He never left left us waiting and wondering, the whole time we were there he kept us informed of what was gong on and how long it would take. James and the Bulldog Kia staff worked very hard to get us in the car we wanted with the price range we could afford. We would recommend everyone to buy their vehicles though Bulldog KIa and we would let them know of the great service James provided. Thank You More

My wife had been driving her Pathfinder for 15 years and we decided she deserved a new vehicle. We researched all the SUV's and decided that the Kia Sorento with AWD would be perfect for her. After checki we decided she deserved a new vehicle. We researched all the SUV's and decided that the Kia Sorento with AWD would be perfect for her. After checking with some other dealers I contacted Bulldog Kia through their internet site and Shannon called me almost immediately. She was very helpful and made me feel welcome even before I set a date to meet with the staff at Bulldog Kia. After meeting her all I can say is that she's a sweetheart. When we arrived we were welcomed on the lot and introduced to James Hammond (Sales Manager) and Jonathan Pace (Sales Consultant). They were my type of people, very attentive and helpful but not pushy or overbearing. They seemed to want our business and were willing to work with us to make sure we bought the Sorento we had decided on. Jonathan took us for a test drive, I just went along for the ride since this was to be Wanda's vehicle, of course she loved it as I knew she would. Back at the showroom James checked the inventory of other dealers to make sure there wasn't another Sorento available that would meet our needs with less options (cheaper). Neither James or Jonathan tried to push their vehicle on us, and were willing to go as far as Knoxville to find a less expensive model. By this time I knew we really wanted the vehicle on the lot and James and Jonathan went to work to make it affordable for us. We had driven Wanda's Pathfinder to Bulldog Kia even though we didn't intend to trade it. James said let me look at it and maybe we can work a trade into the deal. I didn't want the hassle of selling it myself but figured we would come out better if I did. Much to my surprise he allowed me more than I was going to ask for it, and this was not off of sticker price but a lower, negotiated selling price. Jonathan and I soon came to a mutually agreeable price and James accepted it too. After the necessary paperwork was done, which didn't take nearly as long as I expected, Jonathan had the Sorento washed and filled up with gas. He then showed us how to operate all the electronics, and took the time to program both our cell phones with the Kia App and synched them with the Kia system. He also set up our navigation system and set the rear door height to Wanda's short stature. It was then off to meet Steve Carter who helped us secure the best financing rate. He made sure we made the best decisions regarding rebates vs financing rates so we had the best deal available. Again this process went much quicker than expected and we were ready to take Wanda's new Sorento home. I can't imagine having a better experience when buying a new car. The whole staff, even people we weren't dealing with were very friendly. Jonathan Pace was very personable and professional, he worked hard to get our business but was relaxed through the whole buying process. He has already called to make sure we were happy and let us know that if we needed any help learning how to operate the electronics or anything else, to call him. If you are looking for a new Kia, I highly recommend you go directly to Bulldog Kia, you won't be disappointed! More
I went to Bulldog Kia not looking for a car just to look because my credit is so bad and I really gave up on getting a car and I wasnjust riding around from one car lot to another and I ended up at Bulldog because my credit is so bad and I really gave up on getting a car and I wasnjust riding around from one car lot to another and I ended up at Bulldog Kia and Jamie Bales came out and asked me if I am looking to get a car and I said no and he said let us see what we can do. Jamie didn't rush me into buying a car he didn't sale me any false promises or anything and when I talk to Steve he made everything else even better he sealed the deal and I know for a fact that, that it was all God's doing I was very nervous and I just knew that I wasn't going to get anything but the Lord worked it out for me and I on top of that I received 4 basketball game tickets. When I left Bulldog Kia I got home and I started crying and thanking the Lord for his many Blessings, it still don't seem real to me. I just want to thank Jamie Bales and Steve the financial person for all their help and faith in me. THANK YOU FOR THE BLESSING GUYS!!! More
