Diane Karel, excellent sales rep! I had the most amazing car purchase experience ever. I was trying to trade my Mercedes with a either a 3-series BMW or a VW cc that I had found online I had the most amazing car purchase experience ever. I was trying to trade my Mercedes with a either a 3-series BMW or a VW cc that I had found online. Our sales person, Diane Karel, was very helpful and provided us with the information we needed to find what we were looking for. Unlike other sales persons who are very pushy and try to make you buy the car you aren't interested, Diane was very patient and respected our decision. I was impressed when she called me to follow up and see how we liked our new car. She is very knowledgeable, respectful, a good listener, diligent, and understands her customers' needs. It was my pleasure working with her. I will definitely go back to her for my future car purchase and refer my friends. Thank you so much Diane, you are awesome :) More

Great First Car Buying Experience! This our first car buying experience, and at first we were intimidated by the whole process, but our experience at Fields Volkswagen of Daytona was fa This our first car buying experience, and at first we were intimidated by the whole process, but our experience at Fields Volkswagen of Daytona was far from intimidating, and very pleasant. Largely because our salesperson, Dario Taranto, was exceptional. He was very friendly, knowledgeable, and very honest. We did not at all feel pressured into buying something that we didn't need for our car. He genuinely cared about our needs, and even offered valuable advice that will help us tremendously. We purchased a beautiful 2015 GTI, and we could not be any happier with our purchase. Thanks to Dario, and the Fields Volkswagen of Daytona staff, we had an enjoyable first car buying experience. For anyone out there looking to buy a Volkswagen in the central Florida area, we highly recommend Fields Volkswagen of Daytona! More

Above & Beyond! I love my new Passat! We had the unfortunate experience of having to trade the first new car we purchased,(because of a factory defect), for a second I love my new Passat! We had the unfortunate experience of having to trade the first new car we purchased,(because of a factory defect), for a second new car within 3 days. Dario Taranto went above & beyond anything we expected of him. He was with us throughout the whole process. Much gratitude to him. A shout out to Joshua for all his help in locating both cars. We were a little disappointed with the wait time of receiving the new one. There were to many delays even after the dealership had the car. We were also disappointed with the GM with Fields of Daytona. He was right in giving us the new car, but we feel that he didn't communicate with us in a timely manner. Also, the VW reps didn't seem to be in a hurry to get the job done for us. We understand that there are procedures that take time, but the GM should have made it happen quicker. We will still recommend Fields VW to all of our friends & family. Especially Dario. Sincerely, Toni Bell & John Fioretti More

Diane Karel our Sales - Our Sales experience was outstanding We just purchased a Beetle convertible. Our sales associate was Diane Karel. She was so helpful, the trade-in value on our traded car was a little l We just purchased a Beetle convertible. Our sales associate was Diane Karel. She was so helpful, the trade-in value on our traded car was a little low, so we decided to put the purchase off and sell the car on our own and then decide if we wanted to buy the VW at that point in time. Diane had one of the associates pre-sell our car and got us a higher value, called us and we put the transaction together over the phone. Arriving the next morning, Diane took us through the trade in and purchase process. It was a very pleasant experience and I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone that will guide you through an outstanding purchase experience. More

I experienced Excellence I hope this review will assist others in need of service. I had not been to a dealership for service since my 20's (51 now), concerned about the value I hope this review will assist others in need of service. I had not been to a dealership for service since my 20's (51 now), concerned about the value for my money. Well, my experience with Mike Kennedy at Field's VW has turned me around. My AC wasn't working well. And my stereo Aux input stopped working. First impressions were great. The guy greeting me when I drove in was friendly. I was shown the way to a nice waiting area with drinks, snacks, etc. Wasn't long before Mike introduced himself, realized ownership of the vehicle had changed and updated it with my information. Considering I didn't have an appointment, he came back within a reasonable time and advised I needed a new compressor and could use anther couple services. I chose to have the AC fixed. Mike was really helpful in the billing some of the cost to my repair insurance. In the end, everything is working great, even the stereo! Mike was professional, courteous, friendly, and greeted me when I returned to pick up a roof rack from the Parts Dept (also a good experience with Pat, and matched an online VW discount). I look forward to coming back again. More

WOW I was on vocation from Canada in FL Palm Coast , and my keys got wet while on the beach. I called the dealer ship and Mr Micheal was on the other side I was on vocation from Canada in FL Palm Coast , and my keys got wet while on the beach. I called the dealer ship and Mr Micheal was on the other side. he gave me the number to call to get some one to get my car out of the beach, then when I arrived he informed that they can get new keys, but he said lets try to wait one night, as when they keys get dry they might work again. Next morning, when I got the call It was Micheal again. from his own personal cell phone, and he is like Sir, you car is working and ready for you to pick up. This by far was the highlight of my vocation. Thank you Volkswagen and GOD bless you MR Kennedy. More

Let me show you my Profolio I had been considering trading in my gas guzzler for a few months. With the increase in premium gas prices over the last several months I began my se I had been considering trading in my gas guzzler for a few months. With the increase in premium gas prices over the last several months I began my search for a Diesel. How could I part with my beautiful sports car with all the pep and vigor that it provided my ego with? How could I become so practical? I mean diesels get between 40 to 45 mpg on the highways and I commute 100+ miles a day, do the math, I figured quickly how I could give myself a raise!!!!! Enter Dario Taranto!! I pulled into Fields Volkswagen Dealership and began searching the lot. I was greeted cheerfully and respectfully by Dario. He began inquiring my needs and what I was searching for in a vehicle. He presented to me both the Diesel Jetta and the Passat. The overall appearance and the feel of the Passat TDI SE was just what I was looking for and more! Dario explained the Turbo Engine that it possessed and how the acceleration that I had feared I would loose was something that would remain. He took time to explain all the features of steering ratio and suspension as well as the transmission and sleek aerodynamic design. The test drive was like none I had ever been given, it was more than a drive, it was an awakening! WOW! Really, a car this great and how many miles to a gallon do I get? Leave it to the Germans, so advanced and dependable, with all the right moves! A fair trade? Are you kidding me? These guys are Great! Dario assessed my Audi and I gave him a number. There was no haggling, no pressure, and the financial manager (Chris Fellows) met me just where I needed to be. They gave me a great price on both my trade and my new Diesel. I'm looking forward to returning to the Service Dept. to keep her in top shape, and continue the great relationship that has been established by Dario Taranto and the entire staff. I've been an owner of BMW, and Audi, and now the more practical advanced system PASSAT TDI SE that will always be "THE SMARTEST AND BEST FINANCIAL MOVE" I've ever made in my 40 years of buying cars, Thanks to DARIO!

OUR PURHASE OF A VW JETTA TDI 2014 We were greeted by a very enthusiastic and energetic Sales Associate, Dario Taranto. He was extremely knowledgeable and answered all of our questions, We were greeted by a very enthusiastic and energetic Sales Associate, Dario Taranto. He was extremely knowledgeable and answered all of our questions, taking us on demo rides in the Jetta TDI and the Passat Sedan. He made sure we experienced all the options of the vehicles on the demo and treated us respectfully and with humor on a very busy day (Memorial Day Weekend). He discussed various options in leasing and purchasing which was extremely helpful in our decision. Dario has contacted us several times since to be sure that all is well. All other personnel that we met were also polite, knowledgeable and helpful. We definitely recommend Dario for his excellent sales help, and we respect the Fields VW way of doing business....and we love our TDI which we have driven from Florida to Maine this month. More
