BTW, I have done some homework. The originally quoted vehicle had an MSRP of $23,985. The "new" MSRP that they say is sooooo different is $24,041...so why do they want $1000 more for the "second" vehicle. Me thinks I smell a rat. And that rat is Valley Subaru in Longmont Colorado. The second update is that there are at least 2 vehicles matching the original specs within 30 miles of this dealership. Why did they have to transfer one from Silverthorn, over a hundred miles away? Why did not the sales manager, when he spoke to me Saturday not tell me that this vehicle was not identical to the one that I got the quote for??? This is the dealership sales manager. Not some newbie. Liars ALL!!! |

I am very interested in purchasing a 2.5 Limited 2.5x. Edmunds shows an invoice price of 24,330 + 665 for destination= 24,995 invoice. The dealers are saying that there invoice price is about $25,439.00 + gas . So they say they will sell at invoice, the quote is higher. What is the correct invoice price for this vehicle? What are the best quotes people are seeing on this vehicle?

Go to Fitzmall.com and do a search for a new Subaru with your package, that'll give you a good idea of what a good price is. You could even print it out and show the dealer: hey, this is the same car being advertised on the internet for THIS price. Worth a shot, good luck. |

| Just read online that Subaru is reworking the engines for 2009. The regular 2.5 will have 200hp and the turbo possibly up to 300hp. I believe they are supposed to have direcct injection, with no effect on mileage, and will be mated to a 5 speed auto transmission. These will first appear in other models. Probably won't make it into the Forester until 2010 model. Tried to confirm this with a local dealer. The manager told me he is sure of the 5- spd.auto, but doesn't have any info on the engine upgrades. | |

Replying to: sgloon (May 30, 2008 12:06 am) I think the dealer underestimated the popularity of that model. Still, I would have walked just like you did. |

Replying to: phdhusky (Jun 02, 2008 6:52 am) The other dealer wasn't been able to give me the price I was offered at the first dealer. Neither was my local dealer, although, I spoke to them both earlier in the month. This time of the month, they may have more incentive. Today is the last day for the "best deals" so I am told. So I may just call around and see if anyone wants to meet that price today. "How much did they want you to pay for the car with MSRP of 24, 041?" $21,800 which is $1000 more than the "no haggle, no additional fees" that they quoted me for the $23,985 vehicle. They also promised me $100 less if I financed through the Subaru 4.5% price. So, it is really $1100 off their quoted price. Most if not all of the other dealers had quoted better prices than the $21,800 price. I have called the owner of the original dealer and he was interested in learning what was going on at his dealership.

Looks like no new incentives for June. Oh well, 2009 prices are close to 2008 prices as is. Any rebates and they may end up cheaper, and then the last few 2008s would never sell. |
