Paramount Kia of Asheville

Great experience! Great employees! Great SUV! We looked for about 6 weeks and spent hours at 7 different area dealerships. We were wanting to upgrade from the Kia Soul we had to something that wou We looked for about 6 weeks and spent hours at 7 different area dealerships. We were wanting to upgrade from the Kia Soul we had to something that would seat an extra person comfortably and had AWD and most importantly, something that would fit within our budget. We were very specific and upfront as to what we could afford. We had "fair" credit (634) and a fixed monthly budget. We went to Hyundai of Asheville because we had purchased most recently there. Horrible experience! Lots of young, wet-behind-the-ear staff. We were told in a very condescending manner that we had "unrealistic expectations" and that was after we were pressured into staying past the time we told them we couldn't do what they offered. We went to Kia and had a great experience with Ben Brendle, but weren't able to get an APR we were comfortable with financing. Brandon Braswell said he'd keep working on it. A couple weeks went by and we received a phone call saying that they had something for us. We returned to Paramount Kia and met Jodi Biltoten. We arrived about 6:00pm after my husband got off work. Jodi showed us an AWD 2015 Sorento with less than 25,000 miles and certified pre-owned. We test drove it and it was exactly we had been looking for - complete with optional third row seating for extra passengers. Jodi was very knowledgable and extremely helpful and SUPER nice. Brandon Braswell was able to take our Kia Soul in trade and worked with banks to get us an APR that was 2.0% less than what we'd been offered at the other dealerships! Jordan Ogle was very thorough with explaining our paperwork and answered all questions. We have been thrilled with our deal and new-to-us SUV. Thanks again for all your hard work, Jodi, Brandon, and Jordan. Especially since we were there until 11:00pm...3 hours after closing! Paramount Kia has the same great customer service and professionalism that they claim to have in their advertising. More

Lumbar and Scotchguard I would like to voice my experience in this survey.

Our salesman was a nice person but he needs to consider a persons age when he chooses a car for them. A week after purchasing our car we went on a trip to Myrtle Beach. Upon arriving both of our lower backs really hurt. It was then that I realized that there was no Lumbar adjustment in my seat. It would have been nice to have known there wasn't any Lumbar positioning in the seat before we were sold the car. Also after bringing my car in to have it Scotch Guarded, it was only half completed on the dashboard.you can see areas missed. Bob.and Debbie Harrison More

Excellent service and experience with Paramount Kia Thank you Andrew Newhouse for your excellent service at Paramount KIA handling the sale of our new Sportage. I never felt rushed or pressured in any w Thank you Andrew Newhouse for your excellent service at Paramount KIA handling the sale of our new Sportage. I never felt rushed or pressured in any way.... I must say the 2011 was a very good car and I had no problem going with the same model for the new one...... it could only be better right?! Well it is! With the remake for 2017 and some needed improvements I am thoroughly satisfied I made the right decision. With the trip to the Outer Banks and back it rolled over a 1,000 miles and we averaged 31-32 MPG. So I'm happy with that as well. Roger Lane More
