Go see Cary if you want a friendly, no-nonsense

Go see Cary if you want a friendly, no-nonsense experience. I was nervous to lease a car for first time in years, but she walked me through the process- patiently and efficiently helping me select a car. Was easy to make a great deal and I was never pressured with upsells. She went above and beyond at every turn. Entire dealership had a neighborhood feel- very friendly folks at Manahawkin Kia. I'll be a customer for life after shopping there.

I was nervous going into the dealership as this was my first time going it alone. I was greeted by Anthony who reviewed with me my needs and wants in my next Kia. I was renewing a lease for a newer model Sportage. Anthony patiently reviewed all the bells and whistles in a 2025 model. I was pleasantly surprised that the negotiations went very well. He gave a little, I gave a little and we both won in the end. Anthony is the best salesman I or my husband have ever had. He is certainly going to be my recommendation to family and friends.

Cary Gardner along with Darrin Markoski and I believe he was a sales Manager, whose name I can’t recall, even though I researched the employees online and did not see a picture of him, provided a seamless, efficient and quick transaction process for my purchase of a 24 Kia Telluride SX-Line compared to the process at other non Kia dealerships. I believe a decent price was achieved when I take into account my trade in although I think I should have gotten a little bit off the MSRP. Total time spent on this transaction, they get an A grade!
