| - This should really be a 4.5 star review. I've purchased lots of cars from dealers over the years. Some good, some bad. NONE as easy as it was with Hertz. I bought a 2016 Toyota Prius C with just over 20k miles on it. First off, the price was around $2000 lower than book value and it was at least $2500 lower than any other Prius I had looked at on other dealer lots. I knew the price was fixed and it was already the lowest so I went in with the mindset that if I drive the car and like it, I'm going to buy it. The only negoatiation was on my trade. I went in and talked to Allen. We took the car for a drive and I liked it. It was in the shape advertised. Allen and I had a good talk during the process and I enjoyed my time there surprisingly. It was so low stress compared to when we bought a car for my wife in January of 2016. That's an entirely differenc story, and a frustrating one.
ANYWAY, admittedly my trade wasn't worth much so when the finance/sales manager made me the offer, I took it. I was up front with him about the repairs needed to my trade and I told him what KBB had calculated for my trade and we were within $100 when he calculated the KBB trade value. He then told me he had to go by the auction value which was a few hundred less because he couldn't sell a car older than 2007 on his lot. Makes sense and I appreciate him being up front with me on this valuation.
So really, the only other issue was the financing. I had pre-approved through Capital One Auto Finance, which is the way to go people! They have set maximum prices for what I can be charged for dealer fees and I was able to get a 100,000 mile 7 year bumper to bumper warranty for almost $800 less than what they would've charged. I don't usually believe in extended warranties but there are two things I do not fully trust on todays cars, hybrid electrical systems and the CVT transmissions. That's another story but I figured one repair to either of these systems in the next 7 years will more than pay for the cost of the warranty.
The only reason I can't give a 5 star rating is because they only had one key/fob for the car. To get another one cut and programmed requires a Toyota dealer to do it and it's almost $300.
So yes, I would definitely purchase another car from these guys. It was an easy and low stress experience. As another reviewer mentioned, definitely do your research on what cars on the lot you are interested in, it's a packed full lot and when I was there on a Friday afternoon it was CRAZY busy.
