Toyota Escondido

We thought a 2013 Avalon Hybrid with the Touring or Limited package would be the right car for us. After a nice test drive with a nice young salesman, we were lured into a typical endurance contest wit Limited package would be the right car for us. After a nice test drive with a nice young salesman, we were lured into a typical endurance contest with a couple levels of sales management above the young man who took us on our test drive. We were only there for the test drive, did not have the Matrix with us that we intended to trade, and we had a limited amount of time available. We made this clear to Warren and Robert, and they acknowledged our situation, yet they came on to us with a line about "if we can make you an incredible deal today will you buy the car?" So sure, we agreed we probably would, if the deal was unbelievable. From that point forward the tag team of sales reps was obnoxious at best. Offered a coke, brought us a 7-up... what was that about? Made us a commitment for a car that they would have in the showroom the following day, took a $500 deposit from us, then claimed an inability to get the car there, but requested that we bring our Matrix in and they would loan us a Camry for the weekend. Now I know they could have sent somebody to Irvine for the Avalon and brought it down for us. And I know that they could have made a decision about the trade-in value of the Matrix within an hour or two of my handing it over to them. And I know that I would have bought a car from them if they were "good" instead of "bad." But they were totally manipulative and uncooperative and unwilling to negotiate in a straight-forward manner, so I rate them BAD. A few days later I traded my Matrix for a new Avalon Hybrid with Touring package at Toyota Carlsbad. The terms and conditions were no different from those I was trying to nail down at Toyota Escondido. The sales team at Carlsbad was willing to work with me instead of xx me. More

I contacted this dealer via the Internet. I was looking for a price quote.

I contacted 5 different dealers and only got an actual starting quote,and not just the msrp from only 2 of the 5 I contacted. I ended up bringing my trade I for appraisal and worked with Kevin. I had originally was in contact with Scott on the Internet but he was out the day I brought my car in. Kevin was great. He quickly got my car appraised, explained all the options on the vehicle I was interested in and further updated me on pricing. There was no pressure or hard sales tactics, just time answering all my questions and educating me on my options. When I came back the following weekend I ended up with a better price than originally quoted and really felt I got a fair deal. The best way I can describe Kevin and Scott is not "used car salesmen," but rather as customer service professionals. I would highly recommend this dealer but mostly Kevin and Scott. More
