Bank Street Hyundai

We are now the proud owners of a new Hyundai Elantra GT-S – the one with the really cool panoramic sunroof. It’s dazzling white, and the roof is black. It doesn’t look like your typical seniors’ car, but the – the one with the really cool panoramic sunroof. It’s dazzling white, and the roof is black. It doesn’t look like your typical seniors’ car, but then, we’re not typical. It started innocently enough – ‘wouldn’t it be nice to have more cargo space?’ – seemed to dominate the conversation for a while. We already owned an Elantra, and were happy with it, except that we both thought that more room for ‘stuff’ would be nice. We’re thinking about taking a cross-Canada trip, and need room for luggage and one toy poodle. Hmm... So, first we spent hours on the net doing the initial research. Perhaps a cross-over, or maybe a hatchback, would be good? Then we lined up trips to the car dealers. (There are lots of choices around here.) We planned that our final destination would be the dealership where we bought our last car. Over the next couple of days, we test drove a few cars in a few different places. One of us is a fairly petite individual, so the cross-overs were rejected; she felt like an inexperienced bus driver in them. (She likes to be able to see the road in front of the car - this is a good thing!) Next, we investigated the hatchbacks; there were several good ones that might meet our needs. A word here about car salesmen – there’s a look that some guys get in their eyes when they see two ‘mature’ (debateable in one case) females approaching them. You can almost hear them thinking – okay, this should be easy; they won’t know anything much. I hate to stereotype here, but, they are often young, male, and keen to make a sale, which is totally understandable, but, it does not impress us, especially if they don’t give us the respect we deserve. It’s hard for them to disguise their real attitude towards us, no matter how ‘smooth’ they think they are. We get the feeling that some guys just don’t want to negotiate with women. Well, too bad...we are women, hear us roar, (and I think the next part is... in numbers too big to ignore)! We are polite, but there is also a tendency within us to want to chew these guys up and spit them out. The upshot of this – even though we managed to negotiate some pretty good deals – was that we walked away. We went back to our ‘old’ dealership, and decided to ask for the salesman we had dealt with three years ago – Mark Molleken. We liked him the first time around, and remembered him as above-board and fair, and he treated us with respect. We were pleased to learn that, in the interim, our favourite sales person had become a manager, but he remembered us, and still took the time to talk to us – it was like meeting an old friend. He then introduced us to another sales person, Sillin Canegan, whom he felt would give us the level of sales service we were looking for. Good choice! Sillin spent a lot of time listening to us, and didn’t push in any way. She was obviously going to do her best for us. The test car was a GT-S hatchback – it looked and felt good, but that’s not what sold the car. The final sale really came down to the level of customer service – that’s what sold it to us. We, Sillin, and finally, Mark negotiated a deal which was do-able for all concerned. Both Mark and Sillin were so professional. Even when we had to do the boring old paper work, the youthful and charming Christoph Haddad was a pleasure to deal with. All in all, considering how stressful a major purchase can be, the car adventure was a very satisfactory experience. Bravo Mark, Sillin, and Christoph. Hyundai should be proud to have you representing them. I know we’ll be happy with the new car. More

I had a pleasant experience with everyone dealt directly with at Bank Street Hyundai.

My primary Sales person was Tom Jarrett who confirmed the considerable discount being offered on the car that piqued my interest. After him was Ernesto Lorello who did my credit application and made sure I took advantage of all the side perks on offer from Hyundai. Best of all, I got the car with all the add-ons only 2 days after first coming in. More

Omer did his best to explain the many (new to me) features of the Santa Fe. He was patient. He picked us up when our ride to the dealership fell through. I had a long test drive with the car which so features of the Santa Fe. He was patient. He picked us up when our ride to the dealership fell through. I had a long test drive with the car which sold it to me. The extra set of tire rims I ordered should have been available at delivery time, but Omar offered to deliver them to the house. Also it would have been nice if they had assembled the bicycle carrier. Otherwise we were very happy with our treatment. Mark Molloken did a good job closing the sale as I was a unsure as to whether to buy the turbo. i don't know if I got a good deal, but at least I felt as if I did not get a bad deal. That is important to any customer. I did feel that the negotiating process was a bit drawn out. More

The customer service was 2nd to none. We were greeted the moment we entered the dealership with friendly and knowledgeable people. All of our questions were answered and then some. This is our third new car moment we entered the dealership with friendly and knowledgeable people. All of our questions were answered and then some. This is our third new car in 5 years, at the same dealership. Justin was very patient and helpful. He knows how to listen and voice his opinions and recommendations. Well done Justin. Ernesto was a pleasure to deal with. We did kind of throw him for a loop but he stayed focus and patient and managed to keep us satisfied and very happy. We found Ernesto very knowledgeable in what he does and hope we can deal with him again when we decide to purchase our next vehicle from Bank St. Hyundai. Keep up the great work Ernesto. Oh. and hat's off to the sales manager (Amir) who managed to make this deal happen. Overall, our experience with Bank St. Hyundai and there great staff is on the top of my car dealerships to deal with. Thanks again for all your time and patients. Franco and Nicole. More
