Used hatchbacks for sale near Southport, NC

I recently purchased a Mazda CX‑5, and I wanted to take a moment to formally recognize the outstanding service provided by Sales Consultant, Madeline Palmieri. Having spent much of my career in both software Operations and Sales, I’ve worked with a wide range of sales professionals. Madeline stands out. From the moment she was introduced as my consultant, she demonstrated a warm, confident, and customer‑focused approach. When I expressed interest in the CX‑5, she walked me through the vehicle and highlighted key features without overwhelming the conversation or making assumptions about what mattered most to me. It was an effective and thoughtful way to begin the interaction. In contrast to the common opener—“What questions do you have?”—which often feels transactional or even dismissive, Madeline guided the conversation with genuine curiosity. She asked the question most salespeople overlook: “What’s important to you in your next vehicle?” That simple but essential step allowed her to tailor the discussion to my needs rather than defaulting to a generic feature rundown. Whether this approach comes from formal training (Sandler perhaps?) or natural instinct, it reflects a consultative sales style that is both rare and refreshing. Throughout the process, she handled my questions and requests regarding features, purchasing options, and pricing with efficiency and professionalism. At no point did she keep me waiting unnecessarily or make me feel like an inconvenience. Her consistency and attention to the customer experience were evident at every stage. You are fortunate to have such a skilled and polished salesperson on your team. Madeline represented Stevenson Hendrick Mazda exceptionally well, and she made the buying experience a positive one.

It’s a sport car! Can get a honda or toyota with the same price but basic features. Totally worth the value. This is good for personal and family use.

Awesome team ,knowledge great Personality They are will to help find the car that fits your needs and the finance was easy. They have plenty of cars

Great car for the cost Only problem was that it is easy to pinch a finger with the door handles while opening and closing the doors

Emmily in sales & Santos in finance at Stevenson Hendrick Honda in Wilmington were both phenomenal to work with!! Honda is lucky to have them!! They made my car buying experience so easy and worry free! I drove away with a great deal on my trade-in and on my new 2026 Honda Pilot!! 10/10 recommend!!! 🙌 Thank you both so much, Wendy Duncan!

Had a great experience with Stevenson Mazda and Levi here at the dealership. He worked with me and was very patient.

The car is great looking, fast and comfortable. Recommend to anyone especially as an everyday driver. It turns heads wherever I go. Also get everyone wanting to look at.

Rob was great and easy to work with! I have purchased many vehicles out of state and this was one of the easiest processes.

This is by far my favorite Prius. This my fourth Prius as well. Best looking and handling. I love the color . The interior and all the latest technology is great.

Stevenson-Hendrick Honda Wilmington I have never experienced a dealership that made buying a car so pleasant. From the sales manager, Henry on down to our salesman, Nick Smith, we were treated like family. Love the experience we had there. Thanks to all employees we dealt with.

Maintenance on vehicle was great but when the dealership cleaned the vehicle, the top was missed. The dealership always seems to try to sell something extra like a new tire or extra service.

Love my KIA SOUL; wish it was Brand New. At my age It would be my best performance car in life.. I will never drive nothin else.. It is perfect in most all ways as for the performance concern.. I am 73.. " GO Granny GO. That is how I feel while driving my KIA.." Only wish it was a Brand New one Black , beigh interia..

Nick Smith is one of the best salesmen we have ever dealt with. He is personable, knowledgeable, competent, friendly and patient. He never pushed us into buying but instead very competently helped us decide what we wanted. He didn’t try to make us buy an upgrade on things we did not want or need. We honestly felt like we were dealing with either family or a friend. He has kept in touch with us after our purchase and makes his self available to answer any of our questions. My wife and I highly recommend him. We are glad we made the trip from Little River SC for this purchase.

Had mine since new 88,000 fun miles on it. superby reliable. Fantastic handling, comfort for long long long drive 6 hours, and great MPG...super quick, it really does everything excellently. Out of 17+ VWs since 1987 this is the best one yet...fun personified, tracks at speed perfectly, solid grip in all weather conditions. Solid, tight, really well done car. Interior layout is ergonomic excellence. of course 6 speed manual, it's best, control and in connection with the drive.

Fellow Buckeye Nick Smith made the buying experience as seamless as possible and was very helpful at every step. I highly recommend the Stevenson Hedrick group.

I own a Kia Soul 2016 has currently 62,000 miles ,purchased it with 23,000 miles on it.So far its been a fantastic car. No maintenance issues. Keep up with all the recommended maintenance and I'm sure your have a long time vehicle.

The 2nd car I purchased from John. Good honest salesman. Did everything I asked of him and the owner gave me a very fair trade on my old Kia. Will buy from them again.

Nick Smith was excellent to work with. He was responsive, answered all of my questions thoroughly, and ensured the vehicle was ready right on time. I’d definitely recommend him to anyone in the market for a vehicle

This is a great car! I love the features, esp the sport function, which gives you a boost if you need to jump on it. Obviously, some people don't use this feature or don't know what it does. When getting on the freeway, I always use it, then simply turn it off when necessary. I usually get about 34-36 mpg on long trips and around town about 28-32mpg. The one and only complaint I have is that it is too low to the ground and sometimes it's very difficult to get in. If I move the driver's seat back, it makes it easier. I am the original owner of a 2017. The other features i like are the backup camera, electric side view mirrors, speak feature to make calls, the interior is gorgeous, the hatchback. I just really love this car. I have never had a problem with it. If you're looking for a reliable car, this is it!

I have had my 2023 KIA Soul Sport since March of 2023. I love it, because it's comfortable, fast (little red button) especially in Michigan. I have had it up to 111mph without even trying, as i was trying to get out of a situation in Michigan. I use a wheelchair, and so the space is good for that and family, and groceries. It is awesome on gas too. I was surprised at how well it handled in the snow. No worries there. This is my third KIA, and as long as the warranty stays the same or gets better, i will still purchase them.

Beautiful styled Car inside and out! Great 4 cylinder gas milage with the performance of a true sports car! This makes it an Amazing value car to me!

Let me just first start by saying that sometimes God himself will connect you to the right people. Yesterday was nothing short of a blessing! The staff at this dealership went above and beyond for me yesterday! NOTHING BUT GOD. The atmosphere was so calm and laid back. They are more than just nice! Yes, I drove from Gwinnett to pick up my car and it was worth it! I strongly suggest going here for your next vehicle! THANK YOU ALEX and CHAD!

The car looks great. We have enjoyed the feel of the car on the road and the ease of use of the controls and rear view camera.

Good service very helpful and even delivered the auto to my house. Offer very good prices

No games Aaron my sales rep was awesome great dealer to work with very satisfied highly recommend very friendly staff and courteous and if your looking for a car this is the place to go

The seats are comfortable. It is a very reliable car. I had a 2012 and I got this one during the pandemic - before everyone went crazy overpaying! I was surprised and happy to discover that mine has a heated steering wheel - there was only 1 available that had 2400 miles (it was used as a loaner). The 1 complaint I have is that it is VERY noisy and you hear the traffic (I drive on a major tollway a lot). I am seriously thinking of getting another car because of this. Apple play is glitchy, but would not do without it. So overall I would recommend it.

I have owned a Kia Forte for 7 years now. My husband and I love it! We do regular oil changes and maintenance, and keep the car in the garage. At almost 60,000 miles it needed new tires and brakes, but that's not a big surprise. We LOVE the performance of this car -- the turbo function makes it fun to drive and great for passing. It's compact enough that we can park anywhere. And the hatchback is surprisingly large! We ended up selling our Toyota Camry and keeping our Kia because the Kia is a workhorse that hauled furniture and boxes for my husband's business. Way more room than the Camry when we needed to haul things or take our electric bikes on an adventure.

We bought this car when we lived on Vancouver Island. Great car in traffic and getting in and out of parking spots. We loved every moment we have owned it!

Service was great and staff answered all my questions.Overall experience was everything I was hoping for. First time customer.
