This is a large purchase and one for which you should spend time reviewing before spending that amount of money. Because of this, I finally made that step to go in and test drive a vehicle. When I went in, the salesperson I had been emailing was not available. So I had another one. He was very friendly and informational and we went on some test drives. When test driving a car--which is a big expense--I expect the car to have enough fuel in it to go as far as I need to go to test drive my future expense. The gas was on almost empty. That was disappointing. The finance guy was great -- best experience I have ever had with the finance department. Overall, a good experience compared to previous purchases at other dealers in the past 30 years. I started looking at Subaru's because my mechanic of many years recommended this vehicle. More

Internet Sales I shopped for my vehicle online and talked with the internet salesman, "Chris Smith" through emails. I filled out the pre-approval application online I shopped for my vehicle online and talked with the internet salesman, "Chris Smith" through emails. I filled out the pre-approval application online. I came in and test drove the car I wanted and ended up buying it. I was very nervous pulling into Tucson Subaru. I have not bought a car through a dealership in a very long time. I have had nothing but negative experiences and rude sales people in the past. Tucson Subaru made me feel welcome right away. The process was painless and put me at ease. Thank you Tucson Subaru for making my experience a positive one. More

Wonderful experience We live about an 1 1/2 outside if Tucson, but made the drive to Tucson Subura, after connecting with Chris Smith via Tucson Subaru's website. After se We live about an 1 1/2 outside if Tucson, but made the drive to Tucson Subura, after connecting with Chris Smith via Tucson Subaru's website. After several text messages we found a car that would fit our needs, unfortunately it didn't fit our budget. But Chris did not give up and found another car in our budget that fit us perfectly. When we arrived he had the car ready for us to test drive and we loved it. We then moved on to Tim in finance, he was wonderful and had us driving home in our new car in no time. I am the kind of person who gets very anxious and stressed by the car buying process. I must say though that working with Chris and Tim the process flowed quickly and with no surprises. I can't thank them enough. I am very happy with our purchase and the experience! More

He was VERY knowledgeable about the ins and outs of the WRX we were interested in. We in all honesty drove 2.5 hours from Phoenix just to work with him and the great deal he got us! He was extremely patient working with our needed and specs that we wanted on our particular vehicle. He seem very concerned that we get what we wanted and did not pressure us into any add on's or options we did not want. Thanks again for your assistance Chris, we absolutely love our WRX! Side note, Tim in financing was equally helpful and knowledgeable. Thanks to all at Tucson Subaru. Some Bottled water in the waiting room could be nice. More
