Beyer Subaru of Alexandria

I began my car search with Consumer Reports. That led me to (primarily) Honda and Subaru. After 20 years of owning Hondas getting another Honda was admittedly my strong preference, but Consumer Reports and other sites kept leading me to Subaru. Over several interactions with various dealerships and after extensive online searching, I bought a car at Beyer Subaru. The reasons are simple: 1. It is the car I want (safe, reliable, durable, intuitive to use, my size) 2. Configured as I want (great optional packages and accessories), 3. Not insanely expensive (unlike luxury brands) and, also important, 4. Comes with helpful, relaxed sales and service assistance. Jeffrey was my sales person who never once tried to sell me anything but instead provided the information I requested in a gentle, no-pressure yet quickly-responsive and present manner. He was truly well informed, and in the few cases when he didnt know the answer he quickly found it out for me. Never once did he display any arrogance or greed, nor did any of the others on the Subaru team (how different from other car sales experiences). After quite a lot of consideration it was a close tie between Honda and Subaru. What finally decided it was the Subaru staff, their helpfulness, teamwork, flexibility, knowledge, cheerfulness, comfort level with my indecision and questions, and simplicity of the whole interaction. They even liked my dog and were happy with her in the sales and service area! Yes, I absolutely recommend Beyer Subaru, especially Jeffrey.
