Peninsula Subaru

Buying made easy My wife and I were looking for a new AWD from the Japanese competition but decided to test drive the Forester at Peninsula Subaru neither of us had ev My wife and I were looking for a new AWD from the Japanese competition but decided to test drive the Forester at Peninsula Subaru neither of us had even considered a Subaru as even beings the running. The salesman explained the features and let us go where we pleased. I was encouraged to try the AWD on leaves, hills, 2 inches of water over the road way. When asked what I thougt about the car I said I liked it but needed he competition. He told me what vehicles were the closest competition and wished us luck, no pressure, no negative comments about the competition. We the drove the two main Japanese competitors (we have family with the American competion and did not like the reliance on a turbo to be able to do more than coast. The competition lacked the great traction and comfort of the Subaru. My wife and I both noticed the Forester had better visibility and I mentioned it to both of th other dealers. As soon as they knew we were considering Subaru the remainder of the test drive was bashing Subaru by the sales guys. What was interesting is all the negatives they mentioned also applied to their vehicles as well but they had no mechanical expierence or education to know it. I tried to negotiate on the price on the competition and they stuck with the MSRP and only a slight discount with Costco etc. My wife looked at me and said why bother the Subaru is nicer car and had better visibility. We went back to Peninsula Subaru again after doing some on line price comparison. The sales staff showed us the numbers instantly offering a great price beating even the Costco price by a few dollars. While they were working on the details with my wife, I was checking on line prices in Puyallup and the North Sound inorder to avoid buyers remorse. I found a better price on line but it was a one day sale, one car etc. etc(probably gone if we went ther etc). I showed the salesman, he showed the manager and came back with all the papers showing the new price. No haggling. Lower sales tax. Free oil changes etc. They installed the accessories and we drove off in the first storm of the season. More

Frustrating Experience I love my new car and the salesmen were incredible here! Wesley Jordan was awesome to work with and I'd highly recommend him as a salesman. However, t I love my new car and the salesmen were incredible here! Wesley Jordan was awesome to work with and I'd highly recommend him as a salesman. However, the processing and paperwork after the fact was such a hassle! Repeatedly had issues and had to keep coming back to resign and resend paperwork. I've never had this much of a problem with car paperwork before. Great car but I'd recommend considering other dealerships if you want everything to be properly squared away the first time. More
