Lupient Chevrolet

My experience with the dealership internet sales was not the greatest at first. As a return customer i was hoping to get a response to my inquiry right away, but i never heard from anyone. I decided to give the greatest at first. As a return customer i was hoping to get a response to my inquiry right away, but i never heard from anyone. I decided to give it another chance and it lead me to Kif who made my experience fantastic from then on. This is my 3rd time purchasing a vehicle from them and I will remain a customer . I am very happy with my new car. Thank you to everyone who helped me and made sure I left as a happy customer. I especially would like to Thank Kif Patrick for the great service that he provided me with. More

Exceptional customer service from start to finish. Initially we started our search online. I called several dealers in the Twin Cities. I spoke to Steve at Lupient because it was his name that poppe Initially we started our search online. I called several dealers in the Twin Cities. I spoke to Steve at Lupient because it was his name that popped up on the screen. While my husband was at work I decided to visit the dealership the next day to see what trade-in options we had for our Trailblazer. While Steve was away from the office Sonja stepped in. My kids (and I) loved her. She helped with the kids, answered questions ect... When Steve returned he did the same..... He was up front, to the point, kind, helpful, not your typical "sales guy". I chose to check out Lupient because of the service I got first - over the phone. We love our new car and when it's time to buy again we will most definately call Steve. If Steve is out, we will call Sonja! My daughter, who is 5, said she is going to buy her first car from Sonja! The financing portion of the transaction was smooth. Mike did a great job going through the paperwork / explaining all of our options. Thank you Lupient for making the car buying process EASY and ENJOYABLE! More

If you enjoy being lied to straight to your face this is the best dealer for you. I had e-mailed several dealers about what I was going to buy (included specs) and what I was looking for in terms of a deal the best dealer for you. I had e-mailed several dealers about what I was going to buy (included specs) and what I was looking for in terms of a deal and asked them to quote. Once I had found my best deal I e-mailed the others to inform them of my decision and thank them for their participation. The salesperson at this dealership e-mailed back that "We have the truck you want and we will not be undersold. If you take the deal you have in place you will be sorry." Thinking I had nothing to lose I went to the dealership and asked to see both the vehicle and the better deal. Wasted about an hour and a half (the guy did a search of the dealership's partners) before finding out they had neither the truck nor a better deal on anything comparable. The salesperson was annoyed that I had come in to "Work him over" to no avail. Why would they tell me they had exactly what I was looking for when they did not? Perhaps because they thought they would be able to work ME over? Never again --- good place to kick tires and collect brochures but they will never see a nickel of my money. More

Warning: This is the place that gives car dealers their bad reputation. I was in the market for a new Chevy recently and stopped in at this location because it happened to be on my way home from work. Un bad reputation. I was in the market for a new Chevy recently and stopped in at this location because it happened to be on my way home from work. Unlike the previous reviewer, I was quickly greeted and got quite a bit of help selecting a car. Unfortunately, that was the end of the good customer service. We had arranged a deal on pricing, down payment and payment terms to be closed another day. Before I returned, we spoke on the phone to confirm what we had discussed and everything was on track. When I arrived, things came off the tracks. The interest rate we had agreed to suddenly changed, they decided to add a point for themselves. The down payment terms we had agreed to had suddenly changed. I was tempted to continue with the paperwork, but thank goodness I didn't. After leaving to reconsider and doing more homework, not only did I recognize the lies I had been told, but the sales manager and general manager called me to sprinkle on more lies to try and save the deal. Flat out, this company has a culture of lying to customers. You would be a fool to do business here. More

On 2-6-2012 I purchased a 2012 Chevy Equinox LT w/the total cost of $29,426.25 from Sales Chad paying via Cash Paid in Full with the accessories/add ons that was also purchased. On 9-26-2012 I traded total cost of $29,426.25 from Sales Chad paying via Cash Paid in Full with the accessories/add ons that was also purchased. On 9-26-2012 I traded the Equinox for a credit of $22k from the dealership, then applied it to a 2012 Chevy Cruz LT1 for a total of over $21k w/a trade difference of minus $366.75, License Plate $235, Title & Transfer Fees $36, Transit Tax $20 & Document Administration Fee $75.00 Totaling $291 from Sales Pat. In other words to them considered a even trade up. Numbers are rounded up/down. The package included Fog lights, Sunroof, Premium Sound, Power seat adjustable driver, Remote start, rear parking assist door sill plates and all weather mats. On 9-28-2012 I returned to dealership to speak with the General Manager Pam to express how I got ripped off. Under no circumstances would she refund cash back, only to agree with putting a Seal Coat (Cila-Jet) treatment on the exterior & interior of the Chevy Cruz at a mark up price of $799.00. She only applied the Cila-Jet because there was some kind of white specs on the front hood and the vehicle was dirty from the poor cleaning job the service center provided at the time of trade. On 9-29-2012 I brought a former auto sales professional of 12 to 13 years experience to discuss the options with the GM Pam to try to make me happy. Again, no deal or any adjustment. I then demanded my Chevy Equinox back from Pam & again was denied & found out that my Chevy Equinox was already sold & gone leaving me with nothing accept the initial Trade of the Chevy Cruz. Even doing research in finding a better deal at another Chevy deal with even a $2000.00 savings. The whole period of the transactions, nothing was ever mentioned on a return policy even if the State of Minnesota has no 3 day return policy. The dealership still should have informed and told me of any said return policy in which they failed to do. Has my friend and I tried to discuss the new deal we had found at another Chevy dealer, Pam was noticeably getting agitated and accusing me that's we we agreed on. I replied, "no that's what you agreed on". So then we threw another chance at her with ok about matching the invoice price minus the holdback? Again, no matter what was said she would not make a customer happy let alone a returning customer. To say the least the mark up's on this deal was real and from the 1st time I walked in to the time of the trade, each person that was involved denied any mark up and down right lied straight to my face with out even showing any proof has I requested to see the documentation. I will NEVER return to this dealership again for not only the unprofessional service but the lack of respect towards a new car buyer, speaking of myself. If anything ever happens that they want to reach a favorable solution, only God himself will help make it happen so I can be happy even if the hassle I have already gone through. More

I did several test drives and the new car offer price was a fair. I was ready to order it and made an appointment for a trade in estimate. However, the trade in price was insulting, a deal breaker. When I to a fair. I was ready to order it and made an appointment for a trade in estimate. However, the trade in price was insulting, a deal breaker. When I told my salesman Tom that the sale was off, he brought over his manager. Kim was horrible. Two hours wasted trying to convince me to buy from inventory stating this would increase the trade in offer. I was factory ordering because they didn't stock what I wanted. She told me I'd have to compromise. I was not willing to compromise 90% of what I wanted; I walked out the door. Ultimately deciding to wait for the 2013 model. A few weeks later I found the exact car I was looking (at another dealership) and forwarded them the link. They said for an additional $1000 "it would be yours". Yeah right! I would not recommend this dealership to anyone. I am working with another dealership and have placed an order to my exact specifications. More

I had talked to several other dealerships looking for a new or used 2011 Chevy Tahoe. I had requested a white color and a few specific options. 2 dealerships told me to come on out, but when I got there, new or used 2011 Chevy Tahoe. I had requested a white color and a few specific options. 2 dealerships told me to come on out, but when I got there, they didn't even have a single white, 2011 Tahoe. Waste of time. When I called Lupient and spoke to Nick, he took my information and details of what I was looking for and called back with several options within a few hours of the Twin Cities. That was true customer service. I came into the dealership and they had a loaded 2011 Tahoe, and were really dealing to unload it. I got a very fair trade in value for my trade in car, and a great deal on exactly what I was looking for. I couldn't be more happy. More
