Hassett Had It

The WKJY can is cool, but not the coolest vehicle at Thursday's Subaru Love at First Sight event at Hassett of Wantagh.

Deals, giveaways and a special appearance by a popular Long Island DJ set a festive atmosphere Thursday night, when Hassett of Wantagh hosted its 2010 Subaru Love at First Sight Preview Event.

Hassett, one of the first U.S. dealerships to take delivery of Subaru’s shiny new Legacy and Outback models, pulled out all the stops for the one-night-only showcase. DJ Jim Douglas and the staff of WKJY radio broadcasted live from the event, where enthusiastic customers munched on snacks and enjoyed free beverages and took advantage of special deals and door prizes (the free iPods disappeared as fast as the new models).

Hassett Subaru Manager John Fanuzzi made some new friends Thursday night.

“The Love at First Sight Preview Event was met with a lot of enthusiasm,” said John Fanuzzi, who was milling around the showroom answering questions and assisting the sales staff as numerous buyers took advantage of special prices, exclusive warranties and other Preview Event bonuses. “We’re very happy with the way it turned out.”

The confident and dynamic 2010 Legacy and the rugged and adventurous 2010 Outback were the real stars of the show, but making these attractive vehicles even more desirable was Subaru’s Guaranteed Trade-In Program (ensuring the highest possible trade-in price for older Subarus, plus an additional $500 in Subaru Rewards) and the complimentary two-year maintenance program for all new vehicles purchased during the Love at First Sight event.

Similar deals will be flying Oct. 15, when Hassett of Wantagh hosts its next big premier event – this time spotlighting the 2010 Lincoln MKT. For more on that event and all the great deals at Hassett of Wantagh, check out Hassett’s main website and the exclusive Hassett Highlights blog!

    Subaru’s are cool rides. But can you go 95,000 miles without an oil change, such as certain vintage Saturns?

    Yikes, that’s not recommended in the owner’s manual, I don’t think.
