Fantastic new vehicle purchase experience...

I recently made a new vehicle purchase from Coastal Kia and must say that this was unquestionably my best buying experience to date. Having purchased several new vehicles (all GM products) previously, I decided to give Kia a try; definitely glad that I did! All of the folks with whom I interacted were just super... from their courteous assistance to their prompt attention to my specific new vehicle needs. They (Rob Maiers, Michael Mascavage, and Bernie Brust) certainly exceeded my purchase expectations while delivering superior value. I highly recommend considering Coastal Kia if you are in the market for something new.

Friendly dealership.

Always a good experience at this dealership. Have always been greeted warmly and they seem to really care about their customers. Ownership recently changed hands but hopefully service will stay the same. Thank you service department!

Best customer service and finance manager

I knew what car I wanted and I went to Coastal Kia mainly because I have a high regard for Pat Kabala. He happens to be the nicest person on earth. At any rate, I discussed my options on line through the service manager, Steve and then to Haywood, the finance manager. Between the two, I was able to cut a deal and felt really satisfied. Buying cars is my worst nightmare, but this was like a dream. Professional, great warranty, and I love love love my new 2020 Kia.

Great Experience

Tyler was awesome and spent a lot of time explaining the vehicle options. He helped me find the right fit after a bad experience with Lexus.
