Had a great car buying experience at New Motors Subaru in Erie, PA on July 31, 2025. Shane Harney initiated the sale for me and Mike Francis spent hours facilitating the buy. Mike was instrumental in getti Erie, PA on July 31, 2025. Shane Harney initiated the sale for me and Mike Francis spent hours facilitating the buy. Mike was instrumental in getting me up to speed with all the “bells and whistles”! He took time to make sure I knew my way around the instrument panel, pared my IPhone and got me connected with My Subaru! Very patient and unhurried… Michelle Happy did a great job with the financial end of things! General Mgr., Andrew Volant, was the key to getting the numbers where they needed to be. All and all, this buying experience was very easy and relaxed and I would recommend New Motors for anyone interested in buying a Subaru! I’m one happy customer… Jack Pianta More

This was my first experience buying a car at New Motors and had a very positive experience. I live about 60 miles from the dealership so was able to spend a couple days by phone going over a deal with St and had a very positive experience. I live about 60 miles from the dealership so was able to spend a couple days by phone going over a deal with Steve Lobaugh. Very nice and knowledgeable salesman and hope to do business in the future with him. Right off the bat he made me a good offer with little or no hassle. Never liked the days when I had to come back 3-4 times and haggle till I was exhausted. Very good experience and would recommend to anyone looking for a new car. More
