He alway that i went back to Champion with Jim Finnegan because he was the friendly salesman I had work with this time when I was looking for a car. He always kept in touch with me and took me to several of his lots to make sure I would find what I was looking for. And I did. I am very happy with my vehicle. More

I have purchased vehicles for over 20 years of my professional life. As with all experiences, there have been both positive and negative ones over the years. I must say that the experience at Champ professional life. As with all experiences, there have been both positive and negative ones over the years. I must say that the experience at Champion rates as the absolute best of all my car experiences. Even though this was a late model used car, I received much better service and attention than many new car purchases I have made. Victor stayed in regular contact without being pushy. Albert followed up, thanked me for my business, and verified that they had delivered quality service. Dealing with finance (Chance) was a breeze as well. From the moment, I walked into the dealership, to test drive, negotiations, and purchase it was a total of one hour. The whole staff was courteous and helpful. The true test of customer service is (1) Will I go back? and (2) will I recommend to others? The answer is definitely YES. Thanks for an awesome experience! Mitch More

I would like to thank you all for everything. My experience in purchasing my new vehicle went great. Scotty was able to always take care of me during my service appointments with my pervious vehicl experience in purchasing my new vehicle went great. Scotty was able to always take care of me during my service appointments with my pervious vehicle. He is always there for the customer. When I finally decided to purchase a new vehicle, he was there to guide me to a sales rep (Joe) that he trusts. Joe is fantastic. He had all the answers to my questions. He made purchasing my vehicle a little less stressful. He slowly helped me understand the vehicle I was looking to buy (2011 Tacoma). He never pressured me or tried to force my decision on this truck. I thank him greatly for that. He has a great professional attitude and personality. He also helped me prior to the final purchasing paperwork. He introduced me to Cooper. Cooper walked me through the financial process and seemed to be very honest in answering my questions. He seems to really love his job and to help all customers in getting the vehicle that they dream about. Going through the financial process is the most stressful part of purchasing. He made it much easier than expected. I look forward to being a long time customer with the Champion Toyota Team. My experience with the entire Champion Team was great and I will try to bring new customers to Joe's door. Thanks you again. Sincerely, Felix E. Truett III More

This is the best dealership I have bought a car from ever. Noooo Pressure. They know there product. I looked online for a used vehicle and asked for help, they responded within a hour. Talked to them a ever. Noooo Pressure. They know there product. I looked online for a used vehicle and asked for help, they responded within a hour. Talked to them about my price range and we worked with that. I got the vehicle I wanted below book value. Two other dealerships kept trying to sell me more than I wanted to spend, they were so pushy and my wife and I felt so pressured. We had saved our money to buy a car (CASH) and did not want a payment. Trying to get out of debt is alot harder than going in debt. I will buy another car from Steve, very humble person with loads of knowledge and patience. Just have to start saving again. More

I have been taking my lexus and toyota cars to Champion Toyota for since 2004. There have been some service members who would see you and dont say anything for several minutes, and when it seems that no o Toyota for since 2004. There have been some service members who would see you and dont say anything for several minutes, and when it seems that no one is going to help you then they say "May I help you". Well... Those service reps are no longer working there that I know off. However, Since working with Scotty from the service department, he has been very helpful in taking care of the problems of my cars. When ever I go to do any type of service, I specifically ask for Scotty. He always puts the needs of the customers first, ensuring that they feel important and that their car problems will be handled correctly. He makes recommendation based on the need of the car, to ensure that it runs perfectly as if it is his own car. I can honestly say that it is hard to find people like scotty who puts his whole heart in the job that he does. If there was more people like him, I can honestly say that Champion toyota will continue to excel in customer service. In my recent purchase of my Tundra Crew Max 2011, it had a few issues with it, and I can honestly say that it was kind of disappointing that I had encountered such problems. However, becuase of Scotty professional service, he ensure that my truck was handled correctly. For example: when my truck was purchased some of the items on my old truck was moved to the new truck. While doing so, there were some minor scratches that were on the door. Well, when the truck was sent to the shop to be fixed, it had be be done twice becuase he did not accept the first time becuase he did not like it. I honestly feel that he took ownership of the truck as if it was his and would want it to be perfect which I very much appreciated his outstanding ethics. Most people wouldnt even take a second glance and just give it back to the customer, but I am glad that Scotty is in a different catagory. He takes care of his customers and I believe that all should follow in his foot steps. Just yesterday after getting my truck from toyota, as I cleaned my truck I found another scratch that I reported to Scotty, and becuase of his great attitude and professional customer service, he said "I will ensure that it gets corrected and have it back to you as soon as possible". Again, I very much appreciated his efforts and left the dealership happy. Scotty, Keep up the great work, and for you managers, you should make him "Employee of the Month". More

In the fall of '09 I purchased my used 2009 Tacoma from a private individual. He recomended Scott Evans as his service advisor. I contacted Scott and set up our first visit to the Corpus Christi Champion T a private individual. He recomended Scott Evans as his service advisor. I contacted Scott and set up our first visit to the Corpus Christi Champion Toyota. He proved everytime to be an excellant service person. Scott has assisted me with my truck ever since (he's awesome). Two weeks ago I called Scott and scheduled my truck for servicing. While waiting on my truck to be serviced (which took less than an hour) I told him I was looking for a used vehicle for the wife. He introduce me to Leonard Espinoza (TCUV Sales Consultant). Leo told me of a a 2009 Highlander he had just received. I thanked him and said I would tell the wife about it. He gave me his card. The following Saturday I called Leo and told him we would like to come and see the Highlander. He said come on over. When we arrived one of the sales person greeted us on the lot. I told him we were here to see Leo. He went and brought Leo to us. Leo said he was currently with another customer and asked if it would be alright if Tom Sanchez could assist us with the vehicle. Tom showed us the Highlander. He let the wife test drive it along with several other wehicles on the lot(she did not know if she wanted a car or a SUV). After spending a several hours with Tom we agreed the Highlander was the vehicle she was interested in and Tom and I began discussing price. I told him we would think about it over the weekend. He offered to let us take it home over the weekend and we said said no thank you. Monday morning I called Tom and the rest is history. Now not only am I a proud owner of a Toyota but so is the wife. Many Thanks to Scott, Leo, and Tom at Corpus Christi Champion Toyota. REAGAN ARNOLD More

It was hands down the best car buying experience I had. Definitely worth the drive from Houston!! I would do it again. As I said, I live in Houston, TX and my lease was about due on my vehicle so I nee Definitely worth the drive from Houston!! I would do it again. As I said, I live in Houston, TX and my lease was about due on my vehicle so I needed to buy a new car. A friend of mine from Houston recommended that I consider looking at Champions Toyota in Corpus Christi. He bought his last Tundra there and said that he had a great experience with Champions. It was a bit far for me and I was skeptical that it would be worthwhile, but I'm big on personal recommendations so thought I would give it a chance. I called in to Champions and was immediately connected with Paul Beaudoin in their sales department. In short order I told him was I was looking for and at what price. In less than 30 minute, Paul called me back with the exact vehicle I wanted and at the price that I asked for. Everyone I dealt with, from their sales department to their service department, was extremely helpful and friendly. They made the whole buying experience EASY. The things that stood our most was that Scott Abplanalp, their Reconditioning Manager, did a thorough walk-thru with me to make sure I was 100% satisfied. They detailed the car before I got there. It's easy when things go well, but the true test is when there are issues. Since I was buying a used Jeep, I didn't expect everything would be perfect and as it turned out, I found that the jack was missing. It was pretty minor, so I thought that they wouldn't give it too much attention. To my surprise, Paul went out of his way to order me a new jack and had it shipped immediately to my house in Houston. Great attention to detail and service. More
