Pretty disappointed with the car buying experience here. Let me start by saying that if you don't already know this, Hyundai and Kia were notorious for so long about the sleezy and painful process of buying Let me start by saying that if you don't already know this, Hyundai and Kia were notorious for so long about the sleezy and painful process of buying a car through their dealerships. But I've read a lot in the past few years that they are trying to clean that up. I bought a Kia Telluride in 2021 from a different dealership and was overall satisfied with the experience. My experience with Circle Hyundai was disappointing on a few different fronts. My salesman was Craig, and I don't really have any gripes about him - he is doing a job. He was nice and helpful enough. First, they are charging 4k over MSRP for Palisades. They will tell you it's only 2k, but they are adding running boards to all of them and charging another 2k which is preposterous. Second, the best rate of financing they offer is 6 percent on a new car. Now, they will tell you that they just follow Hyundai Financing and that they don't make the rules... fair enough as it relates to a dealership gripe. But their fees are ridiculous. Hundreds of dollars in "doc fees" and 600 registration fee. At the end of the day, they let me walk over a difference of 30/month, which they easily could have made up by waiving their extra 2k over msrp. This was after I agreed to put more money down than I wanted, and were going to basically let them rob me on my trade. Didn't even let the manager or owner know and wasted 3.5 hours of my time. Yes, wasted, because I told the salesman the rate and monthly payment I wanted over 72 months, and he said "don't worry they will make it happen" -- to only be told by the "finance" guy that "if I knew that was your number I would have never tried to run the deal". My advice to people reading this - find a dealer that values customer loyalty and isn't taking advantage of a fluid market by price-gouging. There are plenty out there, you just have to look a little outside the area. I would not return to this dealership nor would I recommend it to anyone. More

When I was greeted by Matt Lonano of Circle Hyundai in shrewsbury NJ i knew that my sea I spent the last week bouncing from dealership to dealership. When I was greeted by Matt Lonano of Circle Hyundai in shrewsbury NJ i knew that my search was finally over. He was a straight to the point, what can i do for you kind of guy.
