Jim Shorkey Kia Gainesville

This was the most pleasant car buying experience I've ever had. I went in to possibly buy a used car for my daughter's first vehicle and I ended up driving out with a brand new Kia Soul for about the sa ever had. I went in to possibly buy a used car for my daughter's first vehicle and I ended up driving out with a brand new Kia Soul for about the same price I was planning on paying for a used car. I had planned on visiting several dealerships in Gainesville before making a decision but Madison didn't give me a reason to leave. I was very pleased with how honest the negotiation process was. I've already recommended Carriage Kia to several of my friends and I've placed Madison's business cards in my gym for my members to see in case they're thinking about buying a car. More

I was looking for a manual Sportage and they were one of the few dealerships in the state who had one to test drive. I ended up buying theirs in spite of it not being the exact color I was looking for and the few dealerships in the state who had one to test drive. I ended up buying theirs in spite of it not being the exact color I was looking for and it having more features than I required (I wanted a base model rather than a LX) because they brought the price down to something I was comfortable paying. Also, my husband was a big fan of the sand color of their manual Sportage, and the better-priced Sportages I was considering were all out of state and harder to obtain. More

I had previously visited other dealerships prior to buying my 2011 Kia Optima but instantly liked the personal at Carriage and found them to be very professional and easy to deal with. I did not get th buying my 2011 Kia Optima but instantly liked the personal at Carriage and found them to be very professional and easy to deal with. I did not get the money I had expected to get on my 2004 4 runner and that is why I gave them a 4 on price. Great people and dealership. Regards, Jack More

My husband and I started our car shopping at Carriage Kia with Mike Paglianti. He showed us the vehicles he thought described what we were looking for. I liked the sportage but wanted to continue looking aro with Mike Paglianti. He showed us the vehicles he thought described what we were looking for. I liked the sportage but wanted to continue looking around before we made a decision. Mike was not "pushy" at all; which I appreciated. We continued to look around at others dealerships and finally decided to come back for the Sportage because we felt like it was the best fit for what I need in a vehicle. After the purchasing process, we were taken through an introduction and a "How to" course with Mikey. He was very thorough with explaining what buttons did what, showing me how to use the navigation system, and helped me the blue tooth set up. This was by far the best experience that my husband and I have had purchasing a vehicle. Thank you! Barbara Szenti More

I was searching for a dependable new or used vehicle. I had been to two other dealerships and had two prospects I was considering. I completed the online application, explained exactly what I was looking had been to two other dealerships and had two prospects I was considering. I completed the online application, explained exactly what I was looking for and the price range I needed to stay in. I immediately received a response email and a phone call. I made an appointment and was greeted warmly when I walked into the showroom. I sat with Michael Paglianti and discussed exactly what I wanted and needed in a vehicle. We test drove one I fell in love with. While I went back to work the finance dept went to work on my paperwork. I came back after work. I was crushed when I was given the final figures. It wasnt in my budget. Quick thinking by sales associates and they had another car pulled around for me to look at. The Kia Forte 5. It is so CUTE! I drove it and loved it. The finance dept once again was busy with my paperwork while I was out driving. I was presented with the final numbers upon returning. It was a little more than I had stated, but it was doable. I signed and was handed my keys!!! Mikey came out to meet me and he sat in the car with me showing me all the gadgets and their functions. It was a great car buying experience overall and I would definately reccommend Carriage Kia to my friends. Thanks !! More

Great people to deal with. The people are courteous and will negotiate a very competitive price. I visited another KIA dealer and they were not as good. The Sorento is a great car. The Kia Sorento is a mi will negotiate a very competitive price. I visited another KIA dealer and they were not as good. The Sorento is a great car.

I was in the market for a new SUV. I had purchased a vehicle from the carriage family before and had been very pleased with my experience. After looking at several SUV's I found that the Kia Sorento had vehicle from the carriage family before and had been very pleased with my experience. After looking at several SUV's I found that the Kia Sorento had more bang for the buck. I was able to get into the vehicle I wanted at the price I wanted. When I first went to Carriage Kia, I informed the Rusty that it may be weeks to months before I buy. I also told him that I did not want to be pressured. I gave him permission to follow up with me within 2 weeks. I did not hear from them prior to that call. I do not like to feel pressured to buy a vehicle. Carriage Kia did not pressure me. That is the main reason I went back into the dealership. I test drove several vehicles during my first visit. When I went back, I already had decided which vehicle I wanted. The only feature that the vehicle did not have was leather. I added leather and asked that it be installed as soon as possible since I was leaving town on Friday. I closed the deal Wednesday night and had the vehicle back Friday before going out of town. The salesperson definitely went the extra mile to make sure I was happy. I could not have bought a comparable SUV for what I paid for this vehicle. The entire staff was friendly from the first moment I walked in until I drove off after delivery. I would recommend Carriage Kia to anyone looking for a quality, affordable vehicle. I have driven several different vehicles over the years and I am very impressed with the new Kia's. More
