Got my WRX about 3 weeks after I post this, and I was really satisfied by how soft spoken and right to the point Tor Johnson was. It took me only 15 minutes to get my WRX, and it was at a good price too.
Im not sure about the service, but I have yet to test it.
Anyone here been to service at Renick Subaru, CA?

I'm invovled with their service dept. right now and when I'm done with them I will let you know how it goes. And I would just like to say that I agree with your comments about Tor 100% :p

hehehee, ya, tor is really cool.
Please post me on how your service went man!! I really want to change my oil after 1000 miles, so if you can reply post back I really appreciate it.

Guys, I just got my WRX from Tor Johnson, and honestly... it was the best car buying experience I've had, by far. He is straight to the point, very sincere, and most of all... extremely fair with the pricing. I came to him w/ my parents, expecting to hear the same old BS: "You have to buy this car for 2000 MSRP..." Tor didn't waste our time, and if you mention the I-Club, he'll treat you even better.
If you live in Southern California, go to Renick Subaru and save a lot of time, seriously. The one thing that annoys me the most is going to different dealerships and coming back angry and empty-handed. If you come to Tor, you'll be happy.

I agree. Buying my car from Tor was by far the best experience I've had at a dealership yet.

So can anyone vouch for their service department? My first 3,000 miles are coming up...

Tor rocks. I bought my car from him 3,000miles away, over the phone, car sight unseen. He took care of everything, including shipping and all that crazy stuff. Easily the best car buying experience my family and I have ever experienced. He's incredibily knowledgable about cars, not just Subarus. When I buy my STi, guess who i'm gonna call?

Well, as you can tell from my last post on the subject, it has been a while. I am still waiting for some issues to be resolved. Tor seems to be the only one that is realy on top of things....... but he is NOT the service dept. I feel bad having to talk to him about service issues. So, as of right now I am very disapointed with the service dept. but lets see if they can get things together over the next week. I must say this is taking a lot of patience though.:(

I would still recomend buying a Suby at Renick! Tor is great! You couldn't ask for a better buying experience.:)

Ok, the WRX is back in the service dept at Renick as of yesterday, tues. Sept. 25, so lets see how it goes and if they can get everything right this time. I will say this, they did give me a rental car again so it would seem that they are doing everything they can to have a happy custamer. And the service writer, Steve, seems to be doing everything he can to get me all takin' care of. I am supposed to have the car back on Friday, so lets see what happens.;)

I'm new to this........and am looking into getting a wrx this nov.
is the renick dealer you guys are referring too the on on euclid, the one that's paired w/a cadillac dealer? is that the one that tor is at?

another question, what options do you guys recommend getting and which you found was worthless. i'm not counting the useless undercoating and pinstriping crap you find at the dealers, hehe.

thanx, any advice would be appreciated

They bought the Huntington Beach Subaru dealership. As far as options are concerned, I only went with the stuff I wanted from thew factory like the wing and sequrity system package. Pretty much everything else is available on the after market.

Hey, I went for a test drive yesterday in Long Beach. My wife and I test drove a silver WRX. Needless to say, we really enjoyed driving it, although it needs more low end torque:devil: I was wondering what kind of price did you all get?
Did many one get at least $1200.00 off msrp?
Thanks, Jay

YES:D :lol:

Anyone with real prices?

It's not right for us to give you the exact prices that we paid, its not fair to Tor and Renick Subaru. In any case, Tor will be very fair and honest with you

as for options, I just got the spoiler. I didn't feel like I needed anything else.

Ok. Everything has been dealt with on my WRX, with the exception of one noise and it is something that will be taking care of but it is being a real Booger to find. All in all I have to say that the service dept. at Renick has been great. Every issue was taking care of with out any hassle. Some times it takes a while to get parts but that is out of there hands. Because of the nature of the parts needed for my car, they all had to be special ordered. So in closing to this issue.......... Go to Renick with your service issues and they will take care of you!:D
