I had a great experience buying a new car at Dean team VW of Ballwin! Joel was very knowledgeable and it was surprising how well he knew the difference between vehicle options. The vibe is different here - p of Ballwin! Joel was very knowledgeable and it was surprising how well he knew the difference between vehicle options. The vibe is different here - people float in and out and the sales manager - Steve was also super helpful in getting me to a manageable trade in value and overall deal. These are big purchases so it’s good to have a grasp of the different vehicle types within the state and the team helped me understand what is out there in the STL area regardless of what dealership. Lastly, the relaxed test drive policy helped me take it home and review both with and without the kids running around. Thanks for a great experience, can’t go wrong with this dealership! Thank You Dean Team Subaru of Ballwin! Feeling so fly in our new ride! Okkkkurrrr 🚘😅🫶👑 More
