Paramount Ford

I'm also one of those people who spent an incredible amount of time researching vehicles, prices, safety ratings, and the value of my current automobile as a trade-in. I finally narrowed the choices dow amount of time researching vehicles, prices, safety ratings, and the value of my current automobile as a trade-in. I finally narrowed the choices down to two SUVs. The reviews on Hyundai's Vera Cruz were positive, but I'd owned a Toyota in the past and was moving in that direction. With low expectations (and armed with all my internet research), I agreed to visit the Paramount dealership in Valdese. I can not say enough positive things about the experience. They pair you with a salesperson prior to arrival. Michael Connell was there to greet me and it was wonderful not being overwhelmed by a swarm of salespeople. He was professional, friendly, knowledgeable and informative. There was absolutely no pressure. Instead of wanting to bolt for the door, I was quite comfortable asking even the most difficult questions. When listing all the positives and negatives, purchasing the Hyundai Vera Cruz was my best choice. I truly believe my visit to Valdese is what made me seriously consider the Hyundai. Anyone looking to buy should at least check out this dealership for a friendly, informative, and hassle free experience. Thank you Michael and Allen Pruett (business manager) for making this purchase a pleasant and satisfying experience. Peggy H More

Scott was such a pleasure to work with and made an otherwise very stressful situation very easy and pleasant. Scott treated me with the up most respect and as a woman that is saying a lot. I had tot otherwise very stressful situation very easy and pleasant. Scott treated me with the up most respect and as a woman that is saying a lot. I had totaled my car and was in need of another and had not ever purchased a car on my own before. I had been looking for more than two weeks and had come in contact with several different salesmen and being a woman I was not always taken seriously and at times was made to feel as though I didn't have a clue about what I was looking for or doing. That was NOT the case when I began talking with Scott. Scott listened to what I wanted in a car and what I was looking for and understood my budget. Never once did he pressure me into going over what I had stated I could afford. He also never made me feel as though my budget was ridiculous or impossible(as others had made me begin to feel). He treated me with respect and did not make me feel like I didn't know anything but made me feel as though I was important and that he would do everything in his power to make it happen for me. And that is exactly what he did! Not only that but I live almost two hours away and he saved me a trip and had my car delivered. To go from never buying a car on my own to buying a car sight unseen was for me both crazy and amazing. I would definitely buy another car from Scott McKinney and Paramount Ford and have told everyone I know about my experience! I have to say it was a wonderful experience and I know Scott went out of his way on his end to make it the great experience it was for me. THANK YOU, SCOTT!!!!!!! You have a LIFETIME customer in me! Maybe the next time I buy a car from you we will actually get to meet in person! But if not I know that any car I buy from you will be all you say it is and so much more and that you will always treat me with respect and make the experience great! I LOVE MY 2005 CHEVY EQUINOX!!!!!!!! More

Mr. Kidd made this a great visit. He was extremely helpful in answering all questions. He went the extra mile to ensure we got the car we wanted and the price we wanted. helpful in answering all questions. He went the extra mile to ensure we got the car we wanted and the price we wanted. More

Buying from Michael at Paramount was entirely worth the extra drive for me from Charlotte and was as pleasant an experience as car buying can be. We negotiated price before I even saw the car (having test extra drive for me from Charlotte and was as pleasant an experience as car buying can be. We negotiated price before I even saw the car (having test driven several in Charlotte), they were able to reduce my bank's offered interest rate and at no time were they pushy, rude, condescending or any other adjective one equates with car salesmen. No last minute items were pushed other than an extended warranty (pretty sure everyone does that these days). I let the business manager go over the details but when I politely declined I wasn't pressured to make a different decision. I received what I feel is a fair price and while only time will tell on the actual car it's a pre-owned certified so no worries on the quality of the vehicle. I'm not one to buy cars all that often but I'll definitely be sending anyone in the market over to talk to the guys here. More

Friendly atmosphere; no pressure; easy transition from inquirer to buyer to owner. From sales to management to finance, at no time did my buying experience have the usual new car buy today pressure.

I like working with Jonathan K. We talked directedly to each other; I stated my needs and he showed me the possibilities. The car he said I wanted was not on the lot and he researched and found me one in each other; I stated my needs and he showed me the possibilities. The car he said I wanted was not on the lot and he researched and found me one in Charlotte. He did the paperwork and had me out of there in a reasonable time. He told me I would like the drive and I do! It was worth the two day wait. I will work with Jonathan again as the need arrises. I will also recommend him and the dealership to friends. More

My wife and I would call ourselves very discriminating customers. We went to four dealerships, before visiting Paramount Ford, over the last six months looking for a new F150 truck. Each dealership made customers. We went to four dealerships, before visiting Paramount Ford, over the last six months looking for a new F150 truck. Each dealership made us feel like we were just another mark. Mark Robinson treated us with the utmost of respect. Allen Pruett took us through the financing of our new Ford. He clearly explained everything that we were signing. We will highly recommend our friend go to Paramount Ford for their next car or truck purchase. More

Good group of guys. It appeared that we would not be able to continue negotiations as initial estimate for my trade in was missed badly and offer was withdrawn, however, Frank was able to work with me a able to continue negotiations as initial estimate for my trade in was missed badly and offer was withdrawn, however, Frank was able to work with me and provide information and additional incentives to allow the trade to go forward. He did so without insulting me as well and no hard sell. Rare. Great car. Thx again, al More
