We bought a very sophisticated car but he took the time to explain the details. We have talked a few times he is not a pushy salesman but a good person that you can trust when buying a car. Tom Portee helped me with the financing part another straight forward good person explaining the contract which was relatively simple without a lot of miscellenous charges. Would definitely recommend this dealer. More

Pleasant, Quick and Easy John, Tom and the rest of the Liberty Subaru staff were some of the nicest people we've dealt with. My husband and I visited a few Subaru dealers, loo John, Tom and the rest of the Liberty Subaru staff were some of the nicest people we've dealt with. My husband and I visited a few Subaru dealers, looking for a used car, and found one online that fit our needs at Liberty Subaru. I called and spoke with John, who was very informative and pleasant from the start. We drove through 2.5 hours of traffic (from Brooklyn) and we were warmly received, with the car ready to be shown. They were so accommodating, and willing to work with us on cost, which is always helpful. After deciding to move forward with the purchase, we met with Tom in finance, who was equally knowledgeable and very friendly. The entire process, from arrival to finished paperwork took us less than the drive to get there. Furthermore, when we went to pick up the car (after detailing etc.) on the following Saturday morning, the whole staff was sweet, congratulated us on the purchase and there was even an employee dog there greeting us! As a huge dog lover, it was just the cherry on the cake to a wonderful experience I would HIGHLY recommend that anyone visit these fine folks for ANY Subaru needs. It was the most pleasant dealership experience I've had so far. More

Friendly, relaxed atmosphere My wife and I were very satisfied with our experience at Liberty Subaru. A friendly, relaxed atmosphere. No exaggerated sales pitch or pressure tact My wife and I were very satisfied with our experience at Liberty Subaru. A friendly, relaxed atmosphere. No exaggerated sales pitch or pressure tactics. Mike Gallo provided us with all the facts and figures we needed. He must have done a good job because we left with a deal in hand for a new 2018 Subaru Forester. The fact that this dealership is close to my home only adds to my satisfaction. I would absolutely recommend coming here. More

We had our new car in mind and the Salesman, Dan Lidestri, helped us seal the deal! When we picked up the car Dan gave us a quick lesson on its features and the Finance guy, Tom Portee, made the final transaction nice and smooth If and when we are in the market for a new car we will definitely return! Their Service Department is also top-notch. More

Best Auto Buying Experience - EVER! There was total transparency throughout every step of the buying process. There were no hidden surprises. There were no pressure tactics. Brian prov There was total transparency throughout every step of the buying process. There were no hidden surprises. There were no pressure tactics. Brian provided me with a price via email for the model with the EXACT options I had requested. When I asked what other fees/add-ons there might be, he provided me with an "out the door" quote which included the sales tax, the dealer documentation fee (a reasonable, for NJ, $395) and he even included the $7.50 NJ tire fee. When I arrived at the dealership to look at the available inventory at that quoted price there were several on the lot to choose from and a bunch more scheduled to be delivered to the dealership in the near future - so I had my choice of colors. There was absolutely no pressure to make a decision on the spot, but I decided to go with one of the vehicles already in inventory. When Brian worked up the sales order, it was EXACTLY as he had quoted. I didn't need to haggle. I didn't need to meet with his manager or wait for Brian to go back and forth between me and his manager. He was empowered to make the deal at that price - a price with which I was totally satisfied after having done extensive research and using several pricing services (Consumer Reports, Edmunds, KBB, etc..). On a side note, the dealership is dog-friendly. While we were there, we met the owner who had his beautiful dog (a rescue) in the showroom. They have a pet exercise area outside. They also sponsor pet adoption events and are very involved in other community events and fundraisers. I signed the sales order on Saturday and returned to pick up the vehicle today. I sat with the Tom, who was the finance person. He had everything ready to go and in line with what I was expecting. I had independently calculated the monthly payment and his documents had the exact amount as I had calculated. He NEVER pressured me to buy an extended warranty or any other "extras". Brian took the time to thoroughly explain all of the cars features and functions and answered all my questions. The car was perfectly clean and detailed and I drove away a very happy customer. I can say I have never felt this satisfied with any of my previous auto purchases and I have purchased many. I give Liberty Subaru the highest marks for honesty, integrity, transparency and civic-mindedness. They are truly nice people and I will definitely return and I will definitely refer them to anyone looking to purchase a car. More
