Professional, friendly and accomodating! Needing a vehicle in one week, I set up an online search for a Subaru. I was quickly contacted by several dealerships, and only the Liberty sales cons Needing a vehicle in one week, I set up an online search for a Subaru. I was quickly contacted by several dealerships, and only the Liberty sales consultant, David Finkel, delivered on his claim. When the day after the purchase, I brought the vehicle back to the dealership due to a blue tooth issue, even though David was serving another client, he accomodated me by arranging to have Dan, another sales consultant, work with me to fix the problem. David, DJ and Kevin, the finance manager, made this experience the simplest and most pleasureable car purchase ever. 11 yrs ago I bought my first Subaru at Liberty, and I'll go to Liberty first when I plan to purchase the next one.

A great experience after spending 3 days of "bait & switch" I went to Liberty Subaru after an exhausting day at another Dealership. I met with Steve Klein and bought a 2015 Subaru Forester 1/2 hour later. It w I went to Liberty Subaru after an exhausting day at another Dealership. I met with Steve Klein and bought a 2015 Subaru Forester 1/2 hour later. It was a pleasant visit consisting of facts, as opposed to pressure sales. I would highly recommend this Dealership to family & friends. More

Upfront, friendly, efficient I do not enjoy the idea of having to get a new car. I would rather be thinking about an umpteen number of other things. But this was a necessity so I do not enjoy the idea of having to get a new car. I would rather be thinking about an umpteen number of other things. But this was a necessity so I went through the motions, researching researching researching to the point of confusion and migraine. Crunching numbers, familiarizing myself with sales tactics and negotiation strategies (very few of which I cared about). I was at the stage where I was calling ahead to make this process more efficient for a husband and father of two small children. Danny seemed to understand this and was very clear, professional, and upfront since call #1. I think both he and I knew Subarus kind of sell themselves. The transactions were quick, his follow up with honest and thorough, and he respected my limited time. Though I knew I had to sign a bunch of money away to someone at the conclusion of this process, Kevin the finance manager was friendly, helped me save a ton, and was uber-respectful of the fact that I had to get my daughter in 30 minutes so he was very efficient. These interactions easily convinced me to drive past the closer Subaru service centers to reward Liberty Subaru with my continued business. I highly recommend! More

First Subaru It was a pleasure working with Dan Meola. He did not put any pressure on me. When we finished the deal over the phone price was very reasonable but wh It was a pleasure working with Dan Meola. He did not put any pressure on me. When we finished the deal over the phone price was very reasonable but when I went to purchase the car price came up little higher than what we agreed. It was still fair price for the car, so can't complain. I can't say same things about finance guy Kevin. He tried to increase price of the car by adding some strange interest rates and asking for a down payment. He made some calculations that no one would understand. Try not to deal with him if you can. Thank you Dan for making this process easy. More

Liberty made buying a car easy! After shopping in person at another dealer, I decided to buy a 2015 Forester Limited. Unfortunately the other dealers made the buying process diffi After shopping in person at another dealer, I decided to buy a 2015 Forester Limited. Unfortunately the other dealers made the buying process difficult. They would not negotiate over the phone and one told me that they added a mandatory $199 to the price of the car for etching the windows with the VIN number... not something that I was willing to pay for. I called Liberty and spoke with Clayton Earl. I told him the best pricing I received on TrueCar and asked what we could do. He matched the price which was $2500 off of MSRP. This was a better deal for me because the other dealer was 20 miles from my home and Liberty was just 6 miles away. I drove to the dealership, met Clayton and the paperwork was done within 15 minutes! No sales pressure, no let me take this to may manager nonsense and no up-selling - well he did offer the extended warrantee but he did not hard sell it and moved on when I said no. With the options that I wanted, he said that I would have the car within 2 weeks. Well the car was actually ready in just 4 days! I could not have been happier with the process of buying a new car!

Superb Buying Experience Just got back home after purchasing a 2015 Subaru Legacy for my mother today. I'm a no BS kind of guy and I reached out to many many dealerships in t Just got back home after purchasing a 2015 Subaru Legacy for my mother today. I'm a no BS kind of guy and I reached out to many many dealerships in the area for a no nonsense price and a quick transaction. The way I like to buy cars is to get an out the door price before I set foot in the dealership, and then I'm in and out in one visit. Needless to say, many dealerships didn't make the cut. My expectations were fully met at Liberty Subaru. Dan Meola was fantastic to work with, he gave me an out the door price immediately and was very informative on what he needed to close the deal. My only minor gripe was that the car came almost a month after it was supposed to, but there was a bad weather spell and as we all know s*** happens. He was up front about the delays and prompt with his replies, so no harm no foul. In person, he was just as friendly and knowledgeable. Kevin Mark was the finance guy and he was also superb to work with. Unlike many finance guys who are absolutely irritating when it comes to pushing warranties, Kevin just asked straight up whether we wanted any extras. When we said no that was the end of that. Can't say enough good things about Kevin, we were in and out of there in less than ten minutes as well. All in all, superb dealership. If you want a quick deal at a fair price with no BS, I can't recommend Dan Meola and Kevin Mark enough. Thanks again and happy holidays guys. More
