Customer's Corner


Testimonials from Happy Customers!  Both Premier Subaru and Premier KIA are eligible for DealerRater's famed Dealer of the Year award!  Please feel free to leave a happy testimonial about your experience for Subaru or for KIA.

We were very happy with the experience of buying a new car from Premier. Tony Gagnon turned our trip from looking for a new car into buying a new car. Tony was a great match for us as he reminded us of one of our sons and he explained every item in the car with detail. He was very excited and knowledgable about the car. You made the process very easy and we appreciated that.We would definitely reccomend you (Tony) and Premier Subaru to our friends and family. I am so happy to be the owner of a 2015 Subaru Forester and also to be part of the Subaru Family.

After talking to my insurance company, they gave me a list of certified dealers and I spoke to Brian at Premier Kia and got a good feel for the car I was looking for and the dealership. We decided the best way to acquire the car would be to take the trainS (yes plural). Starting from Toms River, NJ, I drove to Long Branch and got the Train to NY Penn, then took the subway train to Grand Central, at that time we walked to find the connection to the Metro North Train. After arriving at New Haven, Nathan picked us up at the train station with My Soul car. We were greeted with friendliness and tea at the dealership. After having questions about the back tires, Mike the mechanic eased our concerns. The staff answered many questions, completed the paperwork and we were on our way back to NJ (but not by train) . Thank you, we are enjoying My Soul.
