I recently purchased a 2023 Subaru Outback for my wife as an anniversary surprise. I worked with the Anthony (Sales Consultant) and Patrick (Sales Manager) at Brewster Subaru who diligently did their absolu an anniversary surprise. I worked with the Anthony (Sales Consultant) and Patrick (Sales Manager) at Brewster Subaru who diligently did their absolute best to surprise my wife. I arrived on a Friday to verify everything was all set. Brewster Subaru purchased a large red bow for the Outback hood and the day before moved the vehicle into the showroom for delivery. We also placed candy and an anniversary card onto the Outback’s windshield. While at the dealership Patrick telephoned my wife asking for me which obviously I wasn’t home. When I arrived home I returned Patrick’s call and he informed us that there were two Outbacks in the second and third colors my wife wanted that were available to look at. The phone call was a sneaky trick to get my wife to Brewster Subaru. The next day we arrived at Brewster Subaru and my wife was totally surprised when she saw the car with the card. Anthony is also a minister so as a second surprise we renewed our wedding vows. Everyone at Brewster Subaru congratulated my wife and I after the ceremony. The General Manager even gave us a free oil change as an anniversary gift. I fully recommend Brewster Subaru because the exceptional service we received and they went way beyond what was necessary to surprise my wife. More

He explained every part of th Rich was personable he made the whole experience painless and smooth. He has the gift for putting the customer at ease. He explained every part of the financing journey clearly . In addition he was entertaining. I had a similar experience with Roy who showed me how to operate the car with all the new technology so graciously and very funny. Great staff. My sales person Greg Russo was a very patient man. When the car did not arrive when promised he patiently tried to find out the alternate delivery dates. He was right there tracking the delivery date if the car and notified me as soon as it arrive five months later. Good staff. Sometimes frustrating because of the delivery delay but I am glad I stuck it out. More
