David “London” Shapiro will be with Lester Glenn Auto Group for 2 years on March 17th. Yes, I do understand the irony of an Englishman celebrating his two years with the company on St. Patrick’s Day! His customers have described him as “not pushy and very accommodating,” as well as had “a great experience and left with our dream car!” Check out David on DealerRater.com or read on to see his latest review:

“I have never been happier with a car dealer. Great service, honesty, the very best price and oh so friendly! Want a Mazda, go there.” (LStopfer, Jan. 6, 2012)

For about 8 years now, I (Ryan Ruch, Social Media Representative for Lester Glenn Auto Group) have been coaching Special Olympics floor hockey. This fall/winter was no different. The Ocean Knights are a team of high school aged Special Olympics athletes based out of the Toms River, New Jersey area, and the only team from Ocean County at the Special Olympics State Hockey Tournament.

This year’s tournament was held at Richard Stockton College in Pomona, New Jersey. Our 6 wins and one loss record during the regular season moved us up to Division II, against the Mercer Generals and Bergen Wildcats. The Knights played hard and as a team, beating the Generals 6-2 and the Wildcats 9-3. (see tournament results here)

It was very rewarding seeing the smiles on the team’s faces as they received their gold medals. It is something I will always remember. I can’t fully express how proud I am of these outstanding athletes. There is no better feeling than knowing that you were part of something so special.

One of our recent reviews on DealerRater.com was left by such a customer. He met with Chevrolet sales representative, Travis Foster, as well as sales managers Joe Horsfield and Pat Sweeney.

Travis Foster

Joe Horsfield

Pat Sweeney

This is his review:

“To Pat, Joe & Travis

A visit to your dealership for me was a pleasure. You all treated me with respect & did everything i asked for. I may not have not been able to do the deal right now, but it was not because of anyone there. I will be back & in the very near future.
these are a group of fine men to work with.

Thanks,
Al”

Heather McCrum is a great example of how putting the time and dedication into learning as much as possible about the vehicles relates to a happier, more informed customer. See what one reviewer on DealerRater had to say about Lester Glenn Hyundai of Toms River and Heather McCrum:

Today’s highlighted Employee is Bob Reyes, he is one of our Hyundai Sales people.  Here is recent review of him from Dealerrater.com:

Review:
This is a terrific dealership. Whenever I have gone there, every single person met along the way was great. I will send people to this dealership. More specifically, Bob Reyes was great to work with. He is courteous, cheerful, and no nonsense. He is also not a “pressure artist” like other sales associates I have dealt with in the past at other dealerships. I wanted to check out Hyundai for some time and although I went in to buy a Sonata I left with an Elantra Touring. I absolutely love it. It will be a pleasure to come into Lester Glenn for my oil changes and other items along my Hyundai ownership journey! I think I may become a very loyal Hyundai driver. And that is good for Bob Reyes and all of you there are Lester Glenn! Thanks for making my car-buying experience not only painless but actually enjoyable and exciting! Ding! Ding! (Inside joke- go to Lester Glenn, get your own Hyundai and you’ll see!) Sharon

Is there any better way to make a great impression during the holidays than by making an appearance in a brand new car? We here at Lester Glenn Hyundai of Toms River and Lester Glenn Hyundai of Manahawkin say ABSOLUTELY!

From now until the close of business on December 24th, you can tell your friends and family you talked us into giving you TWO CARS for pretty much the price of one. When you purchase a 2012 Hyundai Sonata Limited, you get a 2012 Hyundai Sonata GLS for only $1! It’s that simple. Finance a car through Hyundai, and you will be able to lease a Sonata GLS for $1 a month for 36 months with a 12,000 mile a month allowance.

Not looking for two vehicles? Don’t worry. We still have you covered. Since it is the time of giving, we are making our $5,000 over or back deal even better! Purchase a vehicle with our $5,000 deal, and receive a $1,000 American  Express gift card. You not only get a brand new Lester Glenn Hyundai, but you also can finish your holiday shopping on Lester Glenn.
