Bill Kolb Jr. Subaru

Browsing for reliable cars and reputable dealers is especially difficult for a first-time buyer like myself. I visited many dealerships and experienced many kinds of sales pitches, friendly talk, and p especially difficult for a first-time buyer like myself. I visited many dealerships and experienced many kinds of sales pitches, friendly talk, and pressure tactics, all of which I didn't know quite how to handle. My visit to Bill Kolb, Jr. Subaru at first felt like all of the others, and when I was told they don't haggle their pricing, it seemed like that's how it was going to be. On my first visit my intent was to find a used car, but on my budget I later determined that I just couldn't afford financing, used or new. I did experience some pressure on that first day, when they asked if I would put down a sizable deposit on the Impreza that I test-drove after I had said I'd need time to think about how I could afford the financing. That kind of pressure is to be expected. They're trying to sell a product, after all. The difference in this case was, when I politely refused to place a deposit, they did NOT pressure me further, which is more than I can say for every other dealership I visited that same day. After taking the time to review the places I had visited and the cars I test drove, not only did I find myself gravitating to the model of car I wanted--the Subaru Impreza--but I was inclined to return to this dealership because of the sales staff. I may not have been able to afford a used Impreza through financing, but the deal they had offered WAS a fair deal for the kind of car I wanted to buy. Their initial offer was exactly in line with the sticker price. You don't see that everywhere. I returned to the dealership, this time to ask about a lease on a new Impreza, and would that be more in my price range? The answer was yes. From there, Howard set me up with a car and went over all of the details. When it was taking me longer than expected to secure insurance, I was able to extend my pick-up deadline with no penalty, and when I was finally ready to pick up the car, Howard patiently and clearly answered every question I had before I signed the agreement. He went a step further by pairing the Bluetooth in the car with my cell phone and showing me how to use the hands-free calling feature. I even met Bill Kolb, Jr. himself and we had a very pleasant conversation. Bottom line, I know I got a good deal. It's not just about the car--which is a dream to drive--but everything that comes with it, from the extra optional service package to the friendliness and honesty of the staff. If you want to haggle and pay less than a car is worth and get absolutely nothing else in exchange, there are plenty of other dealerships for that. Here you get trustworthy people, a fair initial offer, and a top quality product and service to back it up. Bottom line, I'm glad I found this dealership. More

I went to BK Subaru because they had a large selection of cars. I had visited a subaru dealership in Westchester but the selection was so limited and they didn't have the car i had in mind. Our sales perso cars. I had visited a subaru dealership in Westchester but the selection was so limited and they didn't have the car i had in mind. Our sales person, Ross, was great. He let both my daughter and I test drive the Subaru Legacy premium I was considering purchasing and I loved the no haggle pricing! Although I didn't purchase the car we test drove, I did end up purchasing the higher priced Elite and I love it! I would definitely come back to BK Subaru for another car. More
