Before joining the New Motors team he sold and delivered hand crafted hardwood furniture at The Amish Buggy. He chose to start a career selling Subarus because of the great experience his wife had buying a 2009 Legacy at New Motors. In his free time you can find him out on a golf course chasing around the little white ball, riding his bicycle around Presque Isle state park or working in his garden planting seeds and pulling weeds.

October Surprise! I reached out to Stephen Kolenda based on a recommendation from a mutual friend to help search for a small SUV. We communicated via email and narrowed I reached out to Stephen Kolenda based on a recommendation from a mutual friend to help search for a small SUV. We communicated via email and narrowed the search down to a few vehicles to test drive. He hustled. Always quickly responding to my questions. Once at the dealership I wasn't super excited about the options I picked. Stephen encouraged me to look at the Subaru Outback that included all of the items I was searching for (low miles, sunroof, good price). It's amazing! I'm so happy with my purchase. Nicole quickly got the paper work in order and clearly answered all of my questions. The dealership is top notch. The employees are friendly. I would recommend Stephen to friends and family. It was a great experience. Surprising to me I walked away a Subaru Owner. It's not just a car....it's a lifestyle! More

Stephen Kolenda Everytime! I could not have asked for a better first-time purchase! I began browsing the lot for a car I had seen online as Steve Kolenda came out to greet me. I could not have asked for a better first-time purchase! I began browsing the lot for a car I had seen online as Steve Kolenda came out to greet me. As nervous as I was that this salesman was going to give me a typical sales pitch; it was the complete opposite. Steve went out of his way to make sure that I was confident and comfortable with what I was purchasing. I told him my max monthly budget, down payment, and he made it happen beyond my expectations. The entire process was a breeze and I had so much fun doing so- I know my purchase would not have been the same without Steve. I will surely be back for my GLK 350! Thank you, Steve!! More

Painless I had some anxiety about going in to lease a new car even though I knew what I wanted when I walked in. From the moment Stephen introduced himself, I I had some anxiety about going in to lease a new car even though I knew what I wanted when I walked in. From the moment Stephen introduced himself, I instantly felt a lot better. He made me feel welcome and comfortable throughout the entire process. He found me exactly what I was looking for without any fuss, and was very knowledgeable. So glad I went to New. More
