#1359 of 2724 Re: What to pay for a pre-owned '06? [2gbj] by smittynyc Dec 28, 2006 (10:13 pm)
Replying to: 2gbj (Dec 28, 2006 7:54 pm) With year-end incentives, you could probably get a brand-new 07 for 23K, 24 tops (+ tags and tax), and that's the way I'd go. Heck, if you can somehow track down a new unsold 2006, the heavy incentives on those would bring it pretty close to 20K.   To echo the sentiments often expressed by the great Mathias Steiner in other forums, it doesn't usually make sense to buy a lightly-used Subaru, Honda, Toyota, etc. They don't depreciate enough in the first year or first few years to make it worth your while.   I mean, look what's happening here -- a year-old car with pretty heavy miles is going to fetch just $2500/$3500 less than what it sold for new? That's kind of nuts, imo -- let someone else bite that bullet.   Go new, get 3 years/36000 of warranty, zero miles on the ticker, that nice new-car smell, better resale down the road, etc, etc, etc. Replies to this message: slazenger (Dec 29, 2006 9:08 am)
#1360 of 2724 2007 Forester X, Automatic Quote - Feedback by neprop Dec 29, 2006 (7:33 am)
I've been quoted $18,400 (customer cash, all negotiating etc included) plus $159 Documentation Fee for this vehicle. So out the door it's $18,559. Is this a good deal? Feedback appreciated.

Replying to: slazenger (Dec 29, 2006 8:49 am) I agree completely. That $1500 rebate on the 07 Forester X's is making for some incredible deals.   To put it in perspective, I paid $19500 + TTL for an 04 Forester X auto!
#1363 of 2724 Re: Did you buy extended warrantee for your Subaru ? [lucyliu] by slazenger Dec 29, 2006 (9:04 am)
Replying to: lucyliu (Dec 15, 2006 8:43 am) I bought 100000 mile extended warranty for my 2002 Forester and haven't had a chance to use it yet. I have 92K miles on the car. Other than a heat shield rattle ($30 fix), my car has been trouble free. Since you already get 5year/60K power train warranty, why spend $420 on 2year/24Kmiles bumper to bumper warranty? If you are worried about roadside assistance, you can get a GM motor club membership for $60/year and use their unlimited towing service. AAA towing service sucks unless you get their premium membership.

Replying to: smittynyc (Dec 28, 2006 10:13 pm) I agree. One or two year old car purchase works very well in case of domestic brands or even Hyundai or Kia. For cars that have very good resale value, the savings will be minimal.

#1368 of 2724 Classic Car Buying Situation Works out in end by jefbak Jan 01, 2007 (4:29 pm)
So I ended up getting a 2007 X Premium package Automatice for a $265/mo 24 month 10k/year lease but it took some work. This was in west springfield Mass. First they tried to sell me a base 2007 Tribeca for $349 month but my wife thought it was too big. So we started to look at the Forester. They let us take it home overnight (it only had 1 mile on it). The next day I did not like the lease terms ($316 a month) so we had to get up and literally almost leave before I was asked what price would work and they finally went for the $22500 price. In the end they were very nice and even gave us a loaner since it was a holiday and we couln't complete the purcahse.
