Peter is exceptional. Certainly "not your average car salesman" as others have said. In fact, he is far above his peers. He approaches his work with integrity, patience, knowledge, and good humor. car salesman" as others have said. In fact, he is far above his peers. He approaches his work with integrity, patience, knowledge, and good humor. He really believes in his product (in our case the impreza) but more important (and we believe this is what sets him apart) - he truly cares about his customers. Through every phase of the car-buying process, Peter treated us with respect and care. We felt he appreciated us as people, even when we might have made him crazy through our long and obsessional car-buying process! He's also great company and we really enjoyed the time we spent with him. Overall, a great person who believes in his work and seems to really enjoy it. many thanks!! More

I had the pleasure of working with Mark Lidano who was a terrific salesperson. He was straightforward and patient which were qualities that enabled me to trust him almost instantaneously. He was very prof terrific salesperson. He was straightforward and patient which were qualities that enabled me to trust him almost instantaneously. He was very professional and reserved judgment with regard to identifying which of the two car models would be the best one for me so as to allow me to come to the conclusion myself. He allowed me to test drive both models and took me on a route that allowed me to see how the cars drove in both city and highway traffic which I appreciated. The buying process went so smoothly from start to finish that it really took the terror out of the car buying process for me. This was the first time that I purchased a car from a dealership and if this is how smoothly the process can go then CitySide Subaru sets a very high bar for other dealerships. Michael Nelson was extremely organized and made the process of securing a great interest rate for my car loan and the signing of the paperwork a breeze. Robert Krasow was attentive as well and responded to my initial email in a timely manner. He helped to remove my City of Boston parking sticker from my trade in vehicle and did a great job of maintaining the integrity of sticker. All in all, I had an outstanding experience at Cityside Subaru and believe that I purchased a vehicle that is a perfect fit for me. Thank you all for helping to make that happen for me:). More

Found this Greater Boston area dealership through AAA's new car buying service for Members. Best price in area for the Outback model we purchased. Great overall experience. Staff is polite, atte AAA's new car buying service for Members. Best price in area for the Outback model we purchased. Great overall experience. Staff is polite, attentive, professional and all aspects of the purchase decision were transacted without pressure. My past car purchases were rarely this easy. Have had the car now for less than 2 weeks and my wife and I are really enjoying it. Would definitely recommend the dealership to others interested in the purchase of a Subaru. More

Living in New England and during our recent storms, I knew my car wasn't right for me. After deciding on a Subaru I shopped dealerships and found that CitySide had the best and knowledgable associates. knew my car wasn't right for me. After deciding on a Subaru I shopped dealerships and found that CitySide had the best and knowledgable associates. I live in Ct. And currently going through chemotherapy. One of the salesmen drove the car to me and helped me with the paperwork and registration and then took my trade in back with him. This is what Customer Service is all about. "Going above and beyond". I love my new Impreza and have survived 2 big storms getting to and from work without any issues. Thank you ! More

We were given a great deal on a new (2013) Outback and were given a fair trade on our old vehicle. Mark walked us through every step of the sale very professionally and patiently. We never felt pressured or like we were being taken advantage of. Everyone treated us fairly, gave us factual information, and it was truly a pleasure doing business with the folks at Cityside Subaru. I would recommend this dealership for anyone looking to buy a new Subaru More

One was in NH, the other was Cityside. Both were winnowed from research done through Consumer Reports online "Build & Buy" program (highly recommend). Edmonds has a similar service which is also very good. Long story short, we never made it to NH and bought an Outback Premium within a half hour of arrival. The negotiations were relaxed and, more importantly, face to face with Rob Krasow and Aleksey. Michael and Nelson were also low key and helpful as initial, and then final, paperwork was completed. We had a trade in, and perhaps could have made more money on it, especially through a private sale, but to avoid the hassle of the latter and because Cityside's offer was justifiably fair (plus the equally fair price on the Outback itself), we felt it was an overall good deal for us. Pickup was uneventful, and Aleksey spent approximately an hour with us going over key sections of the various manuals, and in the car itself to highlight its principal features. Overall, it was as pleasant and uneventful a car purchase as one could hope for, and we would highly recommend Cityside. More
