I had a very pleasant and easy experience with “Murphy”. He held a super sought after 2027 Telluride in matte panthera for me after having the same car sold out from under me at another Kia dealership. The whole process was smooth and didn’t take all day, which for me is huge. Upon delivery he was very informative about the features and went over the major things in detail. Thanks for your help Murphy. 10/10 recommend this dealership and this sales guy!

Joel “Gonzo” was fantastic to work with. My husband I throughly enjoyed his personality, professionalism and knowledge. There was zero pressure which is rare to find in a salesman and especially on a sales lot. Not only was Gonzo fantastic to work with so was everyone we met. A special shout out to our Finance person, T.K. He made our transaction very comfortable and (crazy to say)very enjoyable. Thank you, Gonzo!! And Kia team! You all rock!

Joel was fantastic. He dotted all the i's and crossed all the t's for us! We needed patience and knowledge and got it all. Most importantly the dealership gave us time and did not push, so we were very comfortable with our decision. Thank you Gonzo! Thank you KIA

I have known Joel for many years as a personal friend and in business. I know he’s the best in the car sales business. So when our friends Doug and Cindy were looking at trading their 2017 Kia Soul for a newer Kia I brought them to Joel to take care of them. Joel worked out the deal for them very smoothly for a new 2026 Kia Sorento LX. If you’re looking for a new or used Kia go and see Joel he will take good care of you.
