I negotiated with the salesman and manager here to trade in my truck for a new Impreza. We got to the point where they would give me $15,500 for my truck and the car would be $23,000 and my monthly payment in my truck for a new Impreza. We got to the point where they would give me $15,500 for my truck and the car would be $23,000 and my monthly payment would be $337 per month. I said I would think about it and for them to get back to me if they could do any better. A few days later they contacted me saying that was the best they could do. I said if you could take off another $12 a month we would have a deal and they agreed. This would be $325 a month according to them. This would give me another $864 to be added to my truck or taken off the price of the car. I went back to finalize the deal and when I sat down to do the paper work things didn't add up. The monthly payment was $328 a month so I started looking at the purchase price of the car and the trade in value of my truck. Instead of giving me more for my truck the contract said $15,000 and the car price was just under $23,000, I think it was $22,930. According to my agreement with Geo Padilla I should have been at $15,500 for my truck and $22,136 for the car or the $864 applied to my trade either way i borrow the same amount. This was $1,364 off. This was all after I've spent two nights there negotiating with them because the truck I purchased from them two years prior had been in an accident before i bought it. That I only found out when looking for a new car this time. They told me when I bought it that it had never been in an accident but i found out that it was. I gave this Dealership a second chance and that was a big mistake and i definately wont do it again. More
This was possibly the best overall dealer experience I have ever had!! It was great from the sales a Associate Jason Sansone to the manager Jamie Palazzo straight through to finance with Lindsay Mulrain have ever had!! It was great from the sales a Associate Jason Sansone to the manager Jamie Palazzo straight through to finance with Lindsay Mulrain.! A totally great experience. I will come back to Pine Belt Subaru again! Paula Ramos More
I’m not a huge fan of posting anything online as everyone has different expectations and opinions but I’m gonna relate my experience here for all to read. I was recently in the market to replace 2 of my vehi has different expectations and opinions but I’m gonna relate my experience here for all to read. I was recently in the market to replace 2 of my vehicles. As a former Subaru owner, there was little question about what I wanted. My wife also knew exactly what she wanted. After searching online databases we knew there weren’t a lot of the specific models in the required colors available within a reasonable range. I have previously purchased from Ron at Pine Belt and was very comfortable in dealing with him. The main issue is I didn’t want someone trying to sell me something other than what it was I was looking for just because it was on the lot or a more profitable model. We did visit the other local dealers but returned to PB for the purchase. I assume selling cars is selling cars no matter where you are but I’m writing this because I feel that the guys at PB went a bit above and beyond to locate the 2 vehicles we were looking for. We were not adversed to ordering exactly what we were looking for and waiting, but they did find both vehicles and had them ready for pick up in a week. It was a pretty involved day as we traded in several vehicles and picked up a couple. We dealt with Ron, Matt, John, Jaime, and probably a couple others behind the scene on the locate end. As always Pete and Rudy were helpful in some of the after sale items. If you live in the area and want a Subaru I’d recommend this dealership and yes we now have Subaru number 6 and 7. More

I have dealt with this Dealership three years ago for two other Vehicles which I owned.One of them came due today. Of course most of the faces from three years move on. So aside from meeting the new salesman other Vehicles which I owned.One of them came due today. Of course most of the faces from three years move on. So aside from meeting the new salesman and always introduce yourself to the GM, the deal can be made with a smooth transition. Today took a little longer than I expected, but I always factor that in for car shopping. I was happy with my deal, the quick prepare time and can't wait for next one to come due in Aug 2013.

We found Ron, the salesman, very much in tune to what we were requesting which was basic information about outbacks. He answered our questions thoroughly without any high pressure sales.

Not that I have purchased many cars in my lifetime, but I have to admit that our experience with Pine Belt was the most pleasant of all. The entire staff that we dealt with was pleasant, curtious, knowledgab have to admit that our experience with Pine Belt was the most pleasant of all. The entire staff that we dealt with was pleasant, curtious, knowledgable, not pushy, exuded a level of trustworthiness that is hardly felt when dealing with car salesmen and a nice touch was allowing us to take a car home to test drive. We pretty much had our mind set on a Subaru Outback and Pine Belt was our first and only stop as the experience warranted no further shopping. We are now happy and proud owners of a 2010 Subaru Outback thanks to Pine Belt. More
I have just leased my 4th Subaru vehicle. I have spent I have just leased my 4th Subaru vehicle. I have spent the last 14 years driving only Subaru. I have loved every single one of them. I have dealt I have just leased my 4th Subaru vehicle. I have spent the last 14 years driving only Subaru. I have loved every single one of them. I have dealt only with the Pine Belt Subaru dealer in Lakewood NJ. This dealership has always treated me with courtesy, professionalism and has never made me feel obligated or pressured to purchase any of the 4 vehicles I have leased through their dealership. My first lease was a Subaru Legacy; I drove that car for 5 years and it was wonderful, never a single issue and it drove beautifully. I then leased the Subaru Forrester, LL Bean edition, again, simply perfect. I loved the Forrester so much my 3rd lease was also a Forester, limited edition. Never a single issue with the car and the safety features ( all-wheel drive, anti-lock brakes, I.H.S. top safety pick for all 2012 models) is the reason I continue to drive only Subaru. My most recent lease was the 2013 Outback, what a beauty! This car is simply amazing! The gas mileage is terrific; the heated seats are just an absolute bonus, 6 airbags and the most comfortable ride! Need I say more? Subaru and I are perfect together! My salesperson was Ron Sikkama, I personally requested him because he was my salesperson for my last Subaru lease 3 and half yrs. ago, and he was excellent. Ron is the kind of man all car dealerships should strive to employ. He is so laid back, friendly and incredibly knowledgeable about the Subaru line. I inundated Ron with so many questions, and he answered each and every one without hesitation or annoyance (I was quite annoying with the number of questions) Ron made me feel comfortable, very comfortable, that is a rarity at any car dealership. It was very clear to me; he had only my best interest at heart. I can only hope Ron is there in 2015 when I WILL be back to lease my 5th Subaru. I also spent a great deal of time with Jaimie Palazzo, the General Manager. This man is a saint. Jaimie was responsible for the financial end of this deal. I kid you not, when I say I put this man through xxxx and back. He sat down with me in the showroom and quoted me a price for leasing the 2013 Outback. I am not exaggerating when I tell you, I sent this poor man back to his office time and time again to re- crunch the numbers. I wanted a price for 12,000 miles, then 10,000 miles, and then 42 months, and then 36 months, then with auto start, I then had the audacity to ask him not to forget about the Lease Loyalty Program. I think Jaimie lost a good 10 lbs. that day, going to and from his office from the showroom. Long story short (I guess it’s too late for that) I got the most amazing deal. I could not be happier. Finally, I had the pleasure to meet Geo Padilla. Geo is also a sales associate and his job was to explain to me how to use the blue tooth hands free phone option in the Outback. Well, this would not be an easy feat. Technology and I are not on the same planet. I still have no idea how to program or use my blue ray DVD player, Record a show to my Dvr, GPS… forget about it, and my iPhone 4s is an absolute mystery. Geo had his work cut out for him on this one… god help him. Geo sat with me in the car and very patiently explained how this feature works with my I phone, the same I phone I only know how to text or make a call on. Amazingly, Geo was a success. I am still in shock over this one! I am fully knowledgeable in the use of the blue tooth phone feature; simply astounding! I would highly recommend Pine belt Subaru of Lakewood to anyone and everyone. The staff and the Subaru line are top notch! More
I recently purchased a new car from Pine Belt Subaru on Rt. 88 in Lakewood and I was thrilled with the amazing level of customer service I received, not only from the salesman I dealt with (Jason Sansone) Rt. 88 in Lakewood and I was thrilled with the amazing level of customer service I received, not only from the salesman I dealt with (Jason Sansone) but from all of the employees at this dealership. When I arrived at the dealership I wasn't sure what I wanted but after Jason thoroughly explained the safety features on several cars and let me test drive a few, I finally decided on the Impreza. Jason didn't only make the car buying experience wonderful for me but he got my children involved in the excitement as well. I have purchased 4 cars and I have never had such a fast, friendly and overall positive experience before. I intend to purchase all my future cars from Pine Belt Subaru! More
