I’ve purchased roughly ten new or used vehicles from dealerships over my lifetime, and you never really know what you’re going to get when you reach out. Sometimes you’re treated like a valued customer, dealerships over my lifetime, and you never really know what you’re going to get when you reach out. Sometimes you’re treated like a valued customer, and sometimes, not so much. When I started looking nationwide for a Kia EV6 for my family, I had a pretty clear idea of what I wanted. My last vehicle was purchased in 2019, and I thought with today's public reviews, reputation rankings, and pricing aggregation sites, most dealers would be hesitant to use the sketchy tactics I used to encounter. Silly me - I was honestly surprised how many of them are still playing games with serious customers who are ready to buy. That’s why I’m genuinely happy to write a stellar review for Executive Kia. The Kia corporate site showed Executive Kia had a CPO EV6 in the trim level and feature set I wanted. Their website made it easy to do my homework: the Carfax was readily accessible, they had a no-haggle price listed, and everything looked straightforward. I live about 150 miles from the dealership, so I couldn’t just drop in and see the car before deciding. But between the Kia CPO warranty and the fact that I was ready to move quickly if the price was truly the price, I reached out. The sales manager (Mike) and my salesperson (Mo) got back to me almost immediately and provided all the details I needed - in writing - so I could make an informed decision. From start to finish, the process was smooth and transparent: no funny business, no unexpected fees, and the final interest rate they secured for me was even better than their initial estimate. My son and I actually took an Amtrak to pick up the car. Mo and Steve in finance welcomed us, treated us with kindness and integrity, and nobody tried to hard-sell us on a bunch of add-ons. (I did opt for the gap insurance - yes Steve, good call.) We were in and out in about 90 minutes, and even that was only because we showed up 30 minutes early for our appointment. In 30+ years of buying cars, this was one of the best buying experiences I’ve had. I expected the car to be a dream (it is!), but I didn’t expect the buying experience to be one as well. I wasn’t compensated in any way for this review. I just believe in giving kudos where they’re deserved. A+ all around. Thanks again, Executive Kia - especially Mo and Steve. More

He was friendly, patient with us and he answered all our questions. Mike continuously checked in on us just to make sure we were being well taken care of. Once we decided on the car and trim level, we met with Jorge, who was so calming. He was accommodating, so patient, and informed. They all stayed much past their scheduled closing time to make sure everything was all set and we were good to go. Never once complaining or making us feel rushed. We really had such a great experience because of Mike, John and Jorge. More

The price of the vehicle showed a $2000 rebate, when the time came to sign the deal they told me I couldn’t combine both. No where on the website did it say it was one or the other and that you could not combine the two. That was very frustrating and false advertising. More
