DReam come true I had been dreaming of owning a Porsche for about 7 years and Mali'a Pennington made my dream come true. Ms. Mali'a didn't treat me like a potential c I had been dreaming of owning a Porsche for about 7 years and Mali'a Pennington made my dream come true. Ms. Mali'a didn't treat me like a potential car buyer, she treated me like a person. She made sure all of my questions were answered and worked really hard to assist me. When my car was ready she met me halfway between San Antonio and Waco to make sure I was satisfied with my purchase. I was blessed to have her as my representative and Dallas Lease Cars should me blessed as well. I have already referred friends to her because the customers are always her priority. Good job and above reproach customer service!! More

If you are a little bit adventurous and aren't so picky that everything has to be exactly the way you want it - you can get great cars at great prices and with none of the hassle of going to a dealership. This is the second vehicle I have purchased from DLR and both experiences were great! I would highly recommend them - everything was easy. More

Chris had a great sense of humor and appreciate for our needs. We did have a little confusion at first over which vehicle we were interested in but that was a comedy of errors on both our parts. We had great laughs, a great time and a great experience. we will be back and we recommend DLR to anyone seeking a great used vehicle. Chris checked the vehicle after we agreed to a price and gave a discount because the front tires needed replacing. More
