I have a '08 Limited (w/ VDC) and 23K and I hoping to sell it for $20,000.
Thanks--Charlie
1) The online inventory at the dealers' websites was not well updated. Most of the cars we were interested in were already gone. Inventory of this particular model in the acceptable colors (only Silver or White) was low.
2) Two of the larger-volume dealers mentioned that there was a dealer incentive in December to help achieve a yearly sales target. They wouldn't quantify an amount. There appears to be no such incentive now since the year just started and the model is selling well.
3) When I mentioned I was looking for $500 under invoice to take an in-stock vehicle, two dealers quickly responded with a "no thank you" and the conversation ended. Very different responses from when I priced a 2009 Outback for myself last year!
All that being said, we ended up agreeing to a 2.5i Premium PZEV with the CVT, All Weather Package, Remote Start, and Auto-Dim Mirror w/ Compass and Homelink (MSRP $27485) for the Invoice price of $25744. In addition and after some debate, they threw in All Weather Mats, the Rear Bumper Protector, and Splash Guards (Invoice on these 3 accessories totals $175) at no charge.
Best price (on the surface) was from one dealer ~60 miles away for $327 under invoice, but it had some additional accessories that we didn't want (to pay for) and it didn't have the remote start and homelink which were must-haves. They would have sold us these accessories at cost, but wanted 2 hours of labor ($150) to install them. Once the difference gets <$200, I think it's better to buy locally to take advantage of the free oil changes, inspections, etc that most dealers offer these days. Just my opinion, though.
Not as good of a deal as I was expecting, but got the preferred color (White) with the exact options/accessories that were desired and nothing extra. Hopefully things go well tomorrow with no surprises.
I ended buying from a local dealer for about 3% off sticker. Had to pay for BT listed price at $460. I got BT for my laptop at $10.
Sad, bur life must go on.
All whether package,
all whether floormats,
dimm light with compass and homelink,
mudguards,
moonroof,
and rear bumper cover.
MSRP was 28339, I paid 26100 for it before tax and doc.Dearler also threw in a set of wheel lock.

Any comments?
Are you happy with the price and dealership?
Stock is so low and wait for custom orders so long, that if its the model & spec you want, I say just do it.
I will end up waiting 15 weeks for what I wanted at the best price ..... :sick:
What is the USAA buying program? We are members of USAA but know nothing about it?
Thanks,
You do have to provide your personal info and they will email you the coupon (you or someone in your household can use it).
I've documented a detailed info here (http://www.allthumbsdiy.com/misc-03-buy-a-subaru-with-manufacturer-coupon.html)-
Remember, if you are near Philly, go to the show tomorrow (Sunday) and make your deal on Monday. Subaru's month end quota ends on MONDAY so dealers should be flexible with their discounts (depending on how anxious they are to meet their quota)
Good luck!
Did they show the gullwing concept?
I think you may be referring to the Chevy Stingray? I took some photos of it (check out my site) but unfortunately they did not have the doors open. But one cool, sharp looking car!
I must see it live!
Finally made the deal:

The place to start when negotiating. It takes into account the current dealer incentives and holdbacks that may be in effect.

I would check to see what you would be missing out on by getting the premium versus the limited and decide if you can live without certain features only the limited has. (eg. automatic dual zone climate control, underside cladding......). Money can be saved this way.
Limited does adds more than just leather, though, per cars101.com:
everything the 2.5i Premium has, plus..
new Lineartronic CVT automatic transmission with manual mode (6 'gears') and paddle shifters
Fog Lights
Front underguard
Leather trimmed interior
Passenger power seat (4way), front/back, power recline
Wood grain interior trim (2.5i and Premium have brushed silver trim)
Climate Control, Single/Dual Front Zone, 6 speed fan, settings Lo - 61, 62 .. 89 - Hi
All Weather Pkg: dual mode heated front seats, defrosting outside mirrors, front windshield wiper deicer with hidden element
Harman-Kardan stereo; 9 speakers, 6 disc CD changer, speed sensing auto volume control, aux input; bluetooth, dual-zone climate control

Im ordering one from the dealer for 29,200.00 before tx & lic, I didnt want sunroof or nav.. Just add mirror home link. so it's
Considering how well these are selling, there doesn't appear to be as much need to offer rebates. But historically, March has been the time of year when subaru rebates started.
Bonus - residuals are way up, ALG ranks Forester and Outback #1 in their classes. :shades:
