From the time I entered the showroom to the time we drove away I enjoyed the excellent service and attention. Tim Whitener was knowledgable and very helpful and even stayed two hours past his schedule to make sure we had a thorough knowledge of the cars features. We purchased a Kia K900 and we absolutely love this automobile. It was also nice that the owner of Paramount made sure he introduced hisself and gave us his undivided attention through out the day as well. More

K900 experience After doing some online research on the K900, I decided to go to Paramount Kia Hickory and see if I would like the K900. Wow, was I impressed. My sa After doing some online research on the K900, I decided to go to Paramount Kia Hickory and see if I would like the K900. Wow, was I impressed. My salesman, Tim Whitener, treated me exceptionally well. He took me out for a test drive and explained all of the features and benefits of the car. There was no pressure at all from Tim for me to get the car. This is my 4th Kia that I have gotten thru Paramount Kia Hickory, so I felt very comfortable using their dealership. Also, I go to Preston, one of the service advisors, whenever I need service work on any of my vehicles. Chris Williams was easy to work with on the finance side, as well. I'll be returning to Paramount Kia of Hickory for my next vehicle. More

Her first Kia experience My daughter and I stopped by Paramont Kia to meet Tim who was going to show us around. He was very nice to me and my daughter and didn't mind answerin My daughter and I stopped by Paramont Kia to meet Tim who was going to show us around. He was very nice to me and my daughter and didn't mind answering all our questions also he was very helpful in deciding weather to buy a used car or a new one. I know what your thinking but with 0% financing the choose became easy when he ran the figures on both used and new. They made both of us feel welcomed and no pressure. I'm glad that my daughter got to see what a pleasant experience should be like for future purchases. She loves her NEW 2015 Sorento. More
