-Service: 4
-Sales: 4 Pretty friendly, especially considering its in Philadelphia. The salesman were all pretty motivated, so it isnt really one of those "**** you dont waste my time" places...they want to sell you a car.
-Parts: 4 Actually pretty knowledgeable. Descriptions of an insignificant part dont take forever, the parts guys all seem to have experience in service as well. They dont have an attitude, and aren't unfriendly. Prices are about average.

Pohanka Acura:
-Parts: 1 - Guy argued with me about Integras not having any OEM kits. Then proceeded to give me a wrong part, and had a total attitude...AND charged list price. ********.
-Sales: 1 - Worst sales experience of my life. Sold a car right out from under me when I went in to sign the papers on a deal we had agreed upon the night before. Because someone offered a couple hundred more, and never notified me. Awful. The ******* name was "Shams" for christs sake.

-Service: 3
-Bodyshop: 5
-Sales: No experience

"Service is good depending on who you get. My guy was sick for 2 days and my car sat on the lot for 2 days b/c no one else could help me. One service guy (not mine) was quite the a$$ hole for some reason. Perhaps he was about to retire. The body shop was fantastic. Kept me updated on the status of the car via e-mail. Did a great wash too after my deer damage got fixed. Overall = pretty good."

Radley Acura
-Sales: 5. They were the only people I could find who would sell the ITR under $24,500. Extremely nice sales rep.
-Parts: 5 - What other parts counters stay open past midnight? Awesome. Who cares about prices and service when you can go in at 11PM to get a desperately needed part.

-Service: 3
-Bodyshop: No experience
-Sales: No Experience
"Took my car in to get raddling noise inspected. They replaced the A-pipe right away, with no hassles. The service team is efficient. The place is crowded and needs a facelift though."

-Sales: 4 (easy to deal with, no pressure)
-Parts: 4

Baranco Acura, GA
Parts: 5 (Len ownz)

Acura of Middletown, NY
Sales: n/a
Service: 3(my sisters RSX service schedule)
Parts: 2(gave me a hard time about RS door handles because I didnt have part #)

Doesnt really apply here, but Ive never been to a dealer for my R. And now that Im much more familiar with the inner workings of the car, and have H-T and Helms as a reference, and have had overall crappy relations with dealerships in the past, I dont think Ill ever go to ANY dealer again(unless I get a new car that needs possible warranty work).

Baranco Acura
Service 5+ (TJ and HP rock!)
parts 5+ (well, Len works there but we won't hold that against them)
Sales haven't tried but recommend them to everyone based on how they're run
All in all they get my vote for best damn dealership period


Ed Voyles Acura
Sales 5 (I bought my ITR there and was treated very well )
Service 5 (I used them before I found out about H-t and Barnaco and was always treated well and never worried about my car being abused or anything)
Parts 3 (Very nice people but don't give you any type of discount so you're paying full price for everything)
If Baranco didn't exist I would go to Voyles for all stuff I wouldn't do myself and would order parts online

Falls Church, Va:
Radley Acura
Sales: 5. They were the only people I could find who would sell the ITR under $24,500. Extremely nice sales rep.

Richmond, Va:
Crown Acura
-Service: 4. (They are nice, but understaffed there. I also have had them make excuses why they couldn't fix problems before, but other than that I would recommend them.)

In Toronto, Sure many other T.O. owners will likely chime in, we DO have some BAD dealers here (In the G.T.A.) from what I've heard...but I've been pretty happy with this one:

Sherway, Toronto, Ontario, Canada
Sherway Acura
Sales: 5 Gave us a deal on a couple of items...
Service: 4 Have good inside connections...
Parts: 4 Cost plus 10%...not bad

Also have good connections with another local Acura dealer which will go un-named, in general I don't have any trouble at all with the GTA (Greater Toronto Area) Acura dealers I've dealt with...

Now as for Honda dealers, the one I visit here locally IS:
Parts: -999
Service: -2
Just go there out of sheer Necessity!!!! I DON'T run NAPA, UAP, AutoPro, Canadian Tire Aftermarket ****!!!!
I hear Formula and #7 Honda are excellent though...


In General, sounds as if Honda/Acura could STILL do a LOT to improve their after sales/service image...
