Mark Robinson and Brent Buff were a dream team to work
Mark Robinson and Brent Buff were a dream team to work with on the purchase of my 2026 Hyundai Venue. They were very helpful in offering several options and in the final decision as an out of town buyer. Thanks to them, and Mr. Arrowood in the Paramount Finance Department, I was able to complete the purchase in about 4 hours! I cannot thank them enough for their assistance in making the deal happen.

Brent was awesome to work with from start to finish. He provided a fair trade in allowance for my old truck and made the buying process easy. CJ in finance was great also. I drove 320 miles each way to make the purchase and would do it again and again. I won't shop anywhere else and have been telling all my friends about Paramount and the experience I had. Top notch!

I've purchased a lot of cars over the course of my life
I've purchased a lot of cars over the course of my life and the negotiating process is most always draining and time consuming. Fortunately, my most recent purchase at PARAMOUNT FORD and HYUNDAI of VALDESE, NC was just the Opposite. My salesman, Justin Cantor was very helpful, friendly, and went the extra mile to make sure I was taken care of both before and after the sale. I wanted to leave a review here to let everyone know that he is not only a Great salesman, but also a Good, Kind person. If you're in the market for a new car, truck or suv and are in the area, stop by and ask for "Justin". 5 Stars 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 - Curtis L.

This dealership is located in my hometown of Valdese.
This dealership is located in my hometown of Valdese. It makes me proud to have such a known and respected business close by. As I have driven by over the years, I am amazed at its growth and it continues today! Brent Buff was my salesman. From the first inquiry, he put me at ease with his pleasant personality and calm demeanor. Not once did I feel pressured or made to feel my questions were not important. He made sure before I left the dealership in my new vehicle that I was happy and knew I could contact him with any concerns in the future. I would highly recommend Brent. He treated me as if he had known me for years! My other encounter was with Russell Childers, though brief, it was very beneficial! He really helped me seal the deal, making sure I got the best price for my trade-in and authorizing the delivery of my new vehicle from another dealership. I left Paramount Ford feeling like I had made the right decisions because they helped me in such a kind manner.

We were just looking around maybe thinking about trading
We were just looking around maybe thinking about trading but weren't sure. Doug came out and he was a great salesperson. He went the extra mile showing us different cars. Then when we decided on one he went the extra mile to get us what we wanted price wise. Not many people go that extra mile to accommodate a person. But we left with our new car and was happy with our transaction. Everyone we delt with was very nice and helpful. This was our second time trading with this company and would probably go again. Thank you Doug and Christopher from the finance department for being helpful also.

While waiting for an oil change we looked at cars to get a local high gas mileage vehicle. Doug showed us several models and their incentives and we selected the best value and most fun to drive sedan: Hyundai Elantra Hybrid. Sale and delivery were simple and quick.

I wasn’t informed of several big scratches on vehicle before arriving, didn’t find out until I drove 6 hrs to sign paperwork, manager also informed me that he could get me the best bank rate 🙄. It was at least 2 points higher than I was expecting. Finance guy had a attitude after I told him I declined any extra warranty, needless to say I wouldn’t buy anything from them again, although our salesperson Brandi was nice to deal with.

Excellent purchase experience; Michael and the team at Paramount are top notch and made this purchase the most hassle free auto buying event I could have hoped for. I am not in the immediate area; no problem my truck was delivered (200 miles away!). Nothing but good things to say about the entire experience and I would DEFINETLY recommend Paramount to someone looking for a hassle free shopping and purchasing experience.

Absolute worst dealership I've ever been to.
Absolute worst dealership I've ever been to. They bait and switch fees on both the car purchase as well as the repairs. I beg of you not to go here so that you don't have to experience what I have. Wait times are horrible, you'll always pay more than what's quoted, and you'll wish you had gone somewhere else. Complained to the dealership last time and they called me and agreed that I had a bad experience and was bait and switched on the repair costs. He said he'd be following up with me in 2 days to see what he could do to adjust it and make it right. Never heard back and called 2-3 times and left messages to no avail. I will never purchase a vehicle here again and I encourage you not to go here for repairs/service either.
