Florida Dealer info
I've noticed from time to time, many people come here looking for answers as to which dealer we recommend for sales or service so I've to compile a quick rough list of good/bad dealers in the area...
Please add your good and bad experiences with various dealers here.

Here's my list...
Braman Honda Miami: Great sales experience, no "market-adjusted" prices or bs. They kept me informed throughout the process, although I would had loved to get the car sooner... One of their own, SC-SUZUKA (Chris) is an active member of this forum and the club. See him or Justino Arnell for MSRP Pricing. Excellent service department and very experienced techs. They called me in for the Spark Plug recall!!! When I had paint peeling issues, they immediately repainted both bumpers without hesitation and performed a top notch job. I highly recommend them.
Maroone Honda Miami: I got my 01 Spa Yellow from there. Great sales experience, my sales guy was Justino Arnell, whose with Braman Honda Miami now. Decent service department.
Brickell Honda: Their sales manager swore to me that they had a new color called "Sunfire Yellow". 'Nuff said.
Rick Case Honda: Know nothing sales people who resort to pressure tactics, which I absolutely hate. Used to have a good service department but their S2000 expert (Doug ?) left. I don't know about now.
Ed Morse Honda: Bunch of monkeys chasing their tails around in circles.
North Miami Beach Honda: Although I didn't buy the car from them, they were extremely helpful in the sales process, giving me straightup pricing.

Thank you Mav for the recommendation... I'm Chris Colston {SC-SUZUKA} i work at braman honda in miami... I have 2 yellow, and 1 white S2002 year 2002....I have a couple of 2003 coming in already, if interested in one call me @ 305-951-8381
Braman Honda Lake Worth: Decent Service Dept, I had to keep on top of them. I'm sure they have blacklisted me by now.
Ed Morse Honda WPB: NEVER EVER.....I had to argue with the service manager that my top was folding wrong and he kept telling me it was a mechanical failure when he saw what the problem was, when the bar in question wasn't machanized. He wasted an hour of my time for no reason.
Rick Case Honda: Was great when the old service manager was there, and when Mario was there too, but now they are just "too busy".
I think that overall, I will end up taking mine to Braman Honda Miami from now on. Hopefully I won't have to have any more tranny overhauls, even though 3rd gear still grinds......ARRGGHH!!

I still recommend Rick Case service. Doug (old service manager) is gone, but the shop foreman Mark is very knowledgeable and reasonable. I haven't interacted much with the new service manager. The old S2k mechanic (Max) moved on to exotics (Maserati and Lambourghini) and now Neil is on board as the S2k specialist. He comes with a lot of NSX experience and did the transmission and clutch TSB on my car with excellent results. He likes Corona beer
