From the moment I walked through the door I could tell this was a different type of car dealership. I met Howard and told him what type of Subaru I was looking for; we spoke about new and used models. he this was a different type of car dealership. I met Howard and told him what type of Subaru I was looking for; we spoke about new and used models. he was extremely knowledgeable and helpful in explaining the benefits on new and used as well as lease or purchase. On the test drive he made sure I experienced exactly what the car was capable of doing and showed me the differences that Subaru has over its competition. Howard is a great salesman because I felt he truly listened to me; he was not just trying to make a sale. I would recommend that if you are buying a Subaru in the tri state area you should buy it from Bill Kolb Jr. and definitely ask for Howard. More
Howard Bonfield greeted me with a big welcome as I stepped into the dealership. He was extremely friendly and I felt right away that he wasn't like the old negative stereotype of a car salesman. He stepped into the dealership. He was extremely friendly and I felt right away that he wasn't like the old negative stereotype of a car salesman. He asked me questions and it was obvious that he was listening to every word (and with my follow-up visit he proved he had been listening because he repeated some of my statements from the first meeting). Howard explained everything in detail, showed me the cars I was interested in and we took a test drive. There was no pressure...it was all very relaxed and comfortable. He gave me a very fair price and I did not feel the need to shop around or look at other brands. After picking up my new 2014 Subaru Legacy and driving it for a few days, I knew I had made the right choice. Howard even called me the next day to ask how I was doing with the new car and if I had any questions or concerns. I am happy to say I had none because I am extremely happy. More

At first I went to a Subaru dealership in CT and almost bought a car until the end when they started to give me the run expirience Howard was great! At first I went to a Subaru dealership in CT and almost bought a car until the end when they started to give me the run around. Howard was very straight forward with everything the pricing, the fees, and the paper work. Bill Kolb Subaru was so clean and all of the employees were so pleasant. I would recommend Howard to everyone looking to buy a new car. He was very knowledgeable and helpful to answering all of my questions. He even took the time when I picked up my car to hook up my bluetooth ,explain the options my car has , and showed me how to use them. Howard was very friendly and made my first buying experience a great one! More
I purchased my 2014 WRX from here after searching at other places. None compared to Bill Kolb's service and price. I had to place an order on the vehicle and it came in much sooner than expected.

I was there this past saturday buying a Legacy and I had a very nice experience buying my first car. I was there with 4 other people and Howard made sure all of us were comfortable. He is a great man to wor a very nice experience buying my first car. I was there with 4 other people and Howard made sure all of us were comfortable. He is a great man to work with, there is no hassle and he is very clear about process. No games. My family greatly appreciated the accommodation of having four chairs at each desk we went to during the process. I was very satisfied with my visit, and Howard's knowledge of everything really helped me out. This is my first subaru so he made it clear to name components that make a subaru a subaru. I am very happy with my purchase and I have already referred 3 people to only buy a suabru at Bill Kolb!!! More
Well, this is our fifth Subaru purchase (new and used) from Bill Kolb Subaru and Gary Mendelsohn in four years. I don't know if it's the fact that every one of the cars has been trouble-free, reliable an from Bill Kolb Subaru and Gary Mendelsohn in four years. I don't know if it's the fact that every one of the cars has been trouble-free, reliable and great performing in all types of weather, or my wife just likes Gary that much. He's always been very straightforward, always crunching numbers right in front with us, and getting us the best value for our trade-in. The service department is very friendly and accommodating. They're always up front with us on what the car needs. They always advise of recommended services, but never push if you decline. We have recommended a number of friends to Bill Kolb Subaru, and they have also had great experiences. I can't even imagine going to another dealership. Bill Kolb and us are pretty much family now.

My husband and I went to the Rockland Home Show and were surprised to find Bill Kolb's Subarus there. Since we were in the market for a new car and Subaru was on top of the list we considered, we stopped to surprised to find Bill Kolb's Subarus there. Since we were in the market for a new car and Subaru was on top of the list we considered, we stopped to try to talk to one of the salesmen about the cars. They were chatting among themselves even though we stood there for over fifteen to twenty minutes and was trying to get their attention. When Holman finally came over he explained the car to us and eased our concerns about transporting my husband's handicap scooter in it. Since we had purchased two cars before from Bill Kolb, we asked if any of the fleet cars were coming in and when Holman told us they were expected at the end of the week and he would call us when they did. We did not hear from him and we thought they didn't arrive because of all the snowstorms we had been having. He finally called us on Tuesday eleven days later and told us they arrived and were going fast. He also advised us quite a few had been sold already and to come in quickly if we were interested. I told him I would come in the next day, but he asked us to wait to Thursday. My husband and I decided if they were going that quickly we would not have a good selection to pick from and decided to find another dealership. When Holman called this morning to find out if we were keeping our appointment I told him how dissatisfied we were so far. He informed me they still had 18 of the original 42 left and we could pick from them. In the past this dealership seemed to value their customers and especially repeat ones. I feel Holman could have notified us when the cars arrived and not days later. The poor customer service at the show along with that makes it a dealership that doesn't value their customers. More
From the very first moment of contact, we knew we were in good hands. Bob and Gary worked in tandem for a seamless experience in leasing our first brand new car together. We could not have been more nervous good hands. Bob and Gary worked in tandem for a seamless experience in leasing our first brand new car together. We could not have been more nervous about the situation, TV and friends stories all lead you to believe that buying a car is a long and difficult time consuming process where you need to know every spec and number before you walk in so you can call a sneaky dealers bluff and pretend to walk out the door to get the lowest price etc etc... Bob and Gary were genuinely nice guys who just wanted to help us get the best deal on the best car. No nonsense, no games, no confusion. They were knowledgable, comforting, and have continued to provide unparalleled support compared to two other dealerships we visited before going to Bill Kolb Jr in Orangeburg. This is our first Subaru and we are not only already decidedly customers for life of the brand, but of this Dealership. Cannot recommend enough. Especially if this is your first time buying a car, there is no other option. More
I was visiting Bill Kolb Jr. Subaru on Saturday after looking at some cars online. First, the dealership has very good price on cars, but no negotiation. But why bother? I was already getting the best de looking at some cars online. First, the dealership has very good price on cars, but no negotiation. But why bother? I was already getting the best deal. I visited other Subaru dealer and spent 5-6 hours, but couldn't even come close to this price. The sales team do not work under commission, they are truly there to help. Howard was my sales rep and he is a great guy to work with. Unlike other car dealers, it was hassle free. They are no drama by giving you unrealistic number at the beginning and try to give you little discount on that to make you feel good (fool you), and talk with Sales manager to finalize the sale. It was straight forward, I had very competitive price on my brand new Subaru BRZ Limited and I didn't have to nego anything. Took out for a short test drive and done. No need for drama and time waste. Highly recommend Howard, he can keep things simple and straight forward. Very friendly and look after you with honesty. It only took me 30~45 mins to get the deal done. Mainly to go over the benefits and warranty. Highly recommended to work with Howard and I will get my next car from him. More
