Born in Trinidad. Built in Brooklyn. Here for you.
I'm Rishi — I came to America on July 4th, 1974, and grew up loving every minute of Brooklyn's energy. In 1996 I moved to Florida and found my calling in the car business. Over 25 years later (and 18 of them right here at Coastal Hyundai), my mission hasn't changed: treat every customer like family, keep things honest, and never apply pressure.
For 18 years running I've averaged around 300 cars a year — that's more than 5,000 Florida families in the driver's seat. Today I'm selling to the kids (and even the grandkids) of the people who bought their first car from me. That's the real proof: they keep coming back, and they keep bringing their families.
Family is everything to me. I've been married over 30 years, and after surviving stage four cancer a few years back, I'm living the dream with gratitude and a renewed fight. When you work with me, you're not just buying a car — you're gaining a lifelong automotive partner. God bless America.

"From first call to delivery, Rishi was incredible. He found us the exact GV80 we wanted at the price we needed."
"Great experience at dealership. Working with Rishi was so easy. He was very knowledgeable and relaxed in nature; Respectful of my time and did not try to push for a sale. Went in for a pre-owned vehicle and ended up with a brand new one. Will definitely recommend working with Rishi and SPIKE (mgr)."
"I have purchased 3 cars from Coastal Hyundai, one used and two new, and have always received excellent customer service. Rishi has sold me my last two brand new cars and is a great salesman. He doesn't pressure you and gives you answers to all your questions. I have recommended him to my friends. Buy your next car at Coastal Hyundai and you won't be disappointed."
It means the world to me if you'd leave a quick Google review — it helps other Florida drivers find me so I can help them with their car journey too. — Rishi
