I only got charged a $45 doc fee (for processing my license stuff) - what's the $239 fee supposed to be for, exactly? You might be able to negotiate a smaller fee as part of your deal - ask them to break down what it's for, then divide and conquer!

They agreed to waive the "processing fee", to put it bluntly, just the kind of ream job that some dealers try to pull. Pays to be an educated consumer so that you can negotiate around the baloney.
 
Anybody remember the "added dealer markup" days?

Just Bought Forester X Premium Auto in Austin, TX by nyjelj

After a lot of research, test drives, phone calls and emails, I finally got a 2006 Forester X Premium auto in Steel Gray Metallic, with popular equip group 5A (auto dim mirror, homelink, compass, shock sensor), rear bumper guard, and cargo tray for $22,700 plus TT&L. Though Edmunds internet quote service got the ball rolling, I had to email the dealers in my area directly with specifics to actually get an quote, but then they all started bidding against each other, resulting in what I believe is reasonable price ($1000 less than TMV for my area). My dealer beat my bank financing rate, and met the trade-in quote from CarMax.
 
We love our new car, and though I was tempted by the power of the XT, the X has plenty to offer, and I don't have to feel guilty or worried about gas consumption. I keep finding excuses to drive it, offering to run errands for friends and family.
 
Big up to Edmunds, and http://www.carbuyingtips.com/ for massive help.

Last day of the Subaru incentives. In your experience cdo you expect it to get extended or offered again? I just couldn't buy a Forester at the moment due to some personal issues. I'm hoping they will offer this again when the 2007's come out. What do you think?
 
Also, does anyone know the amount of the factory to dealer incentive for a 2006 Forester x Premium?

Bought a Forester X 5MT Steel Grey last night. $20550 less the rebate got us to $18550 + TTL. Well below invoice before rebate; I have NO complaints about that deal . From Carter in Seattle. This seems consistant with the earlier post about a X automatic for $19.1K from the same dealer. Judging by how many I've seen out on the roads with no plates lately, I'd say the incentives are working for blowing out inventory.

They had the $2000 rebate a year ago, then took it away when enough X's sold.

I bet they'll continue the $1000 on the upper models, but I'm not sure if they'll keep offering $2k on the X. That was a sweet deal.
 
In March, the Forester actually outsold the Outback, and became the #1 selling model.

Looks like everything is the same for April, at least in New England...the Tribeca now has customer incentives also.

Yep, a couple of them at Fitz dropped in price by about $800.
 
For the Forester, is it still only $1k on the non-X models?
