Paramount Ford

This was my first experience making a vehicle purchase since I am a recent widow. Scott was very patient with my questions and presented himself in a professional manner. He was knowledgeable, yet not p since I am a recent widow. Scott was very patient with my questions and presented himself in a professional manner. He was knowledgeable, yet not pushy. I was very thankful for that! He was kind and easy to talk to. The gentleman who went through the loan process with me and those in the service department were also friendly and easy to understand. I will recommend Scott and your dealership to my friends and family. Thank you, Kim Plemmons More

After having my first car totaled in the aftermath of the storms that swept through the South this year, I was left with an insurance check in my hand and no car to drive. As I started looking for a new car, storms that swept through the South this year, I was left with an insurance check in my hand and no car to drive. As I started looking for a new car, I more or less focused my search on used Hondas, since my family has always preferred them over all other auto makers (especially American-owned companies) because of their reliability, durability, and resale value. The more I looked around on the various websites that cater to car shoppers, the more I spotted the same car at Paramount Valdese. Now, it's a usual rule of thumb not to buy a used car from a dealer that doesn't specialize in that make (after all, this particular dealership specializes in Ford and Hyundai), but I thought it was worth a look. I drove around and looked at some other vehicles in the region, but none of them compared to the one that I had seen on Paramount's website. When I got to Valdese and headed on over to the dealership, I immediately met Scott McKinney and explained my situation to him. Seeing as we had driven all the way to Spartanburg, SC from Kingsport, TN and were making our way back up towards home, he went out of his way to show us kindness, courtesy, and understanding. There were other, more expensive cars on the lot, but he didn't try to sell me any of those. He didn't use any high-pressure sales tactics, nor did he act as though I was bothering him despite the fact that I was taking so much time to make my decision. He let other customers go to other dealers just to make sure that I was taken care of and that I had all of the information I needed to make my decision. In the end, I purchased that vehicle, and, though I was iffy at the time, I am glad I did. Scott helped me out by having some minor repairs made to the car at the dealership's expense and helped me to negotiate a lower price on a Honda that was already priced under the suggested prices offered by many services for a vehicle of its type and for its un-wrecked condition. Long story short: If you're going to Valdese Ford, make sure you ask for Scott McKinney. He's not the stereotypical shark who circles around the lot looking for a poor sap to sink his teeth into. Instead, he comes at it from the customer's prospective and makes a stressful process as easygoing and relaxed as he can. More

The people were very friendly and helpful. I received most of the info I needed from Brook online. Scott led us through the buying process and it was a pleasant experience.

I would highly recommend them and would deal with them again. If the follow up service is as good I'll be pleased. More

Very unprofessional and rude manager. I traded my truck but the loan fell through. Went back to pick up my truck and it had been wrecked. I have got nothing but a run around from this dealership.

It is in way worse condition than when I took it there and they are not willing to repair it correctly. Very unsatisfied. More

I called your dealership to find a lease for the Hyundai Elantra. I had talked to several other dealerships and it appeared I would not be able to find what I wanted. Scot McKinney at your dealership went t Elantra. I had talked to several other dealerships and it appeared I would not be able to find what I wanted. Scot McKinney at your dealership went to work for me and, when he did not find what I wanted in a lease, he managed to find exactly what I wanted in a used vehicle. Actually,the car and deal I got far exceeded my expectations. Scot is great. I will recommend him to anyone I know who is looking for a vehicle. Thank you again for your great service.

Made contact with the dealer over the internet. Jonathan responded promptly by phone and email. He took my trade information, evaulated it and called me back in 10 minutes to tell me he thought he could ma responded promptly by phone and email. He took my trade information, evaulated it and called me back in 10 minutes to tell me he thought he could make a deal for the 2012 Sonata I was interested in. I do a lot of homework before buying a new car. I researched the value of my car vs. the value of the new Sonata. Jonathan was able to get within $200 of my offer in less than 15 minutes. At that point the deal ws made. After another 15 minutes I had spoken with the finance manager and completed the paperwork to purchase the Sonata. After that Jonathan spent time with me going over all the details of Sonata, even setting up my bluetooth phone connection. I'll have to say, this was probably the easiest and most pleasant car buying experience I've ever had. Kudos to Jonathan and the whole team at Paramount Ford Hyundai in Valdese. I will definitely refers other to this dealership. Satisfied Customer, Lewis Wright More

Great dealership. The deal we worked out was good for me and good for them--win/win situation. Very courteous--not pushy. Traveled 78 miles to do business--would recommend doing business with them. and good for them--win/win situation. Very courteous--not pushy.
