I just bought a car from The Car Place in Somers Ct. It is a 2009 Hyundai Sante Fe and I love it! It was a great buying experience. Dave was really down to earth and there was never any high-pressure tactics or false promises like you get from most other places. If you need a quality used car and don't stop here, you are doing yourself a disservice.

We purchased a used car here from Dave, the owner of The Car Place, and so far, I have had no issues with the car. He made the purchase easy and registered the vehicle for us. It's only been about two weeks, but this far, I like the used car. Thanks, Dave, for the good experience!

Bought 3 cars from him over the past 6 years. No junkers here, hence the small amount of cars in his lot because he plays no games and takes his time to find cars of reliability

First, I am writing this review 6 months and 5k miles from my purchase, so as to have an accurate and through review process.

I had a great experience with Dave, et. al.. An independent mechanic reviewed the work he did and it was proper and completed as stated. He replaced all four tires and struts, among other parts, which is often overlooked at other lots. He was pleasant and easy going, I did not feel pressured or button-holed into a sale. I was even able to negotiate a great price. Took a test drive and owned the vehicle an hour later. I love my Hyundai; it was a great replacement for my Honda Accord that was totaled in a deer collision.

I never had to take advantage of the 50/50 warranty so I cannot speak to its veracity. However, it is a limited warranty that doesn't cover everything but many used dealers don't offer any guarantee at all. There is always a risk when purchasing a used car and you should always fully read and understand the contract you are signing. I believe this is the reason why some other reviewers are having issues; they did not read or understand what they signed and expected more than what was offered.

I would definitely recommend purchasing a car from Dave Sarno/The Car Place, Inc.. It should be noted that purchasing a used car always comes with a risk. It is imperative that you fully inspect the vehicle and know what you're looking at. You cannot blame the dealer if you did not do your research (Auto Check report, title reviews, dealer reviews, background check on dealer/business, state sanctions, ect.) or inspect the car thoroughly. Even the best dealer in the world cannot possibly prevent all problems from occurring or ascertain all problems on a vehicle.

I shopped around at several used car dealerships throughout the state before settling on The Car Place. I found that many places had excessive conveyance fees ($200+) as well as aggressive sales tactics. They also sold the cars as is. None of these things are true at The Car Place.

Bottom-line, It's pretty simple: know what you're buying, do through research (not just a 30 second Carfax report or Google search), read the contract fully, negotiate and cross your fingers because it's a used car and you just can't be sure no matter where you buy it but you're improving your odds significantly by going through this dealer. Remember you're saving significant money by not buying a certified pre-owned or new vehicle which comes with guaranteed assurances.
