Used 2016 Buick Encore for Sale in Tampa, FL

This is my second vehicle purchased from Vroom in the last 12 months, and I can't imagine ever buying a used car from a brick-and-mortar dealership again. Vroom offers a terrific selection of late model used vehicles. The pictures really make it easy to know what the car looks like. I purchased a 2015 BMW 5-series, and the Vroom price compared to a similar make/model/mileage vehicle from CarMax was $3,000+ cheaper. I selected my vehicle over a few weeks of looking at photos. I filled out a credit application online, and they immediately called me to finalize the app, discuss rates and payments, and to get my $500 deposit. I received a loan package via FedEx 2 days later, signed all the paperwork, and sent it back in the pre-paid FedEx envelope they provided. About 3 days later, I started getting emails to schedule delivery. The process only took 9 business days from the moment I made the deposit to the moment I got my vehicle. The vehicle was clean, just as described, and runs great. Now I just need to get a state inspection and add this to my insurance policy, and the tags will be mailed to me in a few weeks. Thankfully, Vroom gives me a 60-day temp tag so there is ample time to receive the plates. This is the future of car-buying, and the 7-day money back guarantee makes it the perfect way to purchase a used vehicle.

This car has more leg room than I have had before. The ride is very smooth and has plenty of pick up and go. Very classy vehicle, good mpg as well. Turbo is a plus.

I highly recommend Matt Duke as your salesperson. Matt is the best of any auto sales person I have worked with in all my years of buying cars which is well over 45 years. Truly, I felt like I was buying a car and NOT being high pressured like many car salespeople are. The "experience was exceptional" with Matt's consultation. He gets A++, 6 stars out of 5, 12 out of 10 ... however you want to rate... for providing trust, confidence, ability to answer all my questions (I ask many questions) and assisting us in making the right decision on the right car, the Genesis G90, for my needs. Matt displayed "excellent self control with patience" and went above and beyond and delivered the Genesis G90 to my home, on Sunday, his day off, and spent well over 3 and 1/2 hours going over all the features on the car. Finance person, Robinson Aswood, was exceptional and patient in assisting me to understand our lease agreement, and answering my many questions to understand the lease terms. Thank you Robinson. I am grateful for this car buying experience and all the people who worked with me at Brandon Hyundai. Thank you, Shannon & Richard Damschen, Realtors with Keller Williams Realty

This car has everything I need. I have two growing granddaughters. We can fill this car up and still have room for their car seats.

My old car was my third minivan in 15 years. Now that my kids are older and leaving for college, I wanted something that could carry 6 or 7 passengers but was ... well... NOT a minivan. I did some research on late model used three-row SUVs, and found the 2017 Nissan Pathfinder. (My favorite of my three vans was a 2005 Nissan Quest, so choosing Nissan was easy for me.) Before I started browsing for cars, I applied for credit through Carvana, and was approved. Next, I entered in all of the information about the van I was trading for the Pathfinder. (Beware -- the trade-in amount is only good for 7 days, and it can change wildly in that time!) I was pleased with the trade amount, and it was great that I could shop for my new car and see my down payment and monthly payment for every car I viewed! My specifications were pretty clear -- AWD, less than 10,000 miles, and never a rental car. I found my dream car a few days later, and started the purchase process. It was quite smooth and the directions were very clear about what documents need to be uploaded. When I went to click on "finalize purchase" (or something like that), a red flag popped up...my trade-in value expired WHILE I WAS IN THE PROCESS OF CHECKING OUT! I got on chat with Carvana staff right away, and they were able to return the trade in value to NEARLY what it was before the expiration. This is something that needs to be addressed by Carvana -- once a customer is to a certain point in the process, those numbers need to be frozen. So we set a delivery time, and the Carvana rep was pretty much on time considering he was traveling 70 miles or so from the Chicago office. Everything was smooth -- signed a couple more papers, took my Pathfinder for a spin, Eric inspected my trade, and I left within 30 minutes with my new car. I would also like to add that I drove directly to my mechanic, so he could inspect the car and make sure I wasn't buying something with hidden damage. Mechanic said to me, "This car is perfect, like new." Just what I wanted to hear. Thanks Carvana! I am telling everyone I know about you guys. Good to work with you! Janet - 2017 Nissan Pathfinder

Great little SUV and very roomy inside. Great on gas and good sound system. I like the color and the trunk size. Good deal as well.

Rivard GMC used to service our Yukon XL and the service and professionalism was always top notch. It was this experience and familiarity that led us back to them when we were looking for a mid-size truck. After visiting another GMC dealer where they made little attempt to try and meet our requirement, we went to Rivard. We originally went there to look at a slightly used truck and test drove it but the price was not much less than a new one. Mr Anthony Edwards was very patient and very professional as he showed us their used inventory and newer options. He was very pleasant and forward with valuable information and not pushy with probing questions. He listened to our questions, answered them and offered options. He showed us several new models and broke down the numbers and all were on par or better with another dealer's offer. But his willingness and patience to assist us was the exceptional factor in accepting a very good offer on a new model and gave us a couple of days to ponder. Afterwards we went to a nearby Chevy dealer where we looked at their counterpart model. We told the sales rep we also looked at the GMC version and he concurred the GMC models were a little higher quality than the Chevy version. When we decided on a comparable model and attempted to negotiate a price, the Chevy offer was at least $500 more on supposedly/admittedly a lesser quality than a GMC. They asked what would it take for us to accept their more expensive offer and we reiterated that they have to give us an incentive in lower price to bring us over from the GMC offer. They were not willing to do so and we accepted Mr Edwards offer at Rivard GMC. Mr Anthony Edwards without a doubt has been the most pleasant auto sales rep we have ever dealt. After dealing with other dealers, we felt very confident we received a very good deal from Rivard GMC and Mr Anthony Edwards was the key!

just what i wanted. bought used with 20000 miles. plenty of power for this old 70 yr. old lady. white and clean exterior. only very slight con is gas mileage. this could be better.

As an out-of-state car buyer I was concerned about getting a truck I then shopped the internet and found golden oldies had the truck that I was interested in I got a very quick response from Eric they went out and personally check the truck out for the things I asked particular he said it was a very good truck as an out-of-town buyer I flew into Tampa and was picked up by the courtesy vehicle and Eric after a long delay in Chicago due to weather Eric was just as happy to see me then as he would have been at 12 noon Eric's a great guy he sold me a very good truck I'm very happy so yeah give these guys a shot I also worked at a dealership for 25 years so I know what good and that is

Love it good buy great performance good on gas plenty of room for family nice and comfortable and looks great I would recommend this vehicle for everyone

I am so very great full for your service team James Rivard. Carlos is very professional and respectful and I feel very secure knowing that my car received all the services I took it in for. After three cars with James Rivard I must say that it makes me truly happy to see all the familiar faces each times I schedule for service. Consistency and a family environment will make you feel safe. Thank you Carlos with James Rivard for so many years of excellent service. Awesome!!!! Marcia.

Radio God awful! Won't start about once a month dealership can't figure it out with out it happening in front of them. So I can break down at anytime and Buick nor the dealership will show concern or responsibility. I have 40,000 miles on the car.due to the computer not showing any default they cannot show that the car is not working properly until I get stuck somewhere needs a jump. But once I jump the car it's fine for a couple weeks. Everything is testing 100% when I get it to the dealership. But obviously if it's not turning over and a jump is carrying the factor once a month give or take there's an issue. But the problem is no mechanic from the dealership nor Buick will come out to me when the issue occurrs. But I was told if a mechanic from the dealership goes in and looks at it and they cannot find it due to them being incompetent I will be charged for it. So it's okay for me to drive around in a car that does not work 100% efficient.

We drove two hours from the East coast with our truck and travel trailer as trade, after working with the internet department, to purchase our new Traverse. I was blown away. Ferman has totally upset the car buying experience. When we set out to buy this car, based on previous car buying experiences at other dealers, I meant it when I said I'd rather have another root canal or prep for another colonoscopy than have to deal with a car dealer. They gave us a trade-in value on our truck and trailer before we came from photos and VIN numbers, and offered the price for the Traverse that was advertised on the internet. Even adding back the dealer prep fee, they sold the car for $1411 below invoice. We had done our research, and frankly, I had no information with which to argue the price. They also offered us $3500 more than our local dealer (where we did the traditional four hours with the salesman negotiating price - too long to tell what went wrong there, but we left very unhappy.) When we arrived for our appointment, Nate was waiting for us with the car. He was extraordinarily friendly and a pleasure to deal with. But my wife and I continued to wait for the catch. Are they going to say we don't qualify for one of their incentives? Are they going to argue that the inspection uncovered something with the trade-in? Were they going to sign us up for an usurious interest rate with their preferred lender? We remained skeptical until we were done with the finance officer (and got a lower interest rate than our own bank said was available!) We saved over $5000 from what our local dealer offered. I never thought I would say this about ANY car dealer, but not just recommended, but HIGHLY recommended! Ferman demonstrated what the car buying experience CAN be. The only thing Ferman retains from the traditional dealer industry that gives them a crooked reputation is the dealer prep fee. But as I said, I added that back to their price when comparing against invoice. This is really the only negative thing I could come up with. Oh yeah....the family LOVES the car.

fantastic car for price and value. Looks small from outside but has ample leg room inside. the interior is beautiful and audio system is great.

Good afternoon. I have leased from Courtesy since 1995. I have leased 8/9 cars (lost track!). The last 5 I have had one salesman and I request him every time. His name is Hank Keller. He is not only superior at what he does but during the entire lease he is helpful should I have any problems. I have dealt with so many fantastic techs in the service department that I have lost track of them and lets not forget there is always turnover. Most recently, I give kudos to Kevin, Ghandi, Chad, Harold and many more. They know what they are doing, they are excellent at customer service and they are honest! My favorite cars are the Corolla, Cambry and the Prius. I went back to a Corolla this year. I had the Prius last year and I loved it. The only problem I had with it is that it was too low! I would hit every crub going in and out of driveways. Went back to a Corolla this lease. I have had 6 of them! I particularly loved the color....you call it Blue and I call it Gun Metal Gray. It dazzles and does have a hint of blue when you look at it in the sun. I have one problem with this Corolla......when you lock it from the inside, which I always do, the lock is "under" the door handle. Not good! Otherwise, I love Toyota, I love Courtesy and I love the employees! Thank you Courtesy for coming into my life!

I wanted good gas mileage combined with a vehicle that sat up off the road like a van or truck. The encore does both and handles very well in the snow. I am very pleased with my purchase!

I drive completely out of my way to bring my vehicle to James Rivard. The service department is exceptional! I am always pleased with the speed of repair and communication regarding what is needed. From the Service Manager down, the employees are knowledgeable and friendly. It is always a pleasure.

No room behind the rear sear for very much. Only one arm rest? Hesitation on take off Rear camera is a joke. Very Very expensive to repair

I spent an entire day there and was really taken care of. My car runs great, and the personal treatment I received while I waited was stellar. Dan greeted me very nicely, Bob rolled out the red carpet, and the cashier made me feel like I was at home. I actually did expect to meet nice people there because I had called in advance to talk with someone about making a preventative maintenance budget. The Service Manager spent a lot of time with me, making sure I understood exactly what was needed, when it was needed, a price for each service, and generally made me feel like I could trust all the work to be done by his crew, as a safe and guaranteed bet. He helped me understand that I had my very own set of mechanics I could trust when I needed help. And, this isn't the first time I felt this way. When Saturn vehicles were recalled, they took real good care of me then, as well. Very decent people at this dealership. Thanks, y'all.

This vehicle is the perfect size for my shrinking family and it is great on gas since I travel an hour each way for work.

I returned to Kuhn Honda to lease my second car and had a wonderful experience! Zach called a month ago and suggested I come back in early (about 5 months) and see if there was something we???d want to trade our current leased car (2016 Accord). Tyler was our salesman and Steve/Cory the Mgrs. all were extremely professional and I enjoyed working with them! Special call-out to Andy Johnson in Finance! I have never had such a pleasant experience when closing the deal financially! Thank you!!! D. Mark Peterson

Beautiful interior with all the bells and whistle's. This car is at a whole other level than what I was driving. I look forward to driving every day.

This was such a pleasure! This is the fourth car we have bought and it was wonderful. We worked with Chris Santos and he was amazing!

Great car so far, I thought it was for older people but more of a younger vibe to me. Rides great, no outside road noise, comfy and love the handling.

I’m on my 4th car from there!! Wouldn’t go anywhere else!

Best value car in its class, lots of storage, great mileage, some weird interior styling choices but feels nice overall. Definitely the best small SUV on the market you can get barely used under 20k right now.

I am a car enthusiast! I spend way too much on cars ??? but I work 24/7 and it???s my only hobby. This review will be a bit on the long side, simply because I have so much to say about my experience with Vroom. My wife gets frustrated with me because I talk so often about how amazed I am with Vroom in every aspect! I bought my first car in 1968. Back then I couldn???t afford much, but since about 1979 I???ve purchased some very cool cars. I even bought a brand new Rolls Royce back in 1985. I???ve owned: exactly 10 Mercedes, Jaguar, Ferrari, Audi R8, BMW, Range Rover and several others. So when it comes to dealing with car dealerships, I feel like I???ve become rather expert ??? AND a huge skeptic of car dealerships!!! When you buy a high-end car, you lose SOOO MUCH money, as soon as you drive it off the showroom floor. So the last time we purchased cars, we decided to purchase nearly-new cars with very low mileage on them. We bought an Audi R8 and a Mercedes SL63. And it turned out GREAT. No regrets. So now it was time to sell those cars and buy two more. I happened across Vroom.com in my Internet search, and found the perfect cars for both my wife and I at the same place ??? Vroom.com. The cars are nearly identical to the same cars we???ve been driving, but just newer. A 2014 Audi R8 and a 2014 SL63 ??? both with about 3,500 miles on them. Even the same colors as our previous cars. I got bids from several companies to sell our cars to. Vroom offered the highest amounts on both of our cars!! And it was FAR easier to sell to them than any other company. Unbelievably simple! And the prices for the newer 2014 cars was extremely fair. I flew out from South Orange County, California to Vroom to look at and drive both cars. Vroom picked me up at the airport and brought me back to the airport. I was extremely impressed with Vroom and their showroom. And without exception, every single person I???ve spoken with and dealt with at Vroom has been not only helpful and enthusiastic, but GENUINELY concerned about making me happy. Even after the sale they keep contacting me to see how I???m doing and to ask if there???s anything that I need. They got me great financing! Less than 3% interest rate. I had no clue that you could do that with a ???used??? car. No other buying or trade-in experience I???ve ever had comes even close to how great, simple and fast this was. Oh???and they shipped the cars from Texas to us at NO CHARGE, and picked up our two cars at the same time. And the nice young man who delivered the cars was fabulous. He was so very, very careful with our cars. And not only do they have their guarantee ??? I believe you have a week or so to drive the car, and if you don???t like it, they will take the car back. They even told me several times (even after I???d purchased the cars) that if for some reason we decided we did not want the cars, they would come pick them up and truck them back to Texas at NO COST to use. Unbelievable!! Well, my wife is now also so impressed that she no longer is frustrated with me for talking about Vroom so much, and telling all my friends. In fact, I???ve already asked Vroom to look for a car for my daughter. I now would not think of getting her car anywhere else than Vroom. I mentioned before that I???m a skeptic when it comes to car salesmen and dealerships. So if I was you reading this, the first thing I???d wonder is, ???Why is this guy writing this review? Are they paying him???..???? Well, I don???t know any of the people at Vroom. I spent so much time on this review simply because I believe that when people deserve credit, and they treat you so nicely, you should reciprocate and sing their praises. My name is Dr. Rod Kurthy. I???m a dentist and I own a dental products company in Southern California.

Meets my needs and can carry 2 German Shepherds. Handles very well. Good gas mileage so far. Love this vehicle! Got me home in the first snow storm.

Just purchased a 2018 certified pre-owned Buick LaCrosse Essence yesterday. The whole experience was non-stressful and enjoyable. Chris, Dave, and Bert were exceptionally professional and pleasant to work with! Many thanks for such a positive transaction, Jacqueline H.

Overall, my Buick encore all wheel drive is a nice ride. However, my general experience with the auto stop technology is not good. Within two years, the auto stop feature caused my brand new battery to die, leaving me stranded On a major roadway in the middle of rush hour. My personal opinion is that the auto stop feature is pointless and I will never buy another car with auto stop. Hey on a major roadway in the middle of rush hour. My personal opinion is that the auto stop feature is pointless and I will never buy another car with auto stop.

Bill was veryhelpful and service was great. Waiting room fine. Popcorn good and decaf coffee. Clean. Friendly. Don???t like to have to have 25 words or more. What can I say. Car was washed and vacuumed. Oil was changed and I can only assume it was done right! And tires rotated. They seem ok. Is that enough? 😂

Our Encore has all the features we were looking for in a (newer) car and we are pleased with the way it performs after 4 months of driving it. We are very comfortable with the extended "Certified" warranty and service package offered to us and trust this is the beginning to a long term relationship with GM and Buick that we will be happy with.

I highly recommend everyone to visit Hertz Car Sales Clearwater on 21154 US Hwy 19 N, Clearwater, FL 33765. Great selection of cars and very good prices. Bobby Hamilton is a very professional sales rap, very kind and polite. He made my shopping experience a real breeze, fast and easy. Thank you.

This car is above what I wanted. It has a lot of leg room in front. I love the remote entry. I love how cold the air conditioner get.

I was greeted by Mr. Donald Seufzer, Service Advisor on Friday, October 6, 2017 @ 4:30 p.m., I have known Mr. Donald for over 3 years. He has the natural caring and ability of taking care of the customer's needs in a sincere way. Mr. Donald is a big asset to the dealer and in the future he should get promoted. Because of his outstanding customer service, I will continue to come to this dealer for the excellent services Mr. Donald and staff provides. He does his job well and he is one of the best Service Advisor I have ever came across! Sincerely, Enrique Hoyos

Great car!! Many great features. Overall it’s just what I wanted, a compact SUV that rides and handles like a small luxury car. Everything I expected It to be.

I left an unfavorable review below because I did not receive good customer service when we purchased the car. The store manager called me personally to apologize and will address with his team. He also sent me the operators manual for the car that we purchased since the salesman that sold me that car told me that the car is purchased as is without it. The store manager made it right and I appreciate him for it. Thanks.

I felt very comfortable sitting as a passenger and driver. It handled easily on the interstate and in town. It has all the extras that I need and are easy to access.

Great experience purchasing a car. No hassle. Staff was friendly and attentive. They let me do my thing but checked on me often. Was there on a Saturday - weekends are busy for them. Left with a great deal on a car!! Will definitely be back! My best advice.. use their site and pre-check your financing. It will save you time. Great company!

I love the car so far, but have only owned it for 3 days, so there may be some glitches or reliability issues I'm not aware of, but as of now I love it.
