Loved. loved, loved this car buying experience. I was very fortunate to find the car that I wanted on the Paramount Ford Hyundai Valdese website, and then I was extremely fortunate also to find the bes very fortunate to find the car that I wanted on the Paramount Ford Hyundai Valdese website, and then I was extremely fortunate also to find the best salesman anybody could be lucky to get. Michael Connell made this car shopping and buying experience great. Michael made me feel like a valued customer and far exceeded any other salesman that I have ever dealt with. Buying a car has always been a stressful experience but Michael really made it stress free! I wanted to let everyone at this dealership that I was impressed every step of the way. And I want the general public that may be thinking of buying a new or used car to know this place was a great place to buy a car. Great job Michael! I do appreciate all you did to assure that I was a satisfied customer. I give Michael and this dealership a top rating for being customer friendly and customer focused. More

We bought our first Hyundai Elantra in 2006 from salesman, Michael Connell. Michael treated us with the upmost respect and care. He took the time to find out what we were looking for in a vehicle, salesman, Michael Connell. Michael treated us with the upmost respect and care. He took the time to find out what we were looking for in a vehicle, and answered all of our questions. Michael was friendly, sincere, and patient, which was quite a pleasant change from previous experiences with other car salemen over the years at other dealerships. We did not feel rushed or pressured. After we purchased our vehicle, we took it to this same dealership for all of our service needs. The service technicians always took the time to look over our vehicle and let us know if any part was wearing or needed to be changed, and what scheduled maintenance was due. They never pressured us to perform any work, but always explained what was needed and how much it would cost to fix it, and in some cases offered alternatives to lower the cost. The final cost of any repairs was always within the estimate we were provided, and we were treated as friends throughout the process - never just as a "customer". We know that when we take our car in to Paramount we, and our vehicle, will be taken care of. We also take our old Ford truck in to them for service. After we gave our 2006 Elantra to our daughter, we decided to purchase another car. Paramount Hyundai was our first choice because of our remarkable experience with them. We did look at another make of car similar to an Elantra at another dealership, but were met with that typical “car salesman” routine. That only cemented our decision to once again purchase an Elantra at Paramount Hyundai from Michael Connell. This purchase experience exceeded our previous experiences. The manager was also involved and made sure we received all of the incentives we could towards our new car, and even gave both of us very nice Hyundai key rings! They keep in contact with us, and always thank us for coming to their dealership. I’d say whoever is training these people has hit the “mark”. Thanks Michael Connell, our Service Tech David, and all of the staff and managers at Paramount Hyundai. You guys rock! More

This dealership is far different than the ones I had visited previously. They educate you on the vehicle of interest, explaining everything in detail. Their customer service is the best that I have see visited previously. They educate you on the vehicle of interest, explaining everything in detail.

All the employee that I dealt with were very nice, courteous, and well informed. Cleanup of vehicle was good, but no other work was done to be able to rate the quality of their work. Price was OK, bec courteous, and well informed. Cleanup of vehicle was good, but no other work was done to be able to rate the quality of their work. Price was OK, because everyone always wants a super cheap deal, and I suppose this rate was about like all other dealers. Good experience and would recommend dealership. More
