Excellent / Informative Experience with Everyone Involved. Very pleasant experience. Buying or leasing is always a struggle but this team operated very smoothly. My wife and I have purchased several cars over Very pleasant experience. Buying or leasing is always a struggle but this team operated very smoothly. My wife and I have purchased several cars over the years but had never considered leasing. We were guided in this direction by Mr. Fred Fortson through thoughtful and considerate questions regarding our wants and needs related to acquiring a superior car tailored to our lifestyle. He was very generous with his time and patience. Mr. Fortson made sure that we met with the people who were the experts in the field of discussion at the moment. Philip Foster demonstrated excellent knowledge about the functionality of the car and it's electronics. He was very helpful in getting us a basic understanding such that we felt comfortable driving away from the dealership. The financial person, Leigh Ann Morgan, made the actual paperwork process quick and less intimidating. My wife and I felt very comfortable about driving from the dealership home knowing that we had a team to call on at ANY time we felt in need of a helping hand. Would recommend them to all. More

Fantastic People, Wonderful Experience! I leased my new RX from the fantastic team at Lexus of Chattanooga. I say team, because they ALL were a part of my buying process and EVERYONE made m I leased my new RX from the fantastic team at Lexus of Chattanooga. I say team, because they ALL were a part of my buying process and EVERYONE made me feel welcomed and appreciated. As a woman, it is often difficult to purchase a vehicle; you are made to feel as if you should have a man with you, you are showed the cup-holders and vanity mirrors instead of the performance features, etc. These folks; Ralph Paty who greeted me with the door opened, got me coffee and showed me my first lexus on my first trip in, Fred Fortson who explained my lease vs purchase options, Reggie Elder who sat with me and discussed the benefits of the RX vs the Mercedes, Infinity, Audi and BMW counterparts when I came in for a third time, and Larry Holder who brought me the final vehicle I wanted to drive to my office! These guys truly are a team and are more concerned with customer relationships than just making the sale. When I decided on the RX I finally purchased, Leighann Morgan the Finance Manager was AMAZING. She was able to secure the right lease option for me as well as provide me with no out of pocket expenses for the entire lease.... I'm sold on my new RX, I'm sold on Lexus of Chattanooga! More

If you have to work a deal, this is the place! My advisor Fred Fortson earned a 5 Star because he was approachable, professional, patient & pleasant!

I especially liked that I only had to deal with him avoiding those distractions. I'm so surprised these days that folks don't know their products & have the knowledge needed w/out having to ask somebody else. Also meaningful was I left satisfied w/ my deal. That almost never happens. Classy professional in a Class A Dealership. More
