The great thing was they weren't pushy. You go in, look at teh car that YOU want to look at, not the one they wanted to get off the lot fastest. The Kia dealership on Hempstead Turnpike was desperate to s at teh car that YOU want to look at, not the one they wanted to get off the lot fastest. The Kia dealership on Hempstead Turnpike was desperate to shovel a Kia down our throat, regardless of what I thought of it, and seemed unable to help us with answers to questions, comparisons of the different brands it carried, or even with the models of Kia it had. Karp however, had a great staff, that wanted to actually help us buy the best car, even if it wasn't necessarily from them. That is real honesty. As it turns out however, Kia is the best car maker we have encounterd, for a lower price than those that rank as second best. More
In July we were introduced to Karp Kia when we purchased a 2013 Optima. Our experience with the dealership, and especially our salesman, Michael Rosenberg, was so positive that when we lost our older second a 2013 Optima. Our experience with the dealership, and especially our salesman, Michael Rosenberg, was so positive that when we lost our older second car during "Sandy," I called Michael about options that would get my bride a car which we now needed more than ever, having relocated miles from my son's school. School buses were now out of the question. Since we lost house and car with very little approved insurance I asked for his opinion. He carefully and clearly went through all of our choices, from purchase of a reliable used car to a purchased second new car to a lease agreement. After considering these suggestions we opted for a lease agreement on a second Optima. Given the widespread and massive destruction of the storm I could only hope for a quick close on our deal. Michael and Karp made it happen within the promised two weeks. We now are the very proud owners/lessees of two Optimas. The cars couldn't be better. They have the peppiness that makes acceleration a breeze, and handle beautifully. Since we recently added by 17 year old as a licensed driver I was extremely concerne about responsiveness and handling. Sitting as a passenger when he drives tells me that we made the right choice. The Optioma is a car that new drivers can use with confidence. The safety features are as good as any hat I researched. They get great gas mileage. However, what pleases me most is the realm feeling of family that I get from my business with Karp and Michael Rosenberg. Michael keeps in touch to make sure that we are still happy with our Optimas. He is glad to arrange for service appointments, and generally tries to anticipate ways that we can get the most out of our vehicles. The price, and the service are terrific. They get my highest rating. More
We had just been through 2 weeks without heat,water,or electric after our house was flooded filling the basement up to the first floor and also lost both of our 2011 trucks in the hurricane Sandy storm. W electric after our house was flooded filling the basement up to the first floor and also lost both of our 2011 trucks in the hurricane Sandy storm. When we first walked through the door at the KARP KIA dealership,we were greeted by our salesperson Michael Rosenberg...not ambushed like other places..."greeted" by asking us how we were doing and if we needed him he would be standing by when we were ready to talk. After he heard what we had been through,he imediately went to work to find us what we wanted and what we could afford to pay after losing almost everything we owned. We ended up leasing 2 KIA Sorentos with AWD/6cylinder. my wife wanted a white one, and he found the last one they had in stock and got it for her..my pick was a little tougher to find,being that I wanted black on black AWD/6 cylynder a very popular model and color....But Michael Rosenberg is the best salesperson I have ever dealt with. We had just met him and he was trying to find the exact car I wanted like I was one of his family members. He searched ever dealership and checked every shipment to other dealerships until he found the care I wanted. Not only did he look for and find the truck my wife and I wanted ,but also called and emailed me everyday to keep me apprised of what he had found and when the trucks were on their way and ready for pick up. He always told me the truth of what rebates I was entitled to get and when and where the trucks would be located. When he told me he was going to do somthing...it was done in the time he said it would be. My wife and I have found Michael Rosenburg and his sales team to be very honest and trustworthy and highly recommend KARP KIA dealership. it was a very pleasurable experience and I will be going back to them again when I am in need of a vehicle. Thank you,Patrick Mendola More
We were looking for an SUV to replace my Tucson (which I loved)because it was flooded in the hurricane. We decided to look at KIAs as my friend owns one and is very happy with it. We stopped by Karp KIA a loved)because it was flooded in the hurricane. We decided to look at KIAs as my friend owns one and is very happy with it. We stopped by Karp KIA and were greeted by Victor Travaglianti. He showed us the Sportage and Sorento and explained all the options. It was a very pleasant experience and was easy to make a decision. Mr. Travaglianti explored all possible rebates for us so we were satisfied with the price. When we came to pick up the Sorento all the leg work was done for us, insurance and DMV. I do feel comfortable calling Mr. Travaglianti if ever I need anything. After driving the Sorento for a few days now I like it more than I though I would. Also, the location of the Karp KIA on Sunrise Hwy in Rockville Centre is very convenient for us. More

I w visit. Victor reached out to me to see if I had any more questions regarding the car of interest. I came into the dealership, with a trade-in. I was not hassled in the least rather the opposite, it was a pleasant and professional experience. During the test drive Vic answered all my questions and told me a few extra fun facts on the cars. Victor is very personable and genuine. The financing options and car of choice was in the highest range of desirability. On a relative basis from dealerships in Subaru in Bayside (trade in) and my Kia in Long Island City visit, Vic's professionalism is in a league of its own. All in all it was a great saturday experience and a great purchase. Love the car, appreciate the great service, will recommend to all my friends and family to try Karp Kia and mostly importantly try to do it with Vic. More

I would highly recommend Jonathan and this dealership. Everyone was kind and friendly, but not pushy. The whole experience was pleasant and business-like quiet.
