Hello everyone and I hope that you are having a very nice day. Does anyone know how Heuberger Motors in Colorado Springs is able to offer the Forrester for below $1000.00 of the invoice inclusive of all dealer fees. I have Googled complaints about Heuberger and have found nothing negative and only great feedback. Dealers here in Boise are asking for $500.00 over invoice with no negotiation plus their doc fess which are $299.00. Are these doc fees legitimate? With appreciation and kind regards, Brandon

Replying to: bobfox3 (Aug 23, 2008 11:15 pm) When you say bid below invoice do you mean subaru's invoice price of say the forester 2.5x Limited which is 24,330 +the 665 delivery fee? or do you mean the invoice price that is listed on the window sticker? I've been negotiating with a couple dealers and one went pretty low but I'm not sure if it was low if it wasn't lower than subaru's invoice price... Please let me know what you mean by invoice price. Thank you!

I'm sure they're listed on SOA's web site but the International Mountain Bike Association and the International Canoe Association are two that I know of. There is a catch though, you usually have to be a member for at least 6 months in order to qualify. -Frank |

However, contrary to what the dealer will tell you, those fees are negotiable but it won't be easy to get them to budge on them. -Frank |

Replying to: bpraxis (Aug 24, 2008 1:16 pm) I bought my car from Heuberger and had less than pleasant experience. I have finally (just last week) gotten all my keys/fobs/tools (and working with my car) and am just awaiting a check for reimbursement for the programming of the keys. If I get the check this week, the entire process will have taken 10 weeks. See my post at: Message #2154 and look at Message 2157 as well. Heuberger is able to sell the cars for a lower price as they are the largest Subaru dealer in the country... ie they sell the most. Thus, they get the cars from Subaru at a lower price than those dealers who sell a lot less... They also ship the cars not only all over the country, but to Canada as well. They definitely had the best prices that I found. And if I didn't have the major hassles with the keys/tools/fobs/manual/detailing, it definitely would have been worth it... As it is, I don't think it was worth the ordeal I went through for a car I paid $23k for...I expected a lot more. I think I would have tried harder to get my local dealer to come down to their price. I didn't think it would have made a difference, as the car was being delivered to me at no additional charge. Good luck with your car purchase. I hope you have a wonderful experience where ever you decide to buy! |
