Best car buying experience I’ve ever had. Joe Kostecki was the best salesman any buyer could hope for, no pressure, no games, very helpful and went the extra mile to make sure we were happy. Joe Kostecki was the best salesman any buyer could hope for, no pressure, no games, very helpful and went the extra mile to make sure we were happy. Jen in Finance department did not try to force any extra nonsense on the backend of the deal and she made the final purchase a very low stress breeze to finish the deal. We paid cash and drove away in less than 3 hours. I would recommend Gateway Subaru as a fantastic dealership to buy your next vehicle, new or used. More

We were at Gateway Subaru for routine maintenance, which was completed very efficiently.While there, I asked Joe Kostecki if he could explain some of the features on my 2023 Subaru Forester, since I was ne was completed very efficiently.While there, I asked Joe Kostecki if he could explain some of the features on my 2023 Subaru Forester, since I was never extended that courtesy at the Subaru dealer in Dover,Delaware ,where I had purchased the vehicle.😟 Knowing that his assistance did NOT involve the possibility of a sale, Joe explained fully all the features of my vehicle, and had me “practice” using each until I felt comfortable. He was friendly, patient, and extremely knowledgeable. I felt like I was leaving with a NEW car after his instructions !!! A concerned salesperson like Joe ,I feel ,are the “exception” in customer service, and I intend to highly recommend him and the client oriented atmosphere at Gateway Subaru for ALL our services and purchases.

He spent a great deal of time explaining everything to us and comparing all of the cars on the lot. He was not your pushy salesperson but was there for us when we needed him. In my 50 plus years of purchasing cars, he far surpassed any of my past experiences. I would highly recommend Joe. More

Gateway Subaru is FANTASTIC! Joe Kostecki was the salesperson that I worked with. His attention to detail was incredible! I must say that I went from a 2005 Honda Element to a 20 Joe Kostecki was the salesperson that I worked with. His attention to detail was incredible! I must say that I went from a 2005 Honda Element to a 2021 Subaru Limited Forester… so there was alot for me to learn! Joe Kostecki took so much time with me. He is so PATIENT… he explained everything in simple easy to understand language. Going from a 2005 car to a 2021 car had me a bit overwhelmed at first; however, Joe Kostecki was there the entire time explaining and answering all of my questions… and I had alot of questions! I really was amazed at his kindness and his patience with me. He is just amazing…his patience helped to relieve alot of my anxiety over this upgrade from a 2005 car to a 2021 car. I am telling everyone that I know about how great he was to work with. It was a pleasure to do business with him. More
