Fitzgerald Subaru Clearwater

Honest, reliable,forthright My buying experience was nothing but excellent from start to finish. The used vehicle I bought was all that was advertised,the price was as stated and My buying experience was nothing but excellent from start to finish. The used vehicle I bought was all that was advertised,the price was as stated and no crazy add -ons after the agreed upon deal. The car was detailed to complete satisfaction,and ready when promised.There was two surprises to the sale: a 45 day warranty came without charge,and when they recounted the cash that I paid (after I left the dealership and was on my way home),I got a phone call from manager Andre Selec informing me that I paid TOO MUCH and that they would be returning $100 to me!!!That was cash that he could have put in his pocket and not told anyone about it,but he called me right away. Mr. Stahl and Mr. Selec and the whole operation was top notch as I expected nothing less ,as this is my second purchase from this store (purchased a 2017 Crosstrek). More

No Pressure Experience So our intentions were to be "only looking" at the Subaru Crosstrek. We were greeted by one of the managers and he directed us to Yvonne Peterson. She So our intentions were to be "only looking" at the Subaru Crosstrek. We were greeted by one of the managers and he directed us to Yvonne Peterson. She was patient with answering our questions and showed us the features of the various trims and allowed my wife to drive a 2019 Subaru Crosstrek. Yvonne is the type of person one feels comfortable with within a short time. She is experienced. At no time did we feel pressured by her or anyone at the dealership. She spent a lot of time with us (~4 hours) and we ended up purchasing the car. Although no haggling, they had a good price on the car and it was below sticker price. I felt we had a better experience here than another Subaru dealership in Tampa where we purchased my son's 2017 Subaru Impreza. Also dealt with Andre Selec the financial manager, who again did not pressure us when it came to getting warrantee information. Overall a great no pressure experience and yes I would return to buy a car from them again. More

Positive Experience Beyond My Expectations! I had been researching new cars as the time was coming when I would need a new one. Planned on visiting 4 or 5 different dealers for test drives and t I had been researching new cars as the time was coming when I would need a new one. Planned on visiting 4 or 5 different dealers for test drives and to ask questions. After being underwhelmed at the first dealer, on a whim, I stopped at Fitzgerald Countryside (which was on my list) and it was my last stop. Best impulse move I have ever made! Such a positive experience! I was walking around the parking lot looking at my preferred vehicle and color when Rudin Peqini came and introduced himself. He listened patiently to my long ramble, processed the important points and suggested a car I hadn't seen. It was perfect! He's good!! I delayed the test drive as it was getting late and I wanted to drive in the daylight so I could concentrate on the car. Happy I did. Drove it a day later and bought it. The car was already detailed so there was no delay. The buying process is absolutely no pressure, no cajoling, no haggling and I felt that I drove away with the best deal I could have made. Rudin made sure at every step of the way that I understood exactly what I was getting and assured me over and over that I was free to call him or come by if there was any sort of problem. His patience is legendary as I asked him several times to explain the warranty. I couldn't believe how thorough and comprehensive it was. It was as though he was taking care of a family member. Rudin Peqini is definitely an asset to the dealership! The closing of the purchase was smooth and enjoyable. Alec Selec is through, personable and a pleasure to do business with. He offered some extras which I declined and there was no pressure or persuading. He is respectful of your decision. Another great asset. So, with all this gushing, I guess you know I LOVE this dealership. I held off buying a new car because of past experiences. Never again!! Fitzgerald Countryside has my business and, hopefully, the business of anyone I talk to. They are the top of the line! More

My Subaru Legacy I just want to say how pleased I was with the whole experience of purchasing my Subaru. I have wanted a Subaru for so long but was really in the marke I just want to say how pleased I was with the whole experience of purchasing my Subaru. I have wanted a Subaru for so long but was really in the market for a smaller SUV. Myself,My wife and my kids went and test drove a SUV that I really had my eye on. After test driving it we proceeded to the dreaded sales office. After telling the guy where We needed to be, he would not work with us, so we left a little disappointed. We then planned driving up the road to the Fitzgerald Jeep dealership. As we were driving, we saw what we wanted at the Subaru dealership and it was not a Subaru. As we got out and looked at it, it had too many miles for my liking. So out comes Andy. We told him what we’re looking for and he said that we should be able to find it st their Jeep dealership. I looked at my wife and she gave me the nod, so I asked Andy if he had and pre-owned Foresters or Outback’s. He said they had a few. We walked down the aisle and there SHE was, a pristine 2015 Subaru Legacy in pearl white with only 17k miles. I didn’t event want to look at the other two models. We Test drove it and after 2-3 minutes in the car, I knew it was going to be mine. She drove like a dream. Got back and talked to Andy and this guys is a wealth ok knowledge on the Subaru’s and was not pushy. I told him I was going to think about it. Well I slept on it and called him the next morning asked him to hold and To have it detailed because I would be back to buy it the next day. We came in, it was waxed and ready to go. Signed the papers and left with the car. If it wasn’t for Andy, I really think I would have regretted not buying a Subaru. This guy and dealership is FIRST CLASS. THANKS Andy. More

Great buying experience We were looking for a new car, and we decided to go to this dealership because we had inquired about a car they had available and Andy Stahl provided We were looking for a new car, and we decided to go to this dealership because we had inquired about a car they had available and Andy Stahl provided the information we needed in a timely and friendly manner. When we arrived to the dealership Andy received us and had the car ready for a drive test and all the information we needed. He was very friendly and able to answer all the questions we had and really patient with us. We never felt like he was pressuring us into buying a car from him, instead we felt like he was there to provide all the information we needed for us to decide. He was able to offer a good deal in a newer car than the one we went to check, so we decided to go with the newer car. We had a really good experience with Andy, and we would highly recommend him.

Excellent Experience I recently bought a 2018 Subaru Outback from Fitzgerald's Countryside Subaru. My sales associate was Louis Fragoso. Louis was extremely courteous, kno I recently bought a 2018 Subaru Outback from Fitzgerald's Countryside Subaru. My sales associate was Louis Fragoso. Louis was extremely courteous, knowledgeable and professional. He took the time to discuss all of the features of each Outback's package with me on more than one occasion. He made me feel like a valuable customer and even honored a lower price for my vehicle based on information from another dealer. I cannot say enough positive things about Louis or his manager, Corinna. Thanks for making this such an easy and transparent car buying experience! More
