smaller car. Overall the experience was very pleasant. I dealt with Mark and Abbey. Both were professional, friendly and courteous and I would definitely do business with them again.

Totally satisfied with my new car purchase experience from beginning to end. Was given the attention and care expected, my salesperson was Marcia and she was great! I have no complaints and would refer my closest family to this dealership. Thanks! I love the new Civic...

Everyone At DCH Academy Honda were great to deal with. This was my first time leasing a new car and they made my first experience a pleasant one. They all worked very hard to make sure i was completely satisfied with my purchase. Mike, Ruben, and Houssen are all honest and hard working individuals and i wouldnt recommend anyone else to get a car from!

My experience at DCH Academy Honda was very pleasant particularly with my salesman Dan Fisher.He is an honest and knowledgeable salesman. Dan, Ruben(manager) and Hussain(finance) all went out of their way to accommodate me. They worked fast and got me the exact model and color that i wanted. I would recommend Dan to anyone looking to buy a Honda.

Dealershp was great to work with. Everything promised was delivered in an efficient and professional manner. Our salesman Michael Serra was wonderful. He knew his product and answered all our questions. He is friendly and easy to work with. We bought an Accord a couple of months ago and Michael was very helpful. We were very pleased with the Civic we just bought him and in about two months will go back to him for a third car.

I would, & have, highly recommended this dealership and especially Abby, Lauren and Abdo. The entire experience there was wonderful. This is the first time we have ever walked out of a car dealership after buying a car, and felt that we didn't get ripped off. Everyone there was friendly, helpful and professional, and we felt they were honest with us, and we really felt happy that we'd gotten a good deal.We had been to 2 other Honda dealers before coming to this one, and the others would not budge on the sticker price - one dealership told us Honda's sell themselves, they did not have to.Abby, Lauren & Abdu, if you read this - thank you!

I recently purchased an 06 Honda Accord and overall I had a very good experience. The salesman I had was excellent. He did everything he said he would do. After we came to a price, when I went back to get the car, they had put all new tires on and replaced the brakes. It was a pleasure to deal with them.

Transaction took 5 hours - we were told after paperwork & cleaning our new vehicle we would be done in 2 or 3 hours. Salesman did not catch the fact that all the paperwork had the wrong VIN # . I caught the mistake upon signing the forms. We were told that our trade in transaction HAD to take place that day (Saturday) even though we did not have the title with us - because the wholesaler wanted the car that day to export. Funny thing, our trade in is now for sale in their used car lot for more than $5000. more than we were given in trade. Our fault entirely for not holding out for more money. We did not appreciate being lied to. Next we moved onto the finance office where AGAIN the wrong VIN # was on all the papers we were being asked to sign. I had to point out the error once again!! At this point we just want to finish the transaction, empty out the trade in and go home in our new car. We have been at the dealer for 5 hours (2 hours longer than we intended) and have an appointment to go to. This is when the overview of your new car usually is done by the salesman so all the features of the new car are gone over. Our salesman did not even offer to do this for us. Even if we could not have stayed right then to do it, at least he could have offered to go over the new vehicle at another time convenient for us. This was the 4th Honda we purchased from Academy Honda beginning in 1997. This experience was not like any of the others. It left us wondering about the competence of the staff, especially our salesman who, himself, has been at Academy since the 1990's.

I bought a 2009 Honda civic EX from DCH Academy Honda. Jorge Maldonado was my sales person who was very friendly and knowledgeble and made my new purchase hasslefree and best experience I could ever imagine. He gave me the best price offer available on the market eliminating hassles in negotiation. I would highly recommend Jorge if you are planning to buy a any Honda automobile...

This was one of the most honest Dealerships I have been to in a while. Ruben was great he went out of his way for me with the whole car experience he even offered me a way better price than most of the local Honda dealerships in the area. He also earned my business and my respect as a loyal customer with his honestly and and dignity. I would diffently tell anyone who is looking for a Car or Truck to go see him first. Ruben doesnt care if he makes a sale with you or not his all about the respect and dignity that is very rare to find in a car dealership. I also have many friends and family I would recomened to him becasue I knew I can trust him. He would Get a 110% rating from me and letter grade of A+. Thanks Ruben for being there

Bought a 2008 Honda Element EX from DCH ACADEMY HONDA in March 2009. Overall was a positive experience. I did most of my research online and was able to walk in ready to deal. did a few test drives then haggled on the price for a couple hours. the sales staff were flexible, nice, friendly and reasonable with the price especially since the economy stinks right now and i was buying a 2008 car.walked into dealership at 1:30am on a Saturday and drove away in my new car by 2pm. takes my girlfriend longer to buy shoes.

Paul and his manager's didn't waster my time and keep going back and forth for hours while trying to strike a deal for our new Honda CR-V. The black truck I wanted was supposed to come in weeks later which I was concerned about....it came in the following week! Nice and quick. And even quicker (believe it or not) was the closing process. I went in after work on a Friday around 3:00 and was out of there by 4:00! I told them I was in a hurry and they respected that. Overall...excellent customer service and excellent deal!

I was looking for a new vehicle and checked out Dealerrater to see which dealers received high marks and noticed that Academy Honda was one of the top rated. I checked out their on-line inventory and saw they did not have the vehicle (Civic Coupe EX-L with Navi) I was looking for in stock. I sent an email to see if they could find one for me. Within a short time I heard back from Mark who not only said he could locate one for me, gave me a price which was extremely reasonable. Much lower than I expected. I had a trade-in so he recommended I stop by and get it appraised. I stopped by a few days later and met Mark and Paul. Paul helped me get the price I was looking for on my trade, locate the vehicle I was looking for, and coordinate the installation of additional equipment so everything was ready when I picked up my vehicle. If you are in the market for a Honda, you MUST stop by Academy and see Paul. He and the whole team over there will treat you right, you will not waste your time.

Based on my experience with this dealership, I'm highly suspicious of the other reviews here. I can't believe that others had such a good experience after my dealings with them. And the dealership does know about this site, my salesperson referenced it. Anyway, I purchased a 2005 Honda Odyssey from DCH Academy Honda. My wife contacted them about another car that they were advertising but that was not available, but we were told about this one. We called them back a little later and told them we wanted to come see it. They said great, it's ready, so we headed in. We mentioned over the phone that it was a long trip for us {over an hour} and we had 2 small kids {a 2 year old and a 4 month old}, so we wanted to make sure it was available. They said absolutely. When we got there, the car was indeed there but only then did they tell us that they sliding door on the drivers side was broken. I don't expect them to mention that in the ad for the car, but when we call and tell them we are coming from far away with an infant and a toddler, you would think they would mention it, right? No. The car looked good otherwise and after taking for a test drive we decided we were interested, pending repair of the door. They assured us it would be taken care of. The price was good, plus it was listed as a Honda Certified Used Car and included a warranty, so we agreed to purchase the car. We came back a few days later to pick it up and finalize the paper work. That was basically amatuer hour. You would think they never sold a car before. It took forever and no one seemed to know what to do. Also, we were told the plates would be ready then, but they were not. So that meant a 3rd trip back for us. We drove the car home and it was fine, HOWEVER, the CD player did not work. This is where things really fell apart with them. We drove back up for a 3rd time to pick up the plates and have them fix the CD player. They told us the player and the entire audio unit had to be removed and send to Honda in California for repair, and we wouldn't have it back for well over 3 weeks. It seems hard to believe that was the only option to have this repaired. I told them not to take the unit out as we weren't sure what we were going to do and I really wasn't interested in a 4th trip back to the dealership. We never would have purchased this car if we knew the CD player didn't work. What really concerns me is that this was promoted as a Honda Certified Used Car--that means that it goes through a thorough insepction of all parts of the car to ensure it is in working order, including the CD player. So obviously that wasn't done, which has me wondering what else wasn't checked?! My salesperson told me "I didn't check the CD player because I didn't have a CD". And that's an acceptable response?! I asked to see the Service Manager and was conveniently told he wasn't available. The only offer they have made to resolve the situation is to have the CD player looked at again by another mechanic. I would stay away from this place. Maybe the new car sales experience is better, but buying a used car from them was really painful. The sales people look like Circuit City rejects, and are typical used car salesmen who will do whatever it takes to sell you a car, which includes lying/withholding information. Don't think you are getting a quality car if they promote it as a Honda Certified Used Car. It's obviously meaningless. Really bad experience.

3/17/09This is the second time I've had the pleasure of doing business with this dealer and my overall experience has been 'outstanding'. I purchased a 2007 at the beginning of 2008 and last week I bought a 2009 Accord LX. Although the location of this dealer is not ideal to me (it is a 45 minute drive), however, the staff at the dealer provides the best customer service at the lowest price possible. They do not jerk around & give you the best price to start with. Sunil has been very helpful in the whole purchase process. I checked around with other dealers in the area & no one could beat DCH's price. They treat you with respect & dignity and really make the car buying process a breeze. Last year, I had to take my entire family & the kids were running around the dealership & everyone was more than friendly. Another positive is the follow-up from the dealer on how the car was doing & if I had any questions to let them know. Another amazing aspect is their credit dept also came very close to the financing rate I was getting from my bank and the man personally apologized that they could not get a lower rate, which just shows class & how respectful they are. I would recommend this dealer to anyone in a heartbeat.

I recently purchased an '09 Accord Coupe. This is probably the 7th new car I have ever purchased and this was by far the best experience I had at a dealership.My first contact was with Lauren (Internet Sales Manager). I requested a quote from a couple of dealers and hers was the first response and the best price. I even was able to speak to a finance person about rates before even setting foot in the dealership. I setup an appointment and went to the dealership and was introduced to Marcia. She was very helpful and professional. I test drove the car I was interested in and then went inside to work out a deal. They only had 1 Accord in stock that had what I was looking for, but it also was a model higher than my internet quote was based on. I asked Marcia what the internet price would have been for the higher model and she came back with an extremely reasonable price - was actually less than Edmunds TMV.I worked with Tian on the financing and found him to be very helpful and willing to answer an questions that I had (financing, warranty, etc.)I also have been to the service department twice (once for spoiler installation and another for slight rattling sound). Both times, I was there only about 1 hour (both times on Saturday). Each time, the work was done properly and as I expected - best I've ever experienced. All of the service people are very friendly. The waiting room has Wifi, a TV and free coffee and donuts.

My wife and I arrived at the dealership at 9:00 AM and were greeted at the door, even though a meeting was in progress, a salesman was sent to help us. We were there to look at a Civic Hybrid, not knowing anything about the car. Paul Singh told us all about the car, took us for a test drive and never rushed us nor pressured us about the car. Once we decided that we were interested in the car he explained the cost, asked us if that was acceptable, and while his first offer was OK, when my wife and I made a counter offer, he went to his manager and it was approved immediately, with no long drawn out negotiations. Upon meeting the sales manager I thanked him for his professionalism in coming to a mutually accepted price, and he in turn thanked me for agreeing to a price that was fair to both the dealership and myself.The paper work was completed by Tian Reid the finance director who was equally a pleasure to work with. He took care of us in a timely manner, explaining different available products, but never being pushy.They continually offered us coffee, water, and had donuts available for us while we were there. They also respected our time and had the car ready for delivery by the time the paper work was completed.The longest consumption of our time was how long it took for my wife to decide which color Hybrid that she wanted. Paul even had a car driven in from another location so that my wife could see a particular color.Our experience at Academy Honda was a pleasurable one.

My experience at DCH Academy Honda was exceptionally exciting. The wait was worth it! Michael Serra was very friendly through out the entire time and continuously made sure his customers were comfortable. He made sure I knew exactly how my car functions (I just bought a 2009 Civic Coupe EX - I highly recommend it), and answered all of my questions thoroughly and honestly; which shows that he knows what he's doing. I definitely got a great price on the car and would recommend DCH Academy Honda to anyone looking for a car.

All the folks were very halpful and nice. I would highly recommend DCH Academy Honda to my friends and family.

My visit to DCH Honda Academy was perfect because Michael was not pushy or over anxious with me to sell a car. He let me look first and when I said I would get back to him he didn't push me for my phone number, email etc. Thats the reason I decided that after looking at numerous other dealers, I decided I wanted to buy my car from him only. He didnt make me feel like I was being lied to about the price and he was never in a hurry with me. Being a first time car buyer this meant more to me than anyone will ever know because it was nerve wracking to begin with but he made the experience a breeze. Another great quality he possessed was that he doesnt talk to you like you are an idiot. He explained everything I wanted to know but didnt make me feel like I should know all these things already. The entire team was polite, kind and very accomadating. they were polite and funny and easygoing and thats why I will recommend DCH Academy Honda to anyone I know looking for a car.

It was a pleasure working with DCH Academy Honda. This is my third Honda Civic (2009 Civic LX) since 1987, but my first purchase from this dealership. My salesman Jorge Maldonado was extremely knowledgeable and courteous, and he answered my many questions calmly and without the dreaded "sales-pressure" that you may encounter from other salesmen. I would highly recommend Jorge and DCH Academy Honda to my friends. P.S. I love this Civic !!!

The transaction went smooth and well due to the excellent manner of how they offer their services. I love the wonderful humor of Abby, the calmness of Mark, the coolness of John, and the graciousness of super-dupper Sunil. You're the best team! Keep up the good job. I highly recommend you guys.

I was looking for about 1 month for a 2009 Pilot EX-L. I had discuss the purchase of this car with over 5 dealerships and have come to the conclusion that the people at DCH are honest and trustworthy.When contacting DCH Academy, I first spoke to Lauren. She was extremely helpful, honest and most importantly valued my time. Once scheduling an appointment, all of the information discussed with Lauren was relayed to Mike and I did not have to repeat myself one time!Mike is exceptional associate of the DCH. He was knowledgeable, patient and absolute a pleasure to do business with. I would recommend Lauren and Mike to anyone looking for Honda in the State of New Jersey. This experience made one of the most skeptical new car buyer feel that this process can be done honestly, and quickly. If you are considering a Honda go to DCH Academy (otherwise you will like have a rough time)!

Your New Car Sales Consultant Michael Serra deserves a five in all aspects of your review. He is very courteous, answered all my questions and in a timely fashion. I happened to contact Academy Honda just for prices on Accords and he answered the phone. He advised me that he would call me back in ten minutes. He actually called me back within ten minutes! I give your quality of work a 5 also. We had to order a part for an existing Honda and they actually contacted us within one week to fix this problem. The friendliness review deserves a 5. Michael is a very courteous, friendly person, very patient and informative. Our overal experience deserves a 5. We have been dealing with Academy Honda since 2002. We have always had exceptional experiences. The price deserves a 5. This dealership offers a fair and reasonable price on their vehicles.

I live in Brooklyn and tried basically every dealer ranging from Honda to Nissan to Jeep. After over ten dealers, I decided to try my luck out in Jersey. First off, the internet manager e-mailed me back right away with a price. When I got to the dealer, THAT WAS THE PRICE OF MY MONTHLY PAYMENTS...there was no suprises. What you were told was what you got here. Khalil was one of the nicest dealers I have ever worked with and I would reccomend this dealer to everyone.Literally EVERYONE I dealt with in this dealership was a pleasure!

All other dealers we visited only want you to test drive the exact (Color, seat type, audio system, etc) car you intend to purchase. This was frustrating and time consuming as I just want to drive the car to see if I like the ride first before talking price. We made Academy our last stop and were greeted and introduced to Khalil. We explained what we were looking for (an automatic Civic LX). Khalil then said "let's go for a ride first to see if you like the car". My wife and I thought "Finally!".After driving the car we were presented with a printed quote for "a" car with the options I wanted(regardless of color). After some brief negotiation, we came to an acceptable deal. We then decided on color. Other cars we purchased elsewhere, we had to take the car that evening which I do not care for. Khalil told us it was up to us if we wanted to take the car then or pick it up the next day. The next day we picked up the car witout any problems.The staff is very friendly and accomodating. Khalil is a salesman but is not over-pressuring and encouraged my wife and I to discuss our decission as he left his cubicle. I have owned Honda's in the past and used Academy for service without any issues as well. So far very pleased with the purchase.

When I was shopping around for a Honda Civic EX, we visited other dealerships, looking for the car I wanted. The other dealership I went to was just frustrating to me, but the experience here at DCH Academy Honda was EXCELLENT! The staff was very respectful and EXTREMELY HELPFUL! They did everything in there will for me to be able to get the exact car I wanted. The price was very reasonable. Overall, we were very happy with the service Mike , Lilly and Lauren had provided us.I would highly recommend DCH Academy Honda to everyone!

When shopping around for our CRV, we visited several dealerships. Looking for our new car was frustrating to me, as the sales staff tended to talk down to us and scoffed at our attempts at negotiating price. Jorge Maldonado made our car buying experience pleasant. He was respectful, knowledgeable, and was willing to negotiate. Overall, we were very happy with the service he provided us. If you are interested in buying a Honda, we recommend buying through Jorge Maldonado.

I recently had my Honda Civic totaled and was in the market for a new car. I shopped around at a few other dealers and was having a bad experience overall. Some of the dealers seemed to treat me differently because to them I might not have looked like a serious buyer based on appearance. When looking at a Navigation System in the Honda Fit one salesman actually sighed & said "You know that's more money..." So, I decided to shop around for prices online because I was sick of dealing with people face to face. When I got my quote back from DCH Academy Honda I was pleased with the price so I decided to investigate. I asked them for the prices of some of their accessories in the Honda Fit with installation. Their prices were fair & they made sense. Some of the accessories were up to 150 dollars cheaper than at other dealerships, it was a pretty noticeable difference. So I went in to look at the car one more time with my salesman Michael Serra. He was a refreshing break from the other salesmen I had been dealing with. He was very personable, professional and fun to work with! He answered all my questions and remained patient while I just stared at the paperwork making sure I really wanted to do this for like 2 hours, :) For the financing part I also worked with Lily Li. She was equally amazing in the customer service department. I really got the feeling they were doing all they could to help me out with this situation. In the midst of all this, that was really nice and made me feel more positive about the whole thing. I would recommend DCH Academy Honda to anyone!

Mr Erich Tam is a remarkable salesman. His vast knowledge of the vehicles enabled him to answer all of our questions & not to mention, his price was unbeatable. His professionalism was exceptional and he really made us very comfortable, during our purchase of a 2009 CRV EX. The dealership staff was also very friendly and clean. We can honestly say this was our best car buying experience ever! We would highly recommend this dealership to anyone who is in the market for a new Honda.

My overall experience with Khalil and Hussain was outstanding due to customer service relations at the highest level. The entire process from the moment I walked into the dealership up to being handed the keys to my new car was very pleasent and professional. I will be coming back to DCH Honda when I return my vehicle at its lease end due to in part of the excellent service I received.

The customer service was wonderful. They were very attentive and easy to deal with. The overall friendliness of everyone we dealt with was amazing. Marcia made the lengthy car buying process truly a pleasureable experience. She was delightful and very personable. Our overall experience with Acadamy Honda was excellent. The price was truly phenomenal. I would highly recommend Acadamy to anyone in the market for a Honda, as well as choosing Marcia to assist with your purchase. They truly made the car buying process enjoyable!

The people at DCH Academy Honda are very friendly and professional. The car I just bought is the ninth one my family has purchased from Khalil. He is very personable and makes sure that you have a good deal, as well as a pleasant purchasing experience. Lauren is also a terrific salesperson. She has nothing but nice things to say and talks straight when it comes to business.The only complaint I can muster is that it took a long time to get all the paperwork done. To be fair, it was a Saturday afternoon, which is probably a busy time. It was also probably busy because it is such a good dealership.The price was reasonable, and the car is great so far (though I've only had it for about two hours). Overall, I highly recommend DCH Academy Honda and the aforementioned salespeople.

This was a wonderful car buying experience! Khalil and Hussain were both extremely friendly, helpful, knowledgable, curteous, and patient. The showroom was clean, the waiting area was well stocked with refreshments, and all dealership employees were eager to help with even the smallest request. The deal we stuck was mutually amicable (of course I would have liked a few more bucks off the bottom line, but then who wouldn't?), the car is beautiful, and I feel like I made a good deal. Khalil and Hussain were both MORE than patient in explaining all the options, and they were helpful in making suggestions about the right choices for me. All in all, great experience, and I would recommend Khalil's friendly professionalism to anyone looking for a Honda.Many thanks!Michael PeragalloKeyport, NJ

Hello, my name is Elena Shirman and I just bought a car with a help of Michael Serra. He was terrific!!! I don't like when dealers put pressure on me and he never did. He answered all my questions, showed me exact numbers(by the way, the other dealer refused doing this)before I made any commitments. He is professional and works fast. Thank you, Michael, I would recommend you to anyone.

When it came time for me to buy a new car, I was pretty skeptical. As a young, first-time car buyer I was worried I would get taken advantage of due to my lack of knowledge of the whole "car-buying" experience. So, I brought my dad along with me and decided to go to DCH Academy Honda. As soon as we walked through the door, all my worries were gone.After being greeted by the receptionist my father and I began wandering around the sales floor. In a matter of seconds we were kindly greeted by Michael. He asked what I was interested in and we immediately walked out onto the lot and started looking at 2009 Civic's. I was specifically looking for a black or dark blue coupe, both of which he didn't have on the lot but assured me that he would be able to get it for me. With that said, we went inside and started talking numbers.When we sat down, Mike asked me how much I was looking to spend and how much I was able to put down. Being a full-time college student and only working part-time, it wasn't much, but he gave his all to get my payments down to where I could afford it. My father had him running back and forth to his manager with different deals and possibilities, but Mike never gave off any bad vibes. He actually made my father and I laugh and my experience dealing with him was very, very enjoyable. I could say it was even 'fun'. He even brought me a cupcake that one of his co-workers had made and offered my dad a drink while we were waiting for the banks approval. Once the deal was made, not only was I ecstatic that I was able to get the car, but also amazed at what a great experience I had with Mike. I could tell that my satisfaction and what I wanted were his number one priority, and he tried his hardest to do what he could in order for me to go home with a new car. He never tried to push the sale on me and was very respectful. Even though it took a few days for everything to be finalized (I did end up needing a co-signer, so finding a time where my mom & I could both be there was a challenge) my experience at DCH Academy Honda was wonderful. I will reccomend & purchase from Mike again without any hesitation.

Khalil is the only saleman that I'm comfortable with. I have purchased numerous cars in the past and I have grown to hate car dealers. Khalil so far,is the only salesman i feal is a person first and a car saleman second. He has gained my trust, which is a dificult thing to do! I have purchased two vehicles w/Khalil and would purchase again with him.

I visited DCH Academy Honda on the advice of a friend who had purchased a car there and had a good experience. I was looking to lease an Accord and this was the first dealer I visited. Khalil approached me and asked if he could help me and when I told him I would like to see an 09 Accord EX-L, he had one brought around and we were test driving the car in a matter of minutes. He was pleasant without being pushy and let me steer the conversation. When I told him I'd like to have a price quote, he offered to price the car for me under both options and let me decide which I would like unlike some dealers that try to pin you down to whether you are buying or leasing before quoting. Our negotiations were smooth and pleasant and he was accepting of my price research which allowed us to agree on a price and close a deal.Dmitri in the business office was just as pleasant and transparent about the available lease accessories and pricing and was accepting of my choices without trying to sell me on what I rejected. The paperwork went quickly.The other staff people in the showroom were likewise friendly and pleasant.All in all, this was a positive car-shopping experience and I would recommend DCH Academy Honda.

Erich Tam and the staff here were great to work with. Very friendly and helpful. Our family has purchased six Honda's from them and intend to purchase more in the years to come. They also gave us a good price compared to other dealers. When I called for a price comparison Erich Tam was extremely prompt and even asked what could he do to earn additional business from us. Good Job Erich. Thanks.

What a pleasure it was dealing with everyone at this dealership. I was helping a friend buy his first new vehicle a Honda CRV-EX. From the very first contact through the internet by Lauren, to the meeting with salesman Paul, and the F&I manager Dmitri, this dealership is professional and absolutely top of the line. The price was excellent, they didn't try and add on fees or a hard sell on extras, and we were out the door in two hours.We came over from Staten Island to purchase the vehicle after a lousy experience at Honda of Staten Island, and couldn't be more happy that we did.

I never felt so welcomed from the moment I walked in. I was introduced to Khalil by the lady at the desk. I told him I was looking for a Honda Civic DX VP. He told me that they didn't have it at the store, but they had the LX and we could take it out for a test ride. Now, what sets Khalil apart from other sales representatives is his professionlism, hospitality, and service. He immediately got the keys to the car and we took it out for a test ride. I fell in love with the car. After we got back, I told him I liked the car and he offered me a competitive price which I could not turn down. From the time I saw the car to the time I got the keys, an hour passed. I was very pleased with the fast service and how comfortable Khalil made me feel during the entire process.After I got the keys, I was introduced to the business manager, Li Xinru. She was very friendly. I filled out some additional paperwork which took about half an hour. Then I was ready to drive home with my new car.If you are thinking about buying a honda, I highly recommend you go to this dealership and see Khalil. The entire process was quick, comfortable, and very pleasing.Post Purchase Experience: I love my car. Runs great. Saves a lot money on fuel.

Let me start by saying originaly I went David Micheal Honda of Freehold {in August}... having previously purchased an '03 CRV. I was interested in an '09 Fit, met with a sales rep. who told me the prices for the '09 had not been set yet, but he would email or call me when the prices were in. After all he wanted to keep me "in the family." Well it must be a disfunctional family cause I never heard a peep from them. So I moved on to DCH Academy Honda, best move I ever made. Went on their web site and within a day recieved responce from Lauren and we set up a day for me to come in, not so hard right? I showed up and met Audi at the customer service desk, super frendly and efficent, not so hard right? She called Lauren for me who took me to Elcris who would be my sales rep. Great guy, knows his stuff and pleasent, and within 45 min. we had the deal done. The car had to be orded and would take three or four weeks..no problem. Because of the wait they through in free wheel locks. All the time I was keep up to date via emails and phones calls from Lauren and Elcis, I mean how hard is this to do right? When it arrived I came in and the met with Lilly {the money girl} who is ALSO friendly and professional. Let me also mention Rich Garcia the sales manager who was a great guy. Bottom line... go here. Giving up $$$ is never a fun experiece but it should be as pleasent as possible. Highly recommened.

The buying experience at DCH Academy Honda was excellent and the price was very competitive. From the very beginning, Lauren, the internet sales, always answered our questions promptly and properly. Her attractive offer led us to visit the store after a thorough online research. Erich Tam, the sales consultant, greeted us at the store and gave us a comprehensive introduction of the car that we were interested, and even helped us analyze the pros and cons of buying this vehicle. Hes one of the most friendly and professional car sales we ever met and definitely influenced our decision of buying at DCH Academy Honda in a positive way. We were also impressed by his consistently high service standard throughout the whole process, from pre-sales to post-sales. Actually everyone we met at DCH was friendly and helpful. Currently were very happy with our new car and have already recommended this dealer to our friends.

We researched different cars and decided the Accord was what we wanted so we went to 3 or 4 dealerships to test drive and get info and pricing.As soon as we entered DCH Academy we were greated in a friendly manner and directed to Michael Serra. Michael was extremely knowledgeable of the different models, not pushy in his sales pitch, and very professional. We're very tough and savvy negotiators and Michael was willing to work with us until we got the package we wanted.When we picked up the car it was in excellent condition, as we have had experiences in the past when the delivered car was dirty and we walked away from the deal. We also worked with Lily the finance manager and she was very friendly and cooperative. The manager, Ruben Arcila was also very pleasant to deal with and thanked us personnally for our business. We love our new Accord and are thinking of getting another one when our other leased cars (Civic & Acura TSX) come off lease.We also worked with Lily

Very professional ogranization. Mark assisted me online to find the car and price I was looking for (2009 Civic Sedan MT/Nav). Paul Ritter handled the car demonstration and administrative aspects of purchasing the carin a most thorough,professional and comfortable manner. I was treated vey well by all the employees at this dealership from the moment I walked in the door until I drove home with my new car. Anyone considering a Honda purchase, would be well advised to visit this dealership. I was very impressed and very grateful to this dealership for making my new car purchase a wonderful and exciting experience. I love my Honda!!!

my husband and i went to this dealership and found it was professional, warm and easy to buy from . i called some dealerships for prices on the phone. this was new to me, in the past you had to go to a bunch of dealerships. we did visit three. lauren gave me a nice reasonable price for a 2008 accord. when we came in the next day we were greeted with friendliness and directed to stephen who is very nice. rene came over as well and discussed things with us, he is also very nice. we did purchase the car and when we came back for it a couple of days later, stephen took the time to show me everything in the car, how to work all the controls. in the past other dealerships just said here is the manual, so i liked this as well.this was a grest experence for us, especially since we were treated so horribly at honda universe in lakewood. dch is a great choice!!!!!!!!!!!

One of my friends from work brought her car at DCH Academy Honda and told me what great service they provide. I use to have a Chevy Trailbrazer but wanted to change to Honda. When my friend told me about the EXCELLENT service I drove from Elmwwod Park, NJ to Old Bridge, NJ to get my new car. I live maybe 3 miles from Paramus Honda but I would Take the drive again ANYTIME just because of the GREAT SERVICE.

We came to DCH as a referral from my sister-in-law who recently purchased a CRV. Upon arriving mid afternoon, we received an overwhelming amount of hospitality from one of your sales persons, Khalil Quraishi. He offered and provided drinks to all, as well as candy & snacks to our children. Based on the EXCELLENT service we received from Khalil, we felt confident we had chosen the "right" dealership for our family, even though we live in New York. We spent several hours the first day, and several more on our second trip back with our trade-in car. It should be noted that Khalil's professionalism and hospitality far exceeded our expectations, from the moment we walked in until the moment he escorted us to our new Honda and even went that extra mile to put a good luck dollar bill in our new car. As far as we are concerned, we will recommend to your dealership any future Honda shoppers!

After debating about which of three possible SUV brands to buy, I decided on the Honda due to reputation and my personal needs. I drove to DCH Academy Honda in Old Bridge first and met salesperson Michael Serra who was friendly,genuine and took the time to talk about and show me the Honda Pilot and various models. I'm not the easiest person to sell to and I always do my homework, especially with large purchases - and of course I'm looking to get a car at a great price. Michael did not sway me toward any particular model and let me make my own decision (I'm not easily swayed anyway). After looking at some models I decided on the premium 2009 Pilot EXL with rear entertainment and moon roof.Next up was the bargaining table, I was upfront about paying cash and looking for their best price and Mike came back with a very competitive price on his first try. I then mentioned their ad in the paper for complimentary oil changes, I was told that they would honor the offer and they also offered me the option to select one of two other options, both of similar value to the oil changes. I told Mike that I would speak with my wife about the car and also decided to visit two other local Honda dealers. I stopped at the one in Freehold and they were just OK and I stopped at the one in Edison NJ. I was in and out of the Edison Honda dealership in 10 minutes as I did not like the atmosphere and the sales people were not friendly. After doing some shopping between brands (including Toyota) and dealers, I decided to return to DCH and speak to Michael and ask him further questions that he and his manager were able to answer more than satisfactory. I liked their friendly - non pushy approach and they did not bash other dealers like I'm used to hearing (I've bought many new cars). During my discussion I managed better terms and a possible trade-in. From there I spoke with Mike and office manager, Rene, and they were willing to work with me on this sale. Rene was also great, very sincere, personal, and he too went above and beyond and did not give me any BS which was appreciated. Both Mike and Rene made me feel good about buying Academy and made me want to buy the Pilot from them. At the end of the day I decided on the Pilot purchase at what I think is a very good price, the financial transaction went very smoothly and even the meeting with Finance manager was very cordial (he presented options and warrantees as part of the process with a "here's what we offer" approach). After the initial deposit, they were flexible about having the car ready when I wanted to pick it up (9AM) and the Pilot was prepped and had a full tank and ready for me upon my arrival. We did a "walk through" with the car and also reviewed some of its features that I was unfamiliar with. I have to say that this car buying experience at DCH Honda was probably the best ever. The sales, financial and even the receptionist made the experience very positive (see my high ratings). I expect the Honda to last many years and would not hesitate to consider a Honda from DCH in Old Bridge and would definitely recommend them without hesitation. John

I just bought my honda civic lx from this dealership. I think lauren was just great, she quoted me the best price on the internet and gave me the breakdown out the door. There was know other dealer that could beat that price. I went to freehold honda and they were rude and would not even come close to this dealers quote. I went to the dealer gave me a great rate to finance my car and I had my car out the door keys in my hands in an hour and 15 minutes. I would highly recomend this dealership and most definetly recomend dealing with Lauren over the internet she was great and a pleasure to meet. LOVE MY NEW CAR...

The sales person was Paul Rittberg - he was very knowledgeable and made our car buying experience a pleasant one. All my needs were met - They went above and beyong....

Maybe the DCH Academy Honda representatives can also address some of the shortcomings and negative feedback provided, instead of simply thanking everyone who posted praises here.We personally had more negative than positive experience with DCH Academy Honda, both in terms of sales and service. This was what happened to us. We went down to DCH and got decent service during pre-sales when we wanted to buy a car. The salesman did describe the car pretty well, allowed us a test drive, showed us the interior of the vehicle and even had the Carfax report. But we wanted to buy a car with keyless entry and the car that the salesman was selling to us didn't have that. So he promised that to install the feature for us as part of the deal. We made the deal at their dealership price (very close to the highest KBB dealership value quoted for the car). I knew that I didn't get a good price, but I didn't mind paying a premium as I had the impression that DCH Academy Honda had excellent pre and after sales service and support. This turned out to be untrue.When we went down to get the keyless entry installed, it was very inconvenient for us as they claimed that they couldn't do the installation on weekends. So we had to take time off on a weekday to go down. Moreover, they told us to leave the car with them for the whole day, so we had to get our own transport back to our office. This was still tolerable. Unfortunately, when we went down (after taking time-off), they made us wait for about an hour before they realized that they had "ordered the wrong parts"! We were upset but we tolerated that. Then they said that we could bring in the car on a Saturday (we could not do that previously but all of a sudden, now we could?!!) and they will install the keyless entry then.On Saturday, yes, you guessed it, they did it again. "Sorry, we ordered the correct parts and the box that came was correct, but the parts in the box were wrong." - that was their explanation. And we were told about this screw-up only after sitting in the waiting lounge for about 4hrs. For all these inconvenience, the sales manager said that they would "compensate" us $150 credits for maintenance services (oil change etc) and get us a rented car for a day while we leave our car with them. Is that compensation a lot? Given a choice, we would rather have a hassle-free installation and spend all those wasted time outside enjoying the summer. And we were pretty sure that we paid more than $150 extra for the car from them, expecting decent service. So that pretty much sums up our experience with DCH Academy Honda.

I purchased a 1998 Honda Civic Dx 3 door hatchback from this person at DCH Honda. I was told the vehicle went through an extensive checklist to make sure it was perfect. The car was less than perfect. David Brown never even checked on the vehicle himself. He is too consumed with sitting in his office, eating lunch and making the buyer sit and wait for him to get done eating. After $2000 worth of work, vehicle is now perfect. Do not deal with Dave Brown or DCH. Go elsewhere. Buyer beware. They are just interested in the sale, not in customer retention.

We just picked up our Brand new Civic Lx from this dealer, we were very skeptical, after reading some reviews, here about them, and visited them because they gave us the lowest price including all fees, they quoted us $15995, and when we asked them about the other charges, they gave us a complete break down in writing via email, another dealer matched their price but his fees were higher, so we went to Academy Honda and met the manager Sunil, who had given us the price on the phone and e mailed it to us, he handed us over to Dan Fisher hwo handled the rest of the transaction, btw, they also included 3yrs/36k miles oil changes in the price. After all was done and we went to thank the manager Sunil, we asked him how was it that there were some bad comments about him here, he explained to us that he likes to make the buying experience easy and hassle free, and when he quotes a price, it is the bottom line, and when people come to the dealership and try to bargain for more and he explains that he did give the best price on the phone and cannot do any better, some customers take that for arrogance, well in todays day and age the price is the easiest part, so we are very happy with our experience at Academy Honda in Oldbridge, and my husband and I are glad we chose them.

This was my second purchase of a new car at this dealership. I spoke with the internet manager Charlie on the phone and he gave me the dealerships best internet price for an 07 Odyessy EXL. I had been researching prices for 3 weeks. There price was within $150 of the lowest I got but I've dealt with them before. I told Charlie I would be there the next morning but he was off that day so he told me to see the sales manager Sunil and tell him the price that he gave me. Sunil varified the price that I had gotten from Charlie and we agreed on the selling price including destination along with all the fees that were quoted to me on the phone. Sunil printed out all the numbers, gave me a copy and gave me over to a saleman named Eric. Eric showed me the car and we took a 10 mile test drive on local and highway roads. Eric explained all the cars features. He wrote the sales agreement up according to the paper the sales manager had given me and I left a deposit. We picked the car up a week later. It was all prepared in and out. We saw the finance guy who gave us the sales pitch for available options such as LOJACK and warrenty ect., no pressure what so ever. We declined all of them. Eric went over the entire car again feature for feature and all the manuals. They gave us a set of wheel locks no charge installed which we didn't ask for. My last experience here was good and this one was even better. I can't speak for their service department as I have no experience with them but in the 2 buys I have made in the last 2 years I have no complaints at all. I always went to the dealership on a weekday morning so as to avoid crowds.

I found the overall process of buying my new Accord at Academy to be very pleasant and professional. After deciding on the model I wanted, I was able to negotiate a fair price for the car without a lot of hassle. The overall closing process, including dealing with the finance person was quick and smooth. Of course, they are obliged to go over additional options with you but saying no is easy with no push back.

I have bought many cars during my lifetime, but this was the most pleasant experience in buying a car that I have ever had. This was due to the fair price given to me as a quote on the 2007 Honda by Mark and the very fair interest rate of 6.19% given to me (due to my good credit score). Also there was no pressure applied by the saleman, and Erich was very pleasant and explained the answers to all my questions and showed me all about the car. He is an asset to the dealership. I would return here for my car checkups, feeling that I am among business people who play fair. No pressure was applied to me during this sale. Thank you all for this experience. I wholeheartedly give my recommendation to this dealership.

I only found out about this site resently so this a purchase I made a year ago but It's a sales experience that someone might want to read. I had never dealt with this dealership before and I asked for an internet quote via Edmund's site from 4 dealers. David Farber from DCH emailed me with a nice price and had the car I wanted. I set up an appointment and met with him. He had the car brought over from their lot for a test drive, no surprises, no change in price as everything was spelled out in the email, price,fees,dmv,taxes ect. . I left a 100 deposit to close the deal and picked the car up the next sat. . The car was ready and maxed out. Naturally the after sale guy tried to sell me extended warrent ect. but no pressure. All and all one of the best buying experiences I ever had. I would definitly look them up again next time.

The people at Academy Honda were very professional, not like most people think about car salesmen. It took them two weeks to get the car I wanted, but during the two weeks they kept me informed about the progress and any problems they encountered. It was a great contrast to Open Road Honda, where I'd first tried to buy my car.I have nothing but good things to say about salesperson Joe Oakley, Mark (internet sales) and salesperson Mike P.I eventually paid $500 less than what I would have paid to Open Road Honda.I would recommend anyone buying a Honda check with Academy Honda first. I would certainly buy another from them if I needed to.

I entered this dealership with all the hate and distaste for dealers that i could possibly have. I had been shopping for a Honda Fit for about two weeks and had been getting a run around by dealers from New Jersey to Staten Island to Long Island. All telling me how popular the car was and that its selling for much more then MSRP. I was not happy nor was i nice. I was going to buy a car that day. and i wasnt going to be messed with. I just wanted the dealer to be fair.William was wonderful. He took great care of us. no run a round - MSRP and that's that. everything went very smooth. UNTIL::: it was time to pay for it. I had financing through capital one. and of course Mr. credit manager came over and he didnt like the check. i was going just walk out at that point. (i already put the insurance on my new car!). i hated this guy! but i calmed down (after giving him a piece of my mind and telling him i didnt trust him)... he came back to me about 1/2 hour later and got me Honda financing with an 8.25 interest rate. to tell you the truth, i still dont believe it! I am still waiting something to go wrong. its like two good to be true.its been three weeks since i bought my fit. i love it. and i thank the guys at Academy for putting up with my distrust. buying this car has been an exausting insulting nightmare. now all the other dealers are calling me to offer me their HOT HOT car for MSRP! guess they didnt sell as many as they thought at 2000 dollars over msrp. greedy greedy dealers.

Joe gave the best quote, online, for my 2005 Accord with Nav. He kept all his promises and even got me a special discount APR for being a new graduate.The finance staff here is the best, extending my payment 6 mos. so that I could get the Hazard coverage.Great team at DCH. Sale was complete in 10 days and the car rides like a dream - and I never get lost.
