A true family environment with very personable employees. Will work hard and honest to get you the car that you want. I had a very specific car in mind and did not think that they would be able to get it for me but they were. Everyone along the way was more than a pleasure to work with and the manager even reached out and chatted with me making sure that I had been appropriately accommodated. More

Larry H. gave me wonderful information on the specials available and did he very best to ensure I got the car that I wanted. They had to do a dealer trade, but rather than trying to push a different car of on me, Larry was sure I got the exact car that I wanted within my budget. He is kind, knowledgeable, patient, and very mellow. He goes above and beyond to make car buying/leasing as enjoyable a process as possibly possible. I will definitely be referring my friends and family members to this dealership and especially to Larry Henderson. The finance and insurance gal Lori was great and very personable as well. More

Larry was awesome and great at helping make sure it fit my specific needs, both financially and with what I was looking for in a new car. I was recommend to this dealership through a friend who also bought a new Mazda a few years back and every time I came with them to do routine maintenance on their car, the customer service has been top notch. I would highly recommend this dealership. Also, if you can, request Debbie in finance when you are doing your paper work. She is a DOLL! And I LOVE my new Mazda! More

Great experience working with Larry! My car of 15 years finally gave out on me and I was dreading the process of buying a new one. Mainly because I was nervous about making a good decisio My car of 15 years finally gave out on me and I was dreading the process of buying a new one. Mainly because I was nervous about making a good decision considering I tend to hold on to my cars for awhile (as you can see ; ) I was thinking about Honda and Toyota originally but several friends and relatives had suggested I also try Mazda. I read some good reviews online about Tustin Mazda and in particular, Larry Henderson, one of the salesmen there. I walked in very late one night to the dealership and was greeted by Larry, himself, so that was a good sign : ) I can tell you that my experience working with Larry was night and day different from the other experiences I had had at the Honda and Toyota dealerships! I was so relieved! You would never know it was the end of the day because Larry was extremely patient with me with all my questions and took me on a test drive with a few cars even though it was late. I was prepared to be rushed through the process (since I had had that experience at Honda and Toyota) and I was prepared to feel bad about asking a lot of questions. I was also prepared to be pushed to make a decision in one hour (which I never like to do) and I was prepared to get barraged by phone calls starting the next day asking me "what it will take to get me to buy the car today." (I swear every other salesperson had used that exact line with me; ) To my surprise and delight, none of that happened with Larry! Instead I felt like: 1. He actually cared about guiding me to get a car I really liked and that met my needs, no matter which one it was. 2. He totally knew his stuff and patiently took his time explaining the different engines and options I had questions about, 3. I never felt like he was just "trying to reach his numbers" (again another sales tactic I had heard at other dealerships) and that it was my job to get him there! 4. I felt relaxed with him and you could tell he is a really nice, honest guy. After I left, Larry informed me about an upcoming sale where I could save $1,000 on my purchase. He also made sure to stay in contact with me by text to let me know when he would be available in case I wanted to come back in. Just straightforward, helpful, nice and informative without being pushy! Wow - what a breath of fresh air! By the way, I ended up with a car I absolutely love!! I have a feeling this will be my favorite car so far! Funny that I started with wanting a midsize and the Mazda 6's were great too, but when I got in the Mazda 3 GT I loved it! So much fun to drive -- and comfortable! It looks great too! Super sporty, yet still a 4 door -- and I love my leather seats and my Bose stereo! I can't wait to get in my car and drive every day and I've never felt that way before. I also know that if I have questions, Larry will be there for me to answer them and Tustin Mazda even has Taco Tuesdays for explaining any tech questions you have with your car. Bottom line - if you want to actually enjoy the process of buying a car AND end up with a car you love - I would highly suggest going to see Larry Henderson at Tustin Mazda! I'm sure he'll do his best for you too : ) More

The whole experience from beginning to end was so intimidating to me I would end up in tears or just want to leave. Just looking at cars in the lot made me want to run away--always needed to have one of my sons or my brother in law with me through the whole ordeal. Well that all changed when I met Larry Henderson. He was soft-spoken, not pushy. He was supportive and informative. He helped me identify what I wanted from a new car and provided options. Larry answered questions rather than pushing information down my throat. There was no going back and forth to the manager for fake consultations about the selling price. Less than a week after my first visit, I drove off in a beautiful Mazda Cx-3 Hatchback with all the bells and whistles for a price I could afford. I can recommend Larry Henderson with no reservations to anyone interested in a great car buying experience. Thank you Larry and Tustin Mazda. More

Best car dealership we've ever dealt with. My wife and I recently relocated to Irvine, California from Sydney, Australia. We started looking for a car to lease and spent many an hour in car d My wife and I recently relocated to Irvine, California from Sydney, Australia. We started looking for a car to lease and spent many an hour in car dealerships talking to infuriating sales reps trying to sell us everything and anything and not even listening to our needs. All that changed the minute we walked in Tustin Mazda. From the moment you walk in you are greeted warmly by the staff and promptly working with someone to find the car you NEED, not the one THEY want to sell you! We worked with Larry Henderson and he is just the best! Personable, knowledge and just an awesome guy to deal with. He helped us choose the right car for us and never did we feel pressured or that we were being "sold to." Eight months later we needed a second car and because of the experience we had with Larry, went straight back to him and got our second car. We cannot speak highly enough of Tustin Mazda as a whole and particularly of Larry who as I mentioned before is the best I've encountered. You will not be dissaponted with your experience at Tustin Mazda.....especially if you ask for Larry! Chris and Nancy More
