I began working with Lance Willhite when researching a new Outback. Lance has been wonderful from start to finish. He has always been very friendly and accommodating. Lance was easy to work with and his new Outback. Lance has been wonderful from start to finish. He has always been very friendly and accommodating. Lance was easy to work with and his laid back approach was very appreciated. I also wanted to mention our experience with Mike Anderson whom we worked with for financing. Mike was very knowledgeable and contributed to making this new car purchase an easy experience as well. More

I have got to say that Subaru of Gwinnett provided me with the best dealer expierence of my life. I am 60 years old and have dealt with numerous car dealers over the years. Usually I dread the expierenc with the best dealer expierence of my life. I am 60 years old and have dealt with numerous car dealers over the years. Usually I dread the expierence. None of them come remotely close to providing the positive expierence of SOG. I knew what I wanted when I called and worked with Lance over the phone and negoiated the price. No BS, he was very straight forward and came in $600.00 cheaper than any other dealer. Most of the paperwork was done by the time I walked in the door, the car was ready to go. I was selling my 2010 Honda Accord to a third party who was meeting me at SOG to complete the deal. Lance and Mike were very welcoming to my cars' buyers, even though they had nothing to gain from the deal. Lance lent us his desk to complete the transaction. Lance even went out and filled my car up with gas for the new owners. WOW! I was blown away. I can't say enough good things about the guys at SOG, straight forward, honest, no preassure, no hype and the best pricing around. And the best part is I love my new Silver Outback Limited. More

Lance Willhite was AWESOME! We worked with Lance Lance Willhite was AWESOME! We worked with Lance primarily over the internet as we live in Florida and were looking for certain options on a '13 Ou Lance Willhite was AWESOME! We worked with Lance primarily over the internet as we live in Florida and were looking for certain options on a '13 Outback before they were widely available here in FL in AUG of '12. SOGwinnett had the options we were looking for based on their online inventory/website. Our challenge was a 2011 Honda Pilot trade in. Lance was able to provide an excellent trade in offer that seriously exceeded what other dealers were able to provide. We took a leap of faith --driving all the way up to Atlanta with our trade in (wife and two children under 3) to execute the purchase and trade in. We were concerned that the offer quoted over email based on info provided and pictures of our trade in - inside and out - would not be honored and we'd be placed in a "take it or leave it" position but this never happened with Lance and the team at Gwinnett. They inspected our vehicle as we inspected the new one and there was never any issues whatsoever! Everything stated over email and the phone was honored. We also appreciated Lance's assistance with getting the car tinted and a remote starter installed before we showed up. Finally, they took care of our FL title and registration for us...no issues as an out of state customer. There was one issue with regards to documentation of the amount of the trade in that would have impacted the taxable value of the new vehicle for me but once i pointed it out--they made the correction on the spot. This is our first Subaru and we must say that we walked away with a great car and an extremely positive experience from Lance and the entire team there at Gwinnett. We wholeheartedly would recommend Lance to anyone and would recommend anyone in the region to check with Gwinnett before going final with their local dealer. Our apologies for the late submission. Merry Christmas More

Lance was very helpful and friendly. Everyone that I came in contact with made me feel welcome and that they appreciated my business and I felt no pressure through the whole buying experience. Mihaela, came in contact with made me feel welcome and that they appreciated my business and I felt no pressure through the whole buying experience. Mihaela, who I learned has only been at this location a few days was very nice as well and worked with my salesperson Lance to get me a great rate and through the paperwork for buying my new Crossfire convertible in no time at all. It seemed as though the had been doing together for years based on how smoothly they worked togehter to take care of me during my purchase. The atmosphere was very comfortable in this small dealership, much more laid back and no where near the pressure you feel at some of the larger dealers in the area. None of the back and forth haggling and trips to talk to managers for secret conversation. They were up front about everything and took time to go over maintenance records and a CARFAX report for the car I was considering. I would definitely go back to them when it is time for my next automobile purchase. Overall, it was a great experience and I am enjoying my first few days with the top down thanks to the good people at Subaru of Gwinnett! More

I would recommend this dealership to anyone looking for a new car. In dealing with other dealerships, even ones that give good service, I have always had to have my guard up against being charged too much. H new car. In dealing with other dealerships, even ones that give good service, I have always had to have my guard up against being charged too much. However, at Subaru of Gwinnett both Jennifer and Lance were on *my* team to help me into a new car.
