Sales experience was very smooth. Derek worked with me to descrbe the various options available as well as the cost MRSP and Invoice. He worked through the details and was able to locate the color and th to descrbe the various options available as well as the cost MRSP and Invoice. He worked through the details and was able to locate the color and the options I wanted. I purchased the 2011 Toyota Corolla from Derek after leasing a 2011 Toyota Venza back in May 2011. The first service on the Venza was very pleasurable and Brian was accommodating and pleasant. More
The lease on my 2008 Prius was scheduled to expire on May 1st, so when Toyota offered sales promotions on many of its vehicles I returned to Toyota of Stamford, where I leased my Prius, to see what kind of d 1st, so when Toyota offered sales promotions on many of its vehicles I returned to Toyota of Stamford, where I leased my Prius, to see what kind of deal they could make. I scheduled a meeting with Derek Kotarowski, the sales rep I worked with four years ago. Just the fact the same salesperson was there four years later is a good sign -- too often car salespersons move around like nomads. Derek, a Prius fanatic, asked me what features I wanted on my new car (I was already decided on another Prius), found me the only one on the lot that had them all. (OK, it also has a costly sunroof, which I didn't need, and which made it more expensive than I'd planned -- but my wife reminded me that I'd been complaining for four years that the 2008 Prius did not have a sunroof, so it worked out in the end.) However, by taking my older car in trade (it was worth more than the payoff) rather than letting me simply return it, adding in the sales incentives and massaging the numbers the way car salespeople do, Derek set up a deal for a three-year lease with minimum money down, mostly to cover registration, the first month's lease payment and the never-quite-explained "origination fee," at only 6 bucks a month more than I was paying for my first Prius. The remaining two payments on my older car went away, I drove the new (actually a 2011) Prius home a couple hours later, and I am a happy customer of Toyota of Stamford once again. Where is Toyota of Stamford lacking? The service department is a bit tired and not as sparkling as I'd like, although the service reps are friendly and helpful. The waiting area is small and the coffee isn't as good as I'd like. And they don't wash your car when they finish the service. However, in my experience the service has always been performed promptly, important if you're waiting for your car, and I've never had to return the car to have something taken care of that should have been done at the service. The Prius needs service only every 5,000 miles/6 months, so I can deal with this. (It's a lot better than the service experience I had with my former car, the one I sold to buy my original Prius, and it was a Mercedes.) So, in short, I recommend Toyota of Stamford, at least based on my experience. But one warning: Don't go there and talk to Derek unless you're ready to buy a car. He is an excellent, and persuasive, salesman, and you'll drive out in a new car. More

I recently leased a car from this dealer and I must say they are excellent! The bank was very hesitant about giving me the loan but everyone at the Toyota of Stamford worked hard and pushed for me. They ev they are excellent! The bank was very hesitant about giving me the loan but everyone at the Toyota of Stamford worked hard and pushed for me. They even kept me updated on the progress of my application from day day to day. When it was finally time to pick up my car they had it waiting for me and I was in and out of the door in no problem. Everyone was great ! More

My girlfriend was looking to buy a used car and we searched and searched and even went as far as hillside nj toyota dealership because of the cars and suv's they were advertising, WOW great looking ca searched and searched and even went as far as hillside nj toyota dealership because of the cars and suv's they were advertising, WOW great looking cars on internet and awesome prices, can't find them when you get there, pushy-pushy-pushy salesman we had. So after such a negative experience, i decided to come here. i had purchased a SUV 8 months ago from here and had a great experience. I was skeptical cause Joe and Steve were gone, but once i sat down with Derek and told him what i wanted, told him i wanted the car for the day and surprise my girlfriend with the car without all the pressure cause of what she felt at the other dealership, HE MADE IT HAPPEN. i had the car within 20 minutes of being there and letting her drive the car. She loved it and we leased one. had a bad experience at putting on a key starter (3 days) but after going back to Derek and with the GM's approval they made a negative into a possitive which makes me feel like they genually care about you. Also the service department did bail me out, Giada(i think) and another gentleman due to equiptment error and plain old operator error, leaving thier job and finding us at a gas station, and getting us back on the road again. Great experience leasing the car with Derek and Derek for making things right. I will always return to here More
Best price in the Mid-Atlantic! I searched for a Best price in the Mid-Atlantic! I searched for a pre-owned Highlander Hybrid for about 3 months before finding the vehicle I was looking for at Toyot Best price in the Mid-Atlantic! I searched for a pre-owned Highlander Hybrid for about 3 months before finding the vehicle I was looking for at Toyota of Stamford. After negotiating the price for my Camry Hybrid and settling on a price over the phone for the pre-owned vehicle, I was on my way from Southern New Jersey to Stamford, CT (a 3.5 hours drive) to check out the vehicle. I was a little skeptical, because the pricing was too good to be true. However, the vehicle was exactly as advertised! It was ready to go when I arrived with new tires, new brakes, and clean appearance. No surprises, and I was in out of the dealership in about 2 hours. What first may appear as a negative, is actually a testament to the service provided at Stamford Toyota. Upon returning to New Jersey I had a small problem with the power window in my "new" pre-owned vehicle. However, a visit to my local Toyota dealership and a call to John Lynn and Brian Campbell in Stamford and the vehicle was repaired without any problems and paid for by Stamford Toyota. It's nice to know that even when you're 200 miles away, a dealership is willing to back their product and their reputation. I hope to have this vehicle for several years, but when it is time to part ways with it I'll be sure to call John, Brandon, and Steve again. Thanks gentlemen, I couldn't be happier with the experience I had before, during, and after the sale! More
My wife and I have been shopping around for cars for quite some time and we have to say that Joe has been the nicest and friendliest sales person we've ever dealt with. He has a great personality, had quite some time and we have to say that Joe has been the nicest and friendliest sales person we've ever dealt with. He has a great personality, had alot of patients and explained everything to us. He didn't rush us into buying anything, he made us take our time. He also introduced us to Anthony to go over all the paperwork for the car and he was nice as well. Patient and friendly. Basically, our overall experience was great! More
