Subaru of Keene

ATTENTION CANADIAN BUYERS

Subaru of Keene is YOUR import specialist.

Importing your Subaru from Subaru of Keene is fast, simple, and $$ rewarding.

At Subaru of Keene, New Hampshire, we've made importing a new or used Subaru from the U.S. to Canada simple and convenient. On average, our Canadian customers save thousands of $$ - often between 20 - 40% (even after fees, GST/PST taxes and other costs) and our step-by-step process could save you even more. We handle all of your import paperwork - it's that simple! New Hampshire is also a sales tax free state. CALL 603-355-5000 x 115 and ask to speak to Mark Carey, our export specialist, or email him at mcarey@fentonautosales.com with your questions or requests.

UPDATE: It seems the Canadian dollar is tied to the price of oil - and both are dropping. This is causing some potential Canadian customer to "rethink" importing a Subaru. Even with the drop of the Canadian dollar, you'll still save. It just means you will save slightly less than before. Instead of saving 30%, you might now save 24%. That STILL buys a LOT of gas and is worth the trip to Subaru of Keene.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:
	What Subaru vehicles meet import guidelines? UPDATE: All 2009 Subarus meet Transport Canada's List of Approved Vehicles Admissible from the United States. Also, all 2008 Tribecas, Outbacks, Legacys, Imprezas, and Forester XTs contain the required Immobilizer Key. No additional maintenance modifications are required. Subaru of Keene stands ready to help you import your Subaru.
	What fees do I have to pay and how much savings can I expect? A summary of taxes and fees required are discussed here. Use the handy savings calculator below to help you determine the final cost (and savings) of the vehicle you wish to buy after import and registration costs. It will automatically factor in today's current exchange rate, duties, fees, and taxes.* Compare the results with your local costs and see why importing your Subaru from Subaru of Keene makes sense.
	Before running the calculator, be aware that: Canada levies a $100.00 "air conditioning fee" on all imported cars with air conditioners. The same 5% GST and Provincial PST you would be expected to pay when purchasing/registering a vehicle purchased in Canada would be paid on your imported vehicle, only you will be paying based on the U.S. purchase price, not the Canadian price - a significant savings! Duty fees. There are no duties under NAFTA (North American Free Trade Agreement) on U.S. built Legacy, Outback, and Tribeca models because they are built in Lafayette, Indiana. Duties of 6.1% are required on Impreza and Forester models because they are built outside North America. Again, the savings on these popular models far outweigh the added duty. * Note: These are 3^rd party tools and we are not responsible for their accuracy. Always check with local sources to verify costs. Use Ontario for Quebec. The New Brunswick calculator is off. Total GST and PST is 13%.
	Are there any "hidden" fees? NO. The final price Mark Carey quotes will be the drive-away cost. Also, there is no sales tax in the State of New Hampshire and Subaru of Keene will provide you with a FREE 20 day temporary license plate to allow ample time for you to return home. You even get a full tank of gas!
	Am I eligible for U.S. factory rebates and incentives? Effective January 3, 2008 Subaru of America does not permit Canadian customers to take advantage of U.S. rebates and incentives, however, your savings are so significant you will still benefit from purchasing your Subaru from Subaru of Keene. You can save even more with a quality, low-mileage used Subaru. Subaru of Keene has a large selection of these as well.
	Can you provide financing? We are unable to finance cars being imported into Canada. Many of our Canadian customers are either self-financed or seek financing through Canadian financial institutions. This would be similar to finding your own financing for a vehicle purchased in Canada. We provide your lending institution with the VIN number and any other important information they may need. When the vehicle is picked up payment is due in full by a certified bank draft (in U.S. dollars) or by wire transfer.
	Can I trade in my vehicle? Unfortunately, issues with vehicle titles do not permit us to accept international trade-ins. Most of our Canadian customers sell their cars locally and then purchase their new Subaru from Subaru of Keene.
	How does the warranty work? Subaru of America has reciprocity with Canadian Subaru dealers for warranty work. Your car may either be returned to the U.S. for warranty repairs or the owner can have the car repaired by a Subaru dealer in Canada, pay for it in full, and submit the bill to Subaru of America for reimbursement (in U.S. dollars). Repayment takes about two weeks. Subaru of Keene also offers a bumper to bumper extended warranty plan after your Subaru Warranty expires that pays your local mechanic directly. This is ideal for those customers who plan to hold on to their Subaru for an extended period of time. "Mark, I was getting conflicting information here in Canada about warranty work so I called Subaru of America at 1-800-SUBARU3. They confirmed everything you said on your website about how the warranty would work and even suggested I call the local Subaru Service Manager (not sales person) to verify that they would do the work. I called the Service Manager and he again confirmed that they would do any warranty work on the car and that Subaru of America would reimburse me." - Sarah K.
	What paperwork is required to cross back into Canada? That's our job. We will prepare and provide you with all the necessary paperwork to complete the transaction at the border. Contact us for a complete list of required documents.
	Which border crossing should I use? Click here for a list of U.S.- Canada border crossing points. Be aware that the paperwork we prepare MUST arrive at the border crossing of your choice and be logged in at least three business days before you cross. Again, we take care of that for you.
	Do I need a passport to cross the border? Thousands of Canadians cross into the U.S. daily for business, commerce, or vacation. The Canada Border Services Agency lists the options for documents you will need to visit the U.S.
	If we come down the night before, where do we stay? Not to worry. We have arranged special rates for our Canadian customers at a local hotel that offers a full, hot breakfast, athletic facilities, and a large swimming pool. Ask Mark for details and pricing.
	Where can I get more information? The BEST site to obtain up-to-date information is directly from the Canadian Government - Canadian Registrar of Imported Vehicles, an entire organization created to assist Canadians in importing cars back into Canada. When we have questions, we call the RIV directly at 1-888-848-8240. They are very helpful.
	How do I get started? Start shopping now, then CALL 603-355-5000 x 115 and ask to speak to Mark Carey, our import specialist, or email him at mcarey@fentonautosales.com with your questions.

Hi Mark,

Would it be possible to have am item delivered to you at the dealership and then I would pick it up when I get the Tribeca? My wife wants to order some clothes online from Pendleton . They will not deliver to Canada and we do not have a US address to sent it to. It's an odd request but if you could help that would be great.

Doug

Mark's reply - "Go for it :) "

Dear Mr. Perry,

"No words that can describe my experience with Subaru of Keene. As you know, I purchased a 2009 Subaru Forester and when I came down to pick it up, I happened to sit in a 2008 Tribeca in the showroom. I knew in my heart that I HAD to have that Tribeca. (This was 30 minutes before closing.) Your entire organization jumped into action. The Finance Manager and Mark Carey came in on their days off, recalled the Forester paperwork from the border, generated new paperwork, arranged financing for the price difference, prepared the car, and had me out the door the next morning to continue my vacation in the States.

"I will never forget the outstanding service I received from Subaru of Keene. I want to personally commend Mark Carey, your export specialist, for his work with me by phone, e-mail, and in person. He was professional, knowledgeable, and trustworthy. In fact, that really describes your entire organization. I will not hesitate to recommend Subaru of Keene to my friends and family. Thank you for making this the best buying experience ever."
