#2025 of 2743 Re: Took Delivery [mole7374] by phdhusky Jun 11, 2008 (11:43 am)
Replying to: mole7374 (Jun 11, 2008 9:28 am) VIP pricing is for ppl who work for companies that are part of the program and usually receive 2% below invoice from dealers who are part of the program. In most cases, and in mine, i was able to negotiate 2% below invoice if not a little more with just some good old bargaining. Of course it's not as easy but you can still do it.   Subaru bucks comes from using the Subaru Chase card and you earn 3% from your purchases up to 500 a year toward other purchases, service, etc.

Replying to: sgloon (Jun 11, 2008 9:56 am) Thanks.   We got our Chase Subaru credit card about 2 years after we bought our 2002 Legacy.   Prior to that we had a Toys-R-Us card and used the credits to buy diapers!   The kids got out of diapers, so we got the Subaru one, and have accumulated $2000 so far. $100 was spent on accessories and $300 in the body shop, though we cashed out because insurance paid us.   I recommend it, if it fits your needs. You earn 3% back, limited to $500 per year, and the best part is you don't have to buy a new Subaru to use them. You can ue it for CPO Subarus, parts, accessories, mechanical repairs, service, even body shop repairs. They're not hard to spend. The trick is saving them up!   http://www.firstusa.com/cgi-bin/webcgi/webserve.cgi?partner_dir_name=subaru&page- =cont&mkid=60MN&msc=Z0003088
#2027 of 2743 Buying via Fleet Dealer by packrfan Jun 12, 2008 (3:45 pm)
Does anyone have any experience, pro's or con's of buying through a fleet dealer. I'm told they can buy single vehicles at fleet pricing, or arrange for a dealer to see directly to consumer if leasing or financing through the dealer, at prices lower than the consumer can negotiate. I don't see a downside to this, as long as my net cost is lower. Any thoughts?
#2028 of 2743 First Subaru by djmacedonas Jun 12, 2008 (7:26 pm)
Just picked up a Limited...Dark Grey w/platinum leather interior...Somerset Subaru, NJ.   09' Forester X Limited PZEV Not sure of the other options (auto dim mirror, methinks) Definitely had the rear bumper cover Dealer added crossbars, no charge.   $25500 total   Seems a bit high after visiting here, but same as what other dealers quoted...after bargaining.   Oh...my first Subie,   And Bill, the manager there, worked with me for over 2 months... and never pressured. Excellent sales manager.

#2030 of 2743 Congrats by ateixeira Jun 15, 2008 (6:42 am)
To both of you.   I didn't get the auto dim mirror, and those aren't cheap, so it makes sense that yours would cost a little more.   I also did not get crossbars.
#2031 of 2743 No autodim mirror by djmacedonas Jun 15, 2008 (3:43 pm)
Actually,   I went back to the dealership on Friday. No autodim mirror. Included mudflaps, luggage cover, and aero crossbars and all weather car mats. I'm calling him tomorrow to add:   The door trim (to protect) The cargo tray (I think its useful) May add the autodim mirror. It's hard to justify almost $200 bucks for a mirror (I can always just use my own garage door opener, and the GPS navigation unit I have has a pretty good compass.   I'll ask for what price he can add those things.   djm

#2033 of 2743 My Updated Deal by mole7374 Jun 16, 2008 (2:50 am)
Hey Everyone! I shopped around and went to Liberty Subaru in Oradell, NJ and got the best deal I've seen around. Got the 09' X Limited, PZEV, White with Mud Flaps and Rear Bumper Cover   They sold me the car for $25,000 even... then add in the price of the flaps/bump cover (not sure but that's like another 150 bucks or something.   Net out.. I leased the car for 36 months, 12K miles a year, 790 out of pocket, 370 a month.
#2034 of 2743 Congrats by ateixeira Jun 18, 2008 (7:24 am)
To both of you.   We have a Ltd model as well. The Beans are all gone, I suppose.   We're all lucky because these models are hard to find. I special ordered mine, and even when I took delivery my dealer did not have a single Bean or Limited in stock (and they have 2 locations!).
