Do not recommend. I showed up here to buy a car. I checked on the price before coming. The car is clearly listed at $15,787 on cars.com (see photo). They tried to sell the car for 15,787 plus $3,495 for "features". They are totally shady. Trey and Mike. I had bought a 2018 Accent from Hiley Hyndai in Ft Worth the previous week, and the day after my terrible experience at Vandergriff, I bought the exact same car at another Hyndai dealer in the metroplex (2018 Elantra Value Edition). Apparently Vandergriff has a reputation for these bait and switch tactics and adding to the price of the vehicle for "features" and trying to turn it into a lease purchase with a huge balloon payment. This is how they "do deals". If you buy a car or have bought a car from them, look at your paperwork, you might be quite disappointed when you look line by line. In the last few years I've bought brand new cars from Hiley Mazda and Hyndai, Meador Dodge, Park Place Lexus, Chacon Suzuki, and Van Hyndai. Of these Park Place was by far the best to deal with, then both the Hiley dealers, and Chacon. Meador Dodge is ok, the online price was honored but after the sale they didn't care. Van Hyndai was ok. So it's not as if I'm not aware of the new car buying experience, that said, I'll never go to another Vandergriff dealership again.

I bought the same car, the next day. I paid $16,800 for it, but that was the advertised price. $15,787 at Vandergriff was actually $19,282 plus.

Anyway there's a lot more. Best thing to say is buyer beware. Buy at your own risk from this place. They make tote the note places look good.
