Best car buying experience we've ever had. No hassle at all. Came in with a printed AAA TrueCar price, and they honored it with no questions. Reasonable value given for trade-in. No hard sell for financ at all. Came in with a printed AAA TrueCar price, and they honored it with no questions. Reasonable value given for trade-in. No hard sell for financing options, given the promotional Subaru rate. We would certainly come back when we're looking for another Subaru. More

We had a great experience at Subaru of Gwinnett working with Lance Willhite. We were shopping for a Subaru Forester and other comparable vehicles from competing brands.

We price shopped utilizing other dealers and the Costco auto-program, and Lance was very patient with all this and successfully competed for and won our business. We purchased a car with a lot of options including customized aftermarket leather, and all these items were taken car of with out a hitch, exactly according to our specifications. Thanks to Subaru of Gwinnett! I'm grateful the dealer we hope to utilize for maintenance and service won our business for purchase. More

Your dealership was the most responsive to my purchase inquires. Lance Willhite was a true professional and most attentive to our questions on selected vehicles for purchase. His overall demeanor led us inquires. Lance Willhite was a true professional and most attentive to our questions on selected vehicles for purchase. His overall demeanor led us to purchase a 2014 Outback. Additionally, Jim Heet, handled my initial visit to the dealership while Lance was on his day off. Jim was excellent in showing me additional vehicles that more suited my taste. Jim was not the initial sales contact, Lance was, but Jim attended to assist me in a test drive and sales questions as if I was his customer. That was impressive and it led me to contact Lance the next day to seal a purchase of a Outback, limited model. That was true teamwork and in my 40 years of purchasing various vehicles , I had never seen such service . In addition, the Finance Manger, Mike Anderson,was most professional and expedited the processing of or financing in a very professional manner, never using high pressure tactics for warranty sales, and other add on products. He explained everything clearly and never pressured us to purchase additional add on items. Mike, even helped us save some money after explaining in his opinion on what best suited our needs regarding extended warranty programs. Mike could have easily stayed quite and it would have cost us several hundred additional dollars for necessary warranty coverage based on our needs. That was impressive! I will highly recommend Suburu of Gwinnett to my friends regarding my experience and especially in regards to Lance, Jim and Mike who exemplify. the best in salesmanship. These individuals are a true asset to your dealership and Suburu. Bernard & Patricia Charette (09.27.14) More

We worked with Lance over a period of 3 months to buy a new car. He really never came across as a car sales rep. It was a No Pressure transaction starting out with finding the right car and a very good pri new car. He really never came across as a car sales rep. It was a No Pressure transaction starting out with finding the right car and a very good price. He worked with us to understand our needs, and delivered the right car at the right time (when we were ready to buy), and gave us a great price. This car buying experience was the most pleasurable, something that seldom happens at a car dealership. I would certainly work with Lance for our next car purchase. More

I have purchased 6 vehicles from dealerships in my lifetime; my experience with Subaru of Gwinnett was the best one so far. I visited the dealership 3 times for test drives before purchasing. I receiv lifetime; my experience with Subaru of Gwinnett was the best one so far. I visited the dealership 3 times for test drives before purchasing. I received zero pressure from Lance nor did he pepper me with salesman type questions. When it came time to buy the car, Lance and I agreed on terms over the phone and he had everything ready for me when I arrived. Start to finish, I think the whole transaction took about 45 min. The dealership was busy and Lance had other customers, but he honored his commitment to me to get me in and out of there as quick as possible while still being respectful to his walk in customers. Jennifer in finance, was friendly and our time together was brief and easy. More
