Don't Forget! August 7-10, 2008 Join Us For Shakespeare!

Please don't forget to join Premier Subaru, who is a supporting sponsor, of "Much Ado About Nothing" which is being put on at the Guilford Green from August 7-10, 2008. This is an exciting and outstanding performance! Below is the official announcement of this tremendous event!

Shakespeare on the Shoreline: The Shoreline Arts Alliance is pleased to be bringing the CT Free Shakespeare company back to the Guilford Green on August 7 - 10. This summer's William Shakespeare play is Much Ado About Nothing, a romantic comedy complete with music and set in the 1970's. The story is loaded with mismatched lovers, squabbling brothers, a verbally challenged constable and "battle of the sexes." The Watergate Scandal provides a perfect backdrop for this story of mistaken identiy, deception, and trickery. Curtain is at 7:30pm each evening and as is customary with this theatre company, there will be a living intermission each night where the actors come off the stage to mingle with and entertain the audience. Bring family and friends, blankets and chairs and picnic dinners (concession also available) to our 7th summer of presenting 'theatre under the stars' on the beautiful Guilford Green.

Another Successful Blood Drive on July 17, 2008- Thank You To All Of The Donors!

Premier Subaru would like to thank all of the donors who gave blood during our latest blood drive on July 17, 2008. According to the American Red Cross, blood supply was at a critical low during this period, as such, we were happy to provide the facility, volunteers (thanks to Gino Diaz our Facility Manager) and even some donors, including myself!

FHI Showcases its Subaru Plug-in STELLA Concept, a New Prototype Electric Vehicle, at the G8 Hokkaido Toyako Summit

Fuji Heavy Industries Ltd. (FHI), the maker of Subaru automobiles, today announced the successful development of its Subaru Plug-in STELLA Concept model, a prototype electric vehicle (EV). FHI will provide five units of the Plug-in STELLA Concept for use at the Hokkaido Toyako Summit to be held July 7 through 9, 2008.

Four of the five will be used to transport government officials and other participants at the summit, while one vehicle will be displayed at the Environmental Showcase,
an exhibition and demonstration area in the International Media Center, and it will also be available for test drives.

In addition, FHI will provide one STELLA Concept model to the Japan Post group for use in mail collection and delivery in the vicinity of Toyako during the summit.

The Subaru Plug-in STELLA Concept combines the EV system employed in the R1e, (which recently debuted in the U.S. at the New York International Auto Show), with the mini car, Subaru STELLA. The resulting vehicle represents an optimized model that features STELLA’s compact packaging and superb utility.

FHI plans to use the Plug-in STELLA Concept in the development and test-marketing of the next generation of EV in Japan in the near future.

FHI jointly developed the Subaru R1e with Tokyo Electric Power Co., Inc. (TEPCO), a leading utility in Japan, and the vehicle’s performance has been tested since June 2006. 40 units of the R1e model, equipped with lithium ion (Li-ion) batteries, have been used by TEPCO as part of its corporate fleet and by the Kanagawa Prefectural Government, providing performance results that further advance FHI’s EV development work. Such data collected under real-world conditions has helped FHI refine the concept of the next-generation EV and make further improvements in convenience and comfort under everyday driving situations.
FHI has placed emphasis on its mission to pursue the perfect integration of a pleasant and reliable driving with environmental considerations. While seamlessly improving the power units design and introducing such cleaner engines as the Horizontally-Opposed diesel engine in Europe (available since March 2008), the company has positioned EVs as another viable solution for environmental preservation, and it plans to accelerate its EV development work
