Let me begin with, “Thank you, so very, very much”. My daughter has listened to the “Car Pro” radio show for several years, and I decided that when the time came for me to buy the last car I’ll own— I am 86 years young, by the way— it would only be after my daughter decided on a car for me and from a Car Pro certified dealership. And, that is why as of a month ago I’m the proud owner of a 2023 Genesis G70 Sport Prestige Sedan, purchased from the unbelievable team of professionals at Genesis Santa Monica headed by Tammy Weaver! We test drove the G70 at our local Westlake Village Genesis dealership on a Saturday; as it turned out, the car we test drove was the EXACT vehicle my daughter had built on the Genesis website: exact exterior and interior colors, exact additional accessories. But the Westlake Village dealership isn’t Car Pro certified— I told the salesman we were going to the Santa Monica Car Pro certified Genesis dealership the next day, and if I decided to purchase, it would be from there. He was baffled, considering the car I intended to pay cash for was right in front of us, and Santa Monica didn’t have the car in stock. So, off we went the next day to Genesis Santa Monica, where we met with Jaime and Melvin, who greeted us like we were already friends. We took our VIP Certificate, and told them we’d test driven the exact car we wanted in Westlake Village. Jaime asked if we could give him a couple of days to see if his general manager, Tammy Weaver, could casually call the GM at Westlake Village and acquire the car (without giving away it away that it was for me!) as well as give him time to try to locate the G70 we wanted at any other Genesis dealership. As we’ve now come to realize, it’s no surprise Tammy Weaver was able to work her magic with the GM at Westlake Village: she is hands down the friendliest, most professional, kindest, and most amazing person I’ve met in a very, very long time. Just 4 days later, I finalized the paperwork, paid in full for my new Genesis, and feel as though I’ve found 3 very good friends in Tammy, Jaime, and Melvin at Genesis Santa Monica. There’ve been a couple of little details to tweak since my purchase, and Tammy and Jaime have gone waaayyyy above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of! As I mentioned, I’m 86 years young. This is the last car I’ll own. I know I’ll enjoy every minute I’m able to drive it, knowing I have the unparalleled professionals of Tammy and her team at Genesis Santa Monica there for me. I simply can’t thank everyone enough!
