    I have a true Love for Subaru.  Subaru creates vehicles that are all about Safety, Confidence in Motion and "Go-Anywhere" type vehicles that no other manufacture makes. They manufacture them in zero landfill plants and partner with others to help make the world a better place.  I have a true love for outdoor activities and have a 2010 Outback that I purchased before... I started here.  There are 7 Subies in the family (2 Outbacks, 2 Foresters, 1 Outback Sport, the new Impreza Sport and a Baja).  My customers are THE most important thing, you'll see their pictures on my walls here at the dealership as well as their testimonials on the Subaruofmemphis website.  I grew up and attented EMC in Montana, Lived in Colorado, California and Utah. 

    You can find me at our community events like the Memphis Farmers Market, The Tour de Cure, Shelby Farms events and on a bike somewhere...
    My number one goal here is to make sure you have the right Subaru for you and have a great experience here at Jim Keras Subaru!
