We were purchasing a car for our daughter, and after much research, found the Kia Sportage to have the highest possible safety rating, with an amazing amount of standard safety features, at an affordable pri research, found the Kia Sportage to have the highest possible safety rating, with an amazing amount of standard safety features, at an affordable price. We visited several Kia dealers, but found Karp Kia to be both fair and honest. Adda, and everyone else at the dealership (Al, David, Todd, etc.), were great to work with. As a result,we will -- and have already -- recommend our friends to take a look at the Kia cars, but only at Karp! More

My husband and I bought a Kia Sorento two and a half weeks ago. We decided on a Kia Sorento because it is rated very high by Kelly Blue Book and Consumer Reports. We had previously rented a Kia Almant weeks ago. We decided on a Kia Sorento because it is rated very high by Kelly Blue Book and Consumer Reports. We had previously rented a Kia Almanti on our honeymoon and a Kia Soul when my car was in the shop and we enjoyed driving Kia. We are a new family and buying a car is a big deal since we live pay check to pay check. I thought we we getting a great deal and doing fantastic. We went and looked at cars. We went back to Kia because we liked the Kia Sorento. We were looking at it in FWD and AWD (we wanted to know the price difference. The difference between the two was roughly $2,000 so my husband agreed for AWD. We said we wanted a Kia Sorento AWD with the third row. No extras but to have the third row, you needed the convenience package so we said fine. Tom said they had a Kia Sorento AWD with third row and convenience package on the lot and quoted us a price that we thought was great. Tom said we could not see it because it was on their other lot. We put a deposit down unseen. My husband went back the Wednesday before we were picking it up (we picked the car up the Saturday of Memorial Day Weekend) to work out financing. We were hoping to trade in a 2003 Saturn VUE for close to the Kelly Blue Book dealer trade in (which was $6,500) but all they offered us was $3,200 and they would go up to $3,500. It is worth a lot more so we didn't trade it in, we are trying to sell it private (like they suggested) because otherwise we could not afford the Kia Sorento. We went to pick up the Kia Sorento and the car looked great. You couldn't read the top of the window decal (I should have suspected something there). We got home with it and were showing my parents the car and we noticed it was not AWD but FWD. We did not negotiate because we thought we were getting a good deal. They said they were having a demolition sale. How did we know it was not the car we wanted. We wanted AWD for our baby so we can be safe and travel with her in bad weather if necessary. We called Karp Kia immediately when we got home noticed it (we didn't even drive 10miles in the car). Karp Kia said it was the Vin # on the contract and the deposit. We made the deposit and never saw anything about the car but the Vin #. How would we know it wasn't/was a Kia Sorento AWD? All Karp Kia would do was offer us 1 free oil change. I wrote my review on here and Ellen Karp respond back to me right away. She was very nice and understanding. We discussed the situation and she really wanted me to be happy with it. I am very happy now. I still have FWD and I do not feel I was ripped off. I feel much better about it after speaking with Ellen. My husband and I enjoy driving the Kia Sorento and highly recommend it and Karp Kia. More
Michael is the best sales person I have ever dealt with. He is friendly, professional and very informative. We had originally gone to a Kia dealer closer to our home, test drove the car and really liked it He is friendly, professional and very informative. We had originally gone to a Kia dealer closer to our home, test drove the car and really liked it. However the sales person at that dealer offered NO information about the Kia Sorento we were interested in. So we left and I decided to look for a dealership that had been reviewed by customers on Dealer Rater and that is how we found Karp. Although Karp is about 40 miles from my home and there are 3 other Kia dealers closer to my home, the trip was worth it. I would highly recommend Karp to anyone looking for a Kia, Saab or Buick. More

After visiting numerous Kia dealers throughout New York, I cannot say enough good things about Karp Kia. All the other Kia dealers only wanted to play games and make the customers stressed out(Amazing that I cannot say enough good things about Karp Kia. All the other Kia dealers only wanted to play games and make the customers stressed out(Amazing that these dealers can remain in business). Karp Kia made my car purchase an enjoyable experience. My salesman Tony Barone was a complete gentleman as well as the manager Al Parisi. They said they would get me the car that I wanted and they did (NO GAMES). I look foward to purchasing my future vehicles from KARP. I will 100 % recommend Karp Kia to my friends and family. GOOD JOB GUYS!! Thank You, Doug G. and Mary Anne H. More

Mr Anderson, your/our sales person was attentive to our every question, even the ones we probably asked more than once.
