Need to chase down a "Subaru Ambassador"

Steve Carlton · 06-01-2017, 05:59 PM

My niece is leasing a Forester in about a week and my understanding is a Subaru Ambassador sometimes has $500 coupons they can give out towards the purchase or lease of the car. Subaru signs up these folks to help promote the brand and they get some free swag for it. I'm told they're hard to find and you find them on social media, of which I'm a total non-participant. Can anybody put my niece in touch with one?

I would think her uncle could fix her up with a Volvo...

I never heard about this. I just bought an Impreza about a month ago.

I've never heard of this either. But my 2 old Outbacks are getting long in the tooth. Maybe I should donate them and become a "Good Will Ambassador"?

This appears to be a real thing. Apparently she should find Subaru message boards and start asking there. Here's a thread I stumbled on just googling the search term "Subaru Ambassador". https://mnsubaru.com/threads/subaru-ambassador-coupon-anyone-have-one.51538/

Anyone with a Subaru can apply to be a Subaru Ambassador. https://www.subaruambassador.com

tell her to go on Nasioc.com and go to the local area forums.

Ask the same question. She will probably get a subaru branded Vape case or a backwards only subaru hat as well

I found one on NASIOC.com in RI who was super helpful. He has more if someone wants a coupon code. Send me a PM if you want the contact info.

i know like, a dozen. They routinely get swag to give away to people as well. Water bottles, tennis balls for your dog, etc. etc.

If you happen to call Subaru customer service, there is a chance they will mail you something expensive.

I bought an STI a little while ago- called them about Certification- the car came certified with only 2.8K miles, and needed to confirm I was registered.

Out of nowhere I got a BOSE Wave SoundTouch in the mail, from them. I was shocked. It was pretty cool of them, they are definitely on a charm offensive.

PS I love the car, big goofy wing and all. It reminds me of my 911 in many ways.
