I know this isn't a specific dealership post per se, however since I bought my car from Tor when he was at Timmons after which he moved to Renick Subaru, I don't know what else to do. Regardless, I think someone who has built such a great reputation in the Southern California area deserves to have his own thread.

When I finally decided to get my RS after about a year of careful researching, I asked the kind folks on the i-club and was urged to go to Timmons and talk to Tor. When I got there with my folks I had already test driven different RS at numerous dealerships yet Tor insisted that I go for another ride and just handed me the keys. I was a little stunned that he trusted me so much to take the car out for a spin alone. At any rate, upon my return we discussed the price and without any pressure what-so-ever, Tor simply told me his invoice (which I already knew) and then added a little profit which we agreed was fair and viola! I finally had an RS of my very own! :)

Tor is great. I was really "turned off" by another local Subie dealer for numerous reasons that I won't get into here. I posted a "who to go to" thread and found out about Tor Johnson at Renick Subaru. Right from the start the whole experience was great. Not only did they work with me and give me a fantastic deal, they even let me borrow, not rent, a car when we ran out of time to finish the deal because of my work schedule. And the rest of the dealership is great, very friendly and not even a hint of "sales pressure" in any way. If your in the market for a Subaru, go see Tor at Renick, you will be glad you did!:D

How much did you get your WRX for out the door when dealing w/ TOR??
I am already planning on seeing him soon.

I'm not sure if it is a good idea to post "out the door" prices on the net, I will just say that I shopped around and the deal I got was by far better than anywhere else that I shopped. And it was without having to "haggle" at all. :p

I agree, it's not cool to give away pricing info like that. And I'll second the pleasant feeling I got when I didn't have to haggle for the price. Suffice it to say though that I thought it was a great price, and I'm a real cheap SOB! :D j/k...about the cheap part...well maybe a little...ok alot! :D

BTW, make sure you tell him that you're part of the i-club! :)
