My experience with Lugoff Toyota was one of the best car buying experiences I have had. I have purchased multiple new vehicles and the process has never been as simple as it was at Lugoff Toyota. There wa buying experiences I have had. I have purchased multiple new vehicles and the process has never been as simple as it was at Lugoff Toyota. There was very little back and forth. We were able to quickly agree on the price of the vehicle and my trade. They went out of their way to get me the best rate possible and I left the dealership very satisfied and happy with the transaction. Brad, Heather, and Ralph were all very professional and couldn't have handled the sale any better. The vehicle was delivered with all agreed upon terms met. I will definitely visit Lugoff Toyota if I am in the market for another new Toyota or a preowned vehicle. More

Maya AngaIou said, "Ask for what you want and expect to get it." That's what happens at Lugoff Toyota so I just purchased my 5th shiney, new Toyota there. Its also my 3rd Rav4. Great little car! to get it." That's what happens at Lugoff Toyota so I just purchased my 5th shiney, new Toyota there. Its also my 3rd Rav4. Great little car! I'd been thinking about trading when an email from Samer Abrahams, General Sales Manager arrived. Lugoff Toyota was celebrating the President's Award and passing along savings. Ralph Harper assisted me a couple of years ago, so I called him. Ralph takes the time to find out what I need in a vehicle. Both he and Cylde Cuttino asked questions and listened to my needs. Clyde was very helpful in comparing models and paid attention to the details. They were there to provide me with a solution, not just sell a car. No fuss, no muss, no pressure... just good, solid, customer service. Business Manager, Allen Hagan, professionally handled the paperwork and fine print. I was out of there in no time. My 1st purchase at Lugoff Toyota was in the mid-80s. Robbie Hunter was the Parts and Service Director then. Robbie Hunter is the Parts and Service Director now. Many of the service staff know me by name. The stability of the staff at this dealership says a lot about them. This is an excellent dealership - I'll be back. More

I recently purchased a new 2012 Camry at Lugoff Toyota and the sales staff was excellent. Ralph and Alicia were very friendly, not pushy and answered all of my questions. In fact, they did not have the and the sales staff was excellent. Ralph and Alicia were very friendly, not pushy and answered all of my questions. In fact, they did not have the color car I wanted on their lot and I found exactly what I was looking for at another dealership but because they had been so great to work with, I wanted to make the purchase from Lugoff Toyota. When I called to ask if they could get what I wanted, they assured me they could and it was on their lot the next day. Ralph, Alicia and Allen were very professional and helpful and made the purchase process a very pleasant experience. I would highly recommend Lugoff Toyota to anyone looking to purchase a vehicle.

This was by far the best experience while trying to purchase a vehicle i have ever encountered. Chris Maner was super professional yet had a friendly neighbor or old friend character about him. Ver purchase a vehicle i have ever encountered. Chris Maner was super professional yet had a friendly neighbor or old friend character about him. Very patient.. He looked the parts of a sales man but acted that of a good man just trying to help and get a job done. He was extremely polite and attentive. I will never go to another salesman for as long as i can help it. He will be the one i point all my firends and family to. The way he handled our business tells me a lot about who he is outside of work and its nice to know we have someone out there like him who doesnt take on the typical stereo type Sales Man persona. My spouse and I went through some terrible times during which our credit was pretty much destroyed.. we have been struggling to get it back up to where it once was. My husbands credit was Superior at one point but life happened. Most Dealers we encountered after the credit scores dropped would brush us off and make us feel we were unworthy of a safe and affordable vehicle. Just plain rude and SUPER SUPER pushy. Over the top PUSHY. Originally Chris Maner was trying to get me in a RAV4... my first pick -only be.c i thought it would be my best bet. Chris tried but was unable to do it. He did however, come up with a vehicle that i fell in love with. A 07 Toyota Sienna I have 3 children. 8 Nephews... I love taking them all to the parks and out to movies and what not.... I loved the space. I need a SAFE vehicle. I reliable vehicle. The color (Sky blue) is my all time favorite color. Although it is used - it had only one owner. The ONLY down fall was the mileage but I know Toyotas are build to last. My first vehicle was an 86 toyota corolla passed to me by my mother. So it really isnt that big of a deal. 67k is fine w me. The previous owner seemed to have taken very well care of the vehicle and the fact she/he brought it back to a Toyota Dealer tells me she may have traded it in for Another Toyota vehicle - which in my eyes is always a good sign. My favorite about the vehicle... other than saftey features - it has a mirror that drops down and i can see everything so clearly in the back seats. This is awesome for when the older two are pulling eachothers hair or more importanly - i can keep an eye on the little one and feel at ease she is okay back there. The trunk space alone can fit all of our belongings when we travel to NC and NJ to visit family. I also dealt with Allen - he tried desperatly to get us at a payment we could afford. Although I do not trust most dealers when they say " I have done all i could" - i actually believed Allen when he said it. He was professional and friendly. Trevor was extrememly professional and laughed at my jokes - funny or not - he gets huge kudos for that alone. He made the closing simple and fast. Ralph - good Ralph was not in our dealings w the purchase but he kept my 20 mth old in awe and occupied. She rarely goes to strangers but he had such a sweet touch to him she couldnt help herself. He was so kind and kept putting me at ease when he saw i was stressing be/c my other 2 (9 and 8) were going a little nutto - or when Ri my 20 mth old kept walking in the finance office to be nosy..lol He could have gone off and did something else to occupy his time but he didnt... he helped me, us. and my kiddos are everything to me so when your sweet to my kiddos and remind me they are kids and they do what they do - and it is okay... it kind of leaves a mark. All in all - Lugoff Toyota was amazing. They did what they could do and although our payment was much higher than inticipated - that was our fault not theirs and in the long run - w the gas money we save - the drop in insurance cost we save..... it'll be okay. And the Saftey of this vehicle is better than any other car i have owned. Thank you Toyota in Lugoff - I hope this review gets you something.. you guys deserve an award. :o) Hopefully once we get all our finances in order in the future - my husband will be back for that Toyota Tacoma! lOL.. God Bless!!!!! I will bring in Cupcakes as promised!! Sincerely - Holly Josh Tyler Lexie and Riley Stoyo More
