They are a fraud company, add in bogus fees and will not bring down the price of the car. Even on demo cars. Would never do business with them again and would like to see them go out of business. They also bring down the price of the car. Even on demo cars. Would never do business with them again and would like to see them go out of business. They also lie about what cars they have in stock just to have you go to their lot. More

We have always been high end vehicle owners... Lexus..BMW.. ect, but we really want to do our part for the environment, and reduce our carbon foot print and not depend solely on gas! My husband an Lexus..BMW.. ect, but we really want to do our part for the environment, and reduce our carbon foot print and not depend solely on gas! My husband and I did our research before we purchased our new vehicle. Not only did we research the vehicle, but the dealer in which we would also make the purchase from as well as have the vehicle serviced. I will admit I was a little nervous visiting our local dealer (Shore Toyota) after reading some of the reviews. However I figured I would give them the first shot since they were our local dealer, and if something were to go wrong they are right around the corner. I visited Toyota.com and "built" my own 2010 Prius with the goodies I must have. It then sent my Prius order to several surrounding dealers in addition to Shore Toyota. I must say Shore Toyota did get back to me faster than I had expected. I told the sales consultant I would like to come in the next afternoon for a test drive. They also informed me the Prius I wanted was there, however if it were to sell they would be able to get me "my" vehicle. I was a little weary at first but my husband told me what do I have to loose? When we arrived the vehicle had in fact been sold, however they had one there in the color I hate more than anything (Gold) I took the vehicle for a ride, which to my surprise it had a lot of pep and I was truly turning heads I felt like! I placed my order, and waited!......I receive a call about a week later. My Prius was there. I was so excited, and could not wait to get my new car!! I'm so happy I listened to myself and gave you guys "Shore Toyota" a chance. My overall experience went better than I hoped and the Prius has really surpassed my expectations..The customer care manger let me know I would be receiving a survey, and if I could rate them how I felt they did. All I can say is keep up the good work, and I look forward to using the service dept. Thanks Again, Ashley & Kyle Madden More

After doing research, I contacted Danielle, who offered me a price quote for a new Highlander, plus the CARS program. When I arrived that evening, manager John refused to provide the deal emailed to me in me a price quote for a new Highlander, plus the CARS program. When I arrived that evening, manager John refused to provide the deal emailed to me in conjunction with the program, and offered me only $1000 for my trade. Although I was not pleased, I did understand considering it was 7/30/09, when there was uncertainty on the suspension of the program. My issue was the next day, when I again spoke to Danielle and another manager Vicki. They stated that if I came in that afternoon, Shore Toyota would provide the car at he stated price and the CARS program, which had been confirmed to be continuing. I really could not believe it when after I arrived, the salesman Olti AGAIN said they could not do the deal as promised. They tried to push the same deal that I refused the night before, and I received more of the same story from another manager. Just a terrible place in how they do business, and a complete waste of my time. Basically twice they made the same promises, then failed to deliver after they get you in there. From the other reviews, this seems to be a common occurrence. I left there and went straight to Cherry Hill Toyota, where I bought the same car for a better price, plus the CARS program. CH was a real pleasure to deal with, and just the complete opposite of the awful experience with Shore Toyota. More

Randy our salesman was about 23 years old and arrogant. He had no idea about the models or what it takes to finance a new car. Him and his sales manager tried to sell me a 2010 prius with msrp of $23,000 f He had no idea about the models or what it takes to finance a new car. Him and his sales manager tried to sell me a 2010 prius with msrp of $23,000 for $34,000!! they added on every possible extra, when i asked not to pay those i was told i had to or i couldnt have the car. After a hour it was clear they were not going to let the car go for less than $29,500... so i tried to walk out. "Someone" parked a service vehicle behind mine and it took nearly 20 minutes of me yelling to have the truck moved so i could leave. I had to drive an hour to the next toyota dealership and wound up buying a similar car for about $25,000 after financing. Shore toyota had rude and condescending salesmen and managers. Im never returning More

I corresponded through email with an internet lady at the dealership. I told her i would be in and wanted to drive the Prius. I was told thee 2010 was selling for sticker. When I arrived at the dealership dealership. I told her i would be in and wanted to drive the Prius. I was told thee 2010 was selling for sticker. When I arrived at the dealership I was met by Randy. I told him I corresponded through email with Danielle. He went and got a copy of an email i sent her. He came with my wife and I on the test drive. He showed us the whole dealership (repair shop, supplies, etc.) I told him I did my research and just wanted a price on the Prius 2. About an hour later we sat down. I told him I was also looking at the Honda Insight. He put Honda down most of the time and didn't answer my question about the Prius 1 that is coming out soon. He said the prices were going up and the color(red) that my wife liked was hard to get. After alot of xx he went to talk to his supervisor i believe. They came back and showed my wife and i the price of the car. They had the sticker of $22249, PLUS 2 misc. fees of $1000 PLUS a markup of $3500 more on the car. The price was almost $28000 without tax and tags. I was shocked. I told them that the girl I corresponed with told me sticker. They questioned who that was. I asked if he thought we were fools and got up and walked out. Later that day Danielle called and asked when i was coming in. I told her that I was there that morning and talked her ear off about my experience. She did apologize and said she would have the manager call me. I said don't bother, what is he going to do. He must know this is how they do business. More

Dealer will not post prices of used cars on Vehicle. They will play the "Hard Sell" game with you and pressure you to make a sale without presenting A Kelly BB Value or Car Fax Report on the Vehicle. I hav will play the "Hard Sell" game with you and pressure you to make a sale without presenting A Kelly BB Value or Car Fax Report on the Vehicle. I have made a Used car purchase with these people, But you maust be prepared with a KBB reort on your tase in and on the vehicle your intreresed in, otherwise these people will take you for a ride you will regret. Only after getting up to leave did they meet a"fair" offer" on the new car with trade in. Summary: Its a lousy way to play the price game with potential customers, Put your price up front and then negociate FAIRLY! More
