keep in mind that currently Schuman still has distributorship--- and that 5star is still a separate entity- one good thing i can say about Pflueger is that they have deep pockets..... meaning they will probably create a showroom worthy of a Subaru- and from what i heard they are eyeballing a prestigious location near the downtown area... joining the ranks of the higher line automobiles....

but no Kaneohe still means = tEh SuCk!

Deep ockets usually mean, high markups. Hopefully this is not the case like Acura.

That's ok with me.. I got my suby already. I just feel bad for the people who are gonna try and buy one now.

they have some really great salespeople- but their way of doing business still retains some of the "old school" way of selling- high pressure, hold lic. etc.
while they have some high mark-ups(which i am not totally against on some cars)

i work with a few salespeople that came out of their stores- the reason why they left was for management/corporate reasons-

another thing i see coming is a flat out MONOPOLY (imho) i know that 5star is definitely a target now... and word is they will plan to open a subaru store on the windward side-

it is only a matter of time before they do a hostile takeover of distributor-ship.. and become the servco of Subaru....

these statements are simply my educated speculations BTW-

If they'd only be a good company like Servco we'd be ok.

Servco gives a whole bunch back to the community...I should know
