Quick, accurate and effecient The salesman, W. Thom was informative and took the time to explain the various electronic gagedtry that we were not use to. Greg the new car manager The salesman, W. Thom was informative and took the time to explain the various electronic gagedtry that we were not use to. Greg the new car manager took the time to introduce himself. He took an interest in our search for a new Kia Soul. The General Manager also spoke with us and reinforced the methods that would be used by the Darrow dealership. This WAS a pleasant experience. No fads or fancy "up" sale methods. As very senior citizens we were made comfortable in what could have been a nerve racking merry-go-round! Thanks for your time and consideration in assisting us in our purchase! More

Definitely Recommend KIA of Waukesha I worked with Wally Thom and he was awesome! He was the ONLY salesman that explained the features of the vehicle I was interested in. At other deale I worked with Wally Thom and he was awesome! He was the ONLY salesman that explained the features of the vehicle I was interested in. At other dealerships the salespeople were more (only) interested in my budget & what I was currently driving, etc. Some were overly aggressive and I immediately knew I didn't want to buy a car from them. Wally didn't pry or try to coax details out of me so he could use my responses in an attempt to sell me a car that would "perfectly meet all my needs" as one person put it. There's an emotional component to any 'big purchase' process and I felt completely comfortable throughout the various stages and I was there a long time, on multiple days. Before going in though, I did my research (which is key) and so I was ready to discuss some preliminary numbers. Wally was super respectful as he explained the cost breakdown and available incentives. I went in by myself and never once regreted not having backup. Greg Wargo also assisted me in getting the best deal for my specific needs & situation. I got a great deal on the car I really wanted and I didn't have to settle. The best part was that there was zero manipulation and no game playing during the price negotiation. Its worth noting that I'm a gal with a good b.s. detector. I know I put Greg & Wally to work 😊 and they in turn, crafted a package to work for me. I will definitely be referring others to them for a similar, positive experience. Sincerely, M. More
