Straight forward After filling out an on line Ford specifying the Fusion model and options I desired, I was initially contacted by Brook Norman of Paramount who could After filling out an on line Ford specifying the Fusion model and options I desired, I was initially contacted by Brook Norman of Paramount who could not have been more professional. The deal was bumped up to Michael Connell who's out the door price was more competitive compared to another area dealer for the identical car. Did I still leave a bit of money on the table? Certainly, but that pales in comparison to how much I'm pleased with my new car! Kudos to Benny Yount for making my new car buying experience relatively hassle-free through his "straight forward" associates such as Brook and Michael at Paramount in Valdese. More

Excellent service brings us back! Seven years ago we had the pleasure of meeting Michael and purchasing a new Ford Fusion. Michael made the purchase easy and pleasant. He is always pro Seven years ago we had the pleasure of meeting Michael and purchasing a new Ford Fusion. Michael made the purchase easy and pleasant. He is always professional and always adds a personal touch. We never felt rushed or pressured. When it came time to purchase another vehicle there was no question that we would return to Michael at Paramount Ford. We purchased a new Lariat truck. Again, Michael's professionalim prevailed. He educated my husband and I on every feature of all trucks with extreme patience. (It takes us a while to make decisions.). We are extremely happy again with our purchase, the service and customer care. We also traveled 1 hr and 45 minutes to return to Paramount and Michael. We will be referring as many people as we can to Paramount! More

A Paramount Experience Thank you to my excellent salesman Michael Connell. Michael had the car I had discussed driving pulled up and running with the air conditioning on whe Thank you to my excellent salesman Michael Connell. Michael had the car I had discussed driving pulled up and running with the air conditioning on when I arrived. He also took the time to test drive several other cars with me on a very hot Saturday. He was very knowledgeable about every car I test drove. Negotiating was professional and I was pleased with the bottom line. This was my second experience buying a new vehicle with Michael at Paramount. I would also like to thank Scott McKinney for his time and patience with me during the financial aspect of my buying experience. I greatly appreciated him treating me with respect and answering my financial questions and helping me to accomplish getting my monthly payment in the range that I requested. I had a very pleasant and professional experience at Paramount with Michael and Scott. I would recommend anyone looking for a good vehicle at a good price to go to see Michael Connell and Scott McKinney at Paramount. Thank you for my Paramount experience!! More

Great experience Paramount made car buying less stressful than my previous experiences. I was fortunate enough to have Micheal as a salesman. He was very patient and e Paramount made car buying less stressful than my previous experiences. I was fortunate enough to have Micheal as a salesman. He was very patient and easy to work with. He worked very hard to accommodate me and find me the truck i wanted. Communication was never an issue. I spoke with other dealerships, but they could not beat Paramount's price. The fact that Paramount is a ministry partner with 106.9 the light sealed the deal. Highly recommended and ask for Micheal. More

Great car buying experience I worked with Michael Connell and he was very patient and thorough, explaining all of the features of the new Elantra and he answered all of my questi I worked with Michael Connell and he was very patient and thorough, explaining all of the features of the new Elantra and he answered all of my questions. I was driving to the dealership straight from my job in Winston-Salem, so he arranged for both cars that I wanted to test drive to be brought in from their other dealership so they would be waiting for me when I arrived, which I greatly appreciated. I had a great experience working with Michael and would highly recommend him to others. My only complaint was waiting over an hour on the finance guy, so I could sign my paperwork. The finance guy got hung up with another couple and apparently there was no other person at the dealership that could handle the financing paperwork, so that was a little frustrating having to wait an hour just to sign a few papers. I think there should always be a backup finance person on duty. However, when I finally got in to meet with the finance guy, he was very friendly and efficient and apologized for my long wait. More

Matter of fact Buying I recently bought a new Elantra. This is my second vehicle purchase from Paramount. This time I was pretty certain about what I wanted and how much I I recently bought a new Elantra. This is my second vehicle purchase from Paramount. This time I was pretty certain about what I wanted and how much I wanted t pay for it. I had visited another Hyundai dealership before coming back to Paramount and quickly realized that I didn't want to purchase from them. When I got to Paramount, Michael Connell introduced himself and offered to help me. We walked around the lot an discussed what options I wanted, we took a test drive, and then went inside to discuss my purchase. He promised to make it the easiest purchase possible and he was right. I am very pleased with my new car and I can foresee buying my next car from Paramount as well! More
