Stohlman Automotive

Great working with Chris La Porte I spoke with four Subaru Dealerships before I chose to work with Chris La Porte at Stohlman in Tysons Corner. I wanted a Forester a specific way and i I spoke with four Subaru Dealerships before I chose to work with Chris La Porte at Stohlman in Tysons Corner. I wanted a Forester a specific way and it was no where to be found so I had to place an order. We agreed on a purchase price up front and that is exactly what I paid, no surprises! From start to finish, Chris was responsive. He either answered his phone or returned my calls or emails quickly. He kept me informed of the progress from car build, transit, to port delivery. The car was ready to go when we arrived at the dealership and he included some great accessories without additional fee! Chris is very easy to work with and I really appreciate that. Thank you for making this a pleasant buying experience! Lynn More

Perfect car & buying experience! Tom was excellent! We are a return customer because our first experience was so great (and different from any other dealership we've ever come across Tom was excellent! We are a return customer because our first experience was so great (and different from any other dealership we've ever come across). Both times we had done our research and knew specs about the vehicles we were buying before coming in. Both times, the staff (from the sales, to managers, to financing) were extremely knowledgeable about the vehicles and confirmed what we had researched and taught us a lot of new things. Tom was professional, polite, not pushy at all and made us feel appreciated. Sean Deal (our sales guy from last time) was the sales manager this time and remembered us from last time. He & Trent assisted with this sale too. They are both knowledgeable, professional guys and don't beat around the bush about the pricing. I wanted as much done by the time we came in and they had the car waiting for us to drive/buy both times we bought a car there. All features were explained to us in detail and there was no feeling of skipping things because we already own one. We are now loyal VW & Stohlman customers! There are 3 dealerships closer that we have dealt with (in the research process, test driving and then service one time) and we will ALWAYS go to Stohlman from here on out. Their service department is awesome too. I cannot explain enough how different & better this dealership is. We have bought new cars for 25 years now and we have always felt frustrated at lack of knowledge, professionalism, respect and/or felt ripped off after driving away. It was as stream-lined & pleasant as buying a car can be. As far as VW's go, we have had 3 now in the family (Beetle, Passat & Jetta) and we always go drive/compare cars that fit the specs we are looking for in all classes & brands. We haven't found any that have the tight cornering, responsiveness, features (killer stereo & technology stuff) and overall driving experience in that price range. Out of the cars we've driven & owned, German engineering definitely has them all beaten (and we have tried to be unbiased), but VW has the value beaten against other German cars and still drives as tight as their luxury counterparts (and in the Passat's case more HP than most of the standard models of the luxury brands). In fact I drove a BMW 335i & my Passat V6 head to head (almost the same HP) but my Passar felt lighter, more responsive and it was 20k less $! Score! Needless to say, we highly recommend Tom, Stohlman and VW! :) More

Great Service I was having my car serviced and wasn't able to pick it up until after hours.

They didn't have time for me. Lesson learned. The woman I had the appointment with was too busy so she handed me of to Trent.

I told him I had a month to make a purchase, but was worried about Dieselgate, VW's reputation, and incentives that might change until then. He apparently was busy too - he shook my hand, said thanks for coming in, and led me to the exit. I left and made a purchase elsewhere for a much better price through Truecar.com. Personally, a poor experience with a sales manager who had easier (and plenty of) prey. The nature of the business I suppose. More

David Jennings is the best! My husband I have bought four Subarus from Stohlman, the last two from David Jennings. David helps with every step of the way. He helped me put togeth My husband I have bought four Subarus from Stohlman, the last two from David Jennings. David helps with every step of the way. He helped me put together the specific car I wanted, kept me informed while we waited for it to arrive, gave me an excellent price, and helped me set up all the bells and whistles, sync my iPhone, and generally learn my way around a lot of new features once it arrived. He is thorough, knowledgeable, friendly, and very helpful. I highly recommend David if you're considering buying a Subaru. I've been having my cars serviced at Stohlman since I bought my first Subaru in 1999. Ever since Carlos Corea came to work there, my service experience has been excellent. Carlos is a first rate service representative: knowledgeable, helpful, and friendly. He has gone over and above the ordinary for me many times. I always know my car is in excellent hands when I take it to Carlos. More

He answered my many questions and helped me sort out options to find what was best for me within my budget, needs, and preferences. At no point did I feel pressured. He walked me through every step of the process. I am surprised to say it but buying from Alan and the Stohlman team was a very pleasant process. They treated each other with the same respect that they treated my wife and I. It is great to have trust in the team. More

I visited the dealership several times and test drove the same type of car twice before making a decision. I never felt pressured to buy and I appreciated that they respected my process. In the end I bought the Subaru Forester. The great service does not end with a purchase either. They have checked in with me to see if I had any issues or further questions. They also have a new owner clinic to help people get more familiar with their new cars. More

It was definitely worth the added time to travel from Maryland to Stohlman in Virginia. He was extremely knowledgeable and patient in explaining the features of my new Subaru Impreza and even setup Bluetooth contacts and favorite radio stations. I couldn't be more pleased with the service I received. More

Easy transaction and order None of the local Subaru dealerships had the desired configuration of the 2016 Outback 2.5i Ltd we wanted, but I knew based on our previous experience None of the local Subaru dealerships had the desired configuration of the 2016 Outback 2.5i Ltd we wanted, but I knew based on our previous experience with Chris La Porte (when buying our last Outback only 3 years ago) I would rather order from him and wait than deal with anyone else. Chris ordered it, knew exactly how long it would take to arrive from the manufacturer, and took a great deal of time making sure he addressed any questions he had. We just picked up the Outback this week, and we have another good transaction with Chris. More
