Dealer appreciation thread - thanks Dianne!

[yogadoc]

I got my V from Conicelli Toyota in Conshohocken, PA.
From ordering to delivery, it was the best new car buying experience I have had.
They got the car when they said they would, although other dealers told me that they gave me a fast delivery date just to get a deposit.
There were port added options I didn't ask for, and they didn't even try to charge me for them.
They gave me fair value on my trade.
There was no pressure to spend extra on warrenties, pre-paid maintenence or interior protection nonsense.
Everyone who works there is pleasent to talk to.

Recommended to anyone looking for a Toyota in SE PA.

+1 for Dianne. After waiting a few weeks she was able to find me the Blizzard IV with Solar that I was after. No hassle on the purchase and in and out in about an hour. Wish they were all like this!

Just wanted to put a good word in for Liberty Toyota in Colorado Springs. I found them after talking with a lot of dealers in the Denver area who seemed as sleazy as could be. But Jen the Internet Manager at Liberty was a breath of fresh air - answered my questions directly and honestly (I knew many of the answers already from Prius Chat), and delivered what she promised. The finance guy was a bit long-winded trying to sell warranties but was always pleasant and not too pushy so I have no complaints about him.

My only quibbles were that they were a little disorganized on the delivery paperwork (confused my car with another car that was almost identical) and were sometimes slow to answer emails or return phone calls, typically needing 2-3 days to get back to me. But overall a good sales experience and I would definitely go there again.

This is good to know. I am thinking about using them since they can get me the model I want much sooner than in my region. That is unless we decide to go for the IV. The dealership by where I work has an A+ rating on the BBB page. I could not find one for the Conicelli dealership.

I have complaints about the dealership I used for my last two cars that I posted in the dealers section. They got an F rating by the BBB.

Royal Palm Toyota treated me very well, gave me a fair price (not a dime over MSRP and no dealer fees) and if it wasn't for waiting for the CARS program would have delivered very quickly.. Add to that they offer a LIFETIME POWERTRAIN WARRANTY for free and you just can't go wrong.

Another little detail I've heard from buyers at other dealers is that the carpet mats are Black no matter what car you buy. This is not true, Toyota makes them in dark gray and misty gray as well as black but those are usually special order items. They special ordered matching gray Original Toyota Prius mats for me, at a price below the aftermarket mats I've seen advertised.

My CARS transaction went very smoothly, they called me as soon as the program was available, gave me $200 in scrap value for my old van, and I was out te door in about 2 hours.

Ask for Joe Memoly, the fleet manager or Nick Grosso the internet sales manager. They'll treat you right.

I would like to say a very big thank you to Ann at Bentleys, Warrington.

I test drove the Gen III Prius on Friday and in my many many years of buying cars that is the best test drive I had ever had!
50 minutes just driving the car, anywhere I wanted, so I could take it on roads I knew and fairly judge the car rather than thinking about the route.

Doing the deal back at the dealership was equally straightforward, no pushing this and that, she accepted it went I said 'No Thank You' and moved on to the parts of the deal that were important to me.

Confident that the rest of process will be equally hassle-free, just got to wait until the car turns up now!

Plus, I get a full 24 hour test drive, next week, so I can really show the family what the Gen III is all about, stretch its legs down the motorway, and see what its like at night.

So far, so great. Thanks Ann! Thanks Bentleys!

I bought mine from Grand Blanc Motorcars (Grand Blanc, Michigan) and the salesman was Jim Ray. No tricks, nothing pushed on me, just an easy straight forward transaction. MSRP, no add ons and I asked them to throw in one set of carpeted floor mats and I bought the all weather set for winter and they did with no questions asked.

I would definetely recommend them from the sales experience I had.

Bought GenIII Prius II from earl Stewart Toyota in North Palm Beach.
Most discussion by email.
Worked with Jason Stewart and Jon Gormaly. Both very professional.
Got the car as requested, no add-on.
Paid MSRP, No dealer or other fees.
Not much push for additional warranty from Finance.
Without asking, Gave $150 Scrape Value for CARS program.
Requsted Blu-logic($300) and Tint($130) to be done by dealer.

Very professional, would definately recommend.
