A4 â€" Automotive SANTA BARBARA, Calif. « When Subaru brings out a new car you expect it to be high on technology, long on reliability, and always with a loveâ€"it or hateâ€"it styling feature. The new car, in sedan and station wagon forâ€" mat, is called the Impreza. Some of us saw this car two years ago at a distance being tested at Subaru‘s main plant in Ohta, Japan. While a fourâ€"door circulated far out on the test track, Subaru officials made sure we saw them up close going over the thenâ€"new Tovota By JIM ROBINSON Special to the Beaver Subaru fills vord with Impreza Windshield repair absolutely freeÂ¥$ app!

Essentially, Subaru is filling in what it sees as a void in its model lineup. The Loyale is slow, but steady and reliable. The Loyale lineup You can currently buy a Loyale wagon with air conditioning, onâ€"demand fourâ€"wheel drive, even electric remote outside mirrors for around $13,000 depending on how well you haggle. The base Impreza with bare bones interior is going to come in at around $14,000 and escalate up to almost $20,000 for the topline LS Sportwagon. That‘s the kind of money people pay for the Subaru Legacy wagon. going to replace the aging, but respected, Loyale still in production after 15 years, At one time, the Impreza was going to be the new Loyale with the old model being kept on as the Loyale Classic much as Nissan did with the Sentra Classic. Good looking phones deserve a great package. NATIONAL _ Oakvicce ICELLULAR: 828â€"9200 Bell Mobility will be culled to keep a few of these plodders on as Subaru‘s family entry level offering. At the top, some of the Legacy versions will bid Sayonara to be filled in by the Impreza. 1 assume the topâ€"trim Impreza LS will knock off the current bottomâ€"end version of the Legacy. This is not official, but it is probable. If you‘ve ever owned a Loyale or driven one, there‘s no escaping the Volkswagen similarities. All Subarus use the same flat fourâ€" or sixâ€"cylinâ€" der concept and they sound amazingly similar. The Loyale is also, like a Beetle, slow, just able to keep up with today‘s traffic. The new car has a 1.8â€"litre flat four, same displacement as the Loyale; but it is a whole new power plant. Downâ€"sized from big brother Legacy, the new engine uses fourâ€"valves per cylinder to produce 110 hp and 110 torques. It‘s the torques which make the difference here. $ 29 95 (See ‘Subaru‘ page 5) ©‘79991.9" VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH: POWER STEERING, POWER BRAKES, REAR DEFROSTER, FABRIC BUCKET SEATS, FUEL INJECTED ENGINE, DUAL MIRRORS, FACTORY RUSTâ€"PROTECTION, HALOGEN HEADLAMPS, ALL SEASON RADIAL TIRES, FLOOR CONSOLE, MAINTENANCE FREE BATTERY, FACTORY 7 YEAR/115,000 KILOMETER WARRANTY BUILT BY "MITSUBISHIT AND DISTRIBUTED IN CANADA BY CHRYSLER‘S EAGLE DIVISION.

This includes listening to what the customers have to say, speaking to each purchaser personally on a first name basis, and introducing them to the service department. Laurie Stirling was brought in to plan and execute a new and improved customer oriented policy. Customer service is secret to success at Meray Motors In expanding its customer satisâ€" faction policy, Meray Motors has taken the precedentâ€"setting step of hiring a marketing manager, becoming the only Volvo dealerâ€" ship in the country to do so. Meray Motors has also increased its location size over the years, adding various facilities. Starting with 3,600 square feet at the South Service Road location, the dealership first expanded in 1974 by adding a collision service and jig system to rebuild parts. This was followed in 1978 by a paint shop of 4,000 square feet. A body shop was attached in 1980 and later expanded by 6,000 square Meray Motors has, over the years, increased to 27,000 square feet with a 3,000 square foot showâ€" room. feet machines. Mercedes cars, by the way, are still sold by Meray Motors. Meray says he favors Mercedes and Volvos so much "it‘s really hard to know which one I like most." In 1960, the senior Meray added French Renaults to the dealership‘s line, but dropped them three years later and picked up Volvo in March, 1963. & gas. Rebates assigned.

Meray Motors and its Swedish supâ€" plier are convinced that the 850 can do more than hold its own in the sports sedan market. Volvo, in the past, has been the automobile of choice for profesâ€" sionals age 30 and up, but the Volvo 850 represents a combination of markets; it is sporty enough to attract its usual buyer, but it also has family car features which f should rope in young householders.
