I had an excellent experience working with Robert Schmits
I had an excellent experience working with Robert Schmits at Mazda Mall of Georgia! From the moment we started looking for the perfect car, Robert was patient, knowledgeable, and attentive to all of our needs. He helped us find the right vehicle that suited both our budget and lifestyle. Even after the purchase, Robert continued to go above and beyond, assisting us with a few minor issues we encountered in the days following our purchase. His professionalism and dedication to customer satisfaction made a huge difference in our overall experience. I highly recommend Robert to anyone looking for a smooth and supportive car-buying process!
Bought the vehicle new in October of 2023.
Bought the vehicle new in October of 2023. Now it’s March of 2025. Have yet to have an issue🤞though have heard of common problems many have had. I’ve put roughly 20 k miles on the car in a year and a half (mostly interstate driving). Technology package is lovely and the vehicle has an overall stylish feel. It’s important to keep in mind, though, that you’re buying a 20k dollar vehicle from 2023. It’s plastics galore in there, so, though stylish, the material quality isn’t the best. If you’re someone who takes care of your things, you shouldn’t have an issue! Use the maintenance schedule found in the Owner’s manual and this vehicle should get you where you’re going for a reasonable amount of years. That being said, if you’re trying to decide between and LX[S] and GT (not including GT-Line), choose the GT. Though you’re paying a little extra, you get a standard transmission with real gears (the car has more power than you’d think too) rather than the CVT found in the LX[S] (and GT-line). CVT tech has greatly improved within recent years, but they’re still known to be problematic at times. All in all, this generation of Kia seems to be more reliable than most previous gens. Definitely a real deal competitor with the carolla/civic and worth the consideration!

Wonderful Experience
Wonderful Experience" - Winneth This was my first purchase from CCT. My sales rep, Bernard Faulk, was fantastic to work with. He was very pleasant and very patient. I was satisfied with my purchase and the entire transaction with CCT went very smoothly. The manager and financial rep were also very pleasant. Great atmosphere in this dealership and they make you feel very welcome. Thank you Bernard for helping me choose a beautiful car, I know I will enjoy for years to come.
Bought a 2023 forte gt-line for my daughter.
Bought a 2023 forte gt-line for my daughter. We have had the car for 13months and have driven about 12,000 miles. I honestly cannot believe the 1star reviews, nor should you. I was a loyal Honda fanboy for over 30 years before I bought this Kia. I bought a totally loaded Forte non turbo for a hair under 25k with a crazy good warranty. Why not? I figured. 13 months and 12k miles later it rides better, has more power and is quieter than the day we bought it! Zero issues with anything. No squeaks, rattles or interior flaws. Sadly no tire wear. I cannot wait to replace the Kuhmos it came with. It handles great and is fun to drive. My wife calls it “a peppy little thing”. And she drives a CX-5 turbo or my 5.7 liter ram. Over 40 mpg on highway and mid 30s driving around town. This is a fine car. Not a cheap version Hyundai. Much nicer IMHO than the Hyundai. For those knocking the resale… run the numbers and try to buy one as cheap as you say you sold yours for. The Harmon Kardon stereo sounds awesome! This is one of my favorite purchases because its value continues to surprise me. And they give a $500.00 military discount. Don’t buy based on my opinions go test drive one! Test drives are free. Go to carvanna or get on car gurus and see how cheap you can buy one a year or two old used one for.

Reggie was incredible.
Reggie was incredible. As a first time buyer, I was very nervous and overwhelmed and he was so patient and thorough. He wasn?t just trying to sell, he really wanted to help me find what worked best for our family. 10/10!!!
I purchased my GT turbo - automatic in 2021 as 2022 model
I purchased my GT turbo - automatic in 2021 as 2022 model and my only regret was that didn’t wait for the cooling seats package. Great looking vehicle with above average performance and great fuel efficiency. It’s one of the best affordable sports sedans in the market and one of the few where you can actually fit a 6’ adult in the backseat. I’m looking to add another with my desired package soon.

DriveTime Stone Mountain, Ga
I went into the dealership with very high hopes but very low expectations because I have some severe credit issues. Joseph Franklin greeted me at the door. He was very friendly and gave off a great vibe. During my appointment, people were pulling at him left and right from constant phone calls to in house interruptions. He handled every distraction with extreme patience and professionalism. Even though I couldn't get into the car that I had chosen online, Joseph showed me several options and made the process so pleasant. I walked out of there with a car that I really like and that suits my needs. Joseph is an awesome sales person and a definite asset to DriveTime.

A Mostly Positive Review
Everything went fairly smooth. Processing the purchase took a little over an hour. At other dealerships it can take 3-4 hours. I forgot to inquire about the 2nd key until ready to drive away and was informed it only came with ONE key..............ask this question before you buy as this particular key costs around $300. Overall a fair price for what is a great car! Would have been better with 2 keys like I was assuming. If it came with 2 keys I would give them 5*'s!

My shopping experience @CarMax Roswell, Ga
My overall experience with this dealership and sales associates were very pleasant and sufficient. I was able to take my time in selecting my vehicle and was given accurate pricing info as I had already did my research for the car I was interested in. I wasn't pushed into a car I didn't want or desire after I decline to purchase the original car I went to the dealership to test drive. The associate took the time to look through the online lists of cars within a 150 miles of his dealership and after locating a car that I liked he was able to have the car transferred in from another state free of charge. I was called when the car arrived and made an appointment to check it out and I made a purchase.

Cobb County Toyota is the best buying experience!
Cobb County Toyota is the best buying experience! Purchased a new 2024 Rav4 Hybrid XLE with XLE conveience package for thousands below MSRP. The low advertised prices DO NOT have any markups or other nonsense fees. Advertised price plus tax, title and state fees is how they roll. A very transparent honest dealership. Sales staff were very relaxed and there was no pressure. I will only buy cars here in the future.

Great Customer Service and Assistance
The salesman (Jerrel) was great to work with because he helped me while he was there Orr if he was off that day. He got me a car from another store then found out there were problems and found me a car around the same price range that was newer and less miles. Thanks for everything!

I recently purchased a 2025 Kia Carnival Hybrid from Ed
I recently purchased a 2025 Kia Carnival Hybrid from Ed Voyles Kia in Smyrna, GA, and I cannot say enough about the fantastic experience I had working with Isaac DaSilva. From start to finish, Isaac went above and beyond to ensure I was completely satisfied. Isaac’s extensive knowledge about the vehicle was impressive. He answered all of my questions with confidence and clarity, making the decision process so much easier. During the test drive, he was attentive and thorough, helping me fully understand the features and benefits of the Carnival Hybrid. The negotiation process, which is often stressful, was anything but. Isaac was patient, courteous, and truly focused on finding the best deal for our family. He treated us with respect and professionalism throughout, making the entire process smooth and enjoyable. As a former Honda customer, I wasn’t sure what to expect, but Isaac’s exceptional service has made me a Kia fan. Thanks to his efforts, not only did I leave with the perfect vehicle for my family, but I also left with a sense of loyalty to this dealership. I will certainly be recommending Isaac and Ed Voyles to friends and family, and I look forward to considering Kia for future purchases. Thank you, Isaac, for setting a new standard for excellent customer service! Henry Ventura
