Chris was a pleasure to work with. I didn't expect to enjoy the car buying process, but Chris made it easy and painless. I would certainly go back next time I want to buy a car. to enjoy the car buying process, but Chris made it easy and painless. I would certainly go back next time I want to buy a car. More
Sheehy Subaru of Springfield was an excellent experience for me. I researched cars on line as I was looking for something that would provide me stability, security, and quality price. After deciding on a Su for me. I researched cars on line as I was looking for something that would provide me stability, security, and quality price. After deciding on a Subaru, I sent an email to several dealerships. Mr. McGill responded by email quickly; and even though he invited me out for a test drive, allowed me to email questions back and forth to him for a couple of weeks until I was ready to commit to a visit. Upon my visit, I found Mr. McGill to be as polite in person as he was online. In fact, everyone I met at Sheehy was very courteous and helpful. I spent more than an hour on my first visit. Mr. McGill guided me through everything, the exact Subaru I should purchase in my price point and for my needs, the options that would suit my needs best, and the best way to pay for the car. Mr. Montgomery was also as generous with his time as he guided me through all the paperwork and required signatures. And Manager Brandon, I'm sorry I don't know his last name, was nice enough to come by and say congratulations on my purchase and to talk a few minutes. Today, I returned to pick up my car and found Mr. McGill just as generous with his time today as he walked me through all the elements of my car, syncing my phone, loading favorite places in my navigation system, and showing me how to use all the buttons and gadgets. Many of the Subaru staff stopped to congratulate me on my purchase and were very courteous and helpful despite how busy it was. If you are looking for a low pressure, courteous place to shop, check out Sheehy in Springfield. I think you will enjoy it. More
If you want something done, ask a busy person. These words were never more true than when buying a car from Chris LaPorte. Although he seems to be juggling several xxxxx in the air at any given time, h words were never more true than when buying a car from Chris LaPorte. Although he seems to be juggling several xxxxx in the air at any given time, he is able to keep his eye on the one that represents you. He followed through on promised phone calls and took care of details very efficiently. It was fun dealing with him -- never a dull moment. I'm not surprised that he is one of the top salesmen in the US. More
I ended up at Sheehy Subaru after shopping at several other area dealers where I was not happy with the customer service. Chris La Porte impressed me immediately. He was friendly, energetic and knowledge other area dealers where I was not happy with the customer service. Chris La Porte impressed me immediately. He was friendly, energetic and knowledgeable. He gave me lots of options and was never pushy. He agreed to appraise my car for trade-in without hesitation, which was not the case at the other dealers I tried. Chris devoted a great deal of time to helping me get a car I was happy with at a price point I could afford. Thanks, Chris. Highly recommended. More
After researching new cars on the internet, I ended up choosing to go to Sheehy Subaru first because they had Sunday hours which allowed me to test drive a couple of their cars. I met Mr. La Porte upon w choosing to go to Sheehy Subaru first because they had Sunday hours which allowed me to test drive a couple of their cars. I met Mr. La Porte upon walking into the showroom and in spite of me telling him right away that I wasn't going to be buying a car that day and maybe not at all because the repairs from an accident with my previous car were still pending; he spent a good amount of his time with me explaining to the various differences in the cars I was looking at and giving me all kinds of information that I wasn't looking for but would ultimately need in making the final decision to buy a 2014 Forester. While Mr. La Porte kept coming up with various ideas and scenarios to get me into a new car, he wasn't at all pushy and when it came time to make a deal on a car, that is exactly what he did. It is clear from working with Mr. La Porte that he knows the new car sales business very well and most importantly, he treats you with respect. More
Chris was most helpful and thoughtful. Before I bought the car, he gave me ample opportunities to drive it and test it in my neighborhood with its driving challenges.

When I went to pick up my new car, he met me at the subway station so I didn't have to walk to the dealership.

When my long-term car had engine trouble, I was obviously distraught. The thought of buying a new car, including haggling over prices and endless test-drives, was distasteful. Though I wanted the process t distraught. The thought of buying a new car, including haggling over prices and endless test-drives, was distasteful. Though I wanted the process to end quickly, I also wanted to secure a good price for a great car. Enter: Chris LaPorte. From the moment I walked into Sheehy Subaru, he was friendly but not too pushy. Instead, it was clear that he had faith in his product and wanted me to see why. When I wasn't overwhelmed by the first car I drove, Chris quickly found one that captured my attention: the 2014 Forester. It was evident that Chris knew his fleet of cars well and could rattle off features and specs at my request; this was juxtaposed with my experience at most other dealerships, where their salespeople were only passingly familiar with their vehicles. When I expressed interest in the Ford brand, Chris personally took me next door, introduced me to a saleswoman, and helped me decide which Ford would best fit my need. In the end, the Forester and a Mazda CX-5 were left standing, and Chris' genuine love of the Subaru brand helped sway me to purchase his car. While other salespeople insulted rival car manufacturers and their products, Chris' desire to see me purchase the right car for me, even if it wasn't his, made it that much easier to choose Subaru. Yes, the car's quality speaks for itself, but it doesn't hurt to have Chris LaPorte translate. More
Mr La Porte was a wonderful salesperson. He was determined to make sure that I was more than satisfied with my new car choice. In addition, I never felt rushed or pressured.

I purchased my BRZ from Chris and Elei over at Sheehy Subaru. They helped me reserve the vehicle I wanted, and set me up with a price (without the awful $2-$3k market adjustment every other dealer seems Subaru. They helped me reserve the vehicle I wanted, and set me up with a price (without the awful $2-$3k market adjustment every other dealer seems to be adding to this model), financing, and gathered all of the information they needed before it was delivered. Once it came in, they gave me a call and had everything ready for me to test drive. The car was already detailed, and only had 8 miles on the odometer. I requested that they not drill the front bumper for a license plate, or attach any dealer stickers or emblems, and they did honor my request. Elei rode with me on the test drive as I wasn't familiar with the area, and he knew some great roads to really get a feel for what the car can do. After the test drive, they offered the standard paint/interior protection, maintenance, and warranty upsells, but were not pushy if declined. Then it was on to Kim in financing to sign the paperwork and I was off! In and out took a little over an hour, which is a lot less time than the 3.5 hours I spent the last time I purchased a new car. Everyone I worked with was very friendly, knowledgeable, and provided great customer service. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a Subaru. More
