Ad said 06 and 07. No 06's listed in Subaru dealer inventory, but they might have one or two. They haven't been selling like hotcakes around here.

23K range for a limited is tempting. 07 or no, 10k buys a lot of premium fuel. A 5 pass limited in the 21k range would get me in a lot of trouble...

2.5 XT Premium - 2007 v 2008 Good price advice by vtkahns

Potentially looking for a Forester.. got it down to the premimum package as what we would like.. the 2007 has 1000 off msrp .. 2008 $500.. but seems to me as if the MSRP is 1100 less on the 2008s.. no brainer ? However.. the financing deals may not apply to the 2008s as it currently does to the 2007s.
 
Saw an advertised 2007 in Maine (I am in Vermon) for $21,100..Seems like quite a deal. Not the color we were after so they are searching around for that and perhaps coming close on the 2008.
 
Anyone offer their experience on the choice upon me ?
 
Thanks

$21.1K for the 07 XT sounds mighty good; is this for a sports or a limited?

This is for the 07 X (oops) with Prem Package.. 5 speed...
 
They have an 08 5SP X w/ Prem Package coming off the boat in the next week for $21,498 so far..with little back and forth.. We thought we wanted Urban Grey which is gone for 08.. replaced with a much darker grey..hate the black car I have now.. impossible to keep clean..I hope the dark grey is easier than that.
 
Is this still a decent aggressive price for the X / PP ?

That's a good offer for the '08... not sure what the factory-to-dealer incentives are on the '08 Premium, but I'd bet at best they could only drop a few hundred dollars... price seems well worth it to go for the '08 vs. '07. Only changes are illuminated driver's side window switches & PZEV badges (which would apply in VT & ME), but you'd get a year's better resale for only a couple hundred bucks up front.
 
And yes, it looks like you can't combine rebates & incentives on the '08s, but get pre-qualified at a local bank or credit union - someone else can probably give you just as good a rate, and you can always use the bank's rate as a bargaining chip with the dealership's finance dept. My dealership's always been able to beat the rates of our very competitive local credit union.
 
Besides the new dark gray, there's also a new Steel Silver Metallic color available on the '08s. The dark gray's nice, but if you hate the black, I'd hold out for this color, which would be very low maintenance:

 
Sounds like you're well on your way to a great deal!

The dealer we were working with said he can do the 4.9 for the 08 (which appears better than my credit union anyway which was in the 6s I think ) .
 
As to the color.. is the Steel Silver the same as last year's crystal Grey metalic ? We did like the urban grey better than the light sliver one.. but from a keeping clean standpoint, realize it's a good choice. The dark one will look dirty constantly I fear..
 
So much to think about.

I have the Steel Grey from 06, which is effectively the Urban grey from 07. It looks great clean and not too bad dirty, but it definitely shows that dirt more then a straight silver would. There's a pic of my color in my profile/photo album.

Anything under 22K is a great deal for a Premium Package. I paid 21,748 for an 07 last Oct. and that was the second best deal I have seen until you two showed up. I have an MT also.
