Honestly in this day and age I don’t know how people like Joseph Cannizzaro exist. I first came to this dealership in November desperate to get a leased car during the pandemic. I decided to go with Acura ov Joseph Cannizzaro exist. I first came to this dealership in November desperate to get a leased car during the pandemic. I decided to go with Acura over my initial choice of BMW, Lexus or Benz because of Salesman Rocky who was very straight forward, patient, and a gentleman. Everything went smoothly, but the finance salesman who finished up with me is a discriminatory man with racist tendencies if you will. I don’t know the man from a hole in a wall, but to speak down to educated individuals who are going to spend their hard earned money at a dealership is disgusting. Dealers at the time needed customers more than us customers needed to buy a car. But he treated me like I was the trash outside: dismissed all of my concerns, asked me very personal questions about finances, and basically could care less about my overall experience. He is a pathetic human being, you need to get him out! I told many individuals to never purchase a car ever from there because of him! He is bad for business! More

Excellent service and great experience buying our TLX from Island Acura. Bobby G was the best. He made time to FaceTime a virtual tour of the car on a Tuesday, we test drove Friday and took the car hom from Island Acura. Bobby G was the best.

Came into Island Acura to look at a 2018 Lexus IS 300 that someone traded in they had for sale on their website, the only Lexus on the lot and not even an Acura product. Got an unbelievable price on it that someone traded in they had for sale on their website, the only Lexus on the lot and not even an Acura product. Got an unbelievable price on it for the year and mileage! The sales Rep Rocky and customer service rep Drew were excellent! They even brought me to drop off my rental around the corner to save me another 10 hour roundtrip drive back down to Long Island and Joe did the financing for me very quickly. BEST DEALER EXPERIENCE I HAVE EVER HAD PERSONALLY and I have had quite few. I wasn't pestered for extended warranties and extra garbage I didnt want, car price with tax and tags...THATS IT! All around great service and got a great car!...10 out of 10 experience....I would drive the 5 hours again in a heartbeat!... More

The best car buying experience I have ever had in my last 30 years of buying cars. 1.) No pressure and 2.) No hassle. Bob "Gio" was a class act. He really tried to understand what our need was in terms of a 30 years of buying cars. 1.) No pressure and 2.) No hassle. Bob "Gio" was a class act. He really tried to understand what our need was in terms of a car, and then made, what I felt was, unbiased recommendations leaving us to choose. Was very gracious and generous with his time and sharing his thoughts and views on various options. And, yes he did work with us to accommodate into what we could afford explaining pros and cons. Classy and gentleman. Usually at the close (finance, when you sign on a million documents) is when dealers in general try to push through a million cr@p that is overpriced and does not make sense and do it in a breakneck rush that you can not think. No such hassle here. Clearly explained 3 or 4 offerings without making any recommendations, just clarifying over and over again "entirely up to you." No pushy salesmanship. Overall, Island Acura is something I would highly recommend visiting. From the receptionists - alternating between two ladies every time we went in there - both of whom were very pleasant and left you alone, they have a very relaxed environment where the potential customer is given space to explore, think and deliberate. They do a good job of distinguishing themselves from the stereotypes of a prototypical car-dealer/dealership. If they can't help with your budget, they will not impose on you a financial burden you can't or don't want to take on. Class all around. Bob knows Acura - I think the Instruction manual is his bedtime reading. More

Rocky and Joe were great. Buying a car during COVID was not fun, but Rocky made it super easy. He was easy to reach via phone and email and was more than helpful with all of our needs.

The easiest car dealership I have ever worked with. Bob "Gio" is more a matchmaker than a salesman. No pressure - just assistance. My second RDX from Island Acura.
