PlanetSubaru of Hanover isn't just a dealership, but is also a great member of our community. They continuously support other local businesses, and donate as well. Thanks for being more than a dealership. More

Hi Dbgilbe, Thank you for the amazing review! Our mission is to do exactly what you describe, which is what we call the UnDealersip experience. It's the only way to do business that makes sense to us, and how we would want to be treated if we were our customers. I'm so glad we were able to help and we hope to see you again!

I have worked in car dealerships for years. Some of them were good. Some of them were not so good. Planet Subaru is how dealerships should be. People talk about low pressure sales but they are More

Hands down the best dealership I have ever done business with. They stand by the vehicle’s the sell and are definitely in the business of making lifelong customers. More

Unlike any car buying experience I’ve ever had - in a good way. They are low pressure and don’t play games. No waiting for hours while they go back and forth to the sales manager; they are honest and fai More

Hi Ascent Owner, thank you for your business in the past, I'm sorry this one didn't work out. Comments like this are so rare for us that it's clear who you are, and that this was an unfortunate symptom of the supply chain issues that are plaguing every industry right now. We operate with a level of transparency that is several orders of magnitude above other dealers, but we can't control the companies who are responsible for delivering the cars to our lot. I hope that you are happy with your new car and it serves you well. Dale Lathrop, General Manager (781) 826-4444x137 or dale@planetsubaru.com

I contact Planet Subaru because they had the car I was looking for on the lot. However, they were also charging a premium price and a $1,000 surcharge for out of state purchasers. I applaud them for tell More

Hi Vermonter, it's true that we are totally transparent in how we price our vehicles. The current supply shortages have increased pricing across the entire industry and we've been working hard to keep our pricing fair and competitive. We've seen some pretty extreme examples of dealers trying to charge outlandish margins over list price, but you'll never find those here. Many people like yourself have had to expand their search for hundreds (or thousands) of miles to find the car they're looking for at a fair price. We hope you found the right car closer to home, but don't hesitate to reach out if you would like us to help. Dale Lathrop, General Manager (781) 826-4444x137 or dale@planetsubaru.com

Planet Subaru responded

Hi Charlie, thank you for the great review and for sharing your experience! It's pretty rare that we meet someone who doesn't like what we have to offer, but it's more important to us that we give you a great experience, regardless of whether you're buying anything or not. Kony is truly great at what she does, and she does it by focusing on exactly what you describe. The philosophy at Planet is to make your purchase easy, but it still has to be the perfect car for you. In this case, we didn't have the perfect car and we'd much rather discover it this way than try to undo a mistake. We hope you find that perfect car and check us out again when it's time for the next one! Dale Lathrop, General Manager (781) 826-4444x137 or dale@planetsubaru.com
