I had a very good experience at New Motors leasing my 2026 WRX. It was very easy and convenient. I did my negotiations via email and and agreed to a price on line. After arriving at the dealership, Mike 2026 WRX. It was very easy and convenient. I did my negotiations via email and and agreed to a price on line. After arriving at the dealership, Mike Francis was there to greet me, and had the car ready for me to test drive. He pointed out the operation of most the controls and amenities. While at the dealership, I received a call that a contractor was going to be coming to my home to install an appliance that I had been waiting on. I mentioned it to Mike. He gave me the option of waiting to meet with the IF person or come back the next day. I chose to stay and he was able to get me into see the IF person almost immediately. The IF person, Michelle Happy, was very personable and easy to work with. She got through the process quickly, and on my way. Overall, my Experience was very good, and I would 100% recommend the dealership to any of my friends that might be considering a Subaru. I will add that at no time did I feel pressured to do or buy anything. Yes, things were offered, but there was no hard sales pitch to purchase them. More

Mike Francis and the team at New Motor’s Subaru were amazing! It was a stress free process which we had never experienced before! The whole team was very transparent and listened to all of our questions amazing! It was a stress free process which we had never experienced before! The whole team was very transparent and listened to all of our questions. We walked in at 5:15 without an appointment, test drove a car and walked out at 7:15 in our new car! We have never had a finance manager come out to meet us and walk us back to his open door office that is visible from the front door! We will definitely be keeping our business with them. More

Came in 2 separate occasions to discuss and test drive Subarus, both sales people (Mike and Stephen) were extremely nice and accommodating.

Had a great car buying experience at New Motors Subaru in Erie, PA on July 31, 2025. Shane Harney initiated the sale for me and Mike Francis spent hours facilitating the buy. Mike was instrumental in getti Erie, PA on July 31, 2025. Shane Harney initiated the sale for me and Mike Francis spent hours facilitating the buy. Mike was instrumental in getting me up to speed with all the “bells and whistles”! He took time to make sure I knew my way around the instrument panel, pared my IPhone and got me connected with My Subaru! Very patient and unhurried… Michelle Happy did a great job with the financial end of things! General Mgr., Andrew Volant, was the key to getting the numbers where they needed to be. All and all, this buying experience was very easy and relaxed and I would recommend New Motors for anyone interested in buying a Subaru! I’m one happy customer… Jack Pianta More
