Replying to: nippononly (May 24, 2009 10:23 am)  I did write a letter to Mazda and they sent me a gift card to purchase some accessories. Write a nice letter to SoA, it can't hurt. One stamp earned me $100 in accessories. Rubber floor mats, a cargo net, and maybe some touch-up paint, most likely. Hint: be nice, tell them you're a returning Subaru customer, kill them with kindness.

Replying to: slickrick1 (Mar 15, 1999 9:42 pm) I bought my OBS in February and have the following options: - rubber floor mats (best for the winters) - mud guard - home link/auto-dimming mirror with compass - bumper cover - center armrest (I used to drove a manual trans so my right arm needs a place to rest) I installed the following (parts bought from the dealer): - fog light protector (I had fog lights hit by rocks in the past) - stainless exhaust extension Like: - overall refinement - style and color – sage green (personal preference) - Subaru’s famous symmetrical AWD - world class safety features - A great car for the money Dislike (the below comments really don’t bother me. All personal preferences): - seat’s fabric - fuel economy (not terrible but could be better) - Subaru’s famous engine noise - no map pocket on the back of the driver seat - small storage up front Plan to add: - tinted back windows Good luck.

Replying to: nippononly (Jun 01, 2009 8:43 pm) I went to the Mazda dealer with mine, and got the run-around. First, they would not accept a 10% coupon for their web site for the accessories because they said you could not combine offers. I thought a gift card was same as cash, so I disagreed with the manager but he would not budge. Then he says I have 2 cards, $50 each, and can only use one per day. Which means I have to go back a 2nd time to his store.  Here I give a Mazda dealer a chance to prove they offer good service and they screw me over left and right. I'm taking the other card to another dealer. In fact I only went ahead with half of my purchase because they had a lower price on some items (higher on others). Every time I give a dealer a chance to do something good, I end up reminding myself of 2 things: 1). I would much, MUCH rather DIY, do it myself 2). When OE parts are needed, I much prefer to order them on-line, save myself the hassle of local dealer parts counters

Replying to: ateixeira (Jun 02, 2009 10:21 am) I felt like writing them back and asking them if they couldn't just find $62 more in the deal to just pay the fees themselves, rather than bothering me. But I want my plates, so I sent the check.

Replying to: ateixeira (Jun 04, 2009 6:58 am) Certainly I'm not expecting any "calls when ready" from my Subaru dealer. I have had more than enough experience of this particular dealer in the past to know to expect very little, especially from service and parts.
