Worth the 100 mile drive In searching for our next vehicle, the Subaru Crosstrek stood out as our best option. Living just south of Buffalo we had a couple options for Subaru In searching for our next vehicle, the Subaru Crosstrek stood out as our best option. Living just south of Buffalo we had a couple options for Subaru used vehicles, but found that New Motors had the best options at the best prices at the time. After working with their online concierge Keisha, we decided to make the almost 2 hour drive. The drive was well worth it and our salesman Stephen Kolenda was absolutely terrific. Steve was patient and took us on some “real” roads for a great test drive experience. The whole dealership was amazing- we made a very fair offer and with Steve working hard to wrap things up we were on our way home with our new vehicle in less than 5 hours from arriving from Buffalo. I would highly recommend Steve and the New Motor team. More

When we arrived we were promptly greeted by Steve. After some initial information he had the car ready for a test drive. We arrived at figures that worked for us and was ready the put a deposit down and sign. I thought that would be it for the day but to my delight he was able to work out the details to drive it home then and there. I will be back. The experience was great! More
