Kendall, eh? I'll have to remember that dealership. Carr's prices are usually unbeatable, from what I've read & heard.

$1600 below invoice before rebates are applied. Impressive. With that high of a factory-to-dealer incentive, Subaru must really want to move some units and make room for the '08s.

Surprised Carr couldn't beat Kendall. Carr and Hannah Subaru both advertise great weekend prices, often below $18k. Last weekends ad Carr was for two 5 speed X's MSRP $22,122 for $16,895.

It was Stevens' Creek.
They didn't give me good price until I showed them that Albany was willing to sell it for cheaper.
so they give $20350 (to beat Albany's $20450).
 
Albany was unhappy since I used their bid to lower Steven's. So the owner of Albany said he felt he was taken advanaged of and he don't want to give me lower price. So I cut the deal with Steven's at 3pm May 30.
 
 At 7:30pm, May 31, Albany contacted me again and offer me $20000 OTD price ($1950 below invoice!). I told him it is too late This guy must be one car short from the big check for meeting monthly target.

Some of these prices are unreal. In 1998 mine cost $19.2k before taxes, and it was a base model MT5.

I never mentioned price because I was shocked how I was initially presented the price. The salesperson brought the invoice to me and said 500 below this and I can have it for that. You buy the car where you feel comfortable i felt comfortable there they really took care of me and i wanted to tell people that. Sorry for those that i have offended with my initial caps lock on. Have a great day!

My apologies to you, sir. Sometimes it's hard to tell real experience from propaganda. Seems I was mistaken. Glad your Subaru-buying experience was so positive and hope you're enjoying your XT... it's a great vehicle.

Subaru Forester - Price at Carlsen Subaru, June 2007 by maria14

Just wanted to let everyone know what I paid for a basic Forester XT, June 2007, at Carlsen in Redwood City, CA:
 
What I bought:
Forester XT, chamapagne color
Automatic transmission
Mud flaps
All-weather rubber mats
Rear rubber bumper guard
Rear plastic cargo tray
Cost: $19,000 (which included the $625 destination charge and a $2K rebate that went to the dealer).
 
I then added on leather seats (front and back) for $1,200. I think the leather is nicer than what comes standard with the LL Bean model. Before I bought seats thru the dealer, I called a car upholstery shop for pricing and they said to get it thru the dealer - cheaper and it would keep the warranty intact.
 
I also did all my shopping on the internet. I e-mailed various dealers and played them off against each other 'can you beat this price?'. Not sure that I got the best price, but at least it was below dealer invoice.
