Performance Kings Honda review
Alexandria was knowledgeable, professional and tried to get my service done in a timely manner. My appointment was 7am. However, the technician texted me he was starting the work at 9am. Alexandria was very nice to assure me no one got in front of me. I appreciate the excellent work done by the mechanics but scheduling can be improved. Thank you.
2012 Subaru Forester review
This car was roomy, affordable and had great reviews from my family and friends. 4 cylinder makes it great on gas and I'm hoping like I've heard that it will last for years to come.

Frontier Motors review
My purchase of the green 2008 Bullitt Mustang was a fantastic experience. Gabe and the team were polite and helpful. I recommend Frontier to anyone who is looking for their next car purchase.

Great car for snow and icy conditions. The car is solid. Engine and transmission are solid. Spacious and comfort. Mileage is decent I can get 27 mpg in highway.

Joe, Don, and Sam were all great in helping with our truck buying experience. Everything was simple and they even mailed keys back that were left behind. Would recommend to anyone.
2012 Subaru Forester review
I’m the 3rd owner of a 2012 Subaru Forester purchased at approx 175,000 miles and it still runs pretty good! It does burn oil up pretty quickly and mine has issues with reading the levels and won’t give me a warning light so i check the dip stick often. Mine did have exhaust issues and had to replace a rested out piping from the cat back, but mufflers were still good. Also the Oxygen sensor was a problem for awhile, which you can only use on brand for it to work properly. Gas mileage is decent for the size of the vehicle and its age. Only wish the front seats went back more bc my taller girlfriend who is 5’11 with long legs struggles to fit and be comfortable in the passenger seat.

2012 Subaru Forester review
One of the most comfortable cars I have owned. The things I love best. the reliability of the vehicle, only regular maintenance with higher miles, The huge moon roof, and the simple design of the interior of car. This car is loaded yet has very minimal control buttons which is perfect for me rather than trying to figure out how to operate everything. Best car I have ever owned especially buying used with high miles.
