Best experience buying a used car I came with my brother to pick up his extra key for his Subaru and while he was waiting, I looked at the used Subarus. One white one caught my eye. I came with my brother to pick up his extra key for his Subaru and while he was waiting, I looked at the used Subarus. One white one caught my eye. It was exactly what I wanted and I had him look at it. The next day we went back and Travis was our salesperson. He was extremely courteous and knowledgeable about the car and got us all information we requested. I was very impressed by his thoroughness and patience while we waited for all the paperwork to be completed. It was more complex because the car was bought in CT, and I live in NJ. Overall, it was the most pleasant experience I have ever had buying a used car. Connie Roberts More

Ask for Valentina We set up an appointment with Valentina via email. Friends had recommended her after their positive experience at Garavel. We knew we wanted a used We set up an appointment with Valentina via email. Friends had recommended her after their positive experience at Garavel. We knew we wanted a used Outback, and were working with a limited amount of time and a limited budget. She patiently explained the differences in their available stock, listening to the things we would like to have (heated seats) and not selling us on things we weren't interested in (sun roof). Overall a friendly and hassle-free experience thanks to Valentina. More

I had a terrible experience here and you will too I had a terrible experience at this dealership for which the one star minimum is too high. Valentina Craig and managers David Taylor and Nik Kanazirev I had a terrible experience at this dealership for which the one star minimum is too high. Valentina Craig and managers David Taylor and Nik Kanazirev quoted me an attractive price on a car but then told me they would have to raise it when I tried to make a deposit on it four business hours later. Their dishonest tactics also included refusing to detail in writing the fees on the lease agreement prior to my putting down a deposit, handing me a brochure for their costly extended warranty brochure when I asked for a written description of their free lifetime warranty, telling me that leased cars that are subsequently purchased qualify for the dealership’s lifetime warranty and then retracting the statement when I asked to see it in the warranty description, lying about whether I could trade in my existing vehicle for its equity, and trying to trick us into test driving a higher trim than the one we had agreed to test drive. When I complained about this dishonesty to owner Paul Garavel he refused to rectify the matter. These tactics were likely violations of the CT Unfair Trade Practices Act and Section 5 of the Federal Trade Commission Act, and help explain why they received the worst rating (an F) from the Better Business Bureau. Therefore, do yourself a favor and stay away from these cheats. If you do shop there, have a lawyer lined up to sue them after they defraud you, or at least file complaints against them with the CT Attorney General, Federal Trade Commission, Subaru of America, CT DMV Consumer Complaint Center, etc. If you transacted with them and believe you had a good experience, you may want to re-examine your sale/lease documents.

It just to be an amazing dealer. Not anymore. Stay away!! Worse buying experience. I had bought five vehicles from this dealership before. But this time the sales manager went out of his way treating me lik Worse buying experience. I had bought five vehicles from this dealership before. But this time the sales manager went out of his way treating me like I didn't know what I wanted. He refuse to give me a new quote on a vehicle just because I change the trim level that I wanted to look at. More

Jay Presley & Amanda Gerpe were superb Both Jay Presley & Amanda Gerpe were very helpful in making us choose to buy from Garavel and to choose the car we finally bought. Jay was not restr Both Jay Presley & Amanda Gerpe were very helpful in making us choose to buy from Garavel and to choose the car we finally bought. Jay was not restrictive during the road test, which is very important. Amanda helped by conveying the corporate cash deal that Garavel was offering to first few customers - this made me go to Garavel instead of Stamford where i bought my Tribeca many years ago. More
