Hi Juice:
 
Heritage Subaru has a silver LL Bean w/o Nav, if you're up to a drive to Balawmer (Owings Mill actually). Saw it this morning when I was having my outback serviced - looks pretty nice.

The day I pay for a tank of gas in a new car is the day I don't buy a new car. Hell, my Ody was 3/4 and I made them go fill it up.
 
Cheap b***tards. (Dealers).

I think those have black interiors. She wants platinum leather.
 
I think she's going with blue. The dealer is looking for one and will do a dealer trade.
 
Bob called me with a similar tip.
 
Thanks for keepin' an eye out.

Good luck. I know from following these boards how patiently you've been waiting.
 
Annapolis Subaru is showing a blue LL Bean with gray (not dark gray) interior in their inventory.

Fitz will find it and do a dealer trade.
 
I'm not in a hurry because I want to wait until May 1 just in case any incentives appear. I doubt it, but I'd hate to miss them by a day.

I found Carter Subaru the most arrogant and least helpful of all the dealers I talked with. They also would not quote me a price but merely kept insisting I "come in". They finally said to go somewhere else where someone would have more time to help me-so I did.
 
Here is my deal from a dealer in Portland Oregon
Total Vehicle Price: $ 27,446.00
 
Factory Order Option:
 
2009 Subaru Forester 2.5X Limited (AT) PZEV in Sage Green with Platinum leather interior
                                                                                     MSRP Invoice
2009 Forester 2.5X Limited (incl. Destination) $ 26,195.00
- All weather floor mats
- Auto-dimming mirror/compass with Home Link
- Aero cross bars
- i-pod/phone console tray
- XM Satellite radio kit
- Rear bumper cover
- Puddle light kit
- Hood protector kit
- Wheel arch molding kit
- Security system upgrade (shock sensor)
- Body side molding kit
- Rear spoiler
-PZEV
Total Vehicle Price $ 28,748.00
Invoice $ 26,963.00
 
MY On-Line Price: $ 26,663.00
 
$300 under invoice with no fluff charges of any type, just tax and license. Of course it must be ordered and will be a limited not an LL Bean.
 
PS My deal has now been matched by a dealer in Marysville WA.

Is that through the internet sales at Carter? If so, I'm very surprised. I always get low quotes upfront from them. Sorry your experience was otherwise. They've been very hands-off w/me, maybe that came across as arrogant?
 
Though it's the closest one to my home, I've never been a fan of the Marysville dealer (Roy Robinson)... Subaru is relegated to a small portion of their showroom and the folks I've talked too there haven't seemed to be Subaru "experts". Always felt like they'd much rather sell me a Chevy. If they'll match the price and are more convenient for you, might not be bad. And maybe they've improved since I was last there a couple years ago.
 
Who's the Portland dealer, Carr? Ask kurtamaxxguy (2009 Forester thread) where he bought... think it was Salem, OR. He preferred them to Carr and got a good deal.

Yes, the Internet at Carter. I have friends who bought there and got good deals and I told him that as well but maybe they have more business than they can handle. I was shocked by the attitude and E-mails I received.
I use to live close by and my gal was ignored when she went in to look for a car.
 
Your guess is correct for Portland and I have saved the local chevy/subaru dealer for last as they will probably be my service dept. Another friend has had continued good service on his Forester there.
 
So, do you think $300 under invoice is not good enough on a new model?
I haven't seen anyone come close yet. Had a friend buy one through the Costco program last week for $300 over invoice.

Sounds like a great deal to me! Plus... no sales tax in Oregon. I hate you
