Eastside Subaru

Isaac and Jordan were helpful We were searching for a new car to lease for a long time, few main criteria were: 1.

Not a huge SUV but also the one where a family of 4 would feel comfortable traveling long distances 2. AWD 3. Adequate fuel economy 4. Reliability After about 1.5 months of research and test drives we narrowed down our search to Subaru Forester and another brand and after even more research and evaluation decided to go with Subaru. When we first time came to the dealership for a test drive we met Isaac who was not pushy, knew features of the Forester very well, conducted a productive test drive where we had a chance to try out all the aspects of the car we were interested in. Especially we were a bit worry about number of Forester's reviews saying that despite all its great features it is not so fast/powerful. In addition we were interested in experiencing how bad the noise level is and override ride comfort. After the test drive we didn't have doubts that the aforementioned fast/power related "issues" are not issues - we just didn't experience any of those, probably it depends on type of a driver habits but for us this was definitely not a slow or anything like that car. While we were test driving it Isaac managed to point our attention to most interesting (don't know how he predicted we would like those things) features of the car in not intrusive way so he didn't really interfere in a negative way with our test driving experience while we also were discussing with each other our experience. After the test drive we exchanged contact information and then continued communication via email. I must say at that time I also was negotiating the price with another Subaru dealership who were also pretty helpful and responsive but I still decided to go with Eastside Subaru because they were a bit more patient by really answering and negotiating everything over email comparing to the another dealership where, after number of email communications, I was told at some point something like: "please stop by in person - it will be easier to discuss" which is understandable from one point of view but for me, a customer who wants to find the best deal while optimizing my time - it would just not be productive to stop by multiple dealership in person to negotiate. So, after negotiating everything via email with Isaac and couple of his co-workers, we stopped by the Eastside Subaru to sign the lease, we didn't make an appointment but just showed up. By the time we were there - Isaac was busy with other customers and to save our time we were offered help from another great Eastside Subaru employee - Jordan, who did everything without loading us with unnecessary or tiring activities (my wife leased a car with another dealership 3 months ago where we had much more involving experience of signing a lease), he only "bothered" us when it was absolutely needed, like for instance, grabbing details needed to run a credit check. On that day I was still recovering from a cold I caught few days earlier and taking into account our previous lease signing experience I was not even sure whether I could stand it on that day but Jordan managed to organize everything well and fast, the time we spent at the dealership was very adequate. We were glad Jordan helped negotiating good deal for the service maintenance as well as trading in our old car. While going through the process Jordan went through all main points again and also explained most important details of the contract, we then quickly signed financial documents and headed outside to see the car. At this moment Jordan went though the car's features inside and outside of the real car to make sure we really get at least main things prior to leaving the dealership, in addition he was pretty good answering our probably not expected/on demand questions. To summarize I can say I felt like people of Eastside Subaru are organically well organized, cooperative and productive not only with their customers but also between each other which basically helps them stay effective selling and servicing their Subarus - I evidenced they really work like a whole organism to do everything it takes to help customers fulfill their needs.

The price We were able to do all of the negotiations for our new Forester by email and text. This saved us time and travel and was much appreciated. The price given us was very fair and there was no attempt to upsell us for our purchase. We enjoyed the opportunity we had to work with Gulnaza. She was helpful, prompt to reply, and very accommodating. We look forward to dealing with Eastside Subaru in the future. Leonard Brown More
