Reviews of Honolulu Volkswagen
Duncan Hunley
Honestly had a great time working with Micheal!! he was so helpful and didn't give up on me. the car I originally wanted to look at sold so he showed me the model up that I thought was outta my price range, but after talking number and thanks to the GM I got into my GTI that I've dream of being in at such an amazing deal. If you're looking to get into a brand new car and have a trade in definitely go see Micheal at Honolulu VW! I loved working with them and thank them for getting me into the car I wanted at an amazing Deal!

I had a fairly good experience. The people were nice and not pushy. But, before the purchasing the vehicle, I was offered little for my trade-in, which I turned down. This meant that, when I picked up the new vehicle, I had 2 cars to get back to my home. I was told by the sales agent that he or someone else at the dealership would be able to help drive one of the vehicles back to my house. The next day, an hour before I was meant to drive down to the dealership, I was told by the sales agent that neither he (nor anyone else at the dealership) could help me because they were "short staffed." This meant that I had to cancel my plans to drive down to the dealership. Instead, I had to catch the bus on a Sunday. In fact, to get to the dealership, I had to catch 2 separate buses and walk a mile plus to get to the dealership. This was particularly disappointing, especially given that I was purchasing an expensive vehicle. This is why I cannot give a better review.
Nicholas Rhodes
Wen was great she brought me in and showed me a vehicle that was perfect and she did all the paperwork quickly and promptly. When I was filling out the paperwork she also kept my 5 year old occupied. I am great I satisfied. The financial management was very easy going as well was in and out in 1 day with my new car.
Deborah King
Last year I needed to sale a vehicle. I was pleasantly surprised at the ease of the transaction. Nick was friendly and professional. We discussed my options and all the documents needed and to finalize the sale. We made an appointment and everything was handled promptly.
A few days ago, I had to contact the dealership for a document. Nick answered the call and he remembered me. He requested and sent me the document quickly. I was very impressed. Thank you Nick.
R Shishido
Overall service was almost painless, from online scheduling to intake at the dealership, to notification that vehicle's recall service was completed and was ready for pickup, to pickup and having it washed - pleasant surprise!
Also most important, Tiguan's transmission seems to be working a lot smoother - don't know if anything was done for it.
Will be back for Tiguan's care, especially during the specials!
Thank you Honolulu VW!
Brandee Yuen
Katie has been a great communicator between my family and the mechanics. She offered services that made this frustrating time easier. She has been that smile and wonderful attitude even through my own frustration. Because of staff like her ill keep coming back to volkswagen.
mira heer
Katie was the best employee that I have worked with at the VW so far.
She made everything so easy and even checked on me how the Lyft ride was. Very friendly and sweet.
Happy new year!
Grady B. Kaipo Wells
Jessica Bales is absolutely awesome! She listened to what my goals were, with regard to having our Passat serviced, helped me through the process & got it done. I absolutely appreciate her & she'll be my contact going forward regarding this. :-)
Robbie Hu
Working with Katie made thhis very smooth and easy. She is well knowledgeable and kept keeping us updated on the vehicle. We've been working with Tony VW for quite sometime and there is a huge difference in the service. Honoiulu is by far the best service we have received since being at the original VW on Ala Moana over 20 years ago. We hope to do more business with your store in the future.
han lee
Great experience with Katie, everything went as stated and was very happy. Picked up the car late so missed the shuttle service, I was going to call a uber myself but Katie insisted that she would take care of it for me and she did..
Jasmen Daley
MY FAVORITE DEALERSHIP! Ej is an amazing salesman ... I wouldn't even give him that title because he didn't "sale" my husband and I anything. He simply showed us the vehicles we wanted to view and lets the cars speak for themselves. He was very relatable, he made great conversation, and he assisted my husband and I to purchase our first family car! We even received a VW baby bib and Yeti! Customer service is 1000% the best I have ever experience. We will definitely be back in the future!
AUA HAWAII LLC
Raymond did a good job as always. (Sure, you can let him know this is Daniel with the 2018 GLI that did the oil change and replacement battery last week)
Patrick J. Foehr
Super helpful customer service. However, they forgot to wash the car. Minor in the scheme of things. I was able to work in the waiting area and the service folks were quick.
Aimee Joy Cueva
Very friendly and welcoming experience. Our sales agent Livingston was friendly and very professional. He went above and beyond to show us all the possible models that could match what we wanted, and were able to choose from them! You should definitely reach out to Livingston if you are in the market for a vehicle!
Charlotte Asencio
Purchasing my new car from Honolulu Volkswagen was a really great experience! Nick was an absolute joy to work with. He was personable and kind and completely went above and beyond to make sure the process was super smooth and easy for me. This was really the only car buying experience I’ve ever actually enjoyed!
Ryan Kawailani Ozawa
Ever since Honda introduced the Energy Green color, I've coveted a Civic in the unmissable shade. But 99 percent of cars brought into Hawaii are white, gray, silver or black, and I'd only rarely catch a glimpse of one, like my white whale. But when one turned up at Honolulu Volkswagen, I knew it had to be mine. And I would have gone to any dealer to capture this car.
Fortunately, Honolulu Volkswagen turned out to be a surprisingly good car dealer experience, even though nobody really savors the car sales experience... especially the used car sales experience. But the operation seems well run, and part of a large and growing national corporate family that included several of Honolulu's larger car lots, including Honolulu Ford.
I worked with EJ Sales (yes, that's his real last name), and almost entirely online for the first several interactions, from email to text message. I was able to get the car to the very edge of being sold entirely online, but of course I wanted to see and drive it first. EJ marked it as "sold" on the lot to hold it a day, for peace of mind.. even though I'm not sure there will ever be a line of people waiting to buy an Energy Green anything.
The car turned out to be in spectacular shape, imported from Indiana by a military couple that had gotten pregnant and had to trade it in for a SUV. And the price was significantly less than a Civic that was a year older with more miles.
Now, working with the "finance guy" is basically the boss level when it comes to buying a car. Don't get me wrong, it was not a short meeting. But Eric Mak was very transparent and patient and had the assured manner of someone who actually liked what he did. He got me a financing rate considerably lower than my own bank's offer, making the monthly payment low enough to tack on the extended maintenance plan. And I NEVER get the extended maintenance plan.
As an added bonus, EJ said he felt the passenger seat could be cleaned better, and gave me a certificate for a (second) detailing, at my leisure. Now that I'd be going to Honolulu VW for regular maintenance, I was especially glad to see such attention to detail.
Buying a car can be a nightmare. It wasn't exactly a light daydream at Honolulu VW, but it far exceeded my expectations.
Anthony Ames
Great service and huge shout out to my boy Clint who works there. Great customer service from him and helping me find the best deal for my car. He worked hard and did everything he could to make me happy and did everything in a timely fashion.
Update to my review: still 5 stars, if I could give 10 I would, I went in to trade my Jetta and Brandon was more than happy to help me and get the exact vehicle I needed. Our family is getting bigger and Brandon helped me get a Tiguan for the perfect price. This place is amazing.
Keola Lai
Everything went smooth. From dropping off my vehicle, getting a Lyft back home, to getting picked up by the shuttle to be taken to my vehicle upon completion of service all in a couple of hours.
Pat Jittipat
EJ provided an instrumental analysis on which year we should get for helped help us to decide on our new car. When it came to price negotiation, EJ was very respectful. He understood we were not rushing to get a new vehicle; we would get a new one only if the price were right. Before I received my offer, I told EJ I wouldn't get a car today. He was very professional, not showing any disappointment. Instead, he determined to try one last time to get the deal we were asking for. Also, he was very thoughtful to make a following up call after a week of purchase. I would recommend my friend to see him if they are looking for VW.
Sarah Miller
I had a great experience with Nick these past 2 days. He kept me informed even when I was not physically at the dealership. Overall I am happy with my experience with Nick, the dealership and my new vehicle.
Shalom Shalom
I had an outstanding experience at the VW dealer in Honolulu. Your salesman Noah and the Finance manager Eric Mak provided me with superb customer service.
William Kumagai
Appreciate the help from Volkswagen corporate and Honolulu Volkswagen to complete the fix on my Golf's A/C. It took awhile, but they stuck with it. Also helps to have such a great shuttle service.
David Do
They treated me like a valued customer from the get go. They made sure I was able to get home and back to the dealership and that the job was done right.
Sheri McNeil
Simple book online, check up and safety check complete- Jessica sent a Lyft to grab me since VW driver guys shift ended.
Howard
Just bought a 2021 Golf from James at VW Honolulu. As someone who usually dreads the car buying experience, I have to say I was pleasantly surprised by how smooth everything went. James and the entire staff were very friendly and knowledgeable. If you’re on the market for a new VW, I highly recommend VW Honolulu.
Michelle Takai
Livingston and Jeff were friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. I loved the no-pressure experience when buying my 2021 Tiguan R-Line. Best of all, I am ecstatic with my new car. I highly recommend Volkswagen and this dealership!
Justin solusod
Josh, the sales manager, was very helpful and did what he could to give us the best deal possible before we even showed up to the lot. Gina, the sales representative, was very friendly, very helpful, and patient with us as we took a bit to find what best fit our needs and price range. Erik, the finance guy, was super friendly and even allowed me to bring our dog inside so she didn’t have to wait outside the dealership. Erik was able to get our APR rate lower than what we previously expected and that was incredible. All together it was a great experience, I will definitely recommend any family/friends/people who ask about my experience with VW of Honolulu to go to them and purchase a vehicle. We walked out of there with a used but practically brand new car still under manufacturers warranty, with super affordable monthly payments, and a APR rate that is in the single digits. I will definitely go back to them when another vehicle is needed.
Robert Segeda
Livingston did a great job explaining the inventories and helped me find the perfect car I was looking for. Finance department was also friendly and they were all happy to assist!
Elden Yoshida
My appointment made in advance was for 7:15 am, the first available slot of the day. My car did not go into a service bay until about 40 minutes after check-in; given that this wasn't a walk-in shouldn't the first appointment of the day be given prompt service, within 10 minutes of checking in? Other than that the work was performed in a reasonable amount of time.
Robert Johnson
Katie was amazing to work with. She is attentive to customer needs, professional, and seeks to make everyone leave with satisfaction.
Tyler Nakasone
The atmosphere at Honolulu VW is always inviting and their workers always greets me in with a smile. I feel valued, which is hard to come by these days.
Blaine De Ramos
I have had to bring my Atlas into Honolulu Volkswagon for warranty parts on multiple occasions. My customer service agent Katie continuously treats me like family instead of a profit.
Matthew Penrod
If you’re looking for a new car I definitely recommend Honolulu Volkswagen!
Ask for EJ. He worked with me from the first day and did an awesome job answering questions and explained everything very clearly.
My schedule isn’t the most predictable but he was still willing and able to work with me and helped me get in and out both times I had to come in!
Great service, awesome people! I highly recommend!
Bryan Henson
FRIENDLY, KNOWLEDGEABLE & FAIR!!!
Honolulu VW - VW Atlas recent lease on 1-APR-20
EJ and Jeff made my recent lease transaction my best experience by far!
My wife and I trade vehicle approximately every two years. I mention that because it means we visit dealership often. It's a pleasure when you find a dealership that doesn't mark up prices and play the typical dealership games of going back and forth trying to milk you for everything that can.
My transaction literally went like this:
-I called and spoke with EJ.
-I asked for the numbers (payment and details) for vehicle a VW Atlas I saw on their website
-Filled out credit app online
-Gave me an approximate value of my trade
-I came to the store, filled out the contract on an iPad and left in a new car 20 minutes later.
Can't make this up. Highly impressed. I've leased an M4 from BMW (off-island) and tried to be in and out the door and it still took two hours.
I don't want to set unrealistic expectations if you're a possible customer. I already knew what I wanted. I don't go on multiple test drives I just do research before contacting a dealer.
If you don't know what you want, the staff seems extremely knowledgeable and can help you figure out your needs. I simply wanted straight forwardness and they conformed and provided the customer service that was required of my needs.
Great leadership/management in this store. Felt very welcomed and their friendly personality was the cherry on top... more importantly, not getting the "runaround" and low balled was most important - because after all, this is a large transaction that most don't take lightly.
Come to this location if you want to deal with good people, some aloha, a large selection of vehicles and fair pricing!
****FYI, I would not recommend Tony VW in Mililani - read my review to see why.
Derek Johnson
Sales rep outstanding communicator, very prompt and responsive to all questions.
He made purchasing from outer island as seamless as possible.
Adam Brown
Paul was extremely helpful showing me multiple cars, working around my schedule, taking calls after hours, and even pushing to expedite a service on my Tiguan so I could make a personal appointment. I would recommend Paul to anyone looking to get into a new or used VW.
Cori Hara
We were a signature away and had possession of another 2022 vehicle but at the last moment we received a note from Honolulu Volkswagen that a new arrival was expected and they could have a top of the line vehicle ready a day later. The attentiveness of EJ & Eric were exceptional. Eric remembered our first VW purchase in detail and made the difficult task of completing finance paperwork feel like a breeze. EJ is extremely knowledgeable about his brand and cars in general. He had us 200% sold by his genuine care for our family's safety and comfort. Who knew we would purchase our 2nd VW in 3 years and it is absolutely because of the 5-star experience while other dealership experiences do not come close to this awesome experience. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED and we will be back!
Diego Agbayani
It was overall a very pleasant experience. The sales people I dealt with was very professional and not pushy.
Kaitlyn Greene
Livingston was fantastic to work with and did a great job helping us find our new Atlas. He was incredibly helpful from the first contact, he send photos of the vehicles I was interested and walked us through the details and differences between trim levels. He didn’t pressure us and was very knowledgeable. Finance was great to work with and got us a better deal than we came in with. Overall we really enjoyed working with Livingston and would definitely return in the future.
Braden Eisenbeis
James was able to meet with me on short notice. I ended up not liking the first car that I came to see, but he had other options that he thought I would like. I ended up loving his second suggestion. The manager was very generous with his trade in offer which sealed the deal for me! The car I purchased was very clean and well kept on the interior and exterior. They were able to find me a very good price for a warranty package, and worked with my budget to get it paid when I could afford it. Also, the establishment was very clean. Comfortable waiting room with many options on the TV. Water and coffee complimentary. Nice gift shop and clean restrooms! James and his manager were not the typical pushy/aggressive car salesman. They were nice, personable, and really strived to make a deal that worked for me. I will definitely recommend Honolulu Volkswagen and James to my friends and family!
Victor Ching
Nick was excellent from pre-order through delivery. No BS or surprises. Highly recommended.
Samuel Fox
Livingston was one of the nicest people I’ve ever met (let alone car salesmen)! He was kind, patient, and super genuine (and has the best voicemail recording I’ve ever heard 😂). He was willing to give my fiancé and I some space to discuss options and was never pushy in any way. Any raises or promotions that are available, Livingston should get them! Thanks again for a great car buying experience!
Alika Pauole
Friendly salesman, very personable.
Jaedon Membrere
I was looking to lease a car for business purposes and EJ, our salesman, helped us a lot. He provided great customer service and a great deal, so we were able to drive the car out the same day.
Johnny Ma
Thank you James helping us find our new car. Golf R! With excellent service and offer us the best deal! If you are looking for Volks go look for James !
Mojoduck
Sales person was engaging, negotiation was fair and straight forward. There is no loss of equity trading my leased vehicle.
Bettina Mehnert
I had no appointment, but never felt that I created havoc with their schedule. My car needed a new battery and a safety check and was done by lunch. I was very happy.
Serina Kista
Focus needed with Sales team to close customer and have better knowledge on financing options is needed.
Maxine Clegg
Bought our dream car yesterday and worked with several different salesman during the process. We took our time and everyone was patient and very kind to us. We had a wonderful experience and I highly recommend their business to anyone car shopping on this island! Specifically -- Steven, Kyle, Brandon, and Eric deserve a big shout out!
Monique Dottin Watkins
purchasing my vehicle was a pleasant experience, Ej made the process painless
Julie C.
One word sums up my experience at the Volkswagen dealership in Honolulu, INCREDIBLE. The customer service, pricing, and everything in between was great. We bought a used BMW and our sales person, Livingston, was awesome. He was patient, knowledgeable, and really made us feel that he had our best interest in mind. I'm very picky when it comes to cars, but Livingston answered all my questions and if he didn't know the answer he would find it out. We were at the dealership for over 6 hrs and way after store closing but the whole time Livingston had a smile on his face. I'm a hard negotiator and Livingston and his manager Jeff were awesome. They worked with our budget and even though I did not get my ideal price, they definitely made an attempt and got it as close as possible, and in the end we were very happy with the purchase. Usually car dealerships have bad reputations for hard sales tactics, but I feel the Volkswagen dealership, especially Livingston and Jeff just genuinely wanted to make an honest and fair sale. They were very transparent, explained everything, and just made us feel that we could trust them. Every issues I had, and I definitely had a lot of issues, they took care of it. For example, the rear lights were not lighting up, I wanted a second key, etc, they were happy to accommodate. I definitely give them full marks for customer service, accommodating customer needs, car selection, and pricing. I definitely recommend the dealership and look for Livingston! He has a warm genuine smile that makes you feel that he's really there to help you.
Robert Smith
Good customer service, responsive on the phone and returns phone calls. If you have a car being serviced, they do have a shuttle service and a pretty nice lounge. Recommended.
Sunny Lifestyle
Very good experience since the beginning. Brandon reached out regarding my online inquiry. He is very responsive but never pushy. He is very knowledgeable about the inventory when I was communicating through text message with him. During the test drive, he introduced all relevant features of the car and honest about the things that he needs to double check. We ended up getting the car we tested. Great experience overall. Nice amenities while you wait and for kids too. Clean show room and relatively fast when you talk numbers with them. Again, Brandon has been super helpful during this entire process.
We live very close to the Tony Group VW and actually scheduled a test drive there first. But the experience was terrible... I would recommend this one over the Tony one a million times.
Vincent Tolliver
My wife and I could not have been more pleased with our experience at HonoluluVolkswagen. Brandon went above and beyond! He was super informative on everything we wanted to know, and we both felt like we'd known him forever. Once we decided on which vehicle we wanted, he made sure all of the paperwork was done, and we were on our way in our new ID.4, in record time! Thank you again Brandon, and the rest of the team!
Peter Ines
It was my first time bringing my car for service. Jessica explained the process very well. She also kept me informed about the status, then the next steps.
Venkataraman Balaraman
The staff is very friendly and eager. Due to this, during our transaction there were some missteps which were concerning. However the Sales, Financial and Service Managers worked diligently to address all the concerns and appropriately addressed the issues and took care of the necessary steps for satisfactory resolution. I would hope that in the future, this would help them take a lesson to really earn a 5 Star rating from me.
adam masuda
Check in and out with Raymond is always a pleasure. Coffee machine is a great plus.
Kayla Pitarra
My husband and I had an amazing experience with James, he was very kind & patient. He took the time to understand and listen to our needs for our new car and wasn’t pushy at all. Most definitely recommend him for your new car needs. We are forever grateful. We were not planning on purchasing a vehicle but with his help we found the perfect one for our growing family. You made it seem less and if we had to we would definitely one to you again.
Orchidelirium
It was a pleasure to work with the team at Honolulu Volkswagen but especially our Salesperson Emma. We are not the easiest to please but her personality and easy going sales demeanor put us at ease. Emma’s off hand knowledge of the VW family of cars, inventory and purchase options made this experience one of our quickest and best experiences. We purchased this vehicle for our teen; Emma along with the team helped make it extra special. They delivered to us a beautifully cleaned and shined vehicle with the unforgettable special touch of pink balloons. Their work helped make our teens 16th birthday extra special. Will never forget the attention to detail and heart of the Honolulu Volkswagen family and especially Emma.
Tyler Herrman
Great atmosphere! Livingston and Brandon were amazing and they people there are very knowledgeable and very friendly. Got the deal I wanted on the car I wanted, and was a pleasurable experience. They made sure I was happy and were very communicative. Livingston and Brandon were both on top of my car as it needed some things done before it was ready. They were quick and efficient, and willing to work with my schedule. They even filled my tank up before I drove off the lot! Definitely recommend, and would defiantly go back.
Sean “Arch”
Kyle is easy to work with. Richard is awesome at detailing the vehicles.
Darion Mabe
Let me preface my review with the fact that I work in the auto industry and have been exposed to both sides of many dealership experiences. This was by far the best experience I've had.
I went in a few weeks ago to trade in my '19 Jetta for a new GLI that I saw on the website. From the moment I sent in my inquiry, to the minute I drove off, my Client Advisor, EJ (Eanjym Sales) was responsive, respectful, honest genuine, and extremely helpful. He is absolutely nothing like the typical "salesperson" you'd expect when going to a dealership. In addition, the finance manager, Erik Mak, was direct and patient while providing me with all of my financing options. Lastly, I'd like to thank the Sales Manager, Dylan Fujimoto, who graciously worked on getting me the best value for my trade-in.
All in all, a 10 out of 10 experience. I will definitely be back for an upgrade in a few years. Thank you, Honolulu Volkswagen! - Darion
Meghan Costello
Awesome dealership! We were welcomed with open arms and the customer service was the best! Livingston was amazing he took great care of us and stayed later than normal to help us get the car we needed. Not only was he awesome on the day we bought the car, he still continues to reach out us to see how we are doing.
If you come to this dealership, Ask for Livingston. He is the man!!
James Sprigler
I had a wonderful experience at Honolulu Volkswagen! I want to personally thank Brandon Tom for assisting me in the process from start to finish. This dealership and their staff does not pressure you into making a one sided deal. The dealership was willing to work with me till I found what was right. They went the extra mile to ensure my experience was the best. I highly recommend this dealership over any other on Oahu! Thanks for everything Brandon Tom and the entire Honolulu Volkswagen Team!
Kalona Stone
Kyle Tom is THE MAN. I came in and left with exactly what I wanted at the exact price I wanted it for. His communication from even before I came to the dealership was above and beyond anything I would ever expect from customer service. I never knew buying a car could be so easy. Kyle continues to provide support if I have any questions or need anything done with my vehicle. He is awesome!! I had an amazing experience at Honolulu VW and I recommend for anyone in search of a new ride!!
Daniela Loera
Excellent service! The service staff is very nice. I worked with Alyssa this time, who is very polite and explains everything well. Also, the island wide shuttle is amazing. The driver, Chris, is very polite and reliable while making you feel safe and taken care of. My car came back beautifully washed and up-to date. I wouldn't want to go anywhere else. Thank you!
Aaron Montgomery
Livingston and James were excellent to work with and made buying a new car a breeze. We are new to the island, and they both made us feel right at home and helped make the purchase process extremely easy. I was able to complete all but the final paperwork over the phone and set up to sign the financial paperwork. It was great to work with this dealership, and I would highly recommend it to anyone.
Patrick Naugle
Best dealership experience by far! Ask for Livingston for excellent service. Everyone was very up front and accommodating. I normally dread dealing with dealerships but everyone at Honolulu Volkswagen was welcoming and transparent throughout the process. I didn’t feel in the dark at any point. I’ll definitely be returning for future vehicle purchases.
Thank you again!!
Davin Bishop
Livingston Rowan was an incredibly helpful and kind salesman. He helped me with every question I had and helped me get into a new car. I am beyond satisfied with the work he did and the time he put in to making sure I got what I wanted from the moment I stepped inside.
Bobby Lyons
Nick got me out of my older, out of warranty Countryman in favor of a brand new Taos and there was barely any movement in my monthly payments. The staff was great, not pushy and kept the process simple, plugging in info ahead of time to cut my wait time down when I finally picked up my new car.
Brian Belting
Bought my Passat a few months ago and love it. I had a couple concerns when I bought it but Dylan in sales and Mike my service rep took care of me completely. Thrilled with my car and that I have a dealer I can trust for years to come. Thanks guys!
craig takashima
Great customer service and satisfaction of job done
AlloytheJackal
Customer Service was on point. The staff treat each other like family! Brandon is an outstanding staff member and helped me through the buying process of my GTI with no problems at all! Whether you know what vehicle you want or your not sure about purchasing one, they will go out of their way to help you. I highly recommend this dealership! Thank you Brandon and the rest of the Honolulu VW team!
Madison Hobbs
Super detailed and personable people at this dealership. Got me a car specific to my wants and needs, not just selling to get cars out of the lot. Would recommend if you are looking for a new or used car. Best service in person and on the phone when answering all my questions before a big purchase. Emma is amazing!! Looking forward to driving my new car.
Caitlin Sutton
Bought my new 2020 GLI a couple days ago, got a great deal (0% interest for the length of my loan) & was very pleased with the customer service quality of Livingston. He’s very knowledgeable about his VW’s and he made sure I was comfortable and confident in what i was buying. Usually car buying experiences are long and drawn out- i HATE dealerships but this one is so welcoming. I actually liked being there. There’s also a lounge and plenty of refreshments.
Alvin Hirabara
I received excellent service from Emma. I was looking for a Jetta with certain features. Emma went through all the available cars including one that was pending delivery. When the car arrived I was quickly given a test drive. I had some questions about my seating and Emma explained all the options that were available to me. I got the car I wanted.

We loved our experience and this is my first VW and I love it! Huge shout out to our salesman Livingston who made this an enjoyable experience with no pressure and listened to our needs. Our kids got to enjoy cake with Livingston from another happy customer of his that made it just for him and our son said when he is able to buy a car he wants to buy one from Livingston. Needless to say I highly recommend stopping by to visit Livingston and the team, they were all excellent!

I was in contact with Jeffrey for about a year after deciding to buy a Volkswagen Golf R but he said they were still waiting on one to come in. He kept in contact with me throughout the year. When a new shipment of very limited Golf Rs came in, Jeffrey notified me, but I had already changed my mind about getting one.
About 6 months later, I was browsing online and noticed a nice used gray 2015 Golf R was listed on their site. I contacted Honolulu VW and Jeffrey got back to me right away. I told him I would like to take a look at it after lunch on Saturday. So I went down after lunch and a young salesman named Kyle greeted me. I told him I would like to talk to Jeffrey so he told me to wait a little while since he was busy. A couple minutes later he mentioned Jeffery was still busy so he would be able to help me out. Kyle was very personable and friendly throughout the whole process. He was very knowledgeable and always kept me updated on everything throughout the process. Eric was also very friendly and great to talk with about the financing. He also was very knowledgeable and made the financing process go smoothly. The wait was a bit long but it was totally worth it. They were nice enough to offer us pizza and water or coffee as I waited. Jeffrey was also nice to talk to and very knowledgeable about everything. He also kept me updated on the progress of my car as they detailed it. Everything went smoothly and was painless for my first time buying my own car.
Thank you very much to Kyle for this great experience at your dealership! I would definitely recommend Kyle!

I came to Honolulu Volkswagen hoping to find my next ride and James made that happen. James and his boss Stuart worked hard to ensure I was satisfied. I left extremely happy with a brand new 2021 Gti and as a proud new member to the Volkswagen family. The service that I received from James was outstanding and plenty of Aloha. I highly recommend Honolulu Volkswagen.
Brian Stacey
Our sales associate Liv went above and beyond to take care of us. This is the only place on the island you want to go to buy a car. Every person my family and I interacted with was professional and helpful. We were able to get the exact car we wanted in very little time and at a fair price. Best hot chocolate in town!!! You need to get your next car from this place. GREAT TEAM..
Aaron Longobardi
I came here looking for a good lease deal with no money down and James was such an easy guy to work with. Him and the rest of the dealership made this a very easy process. They let me go home for the night after we settled on a great price and then the next morning I got to come by and sign papers for less than 5 minutes. James was very helpful and informative and super accommodating to my wife and I’s requests. Would highly recommend you give VW your business and ask for James. You won’t regret it.
Ryan Hale
Recently moved to the island with the military and needed a vehicle. I had a great car buying experience here. Everyone was extremely friendly and helpful. My salesman Brandon was awesome and even offered to come pick me up from the hotel I was staying at with the vehicle I was interested in. They went out of their way to get me the best rate on financing as well. Would definitely recommend if you're looking for a new car.
Kayla Nelson
Had a great customer service experience here at Honolulu VW. Brandon Tom is a great rep. He was able to answer all my questions and kept me up to date every step of the way. The service department is great too, shout out to Alyssa for helping me. Overall the experience with everyone here was A+. 10/10 would recommend.
Jayden Jao
I wanna thank Kyle and Brandon Tom for their best customer service. They made my car buying experience the best ever. If your ever seeking for a vehicle stop by at Honolulu Volkswagon and ask for Kyle or Brandon. I can guarantee you they will provide the best customer service ever and your won’t regret it. Keep up the good work and trustworthy Kyle and Brandon.
Grayson Hart
A smooth and efficient process from start to finish.
After a rocky encounter at a large dealership down the street, I was relieved to receive straightforward, no-nonsense information from EJ and the sales staff. I got a great deal on my car, and did not feel taken advantage of or like I had been given the runaround. The customer service is excellent for after purchase support as well. Overall, the staff at Honolulu VW feels like a family; I am glad to have chosen this store for my car buying experience.
George Taniguchi
Thoroughly satisfied with the competence and knowledge of the service department. My service manager (Jessica) actually walked back and forth to the car while it was being worked on to update me on key points. She immediately provided me with a loaner when it was evident that the vehicle would have to stay over night. Good job!

Had a follow up appointment today with a much higher level of satisfaction so updating based on todays visit.

First of all, everyone I encountered was very friendly. Checking in for the appointment was seamless, easy, and very positive. In addition the a ‘check light’ and engine issue, I was also in for two recalls.
I dropped the car off around 720 or so, then about 7 hours later got a text that my car was ready to be picked up. Considering that there was some diagnostics that needed to happen to figure out what was causing my issue, I thought for sure I would get a call to discuss options, but I didn’t.
When I came in around 415 to get the car, it took about 15 minutes for them to find my paperwork, which is a super minor inconvenience, but I was surprised to learn during check out that one of the big issues I came in for wasn’t really addressed, I was under the assumption that it would get repaired. The issue was diagnosed though, and the advisor read to me, out loud, what the issue was, but because she had read so quickly (and also due to her face mask and the plexiglass) I have no idea what she said. I had to interrupt the check out process to express to her that I thought since it’s one of the primary issues I came in for that it would be fixed, but her response was that the ‘gas cap’ is out of stock (the bigger issue seemed to be the N80 purge valve needing to be replaced).
In addition to the above, when I got home and was able to thoroughly review the paperwork I was given, I noticed the results of the Multi-Point Vehicle Inspection which seems to have some significant findings and recommendations – none of which were explained to me or even pointed out to me during check out. There are no estimates associated with the recommendations and since I’m not a mechanic I don’t know what most of it means and they all seem pretty serious.
I pre-ordered a part (gas cap) so that it can be replaced when the N80 is also replaced but honestly I’m hesitant to come back. Though the staff I interacted with were both very friendly, the checkout process seemed rushed and dismissive with no communication between the time the car was dropped off and the time I got a text that the car was ready to be picked up.
Also, the day after my service we called for a price quote on replacing the tires and getting an alignment. After a couple of calls the individual said they would call back with an estimate. More than 24 hours later I've still not received a price quote (or a return a call)

I took my Golf R in for an oil change and service on November 15. I was immediately warmly greeted by Jessica and she processed my service request quickly and efficiently. Jessica explained all the options very clearly and provided excellent advice. I always mention to my friends and family how wonderful the customer service is at Honolulu Volkswagen. The staff is always friendly, helpful and professional. Jessica is a prime example of this exceptional customer service!
T Jones
Thanks so much to Paul for helping us work out a wonderful deal! He was patient and friendly, taking the time to get to know us and understand our situation and what we wanted to achieve. Before our appointment I was thinking that it would probably be too difficult or not worth their while, but they were able to help us consolidate 2 financed vehicles into the new Atlas to make room in our garage (and save some money in our pockets going forward). We are so thankful that we took a chance, and grateful to Paul and his team for helping us navigate the trade-in process. We’ve purchased VW in the past and will probably be a VW family for a really long time! 😁
Katie Jaramillo
We had a great experience w Volkswagon Honolulu! They listened to what we were looking for, gave us options, and helped us make the best decision for our new family vehicle. Leaving as very happy customers! Ask for Kyle and Brandon! Like I said, so helpful and made our experience pleasant and easy! 🤙🏼🤙🏼 …
imTR_x
This was our 4th car purchase in Hawaii and this company BY FAR was the best and most helpful and also very respectful of the choice you made wether to buy or not. Loved the fact that there wasn’t any pressure, Livingston was a great salesman! Would definitely recommend him!
Raeanna Rietow
I went in for a safety check on my vehicle that was shipped from the mainland. It was easy, breezy, and comfortable. While I waited, I was able to watch TV in the lobby, with the option of even having control over the remote to change the channel. There was also coffee and water for guests. My service advisor, Mike, was more than helpful as he walked me though the process. I was even offered a complimentary car wash, which was the best part. Great experience.
Meghan Strong
Shawna was our sales person and she was wonderful! She was very friendly and helpful plus she made us feel more like family instead of the usual feel at a dealership (cold, slow, rude/etc) it was a very welcoming environment. Everyone was helpful and friendly. I really enjoyed the experience. She was also helpful in the fact that she gave us tips for local places to dine and beaches to visit etc. we just moved to the island so we know nothing! I would 100% recommend them and Shawna-Lei!
Lay E
The service here is remarkable. I had great experiences purchasing a car, in a tight time constraint, with multiple people working here. Emma and Kyle are wonderful people to do business with. Emma looked out for my best interest when looking for a good car to buy, and im not talking only price, she told me about some deficiencies in a car i was looking at, so i didnt waste my time. Along with that, she kept me informed over the course of a week and a half on a car i showed interest in. When i decided to come in and look at the car, Kyle took over, and he was exceptionally easy to conversate with. He was extremely knowledgeable on the things i needed in order to purchase the vehicle, and he worked past closing time to help me get things done. Truly an easy and quick experience. If you are looking to buy a car, get a hold of Emma or Kyle and you will not be disappointed.
Tyler Green
I had a great experience with Jeff and Kyle I came in with terrible credit and was trading in a vehicle with negative equity. They worked really hard to get me approved to a desired rate with no money down. Excellent service and very professional. Would definitely recommend Kyle and Jeff!
Kaz Miranda
I walked into the dealership hoping to buy my first car and was a little nervous. The man at the desk Patrick helped me all through out the deal and reassured every step of the way i got the car i wanted and needed. I am thankful he was there to answer all my questions and by the time i left with my brand new car I felt great and like part of a new family.
Jason Cordero
Our customer service technician Jessica was excellent. She was polite, professional, and committed to great customer service. The problem with our vehicle was appropriately addressed within a timely manner. The concerns of the mechanic as well as the reasons for cause of the vehicle issues were properly communicated to the customer. Finally a quick follow up to how the vehicle was doing post-service was conducted to insure the problem was effective solved. There was nothing more that we could expect from the great customer service we experienced.
mahalko0211
It was such a great experience working with Brandon! Quick and easy process! Brandon quickly assisted us with our online inquiry and went above and beyond by making sure we get all the information we needed. The vehicle was delivered right in front of my house with all the paperwork I need. Brandon, thank you for helping us find our new whip! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
DeAndra Freeman
Phenomenal service! I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. A special thank you to EJ and the rest of the sales team for making this the best car-buying experience in my 20 years of purchasing cars. Thank you again!
Maxx Toyama
Solid experience in comparison to a previous dealership I visited the week before. James contacted me right as soon as I sent in an inquiry. He was determined to give me as much information possible first before suggesting to come down to the dealership, which was totally opposite from previous experiences where I felt pushed to come down even if I was not totally interested yet. At the dealership I had the same response. Didn't feel pushy at all like previous dealerships and I felt James was trying to give me the best information for me to make the best decision for myself. I was even allowed to leave and come back on a different date, unlike other dealerships where they basically made me think I'm regretting walking out the door. Also even though I couldn't test drive the car, I have little to no complaints about my purchase, no car is perfect. Looking forward to getting the same type of service when I get my car serviced in the future.
Dohyung Park
Kyle is awesome! He gave me a really great deal on the upgrade for my lease. Literally saved more than a grand. All the staffs were nice too. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone
Mary Maier
I shopped online and found a car I wanted to test drive, I was able to contact Jeff and set up a time. The car was ready to be driven; Jeff answered all of my questions and provided me with a fair price. The process was quick and easy. I planned to pick up the car the next day and when I arrived Alex had the car detailed and ready to go. By far the most painless auto buying experience I have ever had. Jeff and Alex were both very professional.
Tati&Earl Domanguera
My husband and I have been looking for a family car for a while. As we are looking to start our own soon. We had Emma as our sales rep, and she was amazing. I myself am a very anxious person especially when it comes to purchasing new things. Emma put our mind at ease by being up front with the numbers and laying everything out for us from the get go. She helped us pick out a car that was not only affordable, but functional based on what our families growing needs would be.
Her and the VW team are all very warm people and treated my husband and I like family. We appreciate all the work and headache that they put in for us to be able to purchase our new car.
Thank You again Emma and VW Team!!
Keren Alfonso
Honolulu VW is one of the best dealership I’ve ever visited. They really help you reach your goal. They take the time to get to know your situation and find options that will help you get to where you wanna go. Brandon Tom was friendly and supportive in my goal to getting my dream car. Him and Erik (from finance) help me get a great deal for my GTI. Awesome team! Thanks guys for all your help! I will have a great Christmas this year!
Robert Ramsey (Rob)
I just had a great car buying experience! My salesmen, Brandon Tom, did a great job explaining all of the options and trim levels for the Jetta line I was shopping for. He's been patient and great about keeping in touch to answer my questions and ultimately helped me get into the price and financing I was looking for. I love my new 2020 Jetta GLI S!
Jason Wisdom
I always enjoy working with my service advisor Jessica. She shows true dedication and compassion with her customers. The customer waiting area is clean, comfortable, and fresh coffee is available.
Sharknado
I had a great experience buying a used car here. I called the day before and told them exactly which car I had seen on the website and wanted and the next day Kenny had it waiting up front when I arrived. I was taking it on a test drive within minutes of arriving. The whole process went so smoothly that I could have taken it home that day if I hadn't driven myself there! No one even once tried to push extra or unnecessary services on me and I never felt rushed or harried into making any decisions. Kenny was so polite and considerate throughout the whole process and even followed up afterwards to make sure I was having no problems with my new car.
Vennie Medeirosph
I have always been completely satisfied with the exceptional customer service! To the outstanding service with the timely completion of my vehicle! To my go to girl “Jessica” who is delightful, professional, and knowledgeable! Jessica walks you through every detail with warmth, and understanding of all services that I can expect to be done to my vehicle. Driving away each and every time with a guaranteed feel of trust that my car was serviced efficiently! Mahalo to all at Volkswagen Honolulu!
JJ P
Great and awesome experience with salesman EJ. I Bought a car from him today, very knowledgeable about the business, humble and professional. Can't say much about the dealership since he was the only person who I was in contact with and those involved in the process. He has represented the team well for me to give the review with 5 stars. Look him up if your thinking about buying or just looking for options, you cannot ask for a better salesperson. No stress, no long wait time. Everything went well from test drive to my mechanic looking at it to paperwork. It was a breeze.
Sheldon
Jessica Balles always provides excellent service from check in to delivery.
Mary Quinn
Thank you sooooo much for all of your help and excellent customer service! Appreciate you all so much!
Calvin Takara
I have had nothing but outstanding service from Honolulu Volkswagen over the past 2 1/2 years that I’ve owned my Golf. My battery needed to be replaced recently. As part of their multi-point check, the technicians identified a slight problem with the ignition assembly and replaced it as a warranty item. I was not aware that it was a problem and was grateful that it was identified while it was still under warranty. This could have been easily overlooked as it was not the issue that I came in for. The service department is thorough and really cares about the owner. I had to have my car towed in. They were able to take care of the problem within hours. That is great service. Service agent Jessica Balles is a real gem. She is professional, efficient, personable and treats you like family. She updated me with what was happening with my car through the day. I feel that service doesn’t get better than this.
Jordan
Brandon made my whole experience amazing. From the start, he was very understanding and patient. Great man to work with at Honolulu VW! Can’t say how much I’m in love with my new 2021 Tiguan Se R-Line!
Walter F Travers
Generally good for a car sales meeting with Shane, Justus and supervisor J?? - not give me his card as requested! (Not as easy as when I last bot at Hertz car sales). Took longer than necessary to "negotiate" ridiculously low trade-in value first offered - guess they were hoping I'd settle for "Low" value rather than "fair" value, but finally came up with reasonable offer. Also Detailing was incomplete - including sand still in "trunk" space (storage space below flooring in back)...
Aaron Steingiesser
This was my last stop after a long day out looking a car. Jeff was the salesperson that I worked with and he was very professional and did not try to hard sell me on something I did not like. Which was nice after talking to some of the sales people at other dealerships. Erik in finance was great and professional as well. Had a really good experience getting new car.
Danielle Muffat
Just purchased a new 2020 Tiguan. I knew exactly what car I wanted and James Lewis made it super easy. James was professional and prompt handling all my questions and concerns to my complete satisfaction. We communicated entirely via text, phone & email due to stay at home restrictions. We set a delivery time, he drove my car to my front drive, went over all the paperwork and had me in my new car in a snap. Very friendly service. Even though we were both wearing face masks, I knew he had a warm, genuine smile underneath!
Mystica Tun
Great Service! Just recently bought a car from this dealership. Everything went smoothly, I actually went in thinking I was going to get financed through my credit union but the manager I spoke to (I believe his name was Eric) was able to offer me a better rate so I ended up going with theirs. Kenny was the cars salesman that helped me. He was very professional, very friendly and he didn't make me feel pressured or rushed at all. He kept me company while I waited to speak to the manager and when I did buy the car, I didn't leave with it right away. Instead, I drove my other car that i had driven to the dealership with, back to my place and Kenny was able to pick me up from Safeway and give me a ride back to the dealership to pick up my new car. All in all, I have no complaints. I'm happy with the service I got from both Kenny and the manager, and I'm loving my new jeep!
Courtney Gray
Alex did an amazing job getting me into the car I wanted for the right price! Friendly staff, comfortable environment, and everyone worked efficiently to expedite the normal, tedious process of car buying. Would highly recommend if you are looking for a used or new car to come in and see Alex! It was a great buying experience.
Brittany Olstad
Our sales person was Kyle. I just bought my Chrysler Town and Country today. I found it online on the website. I was able to easily and conveniently set up a test drive. My husband, kids and i arrived at the dealership and Kyle had the van right outfront waiting for me to take it for a drive. After letting him know exactly what i would like to be as far as price he made that happen. I am very satisfied and have gained a new faith in car dealerships. I wasnt at the dealership long before I was driving away with my new fully detailed van!
Stanley Bloom
Livingston really helped me and my fiancé buy our first car on the island. We just recently moved over from the mainland and had no idea where we would be purchasing a car but we knew we wanted a Tiguan! Livingston made the purchase smooth, and answered any questions we had. We'll definitely be purchasing from Honolulu VW again! 😁 …
Richard Wheeler
Excellent experience all around. Staff was very welcoming. Kyle was very upfront and helpful throughout the entire process. The waiting area was comfortable and offered free coffee. I ended up leaving very satisfied with my brand new Jetta.
Larry Ballinger
Jessica, was amazing. She was courteous and professional from the time we walked in the door. She got our car checked in quickly and got back to us by the end of the day and had our problem diagnosed and fixed. Give this professional a raise! Great service and upholds the Volkswagen name!
Virginia Donato
Our sales associate, Jessica, was awesome! She was very courteous, friendly & kept me informed about the status of my vehicle -- from beginning to end. Also, our courtesy shuttle driver, Chris, was very patient & courteous as well when dropping us off & picking us up to and from our destinations.

I had been looking for a car for some time now and I found a 2014 VW Jetta online on the Honolulu VW website that I really liked, so I inquired about it and was almost immediately contacted. We were able to set up an appointment and they helped me with any questions I had about the car. When I was going to the appointment I thought that I would just be looking and not going home that day with a car, because, well, this would be my first time buying a car. When I got there I was literally immediately greeted (like as I pulled up to the front) and helped by Livingston who turned out to be my salesman too. I was nervous but he walked me though everything and was very helpful, answered every question I had and even threw in some floor mats for me (yay). He turned out to be such a good salesman that I ended up going home with the car that same day. Everyone was extremely nice and friendly and I had an amazing experience there. After buying the car I found two bags of beef jerky and a pad in the glove box, absolutely comical. I love my car and so far it's going great. The only thing I hate is that there are roaches in the car (yikes) but that's solvable so I guess it's okay. All in all I'm happy with my car and I'm glad I went with Honolulu VW :)
MDS
Worked w/ Ivan who was great. Laid back and low pressure which was nice. I've worked in the car business for 10 years and this was one of the smoother car transactions I've had even with a few curveballs I had to throw his way. Handled it like a true professional and I am now enjoying my new-to-me vehicle. Everyone from the manager, Mark, to the finance guy, Eric, were great. 5/5 would recommend!
Joseph Fortin
If you are looking for a professional, highly efficient, and personal buyer experience, look no further than Honolulu VW. My VW Sales Associate, Emma was patient, knowledgeable, and customer focused. She answered all my questions and made recommdations without the sales pressure. Truly considerate of my needs and a great representative of VW HONOLULU and Hawaii!! A must location for anyone looking fur a car in Oahu!!
Benjamin Sambolanay
The whole staff here are AWESOME! Kudos to Brian, Matt, Dylan and Eric for their Outstanding customer service. I came in knowing what car I want to buy from USAA's car buying service. Since they are one of the certified dealership, I scheduled for a test drive loved the car and ended up purchasing it! Overall 5 Start rating and customer satisfaction! They are definitely on the top of my list for my next car purchase in a couple of months. Mahalo Team Honolulu Volkswagen!

At first I was weary if I was going to be able to get another vehicle since I still have one financed but, Paul and Jeff made it reality. Right from the start they treated me with respect and also like family. They made my experience less stressful and the process easy. I highly recommend these guys to anyone on the island or anyone that will be relocating here. Thank you both for everything
Thank you!!!!
Jeff
Christian Morehouse
Not like any normal dealership, from the music, professionalism and good vibes. These guys made my overall experience amazing, they listened to my concerns, catered to my price ranges and helped me out, 10/10 would recommend to a friend. Special shot outs to employees James, Jeff and Erik. You guys went above and beyond to help me out with my car. Thank you so much!

I went in to check out an SUV, and ended up driving away with an incredibly reasonably priced full sized sedan. Brandon worked with me to find what worked for me within my price range and assisted me through the whole process. Ivan and Brandon made purchasing a new car for my family and me a painless process, even delivering the vehicle to my house later that evening!
jkljr7
Felt right at home at Honolulu VW, Livingston Rowan and Jeremy treated me just like family. They helped me get a new (used) vehicle, wasnt pushy or force me in something I didn’t want. Overall, I’m very happy with the service they provided and the car I drove away in. I would highly suggest getting a new or used vehicle here if you are looking, make sure to ask for Livingston!
Allen Mendez
Had to sell my 2015 dodger in order to purchase a new vehicle. Brandon made it very easy and I was offered a great deal on my car even though the tires were a little more worn then I thought. I would definitely recommend this dealership to anyone that is looking to sell their car or even get a new one. Ask for Brandon as he is a great salesman who isn't pushy and really knows his stuff.
Jonathan Beck
Katie is awesome! Everything I take my car in I get the best services with amazing hospitality. I only let her work on my car.
Jenny Son
Received an excellent service for my oil and filter change. I was greeted with a smile and the service took just over one hour. VW checked my tire conditions and air pressures, topped off my fluids. I was very happy with the service. They also offered me free car wash at my convenience. I love this place!! Thank you!!
Brian Spence
Very pleasant experience at VW Honolulu! I went in with quite a bit of negative equity and Emma worked with me to get the right car for my lifestyle. She was very friendly and extremely quick with all the paperwork. Eric in finance was quick and efficient as well! Offering pizza and beverages all along the way!
Jason Tomita
Wonderful experience at Honolulu Volkswagon! The entire staff from the front desk to the service dept gave me excellent customer service, even thought I was interested in a used vehicle that was not even a VW.
I looked at their used car inventory online and called to make an appt to visit the showroom. I spoke with Jeff, the sales mgr, and he had me meet with Emma, in sales.
From the moment I got there, I felt welcomed By Jeff and Emma. Very nice and clean showroom too! Waiting area with ample seating and water/coffee.
Emma brought the car up front for me to look at. After I looked over the car, I had some mechanical questions, so Emma brought over the service mgr. He was very straightforward and went over the inspections they do on all the used vehicles and went over items that might be of concern. And at no time did Emma or Jeff ever pressure my to buy.
When it was time to make a deal, sat down with Jeff, and he offered a very fair price. I made a fair offer myself and we closed the deal.
They treat their customers with courtesy and respect, and I highly recommend Honolulu Volkswagon!
Mahalo VW Team!
Matt Sibley
Absolutely fantastic experience purchasing a used Jeep Wrangler. EJ was awesome...no pressure, but made himself available when we were. The Volkswagon Honolulu team worked together seamlessly to ensure our needs were met, our questions answered, and the vehicle was ready. Thank you!
Cheekily Hammond
Honolulu Volkswagen is a great place to get your car. Associates that work there like the gentleman that helped us Kyle Tom are awesome. They are extremely understanding and they go above and beyond to help you get the car you want for a price that is right for you. They answer any questions you have and are always patient and kind. I would definitely come back and recommend this dealership to anyone needing a car. Thank you so much!
Alexander Laxton
Livingston Rowan was by far more helpful and polite than he needed to be. Very satisfied with his service with my journey to by a car. The process was very smooth and relaxing with his assistance.
nathan brothers
Very pleased with our experience with Honolulu VW. No pressure sales team that made us feel comfortable and welcome. Emma and Livingston were both extremely helpful in finding the right vehicle for our family. I would definitely recommend this dealership. Thanks again!
Ian McElwee
First thing I can say is that this place is honest. We were helped by Livingston, and we originally went in to look at cars we had saved online. Only one was still available, but he found another car listed incorrectly on their site and suggested it as a great deal. Even with my skepticism I gave it a shot and he was right, the car was great and even below the lowest kbb value. We didnt plan to get a car THAT day but they gave us a deal that was actually too good to pass up, and were happy for us. Couldn't ask for a nicer experience and would recommend this place to anyone.
Shyla Ribordy
We had went in just too look at a car but ended up wanting to buy, we had issues with our loan but Paul, Eric and Jeremy from Honolulu VW were so awesome and patient with us! They helped us out A LOT! they gave us a great deal for our new car! They both were very patient with us, we went to the dealership at 4:30pm and never left till about 8:30pm. ( mind you they close at 8)They kept their cool and still helped us even if it took very long! lol I highly recommend going to VW! The prices are the cheapest place to get a car you want! They do offer you the best to get car loans. Also, eric is awesome! They all seemed to not mind having our two year old wander around and they also offered her snacks while we waited. Very good hearted people, they truly care and make your needs possible! Highly recommend, go see paul, Jeremy, and Eric when you’re looking for a decent priced car! worth it 110% will go there again when it’s time to go car shopping again.
matt james
Overall good experience. Bought a 2012 GTI pretty easy process. They made sure I understood everything. They told my I should sell my old car myself even though it didn't benefit them. There was a lot of waiting for paperwork and what not. Then at the end. The sales man drove my old car home for me. Great experience. Would recommend.
Taylor Smith
This was my first vehicle purchase ever. Initially I had a lot of anxiety about car dealerships and pushy salespeople, but when I came here I found none of that. My salesman Alex, listened and found something I wanted. He even took the time to show me multiple cars on the lot based on what I told him I was looking for. There was a really relaxed vibe and I didn't feel pressured to buy anything I was unsure of. They provide carfax on all of their inventory and price the lot fairly. I highly recommend Honolulu VW, and especially their team member Alex.
Jeff Widenhofer
All things considered, my experience was very good last week. It was my first time at Hon VW, and the personal care from the Service desk was great. Nothing short of great. The quotes I was initially given for several repairs, however, were outrageous. Absolutely was too high. Almost insulting. But they work with me on the price and reduced their repair quotes by a large %.
I'm not a fan of getting work done at import dealerships, but this particular visit worked out fine, and I do appreciate their customer service.
Carter Loewen
Livingston was a great help! Before i even decided to buy a car we were talking just about current events and it made me feel comfortable. Turns out i ended up getting a great deal on a car that was hidden in the back and he was a huge help as i was kind of stuck between a rock and a hard place. Livingston was patient while i made some phone calls and walked me through the process. Overall i will be for sure coming back here and working with him and Lithia Volkswagen with anything that i need.

Had a great experience working with Livingston! This was my first time buying a car through a dealership and it was painless with the crew at Honolulu VW. No stress situation and left with a beautiful car and a great deal. Thanks guys!
Leslie Cook
Honolulu Volkswagen was amazing to work with! Kyle Tom and his crew were super helpful and patient helping us learn to fit our car seat into various models, as well as entertaining and doting on our little one. A true ohana experience here. Thank you!!
Ryan Dyle
Me and my wife were looking at buying a used car and we were helped by an associate named Brian at the dealership who was very friendly and helpful with what we were looking for. We were there set on a certain type of car and that is the exact car he showed to us. We were contacted and told the car was in the shop for a recall and we were told we would get a phone call when it was out and he gave us a call as soon as it was ready and within a very short period of time we had all the paperwork done and were ready to go. The associates that work there are all very friendly and polite. Will definitely be bringing the car back for service due to great customer service on first visit.
Andrew Bruce
Got a great 2016 Chevy Malibu from these guys. Alex was the representative that I worked with, who was awesome. Great service and they worked with me the whole time as far as prices and management goes. I love my car and couldn't be happier.
Aaron Iwerks
Friendly and generally great experience. I didn't imagine myself purchasing a vehicle during the pandemic, however Brandon and Jeff went above and beyond to assist me. The overall experience was more like dealing with ohana! Mahalo team
Juan Tafolla
Had amazing customer service when walking Into their dealership really kind employees. Kyle one of the sales men was especially helpful when trying to find what we were looking at the vehicle we wanted really kind and was really knowledgeable about the vehicle we were looking at. I really recommend everyone if looking for a new or used vehicle to go and ask for Kyle Tom
Darius Jones
These guys have been taking care of me since I bought my Golf from them in July. They took a wholesale, rundown vehicle and replaced the suspension, windshield, a/c, all four tires, and rear taillight assembly and only charged me an extra $1000 even though all of that work was over $4000. After my engine needed servicing they were very prompt and reasonable. Jessica at services is a standout!
Kanani Kalahiki
Probably the EASIEST car buying experience I’ve ever had, and it’s thanks to the sales and finance team at Honolulu Volkswagen. EJ took such good care of us; from our phone inquiry, setting us up with an appointment on the same day, getting us a fantastic deal, and happily out the door with our new GTI... and it was so fast and easy. The experience here is second to none; it’s more like dealing with family than your typical car dealership. Extremely happy, 10/10 recommend!

!!!Please check out this location!!
If you go, ask for Kyle! He was an amazing salesman in many different ways. He treated us like real human beings. After a long day of already bad experiences, he was calm and let us lead our buying process. That alone set the tone for the entire night. He had no issue with us taking the time to look at the lot and looking inside each car that we were interested in. There was never a moment of pressure to do anything we didn’t want to, which relived so much stress from our shoulders. We admired his consistent patience and kindness. We had a quick and easy awesome deal for a GREAT car. Everything throughout our process with Kyle and the other people of that location was just so positive! Kyle alone went above and beyond to make sure we had the exact car that we wanted. He even went as far as to bring in a specific car for us.
The location alone is cleaner than any of the 6 dealerships we visited. On top of that it felt like we were at a coffee shop hanging out with a friend.
The ONLY take away from this experience was the slight lack of care from the detailing department. The outside was washed and buffed but the inside was just lightly picked up. The carpets weren’t vacuumed in the back and the tires still had grime all over them. More than a days worth of driving could cause.
But that was all stuff we can just fix up on our own and wasn’t a big deal.
Overall 5 out of 5
Zachery Heise
Livingston was extremely helpful and patient throughout the entire experience. He was extremely understanding when I ran into issues with the bank taking forever to approve my loan and continued to provide excellent service.
Jenny Lolotai
If anyone is looking into getting a car come here and ask for Ej ! He helped us get into our new Vw Atlas. As soon as we got there he came outside and greeted us, he took us directly to the car we were telling him about and let us test drive it and gave us a tour of it. I didn't like the leather seats so he showed us the same car, newer with fabric seats and my husband, kids and I fell in love with it. He explained everything to us about the financing and payment options, he walked us through everything and answered every question we threw at him. He went above and beyond our expectations!!! Best part ? He gave us a better deal than what we actually agreed on. Thank you so much for helping us Ej we really appreciate it !
Ryan Brechler
I want to give a big shout out to the VW group. Especially Paul. From the moment I arrived I felt welcomed and they helped me with every need. I was not looking forward to the purchase of a vehicle but they made this a awesome experience. They where fast and helped me with pricing to get the price I needed. I was in and out in 1.5 hours with a awesome mid SUV, and happy with the price. Big shout out to the managment as well. Made this a easy choice to pick V-Dub and be part of the family. Thanks guys!
Kassandra Rosales Gomez
I walked in with the intention of leaving the lot with a new car. Brandon made that possible, he went above and beyond to make sure I got everything I wanted and needed. He was knowledgeable as well as equipped to answer all the questions I had.
Thank you so much Brandon, you’ve made this experience truly perfect. Buying a new car is a huge commitment and I’m glad you’re the one that got to help me!
Erich Frees
I am new to Oahu and needed a second vehicle for work-commute. While looking around the island, I found a couple possible options at Honolulu VW. I called, came in, and met with Ivan, one of the sales people. He was extremely helpful while not pushing an agenda on me. We came to an agreement that same day and I drove away with a great daily runner at a good price. Ivan was patient, knowledgeable, and friendly. Thank you!
Christina Jungblut
Bought our 2020 Tiguan last week. We went in with no appointment and James helped us right away. He showed us everything we wanted to know and answered all questions. We didn't feel pressured or sold anything we didnt want or need. Very happy with our car and the buying/trade in experience.
Derrick Shields
Great experience. Their pre-owned vehicles are priced at Kelly Blue Book value and they don't try to over charge. The entire staff is very friendly and attentive to the customers, especially Shawna. They also have a very comfortable waiting area.
Aron Ochsner
Flo helped get me the perfect car! She asked all the right questions about what I was looking for as well as limitations and helped me get into the exact vehicle I wanted. She was incredibly professional and knowledgeable and I would recommend her to anyone in the area looking to buy!
Pritika Prakash
Two weeks ago we were car shopping and out of all the dealership we came across Honolulu Volkswagen was the only one that responded and pursued us. We talked with Brandon Tom and he helped us with trading in our old vehicle for a new one, he also helped us find affordable full coverage insurance as well. Brandon Tom made the process of car trading go smoothly.
Chris Martin
Excellent purchasing experience! Brandon Tom helped me from the parking lot through the final drive away. Brandon served professionally and personally - he’s an asset to the dealership! I’ll buy here again.
Chi Le-Misawa
Jessica always takes care of me so well. I came in for a flat tire and she checked all the tire brands for me and helped to pick the a new one. She also pointed out that I needed other checks. So blessed to be working with her. I only come to this location because of her service.
Capt. Redbeard (ClanRedhead)
Since moving to the Island 4 years ago we've purchased all our cars from here. The staff are friendly and helpful, the service is great and the location is very convenient. We just purchased the new GTI autobahn and Brendon was very patient while comparing the options and very knowledgeable about the features of each model. We got a good trade in value for the 2016 Golf we purchased from then before and Eric got us a great rate on the auto loan. I can highly recommend VW Honolulu for anyone looking to purchase a VW, new or old.
Our Golf from 2016:
We walked onto the lot already knowing what we wanted. One of the guys walked up to us and was very friendly, asked what we were looking for and got us out for a test drive in the 2016 Golf we wanted very quickly. He was very knowledgeable about the car and it's features. When we got back to the lot he helped us fill in all the forms to purchase it and the financial guy was great too. The car detail (cleaning, waxing, etc.) took awhile but the car looked immaculate when it was ready and they gave us both some free merchandise too. Thank you!
Justin Davies
We wanted the lowest trim of GTI, and it was arriving off the boat late that day. We had to come back later for it, but it was washed and ready for us to close as we had already test driven and just wanted to drive this one to check it quickly. No other fancier models available, but this one had everything we wanted in a GTI: nice styling and design, great acceleration, nice mats, good leg space in front and rear seat, decent space in trunk, small. We had a Prius for 11 years, so it was hard not to go with another Prius, but the 2018 designs were so hideous, it made it hard to ignore when getting a new car. The 54-58 mpg of the new Prius outpaced most cars except for electric ones, and the great gas mileage almost made it possible to overlook the ugly Prius interior design, digital panel and lame interface. But in the end, we decided to go for a gas engine and German design. Since VW has a 6-year/72K warranty, it addressed my main concern of repair costs and what-if-it's-a-lemon. Again, buying a Prius (on the mainland), Servco would not honor our warranty when we shipped it here, which was frustrating. (VW's warranty goes with the car, even if the owner transfers.)
When we arrived at VW's dealership, someone quickly found Livingston (sales), and he was easy to work with as other Yelp and Google reviews noted. He helped us trade-in our old car, as well as do whatever he could to keep the price at bay. He wasn't heavy on sales pitches, but he did figure out we were going to buy and tried to smooth the way for that. Erik Mak in Finance got us through payment quickly because of his expertise. It would have helped if he had talked us through a fast summary of each paragraph that we were signing. That would be my only critique. Otherwise, he was also easy to work with, efficient, clear, and not pushy about products or other offers. I really liked that, and how he was all business since it was late. Livingston has continued to help follow up with a number of small details, and he greets me any time we come in to VW or call for some help. I can't say I like to be at a dealership, to buy a car, or to deal with salespeople, but this was about as pleasant an experience as I could have hoped for. Many thanks to Livingston and to Erik!
Carrie Sharp
I will never go to another dealership again. This is the only one I’ll go to. I finally was treated like a customer should be. Best experience ever.
MMM
Just bought a 2018 VW Tiguan from here, Sage and the manager Jeremy are awesome! Both incredibly helpful, funny and willing to work with us and our budget! Financing manager was also incredibly helpful and nice! Customer service was amazing! Thank you to all of you at Honolulu Volkswagen that made our car dream come true! We appreciate you all and would definitely do business with you again! We will be back when searching to purchase our next car!! Thank you!
shawna santos
So this is my first time trying to buy a car and I've been doing my research on other SUV brands such as: GMC, Buick, Cadillac and Acura but I always had my eye on Volkswagen. I mean their advertising is everywhere and they are very personable on reaching out to customers about what promos, incentives and rebates that were going on every month. So I thought, "why not, just take that first step." I test drove the RDX, XT4, Encore, Terrain but I didn't like the feel or look of them. Plus the deal specials were not all that special. As soon as I stepped into VW I felt that fun, family-like atmosphere. So welcoming and everyone had smiles on their faces like they truly enjoyed being there. I was welcomed by Sage and Justus. They were very friendly and I ended up working with Sage. Who I thought was THE best salesperson. So informative and helpful throughout the entire process. I got to have a chat with the GSM, Mark Sherlock, and GM, Angela, of VW which hardly ever happens when you are trying to buy a car. Mark really hooked me up with an awesome deal that I couldn't refuse especially because the trim level I desired, was an SEL Premium with 4Motion, only had one color in stock. Red. Which I truly did not want but now it has grown on me. Eric Mak in finance was great, made the entire finance process so easy and simple. I thoroughly enjoyed the entire experience at VW. Everyone was so welcoming and friendly. Now, I can honestly say I love my new RED Tiguan. Definitely take that first step like I did!
michele miller
Doing business here is quick and easy. Thanks EJ for helping me from beginning to end and Erik for answering all of my many questions. I'm excited about my new ride. Come here for a pain free car buying experience.
Chris Rodriguez
There's providing "customer service" and there's providing "quality customer service," and Honolulu VW provides more than quality customer service. They helped me more than enough on a trade in and got me into a reliable car that I actually enjoy driving.
Helen Bujold
I bought my first car here and James was super easy to work with. I was able to get all the information I needed and felt very comfortable throughout the entire process. Would definitely recommend!
Felicia Clausen
As always great service! I needed to get some very stubborn water spots off my car. JP worked his magic and was able to accomplish this. Alyssa is always helpful and pleasant as well.
D R A M
EJ was fantastic, very professional and prompt with the car buying process from start to finish. He facilitated my experience coming back from deployment and needing a vehicle right away with a loaner and kept me informed with updates constantly. If you’re looking for an honest salesman to help you out, this is your go to!
Thanks EJ
Key Cole
Great experience every single time I come to Volkswagen Jessica at the service desk always make me feels comfortable and informative of the services I seek plus more. Everyone is so friendly in many different ways. I enjoyed my last Volkswagen detail at such a reasonable price I even bought my Hyundai over to get best detailed. Jessica even offer me shuttle ride back onto military installation while I wait until all services are completed. Pricey on some things but of course it's a dealership. But I do have peace at mind if anything is an issue I will be well taken care of.
Alexis Dominguez
Today was an amazing day! Thank you Brandon for your expertise! I can’t believe we’re driving off the lot with such a gorgeous car. He was so knowledgeable and worked extremely hard to make sure that all our needs and wants were met. 10/10 service.
Bryce Gesick
Bought an '08 Honda CR-V used from EJ here last Sunday. Had a fantastic experience, honest conversations, and was provided everything I needed to be confident in my purchase. They offer patience in the process, articulation in the deals, and all the while comfort is the only thing experienced. I will remain with this company and this sales representative for the remainder of my time on island.
Jonathan Murai
James was low key and I did not feel pressured to buy a car. He was responsive to my emails when I first started looking at VWs online. The search feature on the website is good. The facility was clean and modern.
venice terrell
.thanks to EG and the good people at Honolulu VW ...aka..miracle workers..
Many mahalos
Cassie Messer
We had a fantastic experience! Brandon was great with answering any questions that I had about the car, and made the experience very seamless. I already had the car I wanted picked out, and he had it ready for me to test drive when I came in.
Joseph Mama
Jessica at VW Honolulu made my Service Department experience enjoyable. Most people don't want to take their vehicle to the service department in the first place and usually might not be in the greatest of moods. Jessica was very personable and made me feel at ease during my time there. The service was very quick for my "low tire pressure" and "check oil" issues and I was out of there in no time!
Edwin Bolosan
Customer service here is excellent. I went here just to pick up parts I ordered online, but the treatment I received upon arriving was very pleasant and enjoyable. Sales guys were very helpful to point me in the right direction. The parts department is also very easy to deal with. They were very helpful and made sure everything I ordered was correct. I wish I bought my GTI here. Thank you Honolulu VW!
Thomas Obungen
Service: Easy to set an appointment online. Arrived 10 minutes prior to my appointment, Alyssa checked me in and I opted to wait at the dealer until my vehicle's service was done. The fast wifi helped me get some work done too. Finished up with a wash and I was ready to go in about 1.5 hours.
Shauna Hannings
Today I just wanted to test drive a VW Beetle, but ended up leaving with it. Livingston was so easy to talk to, I felt his excitement for me was real and not just to sell it. He was just overall nice, and worked hard to make sure I was getting what I wanted and the best deal. Thank you!
Julie Estrella
I love bringing my Atlas here. It was super easy to book an appointment online and everyone is so friendly and helpful. I also love the convenient shuttle that gave me a ride to work, as well as picked me up when my car was ready. Keep up the great work Honolulu Volkswagen!
Mandy Aila
Great service! Friendly staff 🥰 Jessica Balles in the service department is amazingly helpful! …
Wiljohn Ho
The first impression I have of Volkswagen Honolulu is family. The fine staff there at Honolulu Volkswagen really help take the pressure off purchasing my 2020 Jetta GLI. A huge two Shaka thank you to Emma at Sales for one of the best car purchasing experiences I ever had. Amazingly friendly and courteous super out going to make my experience something I will never forget.
Jareliz Guzman
Jessica Balles from the service department is exceptional. She’s the reason why I keep coming to Honolulu VW. She is very nice, sweet and helpful. She definitely knows what she’s doing. Everyone else is also very nice and helpful but she’s the best! The mechanics also does a great job. Haven’t had any problems taking my car to them.
Jacqueline Frost
I saw a nail in one of my tires so I went straight to VW. Jessica greeted me by my name and in her usual friendly manner asked what she could do for me? We went to my car so I could show her. I needed to go to the airport so she called the van service but the driver was far away so Jessica told me to wait inside. My car was done in 15 minutes! Amazing!
Jesse Voelk
Great car buying experience. No hassle, fair prices. Corey was very helpful. He listened and worked hard to get me the best price. None of the high pressure tactics consumers hate, just honesty.
Kira Au
This is the place to come when you are looking for both exceptional service and a great deal. Everyone working here was super friendly. EJ was our salesman and was able to get us out of a car we were unhappy with and over paying for and into a brand new 2019 Jetta. He is awesome! Ask for EJ if your in the market for a car. You will not be disappointed, we're so happy with our new car!
josh guillory
I went to Honolulu Volkswagen and even though I didnt have much of the current car I was in, Livingston Rowan and the financial department were able to work that dealership magic and got me and my wife into a new Jetta that I never thought I would have been able to afford. These guys go above and beyond to make sure that the customer always comes first. Superior service through and through. Definitely recommend Livingston Rowan and his outstanding team at Honolulu Volkswagen to fulfill any need. Thank you guys.
Casey Lentz
The buying experience at Honolulu VW was perfect. I worked with Livingston Rowan and he was very knowledgeable on all the cars that I was interested in. He made the transition from my old lease to a new a breeze. I highly recommend stopping by for all your car purchasing needs.
Bryan Overton
I have been a customer of Honolulu Volkswagen for about three years or so. I came to Oahu with a 2015 Golf GTI that I was very fond of. Honolulu VW did a good job taking care of the 20K and 30K maintenance and a couple of recall items on the car. Some dealerships throw in random fees to your service charges, and unfortunately my experience with Honolulu Volkswagen wasn't any different. I think it's just part of the business, so be sure you read your quotes before and after your maintenance and question anything that doesn't make sense. Every charge should be able to be fully explained as far as what you are actually paying for. In my case, after some questioning, the random fee was dropped.
The service department also replaced a headlight that had malfunctioned but since it was under warranty, it was of no cost to me. My only complaint was that I waited 8 hours at the dealership because I kept being told that they were almost done fixing it when in reality they weren't. While this was a frustrating experience, it put me in touch with one of their salesmen, Jeremy who helped me pass the time by letting me test drive a used Audi A5 they had sitting on the lot and chatting when he wasn't busy.
It's easy enough to order through their parts department. I've ordered a set of monster mats, a custom dash cover, and 4 new tires from them. However, I had an issue when it became time to install the tires. I was contacted that my tires had arrived and I scheduled an appointment to have them installed. The day of my appointment, I received a voicemail saying that they had realized one of my tires did not match the other three and that I would have to reschedule. It should go without saying that I was frustrated.
It was good that I became aquaintances with Jeremy, because when it came time to find a car more suitable for my growing family, he was able to help. He and another salesman Corey hooked me up with a new Tiguan.

Just bought a 2015 Jetta TDI, and I am extremely satisfied with my purchase. I was helped by a representative named Emma, who provided outstanding service and made the entire buying experience satisfactory. I didn't know much about the vehicle and took over a week to make my decision, but Emma was very patient and educated me with lots of technical knowledge which helped me make my decision. Overall, I am extremely happy with my new vehicle and would definitely recommend others to stop by Honolulu Volkswagen.
Caylen Gines
Emma was fantastic. Came in looking for a different person but they weren’t in so she helped me. She was very patient with my crying kids and more than willing to help. I would recommend seeing her or any of the helpful staff there. Her manager was very honest with me too while getting me the right numbers.
Thanks VW! Loving being apart of the VW family
Jennifer Acoba
Michael - The Service Manager was exceptional! Thank you!
Richard Thompson
Great experience in half the time! Normally once I've picked the car I want it takes anywhere from 4-6 hours to negotiate and get the paperwork done. The staff was welcoming and professional, an hour and a half later I was driving away in the car I wanted. Highly recommend!
Juliet Eiselstein
Purchasing the Jetta from Honolulu VW was awesome. The process was efficient; the people are very pleasant and took care of us. We drove test the car and drove home with it in a couple of hours. No one wasted our time nor were we pressured to buy. Truly a professional team and we appreciate the service that we received.
Asar Saint Lamont
My experience with Honolulu Volkswagen has been nothing short of an exceptional blessing. If I could leave several 5 star reviews I would and my reasonings for doing so would make this review extremely long so I will try to keep it brief.
First and foremost, a HUGE thank you to EJ. I recently separated from the military and, due to circumstances, needed to trade in my vehicle and leave island the same day. He worked exhaustingly with Jeff to make it possible for me to accomplish both. A part of that work was volunteering to handle my vehicle drop-off so that it could be shipped to the mainland. I was very stressed that day and did not know how I’d be able to make the drop-off in time so this was a huge relief. However, we were not prepared for the obstacles that would come. I needed to get more paperwork because of technicalities with ownership of the vehicle. That took a while. When EJ first attempted to drop off the vehicle he was told we needed more paperwork. That took some more time. Due to COVID-19, additional delays held up his attempt to drop the vehicle off. Another attempt, he was told, in error, that he needed additional paperwork. Finally, after more than a month later, EJ was able to complete the entire process which saved me an out-of-pocket expense trip back to Honolulu. I thank him very much for taken on this burden and truly felt like a family member because of his compassion for my situation. Without EJ, I would have had to accrue expenses during a time where work and travel is slow and unpromising. He saved me from doing so and has my gratitude. Thank you very much, EJ! I do appreciate it.
But it is to no surprise that EJ went above and beyond. For years, beginning with trading in my first used Volkswagen, I had to come into Honolulu Volkswagen for maintenance and repairs and each time I was warmly greeted and graciously taken care of by Alyssa. She always remembered who I was, what issues I had been dealing with before, and gave me the best selection of options to take when I had to make financial decisions regarding the vehicle. We all have had experiences at dealerships where the staff may be cold or tone deaf to you as a person and it was never my experience with Alyssa. Even when she wasn’t at her desk and I was greeted by another, when Alyssa returned she took over and we bounced into our usual rhythm. Thank you very much, Alyssa for everything.
The entire team has this persona. They’re welcoming, exceptional hosts, and compassionate people. They do their very best every time they see you and do so as if you were family because to them you are.
Thank you, Honolulu Volkswagen. My time on island has ended but I am very fortunate to have had the pleasure of being a part of the family.

Jessica Geese
My husband and I are the proud new owners of a 2019 Tiguan thanks to Eanjym! So far the process has been a breeze. I put in a request for a test drive online and the next day he called and we set up a test drive for later that day. Eanjym helped us make sure we were getting the best deal for us And it was a great experience! Would definitely recommend!
Robbi Kuester
My husband and I recently purchased a 2019 VW Atlas @ Honolulu Volkswagen. We had a wonderful experience. Corey, in sales, was very attentive, professional, and kind. He helped us find the perfect vehicle for our family and was very thorough. I appreciate his knowledge and patience. I highly recommend Corey and VW Honolulu
Lisamarie Bensman
My recent Jeep purchase was my very first time buying a vehicle through a dealership. I had heard that dealerships spring lots of fees on people, especially when buying used cars, and that one had to be super careful not to get ripped off or pressured into a vehicle that they didn’t want. So, despite doing a ton of research, I was more than a little nervous when I headed to Honolulu Volkswagen. I stopped at another dealership along the way and there was such a sketchy vibe at that place that I didn’t even stay to test drive a vehicle. Honolulu Volkswagen had none of that- no sketchy vibe, no high-pressure sales, no hidden fees or markups. Instead, there was a friendly, laid-back, no pressure atmosphere. EJ, the super awesome sales person whom helped me out, was quite knowledgeable, answered all my questions thoroughly, and didn’t rush me at all as I spent a good deal of time looking over the Jeep that I then decided to purchase. Price negotiations went better than I could have imagined. EJ showed me the CarFax report (which matched with what I had pulled online for the vehicle) and offered a price that was more than fair (again, matched with what I had pulled online as a very good price for the make, model, and mileage) with no unexpected fees. Volkswagen even gave me a warranty, something I was definitely NOT expecting when purchasing a six-year-old vehicle. The entire process took somewhere around 2 hours, including the loan paperwork, which I was able to do through my credit union but completely at the dealership (full disclosure, I probably could have been out of there even faster, but I’m one of those weird people whom reads every line of the loan paperwork and asked questions on it, so that added some time for sure, but the finance person didn’t rush me at all). In short, I could not be more pleased with how it went, or more impressed with EJ and everyone at Honolulu Volkswagen. My family plans to purchase all of future vehicles through them. It been about a month and a half since my purchase and my Jeep is running great- I love it and have received so many compliments on it. So glad I went to Honolulu Volkswagen. I cannot recommend EJ and Honolulu Volkswagen enough.
Everette Bussell
I recently purchased a vehicle at volkswagen, Brain was very helpful in the process usually dealerships try to keep you at the location no matter what. They were very relaxed I was able to go get food half way through the sales process and didn't get a million phone calls asking if I was still coming back the car wasn't as clean as I'd expect after buying and it was missing two tire stem caps but Brian quickly fixed the cap situation. Over all I was happy with my experience.
Tracey Hernandez
Me and husband recently moved to the Honolulu area and we needed a car. We went to Volkswagen Honolulu we work with Brandon and Kyle and they were very helpful with finding us the perfect Jetta for us. If you are ever in the area you should definitely stop by and check them out they were great 👍🏽 awesome service we can’t complain everyone here is very friendly and kind.
Daniel Tirado
Mike with the Service Department helped out my wife and I with some of the best customer service we have ever received. His friendliness, communication, and overall positive attitude were awesome! This VW will definitely continue to have our business. Thanks Mike!
Everett Jellinek
I bought my VW second hand, still in warranty, so I take it here for service. I have worked with both Vanessa and Alissa in the customer service department, and they are both excellent. I'll give you an example. I took my car in for its 20k mile service, and the tech discovered an oil leak and a coolant leak. Alissa made sure my car's warranty covered the gasket replacement as well as the water pump, thermostat and coolant and all the labor that went with it. Didn't cost me a dime. A week later, a coolant union fails. I called at the end of the day and Alissa told me to bring it in the next morning. The repairs were going to take longer than estimated so they gave me a sweet loaner car, as well as detailed my car and filled the tank for the inconvenience. If I have a VW, I will take it here as long as they work here--they are fantastic assets to Lithia, and to the VW brand.
Stephen Turpin
Great service done right and quickly! Went in for an oil change, and ended up addressing a recall issue and a couple small fixes covered under warranty. All done in under 2 hours. Thank you for making it all happen in one visit and on a Saturday!
jules sualog
I recently made a purchase from this dealership. Everyone was friendly and answered every question I asked. The actual purchasing process was efficient and surprisingly quick. I would like to personally thank James who was there through the whole process from the initial phone inquiry to me driving off the lot.
Shelby Davoren
EJ made it really easy to trade in our car and get the best value towards a new car. He also helped us figure out which car would help fit our growing family’s needs. Easy to work with. Made it a really simple process.
Krista Wilson
Such a wonderful no nonsense car buying experience. I told them what I wanted to buy, pay, and trade, and they said no problem. I got the exact deal I wanted on a brand new GTI thanks the Edin! Who is awesome.
Edit: Went in for my first oil change. The staff at this dealership are amazing! They offered to take me home so my 1yr old and I wouldn't have to wait. The service took less than an hour and they washed my car for free. Everyone was so kind and thoughtful, employees played with my daughter and spoiled her rotten with treats.
I've never experienced this kind of kindness at other dealerships, I believe I will stay with Volkswagen for the years to come.
joe cicak
Emma and Livingston were amazingly helpful and a pleasure to work with! They were available to help and worked diligently to find a car at a price that worked well for everyone I would definitely recommend this dealership
summer holland
This place is so lively, full of energy and good vibes all around. Brandon and Kyle made it easy to sell my car to Volkswagen. I appreciate the aloha spirits, first thing walking into this office I was offered refreshments, appetizers and a comfy place to sit. Keep up the energy its contagious. Mahalo!

Top VW location on island. James in sales was terrific! He was honest and realistic and helped us figure out exactly what we were looking for. I truly appreciate this VW sales team and how great they were to work with.
Megan Lewczyk
I’m very happy with my experience with Honolulu VW during COVID. We worked with Jeremy and EJ to set up an appointment via text message to come in to trade-in/lease a car and also change the oil on another car in one 3 hour block of time. EJ was attentive and honest, helping us find the perfect fit for our family and helping us get in and out efficiently while our baby slept. We would work with EJ again for any future car buying needs. This is our fourth VW and we’ve never been disappointed.
Bill Miller
Great stress free experience with EJ my salesmen and Jeffrey Ramones the manager that took care of me during the car buying process. Jeffrey was very transparent on the price of my car and discounts available unlike the other VW dealership on the island. If you're looking to buy a VW ask for EJ and Jeffrey you won't be disappointed they where very knowledgeable about the car and where able to answer all my questions. When I visit a dealership I'm very educated on the car I'm looking to buy. This is my test when it comes to the sales team if I know more about the car than they do I turn around and look for a different dealership. If they don't take the time to learn the product they are selling it's a clear indication of a dealership that don't care about you or the cars they are selling.
Derek Sandoval
Livingston Rowan, top notch professional salesman. Was able to meet all request and got this young Marine his first car with 2.9 interest. Highly recommend you come here because everything is straight forward and no BS just professional all the way.
Vana Alindajao
We had a great experience at Volkswagen Honolulu. Brandon and Jeremy were friendly, professional and knowledgeable about their craft. We walked away with the perfect vehicle for our growing family thanks to these two men! Please go see Brandon when you get a chance! Aloha.

Emma Fujimoto (hope I got her last name right) was my saleslady that helped me when I went to Honolulu Volkswagen. I really enjoyed having her help me. She was so kind, and friendly....very personable, and NOT pushy at all......she also was VERY PATIENT with me (I can be a real talker sometimes). She listened to what I was looking for in a car, and gave me great suggestions, and had no problem with letting me test drive 2 cars.....unlike some other places because of the "COVID19" !! What I really like too is that she kept in touch with me after not finding a car to my liking that day, and sent me suggestions of cars she thought I might like ! Unfortunately for her I didn't find a car at Honolulu Volkswagen or anywhere else for that matter, so I decided to have some work done on my 13yr old car. If, or when, I do need to buy a newer car, Emma will DEFINITELY be the first sales person I contact !!!
Chelsea Stephens
Worked with EJ to buy a certified pre-owned Jetta and he was great. Very friendly and worked with me and my credit to get the best deal with my trade in. They also made sure my new car was spotless before I left the lot which was amazing.
Robert Trout
The purchase experience was good, told them what I wanted and got a fair deal on a used car. I am not opposed to a business making money. Bought the lifetime oil change so will have to see how that works out in about three months. Upon delivery was quite disappointed at the quality of cleaning they performed. Looked like they wiped it down with a wet, dirty rag and sprayed some tire shine on the way out the door. "How we do one thing is how we do everything".
Claire Fricke
Can't say enough about how wonderful Jeff was and how easy he made the process of leasing a new car as our previous lease was coming to an end. Don't know what we would have done without him! He called, texted, and stayed in contact to talk me through every step, and answered every question I had. Love our new car and love the Volkswagen family. Mahalo Jeff, can't thank you enough!
Neicee
I went in there and knew exactly the type of vehicle I wanted. I knew exactly the features I wanted on my vehicle and EJ helped me with all of that. He sat me down and asked me what I wanted instead of just showing me vehicles. I appreciate him doing that because he didn’t have to do that. EJ helped me get the vehicle I wanted and I would recommend going to talk to him. He will ask you what you want and work to find it!!!!!!! Thank you!
DeAnne Howisey
Our experience with Honolulu Volkswagen was excellent. Our sales contact, Eddie Begic was professional and handled the transaction exactly as we requested. The dealership was friendly, the facility clean and the car in beautiful condition when we took it home. Eddie went above and beyond our expectation of customer service. We will definitely utilize Honolulu Volkswagen again and refer friends to them.
Jessica Townsend
The team at Honolulu Volkswagen was outstanding. I had my Volkswagen Rabbit for 11 years. Over the past year it had been damaged a fair amount and could no longer pass state inspection without significant repairs. The service team, specifically Jessica, was extremely understanding. When I mentioned trading in she set me up with EJ, my sales rep. EJ is a super motivated and positive salesman. He set up a test drive for me before I even got to the dealership within 30 min. I instantly fell in love with the car and the team worked with me to get the price down to something that would work for me. It felt like the entire dealership worked together to get me the best deal they could. I came in a little before lunch and left the store shortly after with a brand new VW Tiguan, and I couldn't be happier. Here's to another 11 years with Volkswagen!
Patti Coale
How often do you walk up to the front door of a car dealership get greeted by a salesman (saleswoman in my case) and buy the car of your dreams in an hour? Never? It happened to me. I did most of my consideration while driving the roads of highway, scoping out what I wanted. I had narrowed it down to two manufacturers and VW was the second one I went to. I test drove a big SUV and there was no inventory so while the saleswoman looked up when new units were scheduled to arrive, I browsed the showroom. I came across a fire engine red Golf and got in (why not, I was on hold for the moment). Much to my surprise, it fit like a glove and was seemed state of the art for me, a 56 year old lady. When she returned, I ask her if I could drive one. I did and loved it, bought it and I am so thrilled with this car. I've bought about 15 new cars in my life including a V-6 5-speed Jetta years ago. This car is perfect for me and they got the deal done so fast which is the part I hate most. I hate getting trapped while the sales people fun back and forth trying to put the deal together but that didn't happen here thankfully! I even met the GM while I was there and she was also, no pressure and couldn't have been more friendly (that happened before I ever drove the Golf)! This dealership is fantastic top to bottom as far as I'm concerned.
Sophia Epps
Jessica in the service department was wonderful during the entire process. They addressed the issue that I brought my car in for, and also identified future, preventative issues for my consideration. The facilities were excellent as well. Entire staff was friendly.
Nai Cronkhite
Jeff really helped me out a lot with purchasing my first car. Overall the whole staff my friends & I came in contact with today were very friendly! I would highly recommended Honolulu Volkswagen if you’re looking into purchasing a car.
Steven Carlson
EJ was very patient and helpful with me. As well didn’t treat me as a custom ,But like one of his family member. One of the best car dealership I been too in my life.
Adrienne Robillard
I bought a Tiguan in June and the buying experience was smooth and professional. EJ is organized, knowledgeable, and professional. We looked forward to seeing him again. He is pleasant to work with and he drives a Volkswagen too. During this pandemic he is always wearing a mask and that is reassuring as it’s a weird time overall to be out shopping.
I bought my Tiguan with confidence and my husband went back the next week and bought a GTI from EJ. Now we have modern cars and can enjoy family drives. Top customer service!
Kyle Belote
Ivan was a great help, knowledgable and friendly. I enjoyed his pleasant countenance and appreciated his candor. The place was clean, and it was nice to hear the coworkers interact with each other in an open environment. Honolulu knew my needs and my limits and worked hard to deliver. I recommend Honolulu Volkswagen. If you stop by, look Ivan up.
Vanessa Wang
Alex in sales was a huge help to me. I only bought from this dealership because out of everywhere I went he was by far the most willing to work with me to save me time and with 2 babies that was priceless. Got exactly what I wanted with the least amount of time and work on my end! Thank you so much!
Myles Yu Asensi
Phenomenal Experience with Honolulu VW. Thanks to Ken, I got a great deal on a brand new GTI. A very professional and polite salesman, who is quite attentive to the customer's needs. He showed me the vehicle I wanted and got right down to business, showing me each and every feature that came with the vehicle, providing me all the details I needed to make a decision, while assuring me that there was no pressure if I decided against the purchase. He walked me through all the steps which made the whole experience even easier, quick and painless. I'm extremely excited about my new GTI! Highly recommend to anyone who is searching for a vehicle to go and sit down with Ken!
Dionté Harrilal
Good customer service here, I appreciate the transparency. First time closing a deal at a dealership, Livingston and Brandon were understanding; very helpful throughout the process!
DOWN2GO Films
Called, walked in and signed for our very first VW vehicle all within 24 hours. Shout outs to Jeff and James for their outstanding customer service! Thank you for going above to provide us the best rate for financing and welcoming us into the VW Ohana. Highly recommend VW Honolulu!!
Rhonda
The whole experience was awesome, from picking out a vehicle to driving off the lot. The whole Volkswagen family truly treated me like I was Ohana.
Eddie, is a great salesman, I told him what I wanted and he was able to accommodate me with what I wanted. Besides I already knew what I wanted and so did Eddie, so there was no problems there.
Thank you again Honolulu Volkswagen for such a smooth experience in buying my Tiguan.
Thomas Abril
The service was excellent. I was surprised that I was called the day before that my appointment was scheduled. I asked about my defective horn and it was taken care the same day. I was informed about an oil leak and that was the following week in reasonable time. Most of all the Service Manager was professional and informative.
W124 Convertible
Excellent sales experience with Livingston Rowan and the entire team. He was patient with my questions and concerns. In the end I got a great deal on a great car.
Geena Evans
Had the most easiest successful experience with Volkswagen Service Team! Jessica was phenomenal and even remembered my name from a different visit! They are always so helpful and welcoming and get things done in a timely manner! Thank you so much!!
Matt Holmes
I am not one to write reviews, however I felt compelled because I had a great experience buying a car here. I have bought many cars before and like many others I have had several unpleasant experiences. From shady salespeople to greedy finance managers, the industry as a whole has created what can be a very combative and intimidating experience. I had done my research and knew the vehicle I wanted as well as the price I was willing to pay. I then walked into Honolulu Volkswagen with my "game face" on expecting to go to battle. However I am pleased to say I never had to battle. My salesperson Darien was helpful and at no time did I feel pressured. We sat down with the gentleman who is responsible for financing and everything was clearly laid out including the money factor. The pricing was fair and there was no ridiculous markup above the MSRP that some dealers like to tack on. Finalizing the deal with the finance manager was simple, quick and painless, just as it should be. To top things off I received a box of VW branded swag as part of a holiday promotion. Consider me stoked! Lastly, I would like to mention the General Manger Angela who was most welcoming and very helpful in addressing a problem with the vehicle I had traded in. I realize I can be a difficult, demanding customer as we all should be but kudos to Darien, Angela and the rest of the team for a smooth, painless transaction. I was fully satisfied with my experience and look forward to purchasing my next vehicle here!
NICHOLAS Jacobson
EJ is the man! The entire staff is very welcoming and I had the best experience. EJ was very polite and got me into the exact car that I wanted. He met all my needs and went above and beyond to get me the best deal. I would recommend this location to anyone. I will be doing business there again.
F. Ché H
Excellent experience. Smooth and very easy. I knew what I wanted but was unsure if I wanted a new vehicle. My salesperson Jeff Ramones was awesome and very knowledgable. His enthusiasm was part of why I made the deal.
Ting Wen
This was my 2nd car bought from here!! Very clean environment & complementary coffee with variety of flavors. Excellent and professional customer service, I just want to say a big mahalo to Brandon & Jeff who was really helpful to assist me got what I wanted. If you want a VW, definitely go from them!!
Javier Terrones
I just leased a brand new car at Honolulu Volkswagen! 2019 VW Tiguan! It’s awesome! We had the privilege of working with Corey Dorohue, whom is an amazing and caring sales person! Even though he worked with us for a bit, he took the time to ensure we were right fitted with the perfect vehicle that met ALL of our needs! We went back and forth over older models, buying, leasing, and whatever, but in the end his first suggestion ended up being the absolute perfect one. We wanted to trade in a van we would have been upside down with and made our situation worse had we bought the first couple options we thought was right. In the end we got a killer deal and even got some cool VW swag to go with our new car! Thank Corey! Your attention to ensuring we had exactly what we needed and should get is very much appreciated! Go see Corey... a salesman who cares!
Libby Myers
I am loving my new Tiguan. I felt very well cared for and listened to by Kyle, my sales person. He wasnt pushy or “salesy” which made the experience of buying a car so much better. He is genuine and I felt he had my best interests at heart. Thank you!
Bobbi Edwards
Trouble free. The service department has been responsive and helpful. Ray takes the time to explain the process and answer all of my questions. The shuttle service is greatly appreciated!
Hawaiian Kingdom
This was my 1st new vehicle purchase ever, as someone in a similar field I can appreciate what was done to earn my business.
thank you for a great experience.

I write this review with aloha, as it is exactly what you will receive when you visit Honolulu Volkswagen. We have had the pleasure of purchasing a couple of vehicles from them. Every time we walk onto the lot we feel like we are visiting Ohana.
This past week we purchased another VW from Livingston Rowan. He is exceptional and has the knowledge to work through their inventory to find the vehicle that worked best for us. He relieves any added pressures that come with car buying. He made our experience fun, exciting, and memorable. Livingston is the man to help get you into your next vehicle. He will welcome you with open arms, E komo mai!
Eric Mak is their Financial wizard that helps to finalize all the paperwork involved. He is professional, personable, and makes it feel effortless. He has been doing this for many, many years and you can trust your in good hands. He’s also the man to see if you want to pick up some extra warranty and a service plan for your new ride.
Each and every team member at Honolulu Volkswagen is so patient, kind, and they go above and beyond to make your day special. We especially enjoy their smiling faces and acknowledgment when we walk through the showroom.
We love how knowledgeable the Service, Parts, and Repair/Tech departments are here at Honolulu Volkswagen. Every time we bring our vehicles in to be serviced, we are pleased with the work they do. We are confidant in the entire staff and how dedicated each person is to making it right and being the best at their job.
Above and beyond is where the team at Honolulu Volkswagen will go. Please give them a chance for your next purchase, you will not regret it.
Mahalo to everyone at Honolulu Volkswagen for working so hard and making us feel like Ohana!
Much Love and Aloha-Kimberly and Haili
Joey Dewater
Sage helped me with my Golf Sportwagon purchase. Great team. Really awesome about listening to what I actually wanted rather than trying to sell me whatever they were trying to push. Finance team was also wonderful!
MJ Culvyhouse
My 2017 Golf SportWagen is everything I have ever wanted in a car. My last Golf was a 2-door and was with me for 18 years. It was time to look for another car, and I had no doubt what I wanted. I have more passenger and trunk space now, thank you for the perfect car!
I had my first service to change my oil yesterday, 10 Months later, and the staff was incredible. I am grateful everyday for my car :)
Andrew Leaf
Accurate online inventory, close to the airport (roughly 15 minute walking distance), friendly staff, and a nearby area to try out your vehicle. I recommend taking with Livingston about whatever car you were looking at online, he'll find it shortly and he'll you updated if there are any issues.
Sean & Jodi Lee
It was a Monday morning and I had my Costco registration sheets on-hand for a couple of car dealerships to begin my search for my new car for January 2020.
My second stop was Honolulu VW on Nimitz Hwy. My assigned salesperson was Emma F.
I was friendlily greeted by Emma and she politely asked me the various questions to narrow down the specific vehicle for my needs.
Through this process Emma was mindful in explaining the details and procedures of every pertinent information that a potential buyer would need.
From our dialogue and with the meeting of her sales manager, Mr. Jeremy, little did I know by the end of the evening that I would be going home with my new vehicle for the new year!!!
Emma and Jeremy were indeed an impactful duet and assisted me in moving forward at my own pace and comfort level in making this positive decision.
Jeremy, did go that extra mile ( pun intended) by listening to MY needs and worked with me to satisfy every detail of our transaction. I love my vintage VW blanket and VW Christmas ornament,....mahalo Jeremy!!
The Atlas VW is what I’ll be grooving in for the next three happy years.... Danke!!
The several hours that I was at this VW location, the entire VW Team collaborates and synergies with their clients with ALOHA!
Bravo... and I look forward to my new partnership with Honolulu VW !!
Joel-Marie Kusunoki
I love my new Volkswagen Jetta SEL! We came here just to look and we ended up with a new vehicle. Everybody from the salesman to the sales manager and the finance manager were awesome and easy to talk with. Didn't feel any pressure and didn't have to take any insults like other dealerships give you. Thank you Honolulu Volkwagen!
Britagne Johnson
It was a very chill experience. We didn't feel pressured to buy anything and when we did make our decision EJ was very helpful and willing to move the price as much as possible. EJ and the whole staff were very nice. Definitely planning on buying my graduation present from there!
Kawika Peterson
Three years ago I leased my first Jetta. I went back, and met with Jeff who basically sat and listened to what I expected this time around and listen is exactly what he did. He didn't try to "sale" me anything but he did present me with best available options. He also didn't come across as being a "pushy salesman," more like a member of my family, like a cousin. Long story short, it's much better when making a deal with "family" rather than a "stranger" who might want to take advantage of you. I had an awesome experience at HVW and will recommend my family and friends to, "Go see cousin Jeff" if they're looking to buy or lease a new car!
Kimiko Lightning
I had an amazing experience with Honolulu VW! The salesperson I worked with is named Jeff, and I recommend him highly! He genuinely cares about his customers and wants to make certain that they get the best match for their wants, needs, and finances. Honolulu VW and Jeff worked with me for over a month, and Jeff was able to find a deal and a car that worked for me and will help me build my credit. And I love my new car to top it all off!!!! To be honest, the general pushiness of salespeople can freak me out and send me running the other direction on most days, but Jeff felt more like a trusted friend. He is not your average salesperson! Honolulu VW did a great job--so if you're looking for a car, head their way!
Noe DePriest
Great experience that started with a phone call to Jeremy. Once I got to the store, I was helped by a motivated EJ. He showed me a gorgeous car and I was out of there in two hours in a brand new 2020 GLI!! Seamless experience!!
Brian Davis
Friendly and professional service. Staff is customer focused and very knowledgeable. The coffee machine here is a great touch.
Scot Nelson
The sales and leasing consultant (Mr. Edin Begic) treated us with honesty and respect and answered all of our questions. The model we wanted was not in stock and they ordered it for us without any argument, chicanery or severe bait-and-switch ploys. The car drove and handled nicely, better than comparable models for other brands that we test drove recently. We feel satisfied with this experience, which we found to be quite refreshing and pleasant compared to most of the other dealerships we have visited recently -- there was no sleaze at Honolulu VW!
Javaine Godoy
The first time we went to Honolulu VW, we were unhappy with the service and went to their competition, Tony VW. We drove off the lot with a brand new R-Line Tiguan. With the benefit of the doubt, we decided to try visiting Honolulu again. With the right salespeople, they will make sure you’re happy and drive off the lot happy. Thanks to Kyle, Livingston and Brant...my husband drove off the lot with his dream car, A GTI and his favorite color!!
Shy K
Jeremy is amazing. He made everything super fast and super easy. I came across a posting from FB in the car selection. I actually inquired about a used car that caught my eye. We communicated back and forth a bit. Than he came back with a better deal. He said that I was approved through VW credit for a new Jetta. That definitely peaked my interest. So we went down to check out a specific Jetta. We were welcomed immediately. They made us feel like we were important. The service we received from Jeremy and the VW staff was amazing. Everything was extremely fast. Test drive, finance office and waiting for the car to be detailed. Less than 3 hours. I'm telling you VW made is super fast and easy to get in and out and on your way. Definitely getting my next car from HNL VW and Jeremy.
Kelly Primacio
Honolulu Volkswagen provided my family and I awesome service. My salesman, Jeremy, was an amazing and expert advocate for us!!! He was very personable and authentic and he did a great job ensuring our voice was heard. He was able to get us a spectacular deal on a great running 2012 KIA Sorento that's fully loaded. This used vehicle is exactly what we were hoping to find in our price range and I am thrilled. My two girls have been spending Spring Break with our aunt so that I can go to work, so they don't even know that we got wheels yet :) I plan on recording their reactions later today and sharing it on my IG: @kellz_bellez Check it out to see the vehicle and their priceless reactions :) Huge MAHALO to Jeremy and Eric at Honolulu Volkswagen for being instrumental in my family's future and well-being!!
Fergtastic Family
It is very refreshing to bring your car in for service, and you are greeted with the utmost professionalism by every employee that you work with.
At Honolulu Volkswagen, they truly embrace the aloha spirit.
The work that they did, although routine, was perfect.
I greatly appreciate their service department.
Sincerely,
JF
Danny J. Morton
Jessica, maintenance service specialist, was stupendous. She was able to fit me in a very booked morning schedule, resolve my starter issue, and reset my check engine light quickly; with minimal costs. Courteous, professional, quick and savings, Mahalo!
Andrew Ray
Great Store and great welcoming staff. Livingston, Jeff, and Eric worked all day to help me and my hat is off to them. I left the store happy and feeling good about my purchase!
Randy Wong
We really enjoyed our new car buying experience at Honolulu Volkswagen. Salesperson Darien Sato and Eric Mak were super to work with; they were very personable, patient, and transparent. We are enjoying our new car and look forward to a great relationship with this dealer.
Cherie O'Connor
I love my Service Advisor Jessica Balles. She explains technical issues in an understandable manner and is very knowledgeable! The crew at Honolulu Volkswagen do their best to keep their customers safe on the streets.
Andrzej Taylor
Been awhile since I had a car and once I saw this beauty I deff had to have it. EJ deff made that happen and I beyond grateful for it, i have been cruising the island since then. He even checks up to see how things are going and has been on top of his making sure I was/am happy with my new car deff appreciate him and the #1 man you need to see if you are looking to get a car from Honolulu volkswagon. EJ you the man.
Lawrence Lurie
My wife and I recently leased a 2019 Jetta from Honolulu VW. I’m delighted to tell you that the three individuals who assisted us – Ivan Felix, Jeremy Fontes, and Erik Mak – truly provided an unexpectedly spectacular experience. Indeed, as someone who spent ten years with the number-one volume Audi dealership in America, my expectations of a far lesser experience were quickly dispelled.
During my initial investigatory visit, I was warmly greeted by Ivan Felix. After the perfunctory exchange of basic information, Ivan diligently listened to my stated needs and then professionally responded. During our test drive, he confidently answered my questions and endeavored to further pique my interest with each reply. After we returned to the showroom, Ivan asked Jeremy Fontes to help clarify several pertinent matters which were then still somewhat disconcerting to me. Jeremy immediately established a great rapport, and skillfully offered far more than superficial-yet-perfunctory input. I came back the next day with my wife, and she too commented on how surprised she was with the high level of professionalism and “warmth” shown by everyone in the store. Once again, Ivan made sure my wife was comfortable in every respect, and Jeremy deftly handled my myriad requests regarding the lease parameters. Our experience was consistently furthered during our time with Erik Mak, their finance person. Although I knew what to expect during this portion of the sales process, my wife had many questions and concerns – Erik patiently explained each step, and gracefully weathered my texting one of my contacts at Audi Financial Services when I wanted some “behind the curtain” information.
I must say that although the numbers (and facilities) are markedly different, our experience with leasing a vehicle from Honolulu VW rivals any we’ve had at Audi, Jaguar, or Mercedes dealerships on the mainland. I wholeheartedly recommend Ivan, Jeremy, and Erik – and of course the dealership – to anyone who’s considering buying or leasing a new VW on Oahu.
José Arroyo
Very good service. Quick response! Great communication, salesman Kyle got me a great deal! No regrets, finance department very helpful! I’ll consider this dealership over any other ones next time!
Leanelle Arista
Thought buying my first brand NEW car would be a nerve wrecking experience. But let me tell you, EJ made it so much easier and comfortable for me. EJ was very helpful and accommodating, especially when it came to choosing the right car for me and all the finances and stuff. I was so lost and confused with all the numbers all the other dealerships gave me, but man oh man. So glad I got my first brand new car at Volkswagen. Thanks EJ!
Katelyn Banyai
This has been probably the easiest experience my husband and I have had buying a car. Livingston Rowan helped put us in my dream car. We needed a new car because we had just had a baby and our car seat could not fit in our CHR. We went there trying to look at a used Passat and he helped us into a 2018 new Passat that day. Super awesome guy to talk to as well, really chill and we felt no pressure to buy whatsoever. Will be buying our next car from him and recommending him to all our friends. Thanks so much.
Kaylee Copeland
I really just want to take a second and talk about this amazing guy at Volkswagen. His name is EJ and he is the best I have dealt with in a long time. I walked in a few months ago and he walked me through everything. The good thing about him is that he isn’t trying to sell you just any car he wants to put you in a car that you love and can afford. When I first met him he got me approved with crappy credit and the month wasn’t expensive. I was a fool and turned it down. He never held it against me. I care back yesterday after hours and he work his magic once again. I ended up with a new car low payments and little monies down. Ej has now become family! If you ever need a new car, great deals and amazing care, go see Ej he works hard for you !!
Chris Arthur
EJ was very helpful, prompt and friendly. He took care of my concerns and made the whole process very smooth. Buying my new car through him using the online method eliminated all of the showroom discomfort. If you know what you want to buy, ask for EJ, he delivered on his promises for me. Thanks EJ!
Rayana Kealoha
I like to thank Jeff, Eric (financing), Brandon, and Paul Austin for helping me drive off the lot with a loaded truck! I was blown away by their sales team organization and customer service, all the way to the finance Dept with Eric. I am beyond greatful for y’all and will be back in the future. I recommend anyone looking for a new or pre owned vehicle to go down to Honolulu VW! Mahalo nui!
Christian Bitters
I had a seamless experience purchasing a used car from this dealership. James Lewis helped me from start to finish and I walked away very satisfied. Would recommend to anyone looking for a Volkswagen or other car.
Dylan Swanson
Buying a car here was easy and fair. I had James helping me through the entire process and got me a good deal. Thank you to this dealership.
dylan parker
All the staff is extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Livingston helped me find the car that fit my needs and then we negotiated a price that we could both agree on. highly recommend.
sarah guay
Randey Faulkner was awesome to deal with. He understood that as a mother of three young kids with a full time job, I didn't have time or energy to spend hours in the dealership negotiating. He worked with me via email to do much of the pre-approval process and helped me find two cars that would work for me and my budget. The cars were ready to go when I arrived--he even helped steer me toward a lesser priced vehicle that fit my needs over a more expensive option, which I really appreciated. The negotiations were very easy and low pressure--I would (and have!) recommend Honolulu VW to anyone looking for a compassionate, empathetic, efficient sales experience with down to earth folks. Thank you Randey and Honolulu VW!
Lauren Erdmann-Rued
Jessica was very helpful when I came in with our Jetta that we have had for only a month. She made sure we weren’t charged anything, and she waived the fee for a courtesy car since I live on base.
Jacalyn Macauda
Shayne was very helpful selling me my first used car. He showed me different options and made me feel very confident in my decision. Honolulu Volkswagen is a great dealership!
Michele U
I have bought a number of different cars from different dealers in Hawaii and would say that Honolulu Volkswagen would rate among the best. Much of that is due to my sales person, Edin Begic. He did not play games or give me the run around. I told him exactly what I wanted which was a GTI and how much I was willing to pay which was below the MSRP. They accepted my offer and I was out the door within two hours. I love my car and appreciated the no nonsense sales help. I would not hesitate to deal with Honolulu Volkswagen and Edin again.
Kathryn Grieco
I recently went into the dealership to buy a car from Alex Condon. Everyone from the dealership was so helpful, cheerful and greeted me at the door. Alex, told me every detail about the car I was thinking about getting and finally got me hooked! He was right, this car is fantastic.
Jessica Morris
We brought our vehicle in for an oil change, safety inspection, and to have a belt buckle replaced. We had a few communication issues but in the end everything was resolved and we were satisfied with the service.
Ash DeWitt
The sales rep My wife and myself had was awesome, we had an awesome experience and they did what they could to take care of us, know BS or anything like that, if you are looking for a vehicle I would suggest to go here if you are looking at VW, Jeff and his team were awesome and would do it again if asked!
Michael Taylor
Flew from Maui to purchase a used car I had been messaging a sales associate, Kyle about. Kyle was very patient as I had many questions and was uneasy about some of the process. He is the definition of 'killing it with kindness' They are helping in the shipping process to Maui to make it as easy as possible.
Klinton Kacatin
Jessica was amazing at providing excellent service.
Peyton Strong
Livingston helped us and made it SO easy to get a car! Really seemed like he cared for us. Great dealership and salesman
Jamie Akamine
Everyone at VW On Nimitz is very friendly and helpful !! James Lewis was our salesman I felt very comfortable and not pressured into buying a car !! Thanks guys I love my Atlas Cross Sport !!!
Lauren Okano
Dylan at the service desk was extremely helpful positive and professional. He provided me with clear information and helped get my car's needs taken care of in a flash!
I'm very thankful for my great experience at Volkswagon.
linda m Sweeney
Livingston and David helped us out. I’m nocturnal and came by a few times after closing to check out the car I wanted. They stayed late for me and ultimately got the deal I wanted. 10/10 would recommend.

My experience with Car Sales in the past is similar to a bad dental visit. But Honolulu Volkswagen is the exception. Their no pressure, laid back manner, relaxed me right from the start. Yasmin understood exactly what I wanted and walked me through each step fully. Jeremy answered every question I had and explained leasing vs buying ensuring I fully understood. In the end I got my Jetta, in my color, at the price I wanted. Thank you guys, you'll always be my car family.

Our service representative did an amazing job with making sure we had the necessary documents needed to ship our vehicle to mainland for our PCS move. He went above an beyond expectations.
Dan Bauer
Prompt, friendly knowledgeable staff and always very helpful.
Daisy Conduah
Excellent service by the VW team. Kristen provided exceptional customer service from setting up my appointment and providing me with information regarding all q's that I asked. Gary was excellent and he really took car of me and my vehicle. I recommend VW Honolulu Service dept to anyone requiring service. You won't regret it.
Tito Alexander
Honolulu VW is a great business with a friendly atmosphere where you don't feel the pressure and anxiety of most car dealerships.
From the time I got there, until the time I left with a new 2019 GLI, it was a good experience and Eanjym (EJ) was great to deal with and made me feel like Ohana while I was there.
I highly recommend EJ and Honolulu VW to anyone looking for a hassle free way to get a vehicle!
Kiyoshi Ono
The Salesperson (Livingston Rowan) and Sales Manager (Mark Sherlock) were both extremely accomodating and helpful in our purchase of a 2018 Golf GTI. Livingston, especially, helped us to make our decision during our test drive. He answered all of our questions and gave us all the information we needed to make our decision.
Kilafwa Albert
Came in with my cars transmission going out and needed a better vehicle. Brandon and Kyle helped me out with the whole process being simple and easy. I would recommend working with these guys on your next vehicle purchase!
Coree Valdez
Purchased a new VW Jetta SEL from EJ Sales. He sent me information through email of the different models and helped me with any info I needed to make a more informed decision. He was very knowledgeable and nice. Never felt pressured or hassled on the negotiation process either. I would recommend him and the dealership for your next car buying experience.
Chad
Special thanks to Allyssa for making our car buying experience wonderful. We really enjoyed the no pressure approach and absolutely love our new ID.4.
Frankie Mondik
Experience was exciting and pleasurable. We highly recommend this dealership to anyone who loves VW's. We visited quite a few dealerships and the VW dealership on Nimitz HWY, was by far the best. Location was clean, cars were clean, and sale consultants were friendly and accommodating. We did not experience any pressure from anyone here. Other dealerships in the area or cities within a 25 mile radius, were the opposite. Cars were not clean, and some vehicles had bugs inside, couldn't see out the windows during our test drives, it was unprofessional. Volkswagen was SUPERB in that department. We are more than likely to return to this dealership. Aloha VW!!!
Shawn Ocampo
Service agent Jessica B considerate communicates knowledgeable polite conscious leaves me with no false hope and integrity.

I had a great experience here finding my first car ever. Shayne went over and beyond to find me a vehicle that fits my lifestyle. More than happy with my new Tiguan !
Devaul Peterson
It’s was a pleasure doing business there. They look after there military and help with anyway they can. My man Jeff Ramones was on the scene and did it right. He was awesome to talk to and I didn’t feel pressured into getting anything. He helped me understand what I was getting. If anybody needs a car or an upgrade and don’t know what to get, talk to this guy. I appreciate it big time.
Lacey Kaneshiro
We went to Honolulu Volkswagen to check out a car we saw online. Jeff Ramones was very helpful, courteous, and personable. He answered all of our questions and let us take our time test driving the car. He even provided toys and snacks for our 2 kids! His customer service was outstanding, we never felt pressured to buy. We are very pleased with our car and would highly recommend Jeff Ramones to our family and friends!
Jeremy Harbottle
I came here at the end of their work day and they didn't seem to mind. They were helpful and informative. The teamwork they have doesn't go unnoticed. This was the best experience I've ever had at any car dealership.
Jordan Hunt
We went in to look at some of their used vehicles and after talking with Klinton and Emma we decided that our needs would be covered better with a new car for a better long-term reliability. So they worked with us to veiw and try out all the vehicles that would meet our needs and price range. The expertise and knowledge the staff were valuable tools for us to decide on which vehicle to get.
Thank you staff at Honolulu Volkswagen

I was really pleased with the assistance I received from your company, especially the salesman. Alexander was great. He answered every question I had and went the extra mile to insure I was happy with my purchase. I would recommend your company to my friends.
Shawn James
I love my Jetta. I went in knowing that i needed a 4 door car. Brian was patient and knowledgeable about the different trims and options. I ended up getting a Jetta SE and I love it. Thank you Honolulu Volkswagen for making my car shopping so great!
Aaron Escamilla
What can i say, quick and easy, no pressure, friendly environment and Livingston was a great at getting me what i needed and ensuring the purchase was nice and doubt free.
Deloris Hairston
The best place to get your VW serviced. Jessica is the best service advisor ever, so knowledgeable and efficient!
Also, if your interested in buying a VW see either Ms. Emma or Mr. Sage. They take time with you, and will not take advantage of you!
Aaron Cabatic

Like me, Id like to know ahead of time what's going on with my VW!!! 😉
Mahalo and I appreciate you and your team!!
Ashley Carolyn
This was my second time working with EJ at Honolulu Volkswagen. Each time my needs have been met and I was able to drive off with the car I wanted! Thank you for being so helpful!
Chandelle Dacosin
I have been looking for a vehicle for awhile now and found KYLE on Facebook. I don’t ever use my Facebook but decided to look for a car on the market place and luckily I got ahold of him. He’s awesome and is willing to help you any way he can. If you ever need a vehicle I highly recommend you ask for him. :)

Went in for recall work. Quick and easy. Mentioned a possible oil leak, within an hour of having the car they had done a complete inspection and called with an update. They kept it overnight for warranty work on the oil leak and called promptly when it was ready.
Kurt Yeackel
Great customer service from Kathleen Edwards (Katie)
Ben McCormick
Honolulu Volkswagen always treats me right. Working with Jessica is always a pleasure. They make sure my VW is in tip top shape. I always appreciate the friendly service and car wash. 🤙 …
Aaron Cope
Kyle and Brandon did a phenomenal service. Up and beyond to work with me being a first time buyer. First experience in Hawaii was pretty good !
David Jnr Keola
EJ is the man! The entire staff is very welcoming and I had the best experience. EJ was very nice and got me into the exact car that I wanted. I would recommend this location to anyone. I will be doing business there again.
Jill Barry
Had a great experience at Honolulu Volkswagen when shopping for a new wagon. They had a good selection to choose from and test drive. Sales staff was friendly and made the purchasing process quick and efficient.
Lonnie Westbrook
Honolulu VW was an amazing experience and to walk up to this place not even knowing I even wanted to buy a car. Livingston was an amazing sales consultant and even was very patient with us and we ended up getting a VW Tiguan right off the show room floor. Thank You VW family of Honolulu.
Deborah Bond-Upson
Mike and his team mates were so careful to describe the issues with my Tiguan. I very much appreciate the good swift work, the loaner car, and the cheerful capable team!
Ingabritt Backlund
Michael the service rep was very friendly and helpful! Convenient shuttle to take you home if the waits too long. Customizable service options! I’ll be getting my Golf serviced here!

OUTSTANDING SERVICE @ HONOLULU VW, WAYNE WEISENFLUH, Service Advisor. Puts that other dealership's Service Advisor to shame. My family and I lease a few VWs through the other dealership, but they can thank the incompetence/ongoing arrogance of their Service Advisor, "D", for this poor review of their service department and for us no longer willing to do business with them. Note: Because my sales person at the other dealership did exceed expectations, I was willing to accept prior negative experiences with "D", but this was the final straw.
Long story short: If it was not for WAYNE WEISENFLUH, Service Advisor @ Honolulu VW, I may have believed the outright lie "D" told me about the condition of my coolant and would have been out several hundred dollars and then some.
6/2015: Took my leased VW for service check to that other dealership. Upon pick-up, was handed the invoice, along with Multipoint Inspection List. Wasn't offered any explanation, by "D"/anyone, so I assumed all was well. In scanning the list, I saw the yellow box next to "Coolant Reservoir" checked, meaning "May Require Attention"; under "Comments": "COOLANT RESERVOIR CONTAMINATED WITH INCORRECT COOLANT."
Went to "D", asked him what it meant. Prior experience typically meant walking on eggshells when you had a question. Phrased my question accordingly. Said he had to check. ??? Returns. Informs me I or someone I permitted to work on the car contaminated the coolant.
??? I lease the car, I tell him, precisely for the reason that I do not know anything about cars!!! -- and WHY would I actually go somewhere to PAY for someone else to monkey with my coolant when leasing means having the convenience of that dealership's service department?? Still, he shows me the cloudy coolant - yes, it IS murky but I didn't do it, I tell him AGAIN.
The debate escalated. Utterly frustrated, I start to give in ... my word against his - he wins, since his technician supports him.
I ask how do I fix this? And what happens if I can't afford the repair right now? Then what??
"D" in his infinite smugness: "If you don't get it fixed, you'll do damage that will run a few hundred dollars more than it costs to fix it now - a few hundred dollars now will save you that money down the road." (His words etched in my memory.) AND ALL would be out-of-pocket costs because "I" or someone "I permitted" caused the situation. I left beyond frustrated because I KNEW NO ONE besides THIS Service Advisor's dealership had EVER touched my car.
1/2016: I live outside of town but thought I would give Honolulu VW a try. Justification: Nothing could be worse than dealing with "D" at the other dealership. And that's when I met WAYNE WEISENFLUH, their Service Advisor. Immediately a most pleasant exchange. Actually LISTENED to what I had to say. Told him what "D" had told me - to either pay out-of-pocket now to fix the coolant situation, since it was my fault, or wait and have to pay even more out-of-pocket because of further damage that would be sure to follow. WAYNE WEISENFLUH didn't buy it. He said they'd see what was going on.
And LO and BEHOLD ->>>> a 100% different story from what "D" fed me!!!
>>>>>> What was causing the coolant to look contaminated/murky was NOT my fault INSTEAD, it was caused by an INTERNAL LEAK!!! AND ultimately EVERYTHING related to that leak was completely replaced/repaired WITHOUT 1 CENT COST TO ME - ALL covered under VW warranty and ALL thanks to WAYNE WEISENFLUH.
And so my experience went -- he listened to everything I had questions about -- addressed each and every one, and then some -- explained the befores and the afters -- and did so graciously and knowledgeably. Perfect combination. One that will keep my family and me going back to HONOLULU VW.
Needless to say:
Trust factor - WAYNE WEISENFLUH, Service Advisor, Honolulu VW - 100%. Thank you, WAYNE!
Trust factor -- "D", Service Advisor, other dealership -- Zero. A shame 1 bad apple has the power to produce reviews like this and ruin it for the dealership he represents.

Had to fix something at last minute to pass vehicle inspection and Honolulu VW accommodated me without an appointment as soon as they opened. In and out in one hour and staff was very friendly, courteous and professional.
Rachel Gibson
I had a great experience with Keone....Honolulu Volkswagen was the first place that I started my search for a car to lease. I wanted to check a few other dealerships before I sealed the deal and found that the service and the prices that I was being quoted elsewhere were ridiculous and, in some cases, offensive. I felt that I was treated very fairly at Honolulu Volkswagen and I would definitely do business with them again... many thanks to Keone!
David Rosenbrock
Getting the appointment online was easy and quick. I was able to get my appointment the next day. I did not have to wait at the service desk when I arrived for my appointment. The service was completed when they told me it would be. The staff was curtious and knowledgeable. Overall, I was very satisfied with the service experience.
Ace Soll
Mahalo nui loa EJ, for making the leasing experience easy and fun. I loved my last car, and EJ and Erik made it simple to review choices and make the right decision, I love my new Tiguan!
Jackie
Just bought my 2018 jetta and I'm so stoked! Loke, Jeff and Mark truly made me feel that they were on my side and wanted me to get what I wanted! So grateful for "my team" because I drove off with the car I truly wanted and made no sacrifices on features! I felt they went over and beyond to help me! Thanks again!!! #6thVW #willbebackagain #forsure
Mike Deese
I really enjoyed the sales process with this team at Honolulu VW (Dylan, Ivan, Emma, and the other managers). It was a very pleasant experience buying my new GTI and I would recommend this dealership to others!
Dan Agee
Buying a car from off island can be a bit of a daunting task, but the minute I flew in from Hilo, took a cab to Honolulu Volkswagen and stepped out, my salesman Jeff Ramones was right out the door ready to help. I had done my research well ahead of time on the car I was looking to purchase (a 2017 Golf GTI) so I told Jeff right away that the first thing I wanted to do was drive. He went and got a set of keys and said let's go. I really didn't need much selling...the car did that itself, but Jeff really went above and beyond to offer me something more valuable than specs or information on the car. As a salesman myself I know it can by difficult to escape the stigma and persona associated with this title, but Jeff established something way more valuable to me than knowledge, he earned my trust and respect. I would highly recommend the entire team at Honolulu Volkswagen to anyone looking to purchase a new or used vehicle, with a special shout out to Jeff Ramones...Mahalo Braddah!
Fred Raymond
I just wanted to thank Jessica for her help. I needed a safety check but couldn't get one because of a cracked tail light cover. Jessica called around to get me a quote for a replacement but the place was not opened yet. So she gave me a contact number where I could get the replacement. Thank you Jessica
David Conner
With another little Princess on the way, it was time for PaPa to find a safe reliable vehicle for my sons growing little family. My search led me to Honolulu Volkswagen, after meeting Brandon, Jeremy, seeing the vehicle and test driving it, we need not go anywhere else. After a little back and forth Brandon and Jeremy we're able to get us into the vehicle we wanted and within budget but it wasnt until we met with Eric (finance guy) when it all came together. I am a happy PaPa knowing that my little Princess's will be safe when on the road I can sleep good at night.
If you want a painless experience in car buying see Brandon, Jeremy and Eric at Honolulu Volkswagen.
Shandon Wyler

This was my very first car buying experience and I am beyond grateful that James and Erik were able to meet all of my needs. They were very friendly and knowledgeable! Much appreciated guys!
Naia Lewis
I have leased two Volkswagon vehicles through Honolulu Volkswagen and I have to say their service is top drawer. Dillon Fujimoto got me my first lease on a jetta three years ago, and Jeff Ramones just leased me my new Passat. Both experiences were great and on this last round Jeff got me into a great ride at an awesome price and made it fun to boot. Make sure you ask for him!
Gary Dymally
Emma was very helpful. My wife and I leased a 2018 VW Atlas. Test drive was nice, we got to try all the features of the vehicle.
Tyrone Lei-Sam
Always professional. Fast and quality work done on my vehicle. Jessica Balles is always informative and honest about projected costs pertaining to my vehicles maintenance.
Jimmy Vandenplas
I recently worked with Livingston at Honolulu Volkswagen. He was very professional and helped me out with any request or question I had. I definitely recommend taking your business here. Great buying experience.
