Chris knows his Subaru products! I was very pleased with my experience with Chris. Yesterday I looked at a new Outback and had a test drive. I should tell you that I haven't purchased I was very pleased with my experience with Chris. Yesterday I looked at a new Outback and had a test drive. I should tell you that I haven't purchased a new car in over 35 years and was a bit confused as the process has changed a lot over the years. Chris walked me through what was involved from the practical to the technical and explained the financial considerations. In response to a question from me, I learned that Chris has been marketing Subaru's for 17 years. I was not surprised to hear that. If you have the pleasure of dealing with Chris, you will find yourself in good hands with a very knowledgeable and experienced professional. I did not buy a new car yesterday and I was not pressured to do so...I like that! A big part of a successful large purchase like a car is the "comfort factor". If I do go with a Subaru, I'm confident that I will have a pleasant experience by trading with Chris Smith. More

Best financial deal for the latest, greatest car.

I received a terrific trade-in on my old car, and the exact car I wanted with all the latest tech gadgets (GPS, eye-sight intelligent cruise control, etc). He arranged a 3-year lease with payments of about $160/month including everything.!!! More

Subaru #4 This '08 Outback is my fourth Subaru. In '06, the first was a new Forester, in '10, an '07 Outback, in '16, a '13 Outback and now this one. I really This '08 Outback is my fourth Subaru. In '06, the first was a new Forester, in '10, an '07 Outback, in '16, a '13 Outback and now this one. I really prefer the older, smaller Outbacks. They ride and handle to my liking and they have better visibility and appear to be much more solid than the newer, larger models. They also have better standard equipment for my needs. I particularly find the countdown timer very useful in determining how long it takes to get from place to place. Three Outbacks were purchased from salesman, Chris Smith. He was assisted by Mike Henry on this latest regression to an '08 Outback. Chris is very solid in his knowledge of Subaru's and is an able, helpful and professional sales person. This is why I've continued to have him handle my last three automobile purchases. Mike filled in nicely while Chris was off on the first day when I tested the latest car. He set me up with test drives, worked out the pricing and got started on the usual mountain of paperwork for the one that I purchased. Spence helped me to explore the used inventory when I was purchasing the '13 Outback. He is very personable and makes an effort to pleasantly say hello share some of his vast automotive experience. In the past, I've worked a lot with Dan Ford and he is always knowledgeable, helpful and understanding. I usually seek him out whenever my vehicles are in for service. It's been fun to complete the financial matters with Tim and he has been especially helpful in getting me repair warranties on the last two vehicles. He exudes an exceptional sense of humor along with the ability to quickly and efficiently get us through all the necessary financial documents. One time when Tim wasn't available, Traci, in her pleasant and efficient manner, made some phone calls to obtain information for the first extended warranty on the '13 Outback. I remember Curt as a service writer when the dealership was still on Speedway. He always seemed to know the right answers to most of my service questions. Tucson Subaru is a beautiful facility and it is only appropriate that the staff and management be highly competent as well. More
