And it makes it nicer for you.  : Panoramic power sliding-glass moonroof with auto-open/close feature 8-way power adjustable driver's seat with manually adjustable lumbar support Dual-stage heated front seats Automatic climate control system SIRIUS™ satellite radio capability 120-watt 4-speaker audio system with 6-disc in-dash CD changer and MP3/WMA player Auxiliary audio jack for portable media players Perforated leather-wrapped 3-spoke steering wheel, shifter handle and parking-brake handle 4-wheel disc, ventilated front brakes Viscous-type limited-slip rear differential 16-inch 8-spoke aluminum-alloy wheels Heated larger body-color side mirrors with integrated turn signals Windshield wipers de-icer Body-color painted door handles It will run you about $1500-$2000 over the base cost (depending on the dealer and incentives), and at the very least, will fetch you that much more when selling/trading it. Look for some great deals in the next month, as the Christmas Holiday deals roll out!

Hey all, I've been reading some of these postings, and I get the feeling there are some real pros out there. I live in MA, and I'm about to buy a Forester--what do you think a fair price would be for a 2007 Forester X- automatic (standard options)? I get so confused about invoice price, hold-back, fees and other junk and everything else.  Someone help me please!

Replying to: 2007forester (Nov 16, 2006 9:55 pm) 2. Go to subaru.com and get a list of about 10~12 dealers in your area. 3. Send an email to all the dealers requesting price quote for the car and dealer/documentation fee. 4. 2.5X A/T supplies are plenty. Your target price must be $19,000 (including destination) + lowest doc/dealer fee (that you get from dealer quotes) + invoice price on all accessories on the unit. Taxes and title are extra. 5. Send your target price to dealers and take it from there. 6. If possible, try to purchase at end of the month. Dealers will be willing to deal to meet their monthly quotas. Check if the dealer can get you better financing rates. Don't be too rigid about the target price. Buy it from a dealer who is fair and treats you right even if it means paying $200-$300 above your target price. Good Luck! |
