Not having been in a dealership in over 10 years, I kept envisioning the memes of the dodgy car dealer that flood the internet, and I wanted no part of it. Imagine my delight when I arrived at Kia of Stamford to test drive a new Seltos and was welcomed by Steven Kokkinidis, my Sales Consultant. Steven is the antithesis of the shady salesman with whom we are all unhappily familiar. No tricks, no high-pressure tactics, no shell games, no smoke and mirrors; just a terrific personality (he’s an animal lover, so that warmed my heart) and full disclosure. By the time I signed on the dotted line, I wanted to adopt him. Dave Marino, General Sales Manager, was equally delightful. What I feared would be an ordeal turned out to be a wonderful experience due to Steven and Dave. The best part is I have a brand-new Kia Seltos that I not only love, but also am confident will keep me a safe, happy driver for years to come. Thank you, Steven and Dave! More

I have been a customer of Kia for the past three years now. Now that my lease is up, I will not be returning to this specific dealership. Every encounter that I have had with the staff there has been abso now. Now that my lease is up, I will not be returning to this specific dealership. Every encounter that I have had with the staff there has been absolutely horrible. Specifically, I would like to bring attention to the horrible service that the sales personnel has. The people who have "helped" me are rude, very unsympathetic, & made me feel like they did not care about helping me one bit. All they wanted to do was direct me to other people to help me with my car rather than doing their job & attempt to help me themselves. The way they spoke to my mom & I was very short & degrading. Im not sure if it is because we are two women walking into a car dealership, but all I can say is that every experience I have had here was horrific. More

I purchase / lease Kia's for my company Sales representative Steven Kokkinidis is a terrific person. He returns calls promptly, speaks in a language I can easily understand and keeps his wo Sales representative Steven Kokkinidis is a terrific person. He returns calls promptly, speaks in a language I can easily understand and keeps his word. This dealership delivers cars to the customer and did so pre-covid19. They offer a true "Drive & Sign Program", where you pay nothing at closing. Steven and his team couldn't make closing any easier. No hassle, no pressure. I highly recommend this dealership for anyone seeking a Kia . As a Fleet Manager, I now own more than 7 Kia vehicles and have plans to add 5 more in 2021. It might sound silly but, I'm looking forward to working with Steven and his team when the time comes. It's the easiest buying process that I've ever encountered. Steven came to my office with the vehicle already plated. We closed in less than 15 minutes per vehicle. More

No Pressure, Honest Salesman & Smooth Transaction I found a used Ford Explorer online at this dealership and drove up from NJ to see and drive in person. I worked with salesman Steven K. who was frien I found a used Ford Explorer online at this dealership and drove up from NJ to see and drive in person. I worked with salesman Steven K. who was friendly and honest. We were unable to agree on a purchase price and I left the dealership. Days later, after a few email exchanges with Ernesto (Sales Manager) we agreed on a purchase price and I drove back up and closed the deal. I never purchased a vehicle out of state before and had concerns about the registration and inspection but Steven and Ernesto made the whole process go smoothly. I would recommend this dealership and its staff Steven & Ernesto to others in the market for a new or used car. More
