My 2008 Nissan Rogue recently got totaled at the beginning of OCT 2024 which put me in the market for a used vehicle to commute to/from work. I searched Facebook Groups and Facebook Marketplace for about 3 weeks when I found2 vehicles I was interested in at this dealership. I called ahead to confirm that the vehicles were both available and came the next morning to inspect/test drive both. Both were Mazda3’s, one a Red 2013 Hatchback and the other a Blue 2014 Sedan and both in the I Grand Touring trim.
They let me test drive both vehicles to include the freeway to get a feel for how they drove and both vehicles were in good mechanical shape. I ended up preferring the Blue Sedan due to it having more features I wanted such as cold A/C, Bluetooth, Backup camera, and blind spot monitoring even though it had about 32,000 more miles on it. Both vehicles were priced fairly according to both Carfax and KBB private party value.
After I made my decision of which one I preferred, we got the paperwork started and I ran to the bank to pay via cashier’s check which they accepted. We then finished signing all the paperwork and they processed everything through the DMV within 4 days with 2 of those days being the weekend. Buying from used dealerships can always be a bit risky as you don’t necessarily know the reputation of the dealership but Ray was amazing to work with and really helped me feel comfortable in buying from this dealership. The process was painless and I had a brand new car, updated registration, and title within 4 days. Would recommend anyone in the market for a decent used vehicle to at least check out Auto Z Hawaii.
