I had a good experience When we arrived we were offered beverages and popcorn. We had Kenny Lau whom helped us. We had our eyes on a used SUV but it was out of our price limi When we arrived we were offered beverages and popcorn. We had Kenny Lau whom helped us. We had our eyes on a used SUV but it was out of our price limit for monthly payments. Kenny helped us find a brand new 2015 Kia Forte. I was kind of hesitant at first since it's definitely not an SUV, but when we got the call that it was in our price range and we could have it if we wanted it we were sold. I absolutely love this car, and so does our son. We even got the 2 six flags vip gold season passes (we used them yesterday and had a great time!) I was a little discouraged since I traded in my 2009 Lancer Ralliart and was given back less then what I still owed on it. However, Kenny informed us of the work that actually had to be done to it. All and all it was a good experience we walked away happy and now have a 2015 Kia Forte. THANK YOU DESTINATION KIA, KENNY LAU AND MATT PANARO! More

2nd Lease Kia's Pull Ahead Lease Program was an effective way to terminate one lease and move into another. Overall the service was excellent with the sales tea Kia's Pull Ahead Lease Program was an effective way to terminate one lease and move into another. Overall the service was excellent with the sales team staying after hours on our initial visit. Destination Kia certainly lived up to being an award winning dealership. However there is always room for improvement. On the day we picked up the new vehicle we at one point waited for 45 minutes with very little interaction. Also as mentioned in a previous review I too was blindsided by the finance manager's explanation of the service contracts which altered the monthly lease payment. I would have expected the sales team to have prepped me for that conversation. On the whole a quality car leasing experience. More

Excellent Salespeople My overall experience at Destination Kia was great. I knew Kia was really my only option for a low priced new car. The warranty can't be beat and the My overall experience at Destination Kia was great. I knew Kia was really my only option for a low priced new car. The warranty can't be beat and the quality is on par with other vehicles in the respective classes. I didn't want to rush into signing away a bunch of money and Stephenie never made me feel pressured. We talked about a few options over the phone and she had them ready for me when I arrived. She was calm and knowledgeable about the cars. With my limited budget she helped me find the perfect car. The manager Shaun went out of his way to make sure I was being taken car of and Matt, the finance guy, got me a great interest rate with having "zero" credit. If you or someone you know is looking for a car, Destination Kia is the place to go. I purchased a Kia Rio with a 6-speed manual transmission and it is so much fun to drive! Its nothing fancy but it is exactly what I needed. More
My third lease with these guys! This is my third optima I have leased with these guys. I had not planned on re-leasing a new vehicle each of these times. However, the deal was too This is my third optima I have leased with these guys. I had not planned on re-leasing a new vehicle each of these times. However, the deal was too good to pass up. This most recent experience was excellent. The sales individual I dealt with was very knowledgeable. We were unable to come to a deal initially. The sales person called me a few weeks later and was able to put together a great deal for me. I couldn't pass it up. He was also able to put me in a more expensive car with more options. I have definitely recommended this dealer in the past and will continue to recommend them. I look forward to working with them in the future. More

I obviously went with him in the purchase of his new 2015 KIA Sportage vehicle and I must say, I loved the experience. Peter Karian was our sales person and he did a tremendous job in satisfying us and ensuring that we got the best car we needed, best price, and best down-payments. Because of his service, due to some circumstances that I had to get a car of my own, I decided that I wanted to get my first car from KIA and having only Peter being my sales person. The first car I looked at and was close to getting was a 2012 Suzuki Kisashi. Unfortunately, I was denied of the car because of my credit score etc... I thought that everything was over for me and the possibility of my getting a car was slim. However, Peter pulled through and was able to get me a BRAND NEW CAR! I was more than excited to hear the news. A new car, lower payments, good price, and a satisfied customer. I loved Peter's service and I would recommend anyone who is going to Destination KIA to go to Peter. He is the man for the job! More

My husband had been reading good reviews about the 2015 KIA Sorrento so we decided to have a test drive. We were set up with an associate named Matt Grayson and the whole process was a breeze. I loved the car, and the options that came with it, and they were able to work with us on the monthly price. I can't recommend Matt enough. He was friendly, very knowledgable, and even worked around our schedule for pick up of the vehicle. He has also called to make sure we are happy with our purchase. We will be back to Destination KIA when the time comes to trade in or up, again! More
