DReam come true I had been dreaming of owning a Porsche for about 7 years and Mali'a Pennington made my dream come true. Ms. Mali'a didn't treat me like a potential c I had been dreaming of owning a Porsche for about 7 years and Mali'a Pennington made my dream come true. Ms. Mali'a didn't treat me like a potential car buyer, she treated me like a person. She made sure all of my questions were answered and worked really hard to assist me. When my car was ready she met me halfway between San Antonio and Waco to make sure I was satisfied with my purchase. I was blessed to have her as my representative and Dallas Lease Cars should me blessed as well. I have already referred friends to her because the customers are always her priority. Good job and above reproach customer service!! More
