He is a rarity in the car dealership world, extremely sincere and he is in it for the customer and not himself. He did everything in his power to make this an awesome experience for us. We are very particular people when it comes to our vehicles and he granted all of our special requests. We will be repeat customers with Nick in the future and we also plan on referring anyone we know in the car buying search to Nick Smith. More
Even 10, 8 and 6 year old's love Nate Wade Subaru! What a refreshing experience dealing with Nate Wade Subaru! I’m a father in my mid 30’s, educated at BYU-Provo UT and working / living in Salt Lake What a refreshing experience dealing with Nate Wade Subaru! I’m a father in my mid 30’s, educated at BYU-Provo UT and working / living in Salt Lake City with my wife and 3 kids (ages 10, 8 and 6). After having our 2000 Buick Regal LS for over a decade (and nearly 200k miles), we decided that it was time to trade it in and get something newer and more reliable. I spent MONTHS researching different cars – I paid for a subscription to Consumer Reports and spent hours reviewing various cars that they tested; I frequently reviewed the Car Complaints and NHTSA websites to see the kinds of issues some cars were causing; I looked at the IIHS crash ratings and reviewed several cars for their crash worthiness and avoidance technologies; I reviewed several car enthusiast websites, read through car manuals and asked family members and friends at work for advice on cars. At the end of almost 1 year of virtual / online research, we narrowed down our choices to two cars, a Subaru Legacy with EyeSight and a non-Subaru sedan. My family and I chose a Saturday to go test drive two cars that we were interested in. My wife and 10-year old daughter were unhappy with the first pick (the non-Subaru) since they were concerned with the reliability of the car. They also considered that the sales guys at that non-Subaru dealer were too pushy as they wanted to sell us a car we didn’t want (the car we wanted to test drive wasn’t on their lot). So with that car knock out of the “bracket”, we were off to Nate Wade Subaru. I got Nate Wade Subaru’s information from the Costco Auto website (I won’t mention more here about them but Costco Auto was VERY helpful during my car research). Mike Johnston first contacted me via text and voice so that I could set up an appointment. Although Mike wasn’t there for our Saturday test drive (Mike was out of town) he sent a text and told me to contact another sales guy - Josh Kelly. We were greeted by many staff members at Nate Wade Subaru, who were very polite and courteous to all of us. They even have a “continental-breakfast” style break area where the kids were able to have a light snack before we went for test drive. My 8 and 6 year old love pop-corn so they were already winning points right there! Josh was there to answer our questions and explain more about the features of the car. My wife and kids (yep, including the 10 year old) all agreed on the car (2016 Legacy Limited with EyeSight) and also praised the friendliness of the Nate Wade Subaru staff, especially Josh Kelly. We returned the following Monday to sign the paperwork with Nick Poulos, and to complete the deal for the new car. Nick gave us a brief tour of the service station and explained the included maintenance from Nate Wade Subaru. My wife and I left there knowing that we had a great car at a great price from a great dealer. I have purchased many cars and this was the most relaxing experience that I have felt. At no point did we feel pressured into buying a specific type or color of car – it was truly our choice and we had the freedom to discuss what we wanted rather than what the dealer wanted to ‘shove’ at us. I would recommend that anyone in Salt Lake (and nearby counties) looking for a Subaru that they go and visit Nate Wade Subaru. We found that the Subaru had the best bang for the buck with reliability, performance, features, safety and price. We left Nate Wade Subaru with a calm feeling that we got an A+ car with A+ safety (almost all 2016 Subaru’s got IIHS Top Safety Pick+) and A+ service. Great job Nate Wade Subaru and thank you! More

I had my mind set on something else that I was able to test drice- even though he wasn't a huge fan of the car I drove, he didn't mention it to me and let me drive it myself. When I came back disappointed, he offered the Forester Xt to me, which I initially thought I would hate... Well I loved it. He knew what I was looking for and was honest with me, and also very knowledgeable. Needless to say I came back the very next day and picked up what is now my brand new car, and I love it! Thanks Josh, and Nate Wade Subaru, for all you helped me with!! More

She was well informed, answered all my questions, and, most importantly, was pleasant, charming, and just plain nice. When my Outback died in early January this year, I knew two things. First, I wanted another Outback. Second, I wanted Carla working the sale. That is, I wanted two things I knew I could trust, without hesitation. Long story short, I am the proud owner of a 2016 Subaru Outback purchased from Nate Wade Subaru through Carla York. Carla York . . . don't go to, or leave, a dealership without her. There is no subsitute. Carla, my family and I thank you for the many years ahead of us driving a car we truly love. More

Carla was awesome to work with. There was not any of the typical dealer add on junk (paint protection, etched glass, door edge guards, etc.). I would definitely buy here again. More
A pleasurable buying experience We got in contact with Nick Smith through the Costco buying program. He was very low pressure and made the purchase an enjoyable experience. Fred So We got in contact with Nick Smith through the Costco buying program. He was very low pressure and made the purchase an enjoyable experience. Fred Southwick was also great to work with in financing. We are just beginning our relationship with the dealership but if Nick and Fred are representative, we are going to enjoy the years ahead! More
