Amazing dealership, no pressure/relaxed environment and very friendly and knowledgeable staff. Kyle and Nate worked hard to find the best financing for my poor credit. My cosigner lives in Mass and they drove all the way there and back just to have her sign papers for 10 minutes! They also drove 2 hours to pickup my trade-in vehicle and leave me a very nice loaner car until I could pickup my new car. These guys go above and beyond to help and accommodate you! If I could give more than 5 stars I would!!!! Will be coming back here for my next car.

By far the best car experience I have ever had. Gretchen was amazing, and let my wife and I take our time to make sure we found the right vehicle for us. Mark sealed the deal with a relaxed atmosphere while preparing all of our paperwork. Start to finish, well done. LOVE my Mazda 3 AWD!

Purchased a 2019 MX5RF...great experience. Got the best deal and the staff worked hard for the best financing. Even had most of the paperwork prepared prior to arriving. Can't say enough!

Bought a used car and dealt with many dealerships. Autex Mazda of Keene were the most professional. They know how to use the internet other than auto response. Bought an extended warranty and that was explained to be very well. Service gave me the information I wanted. I am not a big fan of cars. I like them to do what they are supposed to do. I bought a CX-5 and it is down right fun to drive.

I recently bought a CX9, my second car from Autex. My experience with Gretchen (my salesperson) was outstanding. Gretchen is capable, professional, ,and knows Mazda's inside and out. Pricing / and trade in values were more than fair and the experience was enjoyable and in no way negative. The most impressive thing about this dealership is their employees. They help problem solve situations for your benefit rather than selling you unnecessarily. They treat you well and they do what they say they will do. If I have an extended service they can arrange a loaner or give me a ride wherever I want to go. I have never had a dispute or disagreement with them in several years of ownership. Most importantly they have earned my trust as they are honest, reasonable and perhaps the best example of any dealership / service center that I have ever dealt with. Five stars all the way!

And today, after knowing that it would cost about $135.00 to have some buffing done to the car and paint touch ups, got a bill for $12.31. Extremely surprised. When queried, it was said "we take care of our customers." I have never had a bad experience with this service center or sales staff.

My husband and I have a Mazda 3. We have been talking about purchasing a new vehicle. We decided on the vehicle we wanted to see. We test drove the vehicle and decided we loved it and wanted to purchase it. Well in less that two hours we drove out with a brand new vehicle! Gretchen is amazing!! Tim got us an amazing deal for financing. The entire process was so easy. We would highly recommend giving them a try!Skip and Deb

Gretchen Jackson is so bright, efficient, candid and caring that you can only have a great experinceif you work with her at Autrex. She is a facilitator, with absolutely none of the obnoxious pushinessyou have probably come to expect when car shopping. It is a venture of cooperation and collaboration, and she is a pro. Her computer saavy and teaching ability was especially welcome when purchasing a CX3 with all the bells and whistles. It was a trek to get there, and I am so glad I made the trip and bought my wonderful car with her help and expertise.

Gretchen was our sales person. She was very attentive and we were surprised when she sat with us and walked through EVERY feature of the car step-by-step after we had purchased a car from her. We also really appreciated being able to test drive the car without a sales person accompanying us.

We were looking for a used pickup, when we found one at Autex. We had an appointment to go test drive but when we got there the truck was not there. Gretchen & Tim figured out a way we could test drive the truck without any inconvenience to us. Needless to say because of their dedication to make the customer happy, we were able to drive the truck & ultimately bought it.

It's been many years since my family bought a car at Autex, and I am happy to be back in the family. I worked with Gretchen Jackson who was responsive, helpful, and not at all pushy. She had answers for all of my questions, made sure I was not missing anything, was perfectly happy to let me comparison shop with other dealers, and came in on her day off to make sure that I could see the car I was interested in. The car I purchased (after a lot of research) was very fairly priced, in immaculate condition, and I am very pleased with my purchase. I'm looking forward to many years in my new (to me) car, and Autex will absolutely be on the list of dealers I consult in the future.

The sales staff was very kind and accommodating and very knowledgeable. They were not pushy and very understanding of our wishes for the particular vehicle that we wanted as well as what we had to trade. Adam our salesman was very knowledgeable regarding the car we wanted to purchase and explained everything in terms we understood. Highly recommend this dealership to anyone looking for a Mazda vehicle.

I had purchased a Mazda 3 from Autex in 2013 and recalled that the experience was pretty easy-going. So when I got a message from my prior sales person - Gretchen - that now was a good time to trade in my 2013, I decided to go in and see what could be done. With three kids in college we needed the payments to stay approx the same. A couple hours later I had purchased my second Maxda3 from Gretchen and I am just as happy this time as I was in 2013. She's easy to talk to and does not make the process the least bit stressful. I assume I will go back in three years and get another car from Autex.

I had been taking my old Mazda in for repairs for a few months and was satisfied with the service department. Then when I needed a new car, the employees treated me very fairly and were honest about the pros and cons of the cars I was interested in. They also went the extra mile to ensure my purchase was easy. Great experience, and now I have a great car!

Donald Class was great to work with. I had specific options that I wanted and the cars that were available in the lot did not have those options. Donald was very patient with me as I waited for the right combination to be found. He offered test drives in a variety of configurations, but I really would not take anything but a certain color with the safety/technology package. I ended up with a Model 6 instead of a Model 3 (with the correct color and options) at a very fair price. As long as you have reasonable expectations on price and are aware that they cannot sell a car for less than they pay for it, Autex will work with you. Right before my deal was sealed, there was a huffy guy that was convinced that by being arrogant, nasty, and rude that Autex would match his price just to shut him up. They didn't, he told his wife and dog that he was leaving, hoping that they would be stopped, they left (without being stopped), and then I stepped up and negotiated a very fair deal by treating them with respect and understanding the fact that the prices are negotiable but that the sticker prices are not marked up like jewelry of furniture. Check some of the websites that calculate what prices you can expect to pay. You won't look stupid if you do your homework.The time in the "interrogation box" when signing the final paperwork at delivery with the top manager is still an exercise in "Just Say NO" as multiple $500 options are offered as a "take it now or you lose it" in a flurry of up-selling, but Donald and the person that does the final price negotiating BEFORE the final sale are both fair without the "I will check with the manager" bull that is so common at dealerships. I will be buying another car from them again.If you WANT a certain option or documentation about an option, stand your ground. I was told by another employee that my option was not available and I would have to "settle". I called MazdaUSA and confirmed that the option DOES exist and the search was on. Donald got a sale out of it. (and he is a LOT of fun during the whole process).

This was my first time purchasing a new car and I couldn't be more happy with the overall experience I had with Autex Mazda. Donald helped me with the process every step of the way and made the purchasing a new car extremely easy. I highly recommend this dealership to anyone!

A 150 mile radius search for a very specific car led me to Keene, NH, and Gretchen. She was very responsive to all of my questions beforehand, and made me confident that the 100 mile drive would be worth it. When we got there the car was out in front ready for us. She went over the finer points of the car before we headed out for a test drive, and she programmed the dealership in the navigation so we didn't have to worry about finding our way back.Gretchen also has quite the sense of humor, and by the time we left there, I was pretty sure we had known each other for years. Everyone was very friendly and made us feel welcome. Thought for sure I would have to get a roof rack locally, but she remembered that was something I needed. They had one in stock and it was installed while we waited so the car was all set when I drove it off of the lot. Even though there are many dealers much closer, I am glad we made the trip. Car buying is something I dread, and they made it as painless as dropping that amount of money could be. Gretchen's attention to detail, sense of humor, and the general laid back feel of the dealership made it a really good experience. And the car is pretty cool too.

Working with Donald at Autex was such a pleasure. He is so friendly and makes the car-buying experience easy - there is no need to feel pressured and he has proven that. This was our second car purchase from Autex and Donald. Thank you.

I went to Mazda of Keene to browse new cars and Donald came out to the parking area to help me. I have purchased many new vehicles but I enjoyed this one the most. Donald was very helpful in answering all of my questions, I was a little nervous about changing my "brand" of car but Donald made me feel confident and comfortable in purchasing a new Mazda CX3. He made me feel like I was top priority, introduced me to all of the staff, explained everything in detail. I felt like we were old friends by the time I left. I'm looking forward to servicing my new car at this dealership. Donald is not only a great salesman but a great person.

They were amazing! Gretchen and Tim did everything they could to get me into a car. My credit wasn't the best and they pulled through! I didn't get what I went for but they put me into a really nice jeep that I fell in love with. I would recommend them to anyone!

I have been putting it off for too long. I dreaded going car shopping but it was time. I had been to other dealerships and I can tell you that working with Gretchen at Autex was awesome. She was patient, responsive, knowledgeable and thorough! She made my car shopping a done deal. Thank you Gretchen!!!

this is our 3rd mazda we got from Gretchen and the experience was just what we expected. Gretchen knows our taste by now and we fell instantly in love with the first car she brought out for us to test drive. And she took the time to answer my silly questions right away when I emailed her after bringing our car home.

So ichave never bought a brand new vehicle I have purchased many newer vehicles but never new but my wife wanted brand new so the last few months we have been searching here and there and went into Mazda a few times dealt with Donald once and Gretchen once seems I bought vehicles from her before I knew I could trust her so I brought my wife in and she loved everything about the Mazda cx5 (2016) we were able to test drive a few and with ZERO hassle I might add and decided after reading reviews on if we purchases a very nice cx5 I would tell anybody to buy here and go with a personality because everybody there has one

DECEPTIVE!!!! This dealership and the corporation have deceptive practices. If you lease a car and are thinking of turning it in early (not rolling into another Mazda)be prepared for a HUGE wake up call. Neither the dealership nor the corporation were friendly, pleasant or helpful. Upon discussing with them, they apply a differential fee and a disposition fee. So, they take your car sell it at an auction and you pay the difference of what they dont recover at auction plus a $300 disposition fee. Their website is also misleading as they tell you that you can call for an estimate of what would be owed at the time of terminationTHEY CANNOT provide this information to you. Mind you, I was going to finish paying out the life of the loan!!! Wouldnt a car depreciate after a year? Any normal dealership/corporation would be happy to get a car back with low mileage, less wear and tear and new tires. NOT MAZDAthey over extend and make the lessee make up the difference. They do not mention any of this as they are having you sign your life away!

Gretchen was very friendly she met me outside as I was coming in, I had found an vehicle online and excited to see it, she had it ready, answered all my questions in a very professional manner, the gentleman whom handled my financing (Mark?) so sorry if I got your name wrong, anyways he worked hard to put me where I was comfortable considering I was "upside down" with my trade, I would definitely recommend and return in the future. Great Experience!!

Gretchen made us feel totally comfortable the moment we walked in the door, all our questions were answered quickly and very informative with a great sence of humor thrown in, we were givin as much time as we needed to look over and get comfortable with the car we were looking to purchase.

I recently purchased a 2016 Mazda CX-5 from Autex Mazda dealership in Keene. I'm always skeptical going into dealerships, expecting salesmen that push you one way or another and managers that argue about prices. Prior to this vehicle I purchased a Subaru, it took me going to four different dealers before I found one with good customer service. This was the only Mazda dealer I have been to for this car! Purchasing this car was the smoothest, friendliest transaction I have ever had with a car dealer. Not once did I feel pressured or like I had to be defensive. Everyone was willing to work with me and accommodate what I was looking for and what I could spend. Adam, my salesman was knowledgeable, friendly and seemed legitimately caring about my needs and what I was looking for in a vehicle. They gave me a fair value for my trade in vehicle without any negotitating. This made me feel like they are honest and up frontwhich in my opinion is rare to find in a dealership. I recommend this dealer to anyone who doesn't want to deal with the typical, expected hassle of buying a car.

I recently purchased a new 2016 Mazda CX-5 GT from Autex over the internet via a bid request sent to various New England Mazda dealers that had a car in stock equipped (or could be equipped) per my specifications. Tim Machunsky, General Sales Manager, took my internet request seriously and provided the winning bid. Tim Hall, Customer Relations Coordinator, followed up with the detailed breakdown of the "Out-the-Door" price quote that I had requested before purchasing the auto (I needed verification that their bid indeed was a true "out-the-door" price before making the 2-hour trip to Autex to test drive/inspect the car and finalize the deal). When I finalized the deal, I was surprised and disappointed that Mark Eber, Business Manager, did not offer a Mazda-backed extended warranty. He said he could only offer a 3rd party (Portfolio} extended warranty which I later found out does not have a very good customer rating. If I want a Mazda-backed extended warranty, I will now have to purchase it separately from another Mazda dealer (probably the dealer that services my car) since I cannot include it in my Mazda Capital Services low interest rate auto financing contract. Make sure you do your homework on the Finance/Insurance items (auto loan, gap insurance, extended warranty, etc.) before finalizing your deal. Adam Houle, Sales Professional, was extremely helpful throughout the transaction and spent a great deal of time making sure that I was familiar with how to access and control all of the key technology and infotainment features of the auto before leaving the dealership. Adam and Tim Hall also made sure that all the additional accessories that I had specified were installed and the car properly titled and tagged (I'm from out of state) by the date that I had requested to take delivery of the car. Shortly after leaving the dealer's lot to drive my new car home, I noticed the "check engine" light was on. By the time I returned to the dealership, the service department had closed. Adam spoke to the service manager, Chris Barnwell, who was almost out the door about my situation. Chris promptly took my car into one of the service bays and personally ran a diagnostic test which revealed that the gas cap had not been fully tightened when the car had been filled with gas, as part of the delivery prep., earlier that day. This was one of the smoothest and most professional auto purchasing experiences that I have had and I would highly recommend Autex Mazda if you want a professional and "hassle free" auto buying experience. "Shop them Last" and you will see what I mean.

I inquired about a 2012 Ford Espace on a Friday through Autex's website and drove away with it on Saturday!! Adam made the whole process quick and easy for my family- we went in at 1pm and drove away with our car at 5pm. Autex was very accommodating with our young child and he was comfortable and happy there. We recommend Adam to anyone, he isn't pushy and makes sure you get what you are looking for. I am very happy with my escape and we look forward to doing more business with Autex soon. Thanks!

Gretchen Jackson was very good at helping me decide on my new Marzda. Went over everything about the car with me, and I feel that after searching several dealers in the area, that this is where I got the best deal and made to feel comfortable with my choice, would highly recommend her.

After our car was totalled we were unexpectedly thrown into a new car hunt. A search of the best 7 passenger vehicles brought us to the Mazda CX9. From working with our busy schedule so we could get a good test drive in, to the financing details, we were very happy with our sales person and Autex as a whole.

Highly recommend this dealership, this sales person (even though he didnt try to sell me anything). Donald listened to us, listened to our needs and put up with our numerous test drives. Autex and Donald were far more superior than any car dealership we have dealt with in the past. We will return for future purchases! Thank you Don!

Gretchen Jackson, our sales person did a great job. She spent nearly an hour going over the car after our purchase and it helped a lot. We would have been lost without the guidance. Spoke to the service manager as well; he gave me a tour of the shop. That helped as well. Thanks guys for a job well done.Bill & Sue

I needed a new 7 seater car for my family we didn't have great credit we got a flyer in the mail for Autex auto so I decided to give them a call to see if there was anything they could do for me. I spoke with Richard Roy and he was very nice I explained our situation and Richard told me to fill out an application online, filled out the application and that same day Richard called me back and told me what I needed to bring with us to complete our loan process then set up an appointment to test drive a minivan. Autex auto helped us get a loan to get into a car even with our credit. They are great at Autex auto when no one else would give us a loan they did!!! I will surely be referring all my friends to Autex auto when they are looking for a car and I will definantely go back there when I need another car. This is the Best dealership. Thank you all at Autex auto you have a returning customer.

This dealership and Adam was a great place to look for a new vehicle. The gave me an honest and fair quote for my old vehicle and made sure that I didn't buy anything without thinking it through. There was no pressure to get anything specific. When I finally decided to get my new vehicle, they asked me which one I wanted so they could get everything together before I arrived. It took about 15 minutes to fill out the paperwork once I decided on the vehicle.Adam maintained contact after the purchase to make sure the car was everything I was expecting. He was friendly and outgoing. This dealership is definitely the place to go if you want absolutely no hassle or fuss when it comes to getting a new car.Everyone from the salesmans (Adam) to the finance manager, to the person answering the phones were polite and patient as I asked my questions. I will definitely be recommending this dealer to my friends and family!

i bought my first used Miata from Autex almost twenty years ago - still in family. my current winter beater miata recently started acting up on weekend run to VT. i limped it to Autex and left it on a Sunday afternoon. they were responsive by ten AM monday. Realistic about goals and great initiative in seeking out used parts where appropriate. prompt and friendly calls and reassuring. bill was about half of what i had braced to pay. Chris Simeneau knows cars, but seems to know car owners even more. Just another reason that i miss living in Keene.ben brungraber

My husband and I enjoyed working with Donald Class in purchasing our CX5 Grand Touring Mazda. He was professional, courteous and well versed in the vehicle and its options. He took the time to demonstrate them twice for us and to listen to our concerns. It was also fun discussing beautiful Wells Beach. We plan to return to Autex for automotive service and purchases in the future.

Worked with Richard Roy great service from him as well as other staff members. This was the only dealership that didn't give up on me. Recommended 100% and my next car will be from them. My deal was hard due to my credit but they didn't see me as a credit score they saw me as a good person that had hard times. There FANTASTIC.

Donald Class in sales was highly knowledgeable and friendly without being over-bearing. No high pressure tactics at all! After listening to my wants and needs, he pulled up the car that I ended up leasing. Good guess Donald. Bright red with beautiful 19" wheels! I have never had a sales person spend so much time going over all the technology and features of my new 2016 Grand Touring CX-5. He also took me on a tour of the facility where I got to meet several of the service and parts associates. Tim the finance manager gave me plenty of financing options and took the time to explain them all, helping me decide on a perfect lease that actually works for a higher mileage driver like myself. Great people and experience! I love my Mazda!

When we my wife and I got there, we were able to browse a little before Gretchen approached us. Was no high pressure sales. We test drove several cars, they even pulled the one off the showroom floor for us. Once we decided which one we wanted the process was very relaxed, little negotiating, which is nice. Once we completed the sales process, Gretchen sat with me and showed me all the features and benefits that I would need to know. Very very helpful, was impressed on how much she new about the product she sold! I will shop there again and would highly recommend Autex.

I traveled from Albany, NY to purchase my Mazda 3 S Grand Touring from Autex Mazda. My salesperson Donald was able to get me the exact car I was looking for, which entailed finding it and bringing it in from an out of state dealership. I spec'd out my car through truecar.com and got a great price with no hassle! ... something I couldn't do locally. I am very happy with my purchase and I'll definitely consider Autex for my next Mazda!Mike Ferracane

We just purchased a Mazda CX-5 grand touring vehicle. We worked with Gretchen on a busy Saturday. She did a great job juggling our purchase with other customers needs. We were able to drive off with our new car that same afternoon, which made me a very happy lady. It's good to be back with Autex, and Gretchen is great! Everyone else also deserves praise for their role. Great team work all the way!

I traded in my tired old truck for a much nicer F150 on thier used lot. Tony Sherman was really easy to work with and handled everything in a very professional way. In fact, everyone I met there was very easy to work with. One thing that really helped was Tony was always availabe through email or phone, to answer questions or followup with me. That was important since I was 75 miles away in Lebanon

I have taken several of my vehicles and my wife's car to this dealership for service and have always been treated with respect and honesty which is why I keep going back. I would recommend this dealership to anyone and I love the idea that they wash your car for you everytime you bring it in for service. Dave & Chris are easy & fun to deal with which is another reason I like to go there. You are given a "report card" on your vehicle and are not being pressured into doing any repair work. If it needs to be fixed they will tell you and if you don't fix it then it's your problem.

We had a great experience buying from Autex Mazda of Keene, NH. Our sales professional was Donald Class. He is very clear and works to get you all the information you need. I know that if I have any issues with my purchase that Donald and his team will get them resolved for me fast. His up front honesty was appreciated. His sales manager is visible and friendly. We had gone through Consumer Reports TrueCar pricing and the price was the same as advertised on their website. The pricing was straight forward and they were honest. This is the second new Mazda we have bought and the 3rd new vehicle. We have found a dealer that we like doing business with. We had a great buying experience and will return for future sales. Thank you Donald!

Gretchen was very professional and helpful in buying my new Mazda cx9. She was able to get me the car I wanted, with the payment I needed, at a great interest rate. We walked into the dealership with a vehicle in mind and drove it of the lot a few hours later. I will definitely be back next time I'm in the market for a vehicle.

At one time I would have balked at going out to look at new cars and working with dealerships because it is so overwhelming! However, at Autex Mazda in Keene, Gretchen Jackson made this a stress free experience for me over 7 years ago. I have traded in vehicles and upgraded over the years, and Gretchen was there to make sure all my needs were met with each car. Buying a new car was exciting instead of overwhelming.I would highly recommend Autex Mazda for your new or used car. It was an enjoyable experience!Thank you!

I have no choice but to give Autex Mazda of Keene, NH a great review because they had the car I wanted and gave me a good deal. In fact, Autex was the only Mazda dealer in all of New England that had a 2016 Mazda6 in the Sport trim/six speed manual shift, with the beautiful Blue Reflex color and sand interior. Gretchen does the car buying for the dealership and was my sales gal. She did a wonderful job and offered a good deal that made the drive from Portland to Keene very worthwhile. This is only the second new car purchase of my life, which has been filled with decent, though older, used cars. I did my home work and knew what I wanted. Autex Mazda and Gretchen came through for me and I can recommend them with enthusiasm and confidence.

I had a great car buying experience 5 years ago when I was looking at an used VW car of theirs (didn't buy that time) so I made sure to see what they had at their dealership this time around. And I was glad I did, they had what I was looking for, and Gretchen Jackson (Sales), Tim Machunsky (Manager) and Tim Hall (Loan, title and other paperwork) where a delight to work with. They listened, accommodated and went above and beyond all my needs when I bought my VW TDI Jetta Wagon with them. Coffee/tea/snacks available and also family friendly with kids play area. I will most certainly go back to Autex next time I want a car. Thank you Autex! - Peter

I bought a 2013 Mazda3 for a price way lower than competitors. Gretchen was fantastic and informative. The whole process was very easy. It is my first vehicle purchase, and I will remember how great Autex was for me for purchases in the future.

My daughter is/was a first time buyer and was a bit nervously excited. Everyone was pleasant and easy to talk with. They took a lot of time explaining everything to her. The whole experience was not a rush job. No pressure....just a nice experience.

I was interested in buying a Mazda for a long time. When my 2005 Chevy Cavalier was totaled in an accident last Fall it was time for a new ride. I was away out of the country for 3 months, so I put off buying a car until I returned. When I returned I first looked at Fords and Hyundais (different dealerships). Nice automobiles but they didn't do anything to move me to make a purchase. I needed a new car but I was not exactly sure what. So I went with my first instinct and drove to Autex Mazda in Keene, NH. I had trouble making a decision between a Mazda 6 and a Mazda 3 Hatch.Donald Class helped me with my decision. There were no high pressure points, just information, realistic options and expectations.I didn't need all the bells and whistles like heated seats, backup camera, navigation system......but the staff impressed upon me that I would appreciate these features. So I bought the Mazda 3 with a little more features and options than I originally planned on buying. I was glad I bought this car off the lot as it really was a great car. I know I made the right decision when I looked at the 20-day license plate and someone wrote in black ink, "Thank you and God Bless, with a smiley face".Amen!

Gretchen and Tim were a great help. Best experience I've had at a dealership so far.I've had my car a week and had the tpms light came on. I stopped by and they took it right in and put air in my tires. Great customer service so far.

Gretchen was an experienced salesperson and a pleasure to do business with. No matter what your co-workers sayCharlie you mop a mean floor.Thanks

I'd been searching and researching cars for some time and had decided to try Autex as a last resort. My salesman, Donald Class' laid back approach was very helpful. I really appreciated his respectful attitude and the fact that he seemed to listen to my concerns and try to accommodate. Though I had no intention to buy immediately, I felt great about the deal they were offering (which had not been my experience thus far) and the Mazda service and product appeared to be one of the best I've found.I'm still surprised to feel so good about what is generally a stressful experience! Donald made it a low-key, easy interaction!

I am so glad a friend suggested looking at Mazdas when it came time for us to get a new car. The dealership in Keene was incredibly pleasant. There was a calm atmosphere, despite it being the last Saturday in December (and it was clear they were fairly busy.)We were greeted immediately by Donald Class who carefully listened to what we needed. We were very frank that we were on a tight budget --never once did he try to convince us to get into a car we cannot afford. As said before, we were there on a friend's reccomendation so we didn't know much about Mazdas. Mr. Class believes deeply in the value Mazda offers. We learned a lot from him. These cars are dependable, affordable, and get great gas milage. All that, and leasing one from the Keene dealership could not have been smoother. All the employees were friendly,including the man who helped us with the credit report and financing. I'm very glad we are Autex Mazda customers. I have already suggested the dealership to some friends who are looking for a new car.

Professional, knowledegable and has a great sense of humor. She made this experience just like the other 3, very enjoyable!!! All around great dealership. They all work with you and for you and that is a great feeling.

I owned my previous car for 14 years and loved it but needed to get a new one - I had very specific requirements for a new car. The folks at Autex were able to meet those requirements and more. Over the summer, I had gone in to check out a few Mazdas but said I wasn't ready yet to purchase anything. They did not pester me with calls or emails. When I was ready, I came back to look at cars. I appreciated that. When I decided on the Mazda 3 i Grand Touring 5 door, they were able to get the exact color with the accessories that I wanted as well. There were none of the usual back and forth with the sales manager to purchase the car. It was all done with the utmost respect for the customer. I also appreciated that Charlie talked directly to me and made sure that I understood the car and did not direct the information to my husband. I would highly recommend Charlie and the staff at Autex to anyone who is looking for a car. Mazda should be thrilled to have Autex selling their product. Jeanne C

Buying a new car at Autex Mazda was an enjoyable experience. Staff were friendly and easy going. None of the pushy sales techniques I encountered elsewhere. They had a lot of choices for Mazda 3's to choose from, and gave me a great discount on accessories. Their financing shopped around and found me a better rate than I was expecting. I've had one minor issue with the infotainment center. I called near closing time, and their service department fit me in and took care of it quickly.

Autex Mazda made my buying experience VERY positive. I was looking for a Mazda CX 5 and made an appointment with Gretchen. She was not only extraordinarily knowledgeable, she was also extremely friendly and professional. I have gone into dealerships in the past and found that I knew far more about their product than the under informed sales people. Not in this case! From the test drive to purchase Gretchen handled all with capable grace. The sales manager Tim - was equally helpful. He worked hard to get me the best possible price in trade and I developed trust in him and in Gretchen in a short period of time. Autex is a small dealership and that is a good thing. The employees speak glowingly of the owner and they clearly feel well supported and happy in what they do. All this contributes to an excellent buying experience. I am pleased with the both price I paid and the quality of service. I would not hesitate to send a friend or family member to Autex Mazda. My CX 5 is a terrific vehicle and I am very pleased with Mazda as I researched them through everything from Car and Driver to Consumer Reports. That is a lot said "coming down" from an Audi. This is a quality car dealership that I would recommend highly to anyone.

Autex Mazda in Keene, NH, should post a sign outside their dealership, "Autex Mazda, The Way Buying a Car Should Be!" (Sorry..., but I stole the idea from the Maine state motto: "Maine, The Way Life Should Be.").Just yesterday, December 6th, 2014, I bought a brand new vehicle at Autex Mazda, a CX-5 Grand Touring, blue reflex mica. I was even the first person to ever test drive this particular vehicle - how cool is that!!?? My car buying experience here was just about perfect. They are even going to drive it down to Amherst, MA, and deliver it to me after they go to the Massachusetts DMV and my insurance company. Wow!I wish to thank Donald Class and Tim Machunsky for their excellent service and for making my car buying experience a very good one. In the past I have left dealerships feeling dirty - having dealt with unscrupulous sales managers who pounce as soon as they sense a weakness or an ambiguity. Not the case at Autex Mazda - I would highly recommend this dealership to anyone. Words of advice: Do your research. There really are only 3 things you need to know about buying a car: Research, Research, and Research. Use the Internet and the many resources you can easily access online before going to a dealership In my opinion, some of the best resources are, AAA, USAA (military), Consumer Reports, True Car, Edmunds.com, Cars.com, Kelly Blue Book, NADA, CarsDirect.com. If you use these resources and do your homework you will more than likely have a much better buying experience because, "Knowledge is Power!" You will not waste your time or their time - and they greatly appreciate that! You will know what you want, but MOST importantly, you will know what price you should pay for it. There is a reasonable price which is fair for you and fair for them. Remember: they need to make a reasonable profit and you need to feel you got a good deal and were not ripped off. Regardless of what I just said above, (and I believe you need to do all that stuff) its still important to size up their vibes when you arrive. If you want a Mazda - and who wouldn't? Autex Mazda is a wonderful place to buy one! Matthew Eichenlaub (stockroomcatatcomcast.net)

Donald Class and the staff at Autex Mazda were friendly and easy going. There was no pressure and Donald was more than happy to let me and my family take a few different vehicles out for a test drive. When I did buy a vehicle from Autex ('06 Nissan Xtera) I felt that Donald gave me a very fair deal. Since I had paid cash in full, the paper work was a breeze and I was able to drive my new ride home that day. Thank You Donald and Autex!!

So my wife and I stopped in and were thinking about trading in our 09 cx-7, it was kind of a blah day and didn't really think anything good was going to happen that day. From the moment we got out of the car we were greeted by Donald Class, a smiling face from the past. As we bought the cx-7 from this very place two years ago. Don was the man who originally helped us the first time but we ended up not buying that day and came back the next day ready to go but unfortunately he was off that day and he didn't get the credit. ??. Sorry again Don! Anyhow don was great! He is funney and full of excitement but also very knowledgeable and and professional. Donald won't steer you wrong as we found out. Also we would like to say thank you too all the staff at autex. They all worked hard to get us or brand new Mazda 3, and we love it!

Gretchen Jackson, the sales person each time, was very helpful and informative and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a new or used Mazda. Autex always seem to have the best models/options on hand in the lot.

I recently purchased a new Mazda and decided to go with AUTEX, based on a recommendation from a friend. My initial concerns about buying a car in New Hampshire, while I live in Connecticut, almost immediately disappeared after talking with the staff. Tim the sales manager helped put me in the perfect car and made sure to give great consideration to a few very specific needs I had when picking a car. Tim the finance manager took care of all the financing and got me a great rate, despite not so great credit. Most of the business was taken care of over the phone with very little needed from myself. I simply picked up the car and my plates came via UPS a week later. Needless to say, I love the car, loved the experience and wouldn't hesitate to go back to AUTEX Mazda again.

Donald Class, at Autex Mazda in Keene,NH, was very professional and a top notch sales rep. Donald listened to what I was looking for in a vehicle and found me exactly what I was looking for. He never once tried to persuade me into something I didn't want or like, as most sales reps in the paste have. I would recommend anyone looking for a car, new or used, to visit Donald at Autex. He is very knowledgeable and easy to work with, he will make you feel very relaxed and not stressed out, like most car buying experiences tend to be.Thank you Donald!

For only the second time in 38 years of car buying, I have had an entirely positive car-buying experience. In June, I ditched my derelict Passat for a nimble little 3S, with its Jag-like lines and Bose sound. Donald Class was a pleasure to deal with, as were the Sales and Finance Managers. The atmosphere at Autex Mazda is relaxed; no oily-pressure sales, just a friendly, accommodating, and knowledgeable staff. My first scheduled service was done promptly, on schedule, and on the house, even including a tire rotation. Autex is a 1 1/4-hr. drive for me; but, it is well worth it. Heck, in a 3S, it's a treat.

I recently traveled 180 miles, from New York, to purchase my new 2014 Mazda 2 from Autex. I negotiated the entire sale and financing options via phone and e-mail with Donald Class and Tim Machunsky. I can be very particular when making a large purchase and Donald was more than happy to answer any and all questions I had about the vehicle. Tim assisted in obtaining me the best possible financing and the best price for my new car. On the day I picked up my Mazda, Donald had the car and paperwork ready to go, it couldn't have been easier. Being an out of state buyer, I was a bit concerned about getting my car registered in NY without any hassle, but these guys handled everything, and within two weeks, my NY plates and registration arrived at my front door via UPS. Overall, I had a great experience and I have no doubts that I made the right choice by going with Autex. I would recommend them to anyone I know and wouldn't hesitate to do business with them again. Price and service, you'd be hard pressed to find anyone better!

I was able to buy a car from out of state with just a few phone calls. The salesman was efficient and nice. I recommend them to anyone.

This was my first experience going to a car dealership, and to be honest I was nervous. With my dad in toe we pulled into the Autex Mazda lot. We were then greeted by Donald Class. His friendly demeanor, and honest personality made me instantly feel at ease. This experience could not have been better! I drove the vehicle I thought I wanted, then realized that there was something better... something that felt more right. Everything worked out and at 5:30pm I drove away with a 2009 Jeep Patriot! Just in time for the first official 2014 Patriots game! I would recommend this dealership and Donald Class specifically if you are on the market for a new ride. You will not leave disappointed.

I recently purchased a 2014 Mazda 3 through Donald Class and had a very positive experience. What led me to Autex Mazda of Keene (NH) was "USAA's Car Buying Service." I came into the dealership from out of state looking to test drive a used Subaru Impreza and left purchasing a new Mazda! Donald listened to my consumer car needs and preferences and was align my requirements for safety and performance with the right car at the right price. Autex Mazda Keene and the entire staff were helpful and efficient!

The staff at Autex Mazda are smart, professional and nice people to buy a car from. First, they completely honored my "True Car Consumer Reports Pricing Certificate", with no worries from me that there might be additional fees. Second, and what really surprised and pleased me-- was that they held the car I wanted for 3 days before I could get there to pick it up! I drove from NY state to get my Mazda 2 Sport car.Don Class, my salesperson was extremely patient, helpful and reassuring over the phone and we went for a good test drive before I bought the car. Additionally, the two "Tims", Tim Machunsky (Sales Manager) and Tim (Finance Manager) are very nice gentleman who made finalizing the sale smooth and efficient! I hadn't bought a car in 10 years, and my last experience seemed like a nightmare! I highly recommend Autex Mazda for a great car and great car buying experience.

Once again Gretchen Jackson went above and beyond the call of duty to get me into the truck I Wanted at a payment that fit my budget. This is our 7th purchase from Gretchen at Autex. She understands and listens to the customers needs. She really takes the time to listen, her straight forward approach and honesty is what keeps me coming back. If you ever need a vehicle and want someone who will listen, you must contact Gretchen Jackson.

I was shopping around for the best deal I could get in four-state area around western mass - especially looking for what I had determined was my dream-car in a great color - when I was contacted by Charlie that they had one on the lot. After some initial confusion (use a phone rather than email with these folks for best results), I decided to take a look and drive the hour to get a sense of this car.Boy am I glad I did! The car was everything I was hoping it was and more! And unlike other dealers in western mass who had babysat with me while I test drove a car, at Autex I was able to take the thing out for a real spin by myself. I know it sounds silly - but when you've got someone looking over your shoulder it puts a huge crimp on your ability to really get a feel for the car you're driving - takes away your permission to try things out. So I got a real feel for the car, which sold me on it then and there!After returning to the dealership, I found Charlie and Tim to be laid back, easy to negotiate a fair deal with, and a total lack of the usual run-around bull-crap that most dealers employ (IMX). Nobody tried to drag the process out, or pinch me for yet a few more dollars or up-sell a bunch of useless "features" or such. Just honest negotiations.And the best part followed. Since I am in western mass, there had to be some coordination to get new plates and delivery of additional money down (my fault for not bringing my check book), and Tim & co. went out of their way to try to get all of the paperwork and RMV title & registration taken care of quickly - the very next day in fact!I've bought three new cars from dealerships so far, and this was by far my best experience. Recommended. :D

I recently purchased a Mazda cx-5 from Autex. The team, especially Donald Class, was very helpful in helping me purchase my dream car. He was never pushy and didn't pressure me like the stereotypical car salesman. He, and the entire Autex staff, were very professional, friendly and down to earth. They exemplify a caring, no-nonsense, neighborly dealership who's main purpose is to find the customer a great deal on a great car and make the dreaded car buying fiasco as easy and stress free as possible. Donald also went above and beyond by making himself available to his clients through text, which is extremely convenient given the digital age and the busy and competitive work environment of the young adult. He's always available for help, advice, troubleshooting and just to let him know how much your new car kicks a$$! Autex Mazda in Keene went above and beyond to help me get the car of my dreams at a fantastic price that is completely reasonable for my income. Because of their friendly approach, knowledge and determination to make the customer happy, I am now driving a pimp ride. Thanks Autex Mazda!- Happy customer,Annelies

I used both the AAA car build program and Truecar.com to identify 3 dealers who had a 2014 Mazda CX5. Autex came up in both searches and had the lowest "administration fees". Gretchen Jackson reached out to me via email and answered all my questions very promptly. I knew what I wanted and Gretchen Jackson was very straightforward when I arrived for a test drive. She didn't try to sell me more car than I wanted, which I appreciate and honored the quote that I had through Truecar and AAA. The financing that Mazda offered was better than my bank, and Tim Hall took me through the process very efficiently. I was able to leave with my new car about 3.5 hours later and was very pleased with the experience. The service seems very convenient (available on Saturdays, free wifi and shuttle service to outlets).

Let me start by saying the reason I choose Autex Mazda was because when I first stopped by and was in the "just looking" phase I was approached by Donald Class. He was professional and not pushy. Her educated me on the vehicles they had on the lot and listened to my concerns.I had been to other dealerships in Keene and each time was approached by sales people who clearly only had a sale in mind. They did not care about what was best for me. I checked in a few times with Donald to see what was available and finally the perfect Mazda CX 9 came in. I test drove, took some time to think about it, test drove it again, and then I was able to submit all the financial info on line and this was so convenient. Donald let me know exactly what documents and information I needed and the sales team kept me informed all the way. One thing I found is that several of the people on the team also drive Mazda's, being a first time Mazda owner this was important because I felt the staff really believe in the cars they sell. Donald is extremely professional and knowledgeable. He was also good about following up after my purchase to make sure I was satisfied with my car and experience. I though that was nice.I would highly recommend this dealership to all my family and friends. They truly define quality customer service!

Donald Class gives the title "salesman" a whole new meaning. His ability to make you feel relaxed and well informed goes way beyond what is required from salesmen. Don was not there to push a product but was there to meet a need. My wife and I was looking to purchase a new vehicle, but our credit wasn't the greatest. Don was honest and up front. He made us aware of what we would be facing and then he delivered on everything he spoke of. There were no hidden cost, no delays and no hassles. Don made our car buying experience an exciting event!! If you are looking to purchase a new automobile the Autex Mazda is the place to go and Donald Class is the man to see!!! A big Thank You to Tim Hall for all you do!!

The laid back approach and friendliness I experienced made it easy for me to feel comfortable when shopping for a new car. I didn't feel pressured and Steven was professional, listened to me intently, and knew just which cars to show me. Right from the start I could tell he was confident in his ability to find me the right car. With so many options out there it is easy to get overwhelmed. Most salesmen I have worked with seem like they have a rehearsed, cookie cutter attitude when TRYING to sell you a car. You should absolutely talk to Steven Shepard at Autex of Keene if you are looking to purchase a new or used vehicle. Anyone can memorize a few lines and take you through the motions to get you to go for a test drive. With Steven, I knew he was there to help me find the best possible fit for my next car. He understands and values the importance of the customer experience in a way I never could have anticipated. Thanks again to Steven and the sales team at Autex for all your dedication and patience during the car buying process!

Have purchased 2 cars from Donald over a 3yr period, and contemplating number 3. Not your typical, stereotypical car salesman. Very down to earth and easy to talk to. Doesn't try and pressure/bully you into a purchase. Very accommodating and patient. Would definitely refer people to him for sure! Great asset to the dealership.

We were very pleased with our buying experience at Mazda of Keene. Gretchen Jackson was friendly, knowledgeable, low-key and provided all the information we needed to make the best purchase for us. We were approved quickly and were able to get the payment amount we were looking for. The paperwork was done most efficiently by Tim Hall who was also very friendly and easy to talk with. Great customer service so far and we're looking forward to our dealings with Mazda of Keene in the future!

My experiences at Autex Mazda in Keene, NH have always been first rate and this afternoon was no different. Today I was able to lease a brand new Mazda CX 5 Touring at an incredible lease price thanks to Gretchen Jackson. We told her what our financial parameters were and what we were looking for in another lease for me and she came through with flying colors. My husband had just leased a brand new Mazda CX 5 Sport two months ago for him so we needed to be mindful of our budget. She was able to get me not only the color I wanted but a CX 5 in a Touring instead of a Sport and still keep within our budget. We have been doing business with Gretchen for many years and she has always gone the extra mile for us. I even pitted her against my last salesman at Tulley Mazda this time and she came out miles ahead. She is an outstanding salesperson whose main goal is customer satisfaction. When my son is ready to lease another Mazda he will be looking to Gretchen again as well.

Felt some anxiety at the thought of purchasing a used car from a dealership, but Autex was great. Donald asked us what we were looking for in a vehicle and showed us cars that fit our needs exactly. We ended up getting a great deal and there was no high pressure tactics. Definitely would recommended this dealer.

Autex overall as a dealership was a pleasure to do business with. Our Salesperson Donald Class' in-depth product knowledge was a breath of fresh air: he not only knew the "bells and whistles", but the performance, model, and option information as well. He demonstrated a great passion for the brand and cars in general which made our buying experience much more enjoyable. I didn't feel as though Don was pushing for a sale nor was he trying to "rush" us through the process, despite the showroom being very busy that day. He was attentive to customers who were waiting while never making us feel like we were being ignored. Don took us through the entire vehicle (2014 CX-5 GT) detailing every aspect along the way. At the end of the process, I feel like I had been treated like a human being- not just a sale. Autex made the buying process actually enjoyable. The sale was honest and fair- I don't feel cheated or misled at all. The team walked my husband and I through each step and made clear the details of the sale and financing. I would absolutely 110% do business with Autex again- specifically with Don. It was a pleasure.

We had a great experience at Autex; Gretchen and Tim were awesome and helped us out every step of the way - particularly with financing. We normally wouldn't have gone to Autex, since we weren't in the market for a Mazda, but I happened to see that they had the car we were looking for online. Once I contacted Gretchen, she promptly got back to me and we were able to get the ball rolling quickly - since my car was dying, this was HUGE - I needed a new one pretty much right away. Everybody was friendly and helpful, and all things considered, it might have been our easiest car-buying experience to date! Thank you, Autex!

I've actually bought four cars from Autex Mazda over the past ten years or so they've all been positive experiences. In particular, Gretchen Jackson has been my sales person for the last three and she is great to work with. I've had a pretty tight budget for my last two purchases and Gretchen worked hard in both cases to get me the car I wanted for a price I could afford. I have no qualms recommending Autex in general and Gretchen in particular to anyone looking to buy a Mazda.

I visited the dealership in early December 2013 to purchase a car. Donald was incredibly helpful in all aspects of the purchase, and the price was very competitive for the vehicle I bought. It needed some work in order to be inspected, which they covered under the price we agreed upon; when it wasn't done by the time I needed to have my vehicle (due to parts not arriving, no fault on their part!) they were more than happy to provide me with a loaner vehicle until the work was done and I was able to pick it up (which was almost a week later!). I highly recommend Autex and will most definitely be looking at them for any future vehicle!

We were very impressed with the service and friendliness of the staff. We never felt pressured, yet they were very helpful by offering to let us take the car for a longer time than just a casual test drive. Buying a car can be a very stressful time, but we were saved the stress by dealing with Autex. Our salesman, Donald Class, was very attentive, and we were able to easily reach him on the phone to answer several calls we made to him with questions. I would definitely recommend Autex to a friend. We drove over 50 miles to buy this car and it was worth the effort!

In March 2013 I purchased a Mazda 3 Grand Touring, loaded! My salesman was Donald Class at Autex Mazda in Keene, N.H. It was the BEST and EASIEST sale on a vehicle that I wanted. He did not push a sale for something he wanted, it was all about me and my happiness! I will never buy another vehicle anywhere else! I love my car and will go to Donald Class for any future sales. I am 100% satisfied with my experience and shared it with others from out of state, whom plan to purchase as well. Thank you Donald Class for a wonderful "car buying experience!"

In February 2013 I was in need of a reasonably priced car. I contacted Donald Class and within a couple days he had a car in the price range that I could afford. Sold as is, but I had a problem with it and called Donald. He took care of the problem ASAP at no charge.When looking for a new or used vehicle, I would and do highly recommend Donald Class

Gretchen was willing to go other dealers to locate just the car I was looking for, everything worked out fine even though it was a 2 hour drive to get there from where I live.I was given a loaner since I was trading in and they had to wait for my car to arrive two days after I stopped ( on a Saturday ).My new Mazda 3 is amazingly fun to drive and frugal at the same time.

I was NOT SATISFIED with they way I was handled! I had to make several calls to them to ask how my application was going. There was NO talking to them about the price of the car & was told "oh sorry we couldn't help" they do not go the extra mile to help me look into another car, they just didn't seem to care about selling a car. Also they did my credit application to the banks for almost 4,000 more than what the car price was

Autex Mazda is simply a great place to buy a car. I've purchased both new and used there through the years and always had a good experience. I know I can trust them to be honest and fair and work with me to get the best car at the best price to meet my needs. I have never been disappointed. They are never pushy -- simply engaged, interested, and working to find out what you need and how to make it happen. Our most recent experience was upgrading from a 2013 Mazda 2 to a 2013 Mazda 3. We got a great deal and it was easy and about a stress-free as buying a car could ever be! I have also had nothing but good experiences with the service department. They are top notch, friendly, fast, and accommodating. I always go to Autex first whenever I need a car. I can highly recommend Autex Mazda to anyone looking for new, used or service.

My experience at Autex Mazda was great. We were greeted in the parking lot by a very friendly salesman named Steve, he listened to what we were looking for and what we expected for a trade-in. He went to work on getting us what we wanted. Tim took care of the paper work and every thing was taken care of in a timely manner. The experience we had there was like none before. Everything went so smoothly. The atmosphere was relaxed and very friendly. This was very different from the experiences we were having at different dealerships. We would highly recommend Autex Mazda for your car buying needs. They really go above and beyond the rest. Thank you Autex Mazda for getting us into the car we wanted. We love it! zoom zoom Liz & Joe Kent

working with Donald and Tim was not only a great experience it was also fun, they are laid back, (not pushy) friendly and very understanding, this was my daughter's first car loan and she didn't have any credit, they were willing to help research a few different angles to make something work for her. Tim was great at finding a vehicle that would work for my daughter that is also safe and reliable. We visited a few other dealerships in the are and we were dismissed due to not having any credit and no one was willing to help with other options. I will definitely recommend Autex Mazda to everyone, when my other daughter is ready to purchase a vehicle my first and only stop will be Autex to see Donald Class.

My wife and I were in the market for a used Mazda Miata for having fun in the summer. Since we try to shop locally,we ventured to Autex Mazda of Keene. Upon arrival we meet Donald Class, who answered our questions, with no pressure, informed him that we were looking for a used Miata in good condition, and test drove a newer model to see if we really liked it's performance. Within a week, Donald found a Miata, which meet our expectations, and budget. He was great to deal with, and the service department throughly inspected the vehicle, detailed it nicely, and we were on our way to summer fun!

From the moment I stepped in the door Gretchen was friendly and helpful. She showed me around the lot, and printed out details on every car I was interested in. I had been shopping around every dealership in town, had visited at least 3 that day alone, and that was the first time anyone printed me a data sheet on a car. This is a fantastic idea, I don't know why other dealerships don't do it, but I love it.She answered every question I asked and never pressured me. Very important point. She listened to what I wanted, and NEVER showed me a vehicle that didn't fall inside my parameters. Excellent customer service. I visited a few times, and got the same quality attention each time. After the purchase, she even introduced me to one of the service technicians, so I would know who to come to should any problems arise. Though Gretchen said I could always call her in the future as well. In short, she made sure I knew who would be taking care of me.I would also like to mention Tim, the gentleman who processed all the documents. He had me out of there in less than 15 minutes, without rushing, and he made sure I understood every piece of paper I signed and received. Which is saying something, as I am terrible with paperwork.Overall, a great team of people.Thank you,Henry Clifford

We stopped in late (after 5pm Friday) We knew Gretchen was trying to leave, so we just told her we just looking. Instead she went and got the car I wanted and let us take it for a test drive. LOVED IT Mazda3 standard.I told her that I would be back in the morning after work. I told Gretchen that I would rather get teeth pulled than deal with car dealers.She said that she was different. She proved that she was different.I was out of there with my old truck (I miss her) traded in, and driving the car that we test drove the night before in less than 1 1/2 hours.Gretchen gets it! She did not pressure me in to a car that I did not need or could afford.I highly suggest seeing her first!

I just leased a 2013 Mazda Mazda3 iTouring from Autex Mazda. This is the 5th (FIFTH) car that my family (my mom and I) have purchased from Charlie Brown at Autex Mazda and we will both continue to go to Autex and to see Charlie for our automobile needs. The reason we continue to go back to Autex and to see Charlie is because he, and the rest of the team, always take the time to understand our needs and always work their hardest to get us into the vehicles we desire at the price we want. I am going to be a senior in college and due to unforeseen circumstances, I found myself in a bit of a financial rut and the biggest of the burden was the payment I had on my 2011 Mazda3 that I also purchased from Charlie. I went to Autex and I told Charlie I needed a lower payment on my car. I was thinking of just refinancing, but when Charlie told me the price on my new car, it was an offer I couldn't pass up. Overall, Charlie and the Autex team saved me over $80 and got me into a newer, better car than what I had before. They worked around my schedule and respected every minute of my time. As silly as it sounds, I was a bit emotional during this time, and they even supported me through that. Charlie and the Autex team are AWESOME and due to their genuine care for their customers, I will never go to another dealership again.

Purchasing a car is a difficult and stressful adventure. The first person to greet you on a car lot is usually the sales consultant. Often these people are not as interested in your transportation needs as they are in moving a particular product. Donald Class, sales consultant, met us as we came to Autex. It was our second experience at Autex of keene. We were not disappointed.Donald listened to our financial parameters and the type of car that we were interested in . My family and I were treated with respect and were given honest service that most car dealerships are not known for. At no point in the process were we made to feel pressure to make a purchase or to compromise re: what we felt comfortable in paying.Donald class was courteous, honest and diligent in assisting us in our purchase.The entire team at Autez of keene including Tim Machunsky, sales manager, and Chris Barnwall, finance officer, coordinate their efforts in efficiently and courteously. I don't think that I will ever buy a car anywhere else.

My wife and I bought a new Mazda CX-5. Our experience working with Gretchen Jackson was so positive and enjoyable, we're still a little in shock. It was the best car-buying experience we've ever had. No previous experience even comes close. Gretchen couldn't have been nicer or more knowledgeable. She flat-out knows everything about Mazda cars. She simply couldn't be stumped. Best of all, she didn't just wait for us to ask questions-- she pointed out things we were not knowledgeable enough to ask about. When we did ask questions, she explained everything promptly and clearly. And she was never in a hurry. We never felt rushed. She gave the impression she had all the time in the world for us. She has a great sense of humor, and a knack for keeping things very light and upbeat. I would never have believed that I could feel relaxed while buying a car, but that's exactly how we felt with Gretchen-- and it happened almost immediately. I can't recommend her highly enough. FWIW: Everyone we met at Autex Mazda of Keene was friendly and helpful. Our entire experience there was positive, and I can't imagine going anywhere else in future.

I had a great experience at Autex Mazda, they helped me get out of my Ford and into a much nicer CX 5 and they were more than happy to help me look at all my options. Donald Class was more than happy to allow me to test drive as many different cars with as many options as I wanted to and Donald and the sales manager were able to get me into the car I wanted at the payment a month I was happy with! The service I receieved here went above and beyond Donald made sure I understood all the features of the car before I left and how all the different buttons and gadgets worked and he even gave me a tour around the dealership to make sure I understood where parts and service were for future use. All of this made the process of getting a new car very painless and I appreciated the effort and service!

So I just finished the purchase and delivery of my new Mazda3. Once I was pretty sure on the trim level I decided to ask for a quote on-line. Autex Mazda (in Keene, NH) was the closest dealership with the model I wanted and within a day I had a quote that looked pretty good. The message came from Gretchen Jackson. She followed-up with a call and I went in that day. My experience with Gretchen was great in every way. She made the complexities of the cost easy to understand and earned my trust. Paperwork inc credit check went quickly and all my questions were answered. I never felt that nasty anxiety I usually feel when buying a car. I never felt hustled or stupid.Everyone has different priorities, but for me the experience and a relatively low cost were most important and I am very satisfied on both points.

After a couple of months researching vehicles we settled on a dealership to initiate the used car search process. Unfortunately we did not feel as though our we were being taken seriously. So we expanded our range for another dealership search which is how we found Autex Mazda. Using DealerRator.com and other review sites we decided to email Gretchen Jackson hopeful that maybe something would work out for us. Emailing Gretchen was the best decision we had made. Lets just say that after our first email contact with Gretchen we were leaving Autex four days later in a new 2012 CX-9.Gretchen made the process extremely easy and she was able to make us comfortable enough to work the sale over the phone & Internet. It was a surprise for us how easy the buying experience was. We couldn't be happier.We strongly recommend contacting Gretchen if interested in used or new Mazda's.

My wife and I purchased our 5th car from Autex and our 4th from Gretchen. She let us take the car for an overnight test drive and that helped us make our decision. We returned the car Saturday morning and told her we'd decided to purchase it. They had the car ready for us later that day. She took the time to go over the vehicle and said to call her with any questions. She also followed up 2 days later to be sure we were happy. Great experience!

I worked with Gretchen Jackson who is very knowledgeable, friendly and professional. She really knows the vehicles and takes the time to listen to what you want and how much you can spend. She really takes the time to work with you and give you all your options so you are comfortable with the purchase. I really love my truck and it was a very positive experience at Autex. Thanks Gretchen!Hank MillerSwanzey NH

This dealership was absolutely fantastic, and my experience was wonderful! I have never dealt with such polite people before when purchasing an automobile. They were knowledgable and helpful during the selection process, and even steered me towards to most cost appropriate make and model of car. They provided free coffee and beverages, along with hospitality during the purchasing process. I would absolutely recommend this dealership to ANY customer looking to get into an automobile. Gretchen and Tim were absolutely fantastic, friendly, and helpful!

I find this dealership to be worth mentioning because of the sales department and I look forward to meeting more of the staff. Upon my initial visit I mentioned to Gretchen what I was sort of looking for in a car, the price range, and most of all -- what type of a person I am and what type of a sales agent I was and was not willing to work with in searching for a vehicle. This lady listens well for I can a volcano to work with when people don't listen. She was excellent: friendly, educated, not pushy yet attentive. She took time to introduce me to other sales agents whom I would potentially be interacting with as well. Once when browsing, a second sales agent took the time to walk and talk with me even though I told him I was already linked to Gretchen. Pretty dang good I think. Then, this team put together a package that would fit me financially and give me more than I was looking for at the same price. Again not bad at all. I went away debating, running numbers, and this team, because of Gretchen's listening sat back patiently and waited. How many sales departments do this? A casual call, a final group of questions, and made the decision and drove away happily in my new Mazda 3 with a team of wonderful people in the review mirror welcoming me back anytime for support.

This was my second time leasing a new Mazda and my first time purchasing from Autex Mazda. It was by far the best dealer experience I've had yet. Don was the person who sold me my MX5 and he did a fantastic job! He was honest and I never felt rushed or pressured. The whole experience was one that I would very highly recommend. I get the sense that Autex truly prides itself on having a good local reputation and with Don on the team, I think it will be easy for them to maintain that reputation of excellence. Thanks so much guys!

I recently purchased a 2010 certified pre-owned Mazda CX-9 SUV from Autex in Keene, NH. I had purchased a vehicle from Autex in the past and decided to go back after being unhappy with another dealership. I had purchased a high-end SUV from another local dealership and after 6 months realized that I really could use a vehicle with third row seating. When I purchased that SUV I was in a great position and traded in a vehicle I owed nothing on and had several thousand dollars in equity. However when I went back to the other dealership to trade it in they offered me $4500 less for the SUV than what they had charged me 6 months prior. I tried to work with them and found a vehicle I liked and while awaiting an answer on financing they sold that vehicle out from under me. Feeling very discouraged I decided to shop around. I went to Autex and was helped by Gretchen Jackson. I was honest and told her of my situation. She immediately talked with her sales and finance managers to try to earn my business. She was able to get me into a vehicle that was 3 years newer with 20K less miles than the one I was looking at and because I bought a certified pre-owned vehicle my Mazda CX9 came with a 12 month 12K mile bumper to bumper warranty as well as a 100K mile/7yr powertrain warranty which as a mom of 3 who does a lot of driving is worth its weight in gold having that piece of mind in a warranty. Gretchen sold me the vehicle at trade-in price instead of the retail price so I now have a newer vehicle,my equity back and did I forget to mention that they offered me $1500 more for my trade than what other dealers offered just to earn my business. The only thing she asked in return was that I send friends and family looking to buy a vehicle to Autex. The best part was also that their finance manager was able to get me an interest rate that was 6% lower than my other vehicle! So if you are looking for an honest dealership with a straight-forward sales approach whose top priority is customer satisfaction- go see Gretchen Jackson and the team at Autex. The service team is awesome also- took the SUV by to get tire pressure checked and they washed my car for me free of charge without me even asking! Nice people,fair prices and great service abide at Autex. - Patti Dion Marshall of Keene

We were quickly greeted on the lot by Gretchen. She was friendly and welcoming. We had researched on line what car we wanted and with what options that we really had to have. Gretchen listened to what we wanted and was able to help us in minutes. She made the whole car buying process very pleasant. I would recommend her to anyone.

Usually, when you walk into a car dealership with a game plan and some specific goals, you consider yourself lucky if you break even. Rare is the case when most of your ideals are met, but that was my experience at Autex. Gretchen Jackson and Mike Machunsky worked hard for my business, and to help put me in the car of my dreams, for the right price, and a finance rate worthy of my good credit. This was an after hours deal, so when I went back to sign all the paperwork, the finance manager, Tim Hall, informed me that they'd found an even better APR for me than the one we'd agreed upon! Bottom line: if you want your zoom-zoom, get it here.

Thanks to all at Autex and especially Gretchen Jackson. I love my new Mazda! We started by looking at a 2012 to take advantage of the year end incentives but when I mentioned that I didn't really need the satelite radio and that I would be happy with something basic, Gretchen explained that in 2013 they brought back a more basic model and maybe that would work for me. It was perfect. Almost exactly like my 2004 Mazda 3 but brand new and less expensive than the 2012. Autex gave me a more than fair trade in value for my 2004 with 209,000 miles. Gretchen focused on getting me what I would be happy with, rather than on what would sell for more money. I don't shop around, I just go to Autex. This is my 3th Mazda from Autex and the 4th Mazda I've owned. I can honestly say that this car buying experience was a pleasure. Thank you!

""Must See Gretchen Jackson""Once again Gretchen And Tim Hall went out of their way to make this the most enjoyable vehicle purchase. As always it is a pleasure to deal with Gretchen her straight forward no nonsense approach makes it easy to buy a car from her. I know we will be back to buy vehicle # 6 from her is another 2 short years.

This is the second Mazda I have purchased from Gretchen. Both times I have asked for a very specific vehicle and she has found it for me. Her salesmanship and overall attitude is terrific. I have only brought my Mazda to Autex for service and have only had one problem in the last 6 years. I intend to use them for my new vehicle as well. Having worked with other dealerships I can say that Autex stand above all the others. They make finding, purchasing and servicing a pleasant and I can actually say fun experience.

Gretchen was the best car salesperson I have very had the pleasure to due business with. I called the night before hoping they still had the hard to find CX5 grand touring w/the tech pack and car starter. My luck I found Gretchen and the car, she knows everything about the cars and their options. She spent time helping me set up all of the great features found in my brand new Mazda including calling Sirius and setting up my bluetooth. I arrived at 8:20am and drove off with my beautiful new car 2 1/2 hours later. It is a very friendly dealership and they make you feel at home while you are there. I drove 60 miles to find this car and I found a place I would recommend to anyone looking to buy a Mazda.

This was our third vehicle purchased from Autex. Charlie and Tim made it as easy and convenient as possible, handling every aspect of the experience efficiently. Vehicle preparation was well done and Charlie explained key features well, noting where items were listed in the Owners Manual should we need to refresh our knowledge of the "what and hows" of the many components. They all understand and practice good "customer service"! We would, and do, recommend Autex highly for their service and Mazda automobiles. I'm sure we'll be back!

Gretchen called us to offer us a great deal on our vehicle and put us into a new 2012 Mazda CX 9 Grand Touring. We had many questions. She spent a lot of time with us on the phone and answered them all. At the dealership she spent 5 hours with us to get us set up in our new car, including programming our phones with Blue Tooth in the car, calling Sirus/XM to set us up with our free 4 month subscription, as well as explaining all the features of the car that were new to us. She was friendly and positive the entire time. We have never had a car salesperson give us such an enjoyable experience.Tim was quick and efficient getting us through all the paperwork. That was appreciated. He was friendly and patient and answered our questions.

Salesman here were straightforward and cars were well maintained. At other dealerships in my search, I'd be distracted during the test drive by the grinding noise from dirty and corroded brake rotors. When I tried the car here, this was not an issue, the car had been kept from sitting still and rusting, which made the test drive much more useful.

I came to Autex to look for something to accommodate my growing family.. When I walked in I was not sure of the vehicle I was going to be looking for. I had been looking on Cars.com at some SUV's and wanted something that was good on gas and had plenty of room for us if we all took a trip. When I got to Autex Gretchen Jackson greated me and I explained my situation and with out hesitation she said I have the perfect vehicle for you.... She had pulled up a 2010 Mazda 5. When I drove this vehicle I fell in love with it immediately after returning from my test drive she explained that this vehicle was a certified pre-owned vehicle and came with a full warranty and roadside assistance.All of which was at no cost to me!!! I am sooooo very happy with this vehicle and the Autex Staff made me feel very comfortable in my decision. A+++++ in my book!!

Previous sales manager not helpful at all....received a call from new sales manager and he did everything he said he would do. I was called by Gretchen when my car came into the dealership and she is about the most pleasant and knowledgeable car sales rep I have ever had the pleasure of working with. She went over everything about my new car and made me comfortable enough to feel I can call her with any questions or issues I might have. Tim Hall worked very efficiently to get my paperwork done and me on my way.Thanks again Gretchen.

This dealership is the best car dealership I have ever dealt with. They were not at all pushy! Eric Cota and Tim Hall are an amazing sales team! Most importantly, I felt that they were honest with me. They were very good about my trade in! I drove almost 100 miles one way and I would go twice the distance to deal with these two again. Furthermore, as a woman, I didn't feel at all that they were taking advantage of me OR making me feel silly (because I really don't know anything about cars). I give them a 5+ rating in every category!

Donald Class was great to work with. I was unsure of which vehicle I wanted and he took the time to inform me both in the showroom and on the road.He answered all my questions and showed me the many new features in a 2013 Mazda cx5. I wanted a Grand Touring model and he contacted me as soon as it arrived on the lot.Great knowledge about the product and friendly service. I would recommend him highly. From personal experience, the Service Department is excellent as well.

This is the first time I left a dealership with a smile on my face and continue to smile. Will buy from Autex and Gretchen again! They represented accurately with NO pressure and a great deal of friendliness. I did not feel like they were doing a sales-job on me. Now I understand the Zoom Zoom Zoom.Thank you Gretchen

The Autex Staff is alway friendly and happy to see you when you walk through the door. I love Love Love this place!!

Gretchen kept all appointments, did everything she said she would do, provided great information, was never insulting, played none of the usual little obnoxious games in negotiating the sale like most sales people, ended up providing a great competitive price. In general, I cannot say enough good things about my experience.Tim worked tirelessly, effectively, and respectfully to get through the drudgery of the paperwork. Again a very positive experience. And I am very satisfied with the quality of my purchase, last week, so far. Time will tell, but I like the car very much.Thank you, Autex, for providing such a pleasant experience.

Gretchen recommended the Mazda CX-5 before it had even hit their lot. She listened to what I wanted and made the perfect call. She called as soon as they had one on the lot and we went to look. Loved it and she was able to put the deal together!!!!! Another stress free, wonderful experience with Ms. Jackson accomplished!!!!

We drove 50 miles to compare the Suzuki SX4 sedan and the Mazda 3 to a VW Jetta SE that we already had a deposit on, and drove a beautiful, fully loaded 6 speed thanks to Gretchen's suggesting over the phone the other night. (The standard transmissions are hard to come by, as we really wanted a Suzuki SX4 six speed sedan which no dealer can locate.) She was very thorough in her searching, as far away as Albany, NY where only one white Suzuki SX4 sedan was available (our only non desirable color for exterior). The interiors are all black in many models, and I can't understand why. While the Mazda was impressive, we feel the Jetta better fit our needs. I will definitely visit her again when the new Suzuki becomes available (as we adore our current one). I applaud her efforts and congeniality.

I recently had a situation where I had contact with the Service, Parts and Sales Departments. Without going into specifics, Chris and Tony, in Service & Parts, worked together and came up with a number of options. They worked together to fix my problem and I couldnt be happier. Service managed to fit me into their schedule so I wouldnt have to make a return trip. I felt their knowledge allowed me to make the right decision at lower cost than I had anticipated. While at the dealership I worked with Gretchen regarding a used and new vehicle. Gretchen was upfront, honest and extremely helpful. I would not hesitate to recommend Autex Mazda and their staff to anyone.

The sales staff was there 100% and always friendly. They are always available to answer questions, even when not on the clock. I would definitely go back to Autex to purchase another vehicle.

The car was priced right and it actually was like the car in the description. I drove all over the place looking for a new car, almost every time i got to a dealership the car was either sold or was nothing like the car in the pictures. I'd recomend both Autex and Donald to anyone looking for a used car

In search of a good used truck after going to several dealerships. I ventured into autex mazda of Keene,NH and was greeted by Donald Class. Donald was very helpful in finding what I was looking for, but not overbearing. After looking at several trucks in my price range I picked the one I wanted. So Donald started the sales process which Donald walked me through very professionally and not hesitating to answer my many questions. With all the paperwork complete I was then introduced to Tim Hall for financing, and again was treated with respect and professionalisum. Also was pleased to let you know that throughout this journey of shopping and leg work my girlfriend who was not buying a car at the time, was treated very well also. From start to finish the whole experience was easy and fun. Now I'm enjoying my very nice 03, toyata tacoma pickup truck. thank you guys,We will highly reccomend autex mazda of Keene, NH to our friends and family.Bill Holway & Tina Willette

I just purchased a Mazda 3IGT-4 door and I love it. I needed a more fuel efficient vehicle and I had read up on the new Skyactiv engine and I am glad I did. The first time I filled it up, I was pleased to see 38.5mgp average. The second time I filled up I had 40mgp, and I had not even gone 500 miles. The people I worked with were very professional and courteous and made me feel like I could ask them anything. I was so pleased with my car that my boyfriend decided to buy one also and he got the Mazda 3I-5 door and loves his also. I would definately purchase another vehicle from Autex in the future.

I just bought an 05 Jeep Wrangler in January from Autex Mazda. The sales assoc. Donald Class was the most professional, courteous, and personal sales person I have ever dealt with in buying cars over the last 30 years. The most pleasant, and not over bearing or overly pressured car buying experience I have had, and that's the reason I bought a car that I had no real intention of buying until I talked with Donald. He could not have been more helpful with any questions or concerns I had for the Jeep. When I did the final sale with Tim Hall, he explained everything to me and made it as easy and quick as possible to get it done on a Saturday afternoon no less. I felt very confident I made the right decision buying a vehicle from them. Also the windshield developed a crack in it after 3 days so I went back to the dealership and asked Donald what could be done about that. The owner of the dealership, Tom Bogar, happened to be near by and immediately said we will take care of that for you right away, and they did. Within 2 days I had a new windshield in my Jeep and I didn't have to do a thing. It felt like I had a brand new vehicle. That really made me feel very good about buying a used vehicle from Autex Mazda in Keene.

I went online to Autexcars.com looking for a smaller more fuel efficient vehicle to replace my old beat up pick up. I saw a few thing that looked nice. When I called I got Gretchen Jackson on the phone who was very helpful in answering all my questions. When I arrived Gretchen was busy so one of the other salesmen brought the car up for me to look at. I drove a used car and Gretchen told me about the new Mazda 3 that I could get at 0% financing for 60 months. We took the Mazda 3 for a test drive and I absolutly loved it. Gretchen As well as the entire staff at Autex were great to work with and I must say I love my New Mazda 3!!!

In Feb brought my 05 Mazda6 in chk eng light was on. After a couple hrs I got a call saying car was done- I needed a (PCM) I was told I might be able to get a used one for $200- new $600. Months went by I had not heard back, I called Larry- he didn't rememeber that pricing conversation. Also had been pulled over at least 5 times- lights to dim or not working- local police, state police and out of state police. I was told nothing was wrong with my lights. I asked if PCM was covered under warranty- NO Absolutely not. Price of almost $800.was given parts & labor- coworker overheard me and said O2 sensors were part of emissions and covered under Federal regulations 8yrs/80k- I asked Larry again, again adamant it was NOT covered. I called another dealer for 2nd opinion. NorthEnd Mazda told me YES it was covered. My car had Cali. Emissions listed as an accessory for some reason?? Anyway PCM was replaced 6/27/10 $0.00 Covered under warranty 100%. oh and by the way- chk eng light still didn't go out- Turns out "someone" checked a fuse, placed fuse back in wrong slot. Once fuse was corrected chk eng light went out.As for the lights too dim or not working NorthEnd replaced 5 /FIVE BULBS/ !! Told nothing was wrong with lights?? Autex service Unreal?at?at??

By far, the most RUDE people I have ever dealt with in my life, this is why I rated it so poorly. I spoke to both the manager and some other sales associate and neither would give me any information about the car, even when I was coming from 2 hours away! I asked the sales associate on the phone if she could tell me about the car, and if she couldn't, put me through to someone who could and she replied, "I cannot tell you anything about the car and if you speak to anyone else in the shop about the car, you are no longer my customer and will no longer talk to you about the car." These people are solely commission based and do not care about helping you, they only care about helping themselves. And get this, I asked if they do simple safety checks so I feel good about driving away in it and she said, "No, you can go pay $25 and get it done at Mitas next door..." I thought all places get mixed reviews so I gave this place a shot. DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME.

The Business Manager there treated me with the worst customer service I've ever had. They were not willing to negotiate the price or add a warranty (it was an $8000 car!), and made me feel like my business was unappreciated. They wouldn't even guarantee an inspection or twenty day plates!! (It had a sticker from their service department from two weeks prior!) I was told any major issues that their service area missed would not be fixed at their expense. It was my responsibility.I've heard they sell 'lemons' at that dealership. No surprise here.Luckily, I found Team Nissan in Manchester, well worth the trip. Ask for Rob Miller, I'll go back to him every time I buy a new car. I've talked with friends, neighbors and family, each one with their own bad experience from them. Take my advice, DONT buy a car from Autex Mazda in Keene.
