Shamrock Motors review

Great no stress car buying experience from the beginning

Great no stress car buying experience from the beginning to end. Happy with my experience.

2018 Subaru Forester 2.5i Premium Black Edition review

Great value considering the superior safety features, low

Great value considering the superior safety features, low maintenance and reliability. Rear wheel bearings have been replaced twice and just had the AC compressor and serpentine belt replaced. Albeit expensive repairs, all cars need something after the first 3 years. It's been 8 years and the car still run and drives like new.
