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.

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.

No autodim mirror by djmacedonas

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.

I was quoted $25271 for 2009 Subaru Forester Ltd in spark silver with Popular Equipment Grp 4-A, #F9I: auto dimming mirror, compass, Puddle Lights and Luggage compartment cover, #O9A. I have to pay Va tax 3%, tag & title fee $93, processing fee is $99, and out-the-door price is $26224.10 . I did not get the auto dimming mirror with Homelink ( my garage opener will do the job:)

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.

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!).

Our dealer has 20+ orders waiting to be filled. Few Premiums around. I still haven't even seen a Bean or a Limited and was told its probably a two-month wait for one. Someone at SOA told me that they couldn't find enough available boats to ship all the Foresters over to the US, but it also looks like people want Limiteds and the initial production is mostly Xs. In any case I am waiting for a phone call from our dealer to let me know what they get delivery of a Limited so we can see one. But they are all sold and can't go for test drive.

Production allocations for the year were supposed to be 26% X, 45% Premium, 20% Bean/Limited, 3% XT, 6% XT Limited. I think demand for the Bean/Limited simply caught them by surprise.

Sounds like about 50% of us wanted the Bean/Limited model, actually!
