#1600 of 2746 Anybody has idea why 2008 Forester is cheaper than 2007 by ewu Jul 30, 2007 (4:41 am)
We are interested in a 2007 Forester, it has finance deal now. But I found on edmunds that both the MSRP and invoice price of 2008 model are lower than those of 2007. Not sure if we should go for 2008 instead. Thanks Replies to this message: jeffmc (Jul 30, 2007 5:18 am) ewu (Jul 30, 2007 6:34 am) jeffmc (Jul 30, 2007 9:40 am) and 1 more...

Replying to: ewu (Jul 30, 2007 4:41 am) You must be comparing Premium models. Subaru simply dropped the price on the Premium trim by around $900 for the '08s... invoice for a Premium automatic is $22,726 in '08 and $23,623 in '07. The other trims for '08 are priced similarly from '07. I'd go for the '08 as long as you're getting a good deal on it. You should be able to get invoice minus $500 rebate, minus somewhere in the ballpark of $750-$1200. Say $21k-$21.5k without any options added on.   Are you an Eastern Washington University grad (or are "EWU" your initials)? Have a friend that graduated from there a few years back.

Replying to: jeffmc (Jul 30, 2007 5:18 am) Thank you. I wanna go for 2008. But the dealer give me a pretty good deal on 2007 forester. $21,254 plus tax/doc fee/title/plate/inspection sticker for premium with leather seats/6-cd changer. I am in Masschusetts. This seems pretty good to me. Not sure if it worth to wait several months for 2008.   BTW: I am not from Eastern Washington University, "EWU" is a name the system picked for me.

Replying to: ewu (Jul 30, 2007 6:34 am) No need to wait several months for an '08... they're at the dealerships now. I've seen an '08 Premium automatic advertised for $21.6k.   The CD changer is standard, so should be a non-factor deciding between the '07 or '08. I have no idea what leather aftermarket seats run, so can't really judge how much that adds to the '07's value. Sounds like they're offering about $2400 below invoice (including the $1000 rebate) and throwing in leather seats. It does sound like a good price. With the '07 you'll get the aftermarket leather seats and save about $500 bucks vs the '08. With the '08 you'll get a year's better resale value. It seems to come down to how much you like the leather seats! Replies to this message: ewu (Jul 30, 2007 11:36 am)

Replying to: jeffmc (Jul 30, 2007 9:40 am) Thanks. I will go for 2008 if I can get a good price from dealer, otherwise I will take the 2007 deal.

OK I 've bought my new 2007 Forester. They convince you it is such a great car until they take you in the finance office & try to sell you a warranty. It sort of scares you when they start telling you what can happen. Needless to say what is everyones opinion about ext. warranties. Good idea or what? $1900 for 7 yrs which is really 4 yrs after the 3/36mo. By the way I did not get it. Replies to this message: kavoom (Aug 13, 2007 3:05 am)

Replying to: sistine (Aug 12, 2007 4:25 pm) OWWW, Run away from that. There are dealers that will sell you the Subaru Gold package for thier price and that is roughly half of the "retail." That is a rip. I was going to be able to get a 60 five year for 350 (100 deductible) and that was the Gold package. The retail is like 700. You can do a lot of repairs yourself for 1700. There is a dealer online "Steve Moyer" that does warranties at retail but with a 10% discount and a Suby warranty is a Suby warranty anywhere. AND you don't have to buy now, you have until your factory warranty is out to buy...
