I continued to research and called dealerships within a two hundred mile radius of Gainesville (where I currently live) to compare prices and promotions. Gettel Hyundai in Bradenton had the best deal by far for a brand new 2015 Veloster, but only if I bought the car by that Monday (It was Saturday). For a number of reasons, I could only buy the car on Saturday on a very tight schedule as I had to drive to Bradenton, buy the car, drive back to Gainesville and get to work by 5pm. Because I thought it was going to be too tight of a time crunch, I thought I would stop by Parks Hyundai of Gainesville to see if they would match the deal (I had a preliminary buyer's order in an email from Gettel). I gave Parks the information, and asked if they could match it. I made it clear that if they could not, that I would need to leave immediately as I needed ample time to drive to Bradenton. The sales associate assured me that they could match it, so I proceeded to sit down and wait, thinking I was saving myself four hours of driving. Ultimately, after sitting there for thirty minutes while a bunch of men angrily chatted about the deal and made me feel like a nuisance, they told me that likelier than not, the gentleman I spoke to from Gettel was lying and including rebates that I was not eligible for. The sales associate proceeded to try to convince me to stay and buy the car there for nearly $2000 more than Gettel was offering. The associate tried to make the point that it was not worth a four hour drive, only to find out I was being lied to. He kept pushing despite my refusal. I left as soon as possible and drove to Bradenton where I bought my new Veloster for the price that Gettel said they would give me in the first place. I had an incredible experience there. They got me in and out as quickly as they could. Parks Hyundai lost my business that day and I will not be recommending them. More

Impressed with the features and drive of the car, we returned a few days later to start negotiating pricing. More

From my initial contact via e-mail to completing the financial paperwork there was a partnership. No high pressure, hidden details, switcharoos or anything else perceived about car dealers. I'll be getting my next car from Parks in three years. More

Good Dealership - Dishonest Employee It's unfortunate that Parks dealership allows dishonest employees like Ramone to work there. While the prices are reasonable, it was Ramone's dishones It's unfortunate that Parks dealership allows dishonest employees like Ramone to work there. While the prices are reasonable, it was Ramone's dishonesty, attempts to push us towards a more expensive car that we didn't want, and general high pressure tactics that were a turn off. They were completely the wrong way to sell us a car, particularly now that we can easily find the same vehicle for the same or a better price by searching the internet. We were ready to buy the car we were discussing, possibly even for a higher price, but this employees poor judgement made us look elsewhere. More
