Our experience at Brewster Subaru was excellent. I am actually stunned at the ease of buying a car. No pushy sales people. No hidden agendas. Kristen H and Rich J were extremely helpful and knowledg I am actually stunned at the ease of buying a car. No pushy sales people. No hidden agendas. Kristen H and Rich J were extremely helpful and knowledgeable when it came to the car and the sales required. Even Andre was available for us to test drive the car (we came back twice in one day). It is so awesome to see colleagues helping each other out. This dealership was friendly and responsive and even worked after hours to deal with some unexpected (and atypical) insurance issues. They also heard our concerns and addressed them before we purchased the car. The next time we need to a buy a car, we will for certain, be back! More

Our experience at Brewster Honda was nothing short of exceptional. After a disappointing shift in ownership at our previous dealer, we found a refreshing change at Brewster Subaru. From the warm welcome exceptional. After a disappointing shift in ownership at our previous dealer, we found a refreshing change at Brewster Subaru. From the warm welcome we received to the friendly and knowledgeable sales consultant, it was evident that customer relationships were valued. The general manager took the time to introduce himself, adding a personal touch to our visit, and the business manager ensured a seamless final transaction by addressing all our last-minute questions. We highly recommend Brewster Honda and look forward to fostering a continued long-term relationship with them. More
