The manager Joey was not only kind and talked to me with great respect, even after I bought a car and it had been a while. He helped me immensely and saved me thousands of dollars and a great deal of valuable time with his advice! It was unbelievable! Without him I would be chasing my tail. If you want perfect service, please contact Joey at DriveTime! You will never regret your experience. Not to many times in life does a person happen to help so much and was so smart to bat. Thank you so much Manager Joey!

My daughter purchased a Nissan Altima from drive time, the 6th day the car starts giving her trouble. She needed a new transmission, brakes, rear view mirror came off, had it towed 2 times and today...shes taking it back to Nissan for mounts. Drive time sold her a lemon. And the only help she can get from them is...she must use her warranty she purchased. 2 weeks of frustration...shes taking off from work & towing fees. DO NOT PURCHASE A CAR FROM THEM. Go to carmax, nissan or toyota.

This has been the best car buying experience I have ever experienced. Ken and Joey went above and beyond to put me in the best car I have ever owned. The pricing for what I bought was excellent I cant thank those guys enough for what they did for me. Holding the car for me for a few extra days really showed they have the best customer service around. Thanks alot guys, Ill be recommending you guys for a long time.

Honest feedback:My salesperson Ken was awesome, I needed to replace my car on the one day off I had, and he was amazing, I told him what I needed and he showed me a variety of cars that fit my needs, then I test drove 2 and picked my favorite. I was able to buy it that day, in and out in like 4 hours? Which is great compared to how it’s usually a multi-day event at other dealerships.A couple things about the vehicle itself I do think they should have handled before selling the vehicle though:- The front left tire has low tread and needs replacement- The oil change light came on within the week I bought it. They should have changed the oil.- Didn’t come with a full tank of gas.I do love the car and Ken was awesome.You just usually don’t expect to have to buy a tire, and change the oil the week you buy a new car 🤷🏻‍♂️

I originally had gone to DriveTime on Colonial. But the car I wanted was at the Sanford location. I went out there and was able to take the car for a test drive. When I got back they all worked very efficiently to get everything in order for me to get my car. They were very helpful and efficient. I am so glad I chose DriveTime.

My experience was great all in all.. I guess the irony of it all.. is the persistence.. I at first found it to be a bit much but in the end it was the exact amount of persistence necessary to get me in the vehicle I wanted. I appreciate the time a attention provided to me. I will and have recommended my friends and family to drivetime.

I have a repo, terrible credit, and have been denied numerous times at many places. Ive reached out to maybe 15 dealerships since Jan searching for a car in this inflation period we have in america. Frank not only gave me straight forward financing options, but I ended up having 39 cars to choose from. Also, with gap, anti theft and warranties, it makes the payments worth every penny. I will always use drivetime from now on, thanks you guys! - 2016 kia forte

Review №26

From the minute I walked into the dealership Ken was very helpful I spoke to him on the phone prior to even coming in and he already had literally everything ready for when I actually came to the dealership. This is my first time ever purchasing a car and Ken made the entire process very easy. I’d def recommend buying a car from them because even with my credit blemishes I was still approved by them when everyone else told me no or they wanted an outrageous down payment. Thanks Drivetime and if you’re ever in the market for a car and decide to go there be sure to go see Ken tell them Latifah sent you!!! Thanks Ken you rock!!!!

Do not buy from here! Bought a 2017 Ford Escape, three weeks later transmission is leaking, drive axle cracked, and the mechanics said it was apparent this was an old issue. No help from these guys and no disclosure of the issue. I will update with the exact name of the woman who helped us. Stay away from this place!!!!

Review №49

My experience is from a couple months ago. The salesman was very friendly, but we got sold a vehicle that was overpriced. It was a 2017 Hyundai Veloster with 61K miles. The price was $12,000, but I owed $18,000. $18,000 is far too much for a Veloster. The monthly payments were $510. That is awful. At the time, my credit was not very good, but that does not mean I get monthly payments of half-a-thousand dollars. I would recommend only coming here if you are positive about what car you want and you have high credit.

I had a very professional and quick trip in Drive time. When I pulled up to look around at vehicles I did not get trampled by several employees trying to make a sale. Frank Craven was my sales man and gave me plenty of space to look for what I wanted. Once I found what I was looking for I explained to Frank that I would need time to talk to my wife. He was courteous enough to give me that space and time . His follow up call was professional and not aggressive. I started the process over the phone and finished purchasing my new vehicle in a timely manor. Great location!

Review №65

Was a really fast streamlined process from Start to Finish. I was very skeptical when I filled out the online easy application and it said I was approved. So I called Frank to let him know what vehicle I was interested in. He immediately gave me a payment with a down payment along with other options like warranties and all (Which I highly recommend you take!) Asked me for basic information to verify my income, address and all via email. Once all that was verified, he said he just needed me to come in and test drive, sign some paperwork, and make my down payment. Even at this point I was still skeptical as I had a very recent Voluntary Repo of a second vehicle I had with a low credit score... So I drove out to DriveTime after work and sure enough the vehicle was sitting outside ready and clean. I went inside and he handed me the keys for the test drive. It drove as expected. Came back and signed a couple forms (By this time they already had the temp tag on it and was going through an inspection on the vehicle with my wife). After signing I made my low down payment and he shook my hand and sent me on my way with my new vehicle!!! Literally 30 minutes at the dealer and out the door!!!! Highly recommend this place!!!!

Great ... This is the best experience I have ever had, since I bought my own car back in 1988 !!! If a person dont take the time to go to DRIVETIME theres something wrong with them . The BEST choice ever . Going to get my next vehicle here as well😁💯!!!

Review №72

Went here to buy my first car. After reviewing my contract and consulting with specialists in the automotive industry I learned that drivetime loaded my contract with unnecessary add ons to drive the loan amount higher. Basically they took advantage of my lack of knowledge of the process. This is actually standard process with Drivetime. If you go here beware that they will try to offer you overpriced add ons with the hope of doubling your loan amount. I was paying 34K for a car worth 12K. I am now in the process of getting those add ons removed which will bring my bill down to around 17K. Thats literally half. These people are low level scammers. Be sure of what you sign.

This is my third time purchasing a vehicle from Drive Time, and I will continue to recommend them to everyone. They WILL get you approved when nobody else can! Guaranteed! The staff is extremely helpful and friendly, and theres no unnecessary waiting around while they play games (like most dealerships). Terrance Adams was Amazing and made me feel very welcome and comfortable. Matt was a hoot. He kept me laughing! Hes super funny without even trying! My experience was Incredible as it always has been, and I wouldnt expect anything less than coming from this dealership! I love you Drive Time!

Mr. Craven & Carmen were absolutely amazing! After going to six other dealerships and none of them understanding what I wanted, and kept trying to get me into cars I couldnt afford I lost all hope. Until I stepped into drive time. They greeted me right away, took the time to listen to what I could afford and what vans and SUVs I wanted. Went over every options I had. I finally got my family into the perfect van that I have always hoped for. I give them 5 stars because they went above and beyond for my family and I. I would definitely recommend this drive time to my family and friends.

Ramon was the most amazing salesman Ive ever had the PLEASURE of dealing with. Great personality, upfront, no run arounds. He explained everything in detail and didnt try to force extras or con me into something. I definitely got the car I wanted at an amazing price! Even with my recent credit struggles. Constance was another amazing piece to this team! Everyone in the Sanford, FL location was great. I will DEFINITELY be referring people to Ramon at Drive Time, Sanford!

Richard was extremely professional personable and knowledgeable about every vehicle I looked at and I looked at several. There was no pressure at all and I was made comfortable by Richard right from the start. Overall my whole experience was not the anxious event I thought it would be due entirely to Richards assistance. I will not only recommend Drive Time but definitely Richard in particular. I will finish by saying that everyone I had contact with here was courteous and professionals and beginning with Richards greeting when I walked in the door I was put at ease.

From the beginning, Frank took great care of me. He thoroughly explained all of my options without any pressure. He had (2) cars brought for me from other locations, as I was trying to decide between 3-different models.

My salesman Richard Chilampth was the best. Very knowledgeable, comforting, and caring. Most salesman dont really care what they put you in as long as they get your money, but not Richard I felt that his concern about me getting what I wanted was genuine. So thanks Rich I love my car!!!!! Main points are this was my first time leasing, and the experience was great, I dont feel had, beat out my money and Im am so grateful they took time with me and gave me that first time great experience. Thanks guys!!!!
