For my wife and I, going to buy a new car is very similar to going to the dentist. Don't like to do it, but sometimes it just needs to be done. Our new friend Zoranco Kirovski of Crown Kia changed our thinki to going to the dentist. Don't like to do it, but sometimes it just needs to be done. Our new friend Zoranco Kirovski of Crown Kia changed our thinking. Not only was "Z' the epitome of class and professionalism, he was just an interesting guy to talk and deal with. From casual observation, it seems like all of the folks at Crown Kia are that way. The entire process was so smooth that my wife was on the phone recommending Crown Kia to a fellow co-worker before her 2014 Sorrento even made it home. More

WHAT AN ABSOLUTE JOY TO WORK WITH ROB IN SALES AND PAT IN FINANCE. THEY CHANGED MY WHOLE IDEA OF A CAR BUYING EXPERIENCE. ROB WAS HELPFUL, "PATIENT," AND MOST OF ALL A TRUE PROFESSIONAL.

I was on the way to work when I noticed that my car was beginning to overheat. I drove my car to the repair shop that morning and was there about as soon as they opened. To make a long story short, I left beginning to overheat. I drove my car to the repair shop that morning and was there about as soon as they opened. To make a long story short, I left my car and Matt and he arranged a rental for me through Hertz and I was able to get to my job in Manatee County, by 9:30. Matt called to update me daily and I felt a burden lifted when he told me the price of the repair. He is professional, friendly and knowledgeable and genuinely seemed to care about me and my needs. That doesn't come from corporate training,..he brought that with him. I am also including Evan because he was there to provide answers to Matt's questions and was also professional and friendly. Patti was friendly as well and I applaud you for allowing her to express herself in pink. Thank you for your help and wonderful service. I hope I don't need repairs anytime soon, but if I do, I'll come to you guys first. Sabrina Truesdell-Payne More

The reason I gave them five stars was that the entire experience from beginning to end was a delight. The salesman, Michael Cornell, was the picture of friendliness, professionalism, and most of all - ex experience from beginning to end was a delight. The salesman, Michael Cornell, was the picture of friendliness, professionalism, and most of all - extremely helpful. He spent a long time getting the car to be affordable which was so important since I am a single mother. He called me repeatedly afterwards to make sure I was happy with my purchase. He actually truly cares about people and finding out what they need instead of trying to push you into doing something you can't afford or don't want to do. I will definiely be back in the future to buy from Mr. Cornell. By the way, my 2013 Kia Forte is the best car I have ever had - just as Mr. Cornell said it would be. Sincerely, Cindy Powell More

I have been dealing with Sherry since 2001 and, as far as I am concerned, she is the ONLY one I will work with. She is very kind, but also very no-nonsense when it comes to the upkeep of my vehicle. Sherry I am concerned, she is the ONLY one I will work with. She is very kind, but also very no-nonsense when it comes to the upkeep of my vehicle. Sherry always maps out areas that need attention (and, when possible, shows me) and how much it will cost. To me, a Mitsubishi is a very honest vehicle and Sherry is a very honest Service Rep. More

I was visiting the area from Virginia and noticed my headlight low beam was burned out. It was a Saturday morning and I saw that the service dept. opened at 8am. I went over about 8:30 and was taken rig headlight low beam was burned out. It was a Saturday morning and I saw that the service dept. opened at 8am. I went over about 8:30 and was taken right away by Evan Doel. He was very helpful and filled out my papers, estimated the cost and how long it would take. They had me in and out in less than an hour and the price was reasonable. Patti Buchhalter took my payment and was very nice. I have always been really happy with my dealer service in Virginia but this team is just as helpful and friendly as back home. Thanks for helping a traveller in need. More

The used car sales facility is a bit seedy looking compared to the new car lot, but the used sales staff was friendly and helpful. compared to the new car lot, but the used sales staff was friendly and helpful. More

From the moment I first walked into Crown Kia and met Deborah Dietrich to discuss potentially buying a new Optima, I knew I was going to have a great experience- and I did. The sales experience was A+ an Deborah Dietrich to discuss potentially buying a new Optima, I knew I was going to have a great experience- and I did. The sales experience was A+ and I drove off the lot that day in the car of my dreams, and feeling as though I'd just made a friend as well. The entire staff, mind you, are wonderful! If you are looking to lease or purchase a vehicle, I would recommend looking no further than Crown Kia- and be sure to ask for "Debbie D." Even now, several weeks after the sale, Deb continues to be a constant source of knowledge whenever I have a question. Clearly, she is not just in it for the sale, but she really cares about what happens when you drive away. This was a wonderful car-buying experience and Debbie is an outstanding sales lady! More
