17 Reasons to Buy Your Next Subaru at Planet
These are Common Black-Headed Gulls (L. ridibundus) that nest on the Planet Mother Ship in Hanover. They are among the many critters who are attracted by Planet's nature preserve.
No polyester at Planet!
It is nearly impossible to become a Purchase Partner at Planet Subaru if you previously worked in the car business. (If the benefits to you of this approach are not obvious, you haven't been to a typical dealership lately!) We find educated professionals and then teach them our ethical way of selling cars. And they just won't leave! Five of the eleven people who opened Planet Subaru on October 2, 1998 are still on the team. Across the country, approximately 50% of car salespeople turn over every year while the Planet average is a small fraction of that. To meet our special team, click here.
Diversity
Most dealerships have a difficult time recruiting women because they wouldn't work in a typical dealership environment, but eight women strengthen the Planet team: accountants, sales experts, service advisors, even our shop manager!
Your undealership
We offer an experience unlike the disappointments you've had at the typical dealership. Upfront pricing and no deceptive advertising. No tricks or games. Our friendly professionals will show you the great life on our Planet! Click here to see the Planet Way of doing business with you.
Faster inventory turns = lower prices
The unspoken slogan at the typical dealership is: "We cheat the next guy and pass the savings on to you." That's not the way we consistently deliver low prices. In fact, because of our large volume (we average over 100 vehicle sales per month), we can make less on each transaction and make it up in volume. The industry term for turning inventory is "sales velocity"--the faster the inventory turns the better, and Planet's people and processes are focused on high speed.
Selection you won't find anywhere else...one-stop shopping
We typically stock a couple hundred new and pre-loved Subaru's, which ranks our inventory among the largest in the country. (We turn our inventory so quickly that many of our vehicles sell before we can list them on the internet, so you should call if you don't see what you're looking for). You won't waste your time visiting Planet Subaru, because there are so many different cars to suit your needs.
We ship your new or pre-loved Planet Subaru anywhere
Delighted customers have taken delivery of a Planet Subaru in 42 states, including Hawaii and Alaska! To see the map, click here. We have such a big selection of hard-to-find Subaru's at great prices that we attract purchasers from all over. We can ship a car to most places in the US for only a few hundred dollars. We'll take the stress out of your out-of-state purchase.
Free Lunar Cars, Free Tires for Life, and a whole lot more
Free with every new car purchased at Planet, you enjoy the Planet-exclusive Passport Program that gives you free Lunar Cars for every service, Free Tires for Life, a 10 year/150,000 mile powertrain warranty, and much more. Click here for details.
Our Reputation
As a family business, we care deeply about how we are perceived in the community. When we ask our Subaru owners why they came to us, they tell us they were recommended by friends and neighbors. We try to make every daily decision to preserve our reputation for the long run.
The Fittest
Before Planet Subaru opened in 1998, FIVE Subaru dealerships had opened and closed on the South Shore. We have continued to grow through three recessions, four governors, MC Hammer, and the mustard yellow Baja. Charles Darwin would be proud.
Kaizen Quality Commitment
The Japanese word "Kaizen" loosely translates to "making the bad points good." We robustly train our team and we design bulletproof processes. When the rare mistake occurs at Planet, we take it very seriously. We convene a team to diagnose the problem and then we fix the system or retrain the person. Compared to other dealerships, Planet is a well-oiled machine.
Open Door Policy
Planet's owners and managers are at the dealership every day. The same open door policy we have for our team members we have for you. Whether it's words of praise or advice, we appreciate what you have to say. Click here to email owner Jeff Morrill directly.
Free Car Wash
Advanced Service Knowledge
Real People
If you call during any of the 71 hours per week that we are open, you will speak with a real live person. No automated attendants, no voice mail. We don't even have a receptionist--our sales, parts, and service experts answer your calls, so we resolve the large majority of our calls without even one transfer.
Starbucks can't fix your car...
But Planet has free wireless, gourmet coffee, comfy sofa chairs, a cozy fireplace, guest office space, child playroom, and diaper changing stations. Sometimes people stay even after their cars are serviced and washed! Planet is one of the largest and nicest Subaru dealerships on the planet!
