I've had my Subaru Legacy serviced an Dan Perkins Subaru for many years now, although I bought it at another dealership.I've always had a positive experience with the Service department so it made se Subaru for many years now, although I bought it at another dealership.I've always had a positive experience with the Service department so it made sense to consider this dealership first in considering a new Subaru. The time finally came for me to get into a more 'family oriented' car like an Outback. I'd been talking to Bob Oshrin for months via Phone/E-mail and he was very friendly and understood my timeline was uncertain. He said just let him know. So finally the day came to buy a new Outback. I can say that I really put buying a car off just because I really dislike the whole process. With each experience, I felt weary that my concerns were considered. But I am pleased to say that this was not how it happened with Bob. From the moment we first connected on e-mail to the moment I pulled out of the lot in a new Outback, it was a very positive experience. Although Bob will say he's not really a 'car guy', he really is. He knows his cars very well and he was motivated to get me into the right car for me. He listened very well to what I was interested in/needed and then negotiated fairly once we found the right fit for me and my family. I felt comfortable that Bob was truly looking to get me the best deal he could. He went the extra yard that help make a sales person stand out. Bob did a great job to explain the steps to me, he followed my paperwork closely, made sure my car was ready for delivery. If there was any kind of obstacle, he'd get on the phone and shout at the department manager. He had a smile on his face so I could sense this was a routine conversation, all in good fun. But I'm highlighting that Bob knew how to get the deal done. All in all, we spent about 90 minutes, test driving and negotiating a deal. Delivery took an hour. I'm very pleased with this efficient use of time. Just the same, I never felt rushed. I can say that everyone at the dealership was friendly and Nick in finance was very courteous and efficient in finalizing the sale. I would recommend this dealership to friends and family if they are interested in a Subaru. Personally, I feel grateful to be introduced to Bob Oshrin to buy my new Subaru Outback. Buying a car was something I was not looking forward to but Bob seems to understand this and did his best to limit the frustrating aspects of buying a car. It might be some time from now but if I ever decide to buy a new Subaru, I will definitely seek out Bob to get the deal done. In fact, because of this positive experience, I might see if he can go with me if I decide to buy another brand of car....which I won't, Subaru knows AWD and this is very important in Connecticut.

Being recently retired, the decision to purchase a vehicle was more financially significant than in the past. Bob Oshrin at Dan Perkins Subaru was very informative and helpful, and did not use a high- vehicle was more financially significant than in the past. Bob Oshrin at Dan Perkins Subaru was very informative and helpful, and did not use a high-pressured sales approach that I have experienced at other dealerships. In fact, when we first arrived at the dealership to browse the cars in their lot, we were allowed to casually explore the different models at our leisure and for some time, without a sales rep shadowing us around. We came to an agreeable purchase and trade-in price rather quickly, and Mr. Oshrin made arrangements to deliver our new car in a timely manner. When working with George Irizarry to complete the sales process and arrange for financing, I was pleasantly surprised to find that there was no pressure put upon us to purchase the myriad of "add-ons," such as extended warranties and protection plans. It was truly a relaxed and positive experience, and I would have no reservations recommending this dealership and Mr. Oshrin to others. More
I had searched for WEEKS and had been treated terribly by other dealerships. I'm a woman that does my homework, I knew what make of car I wanted, did car fax's on them then would go to the Consumer Reports s other dealerships. I'm a woman that does my homework, I knew what make of car I wanted, did car fax's on them then would go to the Consumer Reports site, THEN make an appointment to test drive said cars. To say I was treated with little respect at these Dealerships is an understatement, one even told me to bring my husband in, another asked "What color car are you looking for?" Imagine? I happened upon the Dan Perkins Subaru site as it had brought up 2 Toyotas that I was interested in late Saturday night. I checked the hours and decided to take a chance and call the next day which was Sunday. The ride to the Dealership was approximately 90 mins. I called and happened to have Jeffery Watkins answer. I told him the distance, what I was interested in, what I had to spend and that I didn't want to waste his time or mine. We concluded the conversation with Mr. Watkins saying "If you come all the way down here and test drive and like one of the cars, I will make it happen". Needless to say I took a chance and took a ride. In the confusion with construction on the roads that are unfamiliar to me "Samantha" was wonderful as well. Her voice smiled if that makes sense. She guided me and never lost her patience or her sunny attitude. Technically Samantha is the first contact anyone has when calling the Dealership. This young woman is a gem, you're fortunate to have her. I was fortunate to have her there. Mr. Jeffery Watkins is a very warm and down to earth man. He is confident and self assured but most importantly I was scared to death, he was calm and reassuring. He was honest. You have no idea how important that is and I should know.13 dealerships and many, many test drives in vehicles that in one instance didn't want to break. No, really. I test drove my car, saw Jeff inside, he said "Well what do you think?" I replied simply "I want it" Jeff made that happen. To refer to him as Mr. Watkins is indeed the proper way I should be referring to him as, but that's to stuffy and formal for him, so yes Jeff made that happen. Samantha stayed past closing to help with everything. Never did her smile or attitude change. She kept saying "I am SO happy for you" I asked for a hug from her and was gladly given one. Poor Mr. Watkins didn't have a chance, I just had to hug him. I want you all to know that I asked how to write a review. So many people are so quick to complain, not enough of them take the time to say "Thank You" to them properly. I certainly hope I just did. P.S. My car was decorated and front and center the day I picked it up. Balloons attached to the wipers, little gifts... but inside a Podium also decorated with floating balloons with a poster with my name on it, congratulating me on my new car. Never, ever, had I ever had that, or felt so special about a purchase. Thank You again... And yes, I have told everyone I know. Now I've told you too. They are worth whatever ride you have to take to get to them. Sincerely, please simple refer to me as "Ms. E". More
We just had the most amazing experience at Dan Perkins Subaru in Milford, CT Not only did we purchase the perfect car, but we were helped by an incredible salesperson. Her name is Regina Golden. Make n Subaru in Milford, CT Not only did we purchase the perfect car, but we were helped by an incredible salesperson. Her name is Regina Golden. Make note of her name because she's a "gem". Regina was very knowledgeable about the vehicle we were purchasing (Subaru Forester 2014) and answered all questions thoroughly and proficiently. She was extremely accommodating and could not have been more helpful as we contemplated what options to select. After the car was ready, she checked to make sure everything was done to our satisfaction. She then explained all the mechanics of the car in a very understandable and patient manner. We highly recommend Regina Golden as an outstanding salesperson. She is certainly the best we have ever come across when purchasing a car. Hope she stays at Dan Perkins Subaru because we will be back to purchase another car in the very near future. More

Buying a car for me was the most stressful experience ever. Going from place to place looking at different models to finding out how much it would cost crazy!!! Its not until I got a call from Christine ever. Going from place to place looking at different models to finding out how much it would cost crazy!!! Its not until I got a call from Christine after filling out an inquiry online telling me about Dan Perkins Subaru that things started to look positive. She set me up with shawn, and from the moment I walked in I knew I was one, walking out with a car, and I felt at home. The experience was almost painless, they got me the car I wanted verses the car I was going to settle for at the same price and gave me financing much lower then anywhere else. George the finance rep explained everything as to my payments and made sure that I got the best rate. Let me just say if you ever want to purchase a car come here because not only they have subarus but all other types of cars with their lifetime warranty. These guys and their team are family now, I would only buy a car here. More
I lease a 2014 Subaru Forester from Dan Perkins of Milford and I absolutely love it! It's such a smooth ride and the overall image of the car is just perfect. I had test driven many other SUV's and th Milford and I absolutely love it! It's such a smooth ride and the overall image of the car is just perfect. I had test driven many other SUV's and there is just no comparison for me. My fiance and I walked in knowing what we wanted with having done a lot of research as to which vehicles were best in the snow/rain. If you get a chance to test drive the forester- DO IT! If you have other suv's in mind you should save this one for last. The best for last! :) My salesmen Kevin P. was wonderful! He was thorough and kept me informed on everything about the car and my purchase. There were times I was in contact with Kevin multiple times a day for my own questions. He was always kind and went out of his way to make sure I was taken care of. He never came across as pushy or rude. Kevin was perfectly informed on the forester, so helpful and if i had a question about the financial specs he got back to me within a reasonable amount of time. Kevin is definitely an honest and trustworthy salesman. We highly recommend Dan Perkins in Milford because of our great experience with Kevin and the absolutely beautiful perfect 2014 forester! More
