Hello Critical

I've dealt with 2 of the 4 KIA dealers in the area... Here is what I think...
BTW your experience may varies

Bank Street KIA.
I live blocks away from this place and been snooping around it for months, along with the Mazda dealer (i.e. I was looking a the 5 as well). They do like to make deals, but the sales guy from both the KIA and Mazda "creeps me and my wife out..." The KIA guy was a bit too eager and the Mazda guy was way too worry about his upcoming vacation to care, plus he give some wrong info. Not a good thing in the age of internet....
Donnelly Kia
Too Far. Sorry No Data
Promenade Kia
Quebec side, Worry about getting the car over the boarder....
KIA 417
The sales guy is really good, know his product and know what was on the lot. A good sales, got me to a payment I'm happy with and a good trade in for my hunk of junk minivan. The business manager offer all the extra bit, but didn't force it on. A nice point. I know that the dealer makes a good chunk of change on the "extras". Nice be able to say "no thank you" and mean it...
The delivery could have gone a bit better, but I blame half of that on the Christmas holidays and the other half on inexperience on the part of the sales guy...
After sales... No data. It only been 2 months

I really would have like to get my Rondo at Bank Street because it is so close to where I live, but at the end I went with KIA 417, not because of the deal, (At Bank Street they were throwing numbers at me...) but because the sales guy did a good job of presenting the car. I'm hoping that the after sales is as good as the buying... Anyway, do your research, Have fun, and
"know when to walk away
and know when to run"
