Every one was very professional and friendly, Mr. Castillo gave us time to check the car and ask as many questions we wanted, we came with a different option, but the car was sold, so they gave us a Castillo gave us time to check the car and ask as many questions we wanted, we came with a different option, but the car was sold, so they gave us a very nice alternative and try to match the price as close as possible.

Peter Haley was wonderfully helpful in getting my car in at the last moment when I called saying I needed my air conditioner fixed while on a trip from San Antonio.

My limited edition Beetle was fixed in a more than a timely manner and returned to me clean. He was very helpful and I was very happy with the service, as usual!

The sales associate that I worked with, Bobby Owens, was wonderful! He was very helpful with finding the car that I wanted in the price range that I was willing to do. Even after the sale, he has answered q wonderful! He was very helpful with finding the car that I wanted in the price range that I was willing to do. Even after the sale, he has answered questions I've had. He took the time to show me how everything works on the Tiguan before I left the dealership. The finance employee, Joe Verhey, was nice but he added things to my paperwork that I was not aware of which made the price increase. I am new at purchasing a new car so it frustrated me that he would add things to the paperwork without asking or explaining to me my options. It was told in a way that the extra warrenties and fees were not an option. I had to return to the dealership to have new paperwork done to take off opptional fees. Over all, my experience with Boardwalk McKinney Volkswagen was good especially dealing with my sales associate. I have told several people to go to McKinney VW if they are looking for a new car! More
Willy Castillo was an awesome VW rep. He was not a pushy salesperson, but instead he was very patient and informative. He gave us plenty of time to look for what we wanted, then he gave us many options to d salesperson, but instead he was very patient and informative. He gave us plenty of time to look for what we wanted, then he gave us many options to decide what vehicle was for us. He also made the process much less stressful, by putting a smile on our faces! John and Jeff are the management team that really runs the dealership. Without them, I think VW of McKinney would not be successful. Give it up to both of them to make things happen. VW corporate office needs to have more individuals like Willy, John and Jeff. More
I was not planning on purchasing a VW at all. After doing a lot of research, I decided to take a look at the VW. I visited 2 other VW dealers before coming to McKinney location. One of the VW dealership did a lot of research, I decided to take a look at the VW. I visited 2 other VW dealers before coming to McKinney location. One of the VW dealership did not really take me seriously, probably because I am a woman. They were more interested in watching football game in the showroom. While the other was very aggressive trying to close the deal until we got stuck on the price. Dave Snow approached us while we were looking at the cars on the lot. I told him what I was looking for. He didn't try to give me the annoying typical sales pitch. He was geniune while working with us that we actually had a great time. I recall the amount of time for him to close the deal was about 30 minutes, and it was less than 2 hrs from the time we walked in the dealership till we drove off with my new purchase. It was the quickest purchase for us ever!! I know I could have got a better pricing if I continued to shop more. But we enjoyed working with Dave that we decided to buy the car from him and make his day. More
It is my pleasure to write this letter of recommendation on behalf of Dave Snow and Jon Donahue. I am extremely happy with my decision on leasing a 2011 CC. I am most impressed by the level of professiona on behalf of Dave Snow and Jon Donahue. I am extremely happy with my decision on leasing a 2011 CC. I am most impressed by the level of professionalism, courtesy, LISTENING SKILLS and EXTREME patience. I originally purchased a VW Jetta GLI from Metro VW in Sept. 2009 and had a great experience with them. I had a lease, allowing me only 12,000 miles. As of January 2011 I had 28,000 miles! I decided to go to McKinney Dealership because I had moved to Frisco and it was a closer location for me. When I first walked into the dealership back in January, I had a HORRIBLE experience with the previous Sales Consultant there. Without going into too much detail, the Sales Consultant clearly needed some sales training on how to listen to their customers instead of jumping into a sale that had NOTHING to do with what I was looking for. My goal was to get a lower monthly payment or get into a new car with more miles putting little to nothing down as I was trading in a car. The Sales consultant at the time, said "Great news! We can get you a CC for $535 a month, but you'll have to put $10,000 down! Or you can get that brown Passat for around the same montly payment your paying now" After asking him what that payment would be, his response was "close to $500 a month." I thought this was a joke!! After sitting there for 3 1/2 hours, he couldnt tell me what my payment would be. Me being a Sales Manager for a Luxury Home Builder and in sales (and him knowing that after the first 10 seconds after meeting him), I thought I would have been one of his easiest clients. I told him EXACTLY what I was hoping to accomplish and didnt want to play the sales game, and just wanted to see if it was possible for me to trade in my lease for a new lease because of my overage on miles, or buy my car. Long story short, I walked out of there after 3 1/2 hours extremely frusterated and upset and 3 steps behind where I originally was. Dave Snow had gotten a hold of my file back in January and his follow up skills were impecible!! He put in a great amount of effort into bringing me back into McKinney Volkswagon. I had explained my situation in great detail over the phone and the reasoning for me not wanting to come back to your dealership based on the level of service I had first received. I was so taken back on my first visit, that I never thought I would EVER lease again, step foot in McKinney VW or ever buy a Volkswagon for that matter. Dave was extremely patient with me and my crazy busy work schedule. Dave even went the extra mile for me and would email me updates on how I can make my situation work and get out of my lease quicker. After months of him following up with me, I felt comfortable going back in and giving it another try. Dave built trust by remembering my situation and took the time to really understand what I was looking to accomplish. Within 15 minutes of being there, he was able to tell me that it was possible and I was able to get what I wanted in a car! He not only showed me the features of this car, but the BENEFITS of how it will make my work more convenient being on the road so much. Jon took the time to greet me and thank me for coming in and giving it another shot. When we got down to the financial end of it, Jon was able to make the deal happen without any hesitation with a smile on his face. Jon would pop in every so often to make sure I was ok and things were going smoothly. I saw the enthusiasm that Dave Snow and Jon Donahue had for their job and it is that enthusiasm that makes them such a tremendous team and so successful at what they do. In summary, Dave and Jon put in a great amount of time and I really appreciate their efforts and assistance. I can honestly say, that I will reccommend this team to friends and family. Thanks again!!

When my husband and I first visited McKinney VW it was only to look at the new Jetta model, since we were customers at another local dealership. Knowing that information up front, Willie still took an ho only to look at the new Jetta model, since we were customers at another local dealership. Knowing that information up front, Willie still took an hour of his time showing us the new 2011 Jetta and even took us on a test drive. He was kind, patient and very informative. He wished us the best of luck as we left McKinney VW that evening and my husband and I both commented on what a nice change that was from the typical pushy saleman approach. We received follow up phone calls from Willie; he was never pushy, but always appreciative of the opportunity to share VW with us. Willie always wished my family a good day and never forgot to wish my daughter a happy day as well....she loves him! It was Willie's spirit that brought us back to McKinney VW. The true feeling that he wanted to work for us and wanted what was best for our family. He along with John and Matthew helped us become the owners of a beautiful new 2011 Jetta. They all worked very hard for us and we will certainly recommend McKinney VW to our friends and family. More
