The best experience ever! In Nov 2015, I contacted many dealers (mostly in NJ, NY and Ciocca in PA) by email. Shawn replied promptly with a quote in detail. He was the only one In Nov 2015, I contacted many dealers (mostly in NJ, NY and Ciocca in PA) by email. Shawn replied promptly with a quote in detail. He was the only one who send me a followup email on the next business day. I ordered the Outback that same week in person with delivery date for the last week of Jan 2016. Fortunately, he located a car in transit adjusted to my specifications. The car was ready for pickup in the last week of Nov! On the 1st weekend of Dec, Greg took care of the transaction. Then I was forwarded to Anthony (Finance), who asked me a few questions/signatures. Finally, John showed me the car in detail. Overall, Ciocca representatives know how to listen to the customer! None of them try to sale me any accessory other than requested. I also noticed that there is a positive vibe/feeling in the air (A lot of smiles/excitements). The transaction was SMOOTH, CLEAR and COMFORTABLE! Absolutely I recommend this dealer. I just wish to be closer for service. Thank you again Shawn, Greg, Anthony and John! More
Awesome Customer Experience! If you are in the market for a Subaru, make the trip to the Ciocca dealership in Allentown. The experience was by far the best I've had in a lifetime If you are in the market for a Subaru, make the trip to the Ciocca dealership in Allentown. The experience was by far the best I've had in a lifetime of purchasing automobiles. The vibe in the showroom was great, busy with an air of excitement. We had the pleasure of dealing with Greg Fichter, clearly one of Ciocca's "peak performers", and a terrific salesperson. Greg was knowledgeable, engaging and was able to answer every question that came up during the process. We knew the particular WRX we were looking at was in high demand, but Greg still negotiated a fair deal from my perspective, and despite having multiple customers to wait on during a busy Saturday made us feel like we had his full attention at all times. Everyone else involved with the sale was courteous and on the ball, and this made for an extremely pleasant customer experience. Thanks Greg & the entire staff at Ciocca Subaru! Doug More
Internet "First Contact" I am stunned, shocked, and blown away by the patience of Tom Calianno..

I had multiple emails over an 8 or 9 week period,, many times changing, color, model. year, you name it...how anyone can be so patient and thoughtful, and reassuring is like the days of old...a handshake and you are a friend. Tom was helpful, AND calm (this after all is my very first Subaru), and he was helpful, and alleviated all my car buying fears. Thank you Tom! You are the best! More

No Long-Distance Bait and Switch! I live in Virginia, 400 miles from the Ciocca dealership in Allentown, PA, so Shawn Parr and I negotiated my whole 2016 Forester purchase by phone and I live in Virginia, 400 miles from the Ciocca dealership in Allentown, PA, so Shawn Parr and I negotiated my whole 2016 Forester purchase by phone and online. To my amazement, after I drove 6 hours to the dealership the whole purchase deal transpired exactly as Shawn said it would. No bait and switch, no last-minute surprises! I am thrilled with my new Forester but I am also very impressed with the entire Ciocca organization for its professionalism and clean dealing. Thank you Shawn Parr and Jimmy Ofori and Mohammad Masud!

When we did hit a little bump in the road the staff just leveled it off and easy sailing. It is nice to buy a great car and have the entire dealership be just as good. Thank you Ciocca Subaru. More
The ease of doing business After a month or more of chatting with Shawn Parr in emails, I took a trip up to the Allentown dealership, a 50-mile drive. I was immediately greet After a month or more of chatting with Shawn Parr in emails, I took a trip up to the Allentown dealership, a 50-mile drive. I was immediately greeted by Jeffrey Staver at the front desk where they were going to get me someone, but he said he'd like to help me. I was impressed with that. I told him what I was looking for and how much I wanted to spend. I had done my homework and knew the amount I wanted to finance and the most I was willing to pay monthly. Usually, that turns some salesmen off but not Jeffrey, he seemed intent to get me my deal. Becuase the 2016 Impreza Sport Premium/Limits inventory was low as they had just come out, he made me a deal on the one they had and the deal was sweet. Tom Odonnell the finance person did a fantastic job too making it quick and easy. Jeffrey Staver showed me around the dealership pointing out the service and parts department and then he went through my vehicle programming my phone into the Bluetooth system saving me the time and hassle. I drove off in my new vehicle feeling absolutely no buyers remorse whatsoever. I'm in sales, I sell Insurance for Allstate and I will recommend this dealership and Jeffrey Staver to anyone who is thinking about buying a new car. It was so worth the 50 miles I drove to get my fantastic deal. Weeks later and I am still thrilled!! Great job, Ciocca Subaru for having a salesman like Jeffrey Staver on board. More

Very poor representatives of Subaru brand This dealership is the #2 dealership in the country in Subaru Sales, yet they are too self-serving and petty to trade a vehicle to another dealership This dealership is the #2 dealership in the country in Subaru Sales, yet they are too self-serving and petty to trade a vehicle to another dealership in the region. Based on my experience, I can say with certainty that Ciocca does not care how the Subaru brand is perceived in the marketplace. I live more than 1 hour from the closest Ciocca dealership - regardless of the brand of car - and clearly could not take advantage of the "1-year Reward Benefits" that come with a new car purchase. Coincidentally, a local dealership was searching on my behalf for a specific vehicle that I had also been searching for. After a very pleasant experience with Jeff Lobalbo in Internet Sales, I received a call from the "Closer," Christian Rivera. When Christian phone, I had just hung-up from a call with the local dealership who was trying to acquire one of 2 vehicles that met my criteria and were on the Ciocca lot. I explained clearly and honestly to the sales rep. that I wanted a specific configuration; I also explained that it was totally impractical for me to purchase a new vehicle from a dealership more than 1 hour from my home or work. Christian listened and seemed to be sympathetic to my situation; he asked me to wait for him to talk with his sales mgr to see if one of the vehicles could be traded. I was shocked and disappointed when Christian phoned me back and said there was absolutely NO WAY they would trade either vehicle with either of their fellow dealers, both of whom are within 11 miles of my home and work. And furthermore, they did not offer to "beat" the price offered by the other dealers, nor did they offer to compensate me for the value of the new vehicle maintenance that I would lose by buying from a dealer that could never be my "go-to" service shop. Their position was snotty, self-serving and totally without concern for the customer, their dealer partners or the Subaru brand (which is strong, despite numerous and persistent mechanical problems.) Truth be told, I was buying and driving Subaru's before the sales rep was even born. We have owned 2 new Subaru's - a 1978 GF purchased in KC and a 1990 or 1991 Legacy Sedan purchased in Philly. Our last Subaru was a 1998 pre-owned Outback. That "ownership experience" was both costly and aggravating: we replaced the transmission, the head gasket, and finally, the vehicle imploded and needed to be rolled into a local dealership who gave us a very generous trade-in allowance on what had become a hunk of junk. I explained all this to Christian, who apparently had a good laugh with his Sales Manager before calling me back to insult me with their non-cooperative counter-offer. And then, Christian had the audacity to write to me and ask if they could "pick me up and drive me to Allentown" to make the purchase. Here's my advice: go to any other Subaru dealer you can to avoid Ciocca Subaru. FYI: I was treated very well by the following people, all of whom represent Subaru with distinction and true concern for the customer: Carlos Ortiz from Victory Subaru in Somerset, NJ,; Dan Tezla from Welsh Subaru, Yahsiah Mays from Reedman-Toll and Tracey Ehlenberger from Fred Beans.
