Just bought my 3rd truck from Jody Lowe and my 1st from Goodwins. As always Jody did a great job finding and selling me the truck I was looking for and Lori did a great job making the world of finance a pleasure! Thanks again!

Just bought a 2015 Colorado! Everything was so straight-forward and realistic. My salesman was a Dave Searles & Ryan! They were great and was a no pressure environment. I would def. recommend Goodwin Motor Group.

This was my first time buying a vehicle at Goodwin Motors in Brunswick, and the experience was great right from the start! I saw the vehicle online and inquired about it through their website. I spoke with a lovely young woman, Jessica, who was able to get the car moved to Brunswick for me from another location the same day we spoke! This made a huge difference for me since I live very close to the Brunswick dealership. When I got to the store I met Ryan James, who I believe was the manager. He was wonderful! He set me up with a salesmen, Dave Searles. Dave was great as well! He went over the whole vehicle with me and even assisted me on the test drive. They let me drive the car home to show my husband, which I also really appreciated! They cleaned the vehicle, did paperwork, and even helped me get my insurance set up. All very quickly I might add! A wonderful experience - I would recommend them to anyone!

My dad was a car salesperson for over 40 years and my mother has worked in auto auctions for over 20 so I am no novice when it comes to car shopping and buying. My husband and I did research ahead of time online and came prepared for a deal on a specific car with minimal haggling or searching. Dave Searles was our salesperson and got to work straight away- no showing us other cars, no upsales, no funny business. Our only complaint was that we wish we had gotten more for our trade but that was limited by our car's age and we didn't want to wait to sell it privately. If you know what you want and don't want a bunch of extra speeches and upsells, Dave is great.

Love Goodwin, love our salesman Jody. Makes the car purchasing process a pleasure. Feel like I get the white glove treatment, and will come back!

Jody was very helpful and made my purchasing experience a pleasure. I always enjoy working with Goodwins Chevrolet for all my vehicle needs, service or purchase.

i walked into goodwins today hoping to buy a truck i met Dave Searles in the parking lot he introduced himself and was very professional. all the way from his appearance to his attitude he was very friendly. he had a couple customers that he was juggling between but made sure everyone got adequate attention he helped me immensely with my wanting to impulse buy he talked to me about different options and worked with his office very well to find me something that would fit my needs and my wallet. this was the greatest experience i have ever had at a car dealership.. i believe dave searles should receive a raise/bonus for the way he works.i am completely satisfied with my 2015 chevy sonic and i plan to continue to do business with goodwin motors in the future

We had a great experience! We came to the dealership to trade in our vehicle. Goodwin's listened to our needs and put us in perfect vehicle. We were in and out the door!

What a great experience. It was totally hassle free and the offer they made me could not be touched by other dealerships. The staff was outstanding and non- pressuring. The facilities are great and the fact that we already have our vehicles serviced at there top notch service department is a plus as well. Our Sales person Jody Lowe was just great - knowledgeable about the product, friendly and went the extra mile to ensure we got what we want.

Seeking a Truck

I headed down to Goodwins Chevy to look at a used truck but ended up leasing a 2015 Silverado instead. I was so impressed and pleased from the moment I entered the showroom. Mark was above and beyond helpful and set up us up with Evan Paione who did a thorough job explaining our lease options and was masterful in his delivery of the features of the truck. He went out of his way to pull up two trucks to do a side by side comparison. Mark and Evan made us feel at ease in our buying process and I would highly recommend a visit to this dealership.

I have bought two Mazda's from Evan. He has been super helpful, patient, down to earth and fun to work with!! He was able to give me well above blue book trade in value for my car and get me into a payment I was comfortable with. I also would like to give a shout out to Jody who greeted me when I first came onto the lot. He took time to go on the first test drive with me and then called in Evan in once he realized I had purchased my first Mazda from him. I had a very good experience with both of these gentlemen and fun....both have great senses of humor:)!!

I had been looking at several other dealerships before I came to Goodwins and bought my Mazda CX-5. Evan Paione was great and worked with me along the way to make the buying experience easy and not stressful at all. I would recommend him to anyone.

They called me about a Mazda I expressed interest in on their website. I stated I didn't think the sale could happen after a little research I did the day before. Derek advised Mazda has some promotions going on for the vehicle I was looking at and they could work something out. As this is an hour drive for me I expressed the importance of being fairly close on numbers as I didn't want to waste anyone's time. I let them know what I have for a trade in and my price range I was looking for again. He expressed confidence in a possible deal. So the next morning I packed up the family and made the drive. We take a couple of cars out for a test drive and decide we want the car originally interested in. Mind you, we are current Mazda drivers and a fan of the brand. They come back with a number so far off my original price range I knew nothing can be worked out. I stated this to the sales rep who also confirmed my thoughts. I advised the individual of the call I had with Derek. He said "Its Derek's teams job to get people in the door." Needless to say I wasn't happy with that response. Time was wasted and trust was lost. I will not return to this dealership as long as it is their practice to do whatever it takes to get people in the door.

I couldn't have asked for a better buying experience then what I received today at Goodwin's Chevy in Brunswick! Jody Lowe did a fantastic job discussing with me everything that I could possibly need to know about my new truck. He took a genuine interest in meeting and exceeding my needs and ensuring my buying experience was paramount! It's clear that Ryan James has tailored a team that takes pride in themselves and the Goodwin's name! Thanks for everything! I will definitely be coming back for all my future needs and for service!

When I came to look at SUVs Dave Searles came out on the lot and immediately asked if I had any questions. I did not have to wait for anyone or ask someone to look at the SUV. He was an excellent sales representative. He worked with me to educate me on the SUV that I was looking at. When it came down to pricing he was able to work with my budget. He was extremely patient with me while I kept going back and forth on my decision. He answered all my questioned and reassured me that I can come back to him if I have ANY questions. I strongly recommend him and Goodwin's Motor Group.

This is the 2nd Mazda 3 we purchased in a month. Evan Palone is a wonderful laid back sales guy who listens attentively to the customer needs and only suggests when asked for feedback. He is so good we paid his mortgage this month:) Ryan James leads the Goodwin group and his style is reflected within the experience. Had my last Mazda 6 for 10 years and 170,000 miles. Lori in finance made the paperwork process quick and seamless. 5 stars all around and yes we will be servicing our vehicles here.

Just bought a 2015 Colorado at Goodwins Chevrolet. Knowledgeable, competent, helpful and patient, sales representative Dave Searles made a task I have come to dread a truly pleasant experience.

My husband and I was looking at many dealership we got a lot of run around form other places and they didn't seem to go way beyond like Goodwin to find what we wanted in are price range. After try one after another truck it seemed like no hope we was going to find one but Dave Searles didn't give up on us. He found one at their other stores and called us and he promised that it was what we wanted in are price range and it would be there in the am. Well he was right we both fell in love with the truck and bought it. I'll definitely put it this way I wasn't a chevy person and now I won't go anywhere else besides Goodwin to buy a new truck/car

My wife and I visited Goodwin's Chevrolet a few weeks back on a Saturday afternoon. We came in when they had just closed but Sales Manager Ryan James and Salesman Dave Searles stayed late so we could test drive a new Tahoe. We came back during business hours the next Monday and they were able to find us the perfect vehicle with every option we desired. They went above and beyond to get the vehicle from upstate New York! I'd highly recommend Ryan and Dave to anyone. Their customer service is second to none.

Dave Searles sold us our 2014 Chevy Cruze and I must say that my husband and I both had an excellent experience purchasing our new vehicle. Buying a car can be quite stressful, but Dave was with us every step of the way through the entire process. He pushed to get us the best deal possible and came trough for us.

Dave Searles was the dealer who sold me my new Beemer! I went Goodwins to test drive a Lexus and didn't like it. He found the BMW for me and was very patient with me while I figured out my finances. He spent a lot of time and I believe he was very honest with me. I will come back again. Thanks Dave! Steph

Dave Searles is hands down the best car salesman I have ever had the pleasure of working with. I would recommend Goodwin's to anyone looking to buy new or used.

We purchased our vehicle at closing time. Dave Searles was clear and upfront with price and terms of purchase. He answered all questions we had satisfactorily The staff was patient through the process. 3 weeks after the purchase I noticed the vehicle had no radio antenna, I returned to the dealer and they fixed it at no charge.

We just purchased a Mazda6 from Goodwin have to say was one of the best car shopping experiences. Never pushy but there to help - everyone there are professional and courteous. Will definitely go back. Would highly recommend this dealership.

I had recently learned that the repairs to my older car were going to be extensive so I was in the market for a newer vehicle. My son advised me to look for a new car so when we visited Goodwin Chevrolet we already knew that we wanted to look at a 2014 Chevy Equinox. Jody Lowe met us at the door and proceeded to give us all of the information we needed to make a good decision. He was unbelievably patient as we wanted to see how the car handled on the highway at higher speeds. At the end of the day we still had not reached a decision, but Jody persisted and the next day we returned and bought the beautiful red Equinox. I would recommend Jody and Goodwin Chevrolet to anyone.

Came up from NJ to buy a used car. Dave made everything as easy as possible so that when I arrived it was simply a matter of seeing the vehicle and driving it before my ultimate decision of buying. Great experience!

My wife and I decided to trade our two vehicles. We were also thinking about leasing one of the two replacements. We met with Dave Searles and told him about what we were hoping to accomplish. He worked very closely with us and we bought a used Chevy Equinox on one day and leased a Mazdz 6 on the following day. Dave and everyone else at the dealership that we worked with were very professional and easy to deal with. They gave us what I thought was a fair price for our trade-ins and we are quite happy with both transactions.

This is to let you know how happy we are with our purchase of a 2010 Silverado. We had researched the internet, so we knew pretty well what we wanted before we came to the dealership. Our salesman, Bruce Giberson, Was knowledgeable, efficient , and friendly. We even got a chance to speak with Frank, Whom I had not seen in many years. This was unquestionably, the easiest automobile purchase that we have ever made. It has been a pleasure doing business with Goodwin Chevrolet. Peter & Gretel ( Margareta ).

This had to be the best car buying experience my wife and I have ever experienced. It was the fist time that we didn't have a sales rep hovering over us pressuring us to buy! We showed up late on a Saturday just as they were closing up. Our sales rep Dave Searles asked if he could help us, and we told him that we were just looking. He asked what type of car we were shopping for and showed us what they had on hand. He apologized that we couldn't get into the cars because they were closed for the weekend. Never the less he stayed and answered all our questions. He gave me his card and asked if he could call us on Monday. I was reluctant to give him our number because we had been hounded by other dealerships for weeks. He excepted our wishes and didn't pressure us. That was a big plus for us. We returned that Monday and ended up buying a car. We were so pleased with the service and professionalism. We mentioned that our son was looking for a van. Told him what he wanted and he happened to have one on the lot. I Called my son and he made a second sale the same night.

I loved this dealership. I had tried out many others in Brunswick, Maine and I was not happy with their service. Goodwin Chevrolet Mazda dealer was wonderful. They helped get me the right car for my needs and my budget. The process was easy and they walked me through each step. They helped me set up my onstar, figure out my manual driving options and my added safety features. I highly recommend this dealership to anyone looking to buy a new or used car!

my wife and I have done business with goodwins in the past but rarely with their service dept. I brought my wifes van in to have it looked at for a starting problem.I spoke with a guy named rick who assured me they would look at the vehicle and call me with an estimate the same day.. well a couple of hours later rick did call me and told me the bad news that my wifes van needed a couple of thousand dollars worth of work. it needed a new fuel pump and a lower intake manifold gasket. I thanked rick for the estimate but decided it just was'nt worth fixing for that amount, which I thought was extremely high. so the next day me and my wife went down to pick up the vehicle and to purchase a preowned vehicle we had seen on line at the dealership. Here's where the problem started, I spoke with a service writer about picking up the van and was completely taken off guard when he told me that there was a charge of about $150.00 for looking at the van. That to me is highway robbery, being a certified mechanic myself I know that time was involved, but $150.00 and then not fully explaining this charge before hand is to me dishonest. the service writer rick knew that i was clearly upset but did nothing than say " well time cost money". needless to say we did not buy that vehicle from goodwins, I did call the dealership after getting home and spoke with their service manager chris who promptly agreed to refund some of the money via a check which I do appreciate. but unfortunately sometimes you only have one chance to make a first good impression. After explaining this to my neighbor who was also going to go down an get a truck from goodwins he also decided to purchase from another dealership. My family has purchased several vehicles from goodwins, but from now on we will no longer do any business with them , dishonesty and price gouging is something that I will not tolerate as a working man. This dealership should be trying to help people during this recession not trying to rip them off. buy elsewhere and definitely get your service elsewhere. there still are some honest dealerships out there unfortunately this is not one of them.
