Jim went o My experience at Van Bortel was a very extraordinary one. Our salesman, Jim Bertino was wonderful. He never once made us feel pressured. Jim went out of his way to get us the cars that we wanted to test drive. He is very knowledgeable and answered all of our questions. There was great communication after we ordered our Outback. We never had to wonder when our vehicle was going to arrive. When we came in to pick up our vehicle, Nichole Locke was so helpful and knowledgeable as well. Sherry Guest showed us all of our interior and exterior features on our Outback. It was truly a wonderful experience and I would highly recommend Van Bortel Subaru to all of my friends and family.

Previously, we'd never bought more than one car from any dealer. The entire VanBortel team is totally customer-focused which makes the buying experience stress-free. The showroom is immaculate with numerous amenities, and the staff is neatly dressed and well-groomed. We recently survived a roll-over accident in which our almost new Forester was totaled and, as the Subaru ad says, "We walked away." The emergency responders told us if we'd been driving anything but a Subaru, we probably wouldn't have survived, let alone escaped with only very minor injuries...yet another reason we keep returning to VanBortel; their product is the best! When we went to buy a replacement vehicle, the employees were more focused on our well-being than on selling us another car. Our only "complaint" is that one of the used cars we identified on-line had been sold. Fortunately, we found several others which were available. Our salesperson, Jim Pennell, put a hold on them and had them ready for us to test-drive when we arrived. Thanks, Jim! More

It has been a pleasure to work with such a professional organization. Bob Israel More
Integrity This is a low pressure sales environment geared towards service rather than pushing product.

The day I received a phone call alerting me that my Outback came in, I received a second call with a bad news-good news ring to it. The bad news was that there was a mistake on my order. The Outback came in with the Navigation Moonroof + Eyesight Assist, etc. option, which we had not ordered. This has a MSRP tag of $3,490. The good news: it was Subaru's mistake, so we got it au gratis. More

But it all started with a knowledgeable and patient salesman, James Bertino. James helped me from the moment we walked through the door and requested to test ride a vehicle. From there we went other places and came back and James helped us, talking us through different phases. James answered my emails and phone calls. Another test ride, more talk about the vehicle. We had lots of questions, hadn't purchased a new car in over ten years. We have our new car and are very happy with it. I never realized how important a part the salesman plays in the car buying decision. Thank you James for making our experience stress-free. More
Finally a dealership that gets it! I am so over the moon about my experience at Van Bortel Subaru.

I have shopped around on and off for a while now, but I just couldn't stand the way I was being treated at most places. This was the 1st place where the minute I set foot on the lot I was treated with respect and patience. Buying a car is a big deal and is very expensive so it was important to me to be sure I was buying the right one. In other places I felt rushed into a decision and worse yet, I felt pushed into vehicles that I was not sure about. At Van Bortel my sales associate, Jim, was everything I could have hoped for. He let me try different things, he ran numbers on my top two and gave me the privacy and time to make my decision. After I committed I called about accessories and he had them all set when I picked up the vehicle. In the week following, several members of the Van Bortel team followed up with me. I highly recommend them and will never go elsewhere again! More
