Jim Pattison Subaru Northshore

I just bought my first Subaru, a 2012 Impreza, from Specialty Subaru ... and the first car purchase I've done for 25 years (I probably have a world record for running a Chrysler minivan). The sales per Specialty Subaru ... and the first car purchase I've done for 25 years (I probably have a world record for running a Chrysler minivan). The sales person (Marek) accompanied me on an excellent test drive on the twisty, steep (and wet) hills of North Vancouver where I pushed the car hard, with no complaints from Mark (I think he was amused) and none from the car either (it sticks like glue to slippery roads). I did my research re pricing before sitting down with Mark to "negotiate". This went very smoothly from my perspective. The Impreza is a popular car so I got less than I would have liked (who doesn't), but I got a whole lot more car for the price than the best alternative (and the price was reasonable). I am well satisfied. I came back the next day and the car (with a full tank of gas) was ready to go. The turnover was very smooth and, indeed, fun (I stayed around and chatted awhile with the different staff). p.s. Yesterday (a week after purchase), I decided that I needed roof racks and some other accessories. Specialty Subaru came through excellently ... both with a discount AND no service charge for installation.. Bottom line ... I love my new Subaru and I very much look forward to continuing my relationship with Specialty Subaru. More
