I'm moving up north and the car I was driving wasn't going to help me much for the winter. I came in for tires and our family at Executive Kia actually found a way to put me in a brand new Kia Seltos! Mike and Ouafaa did everything in their power and then some to really help us out yet again and we are forever grateful. And now I'm much more confident getting around up north this winter ❤️

This is my 2nd time working with Ouaffa. She is amazing! She was efficient with my time ensuring I was not sitting at that dealership for too long. She has the best personality! Always woman friendly. She was always available for questions even after hours through text message. She answered promptly. I feel she really went out of her way to ensure my satisfaction with her and the dealership. I would highly recommend working with her and executive kia. She made sure we were choosing the right model to meet our needs and budget. She made what sometimes can be a daunting experience and exceptional and easy one.

We just purchased a 2025 certified preowned Kia Sorento from Executive Kia, and I have to say it was the most pleasant car buying experience I've ever had in my 64 years! We worked with Ouaffa (pronounced "Waffa"), and she was great! Pleasant, knowledgeable and absolutely no pressure. Everyone we interacted with at Executive Kia was nice, and professional. We had to drive 45 minutes to get to Wallingford, but it was worth the trip. A great car buying experience!

My experience at Executive Kia was nothing short of exceptional, thanks to the incredible service provided by Wafa. From the moment my mom and I walked in, Wafa greeted us with warmth and an eagerness to understand our needs, making us feel completely at ease. As first-time leasers, we were initially overwhelmed, but Wafa, alongside Mike, meticulously explained the leasing process from start to finish, ensuring we were well-informed and comfortable with our decision. Their professionalism, patience, and genuine care transformed what could have been a daunting experience into an exciting journey. And the cherry on top? The Kia EV6 we leased is absolutely amazing, exceeding our expectations in every way. Wafa's dedication and expertise not only helped us find the perfect car but also made us feel valued and respected throughout the entire process. I cannot recommend Wafa and the team at Executive Kia highly enough for anyone looking to lease a vehicle.

I'm moving up north and the car I was driving wasn't going to help me much for the winter. I came in for tires and our family at Executive Kia actually found a way to put me in a brand new Kia Seltos! Mike and Ouafaa did everything in their power and then some to really help us out yet again and we are forever grateful. And now I'm much more confident getting around up north this winter ❤️

When people talk about buying a car, they usually talk

When people talk about buying a car, they usually talk about the vehicle. For me, this journey was about something much bigger—it was about hope, compassion, perseverance, and being given another chance. Over the past several years, life tested me in ways I never imagined. Health challenges, unexpected job losses, and financial hardships affected my credit and made what should have been a simple purchase feel almost impossible. My credit score reflected some of the hardest chapters of my life, but it never reflected my character, my determination, or my willingness to rebuild. Despite everything, I never stopped trying. I worked hard to pay down my previous auto loan until I owed only $233, traded in my faithful “Old Betsy” for $500, and prayed that somehow the right opportunity would come along. That opportunity came through Executive Kia in Wallingford. From the very beginning, Ouafaa treated me with genuine kindness, compassion, patience, and respect. She never made me feel judged or defined by my past. Instead, she reminded me that I was more than a credit score. She worked tirelessly behind the scenes, communicated with lenders, explored every possible option, and never gave up on me. She even came in on her day off to personally meet me at the dealership and make sure everything went smoothly. That level of dedication and selflessness is something I will never forget. Ouafaa didn’t just help me buy a car; she helped turn a difficult chapter into a new beginning. When I learned that Capital One Auto Finance approved my application, I was overwhelmed with gratitude. Thanks to Ouafaa, the incredible team at Executive Kia, and Capital One Auto Finance, I’m proudly driving my brand-new 2026 Kia K4 LXS. This wasn’t just a car purchase—it was a second chance, a fresh start, and proof that kindness, compassion, faith, and someone believing in you can truly change a life. To Ouafaa and the entire Executive Kia team: thank you for treating me with dignity, patience, and genuine care. Your professionalism and dedication transformed what could have been a stressful experience into one of the most meaningful milestones of my life. I will never forget your kindness or the way you made me feel throughout this journey. Thank you for believing in me when I needed it most. From the bottom of my heart, thank you. — Christine Polanco 🙏🏽💚

I honestly can’t say enough good things about Ouafaa.

I honestly can’t say enough good things about Ouafaa. I brought my 83-year-old mom in to buy her very first brand-new car, and Ouafaa made the whole experience feel easy and stress-free from start to finish. She was so patient with us and really took her time showing different options that worked within my mom’s budget. What stood out most was how much care she put into making sure my mom felt comfortable and confident every step of the way. She even sat right in the car with her and walked through all the features so that when my mom drove off, she felt completely at ease. My mom was thrilled, and honestly, so was I. It didn’t feel like a typical dealership experience at all. It felt personal, like we were working with someone we already knew and trusted. I’ll recommend Ouafaa again and again. The reason I keep coming back is because of her. She truly goes above and beyond, and you can tell she cares about people, not just the sale. This was a really special moment for my mom, and Ouafaa helped make it unforgettable.

Always woman friendly. She was always available for questions even after hours through text message. She answered promptly. I feel she really went out of her way to ensure my satisfaction with her and the dealership. I would highly recommend working with her and executive kia. She made sure we were choosing the right model to meet our needs and budget. She made what sometimes can be a daunting experience and exceptional and easy one.

I have leased and/or purchased 4 Kias over the years, from a Cadenza to a Kia Sportage which I was leasing and have now purchased. My experience with Executive Kia has been excellent. The vehicle is just what I need for coming and going to work and it has AWD which is a big help during winter. I have identified all the people with whom I have contact and each and every one has been knowledgeable, helpful and gets the job done. My latest meeting was with Cristian Hernandez helped me close out issues work with paperwork associated with the purchase of Kia and obtained DMV documents to get me on the road. Executive Kia is a great outfit, and I wish them continued success.

My experience at Executive Kia was nothing short of exceptional, thanks to the incredible service provided by Wafa. From the moment my mom and I walked in, Wafa greeted us with warmth and an eagerness to understand our needs, making us feel completely at ease. As first-time leasers, we were initially overwhelmed, but Wafa, alongside Mike, meticulously explained the leasing process from start to finish, ensuring we were well-informed and comfortable with our decision. Their professionalism, patience, and genuine care transformed what could have been a daunting experience into an exciting journey. And the cherry on top? The Kia EV6 we leased is absolutely amazing, exceeding our expectations in every way. Wafa's dedication and expertise not only helped us find the perfect car but also made us feel valued and respected throughout the entire process. I cannot recommend Wafa and the team at Executive Kia highly enough for anyone looking to lease a vehicle.

When people talk about buying a car, they usually talk

When people talk about buying a car, they usually talk about the vehicle. For me, this journey was about something much bigger—it was about hope, compassion, perseverance, and being given another chance. Over the past several years, life tested me in ways I never imagined. Health challenges, unexpected job losses, and financial hardships affected my credit and made what should have been a simple purchase feel almost impossible. My credit score reflected some of the hardest chapters of my life, but it never reflected my character, my determination, or my willingness to rebuild. Despite everything, I never stopped trying. I worked hard to pay down my previous auto loan until I owed only $233, traded in my faithful “Old Betsy” for $500, and prayed that somehow the right opportunity would come along. That opportunity came through Executive Kia in Wallingford. From the very beginning, Ouafaa treated me with genuine kindness, compassion, patience, and respect. She never made me feel judged or defined by my past. Instead, she reminded me that I was more than a credit score. She worked tirelessly behind the scenes, communicated with lenders, explored every possible option, and never gave up on me. She even came in on her day off to personally meet me at the dealership and make sure everything went smoothly. That level of dedication and selflessness is something I will never forget. Ouafaa didn’t just help me buy a car; she helped turn a difficult chapter into a new beginning. When I learned that Capital One Auto Finance approved my application, I was overwhelmed with gratitude. Thanks to Ouafaa, the incredible team at Executive Kia, and Capital One Auto Finance, I’m proudly driving my brand-new 2026 Kia K4 LXS. This wasn’t just a car purchase—it was a second chance, a fresh start, and proof that kindness, compassion, faith, and someone believing in you can truly change a life. To Ouafaa and the entire Executive Kia team: thank you for treating me with dignity, patience, and genuine care. Your professionalism and dedication transformed what could have been a stressful experience into one of the most meaningful milestones of my life. I will never forget your kindness or the way you made me feel throughout this journey. Thank you for believing in me when I needed it most. From the bottom of my heart, thank you. — Christine Polanco 🙏🏽💚

I honestly can’t say enough good things about Ouafaa.

I honestly can’t say enough good things about Ouafaa. I brought my 83-year-old mom in to buy her very first brand-new car, and Ouafaa made the whole experience feel easy and stress-free from start to finish. She was so patient with us and really took her time showing different options that worked within my mom’s budget. What stood out most was how much care she put into making sure my mom felt comfortable and confident every step of the way. She even sat right in the car with her and walked through all the features so that when my mom drove off, she felt completely at ease. My mom was thrilled, and honestly, so was I. It didn’t feel like a typical dealership experience at all. It felt personal, like we were working with someone we already knew and trusted. I’ll recommend Ouafaa again and again. The reason I keep coming back is because of her. She truly goes above and beyond, and you can tell she cares about people, not just the sale. This was a really special moment for my mom, and Ouafaa helped make it unforgettable.

My experience at Executive Kia was nothing short of exceptional, thanks to the incredible service provided by Wafa. From the moment my mom and I walked in, Wafa greeted us with warmth and an eagerness to understand our needs, making us feel completely at ease. As first-time leasers, we were initially overwhelmed, but Wafa, alongside Mike, meticulously explained the leasing process from start to finish, ensuring we were well-informed and comfortable with our decision. Their professionalism, patience, and genuine care transformed what could have been a daunting experience into an exciting journey. And the cherry on top? The Kia EV6 we leased is absolutely amazing, exceeding our expectations in every way. Wafa's dedication and expertise not only helped us find the perfect car but also made us feel valued and respected throughout the entire process. I cannot recommend Wafa and the team at Executive Kia highly enough for anyone looking to lease a vehicle.

When people talk about buying a car, they usually talk

When people talk about buying a car, they usually talk about the vehicle. For me, this journey was about something much bigger—it was about hope, compassion, perseverance, and being given another chance. Over the past several years, life tested me in ways I never imagined. Health challenges, unexpected job losses, and financial hardships affected my credit and made what should have been a simple purchase feel almost impossible. My credit score reflected some of the hardest chapters of my life, but it never reflected my character, my determination, or my willingness to rebuild. Despite everything, I never stopped trying. I worked hard to pay down my previous auto loan until I owed only $233, traded in my faithful “Old Betsy” for $500, and prayed that somehow the right opportunity would come along. That opportunity came through Executive Kia in Wallingford. From the very beginning, Ouafaa treated me with genuine kindness, compassion, patience, and respect. She never made me feel judged or defined by my past. Instead, she reminded me that I was more than a credit score. She worked tirelessly behind the scenes, communicated with lenders, explored every possible option, and never gave up on me. She even came in on her day off to personally meet me at the dealership and make sure everything went smoothly. That level of dedication and selflessness is something I will never forget. Ouafaa didn’t just help me buy a car; she helped turn a difficult chapter into a new beginning. When I learned that Capital One Auto Finance approved my application, I was overwhelmed with gratitude. Thanks to Ouafaa, the incredible team at Executive Kia, and Capital One Auto Finance, I’m proudly driving my brand-new 2026 Kia K4 LXS. This wasn’t just a car purchase—it was a second chance, a fresh start, and proof that kindness, compassion, faith, and someone believing in you can truly change a life. To Ouafaa and the entire Executive Kia team: thank you for treating me with dignity, patience, and genuine care. Your professionalism and dedication transformed what could have been a stressful experience into one of the most meaningful milestones of my life. I will never forget your kindness or the way you made me feel throughout this journey. Thank you for believing in me when I needed it most. From the bottom of my heart, thank you. — Christine Polanco 🙏🏽💚

I honestly can’t say enough good things about Ouafaa.

I honestly can’t say enough good things about Ouafaa. I brought my 83-year-old mom in to buy her very first brand-new car, and Ouafaa made the whole experience feel easy and stress-free from start to finish. She was so patient with us and really took her time showing different options that worked within my mom’s budget. What stood out most was how much care she put into making sure my mom felt comfortable and confident every step of the way. She even sat right in the car with her and walked through all the features so that when my mom drove off, she felt completely at ease. My mom was thrilled, and honestly, so was I. It didn’t feel like a typical dealership experience at all. It felt personal, like we were working with someone we already knew and trusted. I’ll recommend Ouafaa again and again. The reason I keep coming back is because of her. She truly goes above and beyond, and you can tell she cares about people, not just the sale. This was a really special moment for my mom, and Ouafaa helped make it unforgettable.

I'm moving up north and the car I was driving wasn't going to help me much for the winter. I came in for tires and our family at Executive Kia actually found a way to put me in a brand new Kia Seltos! Mike and Ouafaa did everything in their power and then some to really help us out yet again and we are forever grateful. And now I'm much more confident getting around up north this winter ❤️

This is my 2nd time working with Ouaffa.

This is my 2nd time working with Ouaffa. She is amazing! She was efficient with my time ensuring I was not sitting at that dealership for too long. She has the best personality! Always woman friendly. She was always available for questions even after hours through text message. She answered promptly. I feel she really went out of her way to ensure my satisfaction with her and the dealership. I would highly recommend working with her and executive kia. She made sure we were choosing the right model to meet our needs and budget. She made what sometimes can be a daunting experience and exceptional and easy one.

We just purchased a 2025 certified preowned Kia Sorento from Executive Kia, and I have to say it was the most pleasant car buying experience I've ever had in my 64 years! We worked with Ouaffa (pronounced "Waffa"), and she was great! Pleasant, knowledgeable and absolutely no pressure. Everyone we interacted with at Executive Kia was nice, and professional. We had to drive 45 minutes to get to Wallingford, but it was worth the trip. A great car buying experience!

I have identified all the people with whom I have contact and each and every one has been knowledgeable, helpful and gets the job done.

My experience at Executive Kia was nothing short of exceptional, thanks to the incredible service provided by Wafa. From the moment my mom and I walked in, Wafa greeted us with warmth and an eagerness to understand our needs, making us feel completely at ease. As first-time leasers, we were initially overwhelmed, but Wafa, alongside Mike, meticulously explained the leasing process from start to finish, ensuring we were well-informed and comfortable with our decision. Their professionalism, patience, and genuine care transformed what could have been a daunting experience into an exciting journey. And the cherry on top? The Kia EV6 we leased is absolutely amazing, exceeding our expectations in every way. Wafa's dedication and expertise not only helped us find the perfect car but also made us feel valued and respected throughout the entire process. I cannot recommend Wafa and the team at Executive Kia highly enough for anyone looking to lease a vehicle.

I'm moving up north and the car I was driving wasn't going to help me much for the winter. I came in for tires and our family at Executive Kia actually found a way to put me in a brand new Kia Seltos! Mike and Ouafaa did everything in their power and then some to really help us out yet again and we are forever grateful. And now I'm much more confident getting around up north this winter ❤️

When people talk about buying a car, they usually talk

When people talk about buying a car, they usually talk about the vehicle. For me, this journey was about something much bigger—it was about hope, compassion, perseverance, and being given another chance. Over the past several years, life tested me in ways I never imagined. Health challenges, unexpected job losses, and financial hardships affected my credit and made what should have been a simple purchase feel almost impossible. My credit score reflected some of the hardest chapters of my life, but it never reflected my character, my determination, or my willingness to rebuild. Despite everything, I never stopped trying. I worked hard to pay down my previous auto loan until I owed only $233, traded in my faithful “Old Betsy” for $500, and prayed that somehow the right opportunity would come along. That opportunity came through Executive Kia in Wallingford. From the very beginning, Ouafaa treated me with genuine kindness, compassion, patience, and respect. She never made me feel judged or defined by my past. Instead, she reminded me that I was more than a credit score. She worked tirelessly behind the scenes, communicated with lenders, explored every possible option, and never gave up on me. She even came in on her day off to personally meet me at the dealership and make sure everything went smoothly. That level of dedication and selflessness is something I will never forget. Ouafaa didn’t just help me buy a car; she helped turn a difficult chapter into a new beginning. When I learned that Capital One Auto Finance approved my application, I was overwhelmed with gratitude. Thanks to Ouafaa, the incredible team at Executive Kia, and Capital One Auto Finance, I’m proudly driving my brand-new 2026 Kia K4 LXS. This wasn’t just a car purchase—it was a second chance, a fresh start, and proof that kindness, compassion, faith, and someone believing in you can truly change a life. To Ouafaa and the entire Executive Kia team: thank you for treating me with dignity, patience, and genuine care. Your professionalism and dedication transformed what could have been a stressful experience into one of the most meaningful milestones of my life. I will never forget your kindness or the way you made me feel throughout this journey. Thank you for believing in me when I needed it most. From the bottom of my heart, thank you. — Christine Polanco 🙏🏽💚

I honestly can’t say enough good things about Ouafaa.

I honestly can’t say enough good things about Ouafaa. I brought my 83-year-old mom in to buy her very first brand-new car, and Ouafaa made the whole experience feel easy and stress-free from start to finish. She was so patient with us and really took her time showing different options that worked within my mom’s budget. What stood out most was how much care she put into making sure my mom felt comfortable and confident every step of the way. She even sat right in the car with her and walked through all the features so that when my mom drove off, she felt completely at ease. My mom was thrilled, and honestly, so was I. It didn’t feel like a typical dealership experience at all. It felt personal, like we were working with someone we already knew and trusted. I’ll recommend Ouafaa again and again. The reason I keep coming back is because of her. She truly goes above and beyond, and you can tell she cares about people, not just the sale. This was a really special moment for my mom, and Ouafaa helped make it unforgettable.

I feel she really went out of her way to ensure my satisfaction with her and the dealership. I would highly recommend working with her and executive kia.

I have leased and/or purchased 4 Kias over the years, from a Cadenza to a Kia Sportage which I was leasing and have now purchased. My experience with Executive Kia has been excellent. The vehicle is just what I need for coming and going to work and it has AWD which is a big help during winter. I have identified all the people with whom I have contact and each and every one has been knowledgeable, helpful and gets the job done. My latest meeting was with Cristian Hernandez helped me close out issues work with paperwork associated with the purchase of Kia and obtained DMV documents to get me on the road. Executive Kia is a great outfit, and I wish them continued success.

My experience at Executive Kia was nothing short of exceptional, thanks to the incredible service provided by Wafa. From the moment my mom and I walked in, Wafa greeted us with warmth and an eagerness to understand our needs, making us feel completely at ease. As first-time leasers, we were initially overwhelmed, but Wafa, alongside Mike, meticulously explained the leasing process from start to finish, ensuring we were well-informed and comfortable with our decision. Their professionalism, patience, and genuine care transformed what could have been a daunting experience into an exciting journey. And the cherry on top? The Kia EV6 we leased is absolutely amazing, exceeding our expectations in every way. Wafa's dedication and expertise not only helped us find the perfect car but also made us feel valued and respected throughout the entire process. I cannot recommend Wafa and the team at Executive Kia highly enough for anyone looking to lease a vehicle.

When people talk about buying a car, they usually talk

When people talk about buying a car, they usually talk about the vehicle. For me, this journey was about something much bigger—it was about hope, compassion, perseverance, and being given another chance. Over the past several years, life tested me in ways I never imagined. Health challenges, unexpected job losses, and financial hardships affected my credit and made what should have been a simple purchase feel almost impossible. My credit score reflected some of the hardest chapters of my life, but it never reflected my character, my determination, or my willingness to rebuild. Despite everything, I never stopped trying. I worked hard to pay down my previous auto loan until I owed only $233, traded in my faithful “Old Betsy” for $500, and prayed that somehow the right opportunity would come along. That opportunity came through Executive Kia in Wallingford. From the very beginning, Ouafaa treated me with genuine kindness, compassion, patience, and respect. She never made me feel judged or defined by my past. Instead, she reminded me that I was more than a credit score. She worked tirelessly behind the scenes, communicated with lenders, explored every possible option, and never gave up on me. She even came in on her day off to personally meet me at the dealership and make sure everything went smoothly. That level of dedication and selflessness is something I will never forget. Ouafaa didn’t just help me buy a car; she helped turn a difficult chapter into a new beginning. When I learned that Capital One Auto Finance approved my application, I was overwhelmed with gratitude. Thanks to Ouafaa, the incredible team at Executive Kia, and Capital One Auto Finance, I’m proudly driving my brand-new 2026 Kia K4 LXS. This wasn’t just a car purchase—it was a second chance, a fresh start, and proof that kindness, compassion, faith, and someone believing in you can truly change a life. To Ouafaa and the entire Executive Kia team: thank you for treating me with dignity, patience, and genuine care. Your professionalism and dedication transformed what could have been a stressful experience into one of the most meaningful milestones of my life. I will never forget your kindness or the way you made me feel throughout this journey. Thank you for believing in me when I needed it most. From the bottom of my heart, thank you. — Christine Polanco 🙏🏽💚

I honestly can’t say enough good things about Ouafaa.

I honestly can’t say enough good things about Ouafaa. I brought my 83-year-old mom in to buy her very first brand-new car, and Ouafaa made the whole experience feel easy and stress-free from start to finish. She was so patient with us and really took her time showing different options that worked within my mom’s budget. What stood out most was how much care she put into making sure my mom felt comfortable and confident every step of the way. She even sat right in the car with her and walked through all the features so that when my mom drove off, she felt completely at ease. My mom was thrilled, and honestly, so was I. It didn’t feel like a typical dealership experience at all. It felt personal, like we were working with someone we already knew and trusted. I’ll recommend Ouafaa again and again. The reason I keep coming back is because of her. She truly goes above and beyond, and you can tell she cares about people, not just the sale. This was a really special moment for my mom, and Ouafaa helped make it unforgettable.

    Todd Perry

    Service Specialist

    Todd joined the Executive Kia team in August of 2008 as a Sales Consultant. In the following 3 years, he helped hundreds of customers get into all types of new and used vehicles. During that time, Todd consistently held a top ten sales ranking in his region in new Kia Sales.

    Todd successfully completed and maintained Professional and Master Elite Certification from Kia University. He received a diploma from the Top Gun Academy in Atlanta,GA. He has attended, and continues to attend numerous trainings, workshops,seminars and conferences to improve his industry skills, product knowledge and the latest technologies. He prides himself on studying the everchanging market, both social and cultural trends,in order to better serve today’s customer and their needs.

    In August of 2011, Todd was promoted to Sales Manager to help lead the knowledgable and professional Executive Kia Team to becoming one of the largest volume and highest customer satisfaction Kia dealerships in the region.

    Prior to joining the Executive Kia Team, Todd worked in various fields of construction. A large part of that career was spent as a foreman for a large commercial roofing company where he learned to expand his natural leadership skills,along with two other retail management positions. Todd is honored to be able to lead the Executive Kia Sales Team and feels very privileged to be part of such a great group of people.

    Todd has always had a passion for cars and has been a vehicle enthusiast for as far back as he can remember. Working on cars as well as doing vehicle restorations has provided him with a wealth of knowledge on the inner-workings of cars, coupled with familiarity of all vehicle makes and models, This has given him the experience to serve in a dual role as Used Car Manager for Executive Kia.

    In his free time, Todd is an active outdoorsman. He loves nature, animals and photography. On his time off, you can assume he is hiking or rock climbing with his dog Roscoe in one of the many secluded forests he has discovered over the years in his beautiful, scenic, native state of Connecticut and taking pictures to capture it.

    When asked what the favorite part of his job was, he replied,”I absolutely love and live for being able to hand the keys to a customer who thought their search for a new vehicle was hopeless and impossible and saying congratulations on your new vehicle. On behalf of the entire Executive Kia Team, we sincerely thank you and appreciate your business.”
