Fred and Nick are the best! We were looking for a safe and reliable car for my son. I have an Accord for twenty years and an Odyssey for fourteen years, of course a Honda is one We were looking for a safe and reliable car for my son. I have an Accord for twenty years and an Odyssey for fourteen years, of course a Honda is one of our choices. My wife is a Toyota lady; she drove her (previous) Corolla for more than twenty years; and if not because of getting hit by someone, she would have been driving the same car now. Yes, Corolla got on our list as an option too. We visited a Toyota dealer locally and the sales person really made my wife totally forgot about the car she loved so much for so many years. Without too much hesitation we were checking out the Honda dealers here. I took my son to Valley Honda Saturday without preparing to buy a car at all; we just liked to see if my son would like a Honda. Comparing Civic to Corolla, he liked the Honda. However, the most important thing is that we run into Fred. Fred had treated my 16 years old as an adult, and he provided a service without pushing for a sale. I also let Fred know what we were looking for and he listened sincerely and worked with us to find a best car selection for us. Before we left on Saturday I asked for the best offer, and Fred had done a decent job working with Nick to come out a very fair price on a Civic. Since we had scheduled an appointment (and didn't bring a checkbook with me) we had to leave the dealership (without a Civic); Fred and Nick understood, no hard feeling - they didn't push. They provided an excellent service to a customer without a price tag attached to it. Back to home then we eventually found time to review the offer; it is a fair and square pricing. Fred and Nick didn't play any sale trick we had experienced before when buying a car. On Monday I called up Fred and then we went through the paper work; Fred treated my wife well patiently and answered her questions about the car. He did a decent job on demoing a lot of new fancy stuff coming with the car for us (remember - we didn't buy any single car for more than ten years, we didn't know too much about the new technology on a car now). Fred had done extreme good job in this category. Nick is excellent too; he stopped by and thanked us for the business. And more than that, he and Fred gave us a good picture on how the Valley Honda runs its business. It is really impressive that the dealership owner has a vision and a strong leadership to make Valley Honda one of best places to purchase a car. Overall, it is a very pleasant experience to work with Fred and Nick. They are the best sales people we dealt with when we came to buying a new. You have to see them yourself in person and enjoy the experience of buying a car from them. I can not wait to refer Fred and Nick to all of my friends for purchasing a car. More

Can't imagine a better car buying experience This past summer I purchased a used Subaru Forrester because I wanted something different and all wheel drive after having owned for older Honda is. This past summer I purchased a used Subaru Forrester because I wanted something different and all wheel drive after having owned for older Honda is. Sure enough, the Forrester was nothing but a money pit. My cousin recommended I go to Valley Honda and my experience was fantastic. I walked in the door and was approached by Fred Sims in a very respectful and friendly way. I knew I wanted to be picky. I wanted something that had a decent amount of cargo space, not many miles, and something that would be reliable. I looked at a couple used CRV's and an accord. However, the last thing that I drove was the new 2017 civic hatchback and I was immediately in love with it. Fred told me that he wanted me to buy the car that I really wanted. He was not pushy at any point, but always made me feel like I was being listened to. I ended up buying the civic hatchback and am extremely happy with the car and my car buying experience. I bought a warranty with which I am very happy and I'm excited to own a car knowing that I am the first person to take care of it. More

We d Just purchased a new CRV from Fred last week. He was great! Was very knowledgable about the vehicle and was very patient even though we were not! We drove the car and had to leave due to work constraints. Was able to call him within the hour and get the deal done the same day. He took the car off the showroom floor for me and set up a time to come in. The purchasing process was smooth and easy. We love the car and thank you again Valley Honda, especially Fred Sims! More

Wow, I was floored, that's when I knew that I was in the right place. Everyone was friendly. Thanks Fred for making me feel special and selling me my CR-V. Thanks for being so awesome! More
