These people are the friendliest people in any dealership I have ever bought a car from. They treat you like family. I cannot say enough nice things about this staff. Our salesman Chris was absolutely outstanding in everything he did for us. He took care of us from the moment we walked into the showroom. If you want a KIA, this is the place to go.

Usually, when I walk into a dealership, I don’t have the warm and fuzzies. I just know that there’s a person lurking in every corner ready to pounce. I just know that when I get to the paper work I’m going to get railroaded and I’m going to end up paying twice the price. This was absolutely not even close to my experience with southern motors cdjr in Savannah. I walked out of this place with more than a new truck and new Hornet ..I feel like I gained several new friends in the process. Not ...

Had an outstanding experience purchasing a Dodge Ram last night. Dawson and Payton were very professional and great to deal with. Everyone, including the management and the financial department were the best. Great experience overall, and definitely will return to do business in the future. Highly recommend!

Great car buying experience from start to finish. Second time I’ve bought a vehicle from Step One KIA in Fort Walton Beach. The entire sales team did a great job but would like to highlight Darcy, my sales rep for outstanding customer service and making my car buying experience outstanding.

Walked in to see about purchasing a new truck. After test driving one I fell in love. Carlos (I believe that was his name) helped us and even though we ended up walking away without the truck (for now!) he was excellent! He had great customer service, great conversation, and did not come off as a pushy car salesman. I appreciated his kind demeanor and will 100% go back to him when we are ready to purchase.

I have been buying cars for 44 years. The experience I had with Step One was one of the best. First, there was no pressure exerted at any time. Second, the vehicle I purchased was exactly as it appeared on-line (no hidden surprises). Third, my salesman, Julian Rosado and my business manager, Tamara Metcalf were incredibly professional, yet kind, and worked diligently to put a deal together, which was not an easy one due to the large amount of negative equity in my trade. In the end, they met and exceeded every expectation. I strongly recommend this dealer, salesperson, and business ...

He was also very helpful and answered all my questions! I will most definitely be making the drive back to FWB.when I'm ready to purchase again! I absolutely love my K5! Thanks Kia of FWB!
