First-time buyer, painless and enjoyable The only other car I've bought was from some shady used dealership in Pittsburgh. It started having trouble a week after I bought it. A year and a hal The only other car I've bought was from some shady used dealership in Pittsburgh. It started having trouble a week after I bought it. A year and a half later, I am in a better place financially and decided to come to Gunther Kia to see what I could get new even with my terrible credit. Issac helped me get financing for a 2015 Kia Forte even with my sub-500 credit score and gave me a ton of advice on repairing my credit, refinancing after 8 months to lower my interest and payments, etc. He was extremely knowledgeable, easy to work with, very friendly and patient with my clueless xxx regarding all things cars and did everything he could to answer my questions and help me out right down to letting me use his phone to call my insurance company about transferring the policy. Cody in finance was great too. Funny, easy-going guy, very efficient with the mountain of paperwork, and managed to get the due date of my first payment pushed back almost a month. And I got Dolphins season tickets for buying new. Great experience on all counts, awesome staff - even the ones I only saw in passing - and just great all around. I'm thrilled to be into a new car, rid of my old hunk of scrap and overall I feel great about everything thanks to the awesome personnel here. Gunther Kia rocks. More

Everything is good Until you Pay, Sign & are Out that Door! I've purchased 2 used vehicles (Kia Sorrento & a Toyata Corolla) a couple of weeks ago and my first experience with Gunther Kia is the following: Fa I've purchased 2 used vehicles (Kia Sorrento & a Toyata Corolla) a couple of weeks ago and my first experience with Gunther Kia is the following: Facilities are Immaculate, Dealer is Outstanding, Sales Force is Good, Very Professional. They present their cars nice & clean compared to many other dealer that don't! In regards to the team my comments are as follow: -Christian Benzan, he is Ok, he knows what he is doing but Arrogant -Jonathan Chavez, friendly / professional -Roger Haigney, very professional -Joshua Clinton made himself available in a very professional way -Spencer DelCampillo, amazing, very professional, he is a plus at Gunther Kia! -Kirk Jackson, good internet follow up Unfortunately, the 2nd car I purchased was As-Is, and even though the car was supposedly inspected "as per Gunther dealer" the same week I purchased it, the car started having problems, First, I had to replace the brakes drums, pads etc. Now, the car keeps shutting off, service light is on. I took the car for checkup and they stated it needs a complete tune up; park plugs, cables, serpentine belt is cracked etc. This time I took the car back to Gunther and see what they have to say... I'm currently waiting to see if they will be as nice and helpful as they were when selling both cars. Currently I'm a little disappointed because I believed & trusted the cars were checked before selling it. I spent $7,000 out of pocket on this dealer as down payments and the least I need is to be spending extra money in mechanics in less than a month !!!! Car is currently at Gunther, let's see if they take responsibility over a "bad car" they sold. **I will add a second review with the outcome to confirm if they are as serious and responsible as they project themselves... The outcome will also let me know if I will go back in 6 months to buy a Kia Sedona... More
