Lawrence Kia

Walked into Lawrence Kia based on Radio commercials after visiting dealers in Topeka and Lawrence. After trying (I said trying) to work with the ma and pa "dealers for the people" I was happy to work with f visiting dealers in Topeka and Lawrence. After trying (I said trying) to work with the ma and pa "dealers for the people" I was happy to work with folks that wanted to treat me like a half way intelligent person. Daniel Benedict met me at the door and helped walk me thru what I wanted and what Lawrence Kia offered. Daniel did not push me one way or another, he was able to lead the conversation in a manner that focused on my needs and wants. The financing was painless as well. The car I ended up purchasing fit my families needs. Financing was better than we thought we would get. I would highly suggest this dealer and salesperson to customers of all car buying experience levels. Including new buyers, less confident buyers and credit issue orientated shoppers as well. Do not get trapped by the feeling that you have to go to the gaurenteed financing places that charge high fees to finance and higher prices for the cars. More

We came there today and the service was outstanding. I really didn't like the vehicle we test drove. When he found out he was relentless on getting us into something we both liked. And on our terms.

Everyone in our family needed to replace their vehicles. Finding the make of car we wanted was easy, we have ownwd 5 Kia's. Finding a car dealership was not, after alot researching we picked Shawnee Mission Finding the make of car we wanted was easy, we have ownwd 5 Kia's. Finding a car dealership was not, after alot researching we picked Shawnee Mission Kia of Lawrence based on their customer ratings & reviews. We also picked our salesperson , Bill Munsell, before even going to the dealership. He was picked because in he reviews & ratings he was described as " not pushy & laid back". In one afternoon we traded & purchased 2 cars,one for myself & one for my husband. Bill made the whole process go easy, he explained everything & answered every question. Kevin Carder handled the " finanical paperwork". He too was very good at explaining everything & answered every question. A day later we talked to Bill about seeing if we could get a deal going for our daughter. Her trade in & purchase of a vehicle would not be an easy one because of some finanical & credit issues in the past. Bill said come on in & let's see what we can do. After much HARD work with Bill & Sterling Smith , they got our daughter into a very nice used car. Every step of the way both Bill & Sterling never gave up & she is now on her way to build credit in her name. Begi Dzafarova handled the "finanical paperwork" and she was great in explaing everything. Our family would like to thank Bill, Sterling, Kevin & Begi for your hard work & great service.

My experience at Lawrence Kia was superb! I first encountered Bill one Saturday afternoon and my mom and I were just out and about and I thought it would be a good idea to go look at cars! I knew I w encountered Bill one Saturday afternoon and my mom and I were just out and about and I thought it would be a good idea to go look at cars! I knew I wanted a new car, but not that day, sometime in the future. Bill welcomed us outside and he showed me the Kia Soul which I really liked. I was not going to buy a car that day, because I had only just begun my car search. We talked about financing and what they had available, but he did not pressure us to sign anything that day. He let us walk away, to think about other options. I continued my car search, and Bill did an excellent job of communicating with me to check on how the search for a car was going. After going to several dealerships, and meeting many salesmen, I really liked the way that Bill handled the car buying process. He gave you just enough information, without being too pushy! Lawrence Kia is lucky to have Bill as a salesman! More

These guys are absolutely awesome! I couldnt have asked for a better smoother experience. They got straight to the point and made the best deal possible. I told them what i wanted and how much i wanted to for a better smoother experience. They got straight to the point and made the best deal possible. I told them what i wanted and how much i wanted to pay and they bent over backwards to get me a deal. They didnt have the color of car i wanted on the lot so they found one and brought it in. The best part was they were 100% honest about everything and i didnt feel pressured to buy the extras. I can't express enough how great and easy buying a car from them was! More

Located a several 2012 Kia Forte's on their website at a great price. They were a higher model and lower price than another dealership I had been working with. I called ahead and talked to Bill Munsell on great price. They were a higher model and lower price than another dealership I had been working with. I called ahead and talked to Bill Munsell on the phone explaining the price I was being offered for my trade on my car and the fact that his advertised price online was lower. He told me they would have to look at our car in person but it shouldn't be a problem to match the trade. I asked him to make sure he had one of the 4 advertised Forte's online on his lot as we were driving from Kansas City North to look at it. He confirmed they still had one. I informed him I would be out in the next 3 hrs and asked him to call me back if the car sold as I was specifically interested in that car. Never received a call. When my husband arrived Bill was busy with another customer so passed him off to another sales person. Magically the car I had called about was gone and so were the other 3 cars advertised online at the great price. They began showing us other Fortes but of course at a higher price. When it came time look at our trade they would not even come close to what the other dealership was giving us. We are extremely frustrated that we wasted a lot of gas and time with out family to drive out there to get the run around. I would not have wasted my time had Bill been honest over the phone or at least called us to let us know it sold. If you want a good deal drive to Anderson of St. Joseph Kia and ask for JJ. They will do your right!! More

Dustin was so easy going supportive and really helped us get the car we wanted at the monthly payment we could afforded! Chin was very helpful and made this experience easy and stress free! Look out for mik get the car we wanted at the monthly payment we could afforded! Chin was very helpful and made this experience easy and stress free! Look out for mike while Dustin and chin were very easy to understand and talked to us with respect I'm thinking mike was having a bad day...he wasn't as easy to work with as the other two...if you go in I would ask for Dustin maybe it was just my sale style but I believe in being positive and straight forward and Dustin and chin were just that they seemed like very honest people! Buy from them and you will leave feeling like you got what you set out to get done! Ps I was very nervouse and this ended up being a great experience!!! More

This was our first new car buying experience and it was surprisingly easy and care free. We initially were only going to test drive the Kia Sportage but after researching and test driving other vehicles w surprisingly easy and care free. We initially were only going to test drive the Kia Sportage but after researching and test driving other vehicles we decided that this was the car. Bill was very easy going, friendly, and very accommodating. We never felt pressured to buy a car which was very nice. I would highly recommend buying a Kia and very very very highly recommend purchasing your new Kia from Lawrence Kia. We are so happy with our new purchase and the experience was everything we wanted it to be. More

Lawrence Kia is the business that all other dealerships should be modeled after! What a great all around experience I had purchasing a new car! Everyone at Lawrence Kia is friendly, yet professional, fro should be modeled after! What a great all around experience I had purchasing a new car! Everyone at Lawrence Kia is friendly, yet professional, from the receptionist to the salesmen, finance guy, and manager. I worked with Dustin Johnson and found him to be refreshingly honest and determined to find me exactly what I wanted at a price I could afford. There were no gimmicks, games, or deceptions. There was no pressure what so ever and they were extremely willing to offer a price that made me happy. I've never been to a dealership that I didn't feel like I was being deceived or taken advantage of, until now. Dustin took time to show me every button and aspect of my new sorento so by the time I left I knew how everything worked. Anyone in the market for a new or used car should check out Lawrence Kia. More
