Replying to: sgloon (May 30, 2008 1:06 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 7:52 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. |

Replying to: ateixeira (Jun 02, 2008 1:09 pm) how do you know if subaru will have June incentives yet? The subaru guy I spoke to today said today (June 2) was the effective "last day of the month". And the 4.5% rate is good through today as well. So I assumed the new deals won't be out yet. Where were you looking? thx

Replying to: phdhusky (Jun 02, 2008 2:21 pm) "Do you know what the dealer doc/convienance fee is around your area?" I think it is about $50. I have never actually queried about it, but heard someone mention that number one time. I always ask for the total cost of the vehicle plus taxes only. I don't allow them to add on any dealer handling fees either, or, if they do, it is wrapped into the price that they are quoting me. It is the only way I can effectively compare prices from different dealers. So the 20,800 was a plus tax only price. There are 13 Subaru dealers in my area, so it is pretty competetive here on the prices.  We also have the dealer who sells more Subaru's than any other dealer in the country here. So, I guess the volume of Subaru's in this area helps with the prices.

Replying to: phdhusky (Jun 02, 2008 5:21 pm) I did ask the dealer I spoke with today, and they said everything was wrapped into the cost for them except $17.20 for the filing fee. Then I have to pay $7.20 title fee for my county. And of course taxes and registration. 6.7% taxes in my town and approximately $500+ for registration. |
