Average dealer experience

Review of 696 Cars by Katherine Silva · May 17, 2025

3/5

I came in after seeing a sedan that looked promising. The vehicle was clean inside and drove well enough, but I noticed worn tires and a few cosmetic issues that were hard to see in the photos. The staff was friendly and answered most of my questions, although I had to ask more than once for the vehicle history and financing breakdown. We eventually reached terms I could live with, but I spent much longer at the dealership than planned. Nothing about the visit was terrible, and I’m reasonably satisfied with the car so far. Still, better preparation and clearer communication about the condition and fees would have made the experience much easier.

    Good car, long wait

    I’m happy with the crossover I bought and everyone treated me well. The only drawback was waiting nearly an hour for the paperwork to get started, but the rest of the process was smooth.

    Friendly and straightforward

    I bought a used sedan here and had a really positive experience. The staff listened to my budget, showed me options that actually fit it, and never pushed me toward something more expensive. My car was cleaned up nicely before pickup, and the paperwork was explained clearly. I’d gladly shop here again.

    Solid overall

    I’m pleased with my car, but the paperwork took longer than necessary.

    Great buying experience

    I found the SUV I wanted, received a fair trade offer, and drove home without any unnecessary pressure or hassle.
