I am disappointed overall. My salesman quoted my trade in at 21k. He also told me that I qualified for $500 veteran credit.

The finance manager gave me 19k and no 500 dollar veteran credit because the car had 4k miles on it. I am still waiting on the registration paperwork I paid for 3 weeks ago. More

Pt. Charlotte Kia had the best selection of the model we were looking for, a very low mileage Kia Soul. We'd searched the Internet for dealers from New P Charlotte Kia had the best selection of the model we were looking for, a very low mileage Kia Soul. We'd searched the Internet for dealers from New Port Richey to Punta Gorda, including Tampa and St. Pete, and went there. Also, I'll give a big shout out to James S. for his after sale service. He made sure that we got our second key, which was rumored to have maybe not existed when we picked up the car, and some touch up paint to fix some tiny scratches that we'd spotted after the test drive.

Kia of Port Charlotte has very deceptive practices. I spent time on the internet prior to my visit. For Stock# 7254358 I was given a sale price of $28,584 which clearly stated a $4,676.00 Deal Discount I spent time on the internet prior to my visit. For Stock# 7254358 I was given a sale price of $28,584 which clearly stated a $4,676.00 Deal Discount. Upon arrival I was told I may not qualify for everything in that discount. However, no one could tell me what discounts were included in that number. James and Derek came with a $40,000.00 out the door price for this vehicle. I asked for my keys, they countered with $36,000.00 out the door. We settled on a 35,000.00 out the door though it was not explained to me that to arrive at this price, my trade-in, Veterans and Kia Finance Rebate would be utilized. Given one price for the Car on the internet and discovering another typically is a bait and switch approach. I really should have left once discovering these deceitful practices. The car is great, no remorse in my purchase though I will think twice before dealing with this dealership in the future. I plan on doing a similar review on line so others will not fall for this type of sales approach. More

Given one price for the Car on the internet and discovering another is similar to baiting and switching. The finance manager really had no interest in going over the sale with me. He just wanted me to sign so he could get on his way and not have to explain the overall details of the sale. I really should have left once discovering these deceitful practices. The bottom line according to their internet is that I should have gotten the car out the door right around 32,000.00 versus the 35,026.00. I love the statement on their internet, " The Price you see is the Price you pay! No Markups Or Addendums!". NOT! The car is great, no remorse in my purchase though I will think twice before dealing with this dealership in the future and you should do likewise. More
