An Incredible Record Broken at the Top of New England

 

 The new mark of 6 minutes, 9.09 seconds on the 7.6 mile uphill trek bests the previous world record by over 2 seconds.  The time trials were held as part of the Rally America Championship Series, and Travis Pastrana was there as well, finishing second in the event at a still awesome 6 minutes, 12.29 seconds. 


Anyone that has ever been up the Mt. Washington Auto Road is well aware of the dangerously winding trail with no side rails available.  This makes the mark set by Higgins all the more astounding. 

Don't forget our new Owner's Clinic

Premier Subaru wants to remind you of our next New Owner's Clinic on Tuesday, August 5, 2014, at 6:00 p.m.  will show you how to get the most out of your Subaru, including dependability, safety, and fuel mileage, and to keep your total maintenance costs down.  If you would like to learn more about our products or services, I encourage you to contact us at 1(800) 411-4551 or visit us at 150 North Main Street, Branford, CT. 



Kia Soul + wins Ward's Best Car Interiors 

  

The Kia Soul + has been announced as one of the top 10 Best Car Interiors by WardsAuto, joining a group that includes the Mercedes-Benz S-Class and the Chrysler 200. Five years ago, WardsAuto honored the then-debuted Soul as having the "grooviest interior" in the industry. The redesigned cabin now offers additional comfort, space, ergonomics, and value. Also, the two-tone scheme that the Soul now comes into combines aesthetic elements, neon-green accent stitching, and an instrument panel with an upright design.

Customer's Corner


 
Notes from Happy Customers! Here are some reviews from Dealerrater.com - you can view others here and here.

We took home our first Subaru this past Tuesday, after several months of looking. We test drove an Impreza with Ted Astarita over a month ago, and we had intended to take out a competitor's car to compare last Saturday. However, since those had not arrived, we returned to Subaru, and made our choice. Aside from the obvious reasons, the many amazing features, safety, reliability and gas economy of the car, our salesperson was a huge factor in making our experience great. Ted was attentive, knowledgeable, and patient, addressing our questions and concerns candidly and energetically, even following up a few days later to make sure we didn't have more questions. We had an excellent experience and would recommend Ted and Premier Subaru to friends and family for sure.

I bought a certified used 2013 Kia Optima with only 14,110 miles.  I had a couple of issues with seatbelt and body side panel, (but) they were more than willing to accommodate me to rectify these issues.
