Were there any other charges beyond the "Internet Price" shown on their site? They seem very cheap, just looking for the catch...

First when driving from Sea World to Universal studios i only saw ONE Subaru on the road. In the paper advertised Costa Mesa were 2004 Foresters (Turbo also) $4488 off MSRP and a $1000 rebate for a total of $5488 off MSRP. On a 2004 Outback LL Bean 3.0 After rebates for $23988 they must be moving 2004 models out the door.

Our family has bought 4 cars there. There is a processing fee of $99 and that's it, you pay tax and tags of course but no surprises. The fee is even advertised on the web site up front.
 
Of course that's why we've been repeat customers there.
 
2004s are a bargain now, but 2005s have significant improvements, so it's a tough choice to make.

Yep, just as it states on the website, the only fee is the 99$ documentation fee, the prices were lowered more from the price which I locked in, but there is no special financing from Subaru at the moment, my deal is still better by about 600$ at 1.9% versus 4.99% current financing. One can get their own financing - capital one offeres 4.6% and Penfed about 3.6%, I think. As for hidden fees, their invoice stated price is about $200 more than the invoice on edmunds.com and includes Baltimore area advertising fee.

They sound straight-up just talking over the phone, it's just that I'm used to treating the dealer as the enemy. Apparently they discount the cars every 2 weeks, so I'll keep an eye on them.

That's how I used to be, now my sales man is someone I consider a friend. He'll look things up for me, fill me in on future product info, call me when a certain model arrives so we can test drive, etc.
 
I've sent him a couple of referrals so it's paid off for both of us, literally.

Nothing wrong with Fitzmall, but I've been able to use their prices as a starting point and been able to beat them pretty easily with two cars now. I purchased a Forester X Auto for around $600 less than their best price, and my fiance just purchased a 2004 Chevrolet Malibu Maxx for a full $1000 (!!!) less than the best offer from Fitzgerald.
 
I'm not bashing them, I'm just saying don't assume you are getting the best deal because they post their 'real' prices on the internet. I had a decent experience up there, but they weren't particulary knowledgeable about what they were selling. If you use their price as a general guide, you should do well.
