Jim Ellis Hyundai

We just purchased our second car from Jim Ellis. Our first, just four months ago, was a Genesis, which made us fans of Hyundai. After comparing the Honda Civic to the Elantra for our 17-year-old daughte first, just four months ago, was a Genesis, which made us fans of Hyundai. After comparing the Honda Civic to the Elantra for our 17-year-old daughter, we chose the Elantra for a number of features that boosted the overall safety and quality for that class of car. We wanted to buy from Jim Ellis because we liked their attitude and approach with customers. The final choice of dealer, however, boiled down to our making a solid business decision. Dealing openly and fairly, they offered the best possible value. We would (and have recommended) this dealership to friends and family with pleasure and utmost confidence. SB, Duluth, Georgia More

"I purchased a Santa Fe at your dealership this week and wanted to share my experience w/ you. I have been buying cars for 30+ years a I never had an experience that made me want to buy another car f and wanted to share my experience w/ you. I have been buying cars for 30+ years a I never had an experience that made me want to buy another car from the same place. So imagine how 'excited' I was to walk into the showroom on a busy Sat... an older lady on a budget clutching a hand-full of internet print-outs - every salesman's nightmare. Then I was introduced to Chris - the lot manager -who helped me cull my internet list of 9 possible makes of cars to 3. He was courteous, patient and very helpful [and happily the Santa Fe made the cut list]. I met Bill Morrow online and made an apt to test drive that day. BEST decision I made all week. Bill was cheerful, courteous, professional, knowledgeable- and worked his tukus off to try to get me what I wanted at the price I could afford. He never patronized me or played the sales game. I probably drove him crazy - I know my test drive gave him a new white hair or two- but he was always cheerful and ready to help. I can honestly say that I have finally had a good car experience thanks to Bill !!!!! ps: and I love my new red SFe More

Sales consultant was a kind and experienced professional. Except that the dealer lacks car insurance information, overall service is greatly satisfactory. I thank him for his consultation.

I just purchased a 2012 Hyundai Elantra from Jim Ellis Hyundai. It’s been some time since I’ve purchased a car, and was not looking forward to the hustle and bustle of the process. In December, I came i Hyundai. It’s been some time since I’ve purchased a car, and was not looking forward to the hustle and bustle of the process. In December, I came into Jim Ellis Hyundai looking for my new car, I sucked up what I had left in me to look at a final dealership and there I found myself meeting with a salesperson. Having been through this process 100 times in the past few weeks, I was expecting the same ol’ skit, the same ol’attitude and the same ol’ disappointment – Little did I know how impress I would be walking away from Jim Ellis Hyundai – with my new car. I am currently reading a book called “The Fred Factor”. It’s management style book on how normal people can turn ordinary into the extraordinary by simply having passion and caring about going above and beyond for their customers each and every day. I experienced nothing short of a “Fred” while purchasing my new car. To keep the privacy of the name of my sales guy, I’ll just refer to him as “Fred”… It only seems fitting. Fred greeted me with such enthusiasm, not the fake kind you encounter when someone is sales hungry, but a genuine smile that was warm and welcoming. This immediately put all my anxiety aside and I was excited again about looking for my new car. Fred sat me at his desk and went over exactly what was important to me, he asked me what I liked, what I didn’t like, what I wanted VS. what I needed, he was very helpful in helping me decide precisely what would fit my needs. Fred offered me something to drink, coffee actually, because I mentioned how tired I was, and even made it exactly like I drank it. Fred then drove around a car that we talked about and allowed me to test drive it. The Test Drive: Fred took me to an area that was not very busy so I would be able to test out the new vehicle without worrying about traffic, stop lights etc.. Before we took off he was so kind as to tell me exactly what everything was, how it worked and how it would benefit me.. Fred was serious about me understanding the ins and outs of the car! My prior test drives at other dealers were quick and I left with so many questions, Fred made sure all my questions were answered. There’s a quote in this book I am reading, “The way you move through life joyfully and successfully is by focusing on what you give rather than on what you get”. Fred was not focused on anything other than helping me, really helping me. When we arrived back at the dealership, I was greeted a handful of times by other sales guys, just saying hello, they were also busy helping other people, but they all waived and said hello in passing, they were all so welcoming … wow!! Fred then sat me down again, he overcame my objections and was not pushing me to buy a car at all!! Fred wanted what was best for me, not for him… Needless to say, I bought my 2012 Elantra from Fred because he really narrowed down exactly what I wanted, I did not feel pressured and the customer service throughout Jim Ellis Hyundai was one I had not experienced in a very long time. I cant say enough about this team of men and women and have since referred four people to them -- they all have the same great things to say. Thank you Jim Ellis Hyundai and your team for making what could have been a continuous nightmare into a wonderful, hassle-free experience. -2012 Elantra More

Having lived in Atlanta all of my life, I used Jim Ellis’ Volkswagen service department for my VW back in the mid1970s. I’ve grown up hearing the name, but I now understand why the dealership has been around Volkswagen service department for my VW back in the mid1970s. I’ve grown up hearing the name, but I now understand why the dealership has been around for so many years. In October of 2011, my wife had an accident that totaled her older model Volvo. Shortly after the incident, her mother passed away, so she was not in a frame of mind to do much car shopping. Entrusting me to find her the best replacement, I chose to buy a Hyundai. The manufacturer has an unbeatable warranty and impressive safety offerings. After test driving a Genesis, my wife and I were both sold on the car, but we were determined to buy it wisely. Learning the different features and options of each model, I visited every Hyundai Dealership in Greater Atlanta. I also searched Autotrader.com and Overstock.com on a daily basis. If the right opportunity came along, I was prepared to purchase a car out of state. I wanted a Genesis with a V-6 engine, plus a technology package and the lowest possible mileage—a combination that was not easy to find. During the process, I encountered a number of “bait and switch” situations in which dealerships posted photos and prices that did not match the vehicles they had to sell. A general manager of one well-known local dealership attempted to raise the price of a car I test drove by overcharging for a few add-ons. In contrast, Wes Ellis, General Manager of Jim Ellis, went out of his way to earn my trust. Convincing me that he would find the right car at the right price, I stopped searching and let Wes and salesman Raul Sanchez put their expertise to work. They finally found a 2011 V-6 Genesis with a tech package out of state, and we came to an agreement. That was in January of 2012. The car arrived in immaculate condition, and Wes added on a few extras at no charge. Immediately after I signed the contract, Wes made a congratulatory announcement over the dealership's intercom as a gesture of goodwill and appreciation for my business. Additionally, the purchase was a surprise to my wife (she believed I was still searching for a car), so Wes and Raul offered to accompany me home to amplify the surprise and give my wife a tutorial on how to operate all of the gadgets! Raul patiently spent a good hour going through all of the technology. My daughter will soon be ready for a car, and I cannot imagine buying it from any other dealership. Jim Ellis has always operated with the motto, "Expect the Best." I wasn’t so certain I could expect the best from a car salesman, but I learned that Wes Ellis and his dealership, deliver on that promise.
