Could the dealer have made it up on the trade-in? From my research the dealer holdback ranges from $636 to $834.

I'm not quite sure how the dealership made their money on the deal. I did not have a trade in. Holdback should have been 3%. Maybe there is additional manufacturer to dealer support. Before I bought my Forester, I received quotes from several dealers around Denver. Not all the quotes were below invoice. However, Three of the dealers had the same price quote of $600 below invoice. I went with Flatirons Imports in Boulder, because they did not charge a dealer handling fee.

Just wondering if 22,500 is good for a baseline premium with splash gaurds, read bumper cover and all weather floor mats. Think I can do better?
 
Thanks

I don't know how many dealers there are in Denver, but from your post there clearly are more than three. In Austin, we had two dealers plus one brand-new one, now we have lost one of the older ones, so ... good ol' competition must've had something to do with it! You got a great deal.
 
I have no experience with fitzmall.com, but checking their prices today, it looks like they are doing $200 over invoice on '09 Foresters.

So- I have been emailing and talking to some folks over the past couple of days.
 
Best offer in Austin, TX so far is $300 under invoice for an instock base X manual. I have one dealer in Houston quoting me what works out to be $510 under invoice- again, for an instock base X. No extra charges other than TT&L. No mention of trade in.
 
Best "generic" quote I found in Austin is at invoice and accessories at cost.
 
Main problem so far, haven't found the color I am looking for, and the ones I got quoted on have about $700- $800 of accessories which I don't much care for. Plus the dealer I would like to do business with in Austin is coming in 1% above invoice.
 
Hoping to wrap this up in the next couple of weeks.
 
Does anybody think Subaru might offer a rebate in June?

I'm wondering about a rebate in June, too. Seems like there are a fair number of '09 X and X Premiums available (at least here in Austin), so we might see some kind of new incentive on those models if there's a glut of them regionally or nationally. Fitzgerald has dropped their prices to about 500 below invoice for those models, which is encouraging.
 
Which dealership is quoting you 300 under invoice? That's a better price than I would have expected locally.

"Find me a Newport Blue Pearl LL Bean sans NAV, preferably PZEV model, and we'll talk."
 
For the heck of it, I checked the 21 nearest dealers to me in WA & OR... only 1 blue Beaner left ( ) & it's got NAV. Most of the small dealers didn't have any Beans at all. Good luck finding one in NE, juice. Order the Limited already!

With the new Forester selling at nearly 50% greater rate April '09 vs. April '08, I'd be surprised if things cooled dramatically in May. I bet Subaru will wait 'til sales show signs of slowing.
