"Painless Experience"
I just purchased a Honda CR-V EX this past Friday. My salesperson Robert made this experience fast, and pain free . He was friendly, respectful and knowledgeable. Honestly every employee I encountered that afternoon were courteous and seemed to really enjoy their job. I will definitely recommend Cardinal Honda to friends
"Recall For Airbag"
We now own two Honda CRV and from the first experience with Cardinal Honda we have been very pleased customers. Our 2006 was recalled for an Airbag matter and when arrive the service department was very accommodating and stated would take approximately 2 hours and then offered me a car for the day which I have never had with other dealerships. Our service rep Mark was very happy to help where he could and explains all about the car before leaving the lot. I would recommend this dealership to anyone who asked in future endeavors of a car dealership. VERY SATISFIED ¿
"Ive Never Felt So Belittled By A Business. Ever."
The salesperson I spoke with seemed friendly when we met in person, but he was rude to me when I told him that I couldnt part with my money for the prices they offered. When he told me today about a new car on the lot he thought I might be interested in, I told him I wasnt interested because the mileage was too high in my opinion for the price. He told me "were the experts". While I appreciate that they may be "experts" on their inventory I dont appreciate being belittled when I politely declined their offer. Before I came to Cardinal, Id heard that they were rude and difficult to work with by several, unrelated parties, but I had no idea that they could be so rude and belittling to someone whos trying to spend tens of thousands of their hard earned money wisely.
"Best Car Buying Experience I Have Ever Had!"
If you want an easy and pleasurable car buying experience, Cardinal Honda is the place to go. Kenny, the sales associate, did a fantastic job in searching the inventory for me and finding me a handful of cars that would fit my needs. As we test drove a few different models he helped me narrow it down to the Civic LX that I ended up buying, and did so in a non aggressive/low pressure manor. After I found the car and was certain it was the right choice, Chris the business manager, helped tailor its financing. The whole process was easy, and I felt very comfortable with everyone working on getting me into a new car at this dealership. I would highly recommend Cardinal Honda to anyone searching for a new or used car!
"Bob Guffey & Cardinal Honda"
I would like to than the folks at Cardinal Honda for employing such a professional, friendly, family oriented staff!~ Especially to my sales representative, Bob Guffey. From the moment I arrived at Cardinal Honda I felt like Ive been there before by the way I was greeted. Im a shopper, but after visiting Cardinal Honda I was convinced this was a one stop shop. On my second trip with my wife and two kids, it even got better. This was such an easy buying experience that it is had to capture all the bood in one written review. Bobs patience and demeanor are above merit. I feel as though he became part of our family. He even spent time with my two young children while my wife and I spoke in private about the wonderful vehicles we saw and test drove. At the end of the evening we purchased our new Honda CR-V and love it! The final experience with the Business Manager, Chris, was seamless and smooth. In no time I was on my way in my new vehicle and truly loving life. I plan on coming back for their next free luncheon to promote this superb dealership.
"Perfect And Pleasant Experience"
Today we purchased our first Honda and a family car for our growing family. Robert was our sales man and he was fantastic. Never made us feel pushed or rushed. It was just a truly enjoyable experience and we love our new 2016 CRV EX! Thank you Robert!
"Cardinal Honda / Peter Schmidt Were Awesome!"
I purchased a 2016 Honda Pilot a few weeks ago from Peter Schmidt at Cardinal Honda in Groton, CT. This dealership is amazing - they are so professional and easy to work with. Excellent communications, no pressure atmosphere, every person I dealt with was very professional and great to work with. The facility itself is beautiful and comfortable (dont make you feel pressured like some dealerships). Its well run and everyone is very knowledgeable with their portion of the transaction. They are very fair with trade-ins and kept in touch throughout the process. I felt like part of their family when I was done. This was my 3rd purchase using this dealership and I highly recommend them to anyone in that area, or willing to drive to work with a good dealer! (We do - we drive an hour to work with them - and every bit of it is worth it!!!) Ask for Peter Schmidt too - he was super to work with. My first experience working with Pete.
"Many Thanks To Robert Cushman, Our Car Salesman!"
My husband and I had an excellent experience at Cardinal Honda in Groton, CT. Everyone we met was very courteous and polite. In particular, our salesman Robert Cushman, Jr. was wonderful. Mr. Cushman is very knowledgeable about the product he sells and his style of selling is one that makes the buyer comfortable and at ease. He patiently answered all of our questions and explained all of the controls in great detail. There was no hard sell or pressure. He was friendly, informative and professional. He brings honesty and integrity to his profession! We will gladly recommend anyone looking for a new or used car to go to Cardinal Honda in Groton, CT and ask for Robert Cushman, Jr. He is an honest salesman!
"Great New Car Buying Experience"
I recently purchased a new Accord at Cardinal Honda. The "clear and simple" price (no negotiation) was very reasonable and compared favorably with all regional comparisons. The sales staff is very professional, cusotmer-focused and the buying experience is low-pressure and comfortable. They didnt have the model/color I wanted on the lot, but they were able to locate one very quickly. They make the entire process very easy. If you are looking to buy a honda in Southeastern, CT, you should definately visit this dealership.
"What A Pleasure!"
I have always hated dealing with the "dreaded car salesman" until I met Peter Schmidt. He was very knowledgeable, very patient with showing me the accessories on my new vehicle, and most of all he was not pushy. He is a true asset to Cardinal Honda. I would recommend him to anyone. Recently he helped our daughter with her new vehicle and again it was a nice smooth transition. Thank you Peter......it is a pleasure dealing with you .......I give you an A+!
"Great Dealer Experience"
We have bought 3 cars in the last 3 years and we only deal with Peter Schmidt from Cardinal Honda . He is second to none in his knowledge of the Honda product and he makes the car buying process very stress free. My wife is looking to purchase another Honda this summer and we will definitely use Peter Schmidt as our Dealer.
"I Love My Civic!"
I had a great experience at Cardnial Honda. Eric, my salesperson, got me into a Honda Civic even though I was looking for an SUV. After my test drive, I immediately knew I had to have a Civic! Eric was very nice and informative. I never felt pressured. So, I was already sold when Jeff Gimmick gave me a tutorial on gas mileage and what a difference from the SUVs I have always driven in the past. This was a huge part of why I bought this car. Good job Jeff! This great car practically pays for itself. In addition, it has great pick up, smooth ride, cool digital dash board and looks great! Chris, the financial manager sealed the deal and really made the process painless. That same day, my son and I received a very nice send off by the entire staff at Cardnial Honda and I drove away in my new Civic! Great crew, great car. I would highly recommend this dealership.
"Eric Kao Is The Best Car Salesman Ever!!"
My family purchased a certified pre owned minivan from Cardinal Honda. Eric Kao was so great to work with he held the minivan for us while we tried to work with a less than dependable buyer for my husbands Harley. In the end the buyer for the motorcycle neglected to show up to purchase the bike after about 3 weeks of back and forth. My husband went to Cardinal explained what happened and Jeff from Cardinal ended up taking it as a trade-in so we could purchase our new family vehicle. Everyone at Cardinal was so nice and friendly it made our buying process so easy and smooth. We will buy our next vehicle from them and we will specifically ask for Eric Kao, as should you!!!
"Car Buying"
Working with Peter Schmidt changed the usual distasteful job of car shopping and haggling to a very easy transaction.

He made the process a pleasure ,thats why we came back and this summer looking to purchase a 2016 Honda Accord Coupe when they arrive . I will not deal with any one else !! He listens to what his cust needs and wants are.
"Peter Schmidt"
In the past two years I have made three transactions for new vehicles. Two were purchases, one was a lease. Each time I have had the pleasure of dealing with Peter Schmidt. Each of these transactions were pressure free. I have not found this to be the case with other dealerships. Peter represents Cardinal Honda in a professional and friendly manner. The two vehicles we purchased at the end of last year were 2016 HRVs, difficult to come by due to the demand, Peter made every effort to find us the exact models and colors we were looking for. Due to Peters professionalism Cardinal Honda has gained a customer for life.
"Review Of Cardinal Honda"
Whenever I want to purchase a new or used car, I always go to Peter Schmidt at Cardinal Honda. He is a true asset to the company. He listens to what I am looking for and will do whatever it takes to make sure that I am satisfied. They are the most reputable dealership in the area and I will continue to purchase from them for many years to come.
"Great Service!"
This is a great place to go to buy a vehicle. Our family really needed a bigger car to haul us all around and we were able to find the perfect fit for us. Walter Groux walked us thru every step, was available for any questions we had, and even helped to occupy my kids with toys and coloring books while my husband and I completed all the paperwork. I am very pleased and would definitely recommend Cardinal Honda if you are looking for a vehicle.
"Great Service"

"Best Car Buying Experience By Far.."
I had a really good experience with cardinal Honda. Eric the sales associate I had was great. He answered all my questions and most importantly he didnt get impatient with me.
"Great Dealership, Great Salesman In Peter Schmidt"
Weve been buying cars from Cardinal Honda and Peter Schmidt for many years (at least 6 cars from them in the last 20 years.) Theyre a dealership that stands behind their work and they dont try to sell you more than you want if you have a budget. Weve bought both new and certified used from them and are happy with the vehicles and service. So happy, that we took our mom from Rhode Island to buy a car there and they took care of the details and registration for her, even though shes from another state. The Honda financing also beat the USAA interest rate she had, and Chris in finance did a great job explaining everything line by line so that she was comfortable with the financing package. They always go above and beyond in their customer care.
"Amazing And Satisfying Visit To Honda In Groton Ct"
Just want to begin by saying that My experience with Honda couldnt have been any better if it wasnt for Peter S. Hes a great asset to Honda and are very lucky to have him. Its very hard to find amazing customer care, with Peter I felt comfortable, I felt like I was getting the Best Buy for my buck. He was very honest, very caring and very motivated. The drive he had was unratable. He made sure me and my fiancé were completely satisfied with our purchase. He also ran the extra mile to insure any little issue our pre owned vehicle had was token care of as soon as possible. I usually wouldnt let my fiancé take care of anything that has to do with our vehicles on her own but I knew that with Peter she was in great hands. He even took the time to give me a call and let me know everything went great with the repairs on our car while I was at work. If anyone decides to visit Honda please see Peter S. He has a lot of experience and will do anything in his power to protect your investment and get you into the car you deserve at a great price. We will definitely pay him another visit in the near future. Thanks Bb.
"Fantastic To Buy A Car From!"
Bought a used car from Cardinal Honda that I found on Cars.com and got a great deal. My sales associate Peter S. made the process painless and haggle free. Best part, when I told Peter I was traveling from New York to get the car, he even offered to pick me up at the ferry! He is a true professional and nice guy. Go to Cardinal Honda and ask for Peter S., tell him Mustang Tom sent you!
"Bob Guffey Was Great"
the sales represenitive was wonderful he helped me with every aspect of buying my first car.i would recommend him to anyone
"Best Experience At A Dealership"
I went to see Peter Schmidt at Cardinal Honda. Several people I know have personally made purchases from him and have always had high praise. They were absolutely correct! Peter was a pleasure to work with. I feel he went above and beyond. I let him know what I had seen on his lot and what I had seen on other Honda dealer lots and he did all the research and got all the answers I needed and even though I decided to wait on the purchase he treated me as if I just purchased a brand new vehicle. It is not often these days to get such wonderful customer service and even more so when I actually did not make the purchase. I will definitely being going back to see Peter.
"Carrie Arteaga"
Purchasing a new Accord was a very pleasant experience at Cardinal Honda in Groton, CT. Peter Schmidt was a very knowledgeable sales person. He helped us figure out what we could afford in our budget, he educated us on the best value for our money and made us feel very comfortable. He was so wonderful that I decided to stop buying Toyota. This was our first Honda after at least a dozen Toyota Vehicles. I will be back to see him to buy another one for my son soon. He was a pleasure and made us feel like family.
"Oustanding Sales Experience"
Pete at Cardinal Honda is awesome to work with! Pete is very knowledgeable about the cars and the buying process which makes the purchasing experience very easy with no challenges. I will only buy a Honda from Pete!!
"Multi-car Customer"
My wife and I have bought multiple cars from Cardinal Honda and always work with our favorite salesperson, Peter Schmidt. I am constantly recommended friends and family to Cardinal, and more specifically to Peter as I know they will be taken care of. Peter does not push or pry, but takes his time and makes sure that you are getting exactly what you want. Not a better guy out there to work with.
"Excellent"
I had a great experience at Cardinal Honda. Walter Groux made my car buying process as simple and stress-free as could be. I couldnt have asked for a more helpful sales associate.

I came in to look at a used car and thats in my price range. Eric helped me and had me sold in the beginning. He didnt try to put me in a expensive car and listened to my needs. I would definitely come back and recommend this dealer ship to anyone.

"Car Purchase"
Eric was extremely helpful , patient and informative but not pushy. I would recommend that you speak with him if you are thinking of purchasing a new or used car.
"Outstanding Salesperson - Robert Cushman"
Typically, purchasing a new vehicle is not a pleasant experience. Robert Cushman changed that. He was extremely professional, knowledgeable, and honest in answering my many questions and assisting me in purchasing the right car. I made two trips to Cardinal Honda, both of which I met with Robert. On the first visit he showed me various cars and we test drove them. Over a weekend on a Sunday, I contacted Robert who was on a trip with his family and told him I was ready to buy and could he meet me at the Dealership the next morning. He did and I purchased a new Honda Accord. From start to finish the process was totally transparent and a pleasure to experience. All Dealership personnel including the Business Manager, Chris, went out of there way to ensure all my questions were answered. I will enthusiastically refer my family and friends to Robert Cushman at Cardinal Honda for all their future automotive needs. He is the epitome of a professional salesperson. Well Done Robert!
"Great Buying Experience"
We just purchased a 2013 Certified Honda Accord from the dealer in Groton, Ct and our salesmen Eric was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! He had us sold on the car right away. He listened to our needs as far as price range and what we were looking for. He didnt try to sell us something that was opposite of what we wanted! He explained everything to us to a T. And if we didnt understand, he explained it to us, so we got it. He has great patience and really values his customers! We would defiantly purchase more vehicles from Honda & have Eric to help us. :)
"5 Stars All The Way! Great Service, Great Deals."
I Came in to just look at cars to get an idea for a future purchase and ended up leaving with a brand new 2016 Honda CR-v Lx. I previously purchased a vehicle from Cardinal Honda and was very pleased with my service. My car sales associate Robert Guffey was absolutely amazing and very thorough when assisting me through the process. He made everything go smoothly and helped me get the best deal for my trade in. I highly recommend Cardinal Honda to anyone looking for a new vehicle for the best prices and people who treat you like family by giving you 5 star service every time. I will certainly be making all future purchases from Cardinal Honda in Groton.
"Outstanding Salesperson - Robert Cushman"
Historically, car buying is not a pleasant experience. Robert Cushman changed that. He was extremely professional, knowledgeable, honest, and willing to answer all my questions. I made two visits to Cardinal Honda. I purchased my new Honda Accord on the second visit. Between my first visit and second, Robert had answered questions that I posed to him via text messaging on a Sunday while he was traveling with his family. I told him I was ready to buy and ask him to meet me the next day. He did and I did. Everyone in the dealership went out of their way to be courteous and professional. The Business Manager took his time ensuring I understood all my options including the various warranties. I will highly recommend Robert Cushman and Cardinal Honda to my friends and family for their future car buying needs. Thank you for a great experience!
"Great Buying Experienmce"
I just bought a brand new Honda cr-v ex and I originally looked at the lx, but because of the great price and the sales person we bought the ex. if you want a great experience go to cardinal Honda and ask for Eric
"Best Experience Ever!"
I came into Cardinal Honda looking for a used car that was small and very good on gas. Eric Kao was the first dealer to come up to me and he made me feel very comfortable from the get go. He showed me around the lot and took the time to explain all the cars that were used and even some of the older models that were in my price range. He was very knowledgeable and I could tell right away he loved what he did and he was very helpful. He took the time to show me how my payments would be like and I will be returning to the cardinal Honda dealership in the spring to buy a car off Eric. Definitely go to him if you want a very relaxing knowledgeable experience.
"Overall Awesome Experience"
My car was totaled in an accident and I was left with little option but to purchasing a car. Throughout all the pain dealing with insurance companies and the other driver, Cardinal Honda was awesome in helping me find the car that suited my current needs. Dave Briggs was my dealer at Cardinal Honda and he was more than helpful and kind in the matter. He did not push me to purchase the car that he thought I wanted, nor did he push me to something more pricey. He knew my situation at the time, knew what I had to work with, and gave me the information that was in my price range and with my requirements. At no point did he try and sell me anything I didnt need or anything extra. He was very attentive and I could tell he was focused on getting me the car that I could afford and wanted. Anyone who is looking for a great car with great customer service without the pushing and prodding of a nagging salesman, go to Cardinal Honda and if hes available look for Dave Briggs.
