Quick and efficient. The way all car dealerships should be. From Sales, to Finance. 10 Star Rating. Best Kia dealer in the area. My wife and I had a terrible experience at another Kia dealership in the are be. From Sales, to Finance. 10 Star Rating. Best Kia dealer in the area. My wife and I had a terrible experience at another Kia dealership in the area that I have tried to deal with 4 times in my life and countless hours for the most basic things. The sales and service departments were extremely sloppy. But Paramount Kia, Tim, and Colton were 10 star, A1, perfect. There’s only two dealerships I will ever purchase from and Paramount Kia is one of them. My wife is happy, my kids are safe, and I’m happy. If Paramount Kia isn’t the number one dealership in the country, they need to be. Hats off to you fellas!!!! More
