Subaru Sales Manager John Fanuzzi made some new friends at Hassett Automotive's Subaru Love at First Sight event.

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).

“The Love at First Sight Preview Event was met with a lot of enthusiasm,” said Subaru Sales Manager John Fanuzzi, who was milling around the showroom answering questions and assisting the sales staff as multiple 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 keep an eye on the Hassett Highlights blog!

It’s like a Hollywood movie premier! Only it’s not Hollywood, it’s Wantagh. And it’s not a movie, it’s the all-new 2010 Subaru Legacy and 2010 Subaru Outback. And it’s not a premier … but it is a major event.

OK, so, it’s not at all like a Hollywood movie premier. But for driving enthusiasts and anyone looking for a great deal on new wheels, it’s a bona fide blockbuster.

September 24 is the day and Hassett of Wantagh is the place for the 2010 Subaru Love at First Sight Preview Event. Hassett is one of the first U.S. dealerships to take delivery of the shiny new Legacy and Outback models, and it’s pulling out all the stops for a one-night-only showcase filled with amazing cars, spectacular deals and a full slate of family fun.

DJ Jim Douglas and the WKJY staff are slated to emcee an event filled with music, food and fantastic prizes. But no spectacle (in Hollywood or Wantagh) is complete without romance and adventure, so the real stars of this show are the 2010 Legacy and the 2010 Outback.

Confident, dynamic and fun – that sums up the irresistible new Legacy, an Insurance Institute for Highway Safety Top Safety Pick featuring enhanced stopping power, all-wheel drive performance, optional turbocharger for the zippy boxer engine and a spacious, totally redesigned interior. One test drive and you’ll see how thrilling a sedan can be – one look and you’ll fall in love all over again.

Climb behind the wheel of the new Outback and let the adventure begin! A bold new take on Subaru’s most rugged model, the Outback’s symmetrical all-wheel drive, higher ground clearance (8.7 inches), enviable fuel economy (29 MPG highway) and ready-for-anything options (fold-away roof rails, under-floor cargo storage, 12-volt outlets and more) let you tackle any driving challenge. Take it for a spin and you’ll know – the horizon has never been closer.

Making these attractive vehicles even more desirable is Subaru’s Guaranteed Trade-In Program (ensuring the highest possible trade-in price for your old Subaru, plus an additional $500 in Subaru Rewards) and a complimentary two-year maintenance program for all new vehicles purchased during the Love at First Sight event.

The fun and deals are scheduled to run from 5:30 pm to 9 pm at Hassett of Wantagh, located at 3530 Sunrise Highway. See you Thursday, Sept. 24, and remember: When it comes to spectacular romance and adventure, only Hassett Has It!
